Binserver Introduces "TipIt"(beta) Voluntary Micro-Payment and Advertising System that Creates One-Click RSS Delivered Functionality for blogs and Other Digital Content

Nashville, TN (PRWEB) January 25, 2006

Binserver [http://www.binserver.com is in the business of mining unbundled media – a trend toward the elimination of middlemen – such as but not limited to websites, networks, publishers and record labels. The company believes voluntary micro-payments are an incremental step in the creation of sustainable systems for free and unbundled content on the web and elsewhere.

While the web is leading a charge toward unbundled media its catching on in other mediums such as TV where content has been inextricably shackled to networks. According to the CEO, John Bransford, the future is in distribution that unties digital content while still retaining all the allowable rights of ownership including compensation. They believe all forms of digital content will be unbundled – including video.

“I sat on a blue ribbon committee at HBO that was charged with predicting when video on demand would be reality and how to capitalize rather than impeding adoption. HBO has largely implemented our recommendations and, to me, a perfect example of how these companies should prepare for an unbundled media world.”

“Grasping the details of unbundled content is important to fully understanding our plans,” says Bransford. Terry Heaton, a respected media analyst, as a body of research and work in the area. His is to date the best analysis of unbundled media some of which can be found here http://donatacom.com/papers/pomo48.htm.

They started with http://www.Nashvilesnews.net intending to offer citizens generated content. Bransford says, “we worked for nearly a year trying to create an RSS based CMS for automatically formatting and publishing user generated material. That project had some success however things did not gel until we found Marcin Konicki a crack RSS developer who had been working on a similar system.”

“Marcin is the best hands on RSS guy going” says Bransford. “One time I was having a devil of a time trying to subscribe to the CNN headline news podcast. Marcin diagnosed the problem and CNN made the changes. Now it works.”

The second part of our approach to unbundled media is manifest in TipIt. We think content has to be compensated and its in everyones interest to create multiple pathways to that end. Tipit is a simple concept thats yet to be properly engaged. To get a fast idea go to a demo here http://TipIt.ws or here http://nashvillesnews.net/node/54594 then mouse over the TipIt icon.

Its different from the standard Pay Pal tip jar. TipIt is not bound to a website and allows an unlimited number of content owners to be aggregated on a site but paid directly. The usual tip jar forces all payment to the website which is not feasible in a world where the publisher doesnt know and doesnt want to deal with tracking every site that might subscribe to his feed. The TipIt, when enabled by the content producers, can stay with the content wherever it is fed using RSS 2.0. Content publishers can find more information on the companys information site http://www.TipIt.ws and blog tipit.wordpress.com .

The next iteration will be what they call the Info TipIt. An appreciative reader can pay the writer without spending money by using the TipIt to view an ad. Again they mouse over to read an ad and the action is recorded – i.e. that they did it and the content is reimbursed. “From an advertisers perspective it promotes a cost per desired action achieved for which they are willing to pay a premium. The content gets compensated and the website receives promotion from our main site if they want.”

Executive Protection Comes To Blogs

Washington, DC (PRWEB) February 26, 2007

The Executive Protection industry today joined the world of web logs with the introduction of “Executive Protection” an Executive Protection industry oriented web log. The web log, “protectivesecurity.wordpress.com” will discuss emerging issues, trends, and news of interest to the Executive Protection community and the general public.

The idea for an Executive Protection industry specific web log is the idea of Bruce Alexander, President of All Source Consulting Group LLC. Mr. Alexander is an Executive Protection specialist with extensive Executive Protection experience and expertise in both the federal government and corporate sectors.

Mr. Alexander said that his years of experience in Executive Protection convinced him that the time had arrived to develop an Executive Protection web log. “The Executive Protection industry has expanded significantly since 9/11. With the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, the public has been exposed to almost nightly news and images of dignitaries and government officials being protected by teams of protective security specialists in war zones and elsewhere. This is a good time to start an Executive Protection web log as a community of interest for the Executive Protection industry and to educate the public on Executive Protection. The purpose of the web log is to provide a forum to discuss and analyze trends, tactics and share news of interest for the Executive Protection community.

