What is Web 2.0?

Analogy: the world was once considered flat.  When the world was discovered to be round the flat world became obsolete.  Web 1.0 is like a flat world.  Web 2.0 (coined in 2004) is like a round world….In Web 2.0 people can subscribe and get involved in communities.  The value to marketers is the collective influence of these communities.

Important for businesses to understand Web 2.0.  Marketers can harness the power of the collective influence of communities in Web 2.0.

Blogosphere: You can be a speaker or a listener.  Visit or participate or both.   People subscribe to blog conversations.  blogs are two way conversations.  People subscribe to the blog (the conversations). 

Podcasting: it is a media file (audio or video).  People subscribe to a podcast as a series of episodes.  Study: July 2006 Knowledgestorm & Universal McCann surveyed 3900 business and IT professionals.  They are increasing using podcasts.  73% listened to business podcasts more than once.  More than half want more podcast content for white papers, case studies.  Their biggest frustration is scarcity of content. 

Post podcasts to a blog with show notes which are indexed by search engines.  Post podcasts in podcast directories such as iTunes.  Plus the search engine indexing of show notes can drive traffic to your website.

Search engine optimization and Internet Marketing is much more than it was ever before.   With the advent of Web 2.0, many more avenues are available.  But, it takes more strategy and effort.  But, the results can be awesome!
