			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>﻿﻿One of the most common mistakes newbie marketers make when learning to market is to study what they are learning instead of doing what they learn. In school you have to study but outside of school everything is an open book test. There is no more theory everything is testing and you test everything. One test isn&#8217;t enough you have to test things multiple times because almost nothing works the first few time you try them.</p>
<p>A funny thing is that most new marketers never make it to the point of being able to test because their so busy studying how to market that they never actually start marketing. Their constantly after the next thing to make marketing easy that they keep buying courses and never completing any of them in order to start getting results. Then they complain that nothing works and it&#8217;s all a bunch of scams.</p>
<p>Here is a message to all newbie marketers if you buy a course don&#8217;t just go through the information put it to the test. Actually follow the course and do everything it tells you that way if you don&#8217;t make money you can always contact the person that sold you the course to help you or get your money back. That is really the only way to find out who the real marketers from the fake ones.</p>
<p>You have to understand that people that sell how to products are in the business of selling products to people that want to buy them and you really shouldn&#8217;t get emotionally attached to any marketer and just buy it because he is offering it. I have done this and wasted lots of money doing so. The best way to learn from a how to product and who to learn from is buy the course and take action on what is being taught. If it works and you get the results you want buy the next product if that will help build upon what you are already doing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Is one of the most common mistakes people make when trying to sell stuff on the Internet, is figuring out exactly what they want to sell. Most of them start with this humongous topic and think that they can make a website and just sell that particular thing. For instance if a person knows about cars they think that they just can get on the Internet and sell whatever it is they want about cars.</p>
<p>On the Internet it&#8217;s much better to niche down exactly what it is that you wish to talk about to a specific topic. If you want to sell car rims then you should make that specific website about car rims and if you want to sell spoilers and you should make a website about nothing but spoilers. One of the main reasons for doing this is that it makes your website seems like the authority on that subject.</p>
<p>Think of it like this when you go to the doctor for a specific problem you want to see a specialist who specialize in nothing but that particular problem. The same thing goes for people searching for something on Internet. If I&#8217;m buying tires and I want to know which of the best tires and I go to a website that sells alternators, rims, tires, it everything else that belongs on a car I don&#8217;t really trust what they say are the best rims.</p>
<p>Now when I go to a website that sells nothing but tires and only tires I give a lot would trust what they say are the better tires. Using this as a hypothetical example but it is universal for all topics. Not to mention that it seems to be a lot easier if you&#8217;re trying to search engine traffic to your website.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All everyone is talking about nowadays is how the algorithm change and all of the collateral damage that was done. It just goes to show that if you only use shortcuts without building your sites on a solid foundation you will pay for it at some time. Not saying that this could not have happened anyway but the chances are a lot slimmer as they have proven to be again.</p>
<p>On the other hand this also opens up a lot of opportunities for marketers to claim they found loopholes in the new algorithm change creating a massive profit for them. It&#8217;s times like this that even makes a niche marketer like myself want to start promoting how to make money products. I used to be one of those customers looking for the super quick magic bullet. The lesson learned in the process was that the basics is all you really need to be successful in marketing.</p>
<p>As of lately I have been paying special attention as to what new products have been coming out. In doing so I have realized that there really aren&#8217;t very many evergreen products on the market. Most of products being sold today are new and expensive upgrades of something old that has already been launched or they&#8217;re claiming it to be a new shortcut that will give you instant results.</p>
<p>There is absolutely nothing wrong with using shortcuts to help get you results faster but you really need to learn the basics so when all else fails you know how to secure your business. Search engine marketing is really not as complicated as it seems but just like anything else when your new at it all of the new terminology and tasks can get overwhelming.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First off is my hat goes off to JCPenny for really being the brave enough to get back in the .com marketplace. What they really experienced was outsourcing gone bad. They relied on an SEO company to get them ranked for some really competitive keywords which they did but they didn&#8217;t follow the most important rule there is to SEO protect your money site.</p>
<p>Anyone can get good rankings but the key to getting those ranking and keeping them is to always protect your money site at all cost. By right Google really should have de indexed their site but because they are a brand name I wonder how many get out of jail free cards will they get from Google. One of the things they have proved is that relevance doesn&#8217;t really as big as a part in ranking as a lot of people think.</p>
