If you want to be free of spam, you should at least use some kind of spam filter for your computer. A spam blocker is a software application that scans and orders your incoming e-mail messages and attempts to filter out unwanted messages. A spam blocker is normally not 100% effective, but it takes a lot of the manual work in reading through and deleting unsolicited e-mails off your hands.

There are numerous free anti spam software that you may consider using. This can help you to clean up your inbox by removing junk mail easily. You may do a search engine search for the keyphrase ‘free anti spam’ and review each of the results until you find a free spam blocker software you like.

An example of a free spam blocker is POPfile. This is a good e-mail POP and NNTP proxy that filters out junk mail while ordering your normal mail.

It is important that you learn the basics concerning how to stop spam. Be sure to install and use a spam filter for all your e-mail addresses. This will help you get closer to no more spam in your inbox.

You probably already know that spam is unwanted, but is it illegal? A big problem with spam law is that the world wide web has grown so quickly. Spam law has been lagging behind and is still a bit confused about what is considered to be spam and what is not. Just remember that junk mail is illegal when unsolicited as well as sent in bulk.

Email spam wastes a lot of time and inbox space. This is true for individuals as well as big companies. Companies and individuals want to deal with junk mail safely and easily. This has created a big need for effective anti-spam software.

Stopping spam is proving to be difficult. If the anti spam law of one country makes it too difficult to work there, the spam gangs simply relocate to a different country with a weaker spam law.

You may need a spam filter if you desire to be free of spam mail. Spam blocker software blocks messages it decides is junk mail and keeps them from appearing in your inbox. It may accidentally block messages you wanted to read, but on the whole it is quite useful.

You can help the fight to eliminate spam by using a spam filter or complaining to your internet service provider about it. Also, never respond to any spam email you receive. Spammers are after all criminals engaging in unlawful behavior. This may help us towards a world wide web with no more spam.

What is a Highly Optimized Forum?

There are a few important differences between a normal forum and one that is optimized for the search engines.

The problem with a normal forum is that spiders have a hard time crawling through them. This is because the pages of most forums aren’t normal .html pages. Most forums are PHP pages that have a lot of “junk” after them. This junk is actually a bunch of numbers (called a session id) that is assigned to a web site visitor and which is used to track the visitor’s path and the time of entry and exit.

For example, the URL of a typical forum URL might look like this:

http://www.domainname.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=5&sid=dada710f34b2dcc1eb79ea

Obviously that isn’t the ideal situation if your goal is to get your forum indexed into the search engines.

Instead, you want your forum’s URL to look like this:

http://www.domainname.com/forum/keyword10.html

Why You Need a Highly Optimized Forum

There’s a way to optimize a forum in such a way that, every time someone posts a new forum topic, it actually creates a new html page.

This is a big deal because it’s like the members of your forums are creating keyword-rich content for you every day!

And if your forum become really popular, this means hundreds or even THOUSANDS of pages of content is created for you on a daily basis! All this content is free, original, and useful to your visitors!

Another great reason why we put a forum on all of our Adsense sites is because it differentiates our web sites from all the other Adsense sites on the Internet.

As we’ve mentioned in previous lessons, you don’t want to make your Adsense sites look like all the other “Made for Adsense” sites on the Internet. Some search engines are starting to ban web sites that look like they have no other purpose but to display Adsense ads.

Installing the Mod

First, what is a mod?

Mod is short for modification. A mod, as it refers to forums, is something that is typically created by the public that adds features that aren’t available in the original forum script.

But this mod isn’t a typical one. It doesn’t add any cool features or extras. In fact, it takes some away. But the important thing is the fact that it makes every topic in your forum its own optimized HTML page.

The mod is provided by Able2Know.com and can be downloaded at:
http://search.able2know.com/cgi-bin/jump.cgi?ID=5478&view=File

We have a video in the A/V Department that will show you how to install the mod. If you need any help, just post a message in our forum and we’ll give you a hand.

Growing Your Forum

Now that you have your Highly Optimized Forum installed, you have to get people to start posting in it!

Unfortunately, that’s easier said than done. The problem is, most people don’t want to post in an empty forum.

So here are 7 tips for jump-starting a new forum:

Post a prominent link. Make sure you post a big bold link on your front page of your web site that advertises your forum. You want to drive as much traffic to your forum as you can when you are first starting out. Nobody can post in your forum if they can’t find it…

Create some starter topics. You can get the ball rolling by creating a few “starter topics.” One way to get people posting is by asking a controversial question. For example, if you have a political forum, you could ask, “Should George Bush be impeached?” This will get people to post because a lot of your visitors will have an opinion since this is an easily debatable topic.

