What the heck, is Web 2.0, right?

WARNING: DO NOT BE INTIMIDATED. THIS IS SIMPLE TO SET UP AND MAINTAIN!


Some say WEB 2.0 is just a buzz word....

Some say it's garbage....

Some say they have no idea or they could care less...

------------------

But I say, it's INGENIOUS!
I say it's Common Sense!
I say it's one of the largest tools you can use online!

**********************************************************************
I ASKED OTHER INVESTORS WHAT THEY THOUGHT ABOUT IT ...
**********************************************************************

I ran 2 small Polls online about Web 2.O and here are the results.... Not too many voters, but check out the comments to see what other investors thought:

Poll Results/Comments 1: http://www.reiclub.com/forums/index.php/topic,37202.0.html

As you can see, everyone had there input and it was much appreciated either way.



**************************************
The Wikipedia Definition of Web 2.0
**************************************

If we look at the wikipedia definition of Web 2.0, here is what you'll see:



Web 2.0 is a term describing the trend in the use of World Wide Web technology and web design that aims to enhance creativity, information sharing, and, most notably, collaboration among users. These concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities and hosted services, such as social-networking sites, wikis, blogs, and folksonomies.



*******************************************
The Main Elements in this definition are:
*******************************************

1. Enhanced Creativity
2. Information Sharing
3. Collaboration Among Users
4. Web Based Communities
5. Social Networking
6. Wikis
7. Blogs
8. Folksonomy

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Now if someone had no clue what folsonomies (social tags), web-based communities, wikis, blogs, etc... were, then this definition may appear vauge. But for those of you who know exactly what this definition is saying, this definition will likely appear to be broad!

At any rate, I'm going to dig into this definition and pick it apart for you in case it was unclear and I'm going to show you how it can apply to Real Estate Investing and turn into huge RESULTS for your biz. I'm talking on a level where deals and leads are coming to you from all angles, on a level where you can:

• grow a nice size investor list to market your properties to or products.
• Network with other Investors (Learn, Teach, and Grow with other Investors)
• find motivated sellers faster (Or more importantly, have them find you! :-D )
• even find motivated buyers faster! (Or have them find you! :-D )
• Make money Faster!!! (You only make money by closing deals or sales, however you must plant the seeds!)
  

*****************************************************
In all actuality this can be applied to any business.
*****************************************************

First everything I've made bold above is the true basis of this definition. It's not vague at all, however it is a very broad definition. Not to worry though, because that's a good thing. I'm not going to go into some big drawn out boring speach on Web 2.0.



First, I"m just going to break it down in the form of the 5 W's.


Who: YOU!
What: The Internet (World Wide Web) & Web 2.0
When: Every second of every hour of every day! 365/24/7
Where: Well, there are sites like Blogger.com, Myspace, YouTube, etc. In fact do you recognize any of these logos below? Look closely...

Why: Why Not? More and more people are getting online everyday. There is a statistic floating around online that says 80% of people look for their homes online! Meaning they check out the internet, find a home they like, look at the pics and whatever information they see, then they likely contact the person who owns that online listing, so they can schedule an apointment to go see it in person.

Hmmm.....

If 80% of home buyers are searching for homes online, then why wouldn't you capitalize on that? Not saying that the 20% won't put $$ in your pocket, but I mean really.... Look at the numbers, it only increases the odds! And who the heck says that you can't have an online presence and an offline presense.

How: Now how do you utilize this Web 2.0 stuff in your Real Estate Investing World, right? It's simple, you'll use it for Online Marketing.

******************************************************************
Is Barack Obama using Web 2.0? Why the heck should I care???

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

Well, let me explain... People wonder how Barack Obama was able to raise so much money for his Marketing Campaign. Now whether you support Obama or not (and I'm not here to push you to the right or to the left), you have to admit that he is running a damn good marketing campaign. One of the reasons he has become so successful is because of the power of the internet. Is Barack Obama using Web 2.0? Yes, my friend he absolutely is. Maybe he doesn't even realize it... or maybe he does. Who knows and who cares... The fact of the matter is that you can do the same thing on a much smaller scale and still reap huge results.


If you look at his site he has practially everything that the wikipedia definition says:


First of all the appearance of his site (web design that aims to enhance creativity...) isn't too shabby, in my opinion. (Now let me be the first to tell you that you don't have to have fancy & pretty web designs to be successful with your own online real estate investing presence, however it definitely won't hurt...)

http://www.mybarackobama.com/


Second, look at his issues tab.... Now he's telling everyone his stance on each issue (Information sharing with text & Video You tube and other video sites) and he also has a BLOG!

ISSUES: http://www.barackobama.com/issues/

BLOG: http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/hqblog

Imagine you having a Real Estate Investing Website that would allow you to share information with your users/ visitors and plus they can read your blogs and see what you are about...

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Click Here to Return to the June Silver Platter Deals Newsletter
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Another thing he is doing is allowing his supporters to create their own blogs, schedule events in their area, donate money, etc. (collaboraton among users) This is effective in everyone spreading the word about Obama and essentially more and more people are going to donate to a campaign that they believe in and contribute their ideas and information to his web -based community.

