Twitter TV Special: 100 million telephone votes proves the extraordinary traffic attraction power of ‘American Idol’

STOP PRESS NOTICE: Congratulations to KRIS ALLEN on winning AMERICAN IDOL!

4 Minute TV Special outlines the secret of how American Idol works, and how you can use the same approach to accelerate your own online business.

The bottom line is that within all the hoopla, competition and the nail-biting finish, a key marketing lesson has been revealed:  When an audience is given the power to vote for a winner, and make someone FAMOUS, they will take part in huge numbers.

Here’s the deal:  In this TV program I reveal how to make your business famous online by attracting votes in the form of incoming LINKS.

The way your own internet marketing ‘audience’ can vote for your products or service is by placing links to your website in large numbers. Google then sees these as ‘popularity votes’ for your web site, and lifts the site further up the search results, often onto the front page.

This TV program reinforces the vital importance of links, and how they work as ‘votes’ for your web site.