Let guests create topics. A lot of forums on the Internet require visitors to register before they can post. This seems to discourage a fairly large percentage of people from posting. Some people feel that it’s not worth the hassle of registering just to post a simple question or comment. That’s why we recommend giving guests the ability to start topics on your forum… at least until your forum grows larger.

Link to your forum from every article. Most Adsense sites have a lot of articles on them. It’s a good idea to post a link at the end of every article that says, “Discuss this article in our forum!” Your visitor will be more willing to go to your forum since they are done reading the article any way.

Limit the number of categories your forum has. A common mistake I see a lot of people make when they first start their forum is they have too many categories. For example, your forum could have a “General Discussion” as well as an “Off Topic” category. If you have too many, and people only post in a couple of them, your entire forum will look like a ghost town! Once your forum becomes popular, start adding more categories if you feel like it needs them.

Start a poll. Most forums (such as phpBB) have the ability to start polls. We’ve noticed that even people who don’t like to post at all in forums will at least answer a poll to find out what the results are.

Create fake posts. Okay, this tip is a little controversial and not everyone feels comfortable doing it… but it is an effective way to make your forum look less “empty”. You can create a few posts with fake names in order to make your forum look more popular than it is. This seems to work well because people are more likely to post in a forum if they see other people doing it too.
Your highly optimized forum is a valuable thing! Remember, every time someone starts a topic, that’s a new HTML page that can be indexed by the search engines!

Exactly how valuable is your forum? Well, I’ll put it this way… some people pay writers $20 or more for articles that they can post on their Adsense sites. Each topic to your forum is just as original, keyword-rich, and useful as any article on the Internet… and it’s completely free!

A beginner usually feels very attracted to the stock market while for example discovering a penny stock that’s being reported in CNBC or the news program and watching it rise steady fast and make new highs from $1 to $7 in just 2 months.

Now, they can read what the movie critics have to say, read all the reviewers’ opinions, scour through tons of feedback by fans who actually watched the movies, and the best part, they can preview the movies by watching online movie trailers. The Internet has quickly become the most important medium for fans to source for information and communicate. So now, in a very virtual way, we can all share movie experiences with someone halfway across the globe. We see some comments on a movie review site, and we respond to those comments.

After a few visits to movie review sites, you would probably have observed that they all have a few characteristics in common. They update their sites with fresh content, almost on a daily basis. So visitors have a strong incentive to revisit these sites every day. They have intuitive designs that look great, so that visitors have no problem navigating the site and finding whatever they are looking for. They also have very few broken links and videos. Some sites I come across have all the makings of a top-notch movie review site, but when I want to watch the movies, I realized the most of the videos are broken. As you can guess, I never returned to this site ever again.

Having killer content is certainly a good thing, but what exactly is considered killer content? Does having movie trailers with a few sentences and a star rating count as killer content? That is typical of traditional movie reviews, and you can get a ton of such content easily on thousands of websites on the Internet. The better sites take great pains to differentiate themselves from the rest of the sites. The way to do this, is to leave their opinions. These sites don’t just leave reviews that look more like testimonials. They take a stand and speak their minds. If they don’t like it, they say it, and they justify it.

And you know what? Visitors do enjoy visiting sites with valuable opinions. It gives them abundant opportunities to respond to these reviews, and state their own opinions as well. Finally, someone has bothered to speak up and now, they have a new channel to express their own opinions and have the world hearing their “voices”.

Reading these opinions can really be as enjoyable (if not more) as watching the actual movie itself. That’s because there is interaction. Surely, you must have been entertained by some comments that you’ve come across on movie review sites, so much so that they brought a smile to your face and made your day. That’s the effect of a high quality movie review site.

Those of us who know what real cystic acne is are so frustrated because we know that washing the skin is not going to solve the problem.  Those of us who have had acne for a while get even more frustrated when we realize that people are going to look at you as though you don’t take care of yourself or you lack personal hygiene when in reality your about 20 times more free of germs than the next guy.

Unfortunate we live in a society where we should feel less secure about ourselves because our skin is bad. The weird thing is that supposedly 80% of the society suffers from cystic acne in adolescence. I have seen people with very mild acne react much stronger than people with worse acne though – and that shows how it does depend on the person generally.  However, I have never encountered a soul who has cystic acne and is completely fine with it. It’s frustrating to be encountered by those blessed with clear skin who tell you that all you need is to wash your face. Acne is much more than a fleeting teen affliction. It is in fact a disorder that really affect ones self-esteem, self-confidence, and happiness, to minimize this only serves to minimize the anguish that many suffer on a daily basis.

The solution for those bad feeling is not easy but you can still try to deal with it. You can have cystic acne and still enjoy your social life. Try to take it as if the acnes aren’t there, and everyone else don’t bother bout your acnes too when socializing.

The answer is no. Data recovery is a black art, being able to recover data from drives that have failed requires skill, precision and patience. Data recovery technicians have to be able to manipulate drives, open them up and repair small components to enable the safe recovery of data.

