Part of my job is to think of ways on advertising our sites and should come up with a nice strategy other than the usual procedures that we're currently doing. Apart from creating social bookmarking sites, we've thought of advertising our products on YouTube. Great! What a nice idea we got there. Since we all know that there are already number of advertisers who are taking advantage of YouTube's popularity and are taking a great return out of that. With this, I have tried creating a slideshow of our products (real estate properties) using this very nice software from Slideroll. I just found it on Google when I searched for a free software - flash slideshow. I've tried it for the first time and I was really impress with their impressive plugins or features unlike other related softwares that really don't work for me. Our plan is to upload videos on YouTube 'cause that's where we want to advertise our site and what's nice about Slideroll is that you can download your saved slideshow by just paying $7.50, that's their bimonthly rate ($3.75 per month) to be exact. It's really worth to pay for such affordable amount 'cause by doing so you can:
* Upload up to 5000 photos.
* Create an unlimited number of slideshows.
* Create slideshows of any size and shape.
* Create higher quality, larger slideshows up to 800 x 600 pixels!
* Download your slideshows and keep them forever.
* Create larger videos in the Video Creator!
* Fast-loading, Ad-free slideshows.
* No Slideroll logo in the corner of your slideshow nor in your videos.
It's such an experience and the procedure in creating a slideshow has never been that easy, indeed it's a user-friendly. I strongly recommend this if you're looking for some video maker or slideshow creator.

improving and monetizing website
A lot of online marketers nowadays are trying to do their best to compete with the sudden changes of the networks that they are advertising with. Aside from Craigslist' issue of verified phone accounts, we also have Google. The thing is, they have implemented some kind of a system where sometimes ads shown are not really that quality ads or maybe ads just have lesser amount of click through rates. The conversion is just so minimal and I just can't imagine how they are giving their advertisers a minimal return for a well paid PPC ad.
Clear enough, I can't beat their system so I did not take much attention to my PPC campaigns anymore but still ads are running but I have just set a minimal bid for my keywords. At the same time, one of the ways to advertise my products & services is by joining number of social bookmarking sites. There are actually a lot of them that I've joined and to name some we have:
• Propeller.com
• Slashdot.org
• Digg.com
• Technorati.com
• Del.icio.us
• Stumbleupon.com
• Twitter.com
• Reddit.com
• Tagza.com
• Fark.com
• Newsvine.com
• Furl.net
• swik.net
• Connotea.org
• Links Marker
• Sphinn.com
• Blinklist.com
• Faves.com

• Spurl.net
• Netvouz.com
• Diigo.com
• Backflip.com
• Rawsugar.com
• Bibsonomy.org
• Folkd.com
• Linkagogo.com
• Indianpad.com
• Plugim.com
• Myjeeves.ask.com

• Wirefan.com
• Dizzed
• Danogo.com
• Symbaloo
• Ximmy
• Erollover
• YuppMarks
• Health Ranker
• Ka-Boom-It.com
These are just some of the social bookmarking sites that I am working with and so far even without my PPC campaigns, site traffic and earnings are just coming in so easily. This is so because using this kind of optimization will help you promote your site easily and effectively. And to simply make your site be noticed, you just need to maintain and update it regularly.