<p>What relevance does is tell the search engines if your trying to game them or not. This whole deal should be a wake up call to all SEO&#8217;s that big businesses need your skills and we all know they have plenty of money to spend. JCPenny the next time you hire a company to do your SEO hire a SEO consultant every so often to see how well they are really doing. Getting the rankings is only half the battle being able to keep them is something else.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was reading this article posted in the New York Times about how<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/13/business/13search.html?scp=2&amp;sq=jc%20penny&amp;st=cse"> JCPenny</a> has been using tactics are against Google&#8217;s terms of service to rank high in their search engine. This puts Google in a tough situation because whatever actions they take against the JCPenny website should be the same action they take for every website. You can make the argument that even though JCPenny broke the rules they still only displayed what was relevant to what the searcher was searching for.</p>
<p>JCPenny is a well know reputable store that has been around for decades and should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this to happen. If they really want to make money on the internet they need to do what every other online retailer does get affiliates to promote there products. Pay a reasonable commission in a reasonable amount of time and they will be able to have a sales force driving massive amounts of customers to them.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s funny how when it comes to making money on the internet nobody thinks they should have to pay out do whatever you have to do to get money coming in. JCPenny knows what it&#8217;s like to have employees so it really shouldn&#8217;t be much of a problem for them to pay affiliates commissions since they only get paid on performance instead of how they have run their business so far on salaries.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Right now there are a lot of people looking for additional ways to  make money. This really shouldn&#8217;t be a surprise do to the condition of  the economy today. Considering, that there are still quite a lot of  people not able to find work. To their misfortune the monthly and weekly  expenses continue to keep coming in and if they don&#8217;t get paid then  comes the unforgiving phone calls. Because money does not grow on trees,  this leaves many people searching everywhere they can for easy ways to  make money from home. Whatever your preconceived thoughts are about  earning money from home, there are a whole lot of people who have found a  way to do it and are generating some nice healthy incomes each and  every day. Which means it is a feasible task.</p>
<p>For those who are brand new to come up with ideas for a easy ways to  make money from home, you should begin with something in which your  already interested in. This is the best place to begin simply because it  really makes the whole process a whole lot easier instead of it being  grudgery. For instance lets say you have a hobby and, you just  absolutely love knitting clothing, well this should be something you  want to consider as a means for you to be able to generate extra income.  It doesn&#8217;t matter if you have never made any money in this manner  before,because it doesn&#8217;t mean that you can&#8217;t start making money doing  it now.</p>
<p>What it really takes is for you to get serious with it and start to  invest little of your time, effort and initiative. This This is where a  whole lot of people that have searched for ideas for easy ways to make  money at home started. The ones that stick with it and are successful  are also now very happy because they are able to make money doing  somethings they really enjoy. This is such a beautiful thing, and in  reality this is how it should be. Nobody should ever be stuck doing  something they despise just to make a living.</p>
<p>The misconception about making money from home is people think they  shouldn&#8217;t have to spend much money getting it started then the only  expense they have is their time. It is possible to build a successful  home business that way but it a lot harder to do. A home business should  be treated as a real business and has operational expenses that you  must fund until the business can fund itself.</p>
<p>One easy way to make money from home with only a start up money  is by trading stocks. Of course you do have to do the ins and outs of  trading stock as well as how to do research for choose which companies  are performing best and what is a good time and price point to enter  your trade. If you don&#8217;t do those things then you might as well take a  trip to the race track and bet on some horses because your doing nothing  but gambling.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most people hear the word discipline and the feeling most of us get is something negative, rigid or just something that isn&#8217;t going to be easy is about to come next. The reality is that no matter what discipline is always at work either it&#8217;s working with you or against you. What it really is, is a habit or the act to change that habit. </p>
<p>In most cases in order to achieve the things you want you will have to discipline yourself to change the habits that you already have. &#8220;If you keep doing the same thing over and over your bound to keep getting the same results&#8221; but is you change one small thing the results will also be different. Most people are scared to discipline themselves improve their very one lives and the lives of the people around them and wonder why their not capable of achieving greatness.</p>
<p>Either you learn to embrace discipline and deal with the discomfort or&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Life is full of challenges and getting through them is what makes you stronger and able to achieve whatever it is that you want. Nick Vujicic is a guy that has every reason in life to be a failure but by simply changing his perspective, vision and choices he has become very successful and is in fact helping others. You have to ask yourself with his limitations does he make up for it with incredible intelligence or is he a regular person with drive that has made him successful.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BnT9vIX048E&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BnT9vIX048E&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This is proof that what you focus on expands and by not focusing on his  limitations Nick is able to bring value to the world instead of trying  to get all he can for nothing. I couldn&#8217;t leave you stuck wondering or having to search on your own for the second part so here it is.</p>
