Max Your Profits, Manage Your FQL Factor

2009-01-05T02:52:00.001-08:00

By Dominic D. Johnstone

Have you ever heard of the FQL Factor? Well first, allow me to explain that that the FQL Factor is a success criteria called Financial Quantum Leap Factor. So let me restate the question.

You may want to consider what your FQL is for 2009. What is your 2009 FQL factor?

You see, we are all tuned into the current events. The global economy is suffering because of Fortune 1000 business failures and the loss of stability in the US economy. We are seeing significant economic collapse of magnitudes not known since the Depression.

Everyone is afraid of the crisis and people around the world are tuned into the news surrounding the unraveling of the economy. People are driven by their and worry about their own financial security.

So how does that relate to the question about your 2009 Financial Quantum Leap factor?

Well, lets face it. There is a bottom line in this world. You can either be a proactive, highly intentioned, financial achiever who PLANS their exponential success rate, or you can be one of the millions of people sitting there waiting for the next news story to bring you down, and predict your financial demise.

While the world is engaged in the doom and gloom of the worsening financial crisis, and charity takes a back seat to self-perpetuating worry, there is a better way to approach the coming year! First of all, be aware that the political change in the US is an excellent opportunity for America to get it right.

President Obama has a plan to correct the seemingly catastrophic damage Bush had afflicted on the US and the world through his time in office. It is going to take Obama two terms in office to correct the economic conundrum, but he can and will do it. He will begin positioning the US shortly for an economic turnaround.

Barack can only do so much at once but he can and will steer the country until crisis is over and wealth and abundance is upon his country once again.

I suggest that you could look at these times as an opportunity to make measurable changes in your life and in your mindset towards your wealth. This article regarding your FQL Factor for the coming year is not a suggestion to make any stereotypical resolutions that usually fail, but rather it is a call to action (CTA) to commit yourself fully to your affluence. I am committing myself exponential financial growth in 2009 and in years to come.

You see, even in the worst economies, there are those who rise above the crises, and commit themselves to their absolute success.

Your FQL Factor for 2009 may be to take yourself from 0 to $10,000 in sales this year. It may be to take yourself from $10,000 a month to $100,000 a month in online sales. I am recommending that people " entrepreneurs like you - look to not only double or triple their sales but to plan for and to commit to an Order of Magnitude Increase in their wealth in the coming year.

Correct! No matter what level you are at, you can look to making the next year be the year that you earn 10 times more wealth than last year. - 16655

Free Classified Ads and How they can Work for You

2009-01-05T01:29:00.001-08:00

By Alex Wu

Do you have a need to place a classified ad? Have you thought about using the free classified ads on the Internet? You should, as they are very effective. They reach a larger audience, and research has shown that about 90% of all people that have online service look for items, and services on the Internet. This is a good way to look for items wanted or needed, and to post items to sell or give away. It is a good place to advertise a service or post a job opening.

The Internet is a great resource for finding items and services that you want or need. There is a wealth of free classified websites on the Internet. Research has shown that about 90% of Internet users search online for items or services that they want or need. This gives the seller of the item or service a wide range of people that might be interested in what they are offering.

No matter what you are advertising you will reach a larger audience. It will be state-wide or nation-wide. This means a lot more potential customers or buyers for you. If you are a website designer, graphic artist, writer, photographer, or data entry specialist, you can advertise your services for free and work for yourself. You can also find employers who are looking to hire someone with your capabilities.

If you sell items, this is better than E-bay as you pay no fees. You can list your items for free. You can post a picture on some free ad sites, or some will give you a minimal charge, or if you are a member of that website you may not have a charge for a photo. Photos can always be e-mailed to interested parties.

Free classified websites are becoming a booming business on the Internet. The people who own the sites make money from the ads that are placed on their web pages by other businesses or companies. They are usually click ads so each click earns them money. So support these websites when you are on them and click the ads on them.

When you place a free ad, be sure to be specific in your descriptions about the item that you are selling. Give an e-mail contact address. I would set up an e-mail account just for the classified ads, so you do not have to post your main e-mail address. Only give your address if you find a buyer. Make sure to let the buyer know that postage is extra if the item will be sent.

When placing an ad be specific about what you are offering. If it is an item, be detailed about it. If you are offering a service give your years of experience and qualifications, and be prepared to show references and past work, or a portfolio. If you are offering a employment be specific about the experience and qualifications required for the job, and give a salary range and post if there is a benefit package or not. Specific ads will get more interest.

If you are an employer, be sure to put in the ad how much experience is needed, if a degree is needed, and if there are benefits offered and the range of pay that can be expected. This will help you to get the right kind of candidates applying for your jobs. It will also reach people outside the state that may be moving to your state that is highly qualified. Take advantage of the far reach of the Internet. - 16655

Generating A Niche Presence On Google

2009-01-04T04:41:00.001-08:00

By Rob Metras

Let's start at the beginning. Just what is a niche marketing? A niche is defined as "a small space or notch". A second definition is "a space or activity for which a person is best fitted". Both definitions apply but especially the second. Niche marketing therefore can be described as marketing within a well defined area in which the person or company is well fitted.

With Google's dominance in the world of search engines it is important to have a site appear as close to the top of a page of search results as possible. When people submit words or phrases into a search engines looking for something like a product, service, or information, it unusual for them to look beyond the first page or so of search results. For most people the only reason to search beyond the first or second page is if nothing relevant is found on them.

For example a travel site that uses atravel and avacationa as its primary keywords will most likely become lost among its competitors. Forget the second or first page, you might not even be able to find yourself on Google without spending a significant amount of time searching. In order to be highly placed, or adominatea Google listings it is critical to establish a well defined niche and generate keywords that will match this niche. Online marketing really works, and you will begin to find this once you have a niche established.

An advertisement for a agreat vacationa to anywhere is not going to help you stand out. However a featured vacation to California's Catalina Island, Michigan's Upper Peninsula, or Washington's San Juan Islands will move you closer to finding your niche. The reality of a niche is that it should be a thing you know as well as, or better then anybody else.

