-are You Using These Vital Rules To Start Your Online Business--_73583

If you have made up your mind about starting your own business on the internet, look away from your huge money-fall expectations and pay attention to these pieces of advice.

You can find tons of information on the subject online, but I can tell you that business on the internet is not so different from any other kind of business, so the basic rules are the same:
* Create a business plan and treat it as a living document, some parts of the initial plan will turn out successful, others will fail:

that's why you have to revise that plan at regular intervals and accommodate it according to the market rules.
* Do not trust companies that offer to build your web site, most of them will give you hard time altering the site or getting your source code.

You had better find a freelance designer, outsource the site design with him, then buy your own domain and settle the site yourself.
* Apply all conceivable precautions when you run a site that offers credit card payment.
* Think about providing yourself with an answering service in case you are likely to get many phone calls.
* Business is business, whether online or not. Bear that in mind and take your time to manage the inevitable offline issues. Many people get this wrong and accept their online business as a mere web site, which is a huge error.

As I said, business is business, so approach yours seriously!
* You should definitely include SEO (search engine optimization) into your business plan to make sure your web site enters the first ten search results. Its also a good idea to make some research on SEO methods or get a SEO consultant to help you with that issue.
* Successful marketing also involves tricks like getting your web address as a link on other sites, posting it on the back of your car or using the word-of-mouth methods.

You can also draw traffic to your site through Overture, Google Adword or similar advertising means by including certain low-bid keywords to your description.

Real-time sales will enable you to measure your ratio of this kind of traffic.

The Key to Starting Your Own Internet Business

Internet businesses are way more popular than work at home jobs. You can also make way more money with your own internet business than with a work at home job.

Why? Number 1 ofcourse, working for someone else only keeps you limited to how much money you can make.

As in working for yourself, the sky is the limit to how much you want to earn. There are many people who've become successful from starting there own internet businesses.

It takes persistence and determination to make your business profitable. The very most important thing in starting an internet business is finding your niche.

Without a niche, it would be very hard to stand out from the rest of the clutter on the internet.

What is a niche? A niche is a small segment of an audience from a general market. For example, lets say you want to sell antiques. This is the general market but with a broad audience. Now a niche from this market would be something like antique dishes.

You would only cater to this small segment. I know starting your own niche and all the business aspects of it would be a difficult process if you've never done this.

But there are web opportunities out there that have done the most important parts of this, where you won't have to do anything but put up a ready-made website and start advertising.

This is a great way to start an auto-pilot business or what I call a set it and forget it business, once these types of businesses are setup with a web host.

What is a web host you ask? A web host is where you can get your domainname or dotcom, and web space to put up your website.

You would only need to start advertising to establish constant traffic to generate a consistent cash flow.

One of the most critical things is the customer service. Building trust with your potential online customers is more difficult than that of traditional business. Trust is built by means of performance.

'father' Of The Internet_74793

Tim Berners-Lee, while working as an independent consultant at a nuclear research laboratory in 1980, developed an innovative way of storing information in a program named Enquire.

That work was later used as the foundation for the development of a global hypertext system - popularly known as the Internet or the World Wide Web.

The WWW was developed to increase the ease with which people could exchange information. This became a reality with the introduction of the first WYSWIG (What You See Is What You Get) hypertext web browser which was written by Tim Berners-Lee.

The advantage of the WWW over previous systems was the lack of a need for a centralized server. In short, this meant that it was just as easy to retrieve, as well as link to, a document that was down the hall as across the world.

This was a huge breakthrough in computing science.

The Web and the first web server were released to the hypertext communities in mid 1991, after being released within CERN in late 1990. In order to achieve a coherent standard for the WWW, specifications for URLs, HTML and HTTP were published.

The universality forced by these specifications, the non-dependence on a central server and decision by Berners-Lee not to profit from the WWW led to a high level of adoption of the technology between 1991-94. A ten fold increase in annual traffic was recorded on the first Web server during this period.

With the advent of the Web, a number of spin-off technologies have emerged. A vast array of server side, client side and database languages have been created to fulfill needs of businesses and individuals.

There are two types of programming languages used on the WWW: client-side and server-side.

A client-side language is executed in the users' browser and is not dependent upon the Web server. Client-side programming is done almost exclusively with JavaScript.

