What's Happening With Email?





We have come a long way
from the pony express.
And because we have always
had a need to stay in
touch new technology has been created to help us do that easier
and faster.

With technology came new ways of staying connected - the telegraph,
the telephone,the television, the computer and email.


With the addition of each new technology has
come the new age of scam artists. Spam, scams,
and unethical marketing has taken the
technology of electronic mail into new territory.
Marketers who are trying to get their messages
read are flooding their subscriber's inboxes with duplicate emails
with the hope that at least one will make it through "the filters".

The result is marketers are sending massive amounts of email
that must be sifted through and deleted. Now, this takes a
considerable amount of time. It takes time to download your
messages, time to sort through it all and decide what you want
to keep and what you want to delete. Time to unsubscribe if you
decide you want to do that. And time to delete your deleted files.
The time it takes to manage your email these days has become
overwhelming.

But there is an answer, and I have found it.

QUICKONNEX IS THE ANSWER!

If you are a publisher you need this. If you simply want to stay in touch
without having to use email, you need this. Subscribing is free. Get your
friends and family
signed up and say good-bye to email. I know I want to
make sure the people I am
trying to stay in touch with are getting my
communication. With Quickonnex you can.

I'm sorry, I just can't believe the state of my inbox. I need to get out. How about you?

Let me know what you think...

To your sanity,

What Good is a Blog if it Doesn't Get Read

**********************************************************************************************



Blogging for Business
******************
Blogging is a great way to get your business seen in a way that people don't fee like they're being sold. You can build relationships and trust and still get your ideas and products exposed to the market you're after.
But what good is a blog if it isn't read? You put all that effort into posting and pasting but nobody ever sees it!
I just came across a great new tool. Click on the banner above and you will see what I mean.
The last time I blog surfed I got a very rude view of some womans privates parts. Needless to say I haven't surfed since. Yet, surfing is a great way to find the unexpected. It takes you out of your mind and lets the universe bring whatever it will. That is when you find the jewels.
So go surfing today and earn yourself some traffic for your blog by clicking on the banner above.

Creating Great Content


CONTENT IS KING!

In continuing with the thoughts I was sharing with you in my last post...Content is King!

There are three basic ingredients that will help build the popularity of your site with the search engines and bring you organic traffic.

  1. Keyword density
  2. Relevant links
  3. Content

We will eventually cover all three of these ingredients but for now lets focus on content, because first and foremost this is what your visitor is looking for. And in a way, the idea of content overlaps each of the other ingredients as well.

The content on your web site needs to be relevant to the product you are selling or the service you are providing. Only include information that is pertinent to your site's theme.

Your first statement needs to be bold and it needs to let your visitor know exactly what you are going to be sharing with them. You might try starting out with your conclusion. Then your reader will be curious about how or why you reach that conclusion.

KISS - Keep it short and simple. No long wordy explanations that might loose your reader as to the purpose of your statement. And no big technological terms that the reader might not recognize.

Read it outloud to yourself to hear how it reads. Make sure and proofread it for typos. Don't depend on your spellcheck.

If you simply don't have the time for all this then hire someone to do it for you. I know how busy small business owners are just keeping their business running. To do the work of marketing and to do it well is often times just not possible.

That's my purpose behind Organic Marketing Solutions . I could help you with affordable solutions.

Another solution is RSS FEED... You can actually set your site up to receive relevent content automatically. A very simple to use, affordable software that does just that is called

Provide good, fresh, consistent content and your visitor will come back and refer friends. You will be surprised at the results.

To Your Success,

Marketing Your Business with Content


The internet has always been known as the information highway. While people are going to the internet more and more to purchase items they might not be able to find locally, that which is most sought after is still information. No matter what your business site might be selling or promoting, it needs to have quality information to bring the people to visit you.

Getting someone to look at your business means inviting them to have a relationship with you. Sharing the information your visitor is looking for means they will stay and have a look and if the information is good and fresh they will come back. If the information is good and fresh when they come back then they will return again and again. In this way you are building a relationship with that visitor and they are more likely to trust you when they need your services or product. You have made a friend and friends buy from friends. Friends tell other friends about the new friend they have made and all the great information they got.

Be patient and build the relationship and the rest will come, and it will be good. I am a gardener and I understand about patience. It takes time for the seed to germinate, grow and produce fruit. But the fruit is always worth waiting for. So it is in building relationships with your web site visitors. Focus on giving your best. Use the best soil, quality fertilizer and clean, fresh water and the seed will spring forth and produce the best of fruit.
