Internet Marketing: Now That You Have An Original & Unique Article…Post It!!!

Now that you have an article that you have re-written to be more than 40% unique and original (by using dupecop) you can take your short article and post it to your blog on your web site. Make sure that you “ping” your blog so that search engines will know that you are out there and that you exist. Make sure also that you have key words and key word phrases in your article so that the search engines will pick your post up and set it higher in the rankings. You want to be on the first page of search engine results so that you can get more traffic to your web site (and eventually more cash into your pocket).

You can, of course link to an affiliate web site in your post, but that will be a discussion that I will save for tomorrow. Remember that you can always post any questions that you have on this to the website and I will get to them as I am able.

Have a GREAT day!!

Positive Mental Attitude - Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

As a holder of a degree in music, I love songs! Not any one particular genre, but songs in general. When I think of positive mental attitude I think of the Monty Python song Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.Whatever you focus on, you tend to gravitate toward. If all you ever think about is how you are poor and you don’t have enough money, guess what? … You will be poor and not have enough money. If, instead, you focus on the things that you have going your way and how successful those are, you will be harvesting feelings of empowerment and success.

It is up to you!

Instead of focusing on the $1,000 that you don’t have, focus on the $100 that you do. It is much like the parable of the three servents of a master who were entrusted with the master’s money while he was away. Two of the servants used the money to make more money for the master and they were rewarded with more responsibility and praise. But one who simply looked on the negative side and didn’t want to lose what was given him hid the money and had only that money to return to his master. His indecisiveness and laziness and fear caused him to lose what was to be his reward.

What reward are YOU missing because of your fear and laziness? You know that you will get out of something what you put into it and that you should not fear.  In fact, I recall reading a Zig Ziglar book, See You At The Top that stated the fear stand for False Expectations Appearing Real. Be fearless and you will improve your chance for success.

Have a GREAT day!

A Penny Saved…

Have you ever seen a penny on the ground and left it there thinking “it’s only a penny, it isn’t worth it”? You may want to think again.  The little things quickly add up to be big things, especially when there is compound interest involved.  If you were to save one dollar per week (which is a mere $0.14 a day), over a twenty year period, that would add up to be $3,276.14 (with a 10% compounded interest).  Divide that amount by 14 and it works out to be $234.01.  I can only imagine that if you were doing laundry and found $234 in a pocket, you wouldn’t throw it away.  Saving those pennies is actually worth it.  In reverse, if you were to charge a dollar or two a day on coffee and snacks, with the interest charged, it could end up costing you even more.  I found the calculator at David Bach’s site to be a real eye-opener. Now I know why people use coupons, attempt to find the lowest price on things — it all adds up!

 

Let’s just use a simple example.  Where I work during the day, we have vending machines that offer candy bars, soda, and the like.  If someone find themselves hungry for a snack (or skipped breakfast or lunch), they can always find refuge in the vending machine.  A candy bar costs $0.85 and a soda costs $1.10 (your findings may differ slightly).  $1.95 a day for five days equals $9.75 a week (let’s round it to $10 for simplicity sake.  If you were to take that $10 a week, invest it at 10% and compound it for twenty years, that candy bar and soda habit adds up to $32,761.30.  Now that is one expensive habit (and you though it was trivial).  We will explore little things that you can do to free up cash to help pay down your credit card debt.

Credit Card Debt

Oftentimes, when it comes to having debt pile up on a credit card, people don’t like to recognize the problem. This is the first step.  In successful12-step programs (such as Alcoholics Anonymous), the first step is always to just acknowledge that there is a problem that you have a challenge with credit card debt. This is quite frequently the biggest  stumbling block for someone who is seeing their credit card debt begin to control their very  lives.
The credit card companies will not assist you with this dilemma. They have the agenda of assisting you to accumulate increasing amounts of debt…and at your expense. It isn’t necessarily that they nasty or evil, but large consumer debt is their way of making money. The exorbitant money that the credit card companies make for the interest that you pay for your credit card debt (not to mention all of the accumulating fees) is cash that  goes to pay  corporate executives of these credit card companies and fund their luxurious lifestyle: houses, cars, jets, extravagant vacations. The audacity of these actions could make you want to extinguish the  (allegedly legal) scam that is a disease named credit card debt.

 

Let’s not beat around the bush.  Call it what it is:  Credit card debt is a high interest loan that doesn’t require you to fill out any lengthy forms beside the initial form to get the card. Once they issue a card to you, the credit card companies are more than happy to jack up your credit limit, which allows you to purchase more thing (and they will creep up the interest rate as well). Before long the debt level is astronomical and you continue to send them hundreds of dollars which is mostly interest and fees.

Money For My Life

Have you ever been caught up in living life that you haven’t been able to keep up with paying for it? Do you find that the minimum payments are getting larger and larger and you end up paying exorbitant fees that end up costing many times the cost of what you had originally charged and thought nothing about? Are you tired of living paycheck to paycheck?

Don’t worry, you are not alone. Bankruptcies are increasing as our economy gets weaker and weaker. There are many things that you can do: 1)stop using credit cards for frivolous things, 2) pay down your debt, and (ideally) 3) make more money. What I have found is that there is money to be made out there, and it isn’t that difficult to find.

I have tried to do it the hard way. I have worked two jobs at least half of my working life. This included doing jobs that others with a college degree wouldn’t have even considered doing. The jobs are out there. I have been on overnight cleaning crews, done third shift temporary work, worked nights and weekends as a cashier. These have helped in keeping my head largely above the deep waters of debt so I don’t get ahead, I just stay alive. But there are other ways. I have painstakingly researched many of the various methods that are floating out there and I believe I have found some of the best ways that aren’t difficult and you will get out of them what you put it, and then some.
