Its no secret that JVs (joint ventures) and
cross promotions are one of the most productive
ways to make high volumes of sales on the
Internet.

Today I want to talk about why they work so
well, and how you can make the most of them to
explode your online income.

Traditionally, JVs are most common between two
people who have created a product and are
selling it online. But that needn’t be the case
and I will tell you shortly of a way in which
you can get all the benefits, traffic and sales
of a JV without even having a product of your
own.

But first lets look at the principals of it:
What actually happens in a JV cross-promotion?

Webites promote other websites for two main
reasons:

1. To earn income from commission sales.

2. To pay, or earn, favors.

The first of these you might expect, the second
is more intricate.

You see, when you’re running an online business,
your options and your growth are restricted if
you try doing it all on your own.

Sure, there’s pay-per-click advertising, article
marketing, traffic exchangers, and a variety of
ways you can draw traffic to your site by paying
for it.

But nothing beats personal recommendation.

Its human nature: We all prefer to buy through
personal recommendation than by enticing
advertisements.

And JV’s, or cross-promotions are all about
personal recommendation.

The only thing is - as every super-affiliate
knows - even if you’re offering attractive
commission rates, the site that’s getting
promoted always gets more out of the deal than
the JV partner who’s doing the promoting. Look
at this comparision:

The JV partner doing the promotion gets:

1. A ‘notional’ favour from the site it
promotes.
2. Commission payments, hopefully paid in good
time but always at the discretion of the site
owner.

The site being promoted gets:

1. Lots of new list members
2. Lots of Sales
3. Lots of recognition

Which would you rather?

Can you see now why the benefit isn’t split
evenly in a JV deal?

This is one of the reasons why it is more
difficult than many people think to get JV
partners promoting for you.

No matter how attractive your commission
percentages are, you will always be getting more
out of the deal than your JV partner. Especially
if your landing page is a list-building squeeze
page.

But there is an option available. Especially if
your aim is to build a list.

You could run a MyViralSpiral site.

MyViralSpiral is a webserver script that gives
you a complete solution for building a list and
a business online.

One of its features is that it turns the above
JV example on its head to provide more of a win-
win for both parties. Here’s what you can do
with it:

As a listbuilder, you can offer a squeeze page
for your JV partner to promote. He then sends
his list to the squeeze page, where they sign up
to your list. Then, this is when it gets
interesting:

Your JV partner can decide which offer page his
signups are directed to after signup.

Gone is the traditional method whereby once his
leads have signed up to you they’re yours, to
direct wherever you like. With MVS, your JV
partner can choose what to show them after
they’ve joined your list…

It might be to his own product, or an affiliate
link somewhere else - or he may choose to use
his affiliate link for your product (in keeping
with the normal method).

The point is, your JV partner has more say about
who benefits from his promotion and how. And
that kind of power makes all the difference when
it comes to getting others to promote for you,
and build your list.

This is one of many characterisics of
MyViralSpiral that make it well worth a good
look if you want to start building JV
relationships.

Shake Lights - Fake or Not? by: Shake Lights

The Truth About Shake Lights or Shake Flashlights.

There Are Two Types On The Market Today. Read more below:

(Type 1) Non-Rechargeable Shake Lights w/Lithium Batteries and LED Bulbs:

The Type 1 Shake Lights are actually not rechargeable and run on two lithium batteries. If you know about lithium batteries, they last for years and are used on such items as lawn sprinklers, smoke alarms and cameras to ensure years of backup power. But the truth is the shake and rechargeable part of it is false and does not work. But these are still a great value. Why?

Think about a typical flashlight that takes batteries. Most flashlights take 4 D-size batteries which have an average price of $8. If you put these new batteries in a flashlight and turned it on how long would the power last? 2 Hours? Maybe 3 Hours? And you are out $8 plus the cost of the flashlight.

You would spend $80 to power a regular flashlight for the same amount of time.

Why does this matter? We conducted a series of tests to determine the average ‘light-life” of these lights by leaving them on until they went out. Each light tested lasted a minimum of 30 hours before they got dim and some even over 40 hours of continuous use! Even if you left the light on for 5 minutes each time you used it, this would last between 360 to 480 times of use! All for $6.99! For the price of about one set of D batteries you could have 10 times the life of these batteries. And do not forget D batteries often get rusty or that toxic battery acid type stuff on them.

Do you want your wife, child or relative changing batteries with battery acid oozing out?

The Type 1 Lights are the ones sold on Shake-Lights.com. We consider these the best value for your hard-earned money.

(Type 2) “As Seen On TV” Rechargeable Shake Lights

Almost impossible to find anymore.

