The Top 3 Deadly Mistakes To Avoid When Emailing Your List

By Henry Zeng

When you decide to have an email list, it is not just a matter of sending your subscribers your promotional materials or catalogs. There are so many things to consider in avoiding many complications. While there are so many ways you can make people subscribe to your list, there are also some things you must do to avoid subscribers from wanting to unsubscribe from your list.

It is important that you keep your list clean and manageable. Arrange it by using the many tools and technologies available for your email list. Do not worry; your investment in this marketing strategy is well worth it with all the coverage you will get which will likely be converted into sales then to profit. As a tip, here are top 3 deadly mistakes to avoid when emailing your list.

1) Not take notice of your unsuccessful sends. These are the e-mails that bounce. Bounced emails, also known as undeliverable emails, are those emails that, for whatever reason, were not successfully received by the intended subscriber.

There are bounces that happen or occur due to user unknown, closed mailboxes, services unavailable. There are those bounce messages that are simply undeliverable ever. Some other reasons for this can be an invalid email address, a misspelled email address, or an email address that was abandoned and erased already.

Manage your list by putting markings on those that bounce. Erase an email account from your opt-in list so that you have an accurate statistics as to how many subscribers are actually receiving your mail.

2) Not provide an unsubscribe feature. When someone in your list files a request to be unsubscribed, always take that request seriously. If you don't take them off your list and keep sending them your emails, you are now sending them spam.

It will ruin you and your business when you are reported as a spammer. You can be reported to the authorities and maybe blacklisted by many internet service providers. You will lose your list in this way and many more in potential subscribers.

3) Provide pornographic or shocking and disturbing content in your newsletters. It is sometimes hard to decipher the age of the recipient and you may get a lot of complaints. Stick to the nature of your site and business.

Remember these tips so that you can have a healthy relationship with your subscribers as well as be kept within the boundaries of what is allowed in sending mails to an email list. - 15790

Secret Exposed: How the Google Search Engine Really Works

By Henry Zeng

While we don't often think about - or care - how Google works, it is very very important for anyone who is using SEO, or natural search marketing for their business to understand the basic principles that drive the Google search engine.

There are three main parts to Google: Googlebot, The Indexer, and the Query Processor. Each of these three parts is crucial to online businesses, believe it or not. Let's take a deep look at each of these Google elements to see how they work.

Googlebot is the search engine spider that comes to your website and spiders your pages. It isn't an actual spider, of course.

It actually works more like a web browser by calling a server, requesting pages, and downloading them - just as you do when you open your web browser, type in an URL, and the page loads.

Googlebot, anyway, is run by numerous computers and performs this task much faster than one user could on their home or work personal computer. Googlebot also doesn't know whether a website exists or not until a URL is put into their Add URL form, or they find a link points to that website on another web page.

When Googlebot comes to a page, they take all the links from that page, and put them in a queue for crawling, and repeat this process over and over again. Once Googlebot has found a link, and downloaded the page, it hands that page off to the Indexer.

The Indexer stores the pages in Google's Index Database. The Index then sorts all of the pages in its database, alphabetically, by looking at all of the keywords on the pages. The Indexer does not pay any attention to what Google calls stop words, such as is, on, or, why, how, etc. It just pays attention to more important keyword type words.

The Indexer, after Indexing pages, waits for the Google Query Processor to ask it for a list of documents. A keyword is given to the Query Processor, which in turn asks the Indexer for a list of stored websites contain that keyword.

The Indexer then supplies the Query processor with a list of the documents, and the Query processor presents that to the user that requested the keyword.

As you can see, each element is important to the others. It all starts with the Googlebot finding your webpage link on another page, or by you going to Google and using the Add form to list your website. - 15790

One of the benefits of affiliate marketing is that you do not need to have your own product to start to make money online. It is as easy as promoting others products while getting a percentage of the sales, defined as affiliate commission.

The first step is to select the products niche and which products you'd like to promote. Consequently, you have to join the affiliate programs -corresponding to your products- which are always free to join. Then, you'll get an affiliate link that must be placed at your website in order to receive your commissions when your website visitor purchased the product through your link.

You need 4 Tactics to Master any Affiliate Marketing Program:

1. Select your affiliate products from your hobbies.

I am pretty sure that you agree with me that working on something interesting for you is really a good idea. Therefore, look around and think what you like to do. For example, if horse-back riding is your hobby, why you don't promote E-Books about "how to train your horse"?

2. Further, check the common affiliate marketing reviews to check what others say about these products.

Check every affiliate handbook and you'll see that they always mention something about credibility. It is simply the way to succeed online. In other words, offer products that you're pretty sure that they are of a high value to your customers. The bottom line here is to try the product first!

3. Check how many other affiliates promote the same product.

If the product is profitable and of a great use for your customers but promoted by other thousands of affiliates, then it would be hard to make money with this affiliate program. Therefore, your duty now is to check how easy or hard your competition is.

4. Drive traffic and only targeted traffic to your website.

Traffic, Traffic, and Traffic is the keyword to your affiliate success. Traffic is simply your source of income. Therefore, to master your affiliate program you have to get fair knowledge about internet marketing. My personal tip for you is to start using article marketing as it is easy and free; yet very effective. - 15790

In a global economy the import-export business is the way to go

By Neil the Import Export Guy

If you are looking for a challenging career field, one that will let you learn new things every day, one which not many people know about, then you are looking at the import-export business. Is this career field as glamorous and exciting as it sounds? You better believe it! Is there another career field that will let you fly off to another country, learn about the customs, and look for particular items in far off places? The import-export business can be challenging, rewarding both financially and personally, but there are many risk factors as well.

Although you probably don't know this, many people work in the import-export trade in one way or another, but there are cultural factors, weather factors, and ecological factors that you have in this business, which you don't in any other type.

Of course, how well you do, will also depend on what the product you are selling is , who you are dealing with, and what your financial capabilities in the country you trade with are.

Your Marketing Strategies

Selling your product here depends on many other factors, that don't apply to companies that deal with national marketing strategies, and you depend on a nation's buying abilities.

Government Regulations

Importers-exporters have to deal with a country's export trade laws, so you need to know what these are, and whether your product can meet those requirements or not. Find out about these laws at the federal trade commission. Many countries include websites where you can find out most of this stuff.

The same holds true for the import policies of the country you are importing to. These will also differ from country to country and will depend on agricultural and product regulations. These requirements are often online or at the country's trade commission offices. These requirements are not generally difficult to meet, and often it is just the filling out of a form, and paying importation fees that is needed.

Transportation

If you are in the import-export business then you will also have to learn about transportation. You will need to know which is the fastest, but most expensive form of transportation, and which is the slowest, but most economical. Some times you will even have to be a little creative in the way you get a product to a client. You may have to use transportation methods not generally used, but still very effective.

Import-export is just like any other business, just a little more exciting, and you need to be a little more communicative (that may include using hand and sign language) and just being a little more creative in every way possible. It is a pretty exciting field! - 15790
