Broadband - A Cheap Alternative

January 13th, 2008

Broadband, another name for high speed internet connection, is capable of transmitting data at a much faster rate than a standard dialup modem connection. It allows you to keep your phone lines free allowing you to make and receive calls while using the Internet. It works on the top of your phone line such as ADSL providing ten times faster data transfer than a dial-up connection. You can now download music, graphics and video quickly in no time at all. So if you are a dial-up user, looking for a faster connection, go for a broadband Internet connection.

Earlier with dial-up connections, people had no options but to bear with low speeds, breaking connections, time consuming downloads, and engaged phone lines, etc. But with the coming of broadband, there is a solution to all these problems. Although broadband is costlier than dial-ups, people are opting for it because they have realised the importance of broadband. After the broadband prices came down, its use in homes quickly surpassed dialups. The only change is the change in frequency and duration. Telephone calls can now be made on the Internet and cheap webcams can be used for video chatting. People can now send a quick email, read a quick news article, instantantly access pages on the Net, video on the Net, and even download a lot faster. They don’t have to wait anymore for several minutes to log on to a dial-up account. The wide bandwidth technology is transforming cable TV, internet and telephone connections round the globe. The number of internet service providers are also increasing with broadband making its way to more and more homes. With your broadband connection, you can reduce your expenses and enjoy added features that your conventional phone company could not provide to you at any price. Broadband was initially desired for surfing and downloading speed but today an ever increasing number of people are turning to VOIP( voice over internet protocol). VOIP is a great service and it cuts down the phone bills to nothing.

Get on the Web!

December 26th, 2007

If you have a business, you must have a website. It is the way
business is done. It’s as important as the sign on the front of
your building. Sales of online services and goods have climbed
well into the billions and this is only the beginning. What will
a well designed and Internet ready website do for you? The
question is what won’t it do? It will drive new revenue, slash
expenses and build customer loyalty while saving you time and
making your work life easier.

Many think a website is hard to understand, harder yet to use,
and hardest of all, to afford. Not true. A good website design
firm, that speaks plain English, and is well versed in Internet
marketing will help. These agencies should also give you a free
review and perhaps samples of what they can do for you.
Depending on your needs, some websites can be had for as little
as $10 per month after the initial design and marketing fee.
Caution should be exercised here. A very high priced website may
not bring you all you imagined, but a very inexpensive one will
surely disappoint. After your website is built and ready to
begin working for you, there is the tricky task of submitting
and marketing to the search engines. Search engines like Yahoo
and Google are where most of your prospects find you. Submission
and marketing is a tricky proposition because the search engines
change the rules often and there are very specific steps you
need to follow so that you are ranked well. Everyone wants a
first or second page listing, but getting there takes the work
of an expert. Don’t undertake this task yourself. Let a search
engine specialist do it for you. Their fee will be worth its
weight in gold.

Make no mistake about it; the Internet is the most powerful
marketing tool we have ever seen. Build your website, market it
well and watch your fortunes grow.

Internet democracy is dying

December 18th, 2007

Do you know that Internet is no longer a free Internet that
everyone can share information with everyone else or everyone
can freely publish your ideas or have your voice heard? As of
today, the Internet is controlled by many Giants that can
manipulate what we see, what we hear and it is the Giants to
tell the public what is to be heard.

What’s the Problem with the current Internet? People may ask
the question. True, if you are the one that relies on others to
provide you everything, you may feel this way - it should be
that. However, even you are one of the Google fans, Yahoo or MSN
fans, do you some times feel frustrated that from within their
search or web site, you cannot find the real information you
need, or have your been presented with too many garbage or
un-related advertisements? I bet that no one can say No with
absolute confidence.

So this is the problem. After 10 years development of Internet,
the Internet has evolved from the original free network to
current commercial centralized network that only a few dominated
players are in control. You may still argue: there are still
millions of web sites I can go to and if I like, I could open a
new web site any time……

True! However, there is one question you need to answer: How
could you let others know about your site without going through
the big ones? The truth is, the giants like Google, Yahoo or MSN
are actually taking control of the whole Internet by their
search engine, or by their directories, which, in the beginning
of the Internet era, are quite democratic, now become more and
more monopoly.

