<![CDATA[The latest creation from Seiko Watches doesn’t disappoint. Inspired by their new partnership with the International 49er Class Association, the Velatura Yachting Timer provides that important precision to give any competitor the edge they need to set them apart from their competitors. Both of the new Yachting Timers provide race specific features which are vital to ensure pole position and precise, to the second timing.

The recent sponsorship partnership has put Seiko in the forefront of 49er class “yacht” racing. This high endurance water sport combines a 32 knot, 4.9 meter dingy boat and two daring sailors, each race being as much of a challenge and as incredibly exciting as the last. This high performance sport demands nothing less than the accuracy, precision and expert time keeping of the Seiko brand. While perfecting the creation of the Yachting Timer watches, the consultation of the 49ers was a key part of the design process.

Functionally, the watches offer a pre-race countdown timer which can be set to sound at 10, 6 or 5 minutes before the start of the race with distinct colouring on the dial to make the intervals clear to the wearer. A contrasting red colour hand carefully and precisely counts down the seconds to the race making sure you never miss that ever important second. Then the gun sounds, the race begins and the Velatura Timer takes over immediately, recording each second of the race

<![CDATA[Word is starting to spread around about another new change to Google's algorithm coming very soon. But once again, it has to with our favorite topic . . . Relevancy. Here's the scoop. The number of back links you have will be taking a back seat to the relevancy of those back links. In other words, you could have thousands of links pointing to your site, but only those links relative to your keywords will count towards your site's link popularity. We've seen this before however, when the link farms took a nose dive due to being a totally irrelevant mass of unstructured linkings. And any SEO expert who's worth his or her weight have been telling you that the best way to control your off site SEO is with relevancy. Now before anyone calls this another Google Slap, you need to know why this is really a good thing for article marketing. Article directories are set up so that each category, sub-category, and sub-sub-category are considered by the search engines as separate entities from the directory as a whole. This means that when you place your article into an appropriate and relevant category to your article's keywords, the back link you'll receive once its posted will be considered legitimate and will count toward your link's popularity. So as long as you're submitting your articles into the right categories, this algorithm change will only help you build strong back links and get your articles into the listings for relevant searches. On the other hand, frivolous article placement, or generalized category selection will turn your article submissions into a total waste of time. Not only do you run the risk of not getting your articles approved for posting by the directory owners, but even if they did post them, they won't count and if anything will actually hurt both you and them. As this new algorithm is applied, you'll begin seeing the article directories scrambling to find ways to keep irrelevant content out of their categories. And your only way in would be to follow suit and submit relevant material. But again, if you're following any of the tips from the top SEO experts pertaining to off site optimization, then you'll want to comply willingly. Here's something to think about . . . When you submit an article, consider yourself part of a huge machine. The search engines are, of course the engine driving the machine. The destination this machine wants the engine to drive it to is a place called "Absolute Relevancy." Your content is the fuel for the engine that keeps it going. Supply the wrong fuel and it'll gum things up and seize the engine. However, the engines keep getting redesigned to assure that improper fuel doesn't clog them up so they can reach their destination point safely. Thus each new algorithm is just another filter to push the bad fuel out through the exhaust and away from the working parts. It's that simple! Provide good quality, highly relevant content and you'll be helping the huge machine, and in turn, you'll be rewarded with legitimate back links, your readers will be able to easily find you, and you'll be able to maintain a lasting presence on the web. Remember, good SEO isn't about finding the latest "black hat" techniques to dupe the search engines. Rather, it's about legitimacy, relevancy, working with and benefiting from what the search engines are doing to provide the very best content available for any search query. Follow suit, and you're an instant SEO Expert!

