Hey everybody!

If you use portable flash drives (thumb drives) to move files from different computers, for example, from your desktop to your laptop or from your home computer to your office computer or if you share files with family and friends…I found a service called Dropbox.

It’s a cloud-based service that will give you 2GB of storage at no cost.

Here’s why I like it…

DropBox has a driver you install that makes it look like a regular file folder on each computer…all the computers you have would have this folder…and they would be all linked and in sync with each other.

The driver is available for Windows, OS X, and even Linux systems.

The DropBox driver makes the files appear locally to each computer.

And again it keeps them constantly in sync.

If you have a team of people who are geographically distributed, it’s as if you’re all sharing the same virtual drive.

DropBox also maintains version histories of files. So if someone accidentally overwrites a file, you can get it back.

DropBox lets you access your files from anywhere in the world through a web browser.

There are some other services like this, but I find that DropBox is a lot easier to use, given it’s installable drivers, automatic syncing, and version histories.

Now I only use my thumb drives for backup or if I have REALLY BIG files.

You have to put in quite a bit of time and effort to start and develop an online business. If you are trying to build your online business, you need good quality website traffic more than anything else. Having a profitable online business is not possible without a steady stream of targeted visitors. You can read all kinds of e-books and take many courses about internet marketing, but you have to decide on a certain method to start with. To get clear, follow one particular technique and follow through with it until you get results. As you perfect this method and start getting results, you can add new tactics to your arsenal. This article will explore the benefits of article marketing, which is a good strategy to begin with for a number of reasons.

Article marketing gives you the ability to inform your readers about your products so that they are more likely to buy them. People on the internet are tired of being sold things, but they are open to recommendations. Articles give people a chance to find out about what you are offering and then make a choice about whether or not to buy it. You can, for example, write an article with some general information about the topic and then mention your specific product and include a link to your website. Your visitors can then absorb the information and feel that they are still free to act as they want. It’s always important to focus on pre-selling before you actually sell because it tends to warm up the prospect.

Another advantage with article marketing is that it can help you build a solid email list very quickly.

Your articles can be written to target a particular niche and entice them to subscribe to your ezine or newsletter. You can use the resource box at the foot of your article to add a link that points directly to your opt-in page. Add an offer of a free ebook or report for people who subscribe so readers are even more tempted to click through to your sign-up page. You can then send out updates to your subscribers that let them know about any products you’re promoting.

You can also make money off of affiliate products with article marketing. Article marketing effectively brings your targeted audience to your site where you’ll then earn money from every product you sell. This is what we in the business term “Bum Marketing” whereby you create many articles using certain keywords and then you put them on the various directories. Article marketing is great for making affiliate sales as people are already searching for what you’re offering and you just answered their problem. If you can do this while also making your articles optimized for the search engines, you’ll get much more traffic and make more money.

In essence, you can make lots of money article marketing but it’s how you conduct your practice that makes the difference. Most people don’t succeed with article marketing and that’s because they don’t do the required research. Do not ignore proper research of the keywords and content if you ever hope to succeed.

There are countless online marketers that are desperately trying to establish their own list of email addresses and garnish a group of dedicated subscribers who also have confidence in their knowledge and business. Yet, the vast majority of these marketers get drug into the plethora of “get rich quick” ideas, leaveing no time or energy to devote to their list building. Without focus, they mistakenly become entangled in ideas and ventures that can easily be avoided, costing them both profits and time. If you are aware of the basic errors to avoid, the process of list building is actually rather straight forward. List building can be called as the heart of your online business, and can prove to be the best tool to generate income on the long run. To easily avoid these simple mistakes and build this valuable list, a review of errors to avoid will be covered here. In cases where you would definitely like a complete strategy for email list building check out my Epic Traffic Systems Bonus offer.

It seems that many marketers have trouble with the same question regarding an acceptable frequency of mailing to their email list. A common error many newbies make is that they either email too much, or not enough. Some believe one per day is reasonable, while others say you don’t want to send any more often that weekly. Finding that “happy medium” is the key. Sending too many emails will irritate people and they will delete you, or mark you as spam. Email them too little, and they will likely not even remember who you are. So the time frame depends on what you’re sending them. Emails with info that is helpful to people is far less likely to offend, bother, or irritate them, and can be sent more frequently. Before long, they may even rely on you as their ONLY source for this information. Alternatively, if you only contact them one time per month, it is possible that they will simply forget about you. You’ll do well to remember that you should always have a reasonable pace for sending emails. Although people may be very interested, once-a-day emails can still get monotonous. Limiting your emails to about two or three per week is generally best.

Another common mistake budding internet marketers make is sending emails promoting their business of list to people who aren’t even subscribed to that list. Such marketing techniques may get you reported as spam and usually anger people; there is no justifiable reason to employ this technique.

