There is a new tool available that promise to do wonders for your traffic. It’s called Traffic TurboCharger. This piece of equipment doesn’t brake any search engine rules and it actually generates beautiful pages visitors would like to see.
I took this tool for a test drive, and it’s true, you can instantly build a content rich website in a matter of minutes.
It follows a few simple steps:
Step One: Select the keywords on which you want your site to be based, or let the tool generate keywords based on actual phrases that search engine users have search for.
Step Two: Enter your affiliate ID’s for the programs that you want to earn money from on your site and the URLs for the RSS feeds related to your keywords.
Step Three: Enter your website information, URL, title and description.

to non US viewers thus increasing your revenue)
The five income streams they brag about are Searchfeed, RevenuePilot, XML Revenue, Amazon and Google Adsense.
Main difference with this software compared to another web page creator like Directory Generator, is that you don’t need to buy hover ad code or RSS Equalizer code. It also creates better looking web pages for your visitors, unlike Directory Generator.
The software incorporates a technology called RSS or Rich Site Syndication that, if used well, can literally turn your website into a traffic-grabbing, cash-generating monster.
I consider this to be a great piece of software that’s easy for a newbie to work with. This Next Generation SEO Tool makes generating thousands of constantly updating web pages a piece of cake. http://trafficturbocharger.blogspot.com/

So, you have a great product or service, yet your web site is not getting the high rankings and traffic you desire from the top search engines like Google and MSN Search.
You’re not alone. This scenario is playing out all across the web, yet there is a simple solution to the problem. Publicity. Publicity is the art of gaining exposure for your web site, product, or service with press releases, articles, and other promotional methods.
A consistent publicity campaign can get you links from some of the best web sites on the Net. These links provide your web site with “Link Popularity” and the Google PageRank numbers you need for high search engine ranking and traffic. Plus, the links themselves can bring you a significant about of targeted traffic.
The Top 5 Tips for Getting Publicity (and Links)
Here are a few of my tips for getting publicity and links on the web sites, AND getting news stories and articles in the newspapers, magazines and Internet radio show sites.
TIP #1: Be Consistent - Stick With It For The Long-Haul
For maximum results, use public relations as a long-term awareness and link-building campaign. This will allow your messages to be delivered to the appropriate audience and generate visibility, traffic and sales for you.
The biggest mistake I see businesses making with publicity, is they’re not consistent at all, only sticking with it for 1, 2, or 3 months. It pays to be consistent is because sometimes you’ll send out a press release and get no response back, no publicity, nothing… In fact, this is when most people quit, when they should realize that publicity is a “numbers game” that generates exposure over the long-run if they would just stick with it.
Plus, if you know where to submit your articles and send your press releases, each one that you write can generate 3-20 or more new publicity hits and new links to your web site! So, send something to the media at least every month, if not every week or two. Stay on track by scheduling your articles and news releases on your marketing calendar.
TIP #2: Offer Great News Ideas and Quality Articles
To maximize your results, don’t send corporate “flack” to the media. “Flack” is blatant advertising disguised as a press release. Instead of wasting the media’s time, be their ally by sending them real news and quality articles that help their audience.
Don’t think you have enough time or ideas for writing articles and press releases? You probably already have the content for 12 press releases or articles without having to write a bunch of new content.
Where is this “hidden” content that’s already written? It’s the content on your web site, and in your white papers, and other marketing materials. Simply “repurpose” and edit this content into announcements, articles, press releases, tip sheets, and other publicity materials.
TIP #3: Expand Your Publicity Campaign By Building A Media List
In the publicity game, your greatest assets are your contacts. Since you know your ideal customer, you can target the web sites, media, and publications that your customers use to get their news and information. Your media list should consist of the following types of media…
- Industry-specific web sites, and e-newsletters
- Internet blogs, discussion forums and discussion lists
- Article syndicators
- Trade publications
- Newspapers
- Magazines
- Radio & TV shows
TIP #4: Distribute Via E-Mail
A 2003 study by the Meta Group revealed that approximately 80% of business people say their e-mail is more valuable than the phone. This applies to media professionals as well, so send your press releases and articles via e-mail. E-mail is f*ree and easy to use, but adhere to these quidelines for e-mail press releases…
- Introduce yourself via e-mail to the media professionals on your list and start building a relationship.
- Use a compelling subject line that is personalized by including their first name.
- Never ever send attachments
- Be sure to format your e-mails in ASCII text file with hard returns at 65 characters. (Use Microsoft NotePad)
- Following up via the telephone will greatly increase your results, but never ask “did you receive my press release?” (The media hate this question since they get hundreds of press releases a day!)
TIP #5: Post Your Articles On Your Web Site And E-Mail Newsletter
Content is King on the Internet, and the search engines love web sites with great niched content. Your articles and news releases are a perfect source of keyword rich text that’s tasty “spider food” for the search engine crawlers. So, post your articles and press releases on your web site to increase your search engine traffic.
But don’t stop there. Send them to your e-mail newsletter subscriber list, you never know who might be on your list who will love your article and link to it!
