Will Google's SEO Power Remain After Street View Fiasco?

When you're the biggest people tend to go after you.

Man U were the best team throughout the 90's but everyone loved to have a dig at them, Schumacher for Ferrari, Woods, Leicester Tigers...I'm sure I could think of more sporting references but I'll stop there.

A few weeks ago I wrote a post about the Australian government complaining about Google's Street-View cars obtaining data about people's wireless connections.

Now a Spanish organization, the Association for the Prevention and Investigation of Crime, Abuse and Malpractice in Information Technology and Advanced Communications (Apedanica), is taking Google to court over the same issue.

Intercepting telecommunications carries between one and four years prison time in Spain and Miguel Angel Gallardo, the Apedanica president, obviously believes this wasn't a simple mistake, he said "something which was carefully programmed and has been done in 30 countries can't be an error".

Over the last month, the street cars have been banned in Austria and Greece, while the Italians are investigating the cars.

If Google was a smaller company would the countries be as angry?

Does Google's size stop it from making "genuine" mistakes?

If Google's power is curtailed will this have any effect on SEO? Well, people seem to be talking up Bing at the moment but market share wise it's so far off Google.

Google would probably need to be the cause of a massive oil spill, tsunami and small pox outbreak before Bing overtook its share of the market.

Google is trying to make itself a company that the World needs, that every business needs to be listed and every search needs to go through, but when does anyone ever want the successful, powerful and massive team to win? (I've asked too many rhetorical questions, haven't I? Sorry).

I doubt if anyone from Google Spain will go to prison, maybe they'll have to pay a fine, it's just your typical little guy trying to ruin the Man.

Childhood Memorabilia That May Have Value to Collectors

Everyone thinks they have something valuable from their childhood that is highly collectible and sometimes they are correct but frequently they are very mistaken. There has always been a market for old baseball cards particularly the ones of very popular players who left their mark on the game. Children everywhere remember the fun they had trading these with their friends to try to collect the players they admired the most. Everyone has heard of Topps baseball cards and many people even have memories of buying them along with a flat piece of bubble gum wrapped up inside the package. Many of these are not valuable to collectors today because of the quantity that were distributed but some of them have value into the thousands of dollars due to the novelty of the sports figure whose photograph and career highlights are chronicled on them. Some other popular collectibles even today are:

� Dolls: Many women like to collect dolls from their childhood and that makes Betsy- Wetsy, Shirley Temple, and similar dolls very collectible. Very old dolls with porcelain faces are also much in demand to collectors. Even very old doll clothing and furniture is sold every day on e-bay and in antique stores.

� Trains: Old toy trains like Lionel bring back great childhood memories and are highly valued by a lot of collectors. Many people remember getting these train sets for birthday gifts or holiday presents and can even now recall the excitement they felt. Because these train sets were so appreciated, a lot of guys have kept them all these years later and still have their original train sets. Those that like the trains but never got them for one reason or another are sometimes in the market to add them to their collections.

� Matchbox cars: These tiny cars were highly prized and affordable when they first came out and even today they are still being produced and sold new. Of course, as in everything collectible, any old Matchbox cars that are for sale and in good condition are sought by collectors to add to their set.

� Comic books: Who would have thought that old comic books could become so valuable? What was originally simply thrown out has become very pricey and highly collectible to those who enjoy comic books. These are harder to find in good condition because the paper they are printed on tears so easily so an old comic book in excellent can fetch a very good price.

� Board games: Old board games were constructed differently than they are today and can actually be quite lovely to behold. Many people enjoy the memories that these games invoke and they appreciate an old game similar to the ones they played with as a child so they are willing to pay a good price for them. A box that has been preserved unbroken and in good condition adds to the value of the board game and of course all of the pieces must be intact to make it appealing to a collector.

Connor R Sullivan recently sold his old [http://baseballcardshop.net/]baseball cards to a collector for a nice profit. He ordered [http://baseballcardshop.net/]topps baseball cards online to give to his son as a birthday gift.

Why Would You Quit Network Marketing?

Are you considering quitting network marketing? The competition is fierce and you are not finding any business minded prospects for your wonderful opportunity. Your friends and family all think you are involved in some pyramid scheme without a remote chance of success. The leads you have obtained are worthless and just keep hanging up on you when you call. The cost of advertising has put you in debt to where you are having sleepless nights. Does all of this sound familiar? Even though there are many drawbacks to the path you have chosen, you can succeed in this career choice if you follow some important advice.

