With Google delivering so much traffic, it is only normal to be eager to submit your page and have it indexed as soon as possible. However, submitting your page is not your only option, and it's not the best one. If this sounds strange keep reading.
Talking about its indexing process, Google says:
"We add thousands of new sites to our index each time we crawl the Web, but if you like, you may submit your URL as well. Submission is not necessary and does not guarantee inclusion in our index. Given the large number of sites submitting URLs, it's likely your pages will be found in an automatic crawl before they make it into our index through the URL submission form."
We can therefore draw two conclusions:
* 1. Submitting your site does not guarantee inclusion.
* 2. Most pages are found and indexed automatically, when Google crawls the web.
The Google folks have also made it clear that Google gives a page more importance when it is found through an automatic crawl. This can be easily verified when we consider how Google's PageRank system works: when page A links to page B, part of page A's PageRank trickles down to page B, increasing page B's PageRank (and, therefore, its importance). A manually submitted page will not enjoy this benefit.
Now that you know that manual submission is neither necessary nor the best way to go, what can you do to make Google find your pages?
The best way, at least in my personal experience, is to write an article on your area of expertise and submit it to popular article syndication sites like http://www.marketing-seek.com or http://www.ideamarketers.com . These sites will post your article, so that online publishers can use them for free in exchange for including your resource box at the end of the article. A resource box (a.k.a. bylines) is a small paragraph about yourself, written by you, which contains a link to your homepage.
In very little time, your article will show up in websites and ezines across the web. It will then be just a matter of time (usually days) before Google crawls those pages and finds your links. If you followed good web design practices and have included a link to a site map in your homepage, Google will follow it as soon as it finds your homepage, and all your pages will be indexed. It's as simple as that.
The most popular articles you can write are those that list a collection of tips related to your area of expertise. One of my most succesful articles is called "50 Surefire Web Design Tips", and it is nothing but a checklist of guidelines to follow when designing a website.
Another good way to help Google find your pages is to exchange links with other sites. Google will crawl those sites, find the links to your page, and add it to the index.
Finally, remember to optimize your pages before you try to get them listed, so that you have a better chance of ranking high in the search engine results pages (SERPs). After all, what good would it do to get your pages listed if nobody can find them?

Online Forums - Make New Friends And Business Contacts While You Learn
The net is a great place to find information on just about any subject. You can also use the net to socialize with people around the world. Online forums provide a vehicle where you can do both at the same time, with the added bonus of making some valuable new business contacts.
Researching a subject on your own can be time-consuming and lacks the social interaction aspect of the online forum. Depending on your topic, the voice of experience can enhance your own knowledge much more quickly than a dry, scholastic article you might read. For example, let's say you have recently started dabbling with painting. Although you enjoy painting, you don't know much about it. Search out some online forums for artists. You can lurk as a guest, checking out what members of a forum have to say. If one doesn't match your interests, move on. You'll soon find one with lively conversation and a mix of visitors more to your taste and style. Look for forums with a number of categories and an active membership. When you find one that satisfies you, register as a member so you can post to the site.
You can learn much on your subject matter if you only read the postings on these active online forums. However, you'll learn much more by contributing your own thoughts and asking questions of other members. Most people are pleased to share their knowledge with you. You can learn tricks of the trade from practicing painters that you may never find in a book. You'll soon find at least several people with whom you develop a rapport, fun to talk with, interesting and with good ideas and information you can use. This sort of interaction can serve as inspiration, sending you off to paint your next project with enthusiasm.
Online forums are good places to meet people from every walk of life and who share interests in common. Perhaps you'll meet a painting teacher, or another artist who has shown his work professionally. These people can be good business contacts in the future.
Once you have been a member for a while, online forums can be a bit like a social club too. You'll find that you look forward to spending an hour or two online, chatting with friends and learning new and exciting info on your chosen topic. Soon you'll have enough knowledge to have thoughtful discussions on some of the finer points. What type of brush is best to get a certain effect? How about color mixing? The exchange of ideas benefits all.
No matter what topic interests you, online forums are great virtual classrooms. Unlike formal classrooms, you're free to chat as much as you like. Give them a try. Online forums can be so much fun they might be positively addictive!

