Joel Comm's Socrates WordPress Theme Makes Internet Marketing a Breeze

I have been blogging on this blog (Blogger.com)
for more than 5 years now.

Recently I started developing a WordPress blog for a social
media marketing site. I became very frustrated at times
trying to find the right themes that required minimum
effort on my part to customize the site to suit
my specific requirements.

Then there was the issue of finding the right plug-ins
to enable me to add monetization.

Joel Comm has now solved the problem for me with his
new Socrates WordPress theme (affiliate link):
http://socrates.squidooroo.com

Both my JV partner (a WordPress expert) and I have
just bought the Socrates Theme.

You can vary the headers, color & plug-ins
and it is designed to take Adsense and Clickbank
and other forms of advertising.

A really cool feature is the Social Media Slider
that makes it easy (and more likely) for readers
to promote your blog for you on the various social
media sites (that you nominate).

When you purchase Socrates you automatically get
the upgrades that are being designed for Socrates 2.

Joel Comm (Adsense expert and highly successful
Mobile Phone App creator) provides quality products
and software. The testimonials on the site
attest to this (as do those on the secret member's
blog where people rave about the support service).

The Socrates theme is purpose-built for Internet
marketers and was created by an elite marketer.

Check out the video now that explains how to
set-up an SEO optimized blog in minutes with
a point-and-click tchnology.

http://socrates.squidooroo.com

Here's some of the features:

- Custom Header Design System
- 160 + Niche Headers
- 1000’s of Design Combinations
- Built in Clickbank Monetization
- Built in Social Media Slider
- Wordpress Tutorials and Training
- Internet Marketing Training videos
- Integrated Affiliate Links for Theme earn 50%

With Socrates, not only can you control all the
links on the primary navigation bar, but there are
also three optional navigation bars -
at the top right, bottom left and bottom right.

There’s an optional “Ad Bar” which allows users
to insert a 728X90 Ad Unit above their content,
and lets them enter a Clickbank ID to rotate two
Clickbank products on the top right.

There is also a “custom html” section in the
upper right where more ad units, optin boxes,
or any html code can be added.

It's even better... in this same space there are
some social icons for Facebook, Twitter, and
your RSS Feed.

- Choose From 50+ Backgrounds or Upload Your Own

The Socrates Theme comes preloaded with
50+ backgrounds to suit your own personal style.

- Create Custom Headers On The Fly!

Over 160 Niche header designs which you can
instantly insert into your theme and brand with
your site title and description.

- Multiple Layout Design

You have the ability to choose left sidebar,
right sidebar, and split sidebar designs with
either 150px width or 300px width.

This is just the beginning of Socrates. There
are even more features coming in the next version.

Here's an example of how I have used the
Socrates WordPress Theme:

Facebook Explodes Marketing Potential

There are three very important trends you need to be
aware of with respect to Facebook.

1. Facebook traffic exceeded that of Google in March 2010

"Social networking website Facebook has capped a year
of phenomenal growth by overtaking Google’s popularity
among US internet users, with industry data showing
it has scored more visits on its home page than the
search engine."

from ft.com

2. Facebook ads - cheaper and more targeted than
Google Adwords

Google recently unilateraly dumped 1500 Google
Adwords advertiser, so there is a bit of a backlash
against Google. Many Internet marketers are swinging to
Facebook Ads because they are currently cheaper and
more targeted (e.g women aged between 30 and 40
interested in scrapbooking who live in Bristol).

Here's a free resource that gives you a
Facebook Ads 101 course.

3. Facebook Social Plug-Ins - Going Viral

There is a new series of social plugins that feed
Facebook's viral marketing. Now if Mary expresses a
liking for your blog post, Facebook tells her friends
and if one of them say they like it too, FB tells
their friends ...and so it goes on virally.

These social plugins feed off this new feature of
Facebook. Check them out here and explode your traffic:

Ken McArthur gets to interview Seth Godin re how small actions can have great effects. When I listen to this interview I am reminded of Seth's book, Tribes, and Richard Teare, the leader of a new tribe, GULL (Global University of Lifelong Learning), that is having far reaching effects for people who are disadvantaged in the world.

There are many barriers that create a ceiling on your online income
whether you are earning $100 a month or $1,000 (or more) per

********************************************

This podcast is one of many 4-5 minute podcasts that will be
available in my SquidooRoo.com site - a Learning Center
for Social Media Marketing.  These brief podcasts are
highly focused, motivational and actionable.

The membership site will also have other longer podcasts,
videos, articles and e-books - all designed to help you
to become more effective with social media marketing.

SquidooRoo.com will be action learning based - learning
through taking action and reflecting on the outcomes, intended
and unintended.  Another feature will be ongoing encouragement
to share what worked and what did not work with others
in the learning community.

I plan to publish the site in late May 2010 and anticipate
that the price for my existing Squidoo Marketing Strategies
(SMS) ezine subscribers will be around the price
of a Cappuccino per month ($5 per month).
