Online Sales: 10 Heavy Duty Tactics To Sky-Rocket Your Online Sales
April 29, 2009
Here are the 10 heavy duty online sales tactics that have helped me to sky rocket my sales:
1. Add extra subjects to your web site. Most free ad sites only allow you to submit your web site to one category. This’ll allow you to submit it to many.
2. Increase the perceived value of your product by making your offer scarce. You could use limited time bonuses, low prices, low quantities, etc.
3. Find out your competitions’ weakness and use it as your “Unique Selling Proposition”. It’s the reason why people buy your products and not theirs.
4. Sell your products or services to a specific niche market. For example, instead of selling your fishing book to all fisherman, target it toward fly fisherman.
5. Test your advertising and marketing. You’ll save time, money and big headaches promoting the right offer to the right group of people.
6. Persuade visitors to buy your product by telling them the future. Tell them what’ll happen with their life in the future if they buy or don’t buy.
7. Offer a free trial of your product for a set period of time. Don’t charge or bill them until they decided to buy it. This’ll take away any risk they have.
The Right Trigger Words
April 28, 2009
CNN.com’s designers have gone out of their way to make their work difficult. They could have built a very simple home page with just their logo and a handful of links:
- The Most Important Story
- The Second Most Important Story
- The Third Most Important Story
- An Unimportant, Yet Entertaining Story
- Yet Another Story about Michael Jackson
If this was CNN’s home page, the designers could go home and not have any work for weeks. After all, what is a news site’s home page but a list of links to the most important stories? (And the unexplainable insatiable curiosity about Michael Jackson’s latest antics.)
Yet, these links aren’t effective for users because they’re missing a key component: the Trigger Words. Trigger words are the words and phrases that *trigger* a user into clicking. They contain the essential elements to provide the motivation to continue with the site.
> The Move-Forward-Until-Found Rule
When dealing with information, a web page can do only one of two things: either it contains the content the user wants *or* it contains the links to get them to the content they want. If a page doesn’t follow this rule, then the users stop clicking and they aren’t likely to find their target content.

Identity Theft - Who is ‘phishing’ for your information?
by: Beth Gabriel
There’s a new type of internet piracy called ‘phishing’ (pronounced ‘fishing’). Internet thieves are ‘fishing’ for your personal information. They’re looking for ways to trick you into giving out your Social Security Number, credit card number and other personal information that they can use to their advantage. You could become a victim of identity theft that could take years to clear your financial history and personal reputation. But understanding how these internet thieves work, will help you to protect yourself from becoming a victim.
How do these thieves get your information?
Typically, you might receive an email from a company that you are familiar with that looks ‘real’. It has the company logo, they may call you by name, and the tone of the email is that they are looking out for your best interests. This email will warn you of some imminent danger to your account or credit card and that you need to take action immediately or you will suffer dire consequences. There will be a link (underlined writing usually in blue) for you to click on that will take you to their website. And guess what? The website they take you to will look like the real thing with the company logo and all.

Here are these online sales magical secrets:

4. Direct your ad headline to your target audience. Your readers will feel important and belong to a select group of people who buy your product. For example; “Attention! Accountants, Discover A New Way To Increase Your Client Base!”

Cisco CCNA Certification: Defining Broadcast Domains

Cisco CCNA Certification: Defining Broadcast Domains
by: Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
When you’re studying to pass the CCNA exam and earn your certification, you’re introduced to a great many terms that are either totally new to you or seem familiar, but you’re not quite sure what they are. The term “broadcast domain” falls into the latter category for many CCNA candidates.
A broadcast domain is simply the group of end hosts that will receive a broadcast sent out by a given host. For example, if there are ten host devices connected to a switch and one of them sends a broadcast, the other nine devices will receive the broadcast. All of those devices are in the same broadcast domain.
Of course, we probably don’t want every device in a network receiving every single broadcast sent out by any other device in the network! This is why we need to know what devices can create multiple, smaller broadcast domains. Doing so allows us to limit the broadcasts traveling around our network - and you might be surprised how much traffic on some networks consists of unnecessary broadcasts.