Article Submitter Pro gives you full control over your article submissions so you never have to worry if your articles are being submitted right, or if they end up in the best possible category. Completely SEO and algorithm friendly article marketing.]]>

<![CDATA[Network Marketing is the ordinary person's best opportunity to make extraordinary income. Network marketing requires 3 main ingredients....time, effort, and yes - money. Time is just a matter of redirecting your habits. Not easy but doable. Time directly impacts your efficiency. Effort is entirely controllable by the individual....and directly impacts your effectiveness. Money is self limiting and directly affects both efficiency and effectiveness. An individual must find the best combination of the three that works for them. Everyone is looking for that big network marketing secret that is going to take their business to the next level. Most of the network marketing secrets being used by the pros are very simple, and most effective, and they prove time and time again that they work. Here is a list of my all time favorite network marketing secrets: Stay Focused There are many distractions when working from home. Have a weekly meeting with yourself to focus on what needs to be done. Ask yourself if you have done all that you could to grow your business throughout the week. Stay focused and make sure you are taking the necessary steps to reach your vision. Be Consistent This is my favorite network marketing secret. Be sure you are following your plan and going trough your success guide and applying each strategy. Have a written list of your daily activity. If your plan is to post in 5 different forums in a day and you only got 4 done, then commit to posting to 6 tomorrow. Don't finish work until you achieve your tasks for that day. Do not compromise. Create A Burning Desire You'll get more sales and sign-ups by appealing to emotion than by appealing to logic. Your web site, sales letters, video/audio tapes and other sales tools should dramatize the emotional rewards your prospect gets from using your company's products or by becoming a distributor in your downline. Generate Low Cost Inquiries (Leads) Use small ads, postcards and other low cost methods to generate inquiries (or web site traffic) from prospects in your targeted niche market. Talk About It Never pass up an opportunity to talk about your business or products. Establish yourself as an expert by talking about business and marketing related subjects, and when people find out what you do, they'll automatically be interested. Remember the best network marketing secrets are the simplest ones, just remember to be consistent with your efforts It takes time to build a business, you will not make your fortune in your first week or month. Work constantly on reaching your goals. Focus on your vision, be consistent and follow your plan. Continually improve your skills and attitude.

<![CDATA[Effective SEO Comes Cheap

The author can be contacted at http://www.internetcashmonster.com

Search engine optimization or SEO is the hottest way, fastest and only way to drive targeted traffic to your website. Maximizing the benefits of a well optimized website will yield lots of earnings for the marketer. However, optimizing your site might cost you thousands of dollars if you are not skilled in this area. This is not to say that spending a fortune on SEO implementation or hiring a professional is a waste, but because of budget or financial limitations, you might want to consider cheaper alternatives. Sometimes, the best things out there are free.

But to tell you the truth, you can essentially get information on low cost SEO anywhere in the Internet. But only several really show you how to work out an affordable search engine optimization endeavor. And those few that really inform include this article.

1. Link exchanges

One cheap SEO method that can get you best results is through link exchanges or linking to and from other web sites. Depending on the websites that you would like to exchange links with, this tool could even cost you nothing at all. Contact the author or owner of the web site you want to have a link exchange with. You will be surprised with the eventual spiking up of your page ranking using this means of getting your website optimized. Exchanging links with sites which have the same kind of keywords will improve your ranking tremendously. Be careful not to add too many outgoing links on a single page especially from crummy and spammy sites, because Google will rank that page poorly.

2. Write or acquire key word rich articles

Writing truly informative and keyword-rich articles is one surefire way to make your Internet business more visible than ever. It's either you write your own articles or you get them from article directories that allow you to post these articles on your website as long as you keep the resource box or the author's byline in tact. Just don't stuff your articles with keywords that even idiots would get bore of reading them. The readability and freshness of your articles will still be the basis of whether your writers will keep on coming back to your website or not.

3. Catchy Domain Name

What better will make your target visitors remember your website but with a very easy-to-recall domain name. Something sweet and short will prove to be very invaluable. Registering your domain name is not for free. But creativity is. Another note, is to avoid using hyphenation or numbers for long domain names that seems like a keyphrase, e.g, www.how-2-start-online-business.com keep it short, but catchy.

