Featured Content: Save Time With Search and Replace - Software Demo

Here is a great example, and currently one of the top rated content pieces on Free IQ, of how you can teach somebody a tip that can save them a bunch of time by illustrating it within Free IQ in only minutes.

In this case, Ron Hutton effectively teaches how to edit a site by demonstrating a specific free software product called "Search and Replace 98."

During the nearly ten minute video, Ron shares his knowledge about replacing text, and shows that a search and replace for fifty web pages can be completed in just over 3 seconds, as opposed to the hours it may take to edit them by hand, simply by implementing a free software application. At the bottom of the page he also does a great job of:
Search and Replace 98

  • providing you with a link to go get the download
  • inviting you to view more of his tutorials on his Free IQ author page
  • inviting you to submit comments and suggestions on his personal site


    Check out the actual Free IQ product page to see how all of the information is layed out.

    And remember, if Ron was also offering a paid product he could have the 'sales letter' text lead to the "add to cart" button utilizing the Free IQ full service e-commerce platform.

    Is there something that you have recently explained to a friend that could be made into a similar tutorial? Do you have a trick you could teach someone or a product you can sell that would benefit somebody if you taught them how to use it and how it would make their life easier?

    These are simple examples of how Free IQ can get your point across - remember, everyone has something of value to teach someone else. Let us help connect your expertise to those in need, and you to the infromation you need.

    Featured Content: How To Arc Weld

    One fascinating aspect about this stage of our beta growth is watching as the variety of content expands. Maybe you're interested in learning how to hit a baseball, make a bunny out of a towel, or arc weld. In the past few days videos for each of these topics has been added to the site.Arc Welding

    The arc welding video is very interesting because it's posted by a video production company that is highlighting the dvd they produced for the arc welder. And the dvd is being sold through Free IQ. So, the video company is marketing their services as much as they are marketing the product that is for sale on behalf of their client. That's a pretty slick opportunity.

    Check out the teaser video. It's really well done. You get a very good sense for what you'll be purchasing. And the product page has a lot of detailed information about the dvd as well as the production company.

    So, as we think about the long tail of content topics, the possibilities are infinite. If more than a couple of people are interested, there is a market. The industries or professions that can benefit from video marketing are limitless. Who would have expected to see an arc welding demonstration? But it works, doesn't it?

    Rondo - Cello

    These two diverse content offerings are a great example of how flexible the Free IQ system is and how powerful it can be in delivering a wide variety of messages. And it doesn't need to be produced in a Hollywood shop to be compelling!

    Ethan's enjoyable performance and helpful instruction are a great way to enhance your leisure time as you ease into the weekend. Have a good one.

    Featured Content: A Piece of History for Golfers

    A special piece of golf and entertainment history is on Free IQ. In the 1930's golfing legend Bobby Jones filmed an instructional guide to golf with a number of celebrities of the time. The golf instruction holds up very well and the production values for the time are phenomenal. Any golfer would be fascinated by the Bobby Jones Downswing Tutorial: How to Break 90. And those who are interested by it may have a lot of interest in the accompanying DVD set as well.

    If you can't get out on the course this weekend, the next best thing is at www.freeiq.com/bobbyjones.

    Have a great weekend. And hit 'em straight.
