Six Simplicites That Create Success

This article is take from a an audio article that I posted on my blog as is one of my favorites. I took a look at the things that helped me in my home business and these six were the most valuable. 1) Always create and control your own products. Never rely on the products of others for your success. That's right, you must have your own products to be a large success. Anything else is much harder. And notice that I said products in the plural meaning you should have several. 2) There is no such thing as an internet business only a home based business. Now why am I saying that? Because there is an error out there that says "internet business only". The truth is that you are in home based business that does a lot of it's work on the internet. There are other methods of expanding your home based business that have nothing to do with the internet. Don't forget to try them as well. 3) There 3 systems that run all businesses. A Product creation system, a Sales creation system, and a Customer traffic creation system. Focusing on improving these 3 areas and ignoring most anything else will drastically improve your production. 4) Build your business on multiple products. It is hard to build a lasting business with one product. You should have a collection of related products in different forms. I teach people how to make multiple products easily on my blog. 5) You are in the business of collecting people who inquire about what you have, buy what you have, and who buy other items that you offer. This the basic flow of business or a fundamental of doing business. Inquiries, sales, & re-purchases are what we all do in business and they are done in that order. 6) All business must be reduced to a numbers game or it is not profitable. If you cannot make everything you do into a number that can be compared to a previous number you can get into trouble. Statistics run a business even if you do not keep them. Using the six items can greatly increase home business success

Is A Blog Right For Your Small Business?

More and more small businesses are considering using a blog to promote their business. A blog can be used in a variety of ways. Here are just a few • Get the word out to your customers about your services and products • An easy way to keep your employees updated • A way to allow interaction from your customers or employees There are a few advantages and a few pitfalls to be aware of before you start. It is important that you lay out a plan and decide what the purpose of your blog will be. Decide how often it will be updated and keep to it. Blogs that aren’t updated on a regular basis lose their advantage. You may need more than one blog because the tighter the focus your blog has – the more effective it will be. Keep your blog on topic and don’t allow it to range far and wide with your topics just because you can. If you want to stray from your major topic you may want to consider creating another blog on that topic. The big advantage of a blog is the ease of use and the ability to be interactive. At the same time that interactivity needs to be controlled to keep your blog on track. Your blog needs to maintain a consistent purpose. Unfortunately, not all comments will add to the conversation you are creating on your blog so make sure you control the comments. Worry less about the technology and more about the purpose for your business. Now if you are in the music business then adding sound clips and video may serve your purpose. Don’t just add technologies because they are available add them because they improve the conversation. Remember, that blogs are a conversation. Consider that when posting and adding content. In summary – If you take the time to plan out your blog’s purpose, how often it will be updated and schedule the time necessary to achieve this, you will find a blog can be a valuable asset to your overall business plan. If you are not willing or able to do this then you will be disappointed with the results you receive from your blog.

Contact Information And Your Online Business

One of the biggest turnoffs is a website without contact information. Your customers must be able to reach you. There are many ways customers can contact you. You could display your phone number, your e-mail address, your mailing address, your instant messaging ID, your fax number, etc. Of course, that doesn't mean that you have two lists every one of them. There are some very successful online businesses that do not list their phone numbers. Whatever form of contact you prefer is fine as long as it satisfies your customers. You may have the type of business that demands phone contact, and it is unlikely to satisfy your customers to simply list your e-mail address as a form of contact. If your customers are technologically savvy people, they may prefer to contact you through e-mail. You may be in a business that caters to an older clientele, and you may not be able to get away with e-mail support. The form of contact options you list on your web site has to work for you customers. Frankly, the more options you give your customers to contact you to better. Even if you have a home-based business it is important to list your address. It is understandable if you don't want to list your home address but there are other ways around that. You can get a PO box very inexpensively and you can make it look like the real address. All you need to do is list the physical address of the post office and use your P.O. Box number as a suite number. No one will know that the address actually is a PO box number. It is simply good form to have your address available on the web site. Not only that you should have your contact information available online, it should be easy to find. If your listing your phone number on your website don't hide it. If you don't want people to call don't list your phone number. But if you do lists the number make sure it's easy to find. If you offer a toll-free number is best to list it on your home page.

