Cell Phones

Now a days in the world a huge global issue is cell phones. Many teenagers, most if not all, have cell phones. In schools and colleges cell phones have been banned, but nobody knows when there will be an emergency. For an example the Columbine High School shooting, students were or would be able to call the police. Students should be able to have cell phones on campus as long as they have them turned off and they are not a distraction.

Difference between the World Wide Web and the Internet

As a very profound user of the Internet, I reckon the use of it and how it works should be mastered. Devoid of getting into too much detail the Internet and the World Wide Web are different in some way. The Internet is in point of fact, a worldwide network. The history of the Internet started way back in the 1960s. Protocols and browsers make up the Internet and also have a lot to do with how the Internet works. Using the Internet is not very complex at all, especially if you are familiar with a few basics of a computer. Electronic mail is a feature that is used most frequently on the Internet. Viruses are a cause of some problems on the Internet. Search engines are used when you don’t exactly know where to get the information that you are researching on the Internet. The Internet and the World Wide Web is a very broad topic that can go into much detail further more than comparing the two.

There is a small difference between the World Wide Web and the Internet. Most people use them interchangeably. The basis for the Web is the Internet. The Web is built on the Internet, and makes use of many of the mechanisms the Internet provides. The Internet is the hardware or physical aspects such as computers, networks, and/or services.

Affiliate Marketing

What is Affiliate marketing? Affiliate program is nothing but you hearten other webmasters to sign up and advertise your services and products on their sites, in exchange you pay them based on their performance. An affiliate program is an excellent way to gain additional sales. There are options for all budgets, but you generally get what you pay for. There are various way that affiliates are paid: Per Impression: The affiliate is paid a set amount for every time that your ad is shown. The downside is that affiliates have no incentive to send you traffic, or to put your ad in a attention-grabbing location. Per Click: You pay a set amount for each unique person that clicks on your ad. This is similar to a PPC engine. The downside is that you must pay even if the traffic is of a low quality. Per Lead: You pay your affiliates based on the number of unique people that click on your ad, and then proceed to complete a particular action (for example, a "lead" might be when someone downloads a trial, or signs up for a mailing list). This is very similar to Per Sale, but is more common on sites promoting free services. Per Sale: The affiliates are remunerated either a percentage or a set amount for each sale generated by a user that originated from the affiliate's siteAffiliates generally prefer receiving commissions on a Per Impression or Per Click basis, but site owners have a preference of the inevitability of Per Lead and Per Sale. There are three ways to start an affiliate program: Your own script, install a script, or use a third-party service. Your own script If your website's order system has been custom-made, then one option may be to ask your programmer to add an affiliate program to the system. The programmer would add some code to the payment script, and then develop a simple interface for affiliates to see how they're doing, and for you to check on your affiliates. This is an cost-effective choice for sites based on custom scripting, but site owners may be somnolent to trust your reporting (after all, it would be in your best interest to fudge the numbers). Established sites can get away with this, but new websites may have difficulty here. Also, if you roll your own then it will be entirely up to you to promote it. Installing a Script If you don't have a custom-made order script, or if the required modifications would be too pricey, then a similar alternative would be to install a ready-made script. The CGI Resource Index has a list of such scripts. Free scripts are out there, but are generally difficult to find if you're interested in the script's quality (which is important for an affiliate program). Expect to pay $20 to $60 for a good affiliate script. Like rolling your own, this presents the problem of finding affiliates. Also, affiliates may be just as apprehensive of using a script controlled by you as they would be of a custom-built affiliate system. Using a Third-Party Service The final alternative, and the one chosen by the largest number of sites, is to use a third-party service. Here, you let another company control your affiliate program. They will take care of managing it, and to some extent finding affiliates, but at a price.

Vision of Tomorrow

This is the passage that I happenend to see in a site today.I thought this is worth sharing.

Jim Rohn, America's Foremost Business Philosopher once said that:

"The greatest pull on your life should be the pull of the future because then you won't be pulled by your past or pulled apart by circumstances."

You have to a powerfully compelling picture in mind of future that produces passion in you so great that your personal transformation must occur if you are to obtain it!

