4. Social Networks - You should take some time and go to and set up accounts on Png.Fm or AutomaticBookmarking.com. They make it easy to leverage your time by taking one post and spreading it to 50 different of social networking sites in less than 15 minutes. Do this with your blog post and your YouTube videos, post a link and begin to spread the word.
