Ask Bob The Teacher

Today on Bob The Teacher TV, I answer questions from the mailbag.

These questions involve online video, Twitter, warming up visitors before trying to sell them something, and duplicate content between blogs, Squidoo, etc.

Questions answered in this episode…

“How do I send a group of friends a new added video and message at the same time? Thank you!”- Michael Flume

“Bob, how can I get you to follow me on Twitter. I’m following you: http://twitter.com/terrywhalin I have written more than 60 books traditional publsihers.” - Terry Whalin

“How can I help people before I ask them to consider buying my offer?” - Susan Schaffer

It would make it easy to for updating frequently.” - Scott Searles
