An
Emerging Trend Of "Leaving A Bad Taste"
A
recent news goes that a profitable sales site was sold over eBay
to a new owner, and as a result, based on hearsay, some customer
e-mailed customer support but there was no response. Don't you
think it leaves a bad taste in the mouth to have bought something
which is compromised? And you know what, the sales page still
looks the same with the product creators' names on it. You can't
tell the site is sold at all.
We
raise this issue because this is the second time we heard an incident
like this. Buying and selling businesses is commonplace, but we
think there are still merchants who don't think deeper that they
are also buying and selling the responsibility of maintaining/looking
after the site and especially the obligation of customer support.
Even
the thought of selling a revenue model by auction means may make
you uncomfortable, because the highest bidder may know nothing
of what he buys, and the seller may only be more concerned with
the money changing hands. There is no screening or interview involved
to qualify the best buyer who can be handed over the business
with no worries.
The
one thing that is most compromised is also the thing that impacts
customers the most: the product, especially if it's web-based
on the seller's server. Some weary customers have said
they learnt a lesson, and that is "never buy a product which
cannot work on your side" e.g. your own server, PC etc. Considering
the big picture that Internet Marketing is a very fluid trade
and "nothing lasts forever", it does sound relevant
to own everything you have bought and minimize dependency on the
seller, lest s/he closes shop one day, shuts down the web-based
product and disappears.
The
future implication can be so strong it overrides all other benefits
of a web-based product, like a membership site, article database
etc. and only encourages you to opt for a "download-&-install"
version of a rival product. Think about what is written here for
the longevity of whatever you are going to do in your online businesses.

The
Fastest Way To Get Your First 30 Pages Of Your Site Indexed
We will once told
that Adsense ads operate effectively when Google has indexed at
least 30 pages of your site. These are the steps you should do
methodically to make Adsense work for you:
1. Don't put the ad codes on your pages immediately! Google is
very smart these days and they will not hesitate to de-index you
when they find there's not enough pages.
2. Build your site because you love the subject matter. Yes,
you may be aiming for Adsense but please keep your intention concealed
from Google. Google never sees from the angle that every site
must have Adsense. Every webmaster with a new site is presumed
to know nothing about Adsense, and this presumption is crucial
to the natural growth, look and content (less spammy) of the site.
Let this thinking governs the way you develop your site.
3. Build a sitemap. Some people we know said that the cryptic
Google sitemap does not impact much. The sitemap we are talking
about is the traditional sitemap (example)
with direct links to all sections of your site. Remember that
Google may not index pages more than 5 levels deep.
4. Submit your sitemap to Google and your index page to Spiderhub.
5. If you have older sites which you are still working on, chances
are Google spiders are visiting them regularly. Create a direct
text link to your new site in the index page and leave it for
3 months.
6. Keep on adding new content, preferably original, or build
up the various sections of your site. The 2 main forms are articles
and blog posts.
7. Write just one original article and submit to all major article
directories to build up the backlinks and traffic. This can give
Google notice.
8. Keep track of the number of pages indexed with Uptimebot.
Google is influential, so by doing these 7 steps, other search
engine big (particularly Yahoo!, MSN and AllTheWeb) and small
will pick your site up in time. Focus on Google first. What's
most important is patience and not to be too quick that you will
kill the golden goose.

Killer Profit Boosters
1. Gain an advantage
over your competition. You should find one benefit your competition
doesn't offer and use it as your main selling point.
2. Design your e-zine so it creates multiple free advertising
streams. Ask readers to forward it to people they know, offer
ad trades, etc.
3. Allow your visitors to subscribe to an update e-zine. Anytime
you make changes to your website they can receive an informative
e-mail.
4. Focus your articles on information the targeted readers and
e-zine publishers want. They will get published more often, which
means free publicity.
5. Use problems to attract online traffic. Find a common online
problem and use your website to solve it. People will visit and
see your ads.
6. Have an informative FAQ page at your website. Anticipate questions
your prospects or visitors may have; this will help improve your
sales ratio.
7. Improve your negotiation skills. This'll improve your business
because you're always negotiating ad swaps, supply prices, joint
ventures, wages, etc.
8. Beat your competition by giving away a similar product or
service that they charge for. It could be add-on products, warranties,
servicing, etc.
9. Build a larger online community by giving your visitors bonuses
for participating on your message boards or chatrooms. Try free
products, ads, etc.
10. Instead of starting an affiliate program, start a referral
program. Give people discounts and free products for referring
people to your site.