4. Organize your site navigation

Providing easy steps in navigating your site is one way to make your visitors become at ease with your site. This, in turn, will improve the flow of traffic to your website. Using a php include function to recall the same navigation bar for every page would be helpful.

Low cost SEO is always evolving like any other approach in information technology. There are many methods that can very well land you on the top ten rankings of Google or on any other search engines. Some may cost a lot but there are methods that can give you the same results at a low price or you can even do on your own such as those

<![CDATA[Using streaming videos in the internet as a form of marketing is a relatively new approach. Currently, most marketing brochures and newsletters are using text and pictures in combination to attract a consumer’s attention. Some pictures are a combination of still and animated objects to better the chances of attracting a prospective customer. But, if there is anything advertisers and consumers have learned about marketing, television advertisements are still the best way to attract attention for a product and keep it in the consumer’s memory. To fully understand why internet streaming videos are the next step in online marketing, we need to be able to grasp the objective of advertisers and the effects of the different methods of advertising. To begin with, online advertising began mainly with newsletters in the form of emails or pop-up screens containing pure text and some inanimate pictures. As internet users became more and more accustomed to surfing the WWW, these newsletters and pop-up advertisements gradually turned into annoyances. Marketing newsletters started to look like junk mail and pop-up screens became similar to billboard advertisements that you see everyday. Also, pop-up screens disturbs the rhythm of internet surfing. There you are browsing away when you see a link or article which you decide to follow or read. Just as you are about to click on it or just as you are in the middle of reading it, the pop-up appears and displaces your current browser window behind it. In short, these common forms of advertising soon became major annoyances in most cases that anti virus software developers soon added anti pop-up features in their products thereby drastically reducing the number of consumers that these pop-ups were able to reach. To add emphasis to the drive against pop-up advertising windows, Mozilla developed a built-in anti-pop up utility into their web browser, Firefox. Just as the pop-window is about to open, Firefox immediately denies the opening of this new browser window. Nowadays, I rarely see pop-up screens on my computer when I browse the WWW. As far as email newsletters and advertisements are concerned, a similar phenomenon is occurring where they have suddenly evolved into what is known as junk mail or spam mail in internet language. Again, anti-virus protection software creators incorporated spam mail protection within their software while numerous sites in the internet make available free, downloadable anti-spam software. The biggest blow to spam email marketing was when e-mail providers decided to add anti-spam or spam blocking utilities in their website. As a result of these measures against pop-ups and spam messaging, an avenue in internet marketing is about to close. Curiosity is perhaps the most powerful motivator in a person. Video grabs a person’s curiosity faster than you can blink (that’s because you won’t be blinking). After their attention is focused on the video the key is to maintain or improve on that initial level of interest. Animated pictures and videos are very powerful internet marketing tools. If a marketing video upon its creation is imbued with humor, a bit of suspense and, finally, relevance to the general public, its effects will be visibly seen in the black ink accountants’ use in their books to indicate income. The best way to grab a person’s attention is by arousing his curiosity through the use of internet videos. Please remember that when you want to sell an idea or product, internet marketing with streaming video is the fastest and most efficient tool when it comes to getting your message across. Human beings are very curious animals and they love good stories. Always remember as good as the video is the quality of the product still matters in the end.