Working From Home Using The Internet
Enjoy Life to the Fullest
Let's face it: dividing your time between your family and growing a business or a lucrative profession is a full time job. Schedules are just difficult to follow and can often overlap. Unless you are an employee, you cannot say that from 8PM to 6AM I will attend to family matters. It just doesn't work that way.
So the best way to enjoy your family and having a hefty income is through working from home using the internet, wherein your gateway is the whole world. This is one of the several ways to earn a second income working from home. But this is not going to be a walk in the park. It's going to be VERY HARD if you're a newbie like me.
Since you made the decision to be home-based, you just have to be prepared for the worst. You will find yourself challenged by one way or the other, but that's part of the game. Conflicts with the wife and kids are common because the work place is just a few steps away from the family space. With no receptionist or "cordon sanitaire" to block the way, the easy accessibility of other family members to your work area can become a nightmare especially if you are faced with tremendous learning curve pressures.
Your Family
Every home based entrepreneur should first and foremost understand that it is easier to be working from home using the internet than it is to run a traditional business where you are continually emphasizing your boundaries. Remember, one of the biggest advantages to home employment is the opportunity to spend more time with the family. As the work-at-home parent dedicate more time to the business, particularly during the crucial start-up phase, it can have negative implications like little amount of money coming in to the business. On the positive side, a hardworking parent can send positive signals to the children. Children who are raised by entrepreneurs do tend to become entrepreneurs themselves. If you feel you can teach your family into parts of your business, by all means, do so. It might help them to better understand your needs and constraints. It is one thing for your spouse or children to see you completely stressed out; it's quite another for them to be see you super elated when that high-volume order comes. Especially for children, it is a good idea to demonstrate your commitment to your work. It's quite practical to enlist the help of those other capable adults because they can take some of the burdens of the business off your shoulders.
Working from Home. When Do You Stop?
One of the most common complaints against home-based entrepreneurs is that they sometimes never know when to stop. It's actually happening to me. Working from home using the internet is usually a tedious task. I usually check the computer for e-mails, opt-in visitors and other stuffs. After lunch and dinner, I will rush again to the computer to check emails or perform a hundred other business-related tasks, instead of interacting with the rest of the family members. Scenarios like these could lead to resentments among family members. This is especially true if the man is employed and still finding ways to earn a second income working from home. You simply don’t have the luxury of extra time. Remember, you need your family's support, even it may seem as if your family has no idea what pressures you're facing. There are countless ways for families to resolve this problem.
First, allot a reasonable working hours to the business, and allow the business to develop at a reasonable pace. You would not want to reach the situation when you would be made to choose between your business and your family. In my case it's no work during Saturdays and Sundays. During weekdays, I manage to squeeze two mornings for golf. In that way, I could say that I am leading a balanced life. Do what your wife likes doing most like accompanying her to the malls (I hate going to malls) or watch movies.
Another solution: compromise with your family to allow you to work for long hours for the first few months during your start-up phase and then reducing it as your business becomes more stable.
This problem should never be ignored. If you ignore the situation, you may cause larger problems in your business and your family, or worse, for both. No matter what your status is; employed or working from home using the internet or both, make use of your time wisely. Scheduling your time is the best way to make sure everything gets done. There is no better way than having your cake and eating it too.

Domain Names: How To Choose The Best One
“A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” – Lao Tzu
When starting an online presence, the first and most important step you will have to take is to register your own domain name. In the online world, your domain name serves two purposes – name and address. Your domain name can serve as your site name. It will also direct your visitors to the contents of your site or someone else’s. Hence, it is very important that you choose one properly.
If you are planning to launch a personal web site or one for your business, choosing a domain name like yourname.com or yourbusiness.com would be the logical step. However, there will be instances when the domain of your choice isn’t available and you will have to pick another one. In doing so, please take note of the simple guidelines below.
If you already have a theme for your site, it would help if the domain name contains words that are related to the site’s content. This makes it easier for you to market your site. Potential visitors will know what they’re getting into when clicking a link to your site.
You may also choose domain names that are short and easy to remember. A domain that is short and can be told in a few syllables will be easy to remember. It also helps if the name has a twist or if it sounds rather funny. Good examples of short domain names include one-word internet giants like Google, Amazon and Ebay.
You may also choose simple, ordinary words like business, computers or laptops. Although a number of these domains have already been registered, be on the lookout as they could easily bring in instant traffic for any site. This will be very useful if you are going to use any of those PPC programs for parked pages or even selling the domain name in the future. As an example, business.com was sold a few years ago for millions of dollars!
Remember that these days getting your own domain name no longer costs an arm and a leg. Gone are the days when companies would charge you 30 dollars or more. You now have a choice of sites that can register your domain names for less than ten dollars and still provide you with lots of free stuff. Some companies are even offering domain names at peanut prices if coupled by other purchases like web hosting. Of course, this is great news for anyone considering building a web site or purchasing a domain name as an investment.