Supply and demand play a key role here. Imagine the scenario in which Google and the Internet would have existed back at the time the hula hoop was invented. A few press releases by the inventor would have announced the product to the world. People would have turned to Google and typed in "hula hoop". Guess what? All roads would lead to the inventor's web site. He would have "dominated Google". As it turns out he did quite well without the Internet's help but you get the idea.

Whether you are offering a product or a service, it needs to be in demand and have a limited number of suppliers. It is also a huge help if you know what you are talking about, which it is likely you will if you are offering your own product or service. Large demand, few competitors, and your personal credibility can be made to add up to a dominant Google search position.

Starting a successful online marketing business isn't necessarily easy and you'll likely fail if you don't find your niche early on. A good approach to finding your marketing niche is through the process of brainstorming. Let your mind roam free and think of as many marketing possibilities as you can. Make a list, and having done so look into the supply and demand possibilities for each item. As stated previously, if you find something that has high demand which only you and perhaps a few others can supply you're well on your way to a successful niche marketing business.

Opportunities at times stare us in the face and we don't even realize it. Just give some thought to what you have to offer to the world. It's probably much, much more than you realize. Then look for the unique thing, that which other's find interesting or important and market it. Sounds simple, but it takes work. Success isn't guaranteed of course, not many things in life are, but with perseverance and maybe a little luck you can make your niche market work for you. - 16655

3 Way Links.net Review. Does It Help Your SEO?

2009-01-04T00:35:00.001-08:00

By Christopher Chandler

I will be the first to admit that when I first saw this SEO linking system known as 3 way Links by the web guru Jon Leger.. I was a little skeptical.

It seems like one of those "too good to be true" deals that I generally stay away from. But I had a friend that joined and was giving it rave reviews, so I decided to take a closer look at this "miracle solution" to linking.

Looking at it now after being on the service for almost a year now, I would say it is not "miracle service" for it cannot grab the #1 spot in a highly competitive niche market, like "insurance" but I know for a fact it has helped me to grab the top rankings in some smaller niche keyword phrases.

It has helped me get to the top of the engines for several "long tail" keyword phrases that requires less link popularity to rank for. It will take a few weeks but it is definitely worth the wait.

The way the links grow is slow, and as your network of links grow, your PR grows.

At first, I tried this on sites that I did not care much about and saw good results the rankings began to climb.

The 3waylinks.net system allows webmasters to add up to 50 domains in their link network in exchange for thier monthly fee. In the beginning I only added 3 of my own websites. I decided to do some otehr things and then months went by and noticed a doubling in traffic to those site. I am now convinced it is worth it. To this day, I am still a member.

On one of my sites on the network, I was able to acheive a top 3 ranking for a highly competitive term (which I will not reveal here..but be assured, I was extremely pleased...

A few tips I will leave with you about 3 way networks:

1. DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT - If you want to test it, test it on sites that are marginally important so that you can find out for yourself if it is good.

2. CONTINUE TO LINK TRADE IN OTHER PLACES - It is definitely dangerous to leave all your linking in only one place. IF you will build a strong network of links all over the net, it will be much better. This will disguise any possible footprint...even though I have not found this to be a problem any way.

3. IT DON'T HELP PR - It didn't help my sites with PR anyway. I find PR to be not such a huge factor in rankings anyway. While I dod keep an aye on it some, I don't base my SEo solely around the concept like some SEO "experts".

4. YOU NEED SOME WEBMASTER SKILLS - The install of the code could make a web newbie cringe, but it is not difficult. IF you need help, email me.

5. CHOOSE THE RIGHT KEYWORDS - I usually pick highly related keywords that are not going against huge competition in terms of sites optimizing for it AND also produces a good bit of traffic according to Google's Adword Keyword Tool.

If you are looking to get more traffic, build rankings, and have an extra way to dominate Google, I highly recommend 3waylinks.net - 16655

Home Based Businesses Isnt All Fun and Games

2009-01-03T04:08:00.001-08:00

By Thomas Griffin

Do you often daydream about working at home? Before you hand in your letter of resignation, please read what Jan K., The Proofer has to say about the pros and cons of being your own boss. These are points to ponder before you begin your pursuit of a work-at-home job.

Working at Home Isn"t All Fun and Games

I enjoy telling people that I "work at home." I can see that wistful look in their eyes, and I can hear it in their voices when they say, "That must be nice." And then for about five minutes, they do a little daydreaming about what it would be like to "work at home." I never explain to them about the measure of self-discipline it takes, and how great are the temptations to take a "break" and reorganize my sock drawer when I find myself faced with working on a project that is less than interesting (or worse yet, "not as profitable" as other projects). Why burst their bubble? Let them daydream awhile?.

Working at home can be all the wonderful things that those people daydream about. Setting my own hours, working at my own pace (project deadlines permitting), running to the market at 1 o"clock on a Wednesday afternoon when there"s nobody there---these are just a few of the plusses of working at home. For parents (whether it is the mom or dad, or both working at home), being able to adjust their working schedule to school schedules, being able to take the kids to the orthodontist or to soccer practice, working at home is a definite plus. For people who don"t work at home and who want to work at home, it is probably hard to think of even one minus. But the fact of the matter is, the minuses do exist---in abundance.

It is not my purpose here to ruin all your hopes or plans to establish yourself as a work-at-homer. In fact, I do encourage you to follow that dream and be your own boss. However, I want you to take just a few minutes to take stock of your situation and once and for all decide if working at home really is in your best interest.

First, and obviously, you have to have a job skill that is amenable to the at-home environment. If you trim poodles on the weekend and think you can turn it into a full-time at-home business, then look around. Do you live in a two-bedroom apartment on the second floor and just do your neighbor"s poodle once a month (but you do it really well)? Or do you live a four-bedroom ranch house with a three-car garage that can be made over into "Donna"s Clip Joint" and happen to live in an urban neighborhood where everyone has pets? And even if you do, what about all the permits that you will need? Will you be able to pursue this type of work at home, and do so legally?