I still remember that about 5 to 10 years ago, submitting your
site to any web search engine or directory is quite simple - it
is automatic and quick. The CGIs in those servers will add your
link in a couple of minutes and your link will appear in the
directories in a couple of minutes, or even hours. However, do
you know that the now, most companies have to pay to submit your
web site into the main directory? Most, if not all, major web
site charges for a fee in order to list your web site, or your
product into their listings.

But there are still some free listings in the net. You may still
argue. True, but look at their traffic rank, any web site that
has a Alexa ranking above 1000 wont bother to list your stuff
for free - or even it is free, you will be put to a long waiting
time or waiting list, from 2 weeks to 3 months, which,
effectively, will force you to pay to get your stuff available
to the public.

This behavior is not rare but more common practice and
contributes quite a lot to those Internet companies’ financial
reports. And people are getting more and more used to them, just
like people have to reply on Microsoft Windows for their
desktops or Google for their search.

Search engine providers now have absolute power to direct user
flow. And since they are not regulated, they are self-policing
and if they like, such as Google, Yahoo or MSN, they are
effectively control something over 90% of the internet’s
traffic. That’s an awesome amount of power that is not
answerable to anyone. For example, recently there is a news
about Go
ogle banning German BMW
http://blog.outer-court.com/archive/2006-02-04-n60.html

If those guys don’t like anybody — for any reason — he may be
cleaned from their index and essentially booted from the
internet. This is not about whether they have good reason or not
- sometimes the reason they feel good may seem absurd to other
people, or even they have good intent and try to do good but at
best, it is still a risk to relying on a single company to
become the sole source of our daily information.

In summary, the Internet or the information in the Internet
should not be governed by very few companies; it is the Internet
from the user, of the user and for the user. If we view the
Internet as one of the biggest community, everyone in the
Internet is a community member and should have equal power of
management power; those few governors in the Internet - big
companies such as Google, Microsoft or Yahoo are also just a few
community members and the whole community should be managed or
controlled by them, instead, every user in the Internet should
have equal rights on the information in the Internet.

Three Steps to Internet Success

December 6th, 2007

There are just three steps you need to take to ensure your web
site

succeeds. If you follow these three steps your web site will get

visitors who come back time and time again. Plus you’ll get
noticed by

the search engines - and you’ll be able to earn money from your
web

site.

One constant theme that emerges from the most successful
businesses and

organizations is simplicity. Keep things simple and you will
succeed.

Try to do too much, or complicate things and you’ll more than
likely

fail. So, the three step process for Internet success is simple,
making

it much more likely that you will succeed.

STEP ONE Focus. Decide precisely what your web site will be
about. For instance,

say your interest is in cars. If you produce a web site about
cars,

you’ll be competing against millions of others and you’ll not
get

noticed. Narrow down your focus to something specific - perhaps

something like “the history of the design of Italian cars”. The
more

specific your theme, the better. Don’t try to do too much - a
single

narrow theme is what you need for success. If you want to cover
a broad

subject, break it down into several narrow themes for separate
web

sites.

STEP TWO Content. Fill your site with content. The information
you provide needs

to be focused directly on your theme. You may need to write the
main

pages yourself, but there will be articles you can use from
ezine

directories and from private label sites that will help you fill
out

your web site. The more content you add, the better. Plus, be
sure to

add articles and information to your site every week. That will
get

people coming back to your site and it will also make sure the
search

engines notice you.

STEP THREE Links. Get links from other sites, but don’t try to
get links from just

anyone. Instead, get links from relevant sites. In our example
this

would be other car sites, or sites on aspects of Italian
history. A

link from a friend’s site on another subject is of no value. So,
search

the web for web sites that are relevant to your interest and
then ask

the webmasters to link to your site, in return for providing a
link to

them on your site.

With these three steps you are assured of online success. That’s

because these are the key steps taken by all of the most
successful

sites you encounter.

One other thing, by adding in Google AdSense elements to your
pages

your web site will generate cash for you. The more content rich
and

highly focused your site, the better the response you’ll get to
the

adverts you carry. And that means more money paid to you by
Google.

Getting the most out of your mail account

November 15th, 2007

Email is the lifeline of any online business, offering a cost
effective method of communication over the Internet. If you have
an online presence and/or business it is essential that you have
your own mail server - a mail server is a site on the web where
you can have your own personal mail box. With a mail server you
can send and receive mail to just about anyone on the Internet.
However there is a lot more to having a mail account then just
sending and receiving mail, such as auto-responders, forwarders,
aliases, mailing lists and catch all mailboxes.

