The Future of Podcasting - The Life of a Wannabe Pirate
by: Brent Paine
For anyone who isn’t aware what Podcasting is, be advised that you are missing out on one of the biggest technology trends since this little thing we like to call “The Internet” first got started!
Yes, despite all the nay-sayers the popularity of Podcasting is increasing at an astronomical rate. The question is no longer whether Podcasting is a fad, but on how large an audience this new media can sustain!
If you peek back in time, it was around 1994/1995 when the National Science Foundation opened its main backbone to the Internet, giving way to the flood of popularity that followed.
Similar to Podcasting now, people in the mid 90’s claimed the Internet was just a fad and would never amount to more than a fancy means of research. Of course, with advances in software and technology, we began seeing pictures, graphics and yes, even streaming video crop up and it was only a matter of time before it was adopted by tens of millions, and eventually hundreds of millions of people.
Podcasting Is Not The Internet!
Online Business Start-up

Online Business Start-up
by: Bill Naugle
Are you thinking about starting an on-line business? Maybe you have a vague idea of what’s required - maybe you haven’t a clue. This article outlines three basic, non-negotiable things that you will need.
1. Premium web hosting
I suppose it is possible to make a modest income on-line without your own website. But, it is practically impossible to make serious income without your own site. This applies whether you’re selling on EBay, marketing affiliate programs, or selling your own product or service.
A web host provides you with your space on the internet. You want to make sure you get a host who can provide you with plenty of space to grow and excellent data transfer rates. The last thing you want to do is fall for one of the free services that only gives you a small amount of space or can only handle a very limited amount of traffic. You don’t want to be forced to move your site to a different web host after quickly outgrowing your free space.

Realtors Employ RSS Feeds to Sell Homes

Realtors Employ RSS Feeds to Sell Homes
by: Sharon Housley
Daily more and more realtors are turning to RSS as a tool to market homes for sale. The growing RSS phenomenon in the realty market makes perfect sense. Unlike email RSS feeds have a 100% delivery rate. In addition the costs involved in creating and managing an RSS feed are insignificant when compared to the print advertising Realtors spend on each week. Imagine the amount spent each week to promote various properties in circulars and weekly newspapers, compared to the costs associated with updating and managing an RSS feed.
How it Works:
1. Create Specific Feeds.
Create RSS feeds of homes for sale in a specific town or zip code. Another consideration is to create an RSS feed based on the home cost or create a feed of scheduled Open Houses in a specific region. RSS feeds can be created manually using a text editor.
A step by step guide is available at http://www.make-rss-feeds.com or software specifically for RSS feed creation can be used.The realtor publishing the RSS feed controls what information is syndicated in the RSS feed, so ultimately it is the realtor’s decision as to whether to include teaser copy or full articles. Generally most Realtors use copy similar to those in print ads to attract the home-buyers attention.
The Resell Rights’ Deepest Secrets

The Resell Rights’ Deepest Secrets
by: Seth Chong
The only way to keep up with the latest about resell rights is to constantly stay on the lookout for new information. If you read everything you find about resell rights, it won’t take long for you to become an influential authority.
Other than creating your own products in order to join the herds of increasing business online crowd, there are also other easier ways to have an immediate Internet business established.
So what do you need in order to join the Resell Rights business? It is very easy(really mean it..), which is to have a domain name - able to get one easily from Yahoo for $2.99 or namecheap for $8.88, it depends on which you prefer, a hosting, most preferably a paid one - important, and a fully-functional website.
There are tons of hosting out there, and to name a few midPhase(free domain name), lunarpages(free domain name as well), bluehost, or GoDaddy are the better ones.
These are almost the basic requirements of a successful affiliate, but don’t be mistaken - Affiliates and resellers are different.
The Quick and Easy Way to an Income from Home!

