Is there anything that we are not doing or working on doing that will help assure the success of Ron Paul's Payday?

sending a private message to everyone who has made positive comments to this idea.
this should be done the moment there are more banners in place i guess, then they can spread the word a lot easier.

poke ron paul website masters and ask them to link or put up a banner or write an article on it.

send a message to bloggers like on this website http://www.nolanchart.com/camps/conservative.php and ask if they want to do an article about this project.

I made a myspace page for Ron Paul's Payday http://www.myspace.com/ronpaulspayday

I'm also going to work on sending out messages to everyone that responded positively to the video. I'm not sure how to get someone at nolanchart to do an article, any clue how to get that done?

You got to hit the streets, we are very close to winning as much as the internet that is possible for us to persuade. We need to get the message out to people who don't use computers or are brainwashed by the Old Media

nice job with the myspace :) maybe make the link to the main website clickable. That is for the lazy people and its an invite to go there.

About the nolanchart, I was under the impression that there was an emailadres at the bottom, but now i checked and there isnt any. So I just posted a reply in which I asked if he could take a look and mention it, or do an article about it. Columnists, bloggers and journalists etc, they all need stories to write about, so they often welcome invitations on writing on a certain subject.
Here is the article that i replied to http://www.nolanchart.com/article696.html (Posted By: european Date: 2007-12-25 12:43:08)

Dailypaul should be interested in it aswell, and if they like the idea they will cover it. http://www.dailypaul.com/contact
You could also contact your local tv, radio, newspaper or other relevant media. They might be interested in doing a human interest story or political coverage on what a local is doing :) this works here in The Netherlands anyways.

stupid youtube will only let you send out about 30 messages an hour. This totally blows.

You're allowed to post announcements in the Grass Roots Forum. Post one about all the work you've done on the website (which looks great, btw). Wait a few hours, till that one drops off, then post one about the MySpace. :)

You can pimp my video, too. It may not be to your tastes, but it's done well on YouTube... 328 views and two honors at the moment:

#66 - Top Favorites (Today) - News & Politics (http://www.youtube.com/browse?t=t&p=4&s=mf&c=25&l=)
#57 - Top Rated (Today) - News & Politics (http://www.youtube.com/browse?t=t&p=3&s=tr&c=25&l=)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKhWNZp_kYw

I've pimped it twice and gotten the view counter moving pretty well. It's had some nice comments and it has to be moving some traffic to the the website. How are subscriptions going?

I was actually suprised my second video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BA5Z7HVFX4I didn't do so well. Of course I knew it wouldn't do as well as the first, but I didn't expect less than 1000 views. Hmmm, wonder what I did wrong.

The columnist you mention here seems interested in doing a story on Ron Paul's Payday. I also left a comment with John Armstrong of nolanchart as well. Hopefully he sees it and will be interested as well. Thanks for the ideas and the help spreading the word about Ron Paul's Payday. Keep it up!
