Use your Knowledge for Web 2.0 Promotions

If you publish websites or sell products online you have probably built up quite a bit of knowledge in your niche or your chosen field. By sharing this knowledge with the web world you can help people out and market your websites or products effectively.

Humans have an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. A number of years back the internet changed the way we looked at information and effectively provided a virtual library for anyone with a computer and a phone line.

However, the collaborative nature of the Web 2.0 world has taken this a step further. Instead of just reading content, web users can now contribute and, for an internet marketer, this can be a valuable tool. By posting information and answering questions online you can drive significant traffic to your website. Here are some of the best websites to make this happen.

Wikipedia

Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia that is written and edited by users. You may not be able to get a full page published about your business, but you should be able to contribute to relevant pages and include an URL to your websites. However, all content should be relevant, interesting and informative as editors will weed out any blatant attempts to promote your product. You can also use this method with websites such as WikiHow, Wikia and other websites.

Yahoo! Answers

On Yahoo! Answers you will find questions about anything, and everything and you should find plenty of questions related to your niche. You can include information about yourself in your profile and even include URLs in you answers. Users can vote on your answers, so the better your answers the higher your exposure. Spamming here is not a good idea as you'll quickly get a bad reputation. This method should also work on websites like Askeet, WikiAnswers, Yedda and others.

Listable

Listable uses tagging, voting, commenting and other Web 2.0 elements to create an easily searchable list of resources for web users. The community provides relevant URLs for various categories. You can use this to your advantage by finding relevant categories and adding URLs to your own web pages. This method can also be used with WhatALi.st.

Other collaborative Web 2.0 promotion opportunities you may want to explore include Wikia, Ehow and Product Wiki. As well as providing backlinks to your websites and boosting your search engine page ranking, these methods should also create some good organic traffic.
