			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi There, </p>
<p>This is goldmaker time.. Ready for this one?&nbsp; I&rsquo;ve just spent the last couple of hours outlining all of the methods I could think of to drive traffic to your website, and increase it exponentially! (and mine)</p>
<p>Here goes, </p>
<ol>
<li>Comments on blogs, remembering to leave the url of your website.</li>
<li>Posting your link on social bookmarking websites (use bookmarking demon)</li>
<li>Using mailing lists with autoresponders.</li>
<li>Writing articles and submitting them around the web with your link at the bottom.</li>
<li>Using software to submit your website to all of the search engines.</li>
<li>Use online advertising such as adwords, use keywords that are related to your product, make sure that you mention these on your website.</li>
<li>Create an affiliate marketing programme, get other people to drive traffic to your site for you!</li>
<li>Using search engine optimization (use the correct keywords in your pages)</li>
<li>Create an xml sitemap of your website (for google) - increases the chance of your entire website being indexed</li>
<li>Submit your website to directories (such as dmoz.org) in the correct, relevant category.</li>
<li>Start a blog, post as many articles on your blog each day as humanly possible,</li>
<li>Create your own comments on your blog and remove comments that are negative/spam.</li>
<li>Use social networking websites such as MySpace, Facebook, linked-in etc. and add as many people as you know and dont know.&nbsp; </li>
<li>Word of mouth. Tell everybody about your website.</li>
<li>Create a T-Shirt, put your website address on it and keep wearing it every day and show it off.</li>
<li>Create a Resell-Rights/giveaway product,distribute it to the membership sites for people to sell-on. Have links back to your website within the product.</li>
<li>Do a podcast, talk about what you do, throw in a couple of tunes. Mention the website</li>
<li>Get on radio shows, talking about your product, mention the website.</li>
<li>Advertise on radio, whether online or offline.</li>
<li>Create a video talking about what you do and your website, post the video to youtube, google video, and all the other ones.</li>
<li>Advertise in the small-ads or local newspaper, most have a listing.</li>
<li>Google video has a world map, pin your website on where your office is.</li>
<li>Viral marketing, do something outlandish with your product.</li>
<li>Post press releases on your website, this will increase your search engine ranking.</li>
<li>Traffic Exchanges - Advertising where each click on your website will make a click on someone elses.</li>

<li>Chat. Talk with people on IRC, ICQ, MSN, Skype, etc. about your product. DO NOT spam, thats a bad move, ease yourself in there slowly.</li>
<li>Buying traffic in bulk - there are websites that will sell you 1000&#8217;s of visitors for a very good price.</li>
<li>Write a glowing testimonial of a product, and get them to include your name and website.</li>
<li>Sponsor someone else&#8217;s mailing list!&nbsp; Its a great way to get traffic, and it will be targeted as well.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you heard of Henry Gold and Socrates? The guys that are known as the most prolific teachers in the consulting world. </p>
<p>The guys that are known BEHIND many of the &#8220;117&#8243; huge give away events. </p>
<p>I have actually been ON THIS COURSE! The FIRST EVER ONE! It was TOTALLY AMAZING, it blew me away, my business is well on its way to make <u>one million dollars</u> by my birthday (which is november the 15th) </p>
<p>When you know Henry Gold and Socrates for a while (just like I do), they are NOT a snobby people. </p>
<p>However, in terms of teaching students on their expertise, they are mentors with integrity. </p>
<p>They will tell you like it is. It means that&#8230; </p>
<p>If your business model SUCKS (Pardon the way they talk), </p>
<p>they will tell you EXACTLY how to fix it. They DO NOT MINCE WITH THEIR WORDS!!</p>
<p>If you do NOT do your business development homework, you are looking for trouble. </p>
<p>If you do YOUR BEST on getting things done, they will NOT hesitate to help you REACH your success. </p>
<p>That&#8217;s the type of people Henry Gold and Socratesreally are. They are NOT here to make people happy. </p>
<p>They are NOT here to make friends with you. They are HERE to GET YOU THE RESULTS you want in life. </p>
<p>AGAIN, if you have NOT heard about Henry Gold and Socrates (You should anyway), they will PERSONALLY show you EXACTLY how to build your business the right way here, go here NOW and order this amazing telemarketing course, with NO SHIT ADDED ! Its ONLY just what you need to know, not some book on adwords that layers on a pile of CRAP to pad out the book, its the SERIOUS information that even THEY don&rsquo;t know!</p>
<p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/2beadw" class="extlink">Destroy Competitors Marketing Course</a><font color="#0000ff"> </font></p>
<p>Go and change your life, if you don&#8217;t, you&#8217;ve only just missed the biggest opportunity to learn from the biggest and best marketers on the internet: </p>
<p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/2beadw" class="extlink">Destroy Your Competitors</a><font color="#0000ff"> <font color="#0000ff"></font></p>
<p></font></p>
<p>They will SHOW you how to BUILD your empire. They will SHOW you how to DESTROY your competitors. </p>
<p>They will SHOW you how to build a business based on long term (Not just a get rich quick method) </p>
<p>Best of all, they will SHOW you how to build your business based on a strategic system, where you will DESTROY YOUR COMPETITORS in the long run. NO EXCEPTIONS! </p>
<p>Go ahead and RESERVE the seat immediately at: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/2beadw" class="extlink">http://tinyurl.com/2beadw</a><font color="#0000ff"> </font></p>
<p>They do NOT care who you are. </p>