“Rub” Out Your Noise And Vibration Issues With Rubber Molding

Noise and vibration can be controlled in various ways, including blocking, absorbing, isolating and damping the noise source. The dictionary defines damping as “the dissipation of energy by conversion to heat.” Because rubber has such a low damping factor, it is one of the best materials for noise and vibration control. That’s why rubber molding is an effective means of controlling noise, vibration and shock. How exactly does damping with rubber molding work? By reducing resonant vibration, it effectively mitigates both structural and impact noise. In effect, it produces a reduction in the inaudible sounds that are carried by structural surfaces. If these sounds are inaudible, why do they need to be reduced? Because at resonance (increase in amplitude of oscillation), a considerable amount of audible airborne noise may be generated by that sound. While damping does not absorb the noise’s initial impact, in terms of both time and magnitude, it does reduce the “pinging’ or “roar” that results from that impact. Whether the environment producing the noise is nautical, electrical, computer-related, aeronautical, or business-machine-applicable, rubber molding can eradicate the offending sound and vibration. When considering a rubber molding noise and vibration solution, look for a line of isolators and mounts that come in a variety of styles and sizes. From one pound to one ton, the right type of mount for your application is vital. Also, keep in mind that the thicker the damping material is, the more noise and vibration it will control. No matter what the source of your vibration isolation problem, if you keep these recommendations in mind, the noise, vibration and shock you’re currently contending with can be efficiently controlled. Choose a leader in the rubber molding industry, one that’s established a long track record of producing custom molded rubber parts, and that noise and vibration problem of yours won’t be a problem for very much longer.

SEO - Creating Organic Search Engine Optimization

Organic SEO is simply copy that is created by the visitors to your site who are able to leave comments in a forum, guest book, chat or blog. The reason this works so well is because the comments that your visitors leave on your site are often peppered with the very keyword phrases and keywords that you would use anyway to optimize your site. The constant adding of material in the form of visitor comments also attracts the attention of the search engine spiders. As your visitors are writing instead of you, you are saving yourself a lot of time and trouble. Another great thing about building an online community like this is that you are saved the time and trouble of searching for content –rich information in your niche as they will often just supply you with the questions that need to be answered. Once you answer them on a forum or blog, the search engines will crawl these responses, which helps you However it can be a real chore and a challenge to create an online community that people are want to be a part of. You have to be incredibly open to feedback. An online community has the same purpose as an offline one – it is simply a place where people create relationships and activities based on an interest in common. These sites usually consist of groups, chat rooms, message boards, blogs, games and other interactive features. However the main purpose of building an online community is to be able to sell to that online community by collecting affiliate residuals, commissions or royalty.

Start A Property Management Business

The property management business is a really good idea for someone who wants to make a decent income without taking too many risks. My foray into property management was purely by chance. I had about 15 flats in Dundee and employed a full time handy man to collect rents and sort out any minor repairs. My friend Chris knew that my properties were well managed and he asked if I would look after his mother's flats. I knew that she was not well and because of her health, in the last year half her flats had lain empty. I reluctantly agreed and started renting out her properties. I managed to get her occupancy up to over 90%. My charging structure was very simple as I kept 10% of her rent and she also paid all costs. She was delighted with my service and told her friends who approached me to do the same for them. Being busy but not wanting to say no straight away I offered to provide the same service but at 15% of the monthly rent. To my surprise they agreed. Word of mouth got around and soon I had to start turning people away as I was far too busy managing my packaging company to do property management full time! Had this business not been doing well I could easily have started managing properties full time. I even managed to buy a couple of apartments at knock down prices when one of my clients wanted a quick sale after his tenants left. They offered me the properties for the same price they had bought them for a couple of years ago. I knew the market had risen substantially since then and bought them straight away. I spent a couple of weeks doing them up and had them rented out in no time. When property prices started rising strongly I sold both of them, making decent money only to miss out on the real boom in prices! If you have time on your hands why not consider managing other people's properties? Be warned though that you are on call 24/7 if an emergency happens at any of the properties.