The most applicable work-at-home job skills involve the use of a computer, the Internet, phone, fax, and other small business/office machines. You can hardly drive from home to the grocery store without seeing those signs nailed to telephone poles: "Got a Computer? Earn up to $2000 at home!" Of course, you can, but can you?

For the sake of argument, let"s presume then that you have a computer and an assortment of small business machines, and that you do indeed have some skill that you believe can be marketed. Let"s focus on you for a minute: Are you self-disciplined? Are you organized? Do you have the proper workspace where you can work undisturbed? Are you able to face a workday where you have no supervision or guidance? Can you work at home, day after day, without having the people contact that you would typically find "on the job"? When you have overlapping projects, will you be able to cope with the necessary prioritizing so that you get the time-critical job done on time without jeopardizing the next job in line? - 16655

The Man Who Offered to Beat Me Up

2009-01-03T02:54:00.001-08:00

By Dr. Joe Vitale

Today I received a long letter from a man who created a new self-defense system. He claims he can defeat anyone in under 3 minutes.

He wants me to promote him and his method. He went on to say he'd be happy to meet with me to prove his skills.

What did he have in mind?

He wants to beat me up.

I'm serious.

"If I can defeat you within 3 minutes," he said in his letter, "then you promise to promote me and my products. Deal?"

He went on to give me the contact information for his agent so I could set up the match.

It might have made an interesting webcast. I can just see the headline:

"51-year-old formerly obese Internet Marketing Expert meets 30-year-old Superman-fit Martial Arts Expert in Quick-Kill Match. Register now."

Gee, I wonder who would win?

I'd lose even if I went armed.

What would you have done?

How would you have responded to his offer?

Unless you're a fighter looking for a match, you'd probably toss this offer in the trash.

I often wonder what people are thinking. Does this guy really think I'll fight him? And then, if I lose, I'll gladly smile and start marketing him?

I don't claim to be a fighter and am not seeking bouts. I'm also not seeking new clients. Especially clients who want to break my nose to prove they are better than me.

When you reach out to anyone, keep in mind that no one likes to be told they are inferior. It is not a good way to win friends and influence people. In fact, it's not a good way to do much of anything.

I think the lesson here is that we all have egos. The better way to approach people is to put your ego under theirs.

In other words, be willing to lower your status. Don't flaunt your stuff. Instead, show your weakness and ask for help.

This nervy fighter might have done better by offering to teach me his new method, not offering to embarrass me with it.

Contrast his behavior to that of a man in Florence, Italy. This gent heard I loved leather jackets. He went and bought two of them and sent them to me, gratis.

I'll never forget *him*.

This works in your marketing, too.

Rather than boast that you or your business is the greatest, focus on how you or your business can make your customer or client the greatest.

Or surprise your customers by giving them gifts (much like this article is a gift). People love to be surprised on the positive side.

See the difference?

This redirection of focus can trigger a true transformation in your sales.

Take heed.

See you in the ring. - 16655

Managed Dedicated Hosting for Your E-Commerce Web Site

2009-01-03T01:05:00.001-08:00

By Ben Ingham

If you business has outgrown shared hosting usually the next step in the upgrade is a managed dedicated server. This type of hosting allows you rent your own server. This hosting provider typically maintains a stock of servers and will operate its own network and data center. The important point is that this server is for your exclusive use only, you do not share resources with other users or websites.

If you don't have the in house technical experience, you could consider hiring a technical person to handle these tasks if you feel the self managed server is what your business needs. Check out the many freelancing sites where you could advertise for additional system administration work. Unless you have some technical experience with web servers you may struggle to perform your own server management and administrative tasks. However your host may be able to perform additional task at an additional hourly rate.

With Managed dedicated hosting the hosting provider gives very basic technical support and basic system help. They will have technicians on site on a 24 hour basis in order to carry out a reboot of your server if neccessary. Increasing numbers of dedicated server providers give access to a "reboot switch" or offline management. In most instance you still have complete technical control thee server, and additionally you will also have access to optional managed services such as an upgrading service, security hardening, firewalls, and online backup services

Managing your server and carrying out routine tasks such as setting up users and creating mail boxes much easier if you install a "control panel." The most popular control panels are Cpanel (Web Host Manager) Plesk, Helm and H-Sphere. A server without a control panel is sometimes known as a "root server." If this is a Linux server this will often require command line expertise. Dedicated hosting providers usually offer a choice of operating systems which are usually Windows 2003 and Linux (Centos, Ubuntu, Fedora etc).

When deciding on an unmanaged dedicated server or a managed server, explore all options before making a decision. Online review sites and forums make it easier to research the various hosting companies and find out what is on offer. Quite often its better to go for quality of service rather than price, as the old adage that you get what you pay for applies to dedicated server hosting, as with anything else. - 16655

How To Manage An Adwords Campaign, After The Launch

2009-01-02T02:08:00.001-08:00

By Brian Basch

So you finally made it! You worked out the bids, positioning, keywords and market research. Also you are a couple of steps ahead of the pack as you have taken advantage of Google's keyword research tools. Looks like your advertising promotions are all set for the next 6 months. Is there anything left to do?

Do not think you are finished because your work has just begun. Tracking your ads is your number one priority. When you do this you will be able to gage the actual productivity of each ad and ensure maximum performance.

You can do this in a variety of ways. Adwords will help you with this as it has a tool to show you the exact amount of traffic an advertisement is drawing. You can also do this with tools on your website. From these results you can calculate how many leads and sales were produced by a single advertisement.

You will need to be aware of this, as a failing Adword campaign will eat up your advertising budget. It will not only waste your money but will prevent you from concentrating on the ads that are pulling, and bring in worthless leads. After all you will still be paying money for your unproductive ad.

So how do you fix an unproductive ad? If it is placed well, within the first 5-10 pages, and is drawing traffic but no sales, you may want to target your keyword better. It is very tempting to use a broad based keyword to draw in the traffic.