Aliases Make sure that you can set up as many aliases as you
like with your ISP. An alias is another name for an email
address or a number of addresses. Many ISP allow you to have
multiple aliases such as sales@yourdomain.com and
support@yourdomain.com.

Auto-responders An auto-responder is an automatically generated
email message that provides static information to the recipient.
For example, if an email is sent to one of your email addresses
an email will be sent automatically to the sender of the email.

Forwarders Make sure you check with your ISP that you can set up
forwarders. Forwarding is where different aliases can be
forwarded to one or more email addresses. For example, if you
have the email address info@yourdomain.com, you can set up a
forwarder so that all emails sent to info@yourdomain.com are
forwarded to your other email address sales@yourdomain.com.

Catch-all A catch-all mailbox basically catches all emails with
typos, incorrect names etc, but the email has the domain name in
the email address spelt correctly (e.g. typo@yourdomain.com).
For example, you can set up an alias such as
mailmanager@yourdomain.com and all emails with typos are
redirected to this mailbox.

Mailing Lists A mailing list is a system for distributing email
messages to many people at once. Mailing lists are a good tool
to use if you have a brochure, catalog or newsletter and you
want to distribute to lots of people. ISP should either have
some sort of Mailing list program installed or have a mailing
list included on their mail server.

What YOU Should Know Before Getting A Web Site!

November 8th, 2007

Everyday thousands of new businesses make the leap and take their business on line, what about yours? If you haven’t already, I’ll bet you have thought about it and wondered how much more business you could be doing if you just went on line…and right about then, you wonder what it would take to get your business on line?

Here are some things to consider:

1. What do I expect my web site to do? The question you must ask yourself first and foremost is, “What do I want my website to do?”. There are many types of web sites out there from purely selling products, to purely informational and everything in between. Are you looking to start an online community with people who have similar interests? Do you need a one page online resume, portfolio, bio, or online brochure to really get your company’s information in front of the public? No two sites are exactly alike, and because of that, the prices for your web design can fluctuate. This question is one you must ask yourself before you hire a web designer!

2. How much will a web site cost me? What is your budget for your web site? Be realistic when you set your amount. Though a good deal is great, rock bottom prices are not what you are looking for here! Remember, this is your virtual store front. You want your site to be professional, efficient, and look the very best it can-you want your dreams to come true, and they will with the right designer.

Honestly, you can find web site design from $35 (if you get this for a quote, and you have any hopes of ending up with a professional site…WALK AWAY!) to $10,000 (good for huge companies that can afford it, but not the best bet for a new business). Realistically, expect to spend from $85-$200 for a one page resume, bio or brochure site and from $300-$1,800 for larger full featured sites, and expect to pay either half or all of it upfront depending on your designer.

Aside from that there are monthly hosting fees that range from $10-$40 per month for a descent sized site. Ask your designer if they offer hosting in addition to designing your site? You will usually get a much better deal, and you already trust them to design your site (I’ll go more into hosting plans and options another time). Do you have your domain name yet? (example: www.thebestmoms.com) If not, ask your designer if they can get you one? A lot the time, if you are buying a decent sized design job and hosting from them, they will throw in your domain name for free-although, you will have to pay the renewal fee each year which can range from $19-$35 (ask your designer).

3. What’s my web address going to be? This is a question you want to really spend some time on before choosing. I suggest you pick a name that is A-easy to remember, B-as short as possible, C-as uncomplicated as possible; try to stay away from more than 1 or 2 hyphens, if any. People easily forget the hyphens when they remember the address, and you don’t want to be sending business somewhere else. D-using correct spelling; it is fun to play with the spelling of a word, but take in to consideration your audience’s ability to remember the way YOU spelled it as opposed to their natural urge to spell it correctly.

It’s your job to get them to your site, not their job to find you, so make it easy. E-pick something that has to do with your business (optional); I know some sites have gone against this rule and been successful but they also started from a different place than you are starting. Come up with a list of your top 5 or 10 choices, because there is a good chance that your first choice is already gone! When deciding, ask yourself if you want your address to be a .com, .net, .org, .edu, .biz, .tv, etc. I suggest .com, or .net for selling (ecommerce) sites, but it’s up to you!