Save Space and Time With File Compressing Programs
Compressing of files is very handy when it comes to uploading and downloading files from internet. Apart from emailing and surfing, downloading files is the most popular activity among the net users. There are many places from where you can download files from. It could be from the software libraries, ftp directories, MP3 sites and also from the files sent to our email as attachments.
Compression of files has become such a crucial activity to transfer files from one computer to another computer either on internet or directly. With file compression you can either compress a single file or a number of files into one compressed folder. This will help you to reduce the file or folder size for easy transfers. The compressed files can be transferred faster because of their smaller sizes.
There are many file compressing programs available in the market but the most popular of the software is WinZip for windows and Stuffit for Mac platform computers. There are many software to compress the file sizes but they are not as popular as the WinZip for windows and Stuffit for Mac operating systems.
With the compression software, big files can also be compressed and fragmented into smaller files without losing the data. There are many free uploading websites which allow a certain uploading size limits to the free users. You can easily upload the fragmented and compressed files to such websites. When someone downloads all the compressed parts and double-clicks on the first file, the files get joined again and the data is never lost.
File compression is very easy with the compression software. You will need to right click on the file and you will get an option to create the compressed file depending upon the software you use. Normally the compressed file gets created in the same folder where the original file is found. However, you do have the option to customize the target folder to collect your compressed file.
Decompressing is the process where you will extract the compressed files in order to access of view the file. You can do this process with 2 simple methods. You could create a new folder and then select all the archived or the compressed files and drag them to the new folder.
Another method is the right click method. When you right click on the compressed file, you will get the option to extract the files. Again it could just extract the files to the same folder where the original file is found by default or you could even specify the folder where you want the extracted files to save.
Compression of files or folders will help you in 2 ways. First advantage is that you will save space on your hard drive or on your webserver. The second advantage is that the files can be transferred more easily since the size is reduced.
Image files and document files can be even reduced to almost 1/10th their original size. This makes the file transfer so very smoother and lighter. It is simply unimaginable to find people using the computer and not having the compression software installed on their comps. Normally, the compression software is the first installed applications after loading the operating system itself.-

Laptops Vs PDAs - The Pros and Cons
Do you know the Major Differences between Laptops and PDA's?
When most people hear the term 'laptop' they immediately think 'mini computer', the same can be said about the term 'PDA' being a 'glorified address book'. In reality these items have become essential for students, businesspeople, and the average housewife for keeping track of everything from appointments to phone numbers and addresses. While laptops and Personal Digital Assistants (PDA's) share many of the same features, it is important to compare the two and determine exactly what you will be using it for and the device that will fill that need.
PDA
Advantages
Lightweight
Downloadable to PC
Fewer Programs to sort through
Lightweight
Disadvantages
Less Memory
Smaller Screen
Laptop
Advantages
More Memory
Larger Screen
Disadvantages
Bulky
Many files to sort through
As you can see, it would be much easier to walk into class or a business meeting with a PDA in your pocket than a laptop in your carrying case. While having less memory may seem to be a major disadvantage at first, in reality you will be better able to find the program you need much faster than if you had to search and wonder where you saved it on the laptop.
In addition to the normal features of note-taking, to-do lists, names and addresses, and calendars, most PDA's also offer email, web, and cell phone services. This allows the PDA user to download the notes from the PDA quickly to a laptop or personal computer (PC), research the internet, and talk on the phone. You can do the same things from your laptop by using instant messaging with audio but unless you use headphones (another bulky item to haul around) the entire room will hear your conversations.
Music versus Images. Both features are available on PDA's and Laptops with pro's and con's for each. If you are at home it is much easier to use your laptop to play your favorite songs and continue with what you were doing; but if you are anywhere else, a bus for instance, it would be kind of silly to haul out your laptop, set it up, search for the song you want, and play it. The PDA, being easier to transport, makes listening to music much easier, however, the small screen on the PDA will not allow you to fully enjoy the images and pictures sent to you. Memory is also a problem for the PDA when it comes to storing your images; a laptop offers more memory, a bigger screen, and more detail.
The differences between PDA's and Laptops become smaller every day with laptops becoming more compact and lightweight and PDA's becoming more powerful and having more features. It is important to weigh all the advantages and disadvantages, pro's and con's, and types of uses for each device before making a decision on which one to use. Making a list of how you will be using the device is a great place to start, and then choose the one that best suits your needs.

