Above And Beyond Promotion

What is your TOP 10 website promotion list?

My TOP 10 promotion list. What is your top 10?

1. Search engines.
2. Forums and Message boards are a great way to promote your link. Just put the link in your signature.
3. Use Free Ad Boards. for eg. http://BusinessFreeAd.com or http://ovgo.com These are boards that you can post a text ad free for a pre-determined period of time, usually 5 to 10 days. Then your ad expires and you are emailed the option to re-post your ad free for another cycle.
4. Free classifieds are a fast and easy way for you to start marketing, especially if you’re new to internet marketing. For eg. http://tumano.com , UsFreAds.com, etc
5. Pay per click (PPC) is now one of the most popular way to advertise in the Internet. Use Google Adwords, Yahoo! Sponsored Search, etc.
6. Social Bookmarking. Submit your links to social bookmark networks such as digg and del.icio.us
7. Use social networks such as facebook, myspace, linkedin, yuwie.com
8. Publish an E-Mail Newsletter. While it’s a big commitment in time, publishing a monthly e-mail newsletter (“ezine”) is one of the very best ways to keep in touch with your prospects, generate trust, develop brand awareness, and build future business.
9. Install a “Signature” in your E-Mail Program to help potential customers get in touch with you.
10. Write Articles for Others to Use in their Newsletters. One of the best means of marketing is by submitting articles to online article directories.

Nr.11 Register a domain and redirect the visitors. It’s a lot easier for people to find you if you have your own domain name rather than anonymousblog.blogspot. com.

Do you also think that Google Home Biz is a scam?

So…I can’t believe that I fell in this trap but I did…so just to warn others. There are more posts related to this on Yahoo answers, but a little older…so I thought I would refresh the info. There are a lot of internet money making scams out there, but these people get better and better. They advertise on what it seems like legit websites, they say they will only charge you $1 for shipping fees and they put Google in their name to make it more credible. Anyway, after one pays the $1 then you can see if you look carefully on the bottom of the page, with very small letters, that they will charge you a membership fee of ~79 monthly. They never say anything about this before you pay. Below I pasted the e-mail confirmation I got from them…and it says something about a membership fee now, but still not how much it is. People apparently got charged the amount after 7 days without even knowing why. Anyway…right after I signed up for it I called the 1-800- number listed below and they cancelled my account. But still I’m worried about my credit card…I’ll have to watch it carefully!
So…be careful out there…all these internet money making websites are scam!

~ ADVERTISING PARTNERS ~
To maximize your marketing dollar, partnering with other advertisers is a good plan. Who are potential partners? Anyone who reaches the same target market that you do. Once you have determined this, you and your partner choose promotional strategies that will benefit both of you. In order to find suitable partners, the first step is to define your target market as specifically as possible. The more detailed you are in defining your customers, and deciding which customers to serve, will help you form better partnerships. The next step is to determine who else targets this same group of people. The products or services they offer may be complementary to yours, or they may not relate to each other at all. The key is that they reach the same market and that joint marketing with them makes sense. Step three is very important. Once you have identified several potential partners, look at them carefully. Are they companies and people that you would feel comfortable working with and being associated? Consider their reputations, goals, methods, etc. Do not lose your integrity for the sake of a sale. The next step is to approach the businesses with ideas on how you can work together to promote your own and each other’s businesses. This is when you must get creative. Your strategies will depend on the type of businesses that you and your partners have. Think of how your products and services can complement each other. You do not have to come up with a lot of ideas at once. Think of a few to approach new partners which show a clear benefit to the partners. You will want to keep the first joint promotions simple and geared for success. This will encourage your partners to continue the relationship. As you work together, you will come up with more ideas. Here are a few simple ideas to get you started— · if your business involves a party plan, give joint parties with a related business, for example, kitchen gadgets and food products, or children’s clothing and children’s books. · include your partner’s brochure with your customer’s orders – give your customers a small gift, gift certificate or coupon from your partner’s business with each order. · present a joint workshop or seminar. · include three partners in a special promotion. If customers make a purchase from 2 partners in a specific month, they receive a product from the third partner at no cost. Who can be partners? Just about anyone. Here are some of the more logical ideas. · realtors/home repair/home decorating · children’s books/children’s toys/children’s clothing · kitchen gadgets and utensils/any food product · accountants/financial planners/financial products · sporting goods/fitness clubs/fitness trainers · web designers/website hosts · graphic designers/web designers · copy shops/graphic designers/desktop publishing/business services · music stores/composers/music teachers · make-up/beauty consultants/beauty shops/massage therapists · antiques/furniture refinishers/interior designers You get the idea. I have given you some of the more logical partnerships. Do not limit yourself to these. If you have ideas for unique partnerships or any other marketing partnerships ideas, send them to me by e-mail. I will include them in a future article.