Be painstakingly obvious when presenting your identity and contact information in your promotional emails. No purpose is served by anonymous marketing emails, which are usually deleted without being read. A good promotional email contains all your relevant company information including the address, phone number, product information, etc. Apart from this, you need to put in all efforts to make sure that your email doesn’t look like spam. For your subject line, make sure to avoid the use of words that may flag your email as spam or other unwanted correspondence. In the event you might like to step-up  targeted visitors to your online websites and accelerate your web based income source  fairly quickly by using email list building  along with a  self contained visitors  technique learn precisely what Keith Baxter and Jon Shugart and Joey Smith tend to be  explaining in my Epic Traffic Systems review.

So now you should be able to clearly see that creating an effective email list may involve some real work on your part. You’ll find that it becomes much easier as you discover the science behind it. Remember to avoid the above mistakes and continue to gain understanding and knowledge regarding list building and you will maintain a competitive edge.

Wordpress Blog, On Complete Autopilot!”

Such as:

Need to get your site indexed quickly or just want to add a few links?  This is the technique I use when I start a new site.

It’s very simple!

Take each of the following links and replace YOURDOMAIN.com with the domain name of your website.

http://www.statbrain.com/www.yourdomain.com
http://www.websiteoutlook.com/www.yourdomain.com
http://builtwith.com/?yourdomain.com
http://snapshot.compete.com/yourdomain.com
http://www.aboutus.org/yourdomain.com
http://www.quantcast.com/yourdomain.com
http://www.cubestat.com/www.yourdomain.com
http://whois.tools4noobs.com/info/yourdomain.com
http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/yourdomain.com
http://www.alexa.com/data/details/?url=yourdomain.com
http://www.siteadvisor.cn/sites/yourdomain.com/summary/
http://whois.domaintools.com/yourdomain.com
http://www.aboutdomain.org/backlinks/yourdomain.com/
http://www.whoisya.com/yourdomain.com
http://www.who.is/whois-com/yourdomain.com
http://www.robtex.com/dns/yourdomain.com.html
http://www.zimbio.com/search?q=yourdomain.com&btnG=Search
http://whois.ws/whois-info/ip-address/yourdomain.com/
http://whoisx.co.uk/yourdomain.com
http://searchanalytics.compete.com/site_referrals/yourdomain.com

Now, after replacing  YOURDOMAIN.com with your site name,  go visit each URL.

Now,  the next thing you need to do is submit each link with your domain in the URL to several social bookmarking websites (use the websites listed in the next paragraph).  By doing this you will get the URLs quickly indexed and in turn Google will see a one-way back link to your site.  Repeat this for all the above URLs.

A couple of services that will automate this process is http://www.onlywire.com and www.socialmarker.com.  Hint: When submitting using these sites, “Title” is the keyword you want your page to rank for. “Link” is obvious.  “Text” should describe the contents of the page using the keyword from “Title”.  “Tags” should be the keyword and several variations.

Next, submit all the URLs to several of the top RSS Aggregators.  This is easy to do using this free tool: http://www.html2rss.com.
This tool will convert your entire list of URLs to one single RSS Feed. Then simply submit the link generated by the www.html2rss.com site to several of the top RSS Aggregators. You can also do this with any social bookmarking submission site’s links.

Remember…
Do Your Best …And Forget The Rest!

I’m sure you’ve been told or have read over and over again that you do not need a website of your own.  In reality, you would be much better off if you have one.  The advantages of having your own website may not be apparent right now, but later on as time goes by it will become very clear.  Everything from blogging, to building a mailing list or selling products of your own or as an affiliate will be a whole lot simpler if you have your own domain and Web hosting.

Hostgator.com is probably the best-known host provider.  They can provide a hosting account for just dollars per month.  When you’re just starting out you can choose any level of service you wish, but I recommend anything above the basic service level.  I personally use Bluehost.com and have for many years.  Their service and prices are simular to be Hostgator.com.

Some other well-known names such as GoDaddy.com also offer hosting but they are better known for registering domain names.  For hosting, I would always recommend Hostgator.com or Bluehost.com.  Most Internet Marketers use them more than any other host providers.  Come up with a unique domain name for your site before signing up.  To take a long-term approach the domain name should be fairly broad in scope in case you shift focus.  For example, if you name your site BestGolf.com, and then decide to switch and head in a different direction, for example, gardening or blogging as your niche, then you will need a new domain name.  So instead, try a more generic name, for example GreatDigitalProducts.com or something like that.  You should only use .com or .net but not .me or .org.  Most people will assume that your site is .com.  Most of the time I try to get .com myself.  If you purchase your domain from GoDaddy.com they will have recommendations if the domain name you are trying to register is already taken.  I usually use GoDaddy.com in purchasing a domain name but Namedcheap.com is also a good choice.  Keep in mind you should never have to pay more than $10 annually to register and keep a domain name.
