Chitika Research: Clickers Are More Likely to Click

MARLBOROUGH, 11/25/2009 – People who search by clicking the button on Google’s homepage are fifty percent more likely to go on to click an ad than people who search by any other Google means, according to online ad network Chitika. The study, which looked at just over 11 million impressions, shines a light on the possibility and importance of being able to predict web users’ activity.

When comparing the different types of traffic that come through their advertising network, the researchers at Chitika compared the different types of Google traffic – people who click on the “Google Search” button, people who search by hitting the enter key, people who search from browser toolbars, etc. While the overall clickthrough rate for the entire Google-searching sample was 0.95%, the people who searched by clicking on the search button at Google.com clicked ads at a 1.56% rate, over half again higher.

Official: Water has been discovered on the Moon

Since man first touched the moon and brought pieces of it back to Earth, scientists have thought that the lunar surface was bone dry. But new observations from three different spacecraft have put this notion to rest with what has been called "unambiguous evidence" of water across the surface of the moon.

The new findings, detailed in the Sept. 25 issue of the journal Science, come in the wake of further evidence of lunar polar water ice by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter and just weeks before the planned lunar impact of NASA's LCROSS satellite, which will hit one of the permanently shadowed craters at the moon's south pole in hope of churning up evidence of water ice deposits in the debris field.

Google is being challenged by Bing - Google Vs Microsoft

It keeps getting interesting as it's no longer news that SE domination of Google over the years is getting a hot chase, well i'm still wondering how this would happen but it's all over the news

Check this out; from Jeff Bertolucci. Contact via Twitter at jbertolucci.blogspot.com .

Given undistinguished history of Microsoft's late and unlamented Live Search engine, the predecessor to Bing, it's easy to dismiss Redmond as a hapless also-ran in the search market. But given the vast sums of money and resources that Microsoft is investing in its fledging Google challenger, this could change in a hurry.

Get a Brand New 200GB Laptop at N15,000 only - Gideon Bankole's Blog

Just like you, I thought it was too good to be real to own a Brand New 200GB Laptop at N15,000 only. But I love to verify claims before making conclusions, and amazingly I found that this is actually real. So I have carefully prepared this FREE report to help you get yours too. Here, I’ve provided answers to your likely questions. Please carefully read every bit of this material and tell all your friends too… they’ll be thankful.

Why N15,000 Laptop?

You and I know how important it is to own a laptop in today’s world. Unfortunately, because of the cost of acquiring a good one, personal laptops are unaffordable for most Africans.
www.flipafrica.org/pt041123823, E-mail: info@flipafrica.org, Tel: 01-8507480, 08069606633 or 08059211033. Note that you cannot access any information or register if you don't go through a referral link.

That is, www.flipafrica.org/pt041123823 the acceptable link. To get to their office by public transport from Ikeja, board a bus going to Ojodu and alight at Omole bus stop, or from Berger, board a bus going to Ikeja and Alight at Omole bus stop, or from Berger. It’s pretty easy to locate their office.

How does it work?

There are 5 packages in all, each with different laptop specifications. Please visit flipafrica.org/pt5437 for the package specifications and choose the one that best suit your taste. To get your laptop under any package, you’re required to introduce a certain number of people (e.g. 3 people for Bronze, 4 for Silver… etc) to register through you.
1. Bronze (Requires 3 people)
2. Silver (Requires 4 people)
3. Gold (Requires 5 people)
4. Platinum (Requires 6 people)
5. Diamond (Requires 7 people As soon as the required number of people registers through you, a congratulatory SMS will be sent to you and then your laptop will be delivered to you.

How do I register?

1. Pay N15,000 (non-refundable "partnership fee") into any of their bank accounts. (I deliberately didn’t include their account numbers here because I want you to also visit flipafrica.org/pt041123823 to personally get information about the initiative and ask them any further questions you may have).

2. Decide the package you’re ok with and fill the registration form. NOTE THAT your payment bank teller number will be required, so keep it safe. A confirmatory text message and e-mail containing your referral code will be sent into your phone and e-mail address as soon as your payment is confirmed.

The referral code included in that message is what you’ll give your friends to register with. More benefits?Yes! You’ll be paid N2,000 for every additional person who registers using your referral code after you must have gotten your laptop. That is, if 200 people registers with referral code after you have your laptop, you’ll be paid N2,000 X 200 = N400,000! (Now you should understand what I’m up to).

How do I get people?

