The other alternative, usually called "private registration", is a little different. Here your name would still appear as registrant. You would provide names of admin and technical contacts. But address, email and phone number would be provided and monitored by organization handling private registration in essentially same manner as a proxy registration. Thus with this alternative you remain in full legal control of your domain name since it is registered in your name rather than name of a proxy.

On face of it this second alternative sounds better, but your name is hanging out there on view and you may have valid reasons for not wanting that (perhaps company you work for takes a dim view of moonlighting, or you have had a stalking problem or are doing something perfectly legitimate but don't want your name linked to it).In that case, a proxy registration is only real alternative.

In case you're thinking you can hide out and do whatever sort of bad stuff behind a proxy or private registration, don't even dream about it. These outfits take it very personally if you misbehave and legal agreements spell it out.

If you decide to pursue a proxy or private registration, make very sure that you are working with a legitimate company with a track record. A domain name can be a very valuable possession. Both your registrar and, if it's a separate organization, entity that does proxy or private registration must be quality, legitimate outfits. Registrars offering extremely low prices which are way out of line with going rates - unless it's a special - just might be after your credit card and identity. Also, this time, actually read agreement and TOS so you do know what you're doing and what could happen under what circumstances.

Wondering why I'm writing about this? Well, it's because I'm getting more and more spam and I started doing some research on possible solutions. And I figured, I wan't only one looking to do something about problem. And then, I discovered that some registrars will provide free proxy or private registration with your domain name purchase. So think about it and do some checking before you buy a domain name. Your privacy is a precious possession.

The BIGGEST benefit you'll receive by incorporating RSS into your online business is... your customers and/or subscribers will receive 100% of your Product and/or Service offers.

I'm going to say that again, "your customers and/or subscribers will receive 100% of your Product and/or Service offers".

No other online technology offers this benefit.

Just imagine increased response to your offers, which in turn will convert into more Sales and Profits for you and your online business.

Rest assured, you could sleep at night knowing that your messages are reaching 100% of your Target audience without worry of SPAM filters mistakenly marking your email as "SPAM" and that all that time you spent putting your offer together didn't go to waste.

Would you then consider RSS?

I think you would. But, that is just my opinion.

There are many others benefits to using RSS which you can read about in a earlier article I wrote by clicking on this link -- http://www.internetwondersezine.com/article_15.html -- since there are too many to list within this article.

Things are changing online, so we must change with it and adapt any new technologies we can in order to get most out of our time and online businesses.

So, with that said, if your a "Permission Email Marketer" and your not happy with results your currently getting from using "Email", then you might want to consider switching to "RSS".

100% delivery rate is unheard of with Email, but, is GUARANTEED with RSS(Rich Site Summary or Real Simple Syndication).
