How Your Web Hosting Provider Can Be A Good Friend Too

 



Majority of web hosting businesses are run by young professionals who have taken to web hosting due to their love for computers, networking and technology in general. Web hosts are always willing to help and love to share their knowledge and experience with clients and colleagues. However, most providers will be even more patronizing and helpful with people who are easy to work with and who understand the value of the free advice given. This article points out some cool ways in which your web hosting team could help you make the presence of your business and website felt across the internet.

Technology Advise

Many clients often contact us for our feedback and experience on web applications, eCommerce Shopping Systems and even computer hardware. Although most of the questions are related to the services we offer, many a times we like to go one step beyond and suggest some other systems or devices which may solve the needs of the customer. Almost all reputed hosting providers often share cost-saving and time-saving tips with their clients. Sometimes the savings maybe worth thousands of dollars, especially when the customer seems to be misled or is under some wrong notion for spending money.

Recommendations

By virtue of being in an online internet based business, a web hosting provider gets to work with numerous software developers, design agencies, SEO experts, content writers and website programmers. He / she has experienced different levels of service and different cost-saving measures, which may be a valuable learning experience. His / her recommendations are pretty reliable and highly valuable. It may save you a lot of time which maybe spent in hunting for the right designers or right service providers.

Passing on Discounts and Freebies

Hosting Providers often get discount coupon's, discount codes, free trials and even premium service packages from various companies trying to promote their products. They may often pass on these discounts to deserving customers and loyal patrons who may be looking out for similar products or services. They may also provide awesome discounts or premium pricing which may not be available to retails customers online. These offers could greatly reduce the burden on your pocket and help balance your budget.

Special Care and Attention

Sharing a geeky joke or an interesting bit of information with your hosting company will surely be reciprocated with special care and attention to your website. Giving feedback about a newsletter or suggesting a new feature in the service will always be well received. Compliments are music to our ears and constructive criticism is also highly appreciated. Being communicative and cordial with your service provider will surely help you to get special attention for your account.

Keeping an eye out for you

You may not always be alert or around when some suspicious activity is going on with your account. Having a rapport with your host will also help keep a check on suspicious password resets or name transfers. Alert hosts will always make it a point to reach out to you or try and communicate a change or service request from your side, which they feel may be out of place. When your account email address suddenly changes to club4hackerrootz @ gmail, they will definitely be interested in alerting you about it, beyond the message the automatic emails may send you. An alert service provider we know, helped save the domain name of a friend from being hijacked for ransom. The hijackers had entered the control panel with a compromised password and changed the WHOIS email address for the Registrant. When the automatic email alert reached the web host, they found this behavior suspicious, since just a couple of days prior, they had exchanged emails on renewing the domain name. They immediately informed the client and prevented the domain from being transferred out.

As they say "a friend (when you are) in need is a friend indeed" stands true for the hosting industry too.

Starting a Business - Do What You Love and Love What You Do

 




It is absolutely true that we do best at what we like to do.  In your career you are very fortunate if you have a job that you completely love. This might only really be possible if you decided early in your life what you want to 'be' and took the action to get the education or training to do what you wanted to do.  Starting a business is another chance.

Many people see a job as only a means to an end - it pays the bills. They tolerate it out of necessity only.  Within reason they are willing to put in the time and follow the directions to keep that position. Some will try to exceed expectations so that they might be promoted to a better-paying job some day.

If that doesn't happen in a reasonable period of time, and they have confidence and self-esteem, they will make a promotion happen even if they have to look outside of their present company to find a better job. Or if you are very creative and brave, you may develop your own business.

Long gone are the days when people got a job and stayed there for their entire career, slowly and sometimes painfully 'working themselves up the corporate ladder'. In fact in some cases when it comes to 'down sizing' or 'workforce reduction' in our economic climate for the past few decades, it is often those that are the higher paid or more experienced employees that are cut.

Unfortunately loving your job and doing your very best doesn't count for anything when a company has decided to make changes.  They do not see people - they see positions.  It is hard for us to understand how they can be so cold, but 'that's business'.  It's about the bottom line, making the most profit and not about doing what is right for the employees necessarily.

So if you are in a position to start a business of your own, you might as well do something that you love to do if possible;  or another way to look at it is to do what you have to do and love it.  Sometimes there has to be trade-offs - so you may be required to perform some tasks you are not crazy about.  To stay on top of this, you may have to enumerate the things you do love about working at home, and there is a lot to love. 

If you are starting out and have to work a day job and create 'spare' time to nurture a budding business, it will not be as easy to realize what is so preferable about working from your home unless you really like what you are doing; or at the very least might be doing something in an industry that you find attractive or necessary.

Think about how great doing your work at the time(s) when you feel like it is, and having the freedom to do something else whenever the opportunity arises (and do the work later of course); think about all the money you are saving on transportation to and from a job - add it up - the gas, parking, bridge tolls, etc; then realize how much you will not miss the stress of commuting in traffic and all that this can involve, for example (the freeway that is more like a parking lot during rush hour(s). 