<![CDATA[Not having enough money for retirement is the number one financial worry of Americans. This is according to Gallup’s annual Personal Finance poll, updated in April 2007, in which Americans were asked to rate the amount of concern they have about each of several financial problems. The baby boomer generation is retiring and facing up to the fact that not only have they not saved enough, they are living longer, getting less support from the state than ever and inflation is eating into their savings. Of the eight specific items rated in this year’s poll, “not having enough money for retirement” generates the most concern, writes Lydia Saad of Gallup News Service. “Even a majority of Americans in upper-income households say they are “very” or “moderately” worried about their retirement income.” These remarks by President Bush at the 2002 National Summit on Retirement Savings
Capital Hilton Hotel
Washington, D.C., are very interesting. “Just over a hundred years ago, at the turn of the last century, the average life expectancy in America was only 47 years. Today, that number has increased by three full decades. This amazing advance in the health of Americans is also profoundly changing our society. Americans who retire today may have decades of healthy life before them. This is time to volunteer, making seniors one of the greatest resources of compassion in America. This is time for family to pass on values to grandchildren and to strengthen the bonds between grandparents and family members. And, increasingly, retirement is a time of new beginnings: a time to travel and explore; a time to take up new hobbies; and a time to take up new careers. Some 80 percent of baby boomers — I happen to be one — say they plan to work at least part-time in retirement. And smart employers will be wise to use their experience, and their competence. The choices seniors make in retirement should not be limited by arbitrary dates, or obsolete stereotypes. Increasingly, the choices of seniors will only be limited by two things: the state of their health, and the state of their savings. Because the nature of retirement is changing, the needs of retirement are changing as well. Older Americans now require a retirement nest egg large enough for decades of enjoyment and ambition. As medicine increases the length of life, adequate savings must increase the options we have on longer lives. Saving is never easy; it’s hard for some to do. But it’s always worthwhile. Particularly when you think about the power of compounding interest. The power of compound interest is one of the great advantages of American citizens. And they must learn to use it. If a worker starts saving just $20 a week at age 22, and earns a 5.5 percent real interest rate on the investment, that adds up to a nest egg of nearly $180,000 by age 65. This summit was created by Congress to educate workers and citizens about the power and rewards of saving, and I want to thank you for participating. You’ve accomplished a great deal, but there’s much more to do. Americans are saving too little — often, dangerously too little. The average 50-year-old in America has less than $40,000 in personal financial wealth. The average American retires with only enough savings to provide 60 percent of his former annual income. This problem is especially acute for women and minorities.” Retirement is the time to enjoy the rest of your life. I believe you can only do this if your income is consistent and reliable, grows to meet cost of living increases and, is not diminished by taxation losses. I believe you will also want to protect your capital so it is available for your own use or the future use of your beneficiaries. Looking forward to a more relaxed lifestyle…never having to get up for work again…having the time to do the things you’ve put off for years…travel…seeing more of friends and family

<![CDATA[Creating information products can be an extremely effective and profitable exercise. Unfortunately, most people spend many hours creating a product that nobody wants. You need to be very precise in your approach to creating "digital goods."

These products include reports, books, telesiminars, E-zines, tutorials, interviews and many other "knowledge based goods."

Information products can be created with little or no money. Basically all that’s needed is domain, hosting and a copy of Acrobat so you can PDF files. That's it!

When creating information products you need to design a plan of action. Your first step needs to be finding a product that has a high demand. Make sure your creating a product people want and are willing to spend money on.

Your product needs to have valuable information, but it also has to provide easy to read and easy to apply instructions. The easier to understand the better.

There's no secret you can make a very nice living off of creating information products alone. Some of the most profitable products are MP3 recordings, ebooks and digital downloads.

When your customers feel like they received valuable information from you, more often than not, they will be back to buy more items from you in the future.

Remember, you can sell your products worldwide, by way of online stores such as e-bay, Craig list, Clickbank, network marketing communities. etc.

Creating information products can be a lot of fun and very gratifying to know you helped someone with a problem they might of been having. Creating products can also be very profitable.

You will make mistakes along the way, that's natural, but you will have started in the right direction. If you follow some of the ideas I have layed out here, you will be on your way to creating your own profit pulling products that will be bringing you money for
years to come.

<![CDATA[

There is one key consistent factor that distinguishes exceptional sales professionals from mediocre ones. It is Persistent and Consistent Follow-up with your customer. This will transform your one-time customers into repeat clients.

What if your customers recommended your business to their friends and colleagues? Do your customers know how much you appreciate their business? What if you could do all this without spending a fortune?