<p>They do NOT care what type of business you are into. </p>
<p>They do NOT care whether you reserve your seat or not. I just know that the seats will SELL OUT fast. </p>
<p>In fact, on their first coaching program, a lot of people were BEGGING them to enter. </p>
<p>They firmly said &#8220;NO&#8221; to ALL of them. </p>
<p>Do it NOW, before it is too late! I know people who were too late last time and they were SO dissapointed, that they are booking it as SOON as it goes live, ITS NOW LIVE, NO EXCEPTIONS!! ONCE IT RUNS OUT, YOU&rsquo;VE LOST OUT ON THE BIGGEST CHANCE OF MARKETING BIG TIME.</p>
<p>Through what i&rsquo;ve learned from these guys, a measly $198 for this sort of coaching is NOTHING, its a small drop in the ocean compared to what you would WASTE on adwords because you know how adwords works, but you dont know HOW to set it up efficiently, how to pick your keywords correctly, basically, THEY BRAINDUMP EVERYTHING THEY KNOW! and the best part is YOU CAN ASK THEM QUESTIONS, </p>
<p>They have Q&amp;A sessions where you ask the questions and they provide answers, and i mean DETAILED answers, from every possible angle!</p>
<p>This website was set up through the help from them, and its going SKY-HIGH with traffic at the moment, every marketing wanna-be is hitting these pages wanting to know the next big trick, if you want to know for sure, just join this course, ok thats it, just do it!:</p>
<p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/2beadw" class="extlink">Destroy Your Competitors</a><font color="#0000ff"> </font></p>
<p>If you want to send this to a friend you can use this link, its shorter and more convinent to use:</p>
<p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/2beadw" class="extlink">http://tinyurl.com/2beadw</a><font color="#0000ff"> </font></p>
<p>Yours, </p>
<p>Dave Goldmaker</p>
<p>PS.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Organic food is fast-becoming one of the largest growth areas in the UK with &pound;1billion spent per year now in organic produce.&nbsp; Organic box schemes are overtaking supermarkets in sales of vegetables in the uk.</p>
<p>Organic food is not only the future, also in the past, the food was by definition organic! So you can&rsquo;t call normal food normal, because it isn&rsquo;t! Its made using chemical fertilisers.</p>
<p>What about meat? Well, we managed to track down one of the first ever organic butchers, based in Perthshire, Scotland, Jamesfield Organic Centre, or better known as Jamesfield Farm rear their own animals in the traditional way which doesn&rsquo;t use any artificial chemicals, preservatives or feeding them remains of other animals, which is re-assuring!</p>
<p>I&rsquo;ve just found out that their website has just been updated and overhauled, they have special offers on at the moment but you have to be on the british mainland to order food from them, so sorry to the rest of the planet, you&rsquo;re out of luck!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.jamesfieldfarm.co.uk/" class="extlink">http://www.jamesfieldfarm.co.uk/</a></p>
<p>Alexa ratings for their website went up by 25% over the last 3 months whereas a lot of their competitors went down from 69 to even 100%, which is a good sign for them.</p>
<p>Ian Miller who runs the farm says that a lot of the supermarkets and even online competitors (not in the organic arena) are selling meat that is not fit for human consumption in the long-run, they cannot assure the customer of where their meat actually came from. Sausages made supposedly in the&nbsp;UK can contain meat from other countries!</p>
<p>Also, there is still a lot of animals being fed remains of other animals which is not good for anyone.</p>
<p>We will track down Ian Miller in the future for more information, but just at the moment, online ordering of organic produce is a big winner for Ian, as he can get to customers he wouldn&rsquo;t ordinarily get to without a chain of shops.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m interested in hearing your opinions about myspace and what you think could be better with it as i am working towards a new website that has similar features for musicians / listeners as well as many other features, which are silently growing on the site.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s been a few sites over the years that i&#8217;ve put my music on including mp3.com, amp3.com, vitiminic and many others but i&#8217;ll agree that the instant gratification of what you need is there with myspace, the music plays as you go to the page - no dodgy setup of m3u files or whatnot with your media player.</p>
<p>The community thing is also a great feature, having friends (or fans) adding to your list, sending messages - one of the things previous sites almost forgot about completely. a simple blogging tool is another good one, as is the ability to &#8216;pimp up&#8217; your myspace. </p>
<p>The limits to 4 songs is in keeping with the industry standards for demo&#8217;s, so another win? A few pictures of the band, great stuff. </p>
<p>For me, music has always been art - i create it because i like doing it, but also money has never really been the driving factor although i&#8217;ve made a couple of thousand dollars on mp3.com and amp3.com.</p>
<p>What i want to ask regarding this is this : has the focus of record labels / artists moving away from making money online (since piracy will always prevail) - or towards advertising, or just mass exposure from giving away freebies in the hope that we&#8217;ll make money some other way, or something else?</p>

<p><a href="http://www.ioncube.com/" class="extlink">http://www.ioncube.com/</a></p>
<p>From what i&#8217;ve heard, its uncrackable! Great!</p>
<p>Its possible to sell php scripts and not worry about people ripping off your source code and re-selling it, it can be tied down to only run on a paticular ip or even mac address.</p>
<p>If i sell a product, this is what i would use, definetly, or a similar product that is just as protected.</p>