A server-side language executes on the Web server. In recent years server-side programming has become more popular than client-side programming because it is independent of the type of browser that the surfer is using. Programmers refer to this as being 'cross-platform'. Perl, PHP, ASP and JSP are popular client-side programming languages.

Databases have been developed to allow for 'dynamic' websites.

Dynamic websites allow for a high level of personalization when retrieving information.

Whenever you type in values in a form on a web page - whether those values are for a user id and password, the characteristics of your ideal partner or an author's name - it's a 'dynamic' web site. That is just a way of saying that there is a database being used to run the website.

Popular databases used include MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle.

An area of the WWW that Berners-Lee has direct involvement is in his role as the Director of the World Wide Web Consortium (WC3) which has existed since 1994.

The aim of the WC3 is to achieve coherent standards between all companies using web technologies such as HTML, CSS and XML. Prior to the creation of the standards detailed by the WC3, companies used different standards, which led to potential incompatibilities. The WC3 remedied this by creating an open forum - allowing companies to agree on core standards for WWW technologies.

The future of Berners-Lee's influence on modern computing is in the context of the Semantic Web. 'Semantic' means 'meaning'.

A semantic web is one where elements that appear in a document hold some meaning that can be automatically processed by a machine in some form of data gathering. Currently, documents on the WWW written in HTML hold no meaning ?they're presentation based.

Tim Berners-Lee laid the conceptual foundation for the World Wide Web. It was his initial idea to create a way where information could be freely and easily exchanged. The standards associated with it and the lack of reliance upon a central server, gave the Web a cross platform advantage and independence, which led to its meteoric rise in popularity.

In turn, its popularity spawned and popularized many different programming languages, databases, markup standards, servers - as well as - viruses and worms.

However, while Tim Berners-Lee is the 'father' of the Internet, its development over the years is a result of the efforts of an extraordinary number of individuals. There is little question that 500 or 1,000 years from now, historians will look at the invention of the Internet as one of those rare, seminal historical events - much like Gutenberg's printing press.

Atlanta Schools Promoting Healthy Minds & Bodies_37231

Atlanta Schools' "Wellness" Workshops Promote Nutrition and Physical Education

When Atlanta Schools opened at the end of August, a new project was initiated. The "Wellness" Workshop Project kicked off the school year with a workshop that included Olympic gold medalist Gail Devers, author Yvonne Butler, 300 students from the Atlanta School District, faculty members, and community leaders. This was the first ever Atlanta Schools' "wellness" workshop. Atlanta Schools' Margaret Fain Elementary School's Wings of Eagles dance troupe performed to illustrate how much physical energy is used in dance.

The first "Wellness" Workshop was co-chaired by Dr. Marilyn Hughes, the director of nutrition administration for Atlanta Schools, and Billette Owens-Ashford, Atlanta Schools' director of physical education and athletics. The goal of the "Wellness" Workshop Project is improve the health of the students by identifying health-related problems. It has been proven that health related issues can often have a direct affect on a student's academic achievement.

The inaugural "Wellness" Workshop for the Atlanta Schools had a variety of speakers and displays that provided resources on nutritional based activities and physical education activities. The keynote speaker was Dr. Yvonne Butler. Dr. Butler is a noted author whose book, "Healthy Kids, Smart Kids," discusses the impact of diet and exercise on learning and academic performance. Other speakers included Olympic track-and-field gold medalist Gail Severs who spoke about importance of exercise to health and how to stay physically fit.

Atlanta Schools' "Wellness" Workshop Project is part of a broad program that aims to provide both fitness and nutrition strategies for students and staff in all Atlanta Schools. Innovative strategies that will be used include yoga classes for teachers and students, vegetarian cafeteria lines, and walking trails. The overall plan was developed by the Atlanta Schools' Board of Education. The Board of Education will offer guidelines on how to implement the program and how the schools will be evaluated.

A major part of the plan is establishing wellness councils. These councils will be comprised of teachers, parents, administrators, students, and community and business partners. The council will assist Atlanta Schools in integrating nutrition and physical education into the current curriculum. The wellness council will also have a presence at events throughout the Atlanta Schools.

