Atricle Dump - Google Slavery...Old Habits Die Hard
I’ve been asked just about every question related to using the mail stream better, smarter and with a greater degree of success. I always lean back on three reactions a direct marketer must trigger, simply to gain opportunities: An action of “Yes, I’ll buy” or “I’m interested in more” or “Not now, but maybe later”… each are about hitting the key emotions to move the mail recipient to act. Yes, action! A.C.T.I
However, the search landscape changed dramatically early in 2004 and things have been very fluid and interesting since that time. Its not that Google has stumbled, or become ineffective as a search vehicle, its just that major players like Yahoo and Microsoft (via MSN) have decided to make a major thrust into the search business.

Most all businesses do customer service surveys to make sure all their customers are happy and sometimes they send them in the mail and sometimes you can fill them out at the counter and drop them in the mail. Customer surveys give important feedback to the business owner or corporation on ways they can improve their services and products.In the franchising industry it is equally important to make sure
The term "natural search" is to distinguish true searches, as opposed to paid advertisements which appear in the search results for many search engines these days. I guess you can't really fault the search engine companies from wanting to make some money (actually, BIG money) selling ad space, but the debate over the virtues of natural search versus paid advertising search is something that could take up a very large book and still have no clear resolution...much like arguments revolving around religion or politics.
Like most people that have been working as online home business entrepreneurs for a few years, I was strongly conditioned to the need to "feed the 800 pound gorilla" of the search engine world. Basically, "if Google didn't love you", it was very difficult to get any meaningful natural search traffic to your website. Since Google was actually the search engine that was serving up the results for most of the popular search portals, if Google didn't look kindly upon your site and rank you well, you would not be ranked well for most of the high traffic search sites on the Internet.

Dropship wholesale distributors are the lifeline of a reseller business. Reselling in competitive markets is like climbing a mountain. It can be exhilarating when you reach the top but exhausting and discouraging on the way up and many may drop out. Normally, the market is competitive because there is a demand for such products. Demand fuels supply and competition. However, since everyone knows that, many rese

One of the things that some sellers never seem to learn is that eBay buyers are knowledgeable. They know what they want to purchase. They also know how much they are willing to pay to make that purchase. Those sellers don’t seem to realize that to make money on eBay they must pay reasonable prices for the products that they sell.But what about the specialized niches where there are few competitors?

We hear a lot of talk about junk mail nowadays. Many people will tell you that they dump it straight in the trash. But why do you think so many organisations send out so called junk mail - because it works!I dump most of my junk mail just like everyone else, but every so often I'm attracted and respond to something that comes through the mail. Whatever it is, grabs my interest just at the right t

What is it, you might ask, that allows certain business, non-profit, government agency or association managers to believe that they run a high-quality public relations operation?In my judgement, they can believe that only if:1) They operate a strategic PR plan that leads directly to achieving their unit’s managerial objectives.2) They do something really significant about those

Having been firmly conditioned (since shortly after 1998) that Google was the "supreme deity of search engines", I took the highly publicized search entries of Yahoo and MSN with more than the proverbial "grain of salt".
Throughout a very recent two month period, one of my websites occupied the #5 position on Google, Yahoo, and MSN for a very popular and important (at least in my line of business) three word search term. This situation provided an opportunity to measure the current popularity of each of these three search providers.
If asked "before the fact", I would have guessed that Google would still be the overwhelming #1 search choice and that Yahoo and MSN would be distant #2 and #3 choices. Therefore, I was somewhat surprised by the results that were tabulated during this recent 60 day period.
For the period in question, the search popularity results were as follows:
Google: 34%
Yahoo: 31%
MSN: 20%
All others: 15%
Granted, the above results are for a single search term over a particular 60 day time period, but the results clearly show that Yahoo and MSN are already important players in the search business.
Webmasters that stick to the old ways and focus entirely on Google are missing out on a lot of search traffic these days if they are not also well ranked by Yahoo and MSN.
