Blog design

Copyright: Earl Williams
http://www.NetMarketer.org

It is great that the phrase blog floats around the net day in and day out, but what if you have no idea what a blog really is? Is this going to be helpful to your web site? No, not really. Here we will offer the skinny on the phrase blog, and you can decide for yourself if it may or may not be useful in your web pages. This way you will not be wasting your time on something you may not need, and the energy can be put to something you find more useful for yourself.

The term blog refers to web log and it is in every fashion not a commercial or professional site. It is more of the personal nature, for comment or web site material. Generally the most recent information on a blog is kept at the top of the page, all blogs are in dated log formats. Often they will have commentary of other sites or links directing you to them. Many times the site is dictated by group links and the log is updated frequently. The opinion is this is the very first web log; back in 1993 it was the Mosaic. This was generally a compiling of links that where kind of disregarded. It took until 1998 for they’re to be a mere handful of these so-called blogs in existence. The blogger all knew each other and were swapping the links between each other.

By the year 1999 this term blog was starting to pick up pace, and as a result became a phenomenon. Once it became free to the public, it really took off and was a pastime that was enjoyed by many. Web logs were hand coded by developers on the web before the software became available. The use of html was the main coding for this program, and the web designers at the time were pretty much the only ones that knew it. Now that this new software is available to the general public, anyone is capable of making a blog. The moment blogger was released in 1999 it became a huge success with the public. Now people are not restricted on what kind of web log they make, fast-forward to the year 2000 and people are making as many as 300-350 new blogs daily. There is actually a directory for all these blogs, and it contains as many as 5,500 entries. This is now a craze with over 750,000 blog users; this was not merely a passing trend obviously.

There are multiple tools these days for the people that are truly interested in blogging, this software can be found online and has become extremely popular. Check out the craze for yourself, and see what you think of it you may just enjoy it yourself.

Buying Wholesale

Copyright: Earl Williams
http://www.NetMarketer.org

So you have decided that you want to get into the whole wholesale marketing scheme, this is great as it is one of the fastest growing industries on the net, actually it is one of the fastest growing industries period. So, what have you decided to sell? Did you figure that part out, or are you still up in the air with this one? There are some very important things to consider when going with wholesale Internet marketing, capital is a big issue, yet many people who are savvy can get around this one. Sales pitch, well many people can research what seems to be working for others in this field. The biggest issue seems to be the storage and product capacity problem.

Have you ever considered selling stuff that people collect? What about sports cards? This is a very big market, and you could easily find space in even a modest sized home for the product to be shipped in mass quantity. This is a market that is taking off; there are people in every walk of life that collects sports cards. From hockey cards or baseball cards the product is still the same, small and easy to store until it is sold and shipped. You see the problem with choosing a large-scale item such as clothing, or stereo equipment, means that you will need adequate space to store it until you ship it. If you are just starting out, renting a storage space for the product makes for a sure fire crash in your profits. Not to mention the insurance you will want to take out to keep you and the wholesaler safe, in the event of theft.

This is why smaller items that are still popular may be the best bet for positive results and a chance to keep all of your profits. The option is there for the wholesaler to keep the product at there storage facility until the sale is final, and it is even possible for them to ship the item to the customer saving you the trouble. The major problem with this is, everything that the wholesaler has to do such as store and ship the items eats away at your profits. If they store it, they will charge you for the use of space. If they will ship it, they will ship it the way they want regardless if that ends up costing you more either way it matters not to them. This is because it will come out of your share in the end. This then takes you from a legitimate business partner to a simple run of the mill salesperson without most of the perks. Do you see a nasty change in your plans now?

If you still would like to get into just regular selling and don't have the space to store your product, then why not try setting up a website and selling other merchant items on your website like an affiliate program. This will get you into sales without all the cost. You won't be buying wholesale, but you still can make money at it.

Home Business Network Marketing

Copyright: Earl Williams
http://www.NetMarketer.org

Network marketing is not always easy for everyone. There are individuals who are very natural at talking with others and find it quite easy to be in a room full of strangers and talk about what they have to offer. Then there are those who are terrified of the very idea of network marketing and needing to talk to anyone about anything.

Network marketing does not have to be a horrible experience for you and you do not have to have a panic attack at the thought of attending one. When you prepare for network marketing and do not go in with your eyes closed, you will find that it will make an enormous difference in the productivity of your business. Network marketing can be beneficial in building a plethora of resources and contacts that you can have at your fingertips to propel your business forward.

If you do not have a briefcase, it would be wise to purchase one. In your briefcase, you can keep your business cards, brochures, and informative documents about your business and other items that you can use to talk to others about what you have to offer. Keep your briefcase with you at all times, especially when you go to events to network.