To establish goodwill and rapport with your customer, you should start to thank your customer and show them your appreciation. This is important for service businesses. Thus, service businesses must focus on quality of execution and customer service to achieve brand differentiation.

Here are some of the suggestions. These techniques can be implemented either free or with a minimal investment.

Technique 1

Send your customers a thank you e-mail. As soon as the first part of a transaction is complete (an order is submitted, a contract is signed, etc), send an email to thank the customer and to confirm that you have started the fulfillment process.

Don't just simply stop here. You should also send e-mail when you ship the product, if the order involves physical goods. If your business provides a service, keep the customer updated on your development towards reaching the agreed-upon goal. The completion of a service module or milestone could be a good time for a status update. Use these communication opportunities to thank your customers.

Technique 2

You need to show your appreciation to the customer. Thanking the customers doesn't stop once the transaction is complete and an order is received. There could be doubts from your customers about the products or services you offered. The quality of post-sale customer service is going to make a crucial difference between a customer coming back to you or choosing your competitor in the future. Provide exceptional customer service now to get repeat business later.

Technique 3

Thank your customers by sending Thanksgiving cards. This is a highly unconventional approach, but it is effective. By sending out Thanksgiving cards you will differentiate your business from your competitors and use this as an additional opportunity to thank your customers.

Successful business owners should always invest time and effort into thanking their customers. This could pay off ten-fold through repeat business and word-of-mouth advertising.

<![CDATA[People from third-world or developing countries who want to get updated or advanced education from industrialized nations are having a hard time, mostly because of immigration or visa requirements. This is much is true in countries like Japan, the United States and the United Kingdom, whose immigration qualifications are very stringent. In some countries, the United States requires that a certain amount be placed in trust as a bond to ensure that visitors do return to their countries of origin. Educators in these developed countries recognize the desire of foreign students to avail themselves of superior standards in education. This is where the internet becomes a central tool in global, quality education. If you go online today, you will find plenty of colleges, universities and even Ivy League institutions offering online education ranging from certification, degree, post graduate and doctorate level courses. These online schools and universities are certainly convenient for those who cannot enter developed countries due to lack of qualifications for visa approval requirements. In the domestic front, these online schools become an alternative to the physically handicapped or mentally ill. For people with motor dysfunctions such as Parkinson’s disease, online education becomes a saving grace in their lives. It not only becomes convenient, but it also provides these people with a connection to the world right in their own home. Having the burden of education addressed by the internet is a convenience for the operators of care facilities as they can exclusively use these online schools for the education of their patients or as extra sources and materials used in their curriculum. With all of these in mind, new materials and tools for online instruction need to be developed. Foremost among these necessary tools is audio and video streaming through the internet. Audio-video streaming allows for two people to instantly communicate from distinctly separate locations. An instructor can use the internet to talk to his or her student face to face, so to speak. One thing our educators agree upon is that there is no better teacher than experience. In recent years, companies started manufacturing educational videos for use by infants. By using these video, infants are projected to start learning at an earlier age than before. Because of the audio-video experience, the attention given to these videos by an infant is considerably more than they would give to a children’s book. In being able to grab attention and interest, the video succeeds in educating the mind of the child. In the same manner, the use of audio and video in the education of older children, juveniles and adults is a more interesting and entertaining experience than a plain chemistry book. With a person actually able to see the animated structure of an atom, the curiosity of that individual is stimulated. When people become curious, their imagination becomes active and they strive to gather more information about the subject. This is where the importance of education through video lies. The content (assuming that it is interesting) grabs the viewers’ attention and stirs their curiosity, thereby stimulating a thirst for knowledge. As internet audio-video streaming technology improves, the more use they will become to online educational institutions. People who have knowledge of how to install and use these utilities are quickly becoming assets to many entrepreneurs, especially those businesses that are situated in the internet. The use of video streaming technology by websites has ballooned significantly. Even websites designed by amateurs and those people who have their own blog sites are starting to sprout videos. Video streaming is starting to grow. You might want to grow with it.