Unfortunately frequently searched keywords are not always targeted for your specific market. They are the keywords that searchers begin their search with but not necessarily the ones that will bring potential customers to your website.

You will have to strike a happy medium between general keywords that draw the crowds and keywords that are more specialized and will bring in the sales.

The bottom line is that if you want a successful Adwords campaign you need to watch your campaign like a hawk. Remember the success of your business will depend on the efficiency of your advertising campaign. - 16655

How You Can Become a Super Affiliate

2009-01-02T01:58:00.001-08:00

By Jim Jones

The humdrum existence of going to the office day after day doing the usual 9-5 shift is a trying task for those who have lived all their lives doing so. This is why the convenience of doing work at home under amazingly flexible working hours is a dazzling prospect to them. Doing work at home that is as fulfilling as having a career working for a computer on the 19th floor of a skyscraper is already a possibility in these modern times. This is because the jungle-like network that is the internet has given birth to a business that has given some people practically new lives doing nothing but so.

This particular business allows people to work at home under flexible working hours. There is no boss to scream around putting pressure on everyone about the deadline at hand. There is no clutter of messy paperwork that needs to be completed the soonest possible time. Conveniences such as these are experienced by those who are into affiliate marketing, the newest way to earn money without having to go through all sorts of routine found in regular employment.

Those who have been in the business long enough can attest to the fact that it is a lucrative business indeed, one that can actually give people things that they could not possibly possess or experience under ordinary circumstances.

The business called affiliate marketing involves an affiliate's promotion of a merchant's website. Here the website owned by the affiliate is made to advertise and market the website of the merchant through the affiliate program that they run. Whenever someone clicks on the merchant's website promoted by the one owned by the affiliate, the affiliate is given a commission. This is in recognition of his effort in helping the merchant make a sale.

The system involved in affiliate marketing seems easy, but it also takes a lot of diligence and perseverance for one to be able to penetrate it thoroughly. Those who want to get into this type of business should possess the necessary skills to be able tread through the industry with confidence and self-assurance. Still, other factors are needed by one to be able to really break in. Knowledge about the business at hand is very important as it dictates the actions that are to be done by people who are into it.

The leading figure in affiliate marketing is the super affiliate. He is basically an e-mail marketer who collects large databases of e-mail addresses through newsletters. Super affiliates are also those who know the business even better than affiliate managers as a result of their knowledge about the affiliate marketing industry inside out. Those who want to be super affiliates should know that becoming a super affiliate is not easy, because it takes a lot to be able to master the marketing craft.

Becoming a super affiliate means having one's own website and autoresponder. These tools will help a lot in one's facilitation of the business. Building one's own list is another. Creating a loyal customer base and taking care of it is one secret that successful super affiliates have. Making good customer relations is also important if one wants to be a super affiliate to reckon with.

Continuing to market to the people on one's list is another must if one wants to succeed as a super affiliate. Sending out quality content in lieu of ads is an advantage as products are marketed better whenever enough information is given about them.

Building traffic to one's own site is also one of the most essential points in the affiliate marketing business. Making one's affiliate links his own business will allow him to build a strong relationship with his customers, enabling him to market to them over and over again.

The most important thing one should remember if he wants to become a super affiliate is to treat affiliate marketing as a business first and foremost. If he is capable of doing this, then he will never have to go back to the humdrum existence of working the 9-5 shift. A career as a super affiliate in the business which will change his life forever could possibly take that unexciting job's place. - 16655

Why Google wants you to know how to get their Ads for FREE!

2009-01-02T00:46:00.001-08:00

By 5250

My name is Rephael Inbar, and I am a successful serial enterpernuer with years of experience in internet, online and technology companies. Feel free to Google my name to see I am a real person with real credentials.

I recently had a chance to interview the great team at WebBusinessSecrets.com whose flagship product is titled "Get Google Ads Free."

In April of 2007 "Get Google Ads Free" was launched, and the effect was nothing less than equal to "the shot heard around the world!"

Within just weeks people everywhere were talking about it, and other top-notch online marketers were scurrying to sell it as an Affiliate for the company.

But here's a little insight that 99.9% of everyone the world over doesn't know:

The Product's greatest endorser is none other than Google itself!

That's right. As shocking as it may seem, Google has NO problem with the course that reveals how anyone can get ads on their search engine for Free!

Now, at this point I know you must be curious as to how such a thing is possible, as Google gets its M0NEY from the sale of both AdWords (PPCs) and AdSense (where webmasters allow Google to show their ads on their pages).

One might think that any information that revealed how an advertiser could get their AdWords pay-per-clicks free would be damaging to Google, and therefore Google would not want anyone finding out about it, right?

WRONG! It seems that the secret system developed by the retired native New York doctor contains an interesting "twist" that while allowing advertisers to eliminate their AdWords costs, it does not reduce a single D0LLAR in AdWords revenue for Google.

In fact, just the opposite!

I cannot give away the secret here because that's why it's available in the first place.

But I can tell you that with the application of what's inside "Get Google Ads Free" that:

- Google loses NO money

- Google actually can produce even more M0NEY!

- Advertisers gain an instant almost unfair advantage over anyone not knowing what's inside "Get Google Ads Free!"

- Advertisers can now afford to outbid their competition!

- Advertisers are not at risk any longer as their advertising budgets N0 longer matter!

Wow! And this is just the beginning!

Now, where's the definitive PROOF that Google endorses the amazing system shown in "Get Google Ads Free?"

I asked this question to company spokesperson and Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Mr Todd Coutrin, to which he responded:

---

"We started our launch like we always do with any product online, using Google AdWords to offer our Product.

"We used keywords that contained the word 'free' so we anticipated the usual HOLD these keywords usually cause any campaign using them to experience.

"But when our campaign was paused by Google for a tad more time than what we regularly anticipated, then we got concerned.