Alexander added that there is a great need to present Executive Protection as a professional service in comparison to popular misconceptions associated with “bodyguards,” a term Alexander said he avoids because of its limiting and often, negative connotations. “The true professionals I know don’t guard bodies. They provide a professional service of protection to exacting standards that consists of much more than serving as a guard” said Alexander.

A review of recent posts on http://protectivesecurity.wordpress.com indicated some rather unique and interesting posts. Among the more notable entries was one addressing the pending deployment of Prince Harry to Iraq and how to protect the Prince in a war zone. Another post discussed bomb resistant trash containers as part of physical security measures for executives. One post discussed how Google Earth can be used to to help develop Executive Protection plans.

About Bruce Alexander:

Bruce Alexander is the President of All Source Consulting Group LLC, a Homeland Security services provider. He has over 20 years of Executive Protection experience in both the U.S. Government and the private sector with experience in the U.S., Europe, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East. He has served as a Special Agent assigned to protective detail the Secretary of Energy, a Special Deputy U.S. Marshal, and an Instructor at the U. S. Department of State’s Diplomatic Security Training Center. He has managed and directed several protective details while serving as an officer in the U.S. Army Military Police Corps. He is currently a consultant to the U.S. Department of State’s Foreign Service Institute for personal security.

NEW PROGRAM BREAKS GROUND FOR MONEY MAKING BLOGS Business in Internet Marketing Teaches Users to Earn With their Blog

(PRWEB) December 19, 2007

It seems that everyone has a money making internet strategy and they all promise great returns. But how many actually deliver? Jack Lan’s MFB-Money From Blog system delivers. A complete system that helps users learn how to make money with their blog, Money From Blog offers solid instructions that anyone can follow and make money, even if they don’t know a thing about blogging. People who are looking for a business in internet marketing can readily apply this information and begin drawing an income from their blog. The Money From Blog system offers hands on training through intensive, informative materials that are part of a system that really works.

Blogging is the next big thing and has emerged, almost overnight, as not only a great way to network and communicate ideas, but also as one of the easiest, fastest ways to increase web site traffic and boost search engine rankings. When this is done with the right formula, all of those hits and higher search engine rankings convert to earnings. People who are “in the know” can earn hundreds, even thousands of extra dollars from their blog. What is most striking about the Money from Blog system is that a person can accomplish this regardless of whether they have a business online, a brick and mortar business or even if they do not have a business at all.

The Money From Blog Internet Coaching system is backed by some of the most intense research in the industry. When blogging first emerged onto the landscape of the world wide web, it was an endeavor that was pursued by the kings and queens of the very tech savvy and trendy. The creators of the Money From Blog system read every item that they could get their hands on regarding blogging and business in internet marketing. As they conducted their research, it was the research itself that helped to form the system of Money from Blog. What the creators found was that there was very little data regarding how blogging could potentially be used in business. They also found insufficient information on the step by step process that showed people how to make money from their blog.

The strategies that are outlined in the system have been used by the creators themselves. Even though they can not physically be there to hold each user’s hand as they strive to achieve success, they do provide through the Money From Blog MFB system worksheets, checklists, flowcharts, monitor charts and videos. This makes it much easier for the user to follow and implement in their own internet marketing and blogging. They provide simple, clearcut instructions that nearly anyone can follow, meaning that nearly anyone can succeed.

The Money From Blog system can help users build a powerful blog on any topic with WordPress and they can teach them how to generate at least 200 unique readers every day without making any monetary investment. Special inclusions such as 10 Unrevealed Traffic Generations that are used by the top leaders in the blogging industry and 10 Most Profitable Monetization Methods that can turn blogs into instrument for generating income. There is potential with a blog for making money and people who are interested in starting a business in internet marketing can truly profit.

The system includes videos that are created by a blogger who is successful and making money with his blogs. In the videos he will impart his secrets with those who purchase the Money from Blog system. Additionally, there are included 24 videos that are hands on, coaching users at their own pace that guarantee success in the blogging business. What’s more, they are only available through the Money for Blog system.

