What can lots of content do for your site?Written by Matt Colyer
Today there are so many web sites on web, but so few of them have good content and there are even fewer web sites that have large amounts of content. Why is web like this? For one most webmasters are trying to make a quick buck and others don't know where to begin or are too lazy to do work.Content really is king! Why? because visitors will stay longer or will come back more often and they are more likely to buy from your business. Visitors know you are an expert in your site's topic because you write informative articles, which leads visitor to trust your business more. And to your visitors it's all about trust because if they can't trust your business, how can they trust product/service you sale or how can they even know that they will receive product/service. Most of time before an Internet surfer buys a product they will search web to get more information about it. Sometimes they are just looking to see how it really works or maybe they want to know more about a certain feature. If you write articles about your products, surfers are more likely to find your web site in search engine and you may even steal a few sales from your competitor, which will result in more sales for you!
| | 5 Ways to Enhance Your CreativityWritten by Shery Ma Belle Arrieta-Russ
We're born creative. However, this innate characteristic becomes buried as we get older. Our logical left brain usually takes driver's seat. Here are 5 ways to help you unearth your creative self. 1. Surprise Your Mind. List laughable, ridiculous, outrageous and bizarre ideas. Don't limit yourself to ideas that other people consider "sane," "reasonable" or "logical." The best and most creative ideas stem from silly ones. When you're in a creative mode, you're suspending judgment on ideas you generate. You simply list them all down and never worry whether they make sense or not. Allow yourself freedom to think outside box. 2. Aim for Quantity. Generate loads of ideas for you to go through later. It's normal that your first few ideas won’t really be fresh. The gems will come out later so it’s important to keep going. With a large list of ideas, you'll have more to choose from, adapt or combine. Creativity is not coming up with something new from nothing; creativity is ability to create something novel from ideas/things that already exist by combining, improving or refining them. 3. Be Playful. A relaxed and playful attitude fosters creativity. Those creative juices flow best when you're not restrained by your logical, left brain. Toy with ideas and forget about being too careful. Be a child again and play.
