Email Overload – Is there a real-time solution?

admin    Google     Email, Overload, RealTime, Solution, There

People have changed the way they communicate in numerous ways since the past 50 years, of which e-mail is a significant one. Electronic mail is a natural use of networked communication technology that developed along with the evolution of the Internet. Network capable email was developed for the ARPANET shortly after it’s creation, and has now evolved into the powerful email technology that is the most widely used application on the Internet today.

Research has shown that people actively use e-mail to maintain core social networks, particularly when alters live at a distance. Today a lot of Social Networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter have changed personal communications from emails to online communities, but still use emails as a mediating factor. For businesses, however, e-mail is extensively used as the widely accepted, first board electronic communication medium. E-mail is very simple to understand and like postal mail, e-mail solves two basic problems of communication:

Logistics- E-mail provides a way to exchange information between two or more people with no set-up costs that is generally far less expensive than physical meetings or phone calls. Synchronization – With real time communication by meetings or phone calls, participants have to work on the same schedule; with e-mail each participant may control their schedule independently.

Most business workers today spend two or more hours of their working day on e-mail: reading, ordering, sorting, ‘re-contextualizing’ fragmented information, and writing e-mail. The use of e-mail is increasing due to increasing levels of globalization—labor division and outsourcing amongst other things. E-mail can lead to some well-known problems:

Loss of Context: which means that the context is lost forever; there is no way to get the text back. Information in context (as in a newspaper) is much easier and faster to understand than unedited and sometimes unrelated fragments of information. Communicating in context can only be achieved when both parties have a full understanding of the context and issue in question. Information overload: E-mail is a push technology —the sender controls who receives the information. Convenient availability of mailing lists and use of “copy all” can lead to people receiving unwanted or irrelevant information of no use to them. Inconsistency: E-mail can duplicate information. This can be a problem when a large team is working on documents and information while not in constant contact with the other members of their team. Overloaded Inbox: If we don’t vigilantly organize our inbox we generally fall into the problem of full inbox and it becomes difficult to send further emails. We have to go back to the inbox and delete mails everytime this problem occurs, which happens quite frequently esp. with Outlook Buried emails: Due to icreasing Inboxes most of the times important emails that we intend to take action on or follow up seem to get buried deep down somewhere and we have to scratch our heads to search for that email

Despite these disadvantages, e-mail has become the most widely used medium of communication within the business world. A December 2007 New York Times blog post described E-mail as “a $650 Billion Drag on the Economy”, and the New York Times reported in April 2008 that “E-MAIL has become the bane of some people’s professional lives due to information overload.”

Is there a real way to deal with this? There are several articles on the web that educate us about goood email management practices. However, do our senders also follow those rules. Not necessarily.

The key to solve this problem is to get organized and there are some really good ways to do that. Some email providers are providing features like “Prioritization of Emails” as a real-time solution. Yahoo has an application for automatic prioritization. There is also an Outlook plugin for Outlook 2003/2007 for automatic prioritization called Nubli.These softwares automatically prioritize your emails into high, medium and low so as to help you focus your attention on each segment as per your time availability.

Some software providers like Nubli go a notch higher and provide you with features like automated tagging which goes a long way into automatically organizing your inbox without you making a consciouss effort to do so. Nubli also has a dashboard to give you an overview of whats happening to your inbox so that you can easily combat the problem of buried emails mentioned above.

On the other hand Google is coming up with Google wave to deal with this problem which they say is a combination of Gtalk, Google Docs, Gmail and some other Google apps to do away totally with emails.

The above solutions are the latest developments in combating email overload. Start using these solutions as your inbox is only going to increase with time. Get a grip of your inbox now before it grips you!!

Are you Doing This to Increase your Google Page Rank?

admin    Google     Doing, Google, Increase, Page, Rank, This

I receive a number of emails from people who are customers and a lot who are not, but could use some advice on how to increase their website`s Google page rank.