There are thousands of dollars that are lost each year by people who throw it away at inferior products in the hopes of learning how to earn money on the internet. The bad press that is currently in the media does not help the case, but people still click that button and type in that credit card number. Maybe this time it will take, they think, hope against hope, only to be let down. Jack Lan, however, made a dramatic decision to no longer be a victim of the schemes and scams online. He developed the Money from Blog system and spent a countless hours during the 12 month development time to create a product that spoke to the user and delivered real results. Lan put together all the information that he had found, researched and compiled to create a system that does deliver and does make money for the user. Users who want to make money with their blog or who wish to start a business in internet marketing can certainly benefit from the system.

Users of the Money from Blog system will learn the fundamentals of blogging, the history of the blog business, how they can set up a WordPress blog with money making capabilities, how to create a system that they can maintain and keep up with and how to generate traffic with many new visitors on a daily basis. They will also gain coaching in the latest web 2.0 techniques that will drive traffic to their site and learn advanced strategies that are the well kept secrets of the top internet marketers.

“The Money From Blog system is a no fail, win-win for the people who purchase and use it.” Says Jack Lan, “It is simple to follow so it is simple to begin making big bucks just through their blog.” For those who want to start a business in internet marketing and make a nice supplemental income or a full time income, the Money From Blog Coaching Club is the answer. The Money From Blog system can be found at Learn From Money From Blog Coaching Club and there are currently deep discounts for purchase of the entire system and accessories. The wait for a great internet income is over, enter the era of the Money From Blog Coaching Club.

Marketing Strategist Blogs 50 Ways to Promote an iPhone App

Kenosha, Wis. (Vocus) July 9, 2009

Apple celebrates the one-year anniversary of the App Store this week. With more than 60,000 Apps accumulated in that time, the launch of a new App can easily get lost. That is why GS Marketing Group, Inc., a leading App developer, assembled a list of 50 (and still growing) ways to promote iPhone Apps, available as a blog article at TimCascio.Wordpress.com.

“iPhone Apps are a new addition to an integrated marketing plan, and I think people are unsure where to begin their marketing and promotional efforts,” said author Timothy Cascio, managing partner at GS Marketing Group. “Fundamental marketing rules apply, such as defining your target audience and identifying how to reach them. However, this medium requires insight as to what’s technically possible within Apps, how the iPhone App Store works and how social media can be leveraged to spread the word. My hope is that the blog is a practical guide for accomplished developers and expert marketers alike.”

For existing brands, a close look at current customer touch points can uncover a number of easy-to-implement, but often overlooked, promotional ideas. For new brands, publicity, social media and sponsorship opportunities play a larger role in the overall campaign.

Whether an existing brand or a new one, a mobile audience is at times more receptive to marketing messages than others. When and where mobile users spend their time in a captive environment is an outlet for consideration. Examples include advertising within complementary Apps, themed podcasts and at transit stations.

Publicity, promotions and advertising should coincide with the pre-release and release of Apps. The best shot at earning a Top Seller position within an iPhone App Store category is when all marketing efforts leverage one another.

Marketers are reminded that nothing holds back the full potential of an App like poor ratings and reviews. Mobile Apps require a commitment to marketing and ongoing product development to ensure long-term success. Acting upon insightful feature requests submitted by users will keep customers coming back and lure new ones into the fold.

Rob Walch, host of the popular Today in iPhone podcast said of the article, “This is, without a doubt, the most thorough list I’ve seen talking about different ways to promote your App. A must read.”

Cascio’s blog and the ”Mobile Marketing: 50 Ways to Promote Your iPhone App” article may be viewed at http://TimCascio.Wordpress.com .

100 Blogs in 100 Minutes: Are You Multi-blogging?

(PRWEB) July 12, 2005

Blog-zilla, King of Content… as if waiting for a powerful monster to arise from the sea, bloggers and entrepreneurs have been lining up in great anticipation of a new web-based multi-blogging service called Blog-zilla. When Blog-zilla steps ashore later this month, bloggers will no longer be bound to one or two blogs, rather they will enter an age of multi-blogging where with nominal extra effort, running 100 blogs might become the norm.

“Will this breathe fire into the communication and business needs of thousands of bloggers, entrepreneurs, and online businesses?” “You bet”, says Dan Hollings, the man in the rubberized suit behind Blog-zilla. “There are people that make their living online by targeting niche markets and blogs make that easier. Some are small businesses, others run home businesses; and there are many that supplement their income through affiliate programs and contextual ads, like Google’s Adsense program. Blogs have become an important tool for all these people, yet maintaining even one blog on a regular basis is time consuming.”