4. How long will it take to design my site? There are a lot of different factors that determine just how long a site takes to be completed, including you. If you take longer to get your information (or your words for each page and pictures) it will of course take longer for your site to be up and running. Also, the more complicated your site, the longer it can take-though I’ve not seen a site construction take longer than 8 weeks. To speed the design process, have a clear idea of what it is you want ahead of time. Make lists, and write out your ‘blurbs’ (text) for each page. Your text is your responsibility, and a lot of designers will not consider creating it for you with out charging you for creative writing (which can cost $35-75 per hour).

I only suggest leaving the creative writing up to someone else if you are positive that you simply can not do it. If your designer does not offer writing as a service (ask), you can hire a creative writer online and sometimes you can even barter (trade your products for their services) with creative writers looking to build their portfolio. One other way that you can speed up the design process is to make sure you and your designer are on the same page as far as design.

You do not want to keep changing your design idea, especially after they have started working. A lot of work goes into web site design, and so what seems like a minor change in the design plans to you may actually be a major change in the overall design, and some designers will charge you for this because your initial quote is based on their expected design hours. I wouldn’t suggest doubling it out of the blue.

5. How long before the public discovers my site? They won’t. What I mean by that is, there is more to getting people to your site than just putting it on the web. Like any other store, you have to market your site. One great tool is search engines. Now, how do you get listed on search engines? You want to give your designer a two sentence description for each category or page, and a list of 20 words you think some one would use to find your site for each category. Your designer may be willing to do some of this for you, so ask.

Also, there are some search engine submission services out there that are great, and there are some that aren’t. I suggest you ask your designer if they submit your site to search engines automatically or if there is a small fee for this? Is their submission once or repeated over a period of time? Simply submitting will not guarantee you top spot on the search engines; especially if you are in an already crowded field-even if you pay the $300 fees some search engines charge.

You can also market your site by putting the web site address on everything-return address labels, business cards, t-shirts, your car, your email signature; put it in your signature on message boards, etc. There are many ways to get the word out, but don’t think for one second that just because you built it, they will come-this is by far the biggest misconception in web site building!

6. Who will update my site in the future? Most designers have policies about updates, from a monthly update fee only for the months you require updates, to an hourly fee per update. Talk to your designer, and make sure that they understand not only how often you expect to need updates, but the nature of your updates. If it is something like switching a picture, or changing a phone number, there may be no charge so ask.

After answering these questions, you are ready to talk to your designer about the fun stuff-the design. Write down a list of sites that possess the feel or the style that you are looking for so your designer can get a better picture of your ultimate goal, and the two of you go from there!

Looking for a Web Design Company? Use a Web Design Directory

November 3rd, 2007

Your business website tells a lot about your company. A poorly designed website will have your visitors questioning the quality of your business. A well thought out elegantly designed site would instill confidence in your visitors that you are a credible business to deal with. There is a saying in advertising, “It is better to not advertise than to advertise poorly”. The same holds true for web design.

There are so many Web Design companies now. How do you make an educated decision on which one to choose? Like every market that is saturated, you always see ads that read, “Hire us we are the best”. Well how do you know that statement is true? Wouldn’t it be great if you had a resource available to you that pre-screened Web Design Companies to narrow down your choices? To answer that question, yes there is, use a Web Design directory. Web Design directories are usually run by companies in the Web Design Industry. Using their knowledge to pre-screen the Web Design companies that submit their contact information to the directory insures that only quality Web Design Companies are listed.

Most Web Design directories are categorized by region. Some use states, some use countries all in hopes of making your search that much easier. If you live in Alabama then you simply click the link that reads, “Alabama Web Design”. Some Web Design directories will also allow you the customer to submit a quote request. Then they take your information and forward it to Web Design Companies that meet your criteria. This can be very helpful, as it eases the process of finding the perfect Web Design Company for your project.

Along with a directory of different Web Design Companies, you may also find helpful articles to educate yourself, and help make the decision process a little easier. Look for articles that answer your questions, “What is PHP”, or “How do colors affect your visitors’ experience”. Articles like these can give you a little incite as to what makes up a high quality website.