First of all, who cares what your friends and family think? At least you have the determination and drive to give yourself the potential of a magnificent lucrative occupation. The people who choose to criticize are either ignorant of mlm or so unhappy with their own life that demeaning you is the only way to feel better about their self worth. Stay away from these kind of influences and surround yourself with other entrepreneurial minded people like yourself who have an extreme desire for success.

Next, make sure when you find your perfect network marketing opportunity, you join under a true leader. This is a crucial point and with the wrong leader, you are doomed from the beginning. A great leader will take you by the hand and show you step by step and help you achieve your goals. A self serving chief will not even acknowledge you as a part of his team and your only contact will be after your initial joining. Beware of distributors with this kind of attitude. Before joining, take a few minutes and call the person whose company you would like to join and follow your gut instincts. I have learned over the years that a "bad feeling" about someone is usually accurate.

Last but not least, you must find the right MLM training system. In order to be really triumphant, a duplicatable system must be in place for your impending downline. This was my personal final lesson I had to learn. The training with the right system is priceless and will speed up your learning curve. Be diligent and follow their advice to the letter. After all, these network marketers are seven figure earners and obviously know the right blueprint to use for ultimate achievement.

The next time you have the urge to quit your dream of being a successful marketer, remember there is nothing in this world you can not accomplish with the right attitude and hard work. Besides, you can always weigh the alternatives. Behind curtain #1 is unemployment at an all time high and rising, no family vacations, no nice cars, no nice home, daycare for the children and a high pressure boss in a job you hate. Behind curtain #2 is luxury vacations, cool cars, working from home, nice home and the personal satisfaction of giving your family the life they deserve.

Is Narc That Car the Real Deal?

Is Narc That Car the Real Deal and a Ground Floor Opportunity?

Here's an overview;

What is it?

Narc That Car sells up-to-date car location data for lien-holders, law enforcement agencies, missing persons/amber alerts, etc. As a rep you report - or 'narc' - 10 cars per month. Write up 10 license plates, upload the numbers and locations into the data base - that's it. The real story is that you will want to recruit people and teach them to do the same thing. In all our reviews so far, this is the easiest MLM program we have seen, and we've seen it working.

Is it a scam?

No - the company is not only real, it is two and a half years old. Previously, though, the company was not marketed by network marketing. The MLM method has proven explosively effective in a very short time with 40x growth in a matter of weeks.

How does Narc That Car make money?

NTC pays fairly well all things considered. It is not a 'monster' income maker, but rather it is a good way to 'leverage' yourself into an income with network marketing doing something that is an easier-than-normal 'sell'. You get paid $25 each for 3 people you sponsor at first. (The maximum is 3 for this bonus.) By reporting plates yourself you also get $50. This totals $125, paying you back your full cost of start-up.

When you grow to director status (with a completed team of 12 people under you) you also get paid $25 each for the next reps that you start.

Residual income on the reported license plates is $.25 or more depending on your seniority. You also get paid 5-10% from every client purchase you bring in. That doesn't sound like much, but like every other MLM when you get several levels deep with big numbers of people the residual is strong. NTC pays out five levels deep.

The good news is that NTC is still growing at a feverish rate so folks have reached strong incomes quickly. Further, the system is extremely easy. It is as close to a 'no-brainer' as you might find, enabling easier growth than most.

What is the start-up cost?

It costs $100 to sign up and the recurring monthly business cost is $24.95 for the web tools to run your business. You get 10 free days of web service so you could go recruit your three people, narc your cars and be certain of getting income before you even spend the money.

Pros

* low startup cost
* easy to do
* easy to understand
* easy to recruit

Cons

* small commission payouts
* lasting success is an unknown
* bonuses limited to 3 reps at first

Round Up - The Bottom Line

This business is growing at a very rapid pace and the time to take advantage of it is now! The company may run out of steam in a year or two, but for now, it is explosive. The company is set to change their name to Crowd Source International (CSI) and has staffed up to handle their growth.

Are You at the Mercy of Experts? Ignore Them and Spin Your Own Gold

What is the economic forecast in your household? Gloom or Boom? While the national economy recovers in fits and starts, if you have lost your job or business, it's no good to you whether the stock market is rising, or mining is booming, or the GDP is rising, or any of that stuff!

My own family has suffered through a household recession brought on by the lesser need for jobs. But I firmly believe "every adversity brings with it the seed of an equivalent advantage" (Napoleon Hill). Out of this hard time a new web design/SEO business was born. My copywriting sprouted wings and I am now writing for new businesses who want a strong presence online.

Back to you - does having passive income interest you? With this "making money online" field, there are many pitfalls for the unwary. I found that psychological principles apply on the Internet just as much as in the offline world.