After struggling for months to run several different blogs and being overwhelmed with maintenance and content creation challenges, Mr. Hollings dreamed up the idea of a tool that would simplify and multiply the process. First he checked with the big blog providers to confirm they would allow for multiple blogs (they all did, and most were free); then he set out to create the multi-blogging tool.

Dan’s hands-on experience in web system design and internet marketing all came into play as the Blog-zilla idea was slowly hatched and went into beta testing. As anticipated, the results were monstrous. The first week, Dan posted unique content to 100 blogs, and again the next week, and the next. What used to take 1 hour to write and post to a single blog, now took two hours, but it was posted to 100 blogs.

“We’re not talking duplicate content here” stresses Mr. Hollings, “Blog-zilla is much smarter than that. We are talking about unique content generated by using original content as the basis yet personalizing each post to the specific blog and it’s niche target audience.” Let’s say a mortgage broker or lender wants to run a blog about the best ways to shop and find a good home loan. He or she might write weekly articles or tips that are posted to a “Mortgage Tips” blog. Yet, a customer shopping for a mortgage or home loan would certainly prefer to read tips that were targeted for their specific area, state or region, right? “Mortgage Tips for Home Buyers in California” would have a strong appeal to people in California, yet the loan shopper in Nevada would tend to like the blog: “Finding The Best Home Loan in Nevada.” It’s all about targeting.

The question for bloggers is simple: Would you invest twice the time to prepare your content for Blog-zilla, if when you clicked the “post to my blog” button, it posted your content in a unique yet targeted manner to 10, 20, 30… or 100 blogs? If the answer is yes, Blog-zilla is for you.

Blog-zilla is a web-based program that works tirelessly to help you reach your internet marketing, blogging, and revenue goals. It multiplies your capabilities so that you may create lots of quality content. As your assistant, it makes publishing highly targeted content for your readership easy. It automates all posting and with your help creates ‘intelligent’ non-duplicate content. If desired, Blog-zilla will also post or incorporate RSS feeds to embellish your blogs’ content.

Blog-zilla will post to: Blogger.com, WordPress, TypePad, MovableType and Blog Harbor… any combination, any number of blogs you wish to set up.

Just as in the movies, one might expect that Blog-zilla would have a co-star. After all, posting to your blogs is only half the equation. Blogs need to be accessible to internet searchers and the technology that tells the world that you’ve just made a new post is called a “Ping.”

Pinging lets dozens of services (like search engines, tagging systems and blog aggregators) know you’ve updated your blog which can significantly increase traffic to your blog. Typically after a ping goes out, you’ll find dozens of search engine spiders crawling your blog site within 24 hours.

These pinging services are designed specifically for tracking and connecting blogs with people. However, to manually contact every pinging service each time you post is too time consuming.

So, while Blog-zilla helps create and post your blog content; he calls upon the help of “Ping Kong” to send a PING to each service letting them know you’ve updated all your blogs.

Some say it’s a jungle out there and blogs have become the king of the jungle. We agree, but when it comes to multi-blogging, Blog-zilla is the “King of Content.”

100 Blogs in 100 Minutes: Are You Multi-blogging?

JustArticles.com Reveals the Truth about the Role of Blogs in Internet Marketing and Web Site Promotion

Columbus, IN (PRWEB) January 27, 2006

Blogs are taking the Internet by storm and for good reason. Blogs make it easy to publish content to the web on a regular basis and the Internet is all about content. By publishing articles on a regular basis to a blog webmasters increase the overall size of their site, which contributes to better search engine placement and page rank.

No one knows web content like the blog design experts at http://www.JustArticles.com. According to Dustin Cannon of JustArticles.com, blogs are the perfect content management solution because they allow for effortless publishing and are indexed by the search engines quickly. In addition to keyword articles written on demand a large part of our web content business is integrated content based Internet marketing which primarily includes custom blog design and publishing as well as press release and article distribution. We are finding that the results for our clients who implement custom search engine optimized blogs are nothing short of amazing. Their article pages are being indexed very quickly resulting in new search engine results and consequently more traffic. Blogs are really an essential part of our content based Internet marketing packages, says Dustin.