"I actually placed a call directly to Google at 1-866-2-GOOGLE and spoke at length with a customer services rep who said she'd check into what was happening.

"She returned my call 16 hours later and informed me that due to the specific nature of the Product in question (i.e., the ebook "Get Google Ads Free!") their team at Google secured the product, read it all the way trough, and then realizing it would NOT hurt their *revenue* but actually increase it, they immediately un-paused and resumed our ads"

---

Amazing! They actually got what amounts to a Signed Certificate of APPROVAL from Google itself!

Therefore, anyone who questions the truth or legality concerning "Get Google Ads Free!" need not fret at all.

Yet, the usual "naysayers" seemed to ignore the obvious fact that if Google had a problem with "Get Google Ads Free!" then we all wouldn't be seeing all the PPC ads at Google each time we type in the keywords and phrases:

- free ads

- free advertising

- "Get Google Ads Free"

- free ppc

- free adwords

And so forth!

Yet, there are many very stubborn, even foolish, among us ...

The "Crybaby Syndrome

To be fair, I must also inform you of those who seem to be out to get the company for sharing their amazing secret with the world.

In what seems nothing more than a ploy to get attention, a UK online firm operated by two "wanna-be" law students have a Blog that talks the usual trash about the Product.

The Blog's owner, Rob Scott, talks a big game by claiming the secret system to be nothing short of a scam! He even recklessly throws around the potentially libelous phrase ".con (Ooops, I meant .com)" as an attempt at childish humor in order to bash the firm's name.

What's shocking is that this individual is actually a student of law (at least that's what he claims) so one would think that he should perhaps check out the facts before proceeding with such careless remarks.

After all, he admits severally that he "never even ordered the ebook" so how could he truly know one way or the other if it was a valid system - not to mention it is assumed he's at least reasonably intelligent since (according to him) he got into law school, that he would be able to see for himself the firm's Affiliates' ads all over Google, and therefore reason that Google itself is perhaps the firm's chief supporter.

But stubbornness abounds, I suppose.

Ironically Rob says that the only reason he attacks the firm is because "it's a no brainer that this must be a scam," and he got "tired of seeing all those little AdSense ads on his page that people kept clicking on" (which by the way only stood to get him lots of M0NEY!) -- yet he accepts D0NATIONS on his site as a poor, struggling law student in need of paying for his education, and rather than legitimately earn an INC0ME from AdSense with an APPROVED Product.

Sadly, Rob actually censors most of his Blog so that others who wish to post POSITIVES concerning "Get Google Ads Free!" can't even do so. (*But what would you expect from a "wanna-be" lawyer?)

He even posts what appears to be an actual response by the firm's lawyer, but which is perhaps nothing more than his own posts disguised and designed to make himself look better (as anyone can see that the dialogue appears "manufactured" instead of genuine).

What some people will do to project themselves as "Savior to the rest of us" and "The People's Advocate." How ridiculous indeed.

Despite the "crybaby" from across the pond, Rob Snot (Ooops! I must have meant "Rob Scott!") has failed miserably to put even a dent in the firm's sales!

Plus, traffic is on the rise shooting up from an average of 14,OOO visitors daily to now well above 2O,OOO visitors daily (a jump of 42% in daily traffic alone! -- Keep up the good work, Rob!!)

Anyway, don't be dissuaded in your decision to build your online business by eliminating your Google AdWords costs, as the course "Get Google Ads Free!" not only reveals precisely how you can do this, but it goes 10 steps further by giving you all kinds of other amazing strategies I can't even begin to allude to here.

Plus, the e-Course comes with countless resources that go far beyond the usual variety of instantly-clickable extra values!

Lastly never forget that even though quite elderly now, Dr Jon Cohen has even set new records finishing ahead of himself by now having:

- Grossed over $4OO Million in revenues!!

- and SAVED over $1OO Million in Google advertising costs!!

- attained a personal wealth above $8O million

...all due to his own system!

*NOTE: Rob Scott is broke and demands D0NATIONS! (Ha!)

Talk about putting your M0NEY where your mouth is!!

So if you'd like to get in on all the action, then go grab this amazing "BREAKTHROUGH" for yourself only at:

Emerald Diamond Engagement Rings

2009-01-01T05:39:00.001-08:00

By Alice Sy

Finding a perfect pair of ring to seal a promise could be at some point exhausting yet you still find yourself in the midst of this seemingly endless hunt for those perfect bands. After all, you would not go through much of these frets if not for one ultimate goal, that is to finally say yes to "forever. And what could best symbolize this promise of enduring love than a diamond ring.

Diamond rings signify love, dedication, and loyalty a couple shares. Choosing a design for engagement rings says a lot about personalities and characters of couples.

Couples who prefer traditional look goes for an emerald cut diamond engagement rings. Aside from its stunning vintage look, this ring also comes in a surprisingly reasonable price.

Emerald cut diamond engagement ring was one of the foremost innovations of the wealthy class during the reign of Pope Innocent III. Originating from plain metal bands, decorative rings were invented having gemstones incorporated in its design. These rings bear initials conveying affection and honor. These initials were expressed by using sentimental gems that literally spells "regards. Stones used were emerald, ruby, and garnet among others.

The first emerald cut diamond engagement ring was recorded in 1477, upon engagement of Mary of Burgundy to Archduke Maximillian of Austria.

The emerald cut diamond engagement ring has a rectangular shaped diamond with slightly cropped corners. Originally, this method of cutting was intended for emeralds, however, by giving consideration to market demands and favoring its sophisticated shape or appearance, the cut was later used on diamonds too.

Thus, emerald cut diamond engagement rings came out. This kind however has few facets as compared to other cuts. Due to this, clarity is quite affected. Clarity refers to the translucency or flawlessness of the stone.

