Ziki–hmm, a wiki for a human? I'm not entirely sure how the name came about however, I do like what the site does.
It allows you to manage your identity with sponsored links. Your online identity that is.
As with almost all of the social networking sites popping ( back in 99' they called them community-driven ), Ziki offers a great deal of networking tools for managing everything on the web that pertains to you. Your networks, profiles, portfolio sites, blogs–whatever.
I did a vanity search through google and along with the general links associated with my name was a sponsored link that lead right to my Ziki. Pretty cool. Considering I'm always competing with the Jazz muscian. Which really isn't fair because my name is spelled with a c. All though, he's a better musician.
Your Ziki profile is sponsored on Google, Yahoo and MSN for free. Yeap–free. Also, a little birdie told me that sometime next month, members would be able to buy directly sponsored links on the major search engines for better visibility and search results. You'll be able to create your own key words.
"- And we are pushing things even further. We don't want people to just "be found" on the Internet -- we want to enable them to be proactive in promoting themselves. Launching next month, members can buy directly sponsored links on major search engines to promote themselves and they can manage these ads with their own budget and keywords, so they can craft their own advertising message and target it at web sites of their choice.
Each profile contains your blog feeds and subscribers, keywords you've created for customized searches, networks and blogs that you've subscribed too and whole slew of other tools. To be honest, I would suggest putting aside a few minutes if your interested in signing up. Below is shot of my profile ( don't be distracted by my dashingly, dow-eyed, good looks ) and some of the tools available.
I've received a few referrals from the site and anticipate more as membership grows.
For most of the creatives out there with portfolios blogs, designers, writers, fine artists, this is an ideal way to get your name out there.
If you decide to join, hit me up.
Imagine a brand landscape defined by the individual; the consumer, the prospect, the common surveyor–a marketplace that evolves organically based on consumer interaction and feedback. A company and their agency-both accountable for their products, services and ideas. Knowledge is growing directly in relation to the amount of people contributing to it without regard for social or economical barriers. Language barriers don't exist. Knowledge is systematic growth based on interoperation without ration. Mass communications leveraged by the individual. Products and services rising and falling on their own merits. Someone googles "sucker born everyday," every minute. Advertising talks too much, art requires no explanation and we live in the middle. Create relevancy.