Standing the Test of Time

This is the passage that I happenend to see in a site today.I thought this is worth sharing. If we are to stand the test of time then we must be leaders to ourselves before we can be leaders to the world. We have to follow through on our commitments and remain true to ourselves at all times. No compromises.

We have to decide early on how we are going to define ourselves and then set out to make that a reality to world. The world will receive us only as we receive ourselves. If we want to know how others see us then all we need to do is examine how we see ourselves.

It doesn't matter what we say or set out to do. We will always have to be tested in the arena of life and only the fully persuaded and committed will win the day. Inside each and everyone one us is a leader and champion ready to take charge and contend for the best in life. To make the best of life we have to change. In order t change we have to be leaders to ourselves.

We must take responsibility for where we are today and the results we want tomorrow. It is time to chart your course and get on with getting in your life. Put and end to aimless wandering and drifting. Decide that you will build a more meaningful existence for yourself and your loved ones. You need to open your eyes to new possibilities. You have to see where you want to go, establish why you must get there and choose to become the person it is going to take in order to get there.

Tips for a Successful Leader

Recently I came across the following words regarding leadership. They are really worth sharing.

A Leader must believe in teamwork through participation.He can never close the gap between himself and the group.He must walk,as it were, a tight rope between the consent he must win and the control he must exert.

Successful teamwork requires doing lots of unspectacular little things,contant attention to the details,building one-one relationships, following up on commitments and on obsessive concern for communicating information.

The way a team plays as a whole determines its success.

Six reasons why you should Smile

Smiles are the secret of the successful leaders.Given below are the six reasons why you should SMILE.

Smiles are instant Pick-Me-Ups.

Smiles make others Believe.

Smiles are Contagious.

Smiles make your Your eyes sparkle.

Smiles make your Dreams come true.

Smiles are stepping stones to Great things.

How do I change?

I came across the following passage and really felt that it is worth sharing. If I feel depressed I will sing. If I feel sad I will laugh. If I feel ill I will double my labour. If I feel fear I will plunge ahead. If I feel inferior I will wear new garments. If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice. If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come. If I feel incompetent I will think of past success. If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals. Today I will be the master of my emotions. Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt,Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today? Men who for truth and honor's sake Stand fast and suffer long. Brave men who work while others sleep, Who dare while others fly... They build a nation's pillars deep And lift them to the sky.

Reasons to submit your articles to article directories

Writers can truly benefit from submitting their articles to online Article Directories for publishers to view. Below is my list of the reasons you should write articles and allow them to be published online. • The first, most obvious benefit to you as a writer, is the opportunity to get your work published. • The second reason is FREE PUBLICITY! - Most article Directories online allow you to include a “resource box” at the end of your article. The resource box is your prospect to SELL yourself, your web site, your products, your services. • By writing articles on a specific topic, you can establish yourself as an expert in that field. • By submitting your work to article Directories and allowing web sites to publish it for free, you multiply the potential number of visitors to your site dramatically. • There are literally thousands of article Directories publishers online all looking for one thing - GREAT CONTENT. Your article(s) (if written well and about a popular subject) are definitely in demand. • It costs you nothing - not a dime - to submit your articles to article Directories for free online. The only thing that’s required of you is your time (and your ability to write a good article that people will want to read). Think about it - is there any other FREE way for writers to get published, recognized and publicized online? • By listing your work in article Directories, you have the opportunity to establish new contacts and lasting relationships with professional publishers online. • By getting your articles published online, you have opened the door for more traffic to your web site, new readers (possibly paying publishers and/or agents looking for good writers in a specific field), and name recognition across the web.

Motivation

Motivation is the compliance to exert towering levels of endeavor toward organizational goals, habituated by the effort's ability to satisfy some individual needs . For some business analysts, employee motivation is a good way to enhance yield in an organization. When people get motivated, they will have a rationale to put more efforts on what they are doing. Motivation is a essential management tool in elating the organization's work force's ability. Employers can motivate their workers as individuals, groups, teams, or the organization as a whole. Motivation takes forms like offering rewards, improving working conditions, or employee recognition.