SEO - Displaying Clickbank Ads Can Be Good SEO

A discussion of displayed Ad Towers such as ClickAds Pro and how search engine optimized keywords can be used to bring targeted visitors to a website.

Google Adwords is not the end of the story when it comes to inviting the appropriate ads to displaying towers or panels of ad on your site. ClickAdsPro which displays Clickbank ads on your site also works well and has been known to increase traffic over three thousand percent.

Like Google programs, this program comes with a javascript generator that instantly creates dynamically linked pages. You can pretty much install the whole thing and have it running in a few minutes.

The reason that you want this type of program on your site is because the simple and quick installation makes it easy for you to increase ad revenue by monetizing the visitors to your site that aren't buying. This enables you to capitalize on your search engine optimized contextual advertising so that it brings visitors as well as income potential to your site.

Another great thing about this type of program is that it allows you to display target high quality affiliate programs on any type of web page. This selection process is based on a number of criteria including the subject area associated with the product, the ranking of the product and the commission that you earn as ad revenue.

The best type of software for this is the type that can be adjusted so that it looks nice and fits in with the colors and layout of your site. It is important to choose the format of towers or bars as well as the background color, border color and font of the click bank ads that you choose to display so that your SEO attempts are not really obvious to a web site visitor. Unfortunately many programs of this type are visually really intrusive and make it obvious that you are trying to sell something, which is just tacky!

Choosing A Web Site Hosting Company – The Most Important Factor

What is the most important factor in choosing a web site hosting company? Many new webmasters overlook the most important factor in making the selection. Some of the most important factors in choosing a web site hosting company are cost of a plan, features provided in that plan, technical support, location of the server, money back guarantee policy, uptime etc. There are so many factors actually. But which one of them is the most important? Without any doubts, the king of them all is prompt technical support. You can live with a higher priced plan, you can live without a few less features, you can live without the money back guarantee, but can you afford not to have round the clock prompt technical support? No, you can’t. Imagine this. You have some technical issue at 2 a.m. on Saturday and you find out the hard way that there is no one to answer your emails and provide technical support at that hour, what happens then? You wait in frustration. To top it all, the earliest response that you get is on Monday morning, which simply says that the matter is now being looked at. Is that enough? No, it’s definitely not enough. Your website could be down the whole of the weekend, do you want that? No, you definitely don’t. Good round the clock technical support not only ensures a good uptime of your website, but also of all its associated services like email, ftp, database etc. What you need from a good web site hosting provider is a true 24/7/365 technical support. Anything less is not desirable and not acceptable. The technical support staff should be available all days of the week, all days of the month and all days of the year including all public holidays like Christmas and New Year. Next time you are out looking for a good hosting company for your web site, you know what to look for first and foremost. You know what the most important factor is. Yes, true 24/7/365 technical support.

SEO - Using Pings To Improve Your Blog Search Engine Rankings

If you have a blog then you should definitely search engine optimize it by adding pings. If you are familiar with the way search engines rank web pages then you probably know by now that the more links that are indexed on your blog entry the higher your page rankings will be in the search engine ranking. This is especially true if the links that are indexed relate directly to the subject of your blog. This is valuable to remember and employ as an SEO (search engine optimization) strategy. So what exactly is a “ping?” Each time you update your blog your site can be automatically updated with links to related material by an RSS feed. This process is facilitated through search engine spiders, blogging trackers and tagging programs that deliberately seek out updated blog material and try to link to it. Once they find your fresh content, your indexed links are fattened by the addition of links to similar information on the net. When the search engine spiders crawl your pages, you are boosted by these pings which brings you more readers, more people clicking on your links and of course, more popularity. Most blogging templates now come with the option to allow you to add pings. If you say yes then tons of related links to other sites will automatically be indexed as material on your blog. Usually a site is pinged in about two days. This is one very simple form of SEO (search engine optimization) for smart affiliate marketer to quickly) and easily bring hundreds of targeted potential customers within reach of clicking on the links in your blog. Of course if you have a service or a product that is like a double entendre such as “spider” which can mean search engine spider or the biological form of life, you might not want pings added to your blog articles as they could bring you the wrong type of reader. Most blogging sites let you have the option of allowing pings or not for exactly that reason.

