I’m sure you’ve heard of sites like Facebook and MySpace. They’re known as social networking sites. They let people form an online community to share information about stuff they care about. That’s great, but what really counts for Internet marketers is that communities of people who are passionately interested in something can be a gold mine if you can figure out a way to market to them without turning them off. And that potential to turn people off has been a real road block for people who try to marketing to communities, using what’s called social marketing. Sites like MySpace will flat-out run you off. There are some social networking sites that won’t, but the downside is that they can change the rules at the drop of a hat and cut off your income stream. Not good. Until now, setting up your own social networking sites has been like twisting yourself into a pretzel.Enter Niche Socializer. This is going to change everything. Why? Because it makes setting up profitable community sites a breeze. The software was built by a team commissioned by two experienced Internet marketers (Andrew X and Steven Lee Jones). They wanted a platform that would make it easy to set up a community site in any niche they chose. Boy, did they succeed. This software is a joy to use. Wizards walk you through setting everything up. And you can create some dazzling sites, with all the bells and whistles. I’m talking about built-in forums, integrated business directories, and professional sign-up features that make you look as good as Facebook. You name it, you can do it. So you don’t have to worry about creating a site you won’t be proud of. That might actually be tough to do with Niche Socializer. But again, what really counts is the money you can make with this platform, and that’s where Niche Socializer really shines. It’s clear that Andrew and Steven had monetization in mind from the get-go, because it’s extremely natural to build in multiple income streams. It starts with the ultimately flexible membership features. They’ve hit a home run here. You can set up free trial periods, different membership levels, flexible charges, just about anything you can imagine. But it doesn’t stop there. You can, for example, set up your own classified ads section and charge your members to post ads.
