Social networking, we have all likely heard of it before, but not everyone knows what it means?  If you were asked to define what social networking was, would you be able to give an accurate definition. Unfortunately, most individuals cannot, even though it is likely that they participate in some form of social networking, especially online.

Social networking is defined as the grouping of individuals together into to specific groups, often like a small community or a neighborhood. Although social networking is possible in person, especially in schools or in the workplace, it is most popular online. This is because unlike most high schools, colleges, or workplaces, the internet is filled with millions, if not more, of individuals who are looking to meet other internet users and develop friendships.

When it comes to social networking online, websites are used. These websites are known as social networking websites.  Social networking websites are, in a way, like an online community of internet users. Depending on the social networking website in question, many of these online community members share a common bond, whether that bond be hobbies, religion, or politics.  Once you are granted access to a social networking website you can begin to socialize.  This socialization may include reading the profiles or profile pages of other members or even contacting them.

The friends that you can make are just one of the many benefits to social networking online.  Another one of those benefits includes diversity. Unlike in most schools or workplaces, the internet gives individuals, from all around the world, access to social networking sties. This means that although you are in the United States, you could develop an online friendship with someone in Japan.  Not only will you make a new friend, you but may also learn a thing or two about a new culture.

As previously mentioned, social networking often involves grouping specific individuals or organizations together. While there are a number of social networking websites that focus on particular internets, there are others that do not. These websites are often deemed traditional social networking websites.  These types of websites typically have an open membership. This means that anyone can become a member, no matter what their hobbies, beliefs, or views are. However, once you are inside this online community, you can begin to create your own network of friends; thus eliminating others that do not meet your criteria.

If networking on the internet sounds like something you would be interested in, you are encouraged to learn more about it, such as the dangers of social networking. These dangers often involve online predators or individuals who claim to be someone that they are not.  Although danger does exist with networking online, it also exists with networking out in the real world. As when you are meeting friends at a bar, school, or work, you are advised to proceed with caution online. By being aware of your surroundings and who you are talking to, you should be able safely enjoying social networking online.
Once you have learned everything that you feel you need to learn, about social networking online, you can begin to search for networking communities to join. This can easily be done by performing a standard internet search.  Your search will likely return a number of results, including MySpace, FriendWise, FriendFinder,  Facebook, Orkut, and Classmates.

The GuruBypass:

Does it live up to it’s claims?

When I first saw the sales page for
The Guru Bypass something struck me immediately…

It stated I could make money first before I had
to start spending!
Having spent thousands of dollars in the past
on various products only to learn I had to spend
loads more to make them work, this is something
that really appealed to me.

Comparing it to many major product launches, the
first thing that stands out is the price. It’s
not the usual $107 reduced to $97 and only $77
if you buy it now… type of product. In fact
at $47 the creators do seem to have taken note
that there is a credit crunch affecting people.

The Membership Area is really well set out and
the 1st thing I did was download the ‘system pdf’
and the ‘case studies pdf’.

After reading the case studies – I was certainly
inspired to get straight into the product and
get it working for me.
Never having come across the system before I felt
a bit apprehensive and wondered if I would be
able to follow the instructions. However after
reading the book a couple of times I thought I
should be able to follow it through to the end.
Then I remembered something……

Back to the Members Area and there before me was
a selection of “Step By Step Video Tutorials”
that anyone can follow. What pleased me here
was that they weren’t part of a One Time Offer
designed to get more cash off me before I had
even seen the product!

Randy & Anton had included them as part of the
package which gives great value to your purchase.

Back to the system:
I can’t give too much away about the system but
I can confirm you can use this product even if
you have….No website, No Money, No List. and
No product….and you will see results within
hours not weeks or months!
In fact I had ‘results’ within 30 minutes of
setting things up, though it did take me a couple
of hours to get everything in place!
(for future use of the system that couple of
hours would be eliminated)

This is one system that is NOT dominated by the
Guru’s where anyone with a little time and effort
can start using this to make an income on the net.

The Guru Bypass System does go further than just
outlining the initial process. Once you are in
profit it shows you how to use some of that
profit to build a long term business. This
includes building a mailing list and more long
term tactics you need so you can finally start
to reap the benefits from your efforts.

I believe the creators realise that having a
mailing list is the more important factor for
long term stability of any long term online
business, so although they do show the incomes
made without such, they do put a lot of emphasis
on switching tactics once some initial cash has
been made.

Ok what was my biggest mistake?

Like me if you have bought lots of products
before you would have been presented with a
One Time Offer after purchase. Most of the
time these are not related to the product
you are buying and is just another way to
squeeze money out of you so I just flipped
past it to get to the members area.

However the OTO that these guys show you is
amazing value, I have since come across a
similar offer selling for over $150 but more
importantly I now realize how purchasing the
OTO would fit in with The Guru Bypass System
so my advice to you is grab it now whilst
you can.

The One Time Offer presented is in the form
of a ‘Massive’ library of 136 Unrestricted
PLR products that can be used with the system
to generate increased profits and at a quicker
rate, but that is something easy to decide on
for two reasons.

1 – If you already own a heap of PLR , then
it wouldn’t be needed unless you really
wanted to add to your collection.

2 – The price of the oto is also a very
reasonable $37

So for that amount I wished I’d grabbed it
there and then!
Having now seen how these can be used with
the system – they do seem to be a perfect
fit at a very good price.

Overall opinion:

The Guru Bypass System isn’t something brand
new, but it is something that I’ve not seen
any other big marketer using. I have seen a
similar system on another big names site –
but on trying that one I found it to be
restricted to large established marketers.

That’s where the GuruBypass system wins hands
down… Anyone can use it at any level!

The downside is the couple of hours setting
it up, and then the potential of having to
do some of that again at future intervals,
as they do warn you within the product –
some aspects are under the control of outside
influence that can cause things to stop.
There is a full explanation of what to do
to restart the process, and the negative
isn’t anything to do with what is taught
– just one of those things that occurs online.

Conclusion:

It does what it says it will!

I imagine people with large lists probably
wouldn’t spend too much time on this, and
if they did, they would jump past the
initial stages because they can.
But for the newbie – this does seem to be
one of the best systems I’ve come across
in years.

Seeing results so early on in using the
system will encourage many to keep going,
unlike most products we purchase where we
give up to soon because nothing is happening
or we need to spend a lot more cash to make
it work.

And therein lies the strength of
The GuruBypass System.
I genuinely believe many people will use this
as a springboard to regular online incomes,
and a lasting business.

For established marketers with large lists
- this is probably a product you would have
your outsourcing staff set up for you and
tweak on a monthly basis for extra list
building. Plus it’s something you would
probably want to recommend your affiliates
get a hold of to add to your income levels.

For people with no list, or just starting
out with a small list and growing – this
could well be the product that takes you
to the next level!
