The New Opportunities of the Internet!

“The New Opportunities of the Internet”

Hello everyone and thank you for checking out my blog.  My name is Ricardo Villalba and I am the founder of Webplugin.biz.  A company I created to help small businesses take full advantage of the Internet.  I am not a rich person, and I mean that financially, I do consider myself a millionaire because of my wonderful family, but that’s another story.

I have been using the internet on and on for the last 7 years and I have seen the changes.  I am very thankful to craigslist.org, one of the best sites ever created.  I have made money using it and it didn’t cost me a penny, just time.

After 9/11, I relocated to New York City from Washington DC, and started working in Real Estate. And craigslist.org was the only site I used to post properties, for rent and sale.  Later on I started a small moving company and once again craigslist.org was the site to promote my services.  Since I am a graphic and web designer it was easy for me to post colorful ads with images, that would help me get ahead any competition.   But I was always looking for new methods to reach out to more audiences and expand my company and bring more revenues.   But with the economy slowing down, in 2005 I decided to go back to work for someone and moved back to the DC area.  But I never lost my entrepreneurial spirit.

Since 2006 I have been working as an Internet consultant, and a family and youth counselor. Presently I work at a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.  I share this, because I want you to understand that my true passion is to help people and see them succeed.   In 2006 I started Rice and Beans Entertainment, a company created to produce creative entertainment for the fast growing Latino market in Washington, DC.  Since I love comedy so much I started the DC Latino Comedy Showcase, in addition promoted music concerts, and other events.

To promote my events I always turned to the Internet and instead of using craigslist.org I started looking for other sites, since I had a different kind of product that I was trying to sell.  So I turned to sites like myspace.com, facebook.com, hi5.com and other social network sites.    Before Dell realized that they could make money in twitter I was already taking advantage of these sites.   Once again I was profiting from the Internet without spending a penny.  Eventually I did start spending some money, with per click ads on those social networking sites.  But the true and most important thing about these sites is the fact that you need to invest time.

Many business owners don’t have the time to spend online writing about their products or services or just to learn on how to take advantage of the Internet.  That is why I created WebPlugin.biz.  I have the experience and I have done my research, and I can still do some more research if necessary.  The internet once again is offering companies new opportunities to profit and grow.  Just having a site is not enough, is about driving traffic to your site but this time the internet can also offer you the opportunity to do this.  Before companies will promote their sites, on TV, and print ads.   Now you can do everything online.  Amazing hum?.   Just like this blog….  So if you are looking to expand your business, increase revenue, brand awareness, promote an event, sell a product, reach out to new clients, please feel free to contact me for a FREE CONSULTATION at 202-367-5544 or write me at webplugin.biz@gmail.com and or visit WebPlugin.biz.

Before I finish let me give credit to Lisa Irby from 2createawebsite.com, for her wonderful advices.  I learned about wordpress.com from her and she does have excellent advice if you are looking to do things yourself.

Thank you wordpress.com and thank you for reading my blog….

Sincerely,

Ricardo O Villalba