CONCLUSION:
As the great P.T. Barnum once said… “Without publicity a terrible thing happens… nothing!” Publicity is a great way to build your web site links, visibility, traffic and sales. Use these tips to maximize your publicity campaign’s success.
Promote! Promote! Promote!

You want to acknowledge this wonderful time in their lives; but you have not a clue as to what to get. Well, we have some ideas to help you. Some of these gifts for the new groom or the new bride, and some can be given to them as a couple.
-Tee shirts imprinted “Just got Engaged”. You can get one just for him or for her or get a matched set for them to wear together.
-The International Star Registry will pick a star in the heavens and you get to pick a name for it. Add their names together as the new star. The Registry will send them a certificate of a new star in their honor.
-Find a four leaf clover that is framed. Add a note that you know they do not need a four leaf clover since they have found each other. They have all the luck they will ever need.
-Get a set of key chains with the attachment is a heart split in half. One half of the heart goes on one chain and the other heart on the other chain. The two halves will make up one heart when together.
-Find a chrome or gold doorknocker and have their first and soon to be common last name inscribed on the plate.
-Find a “countdown clock”. The clock can be set for the number of days until their wedding date. Each day the clock will eliminate one day until they will be married.
-All couples have arguments. Getting over the argument is the difficult thing. Try this as a gift. According to an ancient Irish tradition, engaged couples were presented with a crystal bell. Whenever an argument brewed, all it took was for one partner to ring the bell and the dispute would be instantly settled.
-Find Crystal flutes and have their names etched into the glass with the date of their engagement. Add a bottle of their favorite champagne.
-Things get confusing as the bride plans her wedding. To make sure that she has good memories, give her a Bride’s memory book for her to record all the wonderful things that happened during this time.
-As the Bride starts to plan her wedding, shopping will be a major concern. Shopping for the gown, the bridesmaid gowns, what dinnerware to select, the silver. Send her a magazine subscription to one of the bride’s magazine so she can do some of this work in the comfort of her own home and will her finance.
-Most unions have a little upheaval from time to time. Give your engagement couple a “relationship book” by a reputable author.
You can also check on the Internet and find a site that will give your couple an acre on the moon. They will receive a certificate of their moon acreage.
-Another key ring idea has a lock on one key chain and a key on the other. They will have to decide who has the lock and who has the key.

New Realities for E-Mail Marketing
Spam e-mail is no longer the mild irritant it once was - it’s clogging corporate networks and ISP mail servers and has become a real productivity drain, forcing corporate and consumer e-mail users to spend 20-30 minutes a day dealing with this deluge of junk! According to recent figures, unsolicited bulk e-mail now makes up to 36% of all e-mail, up from under 8% just over a year ago. And, what’s worse, more and more legitimate e-mail is not getting through to recipients due to Spam filtering taking place via ISPs and/or corporate networks.
Opt-in E-Mail Marketing 30K foot Picture
Opt-in e-mail marketing is clearly losing some of its effectiveness as a viable marketing tool much to the consternation of those of us who have been advocating its effectiveness for years! This is not to say opt-in e-mail isn’t a viable way to market goods and services - but ROI (read response rates) is heading south quickly and needs to be considered when assessing the viability of this marketing process, as response rates have dropped on average from 10-20% to 3-10%.
However, opt-in e-mail is not disappearing off the marketing horizons - Forrester forecasts spending on e-mail marketing will grow from $1.3B (USD) in 2001 to $6.8B in 2006 and Jupiter Media Metrix is even more optimistic, forecasting growth rates from $1B in 2001 to $9.4B in 2006. But, there is a dark undercurrent to these numbers that is fueling the market growth and driving down response rates - some opt-in agencies, brokers and media representatives are “flogging” lists by overselling them - so caveat emptor.
Five Offsetting Marketing Strategies
1) Deploy opt-in e-mail campaigns very selectively (!) - buy opt-in e-mail lists from legitimate top-tier broker/list managers who are well established, are not “over-sending” messages to list subscribers and who are constantly refreshing their list quality by adding new subscribers. Critical questions to ask brokers include: how many messages (”frequency” in ad speak) are sent to each list recipient per month, how are new subscribers added and what is the percentage of new members added per month, are they using “third party” (someone else’s list) lists to augment their own, are their lists “double opt in” (meaning, you sign up and then must reply to a signup confirmation to be added to a list) and last but not least, what is their privacy policy and how strictly do they adhere to published industry standards.
2) Utilize plain vanilla text link advertising - find web sites or portals that have traffic that is comprised of customers who are in your market segment. Then, add a text link (banner ad or graphic button if you will) to a page or pages and negotiate a media buy that is based upon a “cost per click” basis; i.e. paying only for traffic that clicks through to your web site.
3) Creating and deploying a “link strategy” campaign (i.e. getting a site listed via other web sites) is one of the best self-sustaining interactive marketing processes available to any company seeking to drive qualified traffic to a web site. This process is not based upon the more traditional “reciprocal links” procedure but incorporates some web-based competitive analysis. You start by analyzing the links that are pointing back to your top 3-5 competitors’ web sites and then establish relationships with these sites and also submit your site to top and second tier directories to augment the number of links.
