I have been interested in Twitter for awhile, and have finally come across some add-ons that make it function at the speed that I thought it should, i.e. the speed of thought…
Seriously though, Twitter Bar , as well as Shareaholic makes twittering so easy, it’s finally fun. Before these tools, I would often think of Twittering something, only to feel reluctant to stop what Iwas doing, and go over to the Twitter site( lazy, I know).
Luckily now there’s Twitter Bar to the rescue.
Twitter bar - enables Twitter posting from the address bar of your browser.
“What does this mean?”
By simply hovering over a tiny grey icon in your address bar, it turns into a green plus sign and tells you how many characters you have left for your post, including the link of the URL of the page you are on.
The use of social media brings a whole new level of personality to marketing online.
From a SEO standpoint, the more backlinks the merrier.

There are many home based business opportunities on the web.
After years of wondering how I could reach my income goals with an internet business I found a real network marketing opportunity that works.
What I found was a network marketing community dedicated to web domination.
“What is Web Domination?”
The concept of web domination is really cool, and it can be accomplished when a group of trained people come together to promote the heck out of a bunch of related sites.
An example of internet search engine optimization success is when you type in a search term and one of your sites shows up on the first page of Google.
Web domination is when the first page of Google search term results are all different but related sites for the same opportunity.
This is how we are leveraging the power of the masses in Occupy the City.
The Benefits of a Group:
As a lone internet marketer you are left on your own to promote your sites and blogs, to get traffic, to generate sales.
Within Occupy the City we are helping each other promote our individual sites, as well as working on promoting articles from our family of websites professionally designed to capture leads and create enrollments.
This synergy of the masses is what will result in the web domination that I mentioned earlier.

Without a visible crisis it is often difficult to carry through on ideas to the final stage of accomplishment. Embarking on any new action involves a change in our behavior. There is a certain amount of effort required to make lasting changes in our life. It’s easy to get clever in creating ways to avoid taking the necessary actions that will bring us to our desired goal.
Coming out of the Comfort Zone
We feel comfort when we deal only with the things that we know how to do. It is scary to put out the level of effort needed to deal with difficult problems where the steps are not clear and the risk of failure is high.
We are often willing to settle for less than we are capable of achieving just to avoid the fear of failure.
“We all want abundant lives, so why are we not experiencing them?”
In order to accomplish anything the proper actions must be taken. It takes knowing what those actions are, and consistently doing them. This is often where the difficulty sets in. We create a plan, only to resist following the steps that we have laid out that will bring us to the completion of our goals.
“How can we persist until all of our goals are reached?”
By finding the necessary energy to change our habits for the better.
The Power of Accountability:
When you are ready to build a lasting business you must be ready to take on responsibility. With responsibility comes accountability.
Working alone it is far too easy to slack off. After all, who is watching?
Being apart of a community builds the positive characteristic of being accountable for your actions. Being a part of something bigger than yourself helps you to gather up the necessary energy to take action in unfamiliar territory.
Are you ready to have the power of accountability work for you? The Occupy the City Community provides detailed training by experts in marketing on line to all members.
If you need clarity, questions posted in the forum are answered by our experienced team members.
Get ready to take action, and start building your ultimate home based business today!

The health and wellness product line that Occupy the City promotes has recently expanded to include skin care products. Which is great news for me, because I often suffer from dry skin, summer or winter. So with the warmer weather coming up I am glad I’ll be able to quench my thirsty skin with the same quality of products that I currently ingest as dietary supplements.
An additional skin care product that is perfect for the summer is the Aftershave lotion, for men and women. I’m excited for this addition because recently (I must be aging) my legs after shaving still are not as smooth as I would like them to be.
We at OTC have just finished up a training call , where we have gone over all of the steps to set up our blogs, and how to gain the maximum exposure for them. All the steps are covered in our forum in the training videos, and our training call served to further clarify the process for those who are new to internet marketing.
I love being a part of these calls, and this community. Having struggled to learn these techniques on my own in the past, it is my pleasure to help out others who might otherwise not pursue this opportunity. It is such a relief to no longer feel so isolated as I go about my tasks of SEO and increasing page rank. It is great to make friends in this way as we all work toward meeting the goals of the community.