Your business website is very important to help strengthen your image. It is often the first impression a potential customer will have about your company. Using a Web Design directory can ensure your visitors have a positive first impression that causes them to contact you to do business.

Why Autoresponders are an Absolute Must

October 21st, 2007

With autoresponders, you never have to lose money advertising again! That’s right, every ad you place from now on can be a winner — even when you lose money!

I know, I know, you’re thinking, “Okay, now you’ve lost it Glen.” But I haven’t. Let me explain.

Let’s say you place an ezine ad, which costs you $200. and you make $20 for every sale made. If you make 8 sales with the ad you will earn $160.

Gosh, you just lost $40. That’s a bad ad right? The answer to that depends on how you wrote your ad. Let me show you how losing $40 can actually be a win.

When you create your ad, don’t advertise directly for your product. Advertise something that will “bring them in the door”. Freebies like this mini-course, sweepstakes or items at exceptionably low prices work well.

The job of your advertisement is to create leads. That is, to get the readers e-mail address with permission to follow up Yes, that’s that one to one marketing thing happening again.

Using autoresponders that automatically follow-up will give you the ability to set up a completely automated follow-up system for your product or service. You can use three, eight, or even thirty e-mail follow-up messages to generate sales for your product.

Instead of only having one chance to sell your prospect, you can have thirty opportunities to sell them — all for the price of one ad. Which do you think will make more sales?

Marketing guru Jay Levinson figures the average person needs to see an ad twenty-seven times before it has the desired impact. Twenty seven times! Now you know why you see Coca-Cola everywhere you look.

Okay, so let’s do the math again. You paid $200 to run your ad with a link to your automatic follow-up system. Let’s say you send seven follow-ups. You made $160 on the first ad. Don’t forget what the guru says — the more a person sees an ad, the more likely they will buy. But for argument sake, let’s say your conversion rate stays at $160 per follow-up. $160 times seven follow-ups equals $1120. Now you’ve made a profit of $920! Pretty cool isn’t it?

Try to use some element of viral marketing in your offer. I give this mini-course away for free to people who sign up for my ListOpt List Builder Program and I allow you to give it to your friends and even offer it to your prospects in your ezine or on your website as something to “get them in your door”.

Yes, that’s right, you can offer this mini-course to your prospects for free when they sign up for your ezine. All you have to do is give them this link (mailto:ezinemoney@fetchreply.com) in your welcome message that you send out when they subscribe to your ezine. You could say something like:

“Thanks for subscribing to MyEzineName. You will receive your first issue shortly… blah, blah, blah…

As our gift to you for subscribing, please send a blank e-mail to mailto:ezinemoney@fetchreply.com Within seconds, you will receive for free, the marketing mini-course, “The 7 Secrets of Making Money with Ezines”.

Best regards,

Your Name”

This is a win-win situation.

You Win because:

You offer people this mini-course which will increase the number of people who sign up for your ezine and will drive traffic to your site.

Your Subscribers Win because:

You gave your subscribers this mini-course which will not only teach them how to make money with their ezine, but also they can use it to produce more traffic and sales at their web site. This my friends will please your customers and create loyalty (which is another win for you).

And I Win because:

A traffic virus is being created with this mini-course! Wow! A win-win-win situation. Everyone is happy.

To sum it up, using an autoresponder follow-up system with an element of viral marketing will reduce your advertising risk. If you have a traffic virus in place, then your ad will continue to work for you for many years to come.

5 Biggest Mistakes Made By Business Owners Getting A Website

October 9th, 2007

It’s amazing how many business owners make each of the mistakes
listed below. Making these mistakes could cost a company
thousands of dollars initially, and take away from tens of
thousands of potential dollars they should be earning monthly
from their website.

1. Get their website done too early. 2. Pay way too much or too
little for their website. 3. Focus on making it too pretty and
flashy. 4. Do not get any traffic to their website. 5. Never
make any money off their website.

The biggest mistake most businesses owners make is getting their
website done too early. A smart business owner will first
research their target audience in their specific Internet
market, and only then build their website around their research.

A business owner needs to get training on how to find a target
web audience in a specific niche market. They need to determine
which keywords their website needs to be designed around, in
order to bring in customers from search engines and other
sources. A huge mistake made by business owners is they get
their website formed around very broad keywords which have too
much competition.