Yet ironically, that same shape all the more adds to the popularity of this brand for emerald shapes are found to create balance to the elongated shape of the finger, leaving the hand with that graceful, elegant look. - 16655

Direct Mail Email Marketing

2009-01-01T03:42:00.001-08:00

By Jeff Dedrick

Direct email marketing is an email-based marketing campaign that allows you to send "unsolicited" emails to a target audience in order to create or raise awareness of a particular product that you are promoting. This is the only cost-effective form of email marketing that guarantees you a more accurate reach to your target customers.

Direct marketing is sometimes confused as spam or junk but what differentiates it are the elements used in direct email marketing. The two main elements are segmentation systems; which ensure the messages go to the right targeted group, and the use of email personalization techniques; which is a technique in which the recipient of the email is addressed individually hence grabbing his attention.

Junk mails or spam are more of unsolicited commercial emails whereas direct email marketing is more of permission based where the clients is wooed to opt in and has the opportunity to opt out willingly. For successful direct email marketing, you need to have strategies in place and careful preparation. By sending professional and attractive emails to clients, direct email marketing allows your business to generate a more specific response from each particular segmented group.

It is advantageous in that it allows your business to assess performance of email marketing more accurately, thanks to the tools and mechanisms used. Such mechanisms allows your business to assess among other things the amount of messages opened as at a particular date, the number of email recipients who opted out of your mailing list and the number of emails that were not delivered to the customer's server. There are various softwares available today that ensure high deliverability of emails to clients by helping you to create attention-grabbing emails.

Your business needs to have in place a good email marketing strategy, one that will increase the chances of your target audiences opting in or not out of your emailing lists. Know what products to market to what specific group.

Keep in mind that inasmuch as direct email marketing results are normally very accurate, they are not guaranteed. A badly planned email and wrong use of client names will end up being viewed as spam, annoy the client and be deleted from the inbox. Ensure you have a perfect email marketing strategy. Your strategy will hugely reflect on the response rate.

Apart from engendering new business, direct email marketing also builds your clients' devotion, reinforces erstwhile clientele relationships and ultimately creates the expected profit margins. - 16655

Niche Affiliate Program - Tips to Make it to the Top

2009-01-01T02:23:00.001-08:00

By Richard Steaney

There are a variety of great benefits involved with affiliate marketing. You can have all the benefits of an impressive income while working from home. However, you will have to be successful to turn this into your full time job.

Success does not happen overnight and if you have made the decision to join internet affiliate programs you are going to have to put some hard work into them. It is easy to make money as an affiliate if you work hard and learn some tips and tricks but it is not so easy if you do the minimum of work and just assume the money will roll in by itself.

There are many people who never make affiliate marketing work. So if you want to avoid being a failure and you want to learn to succeed, here are some steps to success that you need to follow.

Make Sure the Merchant Provides Marketing Resources

To be a successful affiliate you will need to make sure that the merchant you are working for is able to give you sufficient marketing resources and tools. These marketing resources and tools can make the difference between success and failure so do not underestimate their worth.

When you go with companies that provide you the marketing resources, it's much easier to be successful. Often they'll provide you with the banners and web copy you need, and all you have to do is use it.

Set Strict Daily Working Hours

It is essential to set strict hours to work each day if you want to be successful at affiliate marketing. This applies, no matter what kind of program you are working with. You will need to get the work done and the fact that you are working at home does not mean you can cut your hours or let other things interfere. Work is work, wherever you do it, and allocating strict working hours to your affiliate program contributes to your success.

Work with a Mentor in the Business

When you have set your goal for success with online affiliate marketing programs you should have a good business mentor. They will be able to share their experience while providing you with some interesting insider tips. You can use these to increase your success in the business. However, you will want a mentor who is already successful to gain the most benefits.

Always Work on Traffic Building Techniques

You should always work on your traffic building techniques because without traffic you will not make money. Whichever internet programs you are affiliated with, you need to build up traffic to your website in order to attract customers and make sales.

If you use the above steps, you can become more successful and organized and this should boost your affiliate income. Using these tips can make the difference between small earnings and large ones and the excitement from making good earnings can spur you on to work even harder and achieve even more success. - 16655

Professional SEO Consulting

2008-12-31T04:07:00.000-08:00

By Chris Jonathan

The concept of using an expert SEO Consultant company to help rank your website in the major search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN definitely has a slight intrigue.Having a Internet Marketing SEO Consulting service taking care or even training your staff in proper site analysis, keyword research, link building, site optimization as well as putting together an ethical strategy indeed does have a price.

Step one in selecting an SEO consultant to help improve the performance of your website is to become an educated consumer and get familiar with how search engine optimization works. I recommend starting reviewing Google's free content in their "Webmaster Tools" section for a quick understanding of the basics. At the very least, reviewing this information so you can sprinkle some industry-specific jargon on your prospective SEO experts during your conversations will signal to most SEO consultants to provide you a greater level of detail then they may provide to someone less familiar with the search engine optimization process.

Media Mix & Dates

Increase traffic to your website

Reaching the top ten positions on any of the keywords will not be possible without the help of an SEO consulting.

Pound of Measurement

Since the world of SEO has become competitive, SEO consultants may advise the use of a PPC campaign to reach the target customers. Giving an accurate price for marketing services at times may not be an easy task. There are numerous factors that need to be kept in mind while pricing for the SEO services. Some of the prominent ones are the external and internal market forces and also the time available at hand. Reaching the top ten positions on any of the keywords will not be possible without the help of an SEO consulting. SEO consulting services makes sure that you are not left behind the competition. - 16655

The Biggest Challenges for Entrepreneurs

2008-12-31T03:01:00.000-08:00

By Thomas Griffin

When I saw the January issue of Entrepreneur Magazine I was thrilled. Cover copy had a teaser on it to the effect that entrepreneurs had been surveyed and inside were their answers. I was certain that, finally, someone was paying attention to entrepreneurs who were striving for a successful business. It was time to hear from us little guys!

I can't tell you how surprised I was as I began to read the article. Their idea of an "entrepreneur" and mine were as different as night and day. I always classified an entrepreneur as someone like the "Mom and Pop" coffee shop around the corner, the family run produce market in town, or the 18 to 24 year old who had come up with a fantastic "gizmo" and was scooped up into a corporation as their newest genius. Let me give you a quote from the article that will clue you into its idea of an "entrepreneur".