So, because my time is limited, and I can not answer the hundreds of emails that I receive, and since today is the start of the New Year, I am beginning my series on tips and tricks for increasing your Google page rank.

I think you will enjoy this series, and most importantly use the tips and tricks I provide to help your website take off.

Lets start with the basics in this series and that is what exactly is the Google page rank and why is it important. The Google page rank or in short called the GPR, is method by which Google ranks the popularity of a website and/or pages on a website. This ranking is handled through Google`s unique and highly classified computer algorithm.

Through this algorithm Google is able to rank and return search results of websites based on what a user enters in the Google search textbox.

Studies and statistics have shown the higher you appear on the search list, the greater chance someone will click the resulting link. For example, lets say you do a search on sneakers and a company comes up as the first link to click. Studies have shown the first link receives the most clicks, followed by the second and so on. The resulting search list was determined by the ranking that combined with the search criteria. The higher your rank as compared to other web sites that meet the same search criteria, the higher your placement will be.

Your goal as a web owner or website administrator is to increase your Google page rank so that your site will appear higher when someone does a search that will meet the criteria of your site.

I know this is a lot of broad based information, however this series will fill in all the gaps and answer all of your questions. I promise. Also feel free to ask me any questions to be answered in a future article in this series.

Now that you know some of the basics, lets get to our first tip. How do you begin to increase that Google page rank?

Start with link exchanging. A link exchange is the matter of you agreeing to post a link on your website pointing back to another website who will do the same. Google looks favorably upon a website when other sites point to it. The more links you have pointing to your site the better off you will be and be able to increase your score.

Keep these few tips in mind when exchanging links. A link exchange is not about your visitors clicking the link to go to another website or vice versa. So do not think that because your link is on another website you will start getting all of their traffic. Chances are you may get some, but that is highly unlikely. The idea is to obtain as many websites as possible to point back to your website (usually your home page) to increase your rank.

Two, keep a separate page of your links. Your website should have a page called links where you display the information of all the websites you have exchanged links with.

Three, your links page should be accessible from your home page so that the Google crawling spiders can find it. That is looked favorable upon.

Four, last but not least, never have more than 50 links to other websites on a given page. Anything over 50 links to a page and Google sees that as being a link farm, and decreases the score of those links. Once you reach 50, start a new links page, and then link the next link page from the first page. Continue this same process for each new links page you need to create.

For example, our website has exchanged links with over 3,500 websites. So we have over 70 pages of links. This of course was done over a period of time, and has increased our page rank tremendously.

In our next article in this series, we will talk about how exchanging links with websites that have already established a sizable Google page rank, has greater benefits.

Google and Bing Face Off with Real-Time Facebook and Twitter Social Search

admin    Google     Bing, Face, Facebook, Google, RealTime, Search, Social, Twitter

As Google continues to topple Microsoft’s Bing in the area of online search, Microsoft showed us that they’re not backing down, and surprised the social media world with a major announcement on Wednesday: Bing will now feature “tweets” – and soon, Facebook status updates – in real-time as part of their search engine results.

Initial reactions were a bit negative, as users worried about their privacy, and why it was even necessary to include them in results in the first place. After all, there are already many Twitter-specific search engines that produce real-time and analytical results, such as Twitter’s own search feature. Twitter was quick to assure users that privacy settings could be adjusted accordingly, and also stressed the fact that not all tweets would be included in searches. Twitter creator @Biz wrote on the Twitter blog,

“Twitter is providing Bing access to the overwhelming deluge of public, real-time tweets rushing in from all around the world so they can help you find those that make the most sense right now. While Twitter currently presents tweets based simply on timeliness, Bing is experimenting with new solutions such as “best match.”

