   Top 5 Tips To A Successful Marketing Strategy
   Have you found marketing your own business to be a challenge? Maybe you don’t care to go out and network because you are not comfortable in large groups, have difficulty putting into words your thoughts and knowledge, or find speaking in front of a group intimidating. Maybe because of this, you feel there are no other options for marketing and therefore have never put into motion a plan. Or, like me, are you great with coming up with a plan and ideas for a client, but then fall short and out of time for yourself?Crucial to a successful business is having a marketing strategy and setting aside the time to implement it. But, it doesn’t have to be a lot of time. Here are 5 keys in establishing your marketing
   I often get asked what the secret is to making money with Google's AdSense program. This often comes from people who are dreaming of setting up websites chock full of high-paying keywords for particular niche subjects and then sitting back and watching the money roll in. "What's the magic formula?" they ask me. If they're non-technical, I point them straight to my first AdSense book, Make Easy Money with Google, and assure them that they'll learn everything they need from it. They may think it's hard, but it's not.

   But what about the technical people? By this I mean the people who've already set up a blog or website, who have registered domain names, who are comfortable with basic Internet terminology and concepts. What is the "AdSense formula"?

   The only AdSense formula that you need to know is this:

   earnings = number of clicks * average price per click

   This is what I call the Fundamental AdSense Formula because you can derive almost every AdSense "secret" directly or indirectly from this formula. Do you want to earn more with AdSense? You have two ways of doing it:

   • Increase the number of clicks, and/or
   • Increase the average price per click

   Your earnings will only go up if you do one or the other, and ideally both. It's an obvious formula, yes, but it's amazing how many people lose sight of it in their quest for increased AdSense earnings.

   Increasing the Number of AdSense Clicks

   Increasing the number of times the ads on your site or blog are clicked is the most obvious strategy. There are two general strategies you can follow:

   • Increase the traffic to the site, and/or
   • Adjust the ads to make them more "clickable"

      Creative Online Marketing-Part VIII
      Ask Your Customers – It may sound super simple, but if you just ask your customers what they want and then give it to them, you’ll be ahead of your competitors. For example, there’s a local dentist who advertises on the radio that he offers a little pill that will put patients to sleep. While they snooze, he fixes years of neglect and damage in one visit. Without asking his customers, he may not have come up with this tremendous USP.Do Research to Find Out What They Want – Again, this seems like a simplistic idea, but you’d be surprised how often it’s overlooked. For instance, that same dentist I just mentioned above also advertises that nobody in his office will ever lecture you about avoiding visits to a den

         Online E-Commerce; Who Can You Trust on the Internet
         Much of the online interaction on Blogs, Bulletin Boards and virtual neighbor networking groups is done with at least some anonymity and in watching these communications one has to wonder if anyone is truly who they say. In the case with all the Internet transactions, business dealings and communications these days who can you really trust? We are told we need to be careful with Identity Theft when doing business online or with online e-commerce, but who tells us this?We are told by agencies like the FBI and FTC; Federal Trade Commission. Both agencies are not without some trust issues in themselves. For instance the FBI has sold secrets to Chinese Sex Spies and the lady was not even that good looking. The FBI

               Managing Versus Doing - Getting the Balance Right
               One of the biggest challenges facing those taking on a management or supervisory role is finding the time to manage. It can sometimes feel like that you have 100% of your time allocated to doing tasks and the only way to fit in the management part of the job is to do lots of unpaid extra hours. So how can you start to address this dilemma?Be clear on what is expected of youAs a new manager you need to get absolute clarity on what is expected of you and how your performance in the job will be measured. The last thing you want is to get to your appraisal and find out that you have been aiming for the wrong target.Set aside time for managingIf you do a 40 hour week and you know that manage

The best way to get traffic is to provide useful, unique content and to rank highly in search engine rankings for keywords related to that content. In other words, use standard search engine optimization techniques. DO NOT "buy" traffic or use "link farms" or other dubious techniques. Other tips for getting traffic:

               1. Publish articles, even free ones, with links back to your site.
               2. Include a link to your site in the signature at the bottom of your emails or in any forum postings you make (if the forum allows it).
               3. Participate in forums/groups related to the content of your site or blog. The key is to participate, not lurk, and don't just post messages promoting your site.
               4. Add comments (relevant ones only, please) to other blogs, you can usually link back to yours. (This won't help your search engine rankings, but it may allow others who are reading those comments to find your own site.)
               5. Syndicate your content (trivial if you have a blog) and make sure that the content is registered with syndication aggregators.
               6. List your site in relevant directories.

               Adjusting the ads is something you can do almost immediately:

               1. Position the ads on the page in order to make them more noticeable. Google even publishes a helpful heat map for AdSense publishers.
               2. Choose the best AdSense ad format that works for your site.
               3. Change the ad colors either to make the ads blend in with your site or to make them stand out. Again, it varies depending on the site.

               Whatever you do, DO NOT ENTICE VISITORS TO CLICK THE ADS. Google is very strict about this, see the AdSense program policies for the details.

               Increasing the Average AdSense Price Per Click

               Increasing the average price per click you receive from AdSense is the other strategy for increasing your overall AdSense earnings. You can do this by:
