Let’s Get Creative! This Is How To Engage Viewers On Sweeva!

I’ve been sitting on my soap box during the past few weeks and begging Sweeva users to engage their fellow surfers. I’ve been describing how to do it, but I thought today I would show people and explain how to create engaging squeeze and splash pages in a VERY easy to follow method.

The first thing I did was create a basic splash page. Now I use my own server but you can use the free HTML editor at T.E. Toolbox. This serves the purpose and is very easy to use. You want to create something that fits within the surf window at Sweeva too, so make sure it fits in the fold properly.

Next, you will want to create a free account at uStream. When you get your free account all set up, you will want to create a show. Simply click ‘Create A Show’ and fill out the form. It doesn’t matter what you call it, but use a bit of creative thinking here.

Next, you will need the code for the show to stick it on your page. The options are in the ‘Your Shows’ of the uStream account. Scroll down and look to the right side of the page, it’ll say ‘Share Your Show’ and then ‘Live Embed’. Copy that code.

Paste that code in your newly created splash page at T.E. Toolbox. Now I know the code looks funky and there’s a LOT going on but look for the part of the code that says “value=”autoplay=false&amp” . Don’t worry, I know this sounds techy, but it’s a very easy step.

Simply change where it reads ‘false’ to ‘true’. That’s it. Replace the word false with true. What this does is let your live stream play automatically when people come to your splash page.

Save your splash page, edit it as you see fit and make any changes to really grab people’s attention. And that’s it. Now once your page is added to Sweeva, wait for the bid to be accepted and then ENGAGE the Sweeva browsers. Grab their attention, give them incentive to opt into your mailing list or click a link. Ask them to post their thoughts in the chat box. TALK to them!

Remember, using live video separates you from 99.9% of the other advertisers and people really appreciate the fact that you are trying to work with them. Be creative and have fun. I know this seems like a little bit of work, and yes, it does require a little bit of copy and pasting. But it WORKS! I have been using a uStream page all this morning in Sweeva and have been interacting and building relationships with dozens of viewers.

No regular splash page can do that!

Here’s my example, feel free to poke around and look at the code of how I did it. You can do this as well, it doesn’t cost a penny and it will make you stick out so much in Sweeva and around the traffic exchanges!

    Thanks John,

    This is taking Sweeva to the next level!

    I take personal branding to the next level on NeoTrainingNetwork.com. And this method with UStream is the icing on the cake :)

    Thanks John, great networking on the Sweeva Site, sometimes we just need a little reminder to log in and chat.

    Blessings,

    Nice, thanks for all the comments folks. I hope people use this idea because it did wonders for me yesterday!

    Instead of telling people to be engaging and creative about splashpages you should be asking them to comment on the programs etc.

    I do not need to be told what my pages need nor do 99% of the marketers out there-what we want and need are conversions and from my experience and hundreds of others who have contacted me Sweeva is the worst waste of time they have ever used.

    Sweeva is fun and it is entertaining and can even be educational- but is just not cost effective at getting what we all want.
    You need to emphasis that point-I have even read comments like “we are not suppose to signup- just tell them what they are doing wrong”

    “This is not a TE- it is only for socializing, not business”

    Those are the misconceptions you need to address.
    imho

    Thanks Jon, this Article inspired me to build more sites at TE Toolbox. Thank you for all you,and partners have done @ Sweeva. This is truly the best networking platform to date, if used properly. And thanks for today’s special surfing bonus.

    I haven’t tried this yet, but after reading this I will. Thanks for the information.

  13. Ben London

    Thanks Jon…great advice, especially the part about keeping at least the most important information ‘above the fold’.

  14. Hector Herrera

    I spent a couple of hours following all your instructions and I never could create the splash page with the video.Something is not right

  15. Jon Olson

    Hector, what happened. Got a line for me to see what you have done so far? Thanks everyone for the comments, much appreciated!

  16. Jon Olson

    Sorry Hector, do you have a link for me to check out?

  17. Raymond Noud

    I really think it’s great that you took the time to help everyone in this way.
    However, I just want to point out that there are people like myself, who hate sites that auto-play videos with annoying sound blasting through their speakers. I very much prefer to read the information, and then click the video if I want to, and when I want to. I realize that I may be the minority here but wanted to tell you that folks like me exsist.

    Kia ora – that is New Zealand for thanks!

  19. Lugano Synergy

    The Membership is grate wonderful group

  20. Jon Olson

    Raymond – thanks for that. Ya I totally understand. See this wouldn’t be so much ‘loud and blasting’ simply because there are people out there like yourself who dont want to get annoyed. I’m going to do another one tomorrow on Sweeva to show how to do it…Without the need for screaming and yelling =)

  21. Jon Olson

    Michael / Lugano – Thank YOU for the comments. I really appreciate them!

  22. Vlad

    “value=”autoplay=false&amp” – when I see a webpage with auto playing video – I am looking for a button “skip” if the button absents, I press “refresh” or “next” because I pay for each megabyte and I don’t like when somebody takes out my money from my poket without my permission.

  23. Penny Auction Online

    Hey that is a really nice idea. I love to get more and more visitors so i’ll think about the offer.

  24. Puneet

    Thank you Jon, though have never heard of this site before nor I am very tech savy but surely will check this out.

    All the best to you

  25. Jon Olson

    Vlad – highly recommend you look at live video. It’s not just the future of this business but it’s here now. Something you may want to embrace =)

    Thanks Penny / Puneet…Glad you guys enjoyed it =)

  26. Lynne Sherman

    Jon, maybe I’m too easily impressed, but I thought that was just the niftiest thing ever when I saw you live on Sweeva. Imagine – connecting live to the surfers on a TE! Brilliant!
    Gotta get myself a camera…

  27. Andy Gage

    Jon – great Info. Thanks, particularly for the free HTML Editor link. I’ve been looking for a better one than the one I currently use (no names!) for ages. Now I’ll give uStream a try too. It’s free information like this that helps everyone to realize their true online potential. Thanks. It’ll go a long way in making my site even more useful to visitors – and more successful for me, too!
    Thanks again.

  28. Nwangwu Chinedu

    I am going to experiment it immediately. Thanks for the link I appreciate.

  29. S.S

    the above information really impressed me, I appreciate it, will try at the earliest

  30. Jon Olson

    Thanks folks, Lynne I appreciate that. I’ll be firing this up again in a few hours to showcase how to do it. Andy absolutely! There is so much we can do for our businesses, and it doesn’t cost a penny!