The same reason you’re interested is the same reason your friends will be interested, because everyone needs a laptop. For instance, I had a laptop before I heard about this initiative… and I got another through FLIP Africa barely 2 weeks from the day I first heard about it just by telling my friends. As at the moment I was preparing this, 5 out of the 7 folks that registered through me already have their laptops! Well, back to how to get people:

1. Tell your friends. If they don’t believe you, have them contact me (Gideon: 08060071837 or through email: bankolegideon@yahoo.com

2. Prepare an explanatory material like this and e-mail it to all your e-mail contacts

3. Tell people online on Face Book, Chat Rooms, and other Social Networking websites The truth is, everyone needs this, and you’ll be doing people a BIG favor by informing them how they can acquire a laptop with just N15,000. You’ll be surprised at how much result you’ll generate! So what are you waiting for?

I've checked it out and it's real. You might want to do the same.

Selling and Making Money Online With Email Marketing

Marketing through the use of email is a simple method of marketing in a direct fashion. An electronic message is sent out to a targeted audience as a level of communication for the purpose and intent of promoting and/or instructing a service and/or product. Email marketing is a common type of direct response marketing in today's virtual business world, it is important that you know a few of the "secrets" of standing out above the rest. Here, I will share some of the secrets to making money online with email marketing.

The first success strategy when it comes to making money online with this type of marketing is to make certain that you avoid "buying" email lists from the many different companies that focus on providing these lists. This may be tempting, but it is best if you create email lists by true visitors to your website that elect to sign up, or "opt in" for the emails. These are visitors will visit your website, and will be interested enough to sign up for your newsletters to learn about what you have to offer them. You will find that your email marketing campaign is much more successful if you work in this manner.

Making Money Online for Rookies

The are many ways to make money online these days. Some tell you create an online store selling the latest most popular products. Others tell you to find a cheap wholesaler and sell products on eBay. Then there are some who say why sell physical products when you can sell digital products and save on shipping costs. All three ways are good ways of making money from home but it can get confusing in choosing the right one which is right for you as a beginner.

1) Online Store
In an online store you would setup a website which is filled with the latest popular products, like iPods, iPhones, Nintendo Wii systems and accessories etc. You would first have to first find a cheap wholesaler who can provide you with these products for cheap prices so you can sell it for profit. Then you need setup the website listing the products which is integrated with some sort of credit card payment system. Pros: Physical products that are already popular are easy to sell. Cons: Profit margin can be very low, setup can be tricky for a newbie.

How to Make and promote your own online videos

In the recent years, the popularity of online video websites has skyrocketed. Online video websites are websites that not only allow internet users to watch the videos that are hosted on their site, but many also give internet users the opportunity to create their own videos. If you are interested in making your online video, like a large number of individuals are, there are some important factors that you should keep in mind. One of those factors is your safety.

What is nice about online video websites is that you can create just about any video you want. A number of popular video websites have rules and restrictions on the content that is allowed; however, it is understandable. These restrictions often prohibit videos with threats and pornographic materials. Even with these restrictions in place, there are still a wide variety of different videos that you can make, but you are still advised to be cautious when doing so.

How and Where to Research the best and highest paying Keywords

Most online searches, whether for information or products, begin with a keyword being typed into a search engine like Google, Yahoo, MSN, or any one of several hundred others.

Keyword research will tell you which keywords are most popular, so you can optimize the wording of your webpages and get attention and better ranking from search engines. Keyword research will also tell you which keywords to target in pay per click advertising campaigns. But those actions are all somewhere in the future. Right now, all we want to do is identify a potentially profitable market. Good keyword research can also do that.

Internet Marketing in Nigeria: Get Information

Nancy Kline a U.S author once said, “Withholding information from someone is an act of intellectual imperialism. Not bothering to seek accurate information is an act of intellectual recklessness” and I quite agree with that. Sometimes, there are always problems when seeking accurate information but basically, the problem is always “Not bothering to seek information” and this affects us particularly if you are from Africa or probably Nigeria.

A lot of us (Nigerians) suffer due to lack of knowledge. A lot of is wrong with the average Nigerian Youth mindset; we keep looking outside for the safest alternative of searching for jobs, very few are willing to look inwards and build greatness and wealth out of themselves. It’s a mediocre mindset if all you think of is to graduate and get yourself slaved in a company that belongs to another graduate and most times; a school drop-out.

Why Internet Marketing will thrive in Nigeria during this crisis

“The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word 'crisis'. One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger-but recognize the opportunity.” John F Kennedy.

One growth area in a global economy is the internet based economy. This will see growth levels in the future, as people look for an income through the Internet, as more traditional jobs become scarce. As Companies look to cut costs, and people look to find an income in economies that are shedding jobs, rather than creating them. One natural place to look is the Internet. Nigeria has a very irregular economic condition and people are beginning to source for new avenues on the internet. Recently there has been high graduate turnout for youth services and employment rates have reduced by about 75%.