What type of Web Based Communities are there in the Real Estate World?

Advertising Sites

http://www.craigslist.com/

http://www.backpage.com/

http://www.kijiji.com/

http://www.oodle.com/

and the list goes on...

Discussion Forums

http://www.reiclub.com/

http://www.wannanetwork.com/

http://www.dealmakerscafe.com/

http://www.biggerpockets.com/

http://www.creonline.com/

Yahoo Real Estate Groups

Google Real Estate Groups

and the list goes on...

Let's see how else is Obama using Web 2.O....


Another thing Obama is utilizing very well is Social Networking. This is probably the largest source of his success online. If you look at the corner of his home page, you'll see that he has a list of social networking sites.

He is on all the big name sites:

• http://www.facebook.com/ (I'm on facebook too! Just search for J.Lamar Ferren or Lamar The Investor)


• Myspace (Obama has over 400,000 friends, Mccain has over 50,000 friends...See for yourself....Now I'm not saying that Myspace is dictating the election, but I am saying that one canidate seems to be a little more effective at social networking than the other. With that said, at lease Mccain is doing something online. Probably why he was able to run alone on the republican side... Who knows, I'm not even going to begin to talk politics...)

Talk about diversity!!! Do you know how many people visit these sites every day? 365/24/7

Try Millions upon Millions!! No exageration!

Imagine if you had an online presense of this magnitude. Oh and did I mention that it's all free. Yes it will take time, but if time is that important and you don't have the time to focus on setting this up, then start small, or hire someone to do it for you. The point is to get it started. You don't have to do as much as Obama, but something is better then nothing, right? And if you think one is enough, then you can forget it. You can't put all your eggs in one basket. You have to diversify yourself!

Think about it.... If you have people subcribe to your website, subscribe to your social networking services, subscribe to your blog.... Wouldn't that increase your chances of building relationships! It's common sense...

I signed up for twitter the other day and I had 11 people follow me in 2-3 days. That wasn't much at all, but then again maybe it was. If you get on average 5 people per day following you, then you'll pull about 150 people/month.

Same goes with all the other social networking sites. People can request to be your friend. I signed up for Real Estate Investor.com and made 13 contacts in 2 days and all I did was sign up. I didn't even get a chance to get into the site because I was working on this newsletter at the same time.

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

So think about it if I'm pulling in 150 friends/m from varous sites, (By the way you'll need to be active in order to accomplish this) then all I would need to do once I get a property is put it out to all my friends...Here's the kicker! One property is being blasted to hundreds of people who also know hundreds of people that know hundreds of people, etc, etc, etc.... (By the way make sure you stay within the guidelines of each site or you'll be violating spam guidelines. Do it in a respectful and ethical manner and people will respect you better)

You can't tell me that's not powerful.

And if you're a "blogger" (so I call myself these days...) like me and you like to share you're thoughts and Ideas, then people will get to know you and start giving you feedback, whether it be acutally on your blog (hint hint...) or via email.

This is not hard to set up at all. Again, you can do it in a matter of minutes. Do a couple each day, or you can do one a day... Just Get it All Set Up! Take it one step at a time!

Oh wait....I almost forgot.... If you're wondering how sellers and buyers will find you, just think about google. Everytime you post an ad, write something in a forum, write a blog, etc... Search Engines will be crawling your content like crazy. Plus there are active sellers and buyers who are looking for information like yours and they get involved in discussion forums too. They ask questions like.."How can I get a home with bad credit?" and "How can I sell my House Fast" or How can I list my home with a Realtor, etc.... I've seen it for myself and I always send the a PM and direct them to my site in a respectful manner. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. It doesn't hurt to ask if they need your services.

Another thing is referrals! It huge. All those people in your network will start sending business your way, whether it be buyers, sellers, investment deals, other investors, etc.

Anyway, I think you get the picture. :-) If not, then I'm sorry I cannot stress to you any more how huge and effective Web 2.0 is and this is just the Tip of the iceberg. I didn't even get into Search Engine Optimization and things of that nature. This is just a brief overview in my opinion and I hope it was informative.

Leave me some feedback and tell me what you thought!

Oh and if you want an even better analysis of Web 2.0 when it comes to Real Estate Investing, then check out Colin Egbert at http://www.realestateinvestor.com/reiwealth (Much better analysis... If you didn't see how huge Web2.0 was from my quick little overview, then you'll definitely see it here: http://www.realestateinvestor.com/reiwealth

Happy 4th of July from Lamar The Investor!

Hey Everyone,

Today is the day to celebrate our FREEDOM! I hope you are enjoying the holiday and spending it with your loved ones.... I know I am! :-)

Anyway, if you have time maybe you can check out the Declaration of Independence below! This is what started it all!

Have a good holiday!

J.Lamar Ferren
New Breed Real Estate Investor.

Ps. See Below!

The Declaration of Independence
IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776.THE UNANIMOUS DECLARATION OF THE THIRTEEN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
WHEN in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.

He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless these people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.

He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.

He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.

He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.

He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.

He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance.

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.

He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.

He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.

In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

*********************************************************************
WE, THEREFORE, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
