The buzzword at the moment is viral marketing, so
How does that affect you and me, and how can you
Benefit from it.
Viral marketing is the most powerful form of marketing
on the Internet. Major corporations are rushing to master
these strategies.
Viral marketing is when an email with a website link
gets passed around and forwarded on to people's
networks. It moves quickly throughout a network of
people, like an email with a virus. For example, if you
pass on an email to 10 people, who pass it on to 10,
who do the same. That's 1000 people who've seen
your email. If this happens just three more times,
one million people have seen your email.
This enzine is a form of viral marketing it gets passed
around the net each person giving it away to someone
else who gives it to someone else.....
A hits tree is another form of viral marketing click here

How you can benefit:
Sit down think of a subject and write an article about it
It doesn't need to be a very long article, 400 to 600 words
Is the standard amount that any online publication is
Looking for.
Does all this sound like too much work, to much hassle
Are you making excuses, I can't do this or I don't have
Time.
This article took me about 45 minutes to write, and it will

Will get published over and over again, without me having
To do any more work. I will be getting visitors for the next
Few years from 45 min work.
On average I write two articles a month, that's 2 hours a
Month tops, still making excuses about not enough time
I hope not because where else can 2 hours work bring in
A residual income from affiliate sales, with no more effort
Required on your part.
Submitting your article to other ezines was where the
Time and hassle used to be, but even that has now been made
Simple. You can now submit to sites that offer article's to busy
Ezine publishers, and they will offer your article to all there
