We’re all looking for a funky bit of software or an online application, or just plain good advice to help us with our internet marketing plans are we not?

We want the GOOD STUFF!

Have you, like me, noticed a bunch of new applications along these lines recently? Are they worth the purchase price? If so how long ’til they get ‘blown’ by Google… So far ( I’m still testing it) it looks like SEnuke could be just such a tool and makes a lot of my other tools redundant.

Created by the IM equivalent of Dr Strangelove this baby has kilotons of bells and whistles that I’m exploring as we speak.

I’ve been a convert to the realities of web 2.0 marketing since last year- social bookmarking and networking, micro blogs and wikis and the hundreds of other ways to give your site:

1. Good quality backlinks
2. Credibility
3. Authority
4. Multiple rankings for your Keyword phrase on the engines

Like everyone who actually makes a living on the internet ( who isn’t a ‘guru’) I know these tactics work but they can be time consuming and the number of web 2.0 sites coming into being every day can make your brain explode!

While I’ve never got into outsourcing per se I do like automation and use it wherever possible, I mention a few ( both free and paid for) in the Tools & Resources page. I also like manageable ‘Buzz’ groups - a small team of like-minded marketers who help each other out by bookmarking or ‘buzzing’ each others sites and posts up the rankings.

So the new SEnuke application looks pretty good to me ( see video on the right) and I’ve just signed up for the free 7 day trial. Unlike a lot of ‘free’ subscription stuff out there this one uses PayPal so it’s easy to cancel at anytime. To me this shows the creators confidence in their product unlike some others where you have to jump through hoops to cancel. (Anyone else pissed off with Joel Comm and Mike Filsaime’s recent sneaky paid subscription sign ups camoflaged as ‘giving away free stuff’?)

I’m still playing with SEnuke ( going through the tedious but necessary ‘one-time’ process of creating new accounts for the 65 sites the software targets) but the elements that excite me most are on the Social Network and Social Bookmarking modules.

For example let’s say I ‘bookmark’ a newly updated blog of mine with SEnuke - I then contact my Buzz Group, who all use SEnuke, and ask them to randomly pick 5 bookmarking sites and, say, a couple of Networking sites to ‘vote’ for my post. This randomness will really help to avoid getting penalised by some of these sites.

I can see small Buzz groups of just 5 or 6 people making major contributions to each others rankings. In the past I’ve been a member of groups that became unmanageable size wise and became just too labor intensive for all concerned.

If, once you’ve finished the free trial of SEnuke and decide to keep subscribing let me know if you’s like to become part of such a small Buzz group and we’ll see how it goes.

PS: Yes of course I’ve added my affiliate link - I suggest you do the same if you like the program and promote it via your own blog or site.

PPS: Remember the old poor taste joke? Famous last words: 1945, The Mayor of Hiroshima, “What the f&@k was THAT!” well this could be the web 2.0 marketing equivalent. The only casualties being your competition, leave them wondering what just hit them!