Type 2 shake lights look very similar to Type 1. These are from the famous “As Seen on TV” ads and are not really being sold much today. These do have magnets and recharging ability, But as you use them the working ability diminishes into nothing and you are left with a inferior product in our opinion. Every rechargeable cell wears out after repeated use. So at some point they will not work. Also, magnets lose their magnetic ability when they are moved around, and rechargeable powered devices lose power when not used. How many times did you charge something, and if not used in a long time the battery is dead? Same story here.

Do you want to grab your flashlight and have to shake it for 30 seconds before use? Imagine you hear a noise in the house…. do you want to make noise shaking a flashlight? NO! In a tight spot fixing something? How can you shake this light? Seems impractical.

Why do all these lights look the same?

Money. The idea was based on principle but not cost effective and practical (which means PROFITABLE). So these manufacturers, who had tons of these units already made, adapted them to work with lithium batteries. This was a brilliant idea since they last much longer than regular lights and are much lighter. For the price you cannot beat them!

Here are some uses of the Shake Lights:

• Take it camping or on a trip
• Throw one in each of your cars
• Give one to Grandma if power goes out!
• Put under your bed to scare your wife with late night stories
• On top of refrigerator for late night snacks
• In the back of the closet for the storage you cannot identify
• For guests to get around your house.
• Fuse Panel or Circuit breaker box

WHY DO MOST PEOPLE FAIL?

Most of the information you need to successfully start an Internet business is available, so why do most people still fail?

Here’s something very, very important… everything you need to make money online or offline is available to you right now… the problem is, “who do you trust?” and “what do you believe?”.

It’s scary to have to ‘commit’… you’re not sure if what course of action you decide to take will pay off or not.

You’re afraid to waste your time in activities that will not bring you closer to your financial and personal goals. You are right to be cautious… but don’t confuse being cautious with being prudent.

Sometime the most prudent thing to do is to take action even when you do not have all the facts…!

Just getting started is the best course of action. Pick a target and shoot! If you miss the target, you move on to the next one.

I guarantee you one thing: Doing nothing will for certain get you one thing: NOTHING.

Taking action toward your ‘what you want’ will always win… even if you start wrong, it’s better than sitting still. As you move toward something you create ‘course corrections’, refine your strategy, learn from your mistakes but YOU KEEP ON MOVING.

Most of the information in ebooks is OK… some of it is pretty bad advice.

But you know by now that you need more than advice… you need a ‘model’ to follow and a plan if you’re going to be successful online.

WHY MOST PEOPLE DON’T GET IT

In a world with almost infinite possibilities and infinite options people are more CONFUSED about ‘what to do’ than ever before.

The above is part of what I learned from a lessons series that changed me from being a loser to being a winner.

Blu-Ray set to take the world by storm! By: Paul Colbert

The Blu-ray Disc belongs to a new generation of optical discs capable of staging high density data. Blu-Ray technology is based on a blue-violet coloured laser. The blue laser operates at a wave length of 405 nm, while older technology such as DVDs and CDs are based on red and infrared lasers that works at 650 and 780 nm. Since the wave length is shorter with a blue laser, the new Blu-ray technology makes is possible to store much more information

The advantage with the Blu-ray technology is that the laser beam can be focused much more tightly at the surface of the disc. Tight focus means that a smaller spot will be produced on the surface on the disc, and when the spots become smaller there will naturally be room for more information on each disc. The minimum spot size of any laser depends on a naturally accruing phenomenon called diffraction. The narrow beam of light sent out from a laser will always diverge into a wider beam eventually, due to the natural diffraction of waves. Diffraction will also occur the waves meet an obstruction. By reducing the wavelength of a laser, we can affect the diffraction.

In Blu-ray technology, the diffractions is also affected by the fact that the lens used to focus the light has a higher numerical aperture than the lenses found in ordinary DVDs - 0.85 instead of 0.6. Blu-ray technology based appliances are also equipped with a dual-lens system of supreme quality, and the cover layer has been made thinner in order to prevent unwanted optical effects. All this makes it possible for a Blu-ray laser to focus on much smaller spots. The optical improvements are accompanied with a new method for encoding data which makes it possible to store even more data on the Blu-ray disc.

The standard for Blu-ray technology has been developed as a joint venture between several major manufacturers of PCs and consumer electronics, including Sony and Philips. The group is called the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA). The first Blu-ray recorder was launched in Japan in 2003, by Sony. Today, Samsung, JVC, Matsushita (Panasonic) and LG Electronics are all examples of companies using Blu-ray technology in their products. Hewlett Packard has announced that they will release desktop PCs equipped with Blu-ray technology in late 2005.

The main competitor for the Blu-ray technology is the HD DVD format which is also capable of storing more information than a normal DVD. The Blu-ray technology does however allow for more information per layer than the HD DVD format - 25 GB compared to 15 GB. The Blu-ray technology will on the other hand most likely be more expensive to support, at least initially, which can make the HD DVD a tempting alternative. In a Blu-ray disc, the data is stored extremely close to the surface. This made the first Blu-ray discs extremely vulnerable to scratching and many users preferred the tougher HD DVD discs. Since 2004, all Blu-ray discs are coated with a clear polymer called “Durabis” which makes them much more durable. According to the developers of Durabis, the TDK Corporation, a coated Blu-ray disc will work even after being attacked with a screwdriver.

