Well there is a new radio station in town. Ok maybe not in town, but within the whole world. It’s called KBC Radio. With Shows on Channel 12902 on Ubroadcast, KBC has new shows including Tech2do live, The Chris Pirillo Show, and KBC News.

Here is a bit more about KBC:

The Kanwell Broadcasting Corporation(KBC) First started in 2004, as a radio station on ubroadcast. Yes it was indeed us at the dial of 632. It was a sports radio station, that caught very few peoples eyes. With only two shows every week, it was not grabbing the attention KBC was hoping for.
In late 2006, KBC Radio shut down due to the insufficient work of the station. The Owner Bradley Bradwell was also going through personal difficulties including the death of several family members.
In January 2008, there was a rebirth. Bradley Bradwell was ready to go, but this time he was going to reshape the whole station and get the most qualified speakers on his station. This includes Chris Pirillo, and Brad Roberts. Yes KBC was now a station with the best speakers of news, technology, sports, entertainment, and much more. We are dedicated to bringing you the latest in these subjects. With a new list of shows including the KBC hourly news, KBC is as big as it has ever been.

If you would like more information on The New KBC radio go to Their Website, and learn more about their shows.

KBC also has fee advertising. If you are interested in Advertising on KBC radio email me at bradley@bradwelltv.com.

KBC is also looking for Talk Shows, so if you are interesting in having your own show, email the address above. There are only a few spots left.

Anyway, Hope you enjoy the new Station in town.

So your a radio host that is looking for a way to get those crazy voices that you here on the radio. Well here is the place where most of these “voiceover” artists go. It’s called radiodaddy.

What radiodaddy is, is a place where some of the best voiceover artists from around the world come together and create fresh new content for your, yes i said your radio station. What you do is you get an account, post what kind of voiceover you wan’t wait a couple of days, come back to radiodaddy, and voila, one of the skilled voiceover artists has created a personalized voiceover just for you.

If you don’t know the type of voiceovers i am talking about, i mean the ones that you here all those cool effects when your listening to the radio. Like “This is music mix 980 Am”, or something like that.

Make sure that you also contribute to the community.

For years and years we have listened to radio whether it was in the house, in the car, or in the ears, but now there is another one to add to that list. Yes i think officially we can say that online radio has become one of the greatest things we have. Not having to be in the service area of one particular station, most stations are broadcasting online now. This brings great choice to the people of the area and the world. Yes now it doesn’t matter where you are in the world, you are still able to listen to your home radio station by just going to their website.

This has also helped the radio and advertising. Now more and more advertising is on the radio because the advertisers know that it will be broadcasted not only in their country but all over the world. This brings in international visitors to their product, and tells people that if they travel to that place they will be able to get that certain product.

Anyway this post might have been a little confusing. Just thought i would write about what i was thinking about at the moment. I think it’s quite interesting. If you think its interesting to, leave a comment below.

So you have just made a website………………. Now what do you do? Most people create a website expecting it to just take off, and be one of the most popular sites on the internet like Youtube, Google, or Facebook. Well right now you are probably being laughed at. Oh wait there is no one to laugh at you.

Have no fear though. I have come up with some quick and easy solutions to help you market your website.

1- Use the power of Youtube. Create a promotional video and upload it to Youtube. You wouldn’t believe how many hits some websites get by putting it on the massive site. If you do choose to put it on Youtube, try and add a link to your website on the main screen. An example of this would be my website http://live.bradwelltv.com. As you can see i have a title bar at the bottom of my screen, and on the bottom left corner there is my website. Although this is not a link, it is still noticeable to the public. You can get hundreds of hits just by using Youtube, so i defanatly recommend using it.

2-Comment in Blogs! You wouldn’t believe this but commenting in blogs gives you that presence in online communities. People will look to you to answer questions that they think you have knowledge of. Now this doesn’t mean put a comment in any blog. Strategically place them in blogs related to your website and your expertise. Also go onto many blogs, and not just one. This will give you a wider presence throughout the internet, and cause your name to become more familiar in your users heads.

3- Give out contact information. Make sure that on your website you have an about/contact page for your users to be able to contact you. Without a about/contact area your website will look more spammy than professional looking. Without it you will cause your users to feel hopeless, and that they are not an important part of your community. If you have a contact page and receive emails from your users, REPLY!!!!!!
Nothing feels worse for your user then feeling like their question isn’t important. If you don’t reply there is also a very high possibility that you have lost your costumer.

4- Be quick- This is very important to keeping users addicted to your site. Apply fresh new content at least 3 times a week. If your site isn’t updated frequently is becomes boring and unattractive. This doesn’t mean redo your whole site 3 times a week. It means add new things, write something new, or just do something that isn’t old. When i say to be quick, i also mean “be first”. Try your best to make sure you have newly released information first, so that search engines will quickly find the information, and direct it to your site. One of the worst things for a user is seeing the same story come up from website after website after website. They like to see something new, and creative.

Thought i would just write that quick little post today.

Hope you enjoyed.

We are probably all used to the Television by now, and what it does, and how it helps us to look for entertainment value. If you didn’t notice by now, people are starting to switch from those television screens to computer monitors. Yes!!! More and more people are watching their favourite television programs on the computer. Television stations are posting their latest shows on their websites like ABC.