Three Mistakes All New Affiliates Make

Hi,my name is Curtis Bittorf.When I first started my home business,I knew nothing about running a successful online business.I made alot of mistakes,because I did not have the proper tools or the direction from someone to help me run a home business.Be aware of all the those programs out there that give you a free website,because everyone will have the exact same site that you do.What this means to you is that you'll never ever get traffic to your site or ranked in search engines like Google,MSN or Yahoo.This is the number one reason so many home businesses fail online!The biggest mistake the at home entrepreneur makes is thinking the size of the internet alone will drive their business. You need to differentiate your home business from the rest of your competition.How do I go about this you ask?Its quite simple,but it does take a little time and effort on your part. To make your home business differant,you must first get a domain name.This lets everyone know you're legit.If you use your free Url,(for example,www.marysdolls.com/johnson/123456),the search engines will not recognize you.Get your own domain name ,and to make it even better,try to use words in your domain that match your site.Search engines love this,for example,if your home business is a hardware store it would look something like this:www.hardwaretools.com. The second important thing you need is a web hosting site that can offer you more freedom.You need a web hosting site that allows you to make simple changes.These changes include how your site looks,the wording you use and the ability to upload images or content to your site. Now there is one more thing we need to discuss.You can have the best looking website or the greatest products on this planet but if you don't get traffic to your home page you will not succeed.You need to get links to your site and you can do this with a automatic link submitter or manually.Getting as many links as you can is so important to your success.More links equals more traffic,and traffic is your goal.

Tamper Evidence Seals—Ensuring Your Consumer Peace Of Mind

Who could ever forget the infamous Tylenol tampering case of 1982? When the popular over-the-counter pain reliever was found to have been laced with cyanide poisoning and to be the cause of seven deaths, a nationwide paranoia ensued. Although other such product tampering cases, albeit on a much smaller scale, have made headlines over the years, that incident may have single-handedly led to the invention of tamper resistant product seals. Today, everything from water and ketchup, to vitamins, medicine bottles and skincare products come with tamper resistant seals in place. This security measure affords consumers the peace of mind of knowing that their purchased products have remained untouched by sinister hands since leaving the manufacturer. As long as the tamper evidence seal remains unbroken and non-punctured, the item’s contents can be can be trusted to be pure and untainted. Tamper evident shrink bands that come wrapped around the outside of products are those most commonly seen these days. They usually come in clear or white plastic that is imprinted with the manufacturer’s logo. Because these tamper resistant seals are broken, they can’t be put back into place, thereby adding to consumer confidence in the company’s product and brand. For decorative use and for optimum protection, shrink bands can be coordinated with the label and printed with a company's logo or tag line. Preforms are pre-molded heat shrink bands used for tamper-evidence. Preforms are already opened, so just place it on the container and pass it through heat for an even seal. They are also useful for those containers that do not have shoulder. Preforms are available in clear, with a generic print, "Sealed for Freshness" or custom printed. Given the option of a tamper resistant bottle and a traditional bottle, the choice is obvious. Only the former can guarantee that what you are putting into your body contains only what its ingredient label claims is in the product.