While the announcement has definitely generated more buzz and usage of Bing, the question still remains: how relevant will it really be? If you’ve ever used the Twitter search, either by keyword or hashtag, the results can be overwhelming, streaming in at hundreds or thousands of results each second. If this happens with the Bing searches, will it turn users away? Microsoft claims there will be a feature to sift out irrelevant results, by analyzing keywords, number of retweets, and more in order to produce the best information; just how well it will work is still to be determined. In the end, users who use Bing as a “decision engine” will definitely have more opinions to chose from in order to make their choice.

This new feature has the potential to be big, as long as it can actually add value. While it may be more convenient, and raw results are interesting to see, but without a purpose, it will slowly become irrelevant. There is more data than ever before, between Web sites, blogs, social media profiles and more. In the race to relevancy, it’s the one who can find a way to bring all of that information together in a useful, interesting, and easily accessible way who will ultimately cross the finish line first. In the eyes of most users, that “one” is still Google.

Just hours after the Bing announcement, Google went one step further and announced the new Labs feature of Social Search, which will not only pull in Twitter results, but those from other social media platforms as well (similar to how you now see Google News and Images results). Already ahead in…

Opt-in or Real Time Leads….It’s Your Choice!!!

  Opt-in or Real Time Leads….It’s Your Choice!!!

Opt-in Leads and Real Time Leads generated in your own marketing system can help rocket your website(s) to new heights that you never imagined could be possible.

I like to use Wikepedia…the free encyclopedia to offer their view on the true meaning of various marketing terms. I searched Wikepedia and found some interesting content regarding sales leads. My goal was to accurately understand the difference between Opt-in and Read Time leads.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Similarities

“Opt-in leads are similar to Real Time Leads in that they are generated by individuals seeking home based business opportunities via the internet.”

Differences:

“Differentiators between Opt-in Leads and Real Time Leads are timeliness, cost and how they are used. Often, Opt-in Leads are approximately 72 hours old – Real Time Leads are seconds old.”

Opt-in Leads:

A good quality Opt-in lead should include the persons name, email address and in some cases a phone number. With a viable name and email address you can contact the individual or business with your current method of follow-up. A phone call is the most positive method of follow-up, however, use what ever method of follow up that has been effective for you. As stated above the Opt-in Lead is much cheaper to generate than a Real Time Lead, so as a business person you must make the determination of which kind of lead and what cost you are willing to expend for such a lead.

Use Both Opt-in and Real Time Leads:

As a small business owner you may opt to generate both kinds of leads and compare which is the most productive and cost effect in your particular business.

Real Time Leads vs. Opt-in Leads:

Understanding that Real Time Leads are in most cases only seconds old, your chance of successful conversion from a lead to a sale may be worth the difference in cost. The advantage here of course is you can contact that potential client immediately. Remember, phone contact in this scenario is by far the best way to follow-up and have the best chance of a successful closure of a sale.

Opt-in leads are normally 72 hours old or more. This lead may best be followed up by using your normal email follow-up. Only use your normal email follow-up procedures if you have experienced good results. Don’t hesitate to use the telephone to follow-up with the Opt-in leads also. Using the phone for follow-up will always be the best method to get the highest conversion ratio of leads to sales on any type of lead you may purchase or generate.

Generating Your Leads Economically:

The question then is how can you economically generate the sales leads that you need to keep your business on a profitable basis, plus see additional growth. In my online experience as an SEM/SEO Consultant, I have researched numerous companies and found there are online companies that have designed effective programs to help you succeed in your marketing efforts and help your build your business on a steady, profitable growth path. These programs have been designed with the small home based business person in mind. Simple to use…affordable to use….plus these programs will help you generate quality Opt-in and Real Time leads in your own marketing system.

Do Your Research:

These Lead Generation programs will help you rocket your lead generation efforts to new heights quicker and more affordable than purchasing “so called” leads . You can visit some of my sites and see just how comprehensive this program really is. With the free features of the systems you can check your keyword and keyword phrases with the free popularity checker. Submit your URL to the premier search engines for free and have leads that you can actually contact within a matter of hours.

