			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4><a href="http://luther13z.qassia.com/">A new tool called &#8220;Qassia&#8221;</a></h4>
<div class="post-content">
<div class="snap_preview"><b> So what’s this new tool does to bloggers and websites owners.</b> With Qassia,you can add your websites for free, and without having to add reciprocal backlinks. You’ll get unlimited quality backlinks (as opposed to “no-follow” backlinks). You can also add intel. Short for “intelligence”, intel is a tidbit of information. Qassia rewards users who add intel in three ways.</div>
<div class="snap_preview"><span id="more-6"></span><br />
1. <b>Backlinks.</b> You get one backlink for every piece of intel you add. Every intel will carry a direct backlink to one of your sites. So the more intel you add, the more backlinks you get.2. <b>Credit.</b> When you add intel, you also get credit, in the form of Qassia dollars. Your net worth in Qassia dollars determines how well your websites rank in our directory.3. <b>Revenue.</b> When your intel is displayed, you get 100% of the advertising revenue generated by that page. That is not a typo, by the way: they give you ALL of the gross ad revenue that’s what they said in there about page.<br />
This means that website owners have triple incentive to contribute intel. The contributed intel will allow Qassia to become a vast repository of intelligence, with unrivalled original content. And a vast amount of original content draws traffic like honey draws ants, that’s what is it all about they at Qassia.com is aiming to become one or the only one source of repository of intelligence with original content that’s what they say. Interesting to me. <img src="http://theotherjerk.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=")" class="wp-smiley" /><br />
<b>You may ask, and what is this intel thing about?</b><br />
Intel is intelligence, i.e. any tidbit of information. Intel can be a detailed and lengthy academic treatise. But more often it will be just one paragraph with some information only a few people know about. You can write intel in any style you like, and your intel will not get edited by anyone except you.<br />
Intel can be about a person, a company, a place, a thing, or just about anything. The idea is to create a fabric of intelligence stretching coast to coast, covering the society we live in. Got a job offer from a company you never heard of? Meeting a potential room mate? Googling didn’t get you anything useful? Well, Google searches for web pages, not for intel, so you might be more likely to find something interesting at Qassia. Of course, if you want and if you have the knowledge, you can also add more typical stuff found at other knowledge bases and websites. Describe a device. Or dispense advice. Write a scientific paper, replete with footnotes. Or just transcribe some notes scribbled on the back of a napkin.<br />
<b>Isn’t it similar to a Wikipedia, Squidoo or the new Google Knol?</b><br />
Qassia is fundamentally different from these sites, because Qassia is not about asking people to upload authoritative articles. You don’t need to be an egghead at Qassia. You could upload a lengthy academic treatise if you want, by all means, but you can also get away with contributing a hastily scribbled tidbit of information about a person, a company, a place, an event, a thing, or anything you know about.<br />
What they value is intelligence about the people, companies, and places around you. The people and places do not have to be famous, and the intelligence does not have to be earth-shattering. Just like as if you are doing some detective work and you are filing data to make a knowledge based on what you observe and discover.<br />
And also this new tools allows you to add your own website or your blog and get some exposure to the world wide web and if you are monetizing your site or your blog then it gets much audience and viewers and you may luckily get a piece of share from the Google pie, right! : )<br />
The more intel you contribute the more exposure your blog or website will get and you earn a virtual Qassia dollars to use in your promotional activity. Isn’t it fun huh! <img src="http://theotherjerk.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=")" class="wp-smiley" /><br />
Lastly, this new tool for bloggers and website owners is free to join and is still in Beta testing.<br />

Quote of the Day:

"One of the most basic issues we face in our lives is the
feeling of failure or guilt. I come froma minority g.roup,
families where F stood for feedback or flow and not
failure. F's on a test meant a failed test and not a
failure as a human being. F's helped me find my place in
the universe because the family attitude was, "It was meant
to be." And now we would see what good would come of this
event." -- Bernie S. Siegel, MD</pre>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<pre>1. Use more than one P.S. in your ad copy. It is one
of the most read parts of any ad, so why not use two
or three of them instead of one. <span id="more-11"></span>
 2. Gain your visitors attention by telling them your
problems. People like to hear about other people's
problems because it takes away from their own.

