Media Sites

Media Sites - From videos to photographs, the ability to produce and promote one's self on line is quite historic.

If you want to create self directed movies or post pictures of users in action with your solution, the internet is ripe with landing places for this and more creative content.

You can by-pass the traditional media portals and use media sites to direct interested parties on where to find out directly about your ideas and solutions.

The ability to get users to look at your site is often called the 'buzz" about it - and content including clips or pictures which have a lot of buzz are often picked up quickly by other sites and other media sources. 

Plan on creating media that goes viral, starts a "buzz" and is distributed to hundreds or thousands of media sites. Use media sites for marketing your products, services and ideas to a mass audiance. You'll be rewarded for your time and effort creating the media to be delivered.
