Top Problem Faced By Content Publisher

 

Getting hold of good articles can be quite a challenge, especially when you are not a good writer yourself. Hiring writers can burn a hole in your pocket, as ROI takes about 3-6 months or even more, all the more so when you have to consistently get enough articles every month to keep your sites 'fresh'.

 

However, there are more and more websites offering 'shared' articles, i.e. you subscribe to their service and get and number of articles every month shared by a number of subscribers. Usually, these articles are written on current hot niche topics. And since you can change the article, you can rewrite them to make them 'unique'.

 

Here are the 2 offers:

 

1) Cody Moya's Your Own Articles: 250 articles every month

2) InfoGoRound

 

Certainly, all these original, not computer-generated articles enable the laziest of cash-seekers to:

 

- Generate unlimited FREE website traffic
- Boost your Google Adsense™ & affiliate commissions
- Launch content websites & newsletters & BLOGS literally overnight
- Create endless information products to sell online OR off
- Produce special reports & training courses etc.

 

Catch the "Content Article Wave" before everyone else is doing it.

Don't Forget About Offline Advertising

 

A lot of online businesses forget about offline advertising. It is important to combine offline and online advertising together in your marketing campaign. You can market offline more effectively by targeting people that actually have access to the Internet. In all your advertising you want to include your website address, e-mail or autoresponder addresses, and the e-mail address to subscribe to your e-zine. Below are 10 offline marketing ideas:


1. Place classified or full page ads in print publications. The print publications should be computer or internet related.

 

2. Post flyers in stores. They could be computer stores, software stores, libraries etc.

 

3. Buy mailing lists and send direct mail. You should make sure that all the people on the mailing list are Internet users.

 

4. Buy commercial time on TV. They can be during shows that are targeted toward Internet users.

 

5. Pass out your CD-ROM or diskette business cards at special events. It could be at trade shows, seminars, fairs, etc.

 

6. Set up a deal with another business that targets Internet users. Pay the business to insert your business ads in their product packages.

 

7. Hold a free offline class and teach people how to use their computer or how to use the Internet. You could have your website on display as an example.

 

8. Do co-op mailings with other businesses. They should also be targeting people with Internet access.

 

9. Give away free mouse pads. Put your advertising on the mouse pads and give them away at computer or Internet events.

 

10. Advertise in card decks. The card deck you advertise in should be targeted toward internet users.

 

You would also want to target your offline advertising to groups of people that will actually be interested in your product or service. If you're selling business books, you will want to market to business owners. In conclusion, if you have a business that's only based online, you don't want to market to people that don't have access to the Internet.

Plopping: What To Do About It by Rick Brenner

 

When we offer a contribution to a discussion, and everyone ignores it and moves on, we sometimes feel that our contribution has 'plopped'. We feel devalued. Rarely is this interpretation correct. What is going on? Let's find out.

12 Ways To Be Happy

The Key To Passion Is...

 

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

12 Ways To Be Happy

 

1. Make up your mind to be happy. Learn to find pleasure in simple things.

2. Make the best of your circumstances. No one has everything, and everyone has something of sorrow intermingled with gladness of life. The trick is to make the laughter outweigh the tears.

3. Don't take yourself too seriously. Don't think that somehow you should be protected from misfortune that befalls other people.

4. You can't please everybody. Don't let criticism worry you.

5. Don't let your neighbor set your standards. Be your true self and best self.

6. Do the things you enjoy doing but stay out of debt.

7. Never borrow trouble. Imaginary things are harder to bear than real ones.

8. Since hate poisons the soul, do not cherish jealousy. Avoid people who make you unhappy.

9. Have many interests. If you can't travel, read about new places.

10. Don't hold postmortems. Don't spend your time brooding over sorrows or mistakes. Don't be one who never gets over things.

11. Do what you can for those less fortunate than yourself.

12. Keep busy at something. A busy person never has time to be unhappy.

The Key To Passion Is...

 

On Saturday, I brought a friend along to attend a self-development seminar called "The Science Of Achievement" (hence the delay of this issue). During a break we discussed over lessons learnt and what is currently the biggest challenge each of us are facing and must overcome. And my friend said, "Every day first thing at the office is quickly clear all the e-mails. When I get home, all the little houseworks add up to so much. Ever since I had a child, I've become a changed man; I never read the papers anymore. I can still squeeze a bit more time for something but finding that something I really wanted to do is...I have no idea."

 

"Maybe you haven't sit down and identify your interest," I said. We banter a little more to probe further before I realized we were about to go around in circles.

 

"Have you thought why you have no passion in anything you are looking at?" I finally asked.

 

"...I don't know."

 

"You have never fallen in love."

 

That's about it. He went silent and I must have hit at his hot button. Cheers! – Nelson