Recently, Atlanta Schools' wellness plan received a boost from the involvement of an Atlanta Schools' parent. Linton Hopkins has two children attending E. Rivers Elementary School. Hopkins is concerned about the nutritional value of cafeteria offerings at the E. Rivers Elementary School but unlike other parents, Hopkins is the executive chef of Atlanta's Restaurant Eugene and winner of this year's Atlanta "Iron Chef" competition. Hopkins has joined the Local School Wellness Council to help evaluate the school's cafeteria. Hopkins isn't the only trained chef to join the E. Rivers Elementary School's wellness council. Elisa Gambino, owner of pasta emporium Via Elisa, has along with eleven other parents joined the wellness council. Parental involvement is an important element to the success of the wellness councils. Currently, approximately 90 percent of Atlanta Schools' elementary and 65 percent of high schools have parents actively involved with the wellness council of their school.

Earlyact First Knight Implemented In Lake Travis Schools_44176

Developed by Rotarian Chris Byrd and Founder and Executive Director of Knights of the Guild, Randall Parr, EAFK developed into an unprecedented character education program that would put Rotary ideals into the daily academics of mainstream K-8 education for the first time ever. The EAFK approach to teaching character education creatively integrates the instruction of noble character traits with the exciting theme of gallant knights and chivalry.

There is a huge ethical impairment in this country. When one hears, watches or read the news and look at popular culture these days, one sees people who are hardly role models for our kids. There are people in politics, sports and entertainment that are sending the wrong message to the children of this country. The way to reverse that is by catching children early in life and that is exactly what EarlyAct First Knight does.

In many schools across our country,fake uggs boots, we see bullying, dishonesty, irresponsibility, disrespect, hatred, cheating, jealousy, greed, and a lack of tolerance of others. This sort of behavior can manifest itself outside the schools through things like substance abuse, crime, gangs and violence. We are even seeing kids attacking other kids and posting videos of the assault on youtube and other video sharing websites. In other schools, we see conceit, arrogance and elitist behavior. All of this has to stop and EarlyAct First Knight can help build the kind of moral and ethical ideals in our children early in life so that they can be of better character as young adults and beyond.

Students from Kindergarten through eight grade have in their daily curriculum a ten minute lesson,cheap hermes birkin, discussion or activity on ethics and character. In addition, there is an EAFK community service club at the schools and all students in the school can become members. The Rotary motto of Service Above Self is taught to the children at EAFK Club meetings. Students recite the Rotary Four Way Test every day during school and at each bimonthly service club meeting.

Lakeway Elementary and Lake Travis Middle School both implemented EAFK in January, 2009. They are the first schools in Rotary District 5870 to have EarlyAct First Knight Clubs. The show on January 23 had the kids completely engaged. Sir Randall had the students attention the entire time and worked character, service and Rotary into the program masterfully. He even had the students and teachers recite the Four Way Test for the first time ever. The program was absolutely inspirational to watch and listen to.

At Lake Travis Middle School (LTMS), Sir Randall has been coming to school-wide assemblies every Thursday for three weeks. These assemblies are part of what was already planned to be a 10 week program. At each assembly, fully armored,chanel ceramic j12, Randall talks about a character trait and he tells a story about a knight who exemplified that specific character trait. The kids sit listening, absolutely captivated by what they hear and eager for more.

At each LTMS assembly, Randall also talks about the garments and armor that knights wore. He talks about the weapons of the times and the conditions. He usually gets a student to volunteer to come up and model a piece of equipment. One week it was a boy modeling a jousting helmet. One week it was a girl modeling chain mail as protection for a knight�s head. While the kids are being thoroughly entertained, they are learning and they don�t even seem to realize that they are learning about service and character.

Once a month there will be school-wide Knighting Ceremonies. The first at Lakeway Elementary will be February 27. Students will be recognized achievements that involve ethics, character or noble deeds. These ceremonies will be emceed by Rotarians. Students can achieve the ranks of Page, Squire or Knight. Not only will students, faculty and staff be present, but parents will be invited. These ceremonies will not just recognize students, they will be a way to get Rotary more exposure in the community.

For a typical EarlyAct First Knight Club, there will be around 90% or more of students in the school participating in the EAFK service club. We, as Rotarians, need to roll this program all through our District. We need to roll it out all over the state and we need to encourage clubs throughout the country to buy in. If we can get EarlyAct First Knight rolled out throughout the country,replica rado watches, think of what our kids can be like in 10 years. Think of the impact they can have in college and beyond.