How Important is Google Page Rank

admin    Google     Google, Important, Page, Rank

There are millions of articles on the web that teaches people how to increase their page rank. Some of these articles have gave Google’s page rank a very high importance by presenting them as the most important thing a website owner should look for.

In order to determine whether Google’s page rank is really useful or not we have to look at it from two different angles. How Page rank affects your website’s traffic and how does it affect the sales of your products. After all, the only sources of income you can get out of a website are advertisements (which depend on traffic) and selling products (either selling your products or selling through affiliate programs) so it makes absolute sense to examine those two major factors since they are the ones that are responsible for your website’s revenue.

How does Google page rank affect your traffic

From the experience I have in the E-business world and after developing many websites that generate respectable monthly income I can confidently say that Google’s page rank has a minimal effect on your website’s traffic or even a non existent effect.

What determines the position of your website in the search results are hundreds of factors that might include the page rank In between them. I have seen tons of websites having a page rank of Zero yet they are being displayed on the top 10 results in Google’s search.

I also ran a website that jumped from a rank of zero to a rank of four without any noticeable increase in Google’s traffic. So the conclusion is, Google’s page rank might be having a little effect on your search engine’s traffic but this is effect is so small that it cannot prevent a well optimized website having a rank of zero from appearing on the top of the results.

Hoes does Google Page rank affect your sales

In my article, how to increase my EBook sales, I described how trust can be the most important factor that lets a visitor buys your products online. The more trust you can build in the visitor the more likely is he to buy your product. Some consumers, but not all, can trust websites that have a higher page rank because it gives them the feeling that their money isn’t going to be lost.

The “S” word scares most of online users and that’s why they never buy from a website unless they make sure that it’s not a Scam. A higher page rank also helps users know that Google respects your site and so this gives your site and your products further credit.

Is Google page rank really useful?

Yes it is, but not when it comes to traffic, it can only help consumers perceive your website in a better way and it can help them have more trust in it. To summarize this in one line, Google’s page rank may not affect your traffic but it will defiantly affect your sales and the way people perceive your website.

Social Media – A Family Connection

admin    Social Media     Connection, Family, Media, Social

Social media is a perfect vehicle for connections between family and friends. While it has many marketing opportunities there is a more personal side to social media worth exploring.

For instance, families used to connect only through the occasional letter that may be passed around from one family member to another and photos of grandchildren were passed along in Christmas cards.

Today social media is having an impact on how scattered families can remain connected. Beyond the useful emails, the use of social media can allow families to access a number of methods to help keep others up-to-date on family news.

Slide Shows – this is a photo tool that can allow you to send highlights of a special event in the life of your family such as a birthday party, anniversary or family trip. In a matter of moments your family can gain access to a visually pleasing presentation of your most immediate adventures.

Social Networks – many social networks provide a privacy setting that only allow approved members into your personal network. For all intents and purposes this type of network allows you the privacy you may desire in sharing family news, audio, video and photos in one convenient setting. Other family members can also set up a privacy account, which allows a no-cost alternative to family connections.

YouTube – Video sites like YouTube can be repositories for family videos. In most cases, however, the video information remains available to the public for viewing. If privacy is a primary concern there are programs such as BigUpload that will allow you to host a video or other large file and select email addresses to receive access to the files for download.

Family Forums or Blogs – the use of a forum or blog can allow the various personalities of your family to shine through. They can also allow you to coordinate potential gatherings or gift exchanges. Due to the dynamics of family there might even be the occasional bit of tension – even cyberspace can’t change that.

The use of social media offers great opportunity for families to enjoy the privacy you want with the connectedness you desire.

When you participate in a social network you can also branch out to visit other friends without disrupting the privacy you need. If you desire a more public profile you should check with the social network to see if they allow a second account. If they do, the second account can be used to keep in contact with a more public audience.

Social media provides a unique opportunity to connect families in the 21st century. Perhaps it is an idea worth pursuing.