Just these alone are major things to love about having your own business at home! In addition, you can enjoy the peaceful, quiet atmosphere and just the feeling of control you will have by taking charge of your own life; ...and it would even add more impetus to 'work it' if it is something that you are interested in - for example if you can create a business from a hobby or interest that you have. This would go a long way to encourage you to expend your energy in that direction.

There is a saying that is 'some people work to live and others live to work' - You have to really enjoy working to set yourself up with a day job and a part-time home business - of course the idea there is to someday quit the day job and to support yourself entirely from your own business at home!

7 Tips to Help Create Your Residual Income From Home

 



Creating a residual income from home is very intriguing.  If you decide to get involved in a home business to create a residual income, here are 7 tips to get you jump started. 

1.  Make sure your decision is a firm one.  You see, making a decision vs making a firm decision contrast sharply.  The reason I say this is because there are thousands, if not millions, that wish to make more money from home.  Making the money is the easy part.  Deciding to stick it out to make the money is the hard part.

Why?  Statistics show that over 95% of new home based businesses fail within the first 90-120 days.  Why is this failure rate so high?  Great question.  In my opinion, the initial decision to get involved was not a firm decision.  That means you proceed forward no matter what. There will be obstacles, challenges, setbacks, etc. along the way.  But if you have a firm 'no matter what' mindset, you are on your way.

2.  Get the support of your loved ones.  Running a home based business is hard work.  Just like any other business, you must have the support of your spouse, partner, family, loved one, or the person that is closest to you and your life.  Without their support and the 'no matter what' attitude from step 1 above, you will fall into the 95% that quit, fail, or just move on to something easier.

3.  Set aside a home work space.  Setting up your home work environment is crucial.  It is important that your treat your work from home office area as your typical 9 to 5 office.  When you are in your work from home office you are there to work.  You are there to get things done.  You are there to further your business.  Removing distractions can be challenging when you work from home.  Try to limit them as much as possible.

4.  Manage your time.  It is very easy to become consumed with your laptop or your PC when working from home.  There is tons of information and education for an online marketer or work from home expert to process.  Take it day by day and be sure to balance your time for family, recreation, etc.  When you are balanced you are fresh.  Your business should be considered a marathon and not a sprint.

5.  Find a mentor.  Having a mentor is very important when working from home.  Hopefully, your mentor is a residual income expert and very successful.  After all, to be the best you need to learn from the best.  A mentor is someone that can help you when you need it.  A mentor is someone you respect.  A mentor is someone that has already accomplished something you wish to accomplish.  There are great mentors available online today.  Take the time a find yours.

6.  Be professional.  Regardless of  your business, make sure you carry yourself as a professional.  What is a professional?  Someone that respects others, treats his home business like any other business, and tries to help others along the way. 

7.  Automate your business as much as possible.  Remember that you are just one person.  But, having the automated marketing tools that work for you are vital.  The proper marketing tools can replace some of the human factor.  And, if setup properly are easy to manage (unlike some employees). 

Taking into consideration these 7 tips can help you to reach your residual income goal sooner when working from home.

3 Easy Ways To Bring In Website Visitors For Free

 





Free website traffic is not actually free in the sense that you have done nothing for it. Although you have not paid any money to anyone, the website traffic will have cost you an element of time and effort to get results. Here are 3 easy ways to increase website traffic without it costing you any money.


Search Engine Traffic.

The websites that continuously increase their website traffic are the ones that regularly produce high quality content. Search engines give preference to websites that are regularly updated with new content. The organic, or natural, search results which are listed on the search engines results show up because of their relevance to the search terms to your online business. If you focus your attention on creating high quality content it will improve your results in the search engines.

Partnering With Websites That Are Related To Yours.

Another great way to get website traffic free is to partner with other websites in your marketplace. Let's say your website is about golf. You could offer to write free content for websites that provide golf equipment and accessories . All you ask for in return is a link back to your website.

Next, you might partner with other golf experts and create a joint video series on how to improve your game. Or you could even do a video series where you interview experts on various elements of the game, like putting, pitching or driving.

You could create a free ebook on how to 'How To Putt Like A Pro' that you can give to other golf websites to give away for free. Obviously, the ebook will have your name on it, with a link back to your website.

Writing A Blogg.

A blog is a website or web page where you write information, facts or opinions on a regular basis for a specific target audience. You can build an online audience by publishing information regularly for people who are interested in what you have to say. If you write an interesting blog it will help to generate free website traffic because readers will keep coming back to the blog to read updates. They will also pass the information onto to their friends and colleagues in the industry.

Email Marketing - 7 Magic Power Words

 




Do you have an amazing product  but having trouble getting your emails opened?  Are you having trouble getting other like-minded online marketers engaged in your offer?  It can be frustrating at times.  Every online marketer experiences this at one time or another.  As we know, online marketing is a copy-cat world.  That one idea can take you places you have never dreamed of.