Consider this - you have been conditioned to search for GAIN without WORK, quick cash, and easy credit. This leads thousands of people into scams (from email, internet or phone) and overly risky investments. It also spells failure for the thousands of people who see others' signs of success (income, houses, cars), but don't understand the depth of their powerful drive and action towards their goals.

Power of Authority

Our faith in authority figures leads to our falling into money traps. Studies have shown we are strongly inclined to follow the instructions of someone who looks like an expert. We will even substitute our judgement for those with the symbols of authority. Research into obedience to authority shows that we underestimate the extent to which the appearance of authority will influence us. While the old scientific tests were mainly done with people in doctor's coats, this influence also applies to political leaders, financial experts, financial planners, or any authority figure. Do the gurus of internet marketing also come to mind?

So what can we do about it? How do we detach ourselves from this strong influence and work to our own goals? One way that I mentioned in my book Sack Your Financial Planner, is to forget the herd's sentiment and make your decisions contrary to the crowd. This means you would invest when people are most fearful of investing (and thus get the lower prices), and withdraw and seek other markets when the herd is caught up in buying frenzy.

Despite the wave nature of markets, there is one thing that is always in demand. No, not gold - which is still subject to trend waves. As we pass the industrial age, we are now in the "knowledge worker age" (Stephen Covey) or the information economy. The new gold of this age is... specific information.

So what does this mean for you? This means that people are willing to pay for information that guides them to their goals and dreams. Research is part of any successful enterprise, so let's explore some of the most searched for topics on the internet:

- Loans and finance
- Cars
- Business
- Computer
- Hotels and Travel information
- Mobile phones
- Real Estate
- General shopping
- Business
- Education
- Gambling
- Photography
- Flowers
- Health (also think Yoga, Massage therapy, etc)
- Music
- Work from home jobs

Within one of these trending topics you will surely find a connection, something you love to do and what others enjoy also. Then you can start attracting people through your written words and the tips you want to share with others. There are a few more details to learn, but finding a valuable market in your area of interest is at the heart of it. "The amount of money that business owners make online is proportionate to the value of their market." (Source: Noble Samurai).

Nine Ways to Make Quick Cash

Sell stuff - You may have old watches or jewellery that you never use, the price of precious metals is at an all time high
Start your own business - With the advent of the internet with minimal technical knowledge, you can get a functioning website set-up for minimal cost. Or provide a service to companies, think about things that maybe annoy you and try to think of relevant business ideas.
Set-up an eBay account, buy stuff and sell it at a profit. It works! Do not sell fake goods, you may make some money for a period of time, but you will get shut down.
Build a blog talking about what it is you need the money for,
Find ad's that you think that you can drive internet traffic to, do it and then get the ads to be clicked upon.
Sell your soul and join in for
Sell sperm (one for the guys). Or for women sell your eggs.
Start a car washing business, most people want there cars washed, there is limited set-up cost and you could easily make a few hundred pounds in a day if you focused on people with dirty cars.
Bar work is always a quick way to make a few quid. Plus you will probably end up making some good friends at the same time.

There are a myriad of ways to make money, you have to be creative and committed, then it will all come good. Personally I would try to visualise how you would feel if you were in possession of the cash that you need, then this will help to generate some further ideas around how to get where you need to be.

Setting yourself a deadline to raise the money will also help you to focus your mind, its always easier to get to a goal, whatever it may be if you have a very specific deadline in mind, including the date or even the time!

Last resort ask friends of family to lend you the money, if you have to do this its better that you have a real reason for the cash then you can explain specifically what you need it for this will hopefully help you to get a better response than if you just fancy a few beers!

Good luck!

Home is Where It's At

Insane leaps

Days of time past had little technology, you would have to have major money or trade value in order to make deals with large companies or groups. Such as large amounts of funds and the creditability of a major sales-men in order to get the backing to distribute their products.

That was a major issue for people like you and I who have little funds and no trade value, no creditability.. how are we going to be credible in a companies eye's with no family or political ties?

Years ago that is what it took to strike deals and start earning a chunk of a major corporation or business money from sales.

Now days we click on a link, check out products........ got one...... that was how long it took to find a product. Sign up as an affiliate to the company, receive a link that has your own ID# or name in it.

Promote the link and tell friends about it. They buy it and boom you earn commissions.

You are striking deals with large companies with out needing the credibility of the senators son.. or having heavy political ties and large some of money, as you had to in the past!

The future

New moves in major ways!
You and I are able to make huge moves in simple major ways.
Set up an affiliate account and select several products.
Get a domain to host your websites on.
Make a page with pictures and information on the product.
Insert the link to the cost and picture, save it.
Promote it.

Simple steps to making money.