Domain Names

The Internet has changed our lifestyle, and even our lives, in so many ways. We use the Internet to communicate, entertain, shop, work and even to find love. Our vocabularies are now peppered with new words and phrases that didn't even exist a decade ago. 'Domain Name' is one phrase of particular value to webmasters and Internet users alike. Domain names are distinct titles that recognize unique sites on the web. All domain names become a portion of the URL, or website address. There are generally three main components to domain names, each separated by a dot. To fully explain the nature and use of domain names, it's best to use a concrete example. One of the most common and widely identified domain names on the web today is http://www.google.com. Virtually every Internet user is familiar with Google. As in all domain names, the first section is "www", which stands for World Wide Web, the host server where the site is found. The second part, 'google', identifies the organization or company name. The third and final component, '.com', mirrors the type of organization. Web addresses that end in '.com' are generally considered to be top-level domain names. Other top-level domain names used on the Internet include .org for an organization, .gov for government agencies, .net for a network, and .edu for an educational institution. When searching online for websites, domain name experts contend that one of the best and easiest ways to locate organizations or companies is to incorporate the appropriate top-level domain name. Finding a particular site is easier if you know that the domain name ends in .org or .net. If you're looking for the FBI website, you'll try http://www.fbi.gov, because you know that it is a government site and will likely end with .gov. An exact and concrete awareness of domain names is key to finding the desired site. There are literally hundreds of thousands of domain names registered on the Internet.

Shut Your Trap

This is crazy. . . It's an older story, but very interesting in terms of when to talk and when not to talk. http://youtube.com/watch?v=WALIARHHLII This is a YouTube clip of a Miss Teen America contestant from South Carolina. She's answering the question, "Recent polls have shown that a fifth of Americans can't locate the U.S. on a world map. Why do you think this is?" When you see it written out word for word like this, it's even more frightening: "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps. And I believe that our education, like, such as in South Africa and the Iraq, everywhere, like such as, and I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S. or should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future for our children." I'm thinking she might have gotten left behind. Keep this clip in mind in relation to persuasion under the heading of 'when talking too much loses the sale'. Of course, for the most part, we aren't persuading thousands or even hundreds of people, and to be fair, we have no idea how hard it would be to endure that sort of pressure. However, out of the fifty girls, only one clip is circulating the internet. The other forty nine didn't blather on insanely. As persuaders, our goal is not simply to fill the air with words. We strive to aim our message directly at what our clients and prospects need. Of course, regardless of how pleasing this contestant's physical form was, whether or not she was attractive enough to win is not the point. She came in third and that truly indicates this was not an intelligence contest. She's not hard on the eyes, just hard on the ears. Ms. Upton's "answer" to the question can be a lesson for us: Less is often better. If you have no idea what you're talking about, best keep your mouth shut.

Look Before You Leap

Starting a new home business isn’t easy – or cheap; there are some things a home business owner needs to think about before diving in that pool. There is a little more flexibility when working from home, but for maximum profit, you need to think about who you’re catering to. This depends on what you’d like to do. If it’s an online store you’re looking to open up, you can work 24/7. On the other hand, if it’s a current career you’re carrying over to the home office, say law, then you need to be more realistic about hours. For something like that, the hours may need to be closer to 9 to 5. Unless you already have plenty of money from a previous career, you may want a loan for your start up money. Don’t worry; there are other options, too. For instance, you could look for a financial backer, benefactor or silent partner. These are people who would take an interest in you home business but not want to do a lot of the leg work; only providing monetary support. They may, however, ask for a little promotion in exchange. This is a wonderful option when compared to the rising interest rates. The second order of home business is licensing and permits. Do the research; look and see if the desired name is already taken. It is also agreed by several home business owners that a license be obtained. Having your company as an LLC, or Limited Liability Company, creates fewer risks financially if your company should be sued. An LLC puts a cap on one’s fiscal accountability, most generally the worth of the company. The same can be attributed to any investor(s) in the business. They are only responsible for the amount of their venture in the establishment. One more thing to think about is how well your home business may do. If there are a lot of choices and the owners are getting good profits, then you know that you are safe. However, if none of the owners are doing well, then there’s no market.