To explain the method used for the survey they state, "Entrepreneur magazine and PricewaterhouseCoopers "Entrepreneurial Challenges Survey" is an annual telephone survey of more than 300 CEOs of privately held, U.S.-based businesses recognized for their sustained, rapid growth. They average $31.5 million in annual revenue with an average of 185 employees, and have an ongoing annual growth rate of more than 23 percent......"

That definitely was not my picture of an entrepreneur. I don't know too many entrepreneurs who average $31.5 million annually, or employ 185 people. To me, that's a pretty successful company on its way to being a corporation. We should all be such entrepreneurs!

At any rate, I continued reading and I must say the information was worth the read, and the business of doing business can apply to those of us who aren't quite making that $31.5 million per year yet. Here's what the survey discovered.

What were considered their biggest challenges for 2006?

* 73% - Retention of key workers * 38% - Developing new products/services * 36% - Expansion to domestic markets * 35% - Increased productivity * 28% - Upgrading technology * 23% - Creating business alliances * 21% - Better management of cash flow * 14% - Expansion outside the U.S. * 13% - Improving risk management * 11% - Finding new financing * 11% - Buying another company or launching a spinoff * 7% - Preparing company for sale * 2% - Going public

Now when you stop and think about it, that's pretty much what most entrepreneurs think about each year. Maybe not to the extent of expanding to foreign markets or launching a spinoff, but to keep your business perking along the road of improvement - all the rest are considered.

The next part of the survey was interesting because entrepreneurs were given a list of several "wild-card" factors that could affect business in 2006. When asked which three would be most harmful to their business, here's what they said:

* 47% - Unstable U.S. economy * 43% - Rising health-care costs * 41% - Shortage of qualified workers * 40% - Weak market demand * 24% - Rising oil/energy costs * 24% - Rising interest rates * 22% - New government regulations * 18% - Weaker capital spending * 14% - Weakening world economy * 12% - Increased global competition * 11% - Decreased access to capital * 10% - Sudden drop in U.S. real estate market * 10% - Tax increases * 9% - Inflation

So maybe my entrepreneurs and those surveyed are not really that much different in thinking. The outlook of most entrepreneurs is probably optimistic, or will be unless more unforeseen disasters strike.

Even after the huge devastation of 9/11, within two quarters we were back to the same level of optimism as we had before. People get used to dealing with tough circumstances and factor them in, but are not swayed by them. When you really think about it; isn't that what most entrepreneurs are like?

If they're not, then they aren't entrepreneurs by my way of thinking. - 16655

Baby Phat Rush Card - Review

2008-12-30T03:01:00.001-08:00

By Dan Moskel

The Rush card also known as the baby phat rush card is a prepaid debit card. It was created by Russell Simmons a co founder of the hip-hop record label Def Jam.

The baby phat prepaid card works this way; you make a deposit on your card, then you can use your card to make purchases, then the funds to pay for those purchases are deducted from your card. The card offers 100% guaranteed approval.

There is no credit check or chex systems verification. You can have a card issued to you in black or in pink.

This card offers free direct deposit. To use this you simply fill out a form and turn that into your employer.

Then you checks will be deposited into your rush card. You will still get a breakdown on your hours and how much the deposit was.

With this card you receive free online account access. You can also access your cash at over 800,000 ATM's.

You can make purchases using your rush card online and over the phone. You can also use your account and write physical paper checks.

To use this feature you visit the website and input the person or business that you want to write a check to. This includes name, amount of payment and address.

Then press send a real physical check will be sent to the business or person. This can save you money by not having to buy money orders again.

With this service and direct deposit you will also save money by not having to pay for check cashing fees.

However, we do not recommend the rush card. This is because of the number of fees they have that other prepaid cards do not carry.

An example is the convenience fee. This is a fee you are charged every time you use your card.

The convenience fee is $1.00 with a monthly maximum of $10.00. However you will be charged a convenience fee for every purchase you make in a month.

You will have to wait till the end of the month and full calendar month later to have your extra charges refunded to your account.

That can end up being a full 2 months before you are refunded. This is unbelievable especially because many of us use are card more than ten times in a month.

Furthermore to be charged for every purchase you make seems outrageous. Then to have to wait for a full calendar month to expire before you are issued your refund is unbelievable.

Also to use bill payment you must enroll which is $2.00 then every check you write is another $1.00. There are other prepaid credit cards that offer free bill pay and no fees.

The rush card proudly says there are no hidden fees with their card. However they have more fees than any other card we have reviewed. They carry a fee with every transaction you make with your card.

In sum, look at some other prepaid cards. They have fewer fees and better benefits for being a card holder. - 16655

To Do Article Marketing or Not To Do Article Marketing

2008-12-30T02:42:00.001-08:00

By Brent Sweet

If you can learn the tricks, there are rewards for using article marketing. If you have heard anything lately about SEO in the recent past you would have heard something about increasing your ranking with article marketing. Particularly in Google. I use article marketing to promote every website I own. When I get traffic, I earn money. Good search engine rankings are free traffic. I also get some articles to bring traffic to my website. I think article marketing is well worth the time, if you want to promote your business, get writing.

If you have no idea where to start writing articles for marketing, there are several ebooks on the market to help you. Some are free, or you can buy and resell them. That is a place to start. I don't really write articles to sell products. I write articles to inform, or give my opinion, then I post them where I can. I use a resource box to get links back to my websites. I like to contribute to peoples content, and I am rewarded for it.

I agree that article marketing is a great way to drive free traffic to your website. There is so much information now days, on the internet, however, that does cause the amount of traffic to be limited from article marketing. The time invested in article marketing, however, is worth it from the rewards your site will get from the search engines. If you are trying to promote affiliate links through article marketing, however, quit wasting your time. Get a website and promote it.