3. Create trust with your prospects by telling them
something they already know is true. They'll know
for sure you're not lying and begin to trust you.

4. Survey your target audience to find out things
you have in common with them and use them in
your ad. People like people that are like themselves.

5. Offer free classified ads on your web site that
expire after a particular time period. People will
revisit your web site over and over to resubmit.

6. Forward interesting emails to your online friends
with your signature file included. They may end up
forwarding it to their friends and so on.

7. Organize your web site into categories. Visitors
won't get frustrated and leave your site because
they can't find what they're looking for.

8. Give your web site visitors a "thank you" email
This'll remind them to revisit. Just get their email
address and permission.

9. Advertise that your online business is for sale.
Try to sell it for 10,000,000 d.ollars. You'll either
get 10,000,000 dollars or you'll get curious visitors.

10. Try auctioning off your products. Set up the
auction software on your web site. Give customers
the option of paying outright or bidding.

Quote of the Day:

"I've never been afraid to admit when I've made a mistake.
It nearly drives me nuts sometimes, making mistakes. I keep
telling myself I should be perfect, but that isn't what
we're here for. Perfection isn't an option for us;
perfection is death, Micko. We're here to learn and change,

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<pre>1. Add a free interactive game to your web site. You
could hire someone to create it. The game should be
related to the theme of your web site.
 <span id="more-10"></span>
2. Train your employees as a team instead of just
individuals. Everyone must do their job in order for
the others do theirs.

3. Make people feel like it's their idea to buy, they
will be less hesitant. Tell them in your ad "You're
making a smart decision for buying our product".

4. Promote yourself as well as your products. Write
articles, ebooks, reports, etc. When you endorse
products, people will think your statement is credible.

5. Show your prospects a group of testimonials that
stand up for your product. People are more likely to
agree with a group than have a different opinion.

6. Maximize your advertising budget and don't go
broke like the big web sites. All you need is a small
group of loyal customers to sell back end products.

7. Sell to the people that join your affiliate program.
They are more likely to by your products because
they are interested in selling them for commission.

8. Offer a deluxe product or service as an up sell
or back end product. You won't have to create a
totally new product just add on to your main one.

9. Tell people what they're thinking and feeling as
they read your ad. Most people will actually do it.
Your statements should help sell your product.

10. Make your product offer very rare. People
perceive things that are rare as being more valuable.
You could use a limited time offer or free bonuses.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<pre>1. Attend trade shows and seminars that are related
to your specific industry. Pass out business cards or
brochures about your business. <span id="more-9"></span>

2. Swap articles with other e-zines publishers. You
could get your articles published more often if in
exchange you publish their articles.

3. Ask people to link to your site's content. Some
people may not want to link to your home page but
might want to link to your content.

4. Convert your web site into an ebook. You could
offer your ebook as a free bonus for your product
or another business' product.

5. Create ebooks for other web sites or businesses.
You could create them for no charge in exchange
for an ad or mention of your web site inside.

6. Team-up with eight to ten other sites to promote
the same web site. Just include everyone's products
on the web site you are all promoting.

7. Give free e-mail consultations to your customers.
When you e-mail them back your advice include a
small ad for a back end product your selling.

8. Encourage your customers or visitors to e-mail
you questions about your product or web site. Just
include your sig file with your reply.

9. Give out free web space on your server. Many
of your visitors may want to publish their own web
site. Just require that they publish your banner ad.

10. Design web sites for other businesses for free.
Just require them to publish your banner or text ad
somewhere on their home page.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<pre>1. Make your potential customers forget about the
competition. Just tell them to forget with a factual
and believable reason why they should. <span id="more-8"></span>
2. Joint venture with your competition if you can't
beat them. You could agree to work together and
beat the other competition then share the profits.

3. Visit chat rooms were your potential customers
would gather. You can lurk and do market research
or mention your product to people.

4. Make your web site sticky by building a large
directory of web sites your visitors would enjoy.
It saves them precious time searching for them.

5. Start a free-to-join business association from
your web site. Just ask all members to place your
association logo and link on their web site.

6. Make extra revenue for your web site by selling
advertising space on your web site, in your e-zine,
in your free ebooks, on your classified ad site, etc.