To help you with getting your emails opened try these 7 magic power words in your subject lines.  They helped me increase my email open-rate by over 20%.  As a result, your list should grow much more rapidly.

7 Magic Power Words

1.  Because.  This is a very powerful word.  Why?  Because we all want to know why.  If you know the why, you can figure out the how.  For example, this email subject line works well for me, "Because your education is priceless, this system....".  Another example that works well is, "Because it saves valuable time, this program...".  Are you starting to get the picture now?  The word "Because" creates a mental image and answers a question to a problem.  This word is very intriguing. 

2.  Now.  This is one of my favorites.  The word 'Now' is an action word.  After all, if your potential subscriber does nothing and takes no action, your efforts are lost.  I come from a sales background, and the word 'Now' creates that sense of urgency.  Examples to use in your email marketing include, "Now, for a limited time, this free report....".  Another example I like to use is, "For NOW, this system  is available for...".

3.  Imagine.  When you use the word 'Imagine' in your subject lines a very powerful mind technique goes to work.  This mind technique was taught to me by Jim Lutes, Quanta co-founder, and world renown personal development expert.  The word imagine takes the reader inside themselves and  paints a mental picture.  After all, sales is about painting pictures.  For example, "Imagine yourself sitting on the beach and your product is being opened all around the world".  Another example I like to use is, "Imagine receiving $97 payments over and over while you  sleep".  The word 'imagine' is very powerful.

4.  Please.  The word 'please' shows respect.  When you were growing up, what was the one word magic your mother always made you say? That's right, PLEASE.  For example, "Please take the time to read this free report, it will....".  Another example I use is "When your email rates increase, please leave a comment....".  The word please is very helpful in your open-rates.

5.  Thank you.  What usually happens when you open the door for an elder or a lady?  They generally say thank you.  What usually happens when you help another individual achieve an outcome?  They generally say thank you.  If you help another online marketer reach another step toward their desired outcome they will thank you.  For example, I use this subject line, "You wallet will thank you for reading this free report".  Another common example is, "Thank you for subscribing...".

6.  A Person's Name (at end of subject line).  Everyone likes to be called by their first name.  Even in your email autoresponder greeting, always use first name(i.e. - Hi Chris).  Subject line examples  include, "Imagine sitting on the beach Chris".  Or "Did you get your free report Chris?".  Everyone likes to be called by name.  Use first names at the end of your subject line for a higher open-rate.

7.  Use Control Words.  Using control words such as, "You have to decide now...".  Or You're in control here, not me...".  Or, to combine 3 magic power words in one subject line, "You have to decide NOW, CHRIS".  You have used control words combined with the word now, combined with the person's name at the end of the subject  line.  3 in 1 should get'er done. 

Start experimenting using these 7 magic power words and watch your open-rates increase.

Where Do You Begin With Online Business Ideas?

 

When you know that the internet is the place the generate an income but you're still looking for online business ideas what can you do? It's not a secret that more and more people are buying products and services online. But some budding entrepreneurs who want to tap into this market just don't know where or how to start an online business.

Finding The Best Online Business Ideas For You.

When you're looking for online business ideas, start with what subjects you know something about or that you are interested in. Let's say, for example, that you like playing golf. A friend, who has always wanted to play but never has, asks if you will show him how to play. You may not be an expert, but you do know more about the techniques, rules and etiquette of golf than he or she does. You explain all you know about golf and help your friend as much as you can. You then recommend your friend to a golf pro or teacher who helped you to improve your game.

This is the same principle when you start an online business. The only difference is that is is all done via the internet and when you recommend a product or service, you get paid a commission when somebody buys it. This business model is called affiliate marketing.

Where To Look For Internet Business Ideas.

There are a whole variety of affiliate marketing programs that are designed to help you start an online business. They have all the resources you need to advertise, market and sell a product or service on the internet. In some cases, you do not even need to have your own website. Although, once you do start making sales, it will help your online business journey if you do have one.

Anything you could possibly think about is available to sell through affiliate programs, from vitamins to luggage, from travel tickets to self help courses. Once you know what you want to sell and who you want to sell it to, you can investigate the affiliate programs on Amazon, ClickBank or JVZoo to find products or services that will suit you. You can then promote these using free or paid customer traffic strategies.

You Do Not  Have To Be An Expert.

Don't be concerned that you're not an expert in your field when you start an online business. Some of the most successful websites were started by entrepreneurs who kept a track of their business right from the very beginning. Sometimes when trying to learn from an expert you may not get the direct contact with that person that you want a they are usually very busy. Where as when you learn from someone who is a few steps ahead of you, they will be able to relate to your problems and you will probably be able to speak directly to them.

People learn and buy from different websites. By developing your own style and character within your niche it will help you to stand out and attract customers.