I personally have changed my life around. I am rarely watching my favourite shows on television anymore. Instead i turn to the broadcasters website, or just watch Youtube. It has become more easier for me to use the Internet so that i can watch Tv, and do my work at the same time.

Even better. It is possible to attach your computer to your 50″ plasma and watch your online shows from there, and still be able to use your computer. Now that is like a double bonus. I definitely recommend using the new age in technology and watch your entertainment, and work on your computer all at the same time, and with Youtube adding high definition television…….. It will be even better.

Just thought i would touch on something today……… I hopey you enjoyed the post. Leave a comment below, and speak what your opinion is on this matter.

Thanks

More and more people now days are attempting to build their own website, and expect it to pull together in just a few minutes. Unfortunately for them this is not at all the case. Building a community and attracting visitors to your website requires allot of work. Domains Seller websites give everyone the impression that when you build a website you automatically get thousands of hits like Facebook, or Youtube. All i have to say to them is Good Luck. Fortunately i have come up with a few tips of my own on building a community for your website.

1. The Community Knows- Listen to your visitors opinions if they give you feedback. Most people make a website expecting to have a very large obvious. Kind of like getting the community to surround him, when he should in-fact be surrounding the community. Take feedback from visitors very seriously. In-fact you should probably have an easy link to your email and or a contact form located on your website.

2. Make it easy for them to access you- Sign up for every social networking website that you can think of including, Facebook, Youtube, Myspace, and Twitter. These websites will become crucial in letting your visitors know that there is fresh content on your website. Also create more than one email account. One that it for the community to email you like bradley@bradwelltv.com, and other ones to receive all of the newsletters from the websites you have signed up for. Make sure you update everything often. That may even mean a few times a day. Just don’t forget that there is a difference between advertising and spamming.

3-Attract the right people- If your running a sports website, you obviously don’t want to get the biggest geek that has ever lived onto your website. You want people that are interested in what you are talking about. Post comments on other Blogs, preferably ones that are related to the subject your are looking for. They usually have a Field where you can put a link to your website. Just remember not to spam on these websites. Your visitors wont respect you if they see that you are Spamming in any sort of way.

4- Stay Committed- If you want a community, you are going to have to work for it. Building a web community takes time just like anything else including school, chores etc. Make sure that you are doing what you want to do, and makes sure that you enjoy it. No one wants to be around someone who dislikes his own work. Staying committed could possibly mean updating when you are on holidays. It could mean updating from a mobile device. It could mean skipping dinner with someone else. OK that you probably shouldn’t do, but you get the point.

5- Stay on topic- Make sure that you are focused on one topic so that the people that visit your website want to stay on your website. For example: If someone has a blog and they have a post about modeling then the next post they talk about spots. They are probably only going to get people looking at the two different subjects separately. What i mean by this is that most likely they will only see the one post, and then leave, as the visitor would have no interest in sports. This doesn’t happen 100% of the time, but is a realistic scenario.

I hope these tips will help you in whatever type of on-line community you may be creating, and i hope that your community will go places. Hey your first way to build a community- Comment on the Post.

Thanks

There have been more and more reports coming it recently that suggest that the end of the Internet if we don’t try to improve our technology, or if we slow our use down on the Internet. Bandwidth is being pushed to the max, and now with high definition videos coming out on Youtube, the question is, if there will be any of it left for anyone else.

It is estimated that the bandwidth used by youtube in 2007, was more than the entire bandwidth of everyone(in Canada) in 2001. What does that tell you? Now that Youtube is adding high definition. Could Youtube alone cause the end of the internet? With teenagers eating up bandwidth on Youtube, Facebook, Instant Messengers, and other social networking programs, teenagers eat up a huge chunk of bandwith.

Lets also take into consideration what would happen without the Internet. In my opinion the world will virtually stop. People have relied on the Internet for communication including email, online voice communication, and television. Yes we are all addicted. I myself have noticed extreme boredom upon myself without the Internet. A great portion of families have said that there likely isn’t one time of the day at least someone isn’t on the Internet.

In most cases, scientific studies are incorrect, but in my opinion the end of the Internet does seem possible. I myself know that i will not stop using it, so i am depending on the improvement of technology to save it.

note: Study of Youtube usage is an estimate, and not an official pole, or scientific study.

Yesterday i went to a Vancouver Canucks game, and i must say that yesterday i really noticed the difference between watching the event live and watching it on Tv. When i was there it is so easy to miss something while when your watching it televised you cant miss anything because they always have the camera focused on the game.

Definitely being at the live event is way more enjoyable because you can feel what the environment is like in the facility while when your watching it on Tv you are forced to imagine what the atmosphere is inside the building. It is also interesting how you are able to see the “set” in the facility. You see everything that happens and how it works, and you are able to enjoy and appreciate what is happening.

Just thought i would write something quick about that.

Thanks

I have been using Ustream.tv for about 5 or 6 months now, and i have honestly had no “Major” Problems with it. There have been a few service glitches that i think could be fixed but other than that it has been fine. So i decided to write a quick little review on it:1- Ease of access. I really do enjoy the control centre. It gives you easy access to your viewers and also gives you full control over your show. Weather it is how good your sound quality is, to having the ability to control your chat room. I do on the other hand think it would be a better idea to have a down-loadable program and broadcast your show from there, instead of going to the website every time to open it. I think it would just be easier to have the ability to open it from your own desktop.