Although JustArticles.com offers blog designs using software from Blogger.com as well as wordpress.org, JustArticles.com recommends and prefers to use Googles Blogger.com software for custom blog designs because of the ability to create custom templates that perfectly match a clients web site. According to Dustin, Blogger.com blogs create are super easy to use and create clean, easily optimized HTML pages and are fully customizable in contrast to some of the other blog design applications that are PHP based and only allow for head and footer customization.

Initially, some of our clients express concern over Blogger.com blogs in response to information they have seen in SEO and webmaster forums about the limitations of Blogger.com. Aside from the ability to easily create categories, Blogger.com does not have any limitations from my perspective. In fact, the blog design experts at JustArticles.com can create blogs using Blogger.com that have categories. One of the concerns also has to do with rumors that Google will shut down Blogger.com blogs without reason. The problem with this concern is that most people have not heard the whole story and probably do not really understand the problem. If anyone has had their blog shut down it is maybe because they were involved in unacceptable marketing practices like link spamming. Regardless of blog software you use if you are operating a blog or site with nothing but affiliate links and no real content then your site may be penalized by not being indexed so the end result is the same. This can happen regardless of what blog software a site is using. Google appears to be cracking down on these practices and for good reason. Web site that are filled with nothing but affiliate links and pay per ads click run the risk of not being indexed by the search engines. There is nothing wrong with affiliate links and pay per click. They just cannot be the sole purpose of a site or the site will not be successful. That is why blogs are so effective. Blog owners who are playing by the rules have nothing to worry about. Blogs are for publishing content that is informative and valuable to web search visitors. If webmasters will focus on doing that then the traffic will take care of itself. Publish content to your blog and this will bring in the traffic. Doing Internet marketing right leads to long term success and profits.

Since taking over JustArticles.com in January 2005, Dustin has taken the site from a page rank of 1 to a 5. Traffic and sales are exploding for this king of web content. Maybe that is why they can guarantee client’s success with their content based Internet marketing programs. “We essentially promise increased traffic to our clients within 90 days by a money back guarantee.” says Dustin. “It is this desire to provide value to our clients that has given us the edge.”

Network Solutions

Herndon, VA (PRWEB) March 12, 2007

The use of blogging in business has become a popular and successful trend in the online marketing world recently. And now, Network Solutions has added free blogs to its Unix-based hosting packages to help small and medium-sized businesses connect with customers, boost sales, enhance brand visibility, and improve existing or future product offerings. In a few easy to follow steps, customers can set up and begin using a blog within their existing hosting package.

The popularity of blogs has risen in recent years, with Technorati currently tracking 70 million blogs. As blogs have entered the mainstream, business blogs are being used to complement a small business’ Web site. While a Web site generally provides important information about the organization and its products and services, more often that not — it’s quite static. A business blog allows small and medium-sized businesses to build and maintain a steady stream of communication with customers and prospects.

“Business blogs are a great way for small businesses to open and maintain meaningful dialog with their customers,” explains Jeff Grosman, Senior Vice President for Product Marketing & Management with Network Solutions. “Via their blogs, owners can pose questions regarding their products and services and gain real-time customer feedback and insights. This is key because customers and prospects like to know that their opinions matter.”

The use of blogging in business is also beneficial because a blog that is updated frequently and is rich with relevant content and links can also help increase the search engine ranking of a business’ core Web site. Search engines favor frequent updates, trackbacks (links to a blog from other bloggers) and the navigation structure of blogs. Savvy marketers will make their core Web sites easily accessible from their blog site.

“An active blog gives visitors more reasons to repeatedly visit both the blog and the business Web site. This added exposure can lead to increased traffic, and the increased traffic can increase search engine rankings, which all lead to higher sales for the Website owner,” explains Grosman.

"Pimp My Widget:" Marketers and Podcasters Customize Multi-Feed Podcast Player for Social Media Services, Websites and Blogs

Los Altos, CA (PRWEB) August 14, 2008

Personal Life Media, Inc. a publisher of lifestyle podcasts and blogs for people on the leading edge of culture, made available today a patent-pending audio player widget that distributes multiple podcast RSS feeds. Web widgets are the small modules of content or advertising that a Web user can add to a social network profile, blog or personal start page. The player is free and can be customized by color and size to match any web page or blog as well as to propagate shows in Facebook, MySpace and twenty other sites such as iGoogle and WordPress WordPress using Gigya’s Wildfire widget distribution technology. Users can visually fly back and forth between album art for each show in the widget by controlling “show flow” with a mouse. Most importantly, the player can be branded with a corporate logo for an integrated look and feel.