You will be rewarded for writing articles. Your website can be enhanced and you will see more traffic. The key is to be able to write several articles on several topics. You also need to be efficient in the way that you submit articles. It is worth the investment for a site that can do this for you. My investment has paid off many times over. - 16655

Why You Need To Have A Blog For Physical Therapy Marketing

2008-12-29T02:38:00.001-08:00

By Samuel Awosolu

Online blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject such as sports, news, music or a hobby. Most blogs online function more as personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on photos, audio podcasting, videos, or all combined together.

Many physical therapists who have private practices, physical therapy products, and continuing education courses can use blogs to keep in touch with their readers or create a community of readers interested in their subject matter. If you are a physical therapist who focuses on total knee rehab you can talk about total knee surgery and treatment. If your expertise is in rotator cuff injuries you can blog about rotator cuff injuries and treatments. By offering quality expertise in your field you gain trust among your readers and possibly a potential patient or walk-in.

Blogs are affordable compared to the cost of building a website. Most blogs are free or have a low monthly fee to maintain. The most common blog programs available are wordpress blogs or blogger. Both are easy to use and update. Blogs are also very search engine friendly so it will also assist in getting you found easier online.

Here are some things you can do with a blog:

Post daily tips and information to your readers.

Share your expertise and become the go to blog for useful posts about a specific topic.

Search Engines like to spider Blogs because the content is always fresh and constantly being updated!

There are a lot of directories catering to Blogs online. Some directories allow you to "Ping" them when you add new content to keep their directories updated.

Have your visitors subscribe to your blog by leaving a subscribe button on your blog so that interested visitors can get notified when you post.

Use Google adsense to get residual income from PPC targeted advertisers.

Have your blog offer RSS feeds and Podcast feeds of your posts.

Place links to important information from your website like the services you offer, continuing education courses that you offer, your physical therapy product information, and etc.

The important social and interactive aspect of blogs is its ability for visitors to post comments on your post. Creating dialogue shows your reader you are a live person behind the blog.

You do not need to be a programmer or coder to get a blog up and running. For the most part it is very user friendly and easy to start one up.

You can customize the design and layout of most blogs to cater to the look and feel of your business brand.

If you haven't noticed blogs are here to remain in cyberspace. If you are a physical therapist with a private practice, a physical therapy product or an instructor for a continuing education course, you need to start planning on getting a blog running now. Any business looking to gain traffic and create a social presence in web 2.0 should have one. - 16655

Edu Still Among Best Text Links

2008-12-29T02:22:00.001-08:00

By Steve Prylon

Search engines are known for collecting information and using that information to rank certain sites higher than others. When they find a link on a high rated site, that link will be valued higher than if the same exact link was found on a lower ranked site. Links from sites with a .gov or .edu suffix are considered trusted and authority sites and are considered very valuable. Also, links that come from high ranked PageRank sites come with high value.

Most in the SEO industry will agree that .edu links have a higher value with the search engines, but there are always a few who disagree. In fact, it is just not true that .edu links are rated the same as other links by the search engines. A simple test will determine this: choose 2 sites, add standard links to one and .edu links to the other. Check your rankings and then run the same test several times. You'll see that .edu text links do make a difference in site placement.

That .edu text links are valued higher by the search engines should not be in dispute. When doing any type of random search, you will find .edu and .gov sites ranking repeatedly in the top 10. And that's even when the .gov and .edu sites are outdated or mostly irrelevant. That's a fact.

It is probably true that the algorithm is not written to put a blanket boost on any link from a site with .edu as the tld. If someone were to start a brand new university tomorrow, links from that site may not be valuable. But the fact is that most of the .edu sites are very old, very big, full of information, trusted sites, with tens of thousands of inbound links and high PR. It is this reason that the search engines seems to be placing more importance on the links.

As with anything, there's no way to get everybody to agree, so the naysayers who disagree about .edu links may just need to agree to disagree with the rest of the pack. Most SEO providers are seeing positive results as are we. And as long as our clients rankings are climbing to the top using quality content links, then we won't likely abandon something that works. - 16655

Free Classified Ads: What You Should Know

2008-12-29T01:05:00.001-08:00

By Alex Wu

The Internet is the new place for placing free classified ads. The local paper does not let you run ads for free. They are good for local sales, like a car or some large piece of furniture or equipment. You can also advertise locally on the internet. If you have smaller items you can reach a larger audience. Free classified ads target the people that are already interested in the product or item, and thus conversion rate is much higher most other advertising avenues.

You can place many types of ads on the Internet free classified ads sites. They are open to all, and they usually have great results. This is often a better way to sell items for people who want to avoid fees as you would get from the local classifieds or on e-bay.

The best way to find a good classified service to advertise your product or service on is to run an internet search with a few keywords like classifieds, or local classifieds, to find out which ones come up first in an Internet search. This helps you to decide which one would give you more exposure for your advertising.

When you decide to place a free classified ad on the Internet, do your homework and find out which ones rank highest on the search engines. You can use Alexa toolbar for this, or just do web searches as if you were looking for something on the Internet classifieds. Once you get the results make a note of the top ten results as these will be your most looked at classified ad websites. You should advertise on more than one.

This website will be hit the most as it comes up the highest in the search engine. That means a better chance that your ad will get seen by more people. Classified advertising is also targeted. People only look at the sections if they are interested in the products in that section.

Be precise in the method of payment that you require, and never send your item without payment first. PayPal and Money Orders are two methods that are good. If you accept checks make it clear that no item will be sent until the check clears. You have to protect yourself. There are people who are out to scam others just like anywhere else.

The ads can run anywhere from 7 to 30 days depending on the website, so it is worth checking into it. If they have any stats as far as how fast people are able to sell on their read them, if here are testimonials read them as well.

Make sure you make your method of payment expected clear in your ad Give an e-mail address rather than a phone number. I would suggest signing up for a free account just for this purpose. Then you will not get any junk mail. Keep it simple, and let the ad work for you. - 16655
