| How Important are Customer Testimonials? |
Whether it is a testimonial a customer gives to you to post on your site or a testimonial you give to someone to post on their site, Customer Testimonials are very important part of marketing!
Testimonials from happy customers are a valuable addition to your business marketing materials and your web site. Glowing comments from those who have had a good experience with your product or service as well as successful relationships you have had with your customers and clients are great for publishing on your web site. They show visitors how successfully you have dealt with previous customers.
How can giving someone else a testimonial benefit you? If you are quoted on a high-traffic web site as being very pleased with a product or service offered there, you will most likely be given a hypertext link to your web site. This is done as a courtesy from most businesses as a way to say "Thank You for your Compliment". It lends a sense of credibility to your comments because people have the option of visiting your site to see who you are or follow up with you on the comments in your testimonial.
When you offer testimonials, they can be from virtually any site you've done business with or for any product you've used. A link is a link is a link. Most everyone knows that links increase search engine rankings - right? The testimonial linking technique doesn't require reciprocal links because you aren't likely to have done business with a competitor. The additional benefit is that you needn't give them a return link - it's one way linking!

| Have you Been Struggling with Your Site Traffic? |
If you've been struggling with your website traffic, maybe it's time to start paying for traffic. Pay-per-click Search Engines provide a very effective means of obtaining highly targeted-traffic to your website at a reasonable price.
The nice thing is that you only pay when someone actually comes to your site. And if you choose your keywords well, chances are this someone will be a very good prospect.
Another great benefit of PPC search engines is that you don't have to wait weeks or months to appear in them. As soon as your site information is approved, you are in the engine...well, your site is in the engine. If you have never used a PPC search engine for your online promotion, we recommend that you give them a try. Below are some popular Pay-per-Click search engines:
Overture
Findwhat
Kanoodle