Marketers who want to distribute germane podcasting content to their site visitors and their social media “friends” use Personal Life Media’s podcast widget to create a sticky branded consumer experience. As each new episode debuts, it automatically gets pushed to the marketer’s “widget.” Any brand can exclusively sponsor episodic podcast content in a customized player that showcases their unique marketing messages. Fans can grab the player and put it on their site, blog or social site, carrying the marketer’s logo and audio ads along with the content. Podcasters often produce multiple shows and now can aggregate their offerings into a single widget freely distributed by their fans.

The widget creator at http://personallifemedia.com/widget is free for any company, podcaster or content fan. Fees may be involved if a marketer prefers to offer shows from Personal Life Media that exclusively feature only their brand’s messages. Otherwise, the shows will feature existing sponsor’s ads.

Even the Milkman Blogs

Cape Town, South Africa (PRWEB) March 24, 2006

To counter the negative posts on dairy we see all over the Internet and supply the consumer as well as the dairy industry at large with info – from the perspective of a dairy scientist – Leon the Milkman has put up a blog.

The blog is of course dairy-related and discusses everything from cheese to dairy science calculations and processes.

The idea is to transfer knowledge in a way that is accessible to dairy workers and to the consumer. To get off to a good start Leon is offering a free downloadable dairy dictionary to all that register as a milkfan on either http://www.dairy-info.org or http://www.LeontheMilkman.com.

Leon the Milkman says that he find it quite easy to get new issues to discuss on his blog – he just writes about everything that happens during his workday.

He finds blogs to be the easiest way to get his ideas on the Internet and also likes that he can easily change the template and look of his site, using the WordPress Blog format. This comes in handy with changing seasons or wanting to change the blog’s look for a special holiday, like making everything green for St. Patrick’s Day.

Plugins also abound for blogs and make it easy to add pictures, audio, and other special features to your blog.

Leon finds blogs to be a great way to do generic dairy marketing and says he will welcome input from the dairy industry in this regard. Dairy processors and dairy farmers are welcome to visit Leon the Milkman’s blog and post comments or to contact Leon as this is one of his passions – spreading the good word on dairy.

The dairy industry can feel free to refer consumers to the blog as it has a search function that will answer a lot of common consumer questions on cheese and everything dairy-related.

Well all said and done – Leon the Milkman is happy – and that is all that matters.

“I find it so easy to just sit back at the end of a day and writing something short for the blog – it even helps to get perspective – much like writing in a journal would.” Leon philosophizes, milk in hand.

Yes, he blogs in the evening, because mornings are for fresh milk deliveries of course.

Great New Blogging Tool for Blogs and Bloggers

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 15, 2008

Yougler launches a new blogger profile tool and plugin for bloggers. Using Yougler, bloggers can quickly create a profile page about themselves and their blog. This profile includes a contact form where readers can forward email. Bloggers then simply embed the link to their profile page in their posts. Readers can click on the link to read background information on the blog or the author or to send the author an email. It’s that simple.

To make it even easier, there is also a Yougler plugin that works with WordPress blogs. By installing this plugin, a blogger’s profile link is automatically appended to each post.

Many bloggers do not leave contact links with their posts. This is not because they don’t want feedback but because they don’t want spam. In order to get spam-free feedback from readers, bloggers must construct special, contact pages on their blogs using server-side programming scripts. Many bloggers would rather not spend the time, trouble, or expense of doing that. Says Yougler creator Pete Wingard, “Some bloggers give out their email address but substitute ‘at’ for ‘@’ like john (at) mymaildomain.com. This inexpensive approach defeats spam bots but doesn’t look very professional.” It also requires readers to type the email address into a mail application.

Yougler profiles are a spam-free way to communicate on the Internet because the email address is hidden from spammers. And having a Yougler Profile Page is as effective and professional looking as building custom contact me pages but a whole lot less trouble.