Decide in advance how many people you want to talk to and do just that. If it is your first time, you may only want to talk to three people. Although once you are there, you will probably find yourself relaxing and notice that you came home with more than three contacts. Do not forget the business cards of the people you meet. In the excitement, you may forget their names. It is a good idea to jot down some relevant information on the back of the card to help you remember why or why not you like that particular contact.

One way to get to know those who come to the event is to volunteer to greet people as they come in. You are the first person they meet and then you can go up to them during the meeting with some ground under your feet and not feel so terrified.

Being a good listener is a key to being a good at networking. If you spend all your time talking about yourself, and how good you are and very little time, listening to them you will be wasting your time. Remember, people like to talk about themselves and if you let them, they will and they will leave the event thinking how much they enjoyed talking to you and will remember you. This is also an excellent way to glean information about them and the business they have to offer.

Work at Home Scams

Copyright: Earl Williams
http://www.NetMarketer.org

Looking for those legitimate home business opportunities that are out there? They are really there, not all of them are scams. Make sure you always check with the Better Business Bureau before signing into any at home job. It is always better to find out about a scam before you have bought into it. Real businesses will be interested in what you are going to do for them. They will want to know that they will be represented in a becoming fashion that will make them more money in the long run from your success.

A real company that is looking for affiliates will not SPAM your e-mail with offers. These are the tools of the scam artists out there. They send bulk junk e-mails hoping someone will, and they do, will fall for it. The real companies will post the needs on sites that are relative to what they do and sell. You will go to a specific site of a specific company and it will have an advertisement to work at home. They will also expect you to seek them out and will probably not even bother with you till you make the initial contact. You will be able to find other sources in magazines and books related to business or a specific type of business as well. Even when you do find that legitimate at home business opportunity you will want to look at their history. You will want to know the experience others have had working for them and check the Better Business Bureau for any complaints. Never just invest with out digging around for a while.

There are some red flags to be looking for when searching for a home-based work opportunity. If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is. You should be wary of any business that offers you unrealistic amounts of money for mundane tasks like stuffing envelopes. If someone offers you thousands of dollars per hour to do nothing of any value then there is probably a problem. Think about it, would you pay someone $1000 per hour to watch television and eat Cheetos? Not likely. Real companies expect real work done right not laziness. Working from home does not mean you do nothing. If the company puts pressure on you to "decide now" or tries to force you to "buy now".

This is not a very good sign and is not legitimate. Real business owners want money but they want to know who you are and what you will be doing for their company’s name. They don’t want just anyone to be promoting them. Be wary of having to pay to get a job. You don’t have to pay the grocery store to work for them and it applies to at home jobs as well. More than likely this is a scam. Check your state agency to see if the previous buyers list is posted as required by law. If the company you are looking at doesn’t have one then don’t buy into it.

Easy Website Business

Copyright: Earl Williams
http://www.NetMarketer.org

Clearly one of the best methods for promoting your website or small net business is to use articles. This very simple way to give informative information and best of all it is free to use. You do not need to be a pro or a professional writer, to be able to place articles on your website. Having articles that are directly related to the theme of the site, will in turn give you an edge on the competition. By writing an article yourself and submitting it to the directory that you are using to get your articles, you then are feeding the community with great content for everyone to share.

There are literally hundreds of these directories of articles on the Internet, being a member of multiple web societies will yield more and more reference materials that you can benefit from. When making an article that you intend on placing on one of the many directories, it is very important to keep the required formatting in mind, there are some directories that wish for you to use no formatting, this is not a bad thing as in the end it will save you time not having to set the formatting up. Just make sure it is all done in a text document, and all will be fine.

Sometimes the directory will require a keyword to go along with the article, and may or may not ask for a brief description of the article in a separate box. Along with all this information, it is a great idea for you to have a resource box at the bottom of the article. This is an excellent way for you to give information about you, and the website or sites you may have. This is an excellent method of self-promotion. The key here is to generate as much traffic to your website as you can, by efficiently using web content and articles that appeal to people. This is very effective when you find great articles that pertain to your site in a whole.

There is a very good chance that if someone reads an entire article that you have written, that they will be willing to read more of your work. This can easily draw them to your site out of curiosity, and could generate a new sale. This new sale could then be referred to someone else looking for the same product or service, and again draw a new customer. Word of mouth on the Internet is a very powerful tool indeed. So in closing, it is clear that these services known as article directories do have a solid purpose in the way of generating more traffic to your intended target. That target is your website.