The Quick and Easy Way to an Income from Home!
by: Brian Hunter
Undoubtedly, working from home is a dream shared by almost everyone who is shackled to the daily grind of the 9 to 5 syndrome. How nice it would be to tell the boss where to stick his job, to have no more daily battle with the other commuters, to take annual leave when you, yourself, wish to and, more importantly, to decide your own income.
It’s true that working for yourself can have many plus features but, like everything in life, there are both plusses and minusses if you decide to go this route.
Without doubt, one of the most essential requirements is strong self discipline; you and you alone will be responsible for the success or failure of your business. If you are the sort of person who finds it difficult to stick to any sort of regime then your business (and your income) will more than likely perish. Running any sort of business takes persistence and hard work but this can be handsomely repaid when things go right.
Free Email Accounts - Pros and Cons

Free Email Accounts - Pros and Cons
by: Peter Dobler
Free email accounts are great if you want to hide your identity. They are great to sign up for free stuff. They are also very popular for SPAM emails and due to this they also filter too many non-spam emails as well. Ever wondered why you haven’t heard from a friend lately. All a sudden no more emails, not even the forwarded jokes. Your friend just disappeared and you scratching your head what you have done to tick him/her off.
Your friend didn’t disappear, only his/her emails are disappearing. No notice, no error message, nothing, the email simply disappeared. The bad news is, there’s not much you can do about it. On the other hand you can still enjoy the free emails if you switch to a lesser know email provider. Besides the big 3 Hotmail, Yahoo and Google, here’s a list of smaller providers of free email services. Email Accounts For Business Purpose
Did you know that with every web hosting service you will also get enough email accounts to last forever? Not only will an email address that ends in @yourdomain.com show your professional approach to your online business it also gives you great control over what messages you want to receive and which ones you want to filter.

Safety - Online Shopping Tips
by: William M Hall
Shopping on the internet offers numerous benefits that you won’t find shopping in a store or by mail. There are no lines to wait in, no automobile traffic, no conflicts with salespeople, and the most liked benefit is that many times consumers can purchase online without sales tax. However, there are some things that the consumer should be aware of because the internet does have its hidden dangers. I’ve listed the 5 most important tips that should be followed by anyone wishing to “Shop Online”.
1. Use a secure internet connection. Before making a purchase, make sure that the website owner has icons indicating that it has software programs and security in place.
2. Use a credit card for payment. By using a credit card, you the purchaser are protected by the Fair Credit Billing Act which will allow you to dispute any charges that your are unfamiliar with.
3. Do a search for reviews of the vendor by people that have previously done business with the company. Keep in mind that most people don’t leave reviews unless they have an unpleasant experience, but it will give you some general idea of the reliability of the seller.

Critical Steps In Building A Profitable Online Business
by: Elaine Engerdahl
Want to create a profitable online business but have no idea where to begin? Want to create an online business and eliminate the unnecessary expenses. An e-commerce business certainly can be profitable and very rewarding. It can also be very frustrating. There is so much hype and outrageous claims of wealth. It is more about building relationships than instant wealth. I wanted to share a website that I found really refreshing and provides a wealth of great content without the hype and expense.
This website teaches many of the marketing techniques that I paid more than $500.00 to learn and offers if for free. Not only does it teach the important techniques of building a profitable e-commerce business but it also teaches you how to develop a website, eliminating the cost of having somebody else develop it for you. I was amazed at how much information this website revealed.

10 Easier Ways Than SEO To Get Web Site Traffic
by: Joe McVoy
Everyone wants “organic” or “free” traffic, but it’s a full time job to try to keep on top of the search engines changing rules. Instead, if you build a good content-rich site and do the things on this list, you’ll get traffic and help your ranking at the same time.
1. Use Pay-Per-Click (PPC) - Get traffic in an hour with PPC. Google and Overture (now Yahoo). Don’t bother with others until you make these two work. The key to this is to know your visitor value, bid on hundreds of key words and phrases and split test your ads and track each key word, phrase or ad separately.
2. Distribute Your Content - write articles of value to your target market. Distribute that content for other webmasters to use on their sites as long as they keep the link back to you in a “resource box” at the end of each article. Distribute your articles through article directories, ezines, and distribution services. The key to make this work is valuable content.