Yougler also allows bloggers to create multiple profiles. Whether it is multiple authors on one blog or one writer with multiple blogs, Yougler allows users to tailor each profile specifically to each author and blog. Yougler can then forward all messages to as few as one email address.

Yougler is free. Yougler is also simple to setup and use. For bloggers there is no longer any reason not to give your readers a way to contact you.

Yougler is the creation of Pete Wingard. He can be reached at his Yougler Profile Page http://www.yougler.com/pete.

Our colorfully graphic mortgage and loan calculator adds consumer interest and functionality to your site, Olevskiy said. Consumers nationwide are still looking for their best deal, and the calculator illustrates almost instantly whether a new mortgage or loan will work for them.

A key advantage of the widget is that the calculator displays its results on your page. The graphic display appears above the content of your site, so users never leave your page, Olevskiy said. Your content is still visible through a transparent overlay that frames the calculator display. Once users finish with the calculator, your content returns to the top layer. As Web authors, we know how critical it can be to keep traffic on your site. We designed the widget with that important factor in mind.

The straightforward installation features copy-and-paste JavaScript code for Websites. It is simply added between the body tags of the page code. If added to a template, the calculator form will appear on all your pages automatically.

Blog owners can download a zip file and unzip it into their WordPress wp-content/plugins directory, then activate it through the Plugins menu.

Cincopa Redefines the Way Users Display and Share Media on their Websites and Blogs

Case Study to Consider Before Posting Blogs

Wilmington, MA (PRWEB) November 16, 2005

Blogs are quickly making their way into mainstream consumer companies. Once the domain of high tech businesses and political websites, blogs are now commonplace on the web. Some consumer products companies that are using blogs to communicate with their customers include GM, Stonyfield Farms, and Ice.com

One recent estimate suggests that 80,000 blogs are created every day. Blogs can be used for many reasons including announcing new products or sales, creating an ongoing conversation with customers, posting the thoughts of the company’s CEO, or even creating buzz with controversial postings. While businesses can use blogs as a way to enhance their brand, they need to do so carefully. Even though blogs can be created in less than 5 minutes, a great deal of thought needs to be given to them, more than might seem necessary at first glance. My companys experience with creating a blog can hopefully serve others well.

With all the talk recently about blogs, we wanted to position our flower company, Beyond Blossoms (http://www.beyondblossoms.com), as on the cutting edge as more than just another place to buy flowers. We wanted to start a blog to serve as a place to provide unusual and interesting information about all things floral, from flower gardening tips to art exhibits featuring flowers, to fun facts about flowers. It would be a way to interact with customers and hopefully provide content they find informative, useful, and even funny.

We initially thought that getting the blog up and running would be easy, but it quickly became apparent that there were many issues to be thought out. Some of these included whether or not to encase the blog within our existing website or create a separate domain to house it, who would write the flower blog, and what to talk about. Additionally, the company wrestled with what blog platform to use such as Blogger, pMachine, Typepad, or WordPress. Ultimately, we decided to bring in a consultant to assist us in the design and development of the blog, blogging expert Paul Chaney, from internet marketing firm Radiant Marketing Group (http://www.radiantmarketinggroup.com). Besides designing the blog to fit in with the existing template of the business using WordPress, Paul also helped generate awareness by publicizing the flower blog on various blog search engines such as Technorati and creating a press release to announce it. He also contacted webmasters of other blogs who share similar themes to ours to include a link to us in their blogroll.

What to write about was a hot topic of conversation in our company. We decided that the blog should not be a blatant sales pitch with its only purpose being to advertise the company. The flower blog would serve to communicate our company’s love for flowers and deepen our brand’s connection with customers. The more interesting content we can provide, the more enjoyable our site will become to visitors, and this should help convert some visitors into buyers.

Ideally a blog should fit in with the brand personality of the rest of the company. If our website was dull, then readers might not understand the blogs purpose or context, but because the website is lighthearted in tone, we can write about a wide variety of topics on the blog. Recent posts include ones about a new computer game about flowers, Englands effort to improve public bathrooms with fresh flowers, how to plant fall flowers, and rare orchids found in Idaho. Do not underestimate the resources needed for blogging. Posting on a daily basis takes a significant time commitment.