Could someone summarize this in 2-3 sentences?

Would you provide a copy of your credit card to a company?

I’m shopping online. They require a photocopy, or scanned copy of my credit card and my passport to verify my identity. While this seems excessive, it is somewhat reasonable.

I’m conducting the transaction internaionally, if that should hold any relevance.

This is what their policy says:
If you are a first time international customer or an existing international customer using a new credit card you must be verified prior to your order being shipped. Verification requires you to fax to (770) 333-4242 or email to sales@keh.com a copy of the front and back of the credit card, and your passport or drivers license along with your order number and telephone number.

the company is www.keh.com
They also share their information with third parties:
“Agents
We employ other third parties to perform services or functions on our behalf in order to improve our site, merchandising, marketing and promotional efforts, communications or other services. Those third parties include authorized contractors, consultants and other companies working with us (collectively, “agents”). They only have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, and may not share any personal information with others or use it for any other purpose than improving KEHs’ services and offerings.

Advertisers
We work with third party advertising companies, such as Google, Yahoo, Miva , etc. to serve and track our ads. These third parties may serve other cookies.

Third Party Sites
You may visit other web sites, through links on our site, who may collect, use and share your personal information in accordance with their own privacy policies. The information practices of those websites linking from or to our site are not covered by this Policy, and we encourage you to be very cautious before you disclose your personal information to others. It is possible that KEH could merge with or be acquired by another business entity. Should such an event occur, you should expect that KEH would share some or all of your information in order to continue to provide such products and services.”

What do you think? while reptuable, i’m skepticable.

Who is quitting smoking after this? Start stocking up on your empty packs of cigarettes?

all cigarettes will have to be sold in plain packets by the start of 2012 under a radical government plan to remove one of the remaining forms of tobacco advertising.A ban on distinctive packaging has been recommended by the National Preventative Health Taskforce, the Cancer Council and the Preventative Health Association.The laws will stop the use of industry logos, colours, brand imagery or promotional words. Brand names and product names will be permitted but must be in a standard colour, style and position. Health warnings will remain compulsory.The government will road-test designs so they are less appealing, especially to younger people.

Why whenever I’m online windows open till my computer freezes?

The other day I was serfing the net for a good tube (since youtube is getting rather anoying) One that I stumbbled upon caused a bunch of popups…. but the problem is now whenever I type somthing in a search engine a bunch of new windows open up with advertisment on that item.

Example: On yahoo search engine I type in “Puppies” then click on a website like “Puppyfind.com” Then all these windows open advertising pupppies! Buzznet, Find it.com, Ebay ect.

Now this has happend before, and I had to do a system restore. So I went to do a system restore… and ALL my restore points had been wiped right up to that momment my Laptop got infected!

I Dont know what to do now… I have pop up blocker and anti virus and anti spy ware all that stuff…

And please if you suggest a program please be sure it has a free trial because so many times I downloaded a program to fix a problem and it ends up not working and I waste my money.

Any help will be appriciated.
Just so everyone knows it is not a particular website that does this, it happens anywere on the net… whatever I am trying to look up I get bombarded by adds.
My anti-virus has SPYWARE I think this is a worm or adware.

Have you noticed this question?

“What is the best way to make money online” Everytime I visit yahoo answers that question is always asked. Then later someone (maybe the asker using different username) will answer and he will give you a link to a website of a networking organization that will ask a one time fee as membership. Both the asker and the one pretending to answer just registered the same day. So can we report this? They are advertising their gimmicks for free. Its tempting, you know..making money..

How to create my own free website?

I have created an online business for computing help. I do not plan on meeting anybody in real life or communicating via a phone. My business will be like Yahoo Answers but only for computers and I need to advertise it and I need to make a website but I don’t know how and what website to make it from. It feels strange that a computer expert needs to ask this question, but I do. I am going to advertise my website on each Yahoo Answers answer that I give. Maybe I might need a forum? What is best and how do I go about it.

blogging question?? need answer?

there are many websites online that provide free blogging. And there is a program called google ad sense where you advertise ads from google and get a small paycheck for every ad click. So does the website do anything if you are profitting from it?

Does yahoo provide free blogging? Where?

How to get your blogs on yahoo, msn etc?
