BuzzStream - Link Building Management Suite
Just got this Twitter Tweet from Eric Ward (aka The Godfather of Link Building):
ericward RT @BuzzStream launches! Free link building app: CRM, contact info finder, email and Twitter msg tracking. http://pitch.pe/9069
Thank GOD I was paying attention! This BuzzStream program is just about all that the doctor could order in terms of a packaged, handy, 3rd party link-building-management-suite. Oh, and you get to test drive it for FREE. I’m a sucker for that 4 letter word (free). Anyway, after seeing the Tweet and being as impatient as I am for someone to respond to my update notification (I wish everyone in my office worked at my pace) I clicked the tiny url. Straight up URL = www.buzzstream.com
Being somewhat of a self-proclaimed link-building guru (adapting everything I know from experience and following Eric Ward‘s lead), I’m always looking for a means to expedite the process – without spamming – and also looking for ways to keep up with link relationships and potential link relationships. You see, we send untold #’s of emails every day, week, month to relevant resources. Some of them give us links. Some don’t. Some give us links and never let us know so it’s kind of hard to get 100% accuracy for a link building campaign. BuzzStream helps boost the accuracy and the effectiveness of your link building campaign so you can catch the links you get from people that might not respond. You can have someone scouring the web for potential resources and set them to delegate everything they find to someone to do the leg work in terms of sending all the emails. And by sending emails, I mean a non-spammy, classy, well-written, custom email sent to someone specific. Check my “Link Building – How To Do It Right” post.
Now, BuzzStream doesn’t send the email for you – I would imagine that might be a neato module to add on later – but the management metrics it allows, the searching it performs, the information it spits back, and so on and so on is all really, really powerful and helpful. I can do everything it can do, but it can do everything I can do and keep it in one nice handy location. Which is really slick if I want to bring someone else in to help me out. Or if I want to see who I’ve sent emails to so I can follow up with them. Or if I want to see which sites have linked to me upon request. Lots of cool things.
What I recommend if you have any interest in link-building is give BuzzStream a test drive. It’ll knock your socks off. With Google getting a nickname as a “popularity engine” you might want to give link building and BuzzStream strong consideration.