We looked to other companies as examples of how to use a blog that fits in with the brand. Stonyfield Farms (http://www.stonyfieldfarms.com/weblog/) features 4 blogs to talk about topics that don’t directly relate to its core yogurt product, such as “Baby Babble, a blog for parents to talk about their babies and “Strong Women Daily News.” Here, the company is using its brand position as an environmentally responsible company to entice its customers to share in other “responsible” areas such as parenting.

The NBA blog (http://www.nba.com/blog/) is an example we learned from to try to avoid. Its purpose is to provide a varied collection of insiders, media members and fans from around the world who will share their thoughts about the NBA, WNBA, and whatever else comes to mind. The problem here is a lack of consistency. Posts seem to be put up on a random basis so you dont know when to come back to read another one. For example, the blog posted on August 26 and then did not have another post until October 18! Why would any visitor keep visiting the site to read the blog if nothing new is posted on a timely basis? Furthermore, some NBA players have recently posted their journals, but there is no signal as to when, if ever, the same or any other player will post another journal entry. Finally, the topics and writers are all over the board from a writer in France to Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers to posts about the WNBA. It all leads to a poor customer experience.

GM and Ice.com both write blogs which have garnered media attention and a ton of buzz. GM has generated a cult like following for Vice Chairman Bob Lutz’s weekly controversial observations about the auto industry (http://fastlane.gmblogs.com/). Ice.com has 3 blogs, 2 of which are not hosted on the main website itself. Each blog is consistent and clear in its purpose. The company can accomplish various goals in different settings showing Ice.coms recent press coverage, a tongue in cheek look at celebrity jewelry, and tips from a jewelry expert (http://blog.ice.com/, http://www.sparklelikethestars.com/, and http://www.justaskleslie.com/).

However blogs are utilized, a little extra thought behind it can enhance a brand. Through continually posting new content, customers leaving comments, and the viral nature of blogs, visiting your website can become a “must-see” daily activity for your customers.

Josh Grossman is cofounder of online florist Beyond Blossoms (http://www.beyondblossoms.com). The company’s mission is to send flowers fresh from the farms at low prices and with great designs.

Taragana Launches Comment Guard Pro - Comment Spam Protection Software for WordPress Blogs

Kolkata, India (PRWEB) March 5, 2008

Taragana Inc, a leading provider of Web 2.0 enabling software, today announced the launch of Comment Guard Pro, a third generation comment spam protection software for WordPress blogs which uses an expert system to classify comments. Comment spam is the bane of interactive Web 2.0 media like blogs and wiki, often forcing administrators to shut down commenting altogether, being unable to cope with ever increasing spam volume. Comment Guard Pro leverages 22 tried and tested comment spam fighting techniques which is the result of several man-years of research into comment spam detection, both in-house and by the anti-spam community.

“Comment Guard Pro was born out of years of frustration fishing out dozens of false positives (legitimate comments which were marked as spam by anti-spam filters) from spam queue with several thousands of comments and deleting several dozens of false negatives (comment spam which passed through spam filters) on a daily basis”, said Angsuman Chakraborty, CEO Taragana. “We want to give back the joy of blogging without worrying about spams.”

Comment Guard Pro is designed to unobtrusively protect against all types of comment spams – trackback spam, pingback spam, robotic spam using comment form, human submitted spam and referrer spam. It provides multiple layers of protection against each type of comment spam. The focus was to eliminate false positives and minimize false negatives. Comment Guard Pro was 100% successful in eliminating all kind of robotic / automated spams in tests with several popular live blogs with over 5 million comments over a period of one year. False negative, where a spam is misidentified as genuine comment, are hardest to eliminate from non-automated spams (manual spam). Comment Guard Pro achieved an impressive rate of less than 0.1% false negatives in tests.

Comment spam, like email spam, is a moving target as spammers continuously adapt to anti-spamming techniques. Any effective solution also needs to be equally adaptive. Comment Guard Pro uses an expert system with pluggable rules (or pluglets). Each pluglet is extensively configurable. Users can extend it easily by writing their own pluglets. Comment Guard Pro provides a heavily documented Open API to develop pluglets which can be distributed for free or sold.