7. Switch your marketing plan when your market
dies for your product. Be flexible and redesign your
product for a different market.

8. Make your web site worth revisiting. Give your
visitors original content, free ebooks, information
web site links, free useful software, etc.

9. Build your o.pt-in e-mail l.ist using an FFA (free
-for-all links page). People can submit links to your
links page and you can send them a thanks e-mail.

10. Reward your customers for giving you product
feedback. It could be discounted products, useful
software, information products, etc.

1. Email each visitor a satisfaction questionnaire
after they purchase. This will allow you to improve
your order system, customer service, site, etc. <span id="more-7"></span>

2. Give a percentage of your p.rofits to a cause your
customers would like. It could be a charity, school,
environmental improvements, etc.

3. Take harsh criticism the right way and improve
your online business. Don't get down in the dumps,
improve the situation so it doesn't happen again.

4. Try bartering before you buy services, supplies
and equipment for your business. You can use the
extra money you save on advertising your business.

5. Give away a follow-up email course on an auto-
responder. Include your ad with each lesson. People
will b.uy quicker when they see your ad repeatedly.

6. Make sure your classified ads don't sound like
an ad. Don't ask people to b.uy anything or they
won't c.lick, give something away instead.

7. Give your free bonus products extra perceived
value. Don't use the phrase "free bonuses" use the
phrase "you will also get".

8. Keep your visitors on your web site longer. The
longer they stay, the greater chance they will b.uy.
Just hold a treasure hunt contest on your web site.

9. Make sure you're always creating new products
and services or improving old ones. Most products
or services won't stand the test of time online.

10. Split the cost of online advertising and marketing
by sharing a web site with a similar, non-competing
business. You would both put up half the cost.

you write about. This will give you and your business
extra credibility which will help you compete against
your competition. 

3. Your article might also be placed on the publisher's
home page. If they publish each issue on their home
page this will give you some extra exposure. 

4. You might get extra exposure if the e-zine publisher
archives their e-zine on their site. People might want
to read the back issues before they make the decision
to subscribe. 

5. You will get free advertising. This will allow you to
spend your profits on other forms of advertising. You
could buy advertisements in other e-zines that don't
publish your articles. 

6. You might get extra income from people wanting to
hire you to write other articles, books, or even ask to
speak at seminars. This is a great way to multiply your
income. 

7. You could allow e-zine publishers to publish your
articles in their free e-books. Since people give them
away, your advertising could multiply all over the
internet. 

8. You will get your article published all over the web
when you submit it to an e-zine publisher that has a
free content directory on their web site. They'll allow
their visitors to republish your article. 

9. You'll gain people's trust. If they read your article
and like it, they won't be as hesitant to buy your
product or service. You will then be able to increase
your profits. 

10. You could get your article guaranteed to run in
an e-zine. You could agree to run one of their articles
in your e-zine if, in exchange, they run yours in their
e-zine. It's a win/win situation.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<pre>1. Find a strategic business partner. Look for ones
that have the same objective. You can trade leads,
share marketing info, sell package deals, etc.  <span id="more-4"></span>

2. Brand your name and business. You can easily
do this by just writing articles and submitting them
to e-zines or web sites for republishing. 

3. Start an auction on your web site. The type of
auction could be related to the theme of your site.
You'll draw traffic from auctioneers and bidders. 

4. Remember to take a little time out of your day
or week to brainstorm. New ideas are usually the
difference between success and failure. 

5. Model other successful business or people. I'm
not saying out right copy them, but practice some
of the same habits that have made them succeed. 

6. Take risks to improve your business. Sometimes
businesses don't want to advertise unless it's free,
sometimes you have to spend money to get results. 

7. Include emotional words in your advertisements.
Use ones like love, security, relief, freedom, happy,
satisfaction, fun, etc. 

8. Ask people online to review your web site. You
can use the comments you get to improve your web
site or you may turn the reviewer into a customer. 

9. Out source part of your workload. You'll save
on most employee costs. You could out source
your secretarial work, accounting, marketing, etc. 

10. Combine a product and service together in a
package deal. It could increase your sales. If you're
selling a book, offer an hour of consulting with it.