Short-Term Solution Components to the Financial Crisis
Well, we certainly hear a lot about the mighty corporations, their employment base and strength and what it means to our economy. But make no mistake this great nation's citizens are also gainfully employed in small businesses. In fact, over 70% of our work force is employed in small business and 10% of our population owns their own small business.
One thing we can do right now is help our small businesses survive and thrive is to remove the barriers and insane costs caused by the bureaucracy. We need immediate relaxing of regulation for small businesses. I propose a "Red Magic Marker" committee in every city, county, and state, that will go through the immense amount of debris of rules and regulations and red-lining them for deletion.
Merely freeing up credit markets is not enough, offering tax incentives is not going to help much, as most small businesses are making very little right now anyway. Additionally, very few small businesses are considering buying new equipment or expanding right now. So, even though there maybe few opportunities to borrow it makes no difference, as the small businesses are cutting back to the bare bones.
What does this mean? It means not only are they not expanding, they are laying off their workers, and preparing to hunker down for a much longer recessionary period than once thought. Including all of 2009 and most of 2010, and whereas, the recession may not last that long, it does appear that the small business community isn't taking any chances.
Want to fix the economy? You had better start with small businesses first. So, think on this.

Want to fix the economy? You had better start with small businesses first. So, think on this.
How to Select the Best Blog Hosting Provider
A blog hosting provider is a company or a person that “hosts” your blog on his or her own server space. When you wish to set up your own blog, choosing the blog hosting provider is probably one of the most confusing tasks.
Since blogging has become a business where companies hire bloggers to tackle different subjects ranging from consumer electronics to the best movies of all time, choosing the best blog hosting provider is the most important factor to be successful in a blogging career.
When shopping around for blog hosting providers, you can narrow down your search by dividing them into three categories – exclusive blog hosting providers, web hosting providers and web hosting resellers. Exclusive blog hosting providers and web hosting providers offer both paid and free services.
Blog Hosting Providers: Know Your Options as a Blogger
When choosing a blog hosting provider, you have to determine your blogging needs and preferences as well as the intended purpose of the blog. Some people create blogs as a personal journal, while other people create blogs to make money. Determining your intended purpose will be a factor in choosing the blog hosting provider that will meet your needs.
If you’re not familiar with HTML or other encoding, you could look for blog hosting providers that offers simple, no-setup interfaces for blogs. However, if you want to have total control by completely customizing your blog, you could search for blog hosting providers that offer unlimited features and options for bloggers like you.
Unlike free web hosting providers, blog hosting providers can give more chances of a blogger’s exposure compared to paid blog hosting, especially if you wish to set up a blog to make money. This is because popular blog hosting providers, which are on the top list of a search engine result, can give your blog exposure to a wider audience because of the automatic encoding included in the service.
On the other hand, when you choose to host your blog with web hosting providers, you will be in control of the look, template, interface, add-ons to include and other features you wish to include on your blog. However, when choosing web hosting services rather than blog hosting providers, make sure that you have basic knowledge of HTML, different encoding methods and techniques to market your blog site.
Simply put, choosing the blog hosting provider depends on how well you can create, manage and market your blog site. If you’re an IT-savvy person and you want total control over your blog site, then go with a paid web hosting provider. However, if you want to blog to make money, to create your personal journal or to obtain instant fame without encoding or HTML knowledge, then your best bet is to go with blog hosting providers.