Difference
Between A Press Release And An Editorial
For
the benefit of understanding the subtle difference between article
formats, here are the clear definitions of a press release and
an editorial.
Press releases are pro-active media messages designed to inform
the public about specific events. They often contain a great deal
of information about a product, service, individual, company or
organization. They are typically used as public relations tools
for notifying the media about what has or will transpire to gain
mass exposure of their message using a third-parties distribution
network. Press releases convey your message your way—"straight
from the horse's mouth". Publicity is the most cost-effective
marketing tool there is and it's the only part of a marketing
strategy that builds credibility.
An editorial is one writing style used to express an opinion
or reaction to news, events, or issues of concern. Most editorials
are used to influence readers to think or act the same way as
the author, so they can be written to promote the benefits of
a product, service or idea. You can build a library of archived
Editorials that can serve as an ongoing Newsletter promoting a
specific issue or idea.
Brad Callen, author of the vastly popular software, SEO Elite has recently released an incredibly simple guide on how to write a press release and distribute it. Using the same principles, your press release can catapult your site to the top of Google and Yahoo for the most searched term.
In Press Release Fire, you will get to understand:
- The concepts of the press release.
- How to write your press release for maximum acceptability and impact.
- Tips on wide press release distribution.
- Sample press releases—what to do and what not to do. Even a press release template.
- When you should go for a free press release? What do you get extra when you pay for your press release distribution.
His Press Equalizer software goes one step further and helps you to create your press releases in an interactive format and then lets you submit them to leading online press release sites resulting in a quick burst of traffic and several one-way incoming links for higher search engine rankings and sustained long-term traffic.
Both products will make a lethal combo for your effectiveness in press release distribution.

Stormpay's
Latest Change In TOS
Stormpay
just announced that you cannot provide multiple payment options
with Stormpay included. It's either Stormpay or the others. Ignore
at your own risk. Below is the full message (policy update):
"Due to high
volumes of fraudulent transactions made to merchants with commission-based
business models, StormPay can no longer process payments for those
type of merchants who choose to accept more than one payment processing
solution.
Using more than one payment processor is exactly the situation
that "fraud" seeks out. This enables the fraudulent
user to set up a fake profile with either of the processors, make
a purchase or join the program, and then withdraw their earnings
to the other processor where the real identity is used. This sort
of activity makes it nearly impossible for either processor, or
law enforcement to properly handle the fraud because the "trail"
comes to an end. This is the cause for a great many chargebacks
to those merchants which can be avoided.
As of 1/30/2006 StormPay must require Merchants with a commissioned
based business model who choose to accept StormPay, to only accept
StormPay. StormPay certainly does not wish to dictate how our
merchants run their business, all merchants are free to choose
any processing solution that best suits their needs. We understand
you have choices and certainly hope that choice is the online
leader - StormPay. However, if another payment solution is used,
please immediately remove StormPay from the associated website
as a funding option and continue to use the StormPay account funds
to finish payments to those members who paid using their StormPay
account.
At StormPay we truly care about our merchants' and the overall
success of their business and sales and for that reason we have
implemented these very necessary changes. Thank you in advance
for your understanding in this very crucial matter.
StormPay Inc."