4) Newsletter insert advertising used to be considered rather mundane and not very effective. But, if you contrast the effectiveness of this process versus the new opt-in e-mail response rates the heretofore-lowly newsletter advertising has new and vastly improved luster! Also, in the past it was difficult to track when and if people clicked on a text link ad in a newsletter - but new technology enables virtually any publisher to provide you with this information, enabling you to track your ROI for the media buy. Finally, the real beauty of newsletter text advertising is that it is very targeted and people want to receive the information so you can be confident your ad will at least be viewed by some finite number of prospects.
5) Search Engine Ranking has come of age in the last 12-24 months - you can now easily create and deploy a traditional (title, description, keywords inserts in content, submissions and optimization) search engine ranking process that is augmented with a pay per click (”PPC”) process. Deploying both ensures you derive long term (traditional rankings) and short term (pay per click) results, with the latter being driven by the amount of funds you have in your marketing budget.
When electricity prices were low, it was unnecessary to justify the upfront outlay of cash required to install solar panels, solar water heaters and similar equipment. The reason was simple to understand - it would simply take too long to recoup the cost of the equipment in the form of lower energy bills.
Things have changed though. As energy prices continue to go up, the amount of time required to recoup the upfront cost goes down. In addition, a number of state and local tax incentives make it even easier for homeowners to go solar and save money right away.
Photovoltaic systems have also come a long way. The costs of installing solar panels is still high, with a typical two kilowatt installation of OVR Solar solar panels costing approximately £10,000 / ($20, 000) in most cases, but special tax incentives and long term energy savings can help homeowners recoup those upfront costs faster than ever before.
Subsidies are also now available. This tax savings can help eligible homeowners recoup some of the costs of installing solar panels and solar water heating systems up front, in addition to the energy savings they will enjoy down the road.
Many states also provide special tax incentives for homeowners who install eligible solar panel and solar water heating systems. The specifics of these tax rebates and tax incentives vary from state to state, but many states provide at least some level of tax relief for homeowners who install and use energy efficient systems.
The amount of time required to recoup the entire cost of a solar panel roof installation will vary according to a number of factors, including the cost of the materials and installation, the availability of tax rebates, tax breaks and other incentives, and of course the price of traditional forms of energy.. However, as the prices for heating oil, gas and other forms of traditional energy continue to soar, the appeal of solar energy will only grow.
Rome is not only famous for its millenary past or for its exceptional monuments: it is a living and vital city that offers its visitors
marvellous views, flavours and colors.
To better appreciate Rome you can now glide throughout the most spectacular places of the Imperial Rome on the coolest ride of the 21st Century.
This new Rome Sightseeing Tour starts with a 30min orientation session and covers all the most glorious places of the Imperial Rome (but the tour will not stop to visit the inside of monuments and museums):
- Circo Massimo (where Chariot Race took place)
- The Arch of Constantine (built to celebrate the victory over Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge)
- The Roman Forum (whith the rests of the Senates)
- The Colosseum (also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre)
- The Trajan’s Column (which commemorates Trajan’s victory in the Dacian Wars)
- Palatino Hills (the centermost of the Seven Hills of Rome)
- Santa Maria’s Church and its Bocca della Verit wall sculpture (the Mouth of Truth: in Medioeval Age it was believed that if one told a lie with one’s hand in the mouth of the sculpture, it would be bitten off)
The Segway is appropriate for virtually anyone 16 and older, up to 70.
This tour includes Audio Guide, Headphones, Ponchos in case of rain, and can be lead by a Personal Guide (surcharge of 15 Euro) or by a Tour Leader.
Advance Reservation is highly reccomended: this Rome Sightseeing Tour is subject to availability and can be purchased online as well as central Hotel in Rome or a Bed and Breakfast in Rome as complementary package.
When I was developing a call center for Xerox, I made a deal with my onsite coordinator:
“Put combination locks on the doors, and don’t permit any tours without speaking to me, first!”
I knew that a successful telemarketing unit would not only attract busloads of corporate tourists and gawkers, but it would be misunderstood.
One reason I promote privacy is that I strive to create a unique environment in a call center, unlike that in any other department. One of my suggestions is to use bells, such as those that adorn the check-in counters at hotels. When a rep sets an appointment or makes a sale, he rings his bell.
This signals success, and it causes a lot of excitement for a number of reasons:
(1) The rep is celebrating his success, making it conspicuous. He gets recognition.
(2) It makes those around him competitive. They want some recognition, too.
(3) It informs management, second by second, how the room is doing.
(4) It reinforces having a louder rather than quieter environment. (See my article: “Bigger Voices Sell Better!”
(5) It’s downright Pavlovian. Want to see management salivate? Ring that bell!
People sell better when they’re uninhibited, extroverted, and one way to get them to be bigger than life is to ring in their sales with bells!