A clean room is needed to carry out data recovery effectively, if this is not available and the process takes place without this critical clean air environment you can wave bye bye to your data. As any particle of dust or hair that lands on the platter surface will damage the data way beyond repair.

Some customers feel that they are paying way over the odds for data recovery, and many compare it to the amount they originally paid for the entire computer system. However customers fail to understand the amount of skill and work that goes in the data recovery process and also the number of hours they spend in the lab and the amount of legwork needed to be done to ensure that the customer is happy data they have retrieved .

Hard drives fail for a number of reasons. The main reason being that they have been dropped which has a dramatic effect on the hard drive and its ability to read the data. Data recovery specialists typically see this type of drive failure on a daily basis and work hard to recover that data by using specialist recovery techniques known only to the data recovery industry.

It is important that you understand the mechanics of viral email marketing to take advantage of its full potentials, and get the cash your business needs at a fraction of the usual time and effort.

What is Viral Email Marketing?

Viral marketing is one of the most efficient marketing tool innovated in the online industry. The term was coined after the idea of an information spreading quickly and effectively. In offline marketing industry, viral marketing is what is often referred to as “word-of-mouth” marketing strategy, which is considered by some marketing experts as the most effective type of marketing.

Viral email marketing is a branch of a variety of viral marketing tools and techniques that internet marketers can use these days. Although the benefits are quite appealing, there are certain techniques that online marketers need to follow closely in order to reap those benefits.

Since most people these days utilize their email to communicate on a daily basis, it is where viral email marketing is targeted. You can therefore appeal to every individual in your target market specifically, which when done correctly, have higher potential of generating sales.

If you were to recall the history of email marketing campaigns, it all started with Hotmail. They offered clients who availed of their service a free email account. For every online businessmen though, you can offer a variety of techniques to your prospects through their email that will enable you to utilize the power of this technology to spread the word about your marketing campaign.

Viral Email Marketing Techniques

The techniques you use in your viral email marketing campaign depends largely on your business goals. In most cases, the goals of an online marketer when sending out emails to the people in their mailing list is to inform them about a particular product or information. A subset to this goal is to compel them to forward the message or email to their friends in their email list, thus spreading the word about your line of products.

Why would your prospects forward the email they receive? The key here is to send them emails that are of some level of worth. If not, then it would probably take them a shorter amount of time to delete the email message than they would reading what the content of the mail is.

One effective way to increase readership is to carefully consider the information value or entertainment value you input in the content of your email message. Being informative does not necessarily mean your email message has to be dull. Learn how to infuse some creativity into it. With proper use of useful or amusing content, you will most likely compel people in your mailing list to read your emails and forward them to people who might benefit from them.

Prior to this stage though, you need to have had proper methods of building a large opt-in list. The methods you use must also be targeted, such that the people in your mailing list are most likely to respond to your viral email marketing campaign.

Subject Line of a Viral Email

Although this comes prior to the actual opening of your emails, this is incredibly important. The subject line is the first thing that a person sees whenever they open their inbox. There are only two options for them: to click on the mail you sent or not. Hence, it is important that you convince them to do the former. One technique is to keep your subject line interesting or provoke curiosity.

Using the “Open Me” or “Read Me” approach is fast becoming ineffective. Plus, it is a very lazy approach at convincing people to actually read the mail. Try to keep your subject line short but snappy for higher effectiveness.

Content of a Viral Email

You have three options in terms of how you build the content for your viral email marketing: sales letter, newsletter, or review format. Regardless of your choice of content format, you need to keep it brief yet ample in scope. Remember, people browsing the internet have short amount of patience and you need to feed them the information they need within the shortest time possible.

If you find that the message is too long but all parts are too relevant to omit, consider sending them in parts. This is also an effective way to rouse the reader’s interest.

Another way to convince them to click on the links you provided is by offering them a valuable and tangible object. It does not need to be a lucrative object but must be something of value or usefulness to them. This helps further an effective viral email marketing that produces real results.

Timing or Frequency in Sending Out Viral Emails

Here is another important component for an effective viral email marketing campaign. If you have set the schedule for the broadcast of your viral email messages using an autoresponder, make sure to limit the amount of emails you send the people in your mailing list.

Three times a week should be substantial to advance your viral email marketing, but there are always exceptions to the rule. The key is to be sensitive to the needs and desires of your audience, and to offer them the right amount of information at the right moments.

Overdoing it can result to annoyance on the part of your readers and cause them to opt-out of their subscription. Or worse, they could spread the word about their dissatisfaction, which could negatively affect your reputation.

After all, an effective viral email marketing campaign is built more around the powerful messages you send them, rather than the frequency of emails on their inbox.