Some of the best income opportunities online today are using some type of automation. The more automation you use, the less hours you need to spend in front of your computer doing tedious repetitive work. Not everything can be automated, but there are many tasks that can be.

Some things will almost always need to be done manually. Directory submissions, for example, are best done manually. Each directory may require different information. Article submission, when done correctly, should also be done manually.

Setting up an autoresponder to constantly send your prospect or customer information is an example of automation. If you plan ahead, you autoresponder can send messages on a set schedule to continuously inform your prospect or customer about your home based business opportunity.

Always check and double check your automation once it is set up. Be sure to add yourself to the autoresponder to make sure that it is working the way you had planned and that the messages look as you expected them. Better to tweak it now than before you start sending out messages.

Then all you need to do is drive traffic to your opt-in page and let your autoresponder messages act as your salesmen.

If you are planning on having a website, then you need a web-host. Just because you have a domain name doesn’t automatically mean that yoursite.com will be up on the web and visible to the rest of the world. You have to have that domain name hosted on a server in order for it to officially be a website.

That’s where having a web-host comes into the picture. There are hosting companies out there that provide this necessary service so you don’t have to worry about the technical aspect of setting up a server, DNS, etc.

These companies handle the technical side of things to make your life easier. The only challenge you’ll face is finding the right one amongst the thousands of hosting companies that are available. And one thing that is for sure is that many of them are not good at all.

You have to make sure you choose the web-host that is right for your needs, whether it be for personal use or business use. Either way, you can’t just choose any old host.

Some things you will want to consider when selecting a web-host is if they provide 24 hour emergency customer service, the amount of bandwidth they give you, how many sites you can host on one account, etc. For starters, if they don’t offer 24 hour emergency service and you are planning on running a business online, I wouldn’t recommend you use that particular company.

Just make sure you do your research before making your selection. Join some discussion forums with people that are in a similar niche or area of interest and pick their brains about this. There are only a few good hosts out there worth using. If you have your site hosted already, I would look into whether or not they are a good company just in case you just picked them just for the sake of picking them.

In conclusion, choose your hosting company wisely as they will be an integral part of your website and Directly affect your business as long as you use them. To give you a competitive edge, I have arranged something special for you…

One of the fastest growing segments of the skin care industry is natural skin care. Many people want to remove synthetic chemicals from their lives in general and this includes what they put on their skin. Manufacturers, for the most part, decide what is called organic or natural. For our purposes these terms refer to ingredients derived from nature, such as plants and the earth; with a minimal amount of processing.

Organic ingredients are natural products that have been raised without the use of chemical or petroleum based fertilizers. Organic is best because natural fertilizers return macro- and micro-nutrients to the soil, making the resulting plants more concentrated in effective nutrients. A label that claims to be organic does not automatically mean that it’s so. You need to look on the label for a recognized organic certification seal to be assured of a product’s purity.

One of the trendiest natural skin care ingredients is shea butter (derived from the shea tree). It works as an anti-inflammatory, emollient or moisturizer. It is a panacea for skin conditions. It is useful in battling scars, spots, dry skin, psoriasis, wrinkles, acne, blotches, and on and on. Shea butter’s main downside is the fluctuation in price due to its limited supply. Great Prices On Shea Butter Here. .

Honey is the oldest recorded natural skin care remedy. Evidence shows that Egypt’s queen Cleopatra even used it as a beauty treatment. Honey has stood the test of time and is still used today in many products - from facial masks to hair conditioner. Honey has three properties that make it an excellent choice for skin care:

1) Antioxidant - destroys the free radicals that destroy cells, including skin cells.

2) Anti-microbial - kills the internal and external germs that cause blemishes.

3) Humectant - absorbs and retains moisture, keeping skin hydrated, smooth, and wrinkle-free.

Oats not only have humectant properties, but are mildly abrasive. Adding oats to your bathwater relieves the itching associated with eczema, chicken pox or poison ivy, etc. and hydrates dry skin. Oats make a wonderful soluble exfoliating facial scrub. Besides being beneficial to the skin, oats are an excellent food to eat, helping the skin from the inside out.

Late night infomercials tout the benefits of earth derived mineral cosmetics. These are natural and tend to be made with little refining. Most of the minerals are safe, but a few may have troubling effects. Consult your dermatologist if you have concerns about any specific ingredients. Application can be tricky so it may be helpful to apply a base of shielding lotion.

Organic and natural products have their place in any skin care regimen. Even if you find you prefer the skin care chemical engineers have provided us, it’s a sure bet that you can work in natural products into your routine.
