Need Help with RSS Feeds?

RSS Means... "Really Simple Syndication"

I recommend a great resource website called www.Semiologic.com this site has easy to understand information if you need help with RSS Feeds!

So why You should care about feeds?
The reasons you should care about feeds reportedly are:

— You want to be notified of updates from the many web sites that you read without visiting them one by one.

— You prefer to read your favorite web sites from one convenient location without any interface clutter.

In practice, the reasons you should and do care about feeds are:

— You want to be notified of updates from the many web sites that you don't trust enough to reveal them your email address.

— You want to reorganize the raw information that is available for syndication as you see fit.

Have You SEEN The New AOL Television Website?

New AOL Television Site Launches...

Remember these shows: 'Welcome Back, Kotter,' 'Growing Pains,' 'Wonder Woman,' 'La Femme Nikita,' 'Alice,' 'Kung Fu,' 'Babylon 5' and many more...

AOL and Warner Bros. have teamed up In2TV is the first broadband TV network and it's got the largest collection of free TV shows anywhere on the Web. Not just highlights or listings, but full-length TV episodes with a range of choices and loads of interactive features. Online. Anytime. Always free.

Well I must admit AOL, Warner Bros and In2TV has done something totally cool here. Rumor has it the first day of launch the site was swamped with TONS and TONS new lookers and TV show lovers!

I think the Web TV Traffic has only just begun...

In my opinion this is just the tip of the iceberg for Internet TV and Video. "The World is ready for it now, really wants it, lots of it!!" More of us have grown with the technology and now have the knowledge and means to really enjoy it and appreciate the convenience of having it.

I recommend you ALL take a look at the new site and enjoy those old TV shows you watched as a kid, teenager, or perhaps for many of you young people this will be the first time you get to see what your parents watched before you were even on planet Earth, right from your Computer or iPod!

Testing Keyword Phrases For Age Demographics

The Google Ageshare Calculator...

The Google Ageshare Calculator shows you what age group mentions any given keyword or phrase the most, according to Google search results. For example, the brand name "Ford Taurus" goes to the 30-year-old crowd, while "Jeep Grand Cherokee" belongs to the 44-year-old segment. The phrase "internet marketing" is heavily weighted to those 40 to 46 years old, while "online marketing" skews more to the 30 to 32-year-old crowd. How is this calculated? We're not quite sure, but there is a lengthy explanation of the algorithms and logic used to generate the calculations should you wish to explore further. This tool is brought to you by the people at Google Blogoscoped, an unofficial, highly regarded blog on search engines and Google. (Not affiliated with Google™)

Quadruple Your Visitor Viewing Time!

This article was written by my Colleague Bob Speyer, Co-Founder/President of Web Success Team LLC.

In this article Bob shares 10 “Web-niques” to Quadruple Visitor Viewing Time! Read on...

Field of Dreams
By now you probably have read numerous articles about driving traffic to your web site by implementing some proven techniques, such as SEO (Search Engine Optimization), Keyword Marketing, Google AdSense, Pay Per Click, among others. But how many articles or techniques do you read on “How to keep visitors from leaving a website?” Chances are very few.

The adage, “If You Build It, They Will Come” may work for the movie “Field of Dreams,” but not necessarily in the real Web World. Like in the movie, there has to be a raison d’etre — a reason to keep watching, a baited hook. If you remember, the film featured baseball greats of yesteryear that tapped into the consciousness of the fan, giving people something of value, a need fulfilled or just plain curiosity. They will watch the game/movie transfixed for hours. Read more...

Did You Shop Online This Christmas? I Did!

I did most of my shopping Online this Holiday Season and found it to be a very pleasant experience, so far so good!

I am reading about how many of us bought our Christmas gifts online this year and I am not surprised at all...

There are so many benefits of doing your shopping online, verses offline, here are 5 benefits that I personally experienced:

1. Saved Gas - not having to drive all over to find the perfect gifts.
2. No Crowded Malls or Long Lines - more fun to shop without the crowds!
3. Huge Selections - biggest selection in the world without leaving your home.
4. Great Prices - I found that I actually saved money by shopping online.
5. Less Stress - was able to shop 24/7 on my own schedule, very convenient I did not feel the stress of trying to find the time to get all my gifts in a small time frame!

I hope you had as good of an experience as I did shopping online this year! I will follow up after Christmas with the final results of my gifts being delivered timely!

So far everything has been delivered on time, even early!

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to all!

14 Days Until Christmas, Did You Thank Your Customers?

Your Customers are the Most Important Part of Your Business this Time of Year and Always...

You must thank your customers for buying from you throughout the year and send them Holiday and New Year Wishes! Tell them how much their business means to you.

Take advantage of this time of year to connect with your customers without asking for a sale, but ONLY just to say Thank You!

This will make your customers very happy :) whether they have bought from you one time or 12 times. It will set the pace for the coming year as you launch new products and services to these same people, and market to them throughout the New Year to come for returning customer sales.

Your Customers Like to Feel Special and Remembered...
Customer relations is the key to a good and successful ongoing business!

Happy Holidays To All!