Rushing web design without proper planning could also very well
hurt your wallet. Most web development companies quote very high
prices on web and graphic design, and most business owners make
the mistake of going with those companies. They charge for
flashy features that will never bring in traffic and will never
make the website any money.

You may also get a very low quote from an offshore company, but
beware - there are many problems with offshore designers: their
English isn’t great, you can’t reach them on the phone, the
time-zone difference becomes a huge problem - while you’re awake
they are sleeping, payment is a problem because you have to wire
them money, trust and legal issues can be a huge mess, their
marketing knowledge is very limited to their country because
they have no knowledge of the marketing techniques and economics
of your country.

The key, is to find a web design company that doesn’t spend too
much or any money on advertising. This way, they can keep their
costs down because they don’t have one of the biggest expenses
in the industry. A web design company can be extremely
successful just through word of mouth. Now they may be hard to
find because they don’t actually advertise, but if you ask your
friends and co-workers they may have someone great they can
refer.

Once you’ve done your keyword and market research, and found the
right design company, you have to know what to ask for. One of
the biggest mistakes a business owner makes is they ask and pay
for a website that is all looks and no sales, no marketing. They
spend thousands of dollars on a ‘pretty’ website full of flashy
effects which brings in $0 in revenue. You have to ask yourself,
what good is a flashy website when no one comes to it?

Sure major companies spend a lot of money on making their
website extravagant, flashy, and interactive, but they already
have traffic because of their name, that’s called branding. The
last thing a smart business owner would do is copy the idea of
having an expensive flashy website like those of Fortune 500
companies. A smart business owner understands that for a website
to sell it’s main focus needs to be copywriting and marketing,
and will put design second. You will rarely find a design
company that tells you to put content, copywriting, and
marketing AHEAD of the look, layout, and design. You must
understand that for a company to be successful on the Internet,
that company must direct their focus on marketing their website
and worry about how it looks last.

By avoiding the 5 mistakes discussed above, a business owner may
actually be very successful on the web. If one does not follow
all the rules it could not only hurt their wallet, but their
potential to succeed. If you want to be successful in the online
game, you have to play your cards right. With proper research,
planning, and copywriting, a business owner will be able to
dominate their niche market and grow their online business which
has unlimited potential.

What Does It Take To Make Money Online?

October 8th, 2007

Do you harbor the dream of dreams? Working at home and making a
decent living, not answering to anyone but yourself and fixing
your own hours and dress code? Do you dream of a home based
business opportunity that actually works, doesn’t siphon off all
your spare money but puts the bucks in your pocket?

Is there really such a thing?

The dream of making money on the Internet is not a simple
fantasy. You can make it a reality if you’re willing to follow
some basic precepts. Here are a few principles to follow when
contemplating starting up a home based online business. They’re
also useful checks for those who have been working online for a
while and want to tweak an already established Internet business.

You’ve seen all the hype. It seems that every other page on the
web advertises secrets to making a fortune online. Some of those
programs are definitely well conceived and well structured, and
will produce return for your time, effort, energy and money in
the form of an ongoing Internet business. Others are scams. When
you’re first starting out, how do you tell the difference?

Read first, and then research before you act. After you’ve read
a couple dozen of these websites through, you’ll find yourself
noticing patterns of hyperbole and noticeably pushy prose. Throw
those out.

Choose a few programs you feel good about at that point. Then
write individual e-mails to the people whose glowing
testimonials are all over those sites. The ones who write back
represent the ones that stand a chance.

Commit to something you love. This recommendation contains two
parts: First, the commitment part. That means that your new
online home based business requires you to take care of it like
a baby. Don’t just buy a program and then expect it to bring in
the dough. Commit in your mind first, and really be willing to
spend time nurturing your online home business with your time,
your heart, your mind and your soul. That’s what winners are
made of.

The second part of the recommendation to “commit to something
you love” has to do with loving what you do. It’s simple. If you
love the product or service you represent, if you love how you
spend your time, then you stand a great chance of making a
success of your home based business. If you don’t love it,
however, you’re going to burn out way before you see the light
at the end of the tunnel. That’s what happens to 95% of all the
small home based business entrepreneurs on the Internet… they
burn out.

Basically, you’re looking to optimize your chances of online
business success through your own diligence, commitment and
love. These qualities are the ones that will put you over the
top and make you feel great about your adventure in online
marketing.
