    advice pls - Choosing a keyword rich domain name

    Hi, Go to http://godaddy.com/, click on 'domains' -- 'register domains'. Then enter your possible domain name and hit enter. Godaddy will show you loads of other related domain names that aren't taken - with synonyms etc. It's a great took and I've used it for brainstorming, too!:)

    Marketing phrases that make you cringe

    I really hate when the commercials are trying to appeal to the environmental issues - by buying hybrid cars you contribute to the environment and all that sort of things. In reality no matter how 'environmentally friendly' the engine is - it still pollutes the atmosphere, but we're lead to...

    Pricing

    In business our personal feelings and opinions don't count -- what counts is what pulls in more sales.:cool: It's been proven by analyzing sales volume that figures ending with 7 and 9 convert better - simple as that. 17 or 19 will perform better than 20. And, by the way , 19.95 will outsell...

    Can you recommend a book or a site

    Definitely http://trafficsecrets.com/ by John Reese. He's the online marketing pioneer. I wouldn't agree. Online environment is full of technologically new features and options - they just don't exist offline. Therefore you can't just figure them out by looking at the offline world - it's a...
