I have been stunned by the results of VWD’s recent launch of their ‘Viral’ site.
12,000 new members in under 30 days is not too shabby!
This one page includes a very short teaser video with some pretty ‘generic’ text discussing a huge market and encouraging visitors to opt in for more information.
I was watching some Frank Kern stuff the other day, about the ‘triangle of trust’ and the power of video on blogs and I think he made a real important point:
Video holds a relatively high ‘preceived value’ to website visitors, especially on a blog.
Frank talked about the blog being a fairly ‘non threatening’ environment. ie. it’s not perceived as something that will sell you something (like a sales page does)
So, maybe, it’s the video on this viral page that’s made all these people opt in…
Of course, once you have opted in, you get the info and all the ’social, tell a friend and bookmark tools’ to help get the word out about the site… I wonder though whether it’s those that’s driving the traffic to the viral page, numbers on the inside suggest the social tools are doing very well, especially for those just starting out on the net.
Anyway… here’s the page that’s creating all those members: http://stacktheodds.net/free what do you think?

The anticipated launch of http://ian.webprosperity.com at 5PM GMT today has been extended for another 7 days.
This is apparently due to pressure from the masses:
“Over the last 24 hours we have received a flood of emails asking, begging and pleading with us to extend the WebProsperity Pre-Launch and continue to accept free sign-ups.”
Get the full story on the webprosperity blog: http://blog.webprosperity.com
Webprosperity anticipate over 100,000 free prelaunch signups, come 13th January no more free signups will be taken and the launch will begin to move to the next stage.
If you’d like to find out more about this opportunity and the products, take a look at http://ian.webprosperity.com/ you can see there signups happening every few seconds on the live feed…
Cheers!

I’m in the throws of setting up a Word Press blog under my own hosting account, really surprised at how simple it was actually, one minor hiccup with the database name but other than that a real cynch!
I wanted to incorporate John Merrick and Soren Jordansen’s Tweet My Blog and having been through the setup video that was pretty easy too!
Twitter is a pretty amazing Social Networking, Web 2 application, Tweet Tweet!
