Are you getting your site tweaked? Promoting to all the search engines? Do you have all the ads (free ads) out that will help your business grow? Have you gotten all your products listed on site with all information necessary to grow your business. Have you purchased the ads you wanted? Have you read all the newsletters and lists that you subscribed? Answered all the emails, re-written your ads to work better for you? Do you have all this done and time to surf the web for new and interesting items to pass on to your site visitor/customers? Have you had all the time necessary to do all these things and still have a normal family life, maybe still work another job too? I haven't, in fact, I haven't had time to accomplish a third of the things I need to get done. Somehow, I believe this could be a universal problem. It seem that so many things pop up that one feels immediate attention is necessary that it is hard to stay focused on the plan. Believe me, a plan is necessary and unless your memory is 100 percent at 100 percent of the time, I suggest you write you plan. Writing your plan out and staying focused on it by priorities will accomplish a couple of things. One - your 100 percent memory won't let you down (unless of course, you forgot to write it down in the first place) while you're working on your business. Two - and maybe even more important, you have the satisfaction of checking off your tasks as they are accomplished. In this way you are able to stay focused on the tasks that need be done, so if you have to stop and take care of other things (we all know that priority items have a habit of popping up at the most in-opportune times) you don't loose focus on what needs be done. Sometimes, the tasks that need be accomplished become so numerable that you need to stop, re-assess, re-group and re-start. I think we all pretty well agree that on the web site, content is king. But, I also believe that the customer is king and the tasks that must be accomplished should be with the customer in mind because without customers or visitors, a web site serves no useful purpose. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Don't forget to stop by http://bizjunction.com Sign up regularly to win a free vacation.

There are NO RULES on the Internet. It's the new frontier and WWW stands for Wild Wild Web. It's the Cyber-Land of the Free and the Domain of the Brave all right. "Free" is what sells and only the Brave-of-the-Brave entrepreneurs have figured out how to capitalize on the concept of Free. 2. There are NO EXPERTS yet on the Net. Quash the notion that there are "guru's" out there. There are just those of us who have paid our dues, invested time, spent money, consumed cartons of aspirin, and survived setbacks growing a little wider/wiser learning mostly what not to do. 3. Search Engines are NOT the end-all-and-be-all of Internet promotion. As a matter of fact, they continue to slip down the proverbial pole of importance as if their spidery limbs were greased with fresh Vaseline. The impressive growth of my company occurred without a single search engine placement (no, I'm not recommending you don't do it, just keep it in the proper perspective-I'm IN the engines now). 4. There are more "timesuckers" (people who thrive on wasting your time) per capita on the Web than in the Real World. Yards more "Yes" people (you know the type), scores more scam artists, droves more dreamers and virtual tons more self-anointed experts just waiting to sell you what they themselves know they have not figured out. And if they did have the definitive battleplan, then why would they sell that precious-as-plutonium information - it would only create their own myriad of competition. And how smart a marketing move would that be? 5. SEX STILL SELLS more than anything on the Internet. The most popular keywords remain verbiage I couldn't and wouldn't mention here or anywhere else in print. If there are any master marketers, it's the porn purveyors and it is they who should be selling how-to books on conquering cyberspace. I almost couldn't bare to keep abreast of this sickening trend:) 6. People are still falling all over themselves to lose their money and dreams and fail on dream-quenching send-my-check-to-the-beach-house MLM's. There are however, some very impressive network marketing companies that have surfaced in 1998 and will offer netizens viable business opportunities this year. 7. Microsoft will FINALLY face some real competition. Yahoo!! Oops, I mean the marriages involving AOL/ICQ/Netscape, Excite/@Home etc. Sadly, Billy has fallen at the same pace as the search engines down my most-admired list. 8. The Can-the-Spam Drive motors on at the speed of light. The Pro-UCE crusade has resorted to criminally mean tactics as the ultimate irony rings clearer than ever: NOTHING CREDIBLE COMES BY WAY OF SPAM. A sad result, the dial-ups of innocents are being terminated by over-zealous ISP's at the mere whisper of the gelled meat now. I know, I was a victim in 98 because some god-of-the-Web threw the switch on me over a misguided newsletter subscriber. 9. "The List" is the Real Estate of the Internet. ListBuilding, if not already, should be your numero-uno priority if you are an Internet marketer. If you're really coy, you'll sell something unique along the way to earn your ISP expenses, but the quicker you build a bonafide list, the sooner your cyber-retirement will come. A quick look at Internet Company stock prices and some of the incredible dollars fetched for "free" services that never earned a nickel is testament to the monetary value placed on The List. Build It and They Will Come to Buy You Out. 10. '99 will continue to be Fine. And interesting!