HOT: Butterfly Marketing
Top Keyword Data
********************
HOT: Butterfly Marketing
We think there's less than 500 packs available
as you are reading this. And while it's still selling Mike may
raise the price to $1497 or even $1997. Get
it for a one-time, lowest possible payment of $997 today!
1.
I don't have $997 at this moment. What can I do?
Mike
also offers an instalment plan of $379 in 3 payments.
That way, you won't get too financiallly tied up.
2.
Which level of marketers is BM for?
It's
really for any level of marketers, including newbies, who can
not only appreciate the history of Mike Filsaime's success, but
also "go for broke" and make back the initial $997 investment
no matter what. Is it easier for you to give up on an
investment of $997 as compared to $200? That's the problem for
most MLMers who simply give up when they find something does not
work. But Butterfly Marketing is really the third most significant
Internet Marketing package after Traffic Secrets and Underachiever
Mastery. Most products provide you the blueprint or the tools.
Butterfly Marketing definitely provides you the blueprint AND
the tools to create your own viral income generators in
no time at all, and they work no matter how many marketers
use them. The effectiveness of the secrets is never saturated.
There are no prerequisites needed to know how to deploy
BM. Do consider this purchase while stocks last! 1500
customers at most will be a few steps closer to becoming Filsaime-wannabes,
and that's the end of it.
3.
Is it...hype?
If
it's hype it works very well anyway. A successful sales campaign
should speak for itself. Moreover, you are getting the impression
of hype because many other marketers are fighting for their commissions
too :) The beef of the matter is Mike is able to execute and sustain
a certain formula for most of his successful sites and if 'hype'
is the formula, then it's a skill worth learning. Watch the video
proof.
We give you 3 good
reasons why BM sells like crazy:
1) Credibility:
Who still haven't knew who Mike Filsaime, Russell Brunson, Michael
Rasmussen or Gary Ambrose are? They are ALL selling BM, and the
"top 20 sellers" list reads like a Who's who.
2) Proof:
You can watch and listen to video proofs and audio testimonials
of REAL success stories
reported by those that have applied Mike's tactics, and early
results from the JV partners that have
had the chance to review and apply what they've learned. How could
they be wrong?
3) Value:
Substantial BM manual, software generators, related bonuses and
Mike's personal post-sales support provide a totally cohesive
package to take you to the next level with less errors.
Really,
don't miss this one.
Be
a butterfly today!

Stop
Rushing Through Life! by Margot Zaher
********************
Stop
Rushing Through Life! by Margot Zaher
"There
is no need to be in a hurry. Even when you are walking to the
office, there is no need to be in a hurry. A walk is to be enjoyed!
Go slowly. Enjoy the trees surrounding the way, the birds, the
sun, the sky, the clouds, the people that are passing and the
smell of the earth. Enjoy everything. Be Alert." –
Osho (Excerpt from 'The Fish in the Sea is Not Thirsty')
Why are we rushing in the first place? Why do we have this feeling
of not having enough time? Experiencing a lack of time, funds,
fun, and feelings is what creates this need to be racing to the
finish line all day long and sometimes all life long. A rushing
body and mind will feel panicked because it believes that this
energy will speed up the completion of the task, and fill up the
empty feelings inside. When we don't feel connected with the eternal
spiritual Source inside ourselves, there is this desperate feeling
of lack, and a need for something to fulfill us.
Remember, rushing through ANY experience is actually an act of
violence towards your self, and means you are not accepting that
THIS experience is sacred. It is a nasty habit that results in
you not taking the time to appreciate and LOVE your life exactly
as it is. The only redeeming quality this rushing energy has is
to remind us what it is like to slow down, so that we can actually
enjoy our lives exactly as they are right here, right now. The
'Now' is the juiciest moment alive, and has everything to offer
you, bar none!
The first three anti-rushing remedies:
1.
Make the Commitment that you will slow your life down.
2. Practice driving under the speed limit (you may notice it is
a speed LIMIT not a speed minimum).
3. Walk slowly and gently as if you were gliding through the air.
