my WORK AT HOME TIPS

Last night an unexpected thing happen to us, my youngest daughter Elai was scratch by a stray cat near her neck. As soon as my wife realized the incident she started to freak out. This created a lot of tension in the house. Tension that made also my eldest daughter to cry even louder than Elai. You could just imagine the environment (three girls freaking-out, oh man… :-)).

I on the other hand called my mother and asked her if she could take care of Jeth (oldest) as we rush Elai to the nearest hospital for anti-rabies. Then I called the different clinics within our area and asked if they administer anti-rabies, luckily I found one in just a few calls. Then the rest is history… she got injected and were told to come back for follow-ups.

What did I learned from this experience? In business it is the same with family life… there will be a lot of surprises to come. There will be times that when you expect that everything is running smoothly an untoward incident will happen that is beyond your control.

You might be ranking high in Google search for a certain keyword then the big G changes its algorithm and you finally found yourself on the 5th page. Or worst your website got deface due to a security hole in your CMS. Instead of freaking out you may want to remember the following points:

1. Be calm. It is much easier to think and make decision when the mind is calm. In emergency cases Paramedics always stay calm so that they can assess the situation and make appropriate decision.

2. Damage control. Do the first necessary solution. For example if your site was defaced, you may want to closed your hosting temporarily or change the index page asap. It is much nicer to see a 404 Page than a porn page.

3. Ask an expert. Seek the help of experts in the problem that you are encountering. First it will be much faster to solve the problem, second it will be more concrete since they have already experience it. If you cannot afford for an expert seek solution through web forums or community. It is more probable that someone has encountered your problem and may offer quick solution.

There will always be unexpected things to come, accept it as challenge so that the next time we encounter it we will be more prepared in dealing with it.

My wife is an avid fan of American Idol and she watch the show relentless. Aside from that she spend countless hours reviewing the opinions from fans about the performance of each contestant.

In today’s show there are about 38 million votes that came in. And this just the flock from the United States. I wonder if they have statistics for international viewers. What’s my point? 38 million viewers and they are also potential customers. Selling only a dollar to this followers will give you 38 million dollars. Well, this is only a rough estimate.

Itunes is selling 0.99 per download, you multiply that by the number of viewers then you have your gross sales. Impressive.

Perhaps this might be the computation done by the “ebook gurus” low price + sell it to the masses and there you have it “millionaire”.

Well, but one need to solve how are we going to reach the “million flock”.

Hmmm. Now this is one strategy to consider.

more power reaching our “million flock”.

by the way bye Carly -

Google has advised its publisher that there is new policy on being a publisher. If you are an existing adsense publisher you will see the new policy once you log-in to your account. You need to agree on this policy before continuing to log-in to your account.

One of the provision of the new google policy is adding a privacy policy page on every page that show google adsense. Thsi is easy if you own a relatively small number of websites. But owning a 100 sites is a different story. Anyway, if your website is based on Wordpress, there is a privacy plugin tool that you can easily use to easily add the privacy policy page.

You can find the plug-in here for free. Just install the plug-in and generate a PP Page and wallah, an instant privacy plug-in.

You can get the free plug-in on this web address: http://www.synclastic.com/plugins/privacy-policy/

more power to us.

While I was searching for the “magic formula” on being a multi-millionaire in the Internet business, I came across to the blog entries of two prominent blogger in the Internet/Affiliate community. Joel Comm and Andrew Wee seem to be telling the same main ingredient for success to happen: “action”.

A lot of Internet marketers, that includes me, is always looking for the magic formula in order to succeed online. We buy most of the eBooks that has been release, spend time in forums asking questions “how to earn money” but we have not implemented what we have learn. We have the excuses like I do not have a domain, I do not know how to write, I am not a techie guys, and countless I do not know. I have seen in forums that some of the successful internet marketers have started their careers in making blogs at blogger.com (of course having your own domain is better).

Perhaps, the main formula is to act now and learn the things as you go along the way.
There is a saying that “how will you know that your writing sucks if you have not written something”.

Set your plan in motion to take the initial steps in the “millionaires” journey.

“Even a thousand technique is useless if is not projected into the hands.” – from the book Samurai Selling.
