I know we have been quiet for over a month, but believe me, it has been a very busy month for us with a lot of coding and development that took a lot longer than expected, but it will be worth it, oh yes… it will be worth it!

It has been really frustrating for me, because every day for the last 2 weeks or so, I have expected to be able to publish this post, but again and again there were delays in getting everything ready. It’s still not completely ready, but it is ready enough for me to tell you about and give you access to play.

First of all, we had to convert the twitter tools to the oAuth method of verification. This means that you no longer need to enter your Twitter password into the members area to use the tools. Instead, you give our application permission to access your Twitter account and your Twitter password remains secure on Twitter. This is a MUCH better method, not just for the security of your Twitter account, but also for the usability of the Twitter forms.

Asking visitors to enter their twitter password into your web page was a stumbling block that actually made the tweet forms less responsive than a standard email list subscription. People would rather give you their email address then trust a stranger with there Twitter password, this is understandable. Changing to oAuth has made it so the visitor can tweet the message to twitter with a single click of the “Tweet” button. Without having to enter their Twitter username and password on your site.

Result = The tweet forms become much more responsive and ultimately you make more money.

The next major improvement we have made to the site is on the member profile pages. These profile pages are automatically promoted as you use the system. All your tweet forms, all your cloaked RSS feeds, and every link you bookmark with our (new) bookmarklet tool contains the QKR Viral Toolbar and every toolbar contains a link to your profile page.

The profile pages are a very important part of the system, they should ensure that you remain “branded” throughout all your promotions and  what we were giving you here was good enough, it could not do that.  This part of the system needed re-developing.

We were only giving you  a single member profile page, this was not good enough. Now you have a profile page for every twitter account that you add into the system. This means that your “marketing identities” are promoted through the appropriate tweets. Your health promotions display your health related twitter account and so on, instead of every link created linking back to the one “untargeted” account.

I am sure you will agree that this is a massive and much needed delvelopment?

On top of this, we have created a directory of twitter accounts. It seemed a logical step. After adding a twitter account to the system, you can tag yourself and list yourself in as many appropriate categories as you choose.

The Twitter directory is located here and right now it is pretty much empty (because I just told you about it). Soon it will be a great place for people to find targeted people to follow. That means you will be able to find people and people will be able to find you.

Now here is the really cool thing… Every time anyone tweets one of your forms, we will create a listing for them in the directory, place them in the category of the form they tweeted and send them a direct message to say we created a profile for them and ask if they would like to claim and extend it.

If they “claim” their profile in the directory, they will join Viral Marketing Method through your affiliate link. (Gold members and above take note… this will automatically build your business centre when members USE the system).

I have created some videos showing you how to add your twitter accounts and edit your listing in the directory at YouTube and will be adding more over the next few days. The videos in your members area are still valid in principle, but because of these changes some of the methods have changed and I want to get them all on YouTube anyway. It makes sense, there is traffic there and it does not cost me!

Please note we are still in “beta” phase and you should expect bugs. The profile pages particularly have a few issues. Like how it is not possible to actually follow any of the users on Twitter yet (D’ oh) and your affiliate link is not integrated into the twitter accounts you add, so there is no link for people to join Viral Marketing Method through your profile page or list themselves.

There is also a bug with the new bookmarklet which should be fixed tonight, maybe already by the time you read this. The problem is that the links created with the bookmarklet do not link to the correct profile page in the directory. This will be fixed shortly and all links created corrected.

You will find the new bookmarklet on the “Marketing Profiles” page in your members area.

I am sure you will agree that these developments have been well work coding and that is makes a lot of sense to have them ready before we begin major promotion of the site. That major promotion will happen very soon, and I hope you will be ready. It could be a very big pay day for you.

I’ll explain why in a couple of days… Things are not ready enough for me to tell you yet.  If you are not a member yet, click here to join for free while we are still in “beta” phase.

All the best

Dan