Vacations,family time, travels & sites, isn't this what we all deserve?? I think so and so do all the companies out their. Figure it this way a company that has all satisfied sales men is a company that lasts a life time.

A company with non satisfied members equals a failing company!

The future is us, their is a need for product sales so their is a need for sales-men and women.

We are whats in demand, we can work hard a couple hours a day staying dedicated to our work from home business or bust our bottoms every day all day for little pay while the people up the ladder or making a killing and doing none of the grunt work!

Get me wrong?

Do NOT get my wrong I believe in manual labor, it feels great and keeps roofs over our head and cars on the road..

Some people love these jobs and they work hard coming home stinking to no ends and feel happy at the end of the day.

That is great, keep doing this I have lots of respect for these folks, they are what make the world keep moving, we would not have our buildings, cars, store buildings, parking garages, food and other great things.

Select few are the ones that remain dedicated to making a living through the internet marketing business.

They will travel the world and use net connections on their journeys to plug in and check their business to find they have even more money placed into their accounts for sales they made through the day when they were out having fun with their families.. Wake up in the morning to having even more sales.

This is all a possibility, it is up to you to learn and use the tools available this day in age.

A Few Simple and Completely Free Tips For Energizing Your Home-Based Business - Or Your Money Back

Twenty four hours in a day, just as always; yet it seems as though there's never enough time to even come close to accomplishing everything you planed. Even with all of our exceptional technical gadgets, (and they are truly cool) we still find ourselves only completing a fraction of what we had set out to do that day. My complete respect to those who are able to stay focused enough to accomplish their daily goals with young children in the house. Just taking care of kids by itself can be exhausting; add to that the daunting task of starting and maintaining your own businesses is really quite an accomplishment. Kudos to you. I'm single with no children and there are times when I too feel like I could use a few more hours in the day. Though I have no excuse. There are however, some very simple and free strategies that successful people adhere to, that allows them to stay focused and goal oriented.

I know for fact that my personal productivity level is at a maximum as long as my place is neat and organized. Though isn't it amazing how fast a place can go from looking perfectly neat and tidy to embarrassingly messy and cluttered? If we remove the clutter from our offices, closets, homes, and cars, we will be rewarded with a clearer and sharper mind and spirit; thus allowing us the energy to get more accomplished. Not only that, but you just feel so much better about yourself and your surroundings. It's also a great aid in loosing weight. If we can free ourselves from all the clutter, it's really a win win. And yes, I did say cars. I know there are a lot of you out there with some very messy cars. Now don't think that people haven't noticed or commented about your situation. Now I'm not referring to those with small children and mini-vans. I would imagine it's pretty close to impossible to keep those clean. However, those who are using their cars as a trash can / dirty laundry hamper on wheels, and then putting their business and future business colleagues into the front seat with all those germs enclosed around them are really doing themselves a disservice. Your leasing that brand new car to give the impression that you have more money than you really do, and then you leave junk and trash all over the seats and floors. What a waste. In my humble opinion. (was that harsh?)

Now that your place is all organized you can finally find your calendar which is another great tool for staying on target. When you set up a calendar for your day, week or month you're really setting yourself up for success. Even with the over abundance of technology, sometimes just simply writing down your list of things to tackle in an allotment of time will really help you to stay focused and extremely productive. Those of you with children who are very busy with extra curricular activities really know about the necessity of a wall calendar. Your business deserves the same attention. Set up your activities for the day and stick to it. That way you won't be so distracted with the flirtation of procrastination. Believe me, I know all too well how seductive procrastination can be. We had a pretty serious thing going for years.

One activity that we must make sure to schedule into our daily calendar is exercise. Now hold on, I hear the moans from some of you. I'm a firm believer in doing what feels good. The key to being successful with exercise is actually finding something that you enjoy. If you hate gyms, then try dancing, or roller-blading, yoga, fencing, or simply taking a ten minute walk will do wonders for your health (mind and body). Find something that really brings you joy. Experiment with different routes or exercises to mix it up a bit if you like. Especially for those of us who spend a lot of time sitting at a desk or computer. Getting out into the fresh air and moving the body is really invigorating. Regardless of how much you have to talk yourself into doing it, you always feel so much better after you've finished. For me, it's an absolute necessity to have music playing while working out. One of my careers is that of a professional vocalist and violinist. Music is a huge part of my life; even now I have Chris Boti playing in the background. Find out what works for you at that particular moment in time.

Obviously, these are just a few of the many ideas used to insure a successful home and/or business. I know these strategies are extremely simple really, but I also know these small steps can lead to some real giant leaps and bounds to any business career.

Well, that's my two cents for the day. As always, feel free to post your comments or reactions.
