Is Google in Trouble & Facing Bankruptcy?

[NEW YORK - Wednesday] - by Devon Melk. Rumors are now running amok
that the 2nd most powerful website on the entire Worldwide-Web may
file BANKRUPTCY, with the deadline set for this December; being the
date of both discharge and dissolution in a Federal Court of Law.

This would come as a SHOCK to investors and "Googlers" alike who
both profit and benefit from the use of the World's largest and
most powerful search engine which receives far in excess of
100 MILLION unique daily visitors and well over 300 million
individual searches daily - making it perhaps the single most
valuable public data resource as an "information bank" online the
world over.

But is the rumor true or false?

The origin of the rumor occurred when some savvy Internet marketers
began making statements that they had heard "insiders' talk" that
the company (now publicly traded since April 30, 2004, just over 3
years ago) may face financial disaster with the release of a "new
system" that would allow advertisers to get their otherwise
pay-per-click (PPC) advertising completely free.

This, of course, would naturally lead directly (like a domino-
effect) to the collapse of Google's sibling program AdSense; as its
only revenue comes from the direct sales of AdWords "clicks."

The "new system" in question and responsible for the controversy
over getting AdWords pay-per-clicks free is that developed by
Dr Jon Cohen of New York City, New York (now retired) who discovered
a simple, yet effective means, for getting Google PPC ads without
having to suffer the costs involved.

The retired New York doctor and native has a publicly disclosed net
worth now in excess of $7O million [US], having generated well over
$377 million in product sales from sixteen (16) separate online
businesses within just nine (9) years since first venturing online
in 1998 (about the same time as Google was founded).

It is estimated by company insiders and leading financial analysts
that the "good doctor" (as he's called by "all who know him") has
purportedly saved well over $93 million (some estimates suggest
closer to $136 million) in otherwise paid advertising at Google and
the other major players in the PPC targeted-search arena online -
including Yahoo, MSN, AskJeeves, AllTheWeb.com, HotBot, AltaVista,
Lycos and Netscape, just to name a few.

The "secret" became available to the general masses last April, and
its very release caused such a major sweeping stir among the
community of Internet-marketers, affiliate-marketers, webmasters,
ecommerce company owners and surfers alike that the site quickly
rose to break the top most visited 1,000 websites on the entire
planet briefly; and as can be seen here:

http://tinyurl.com/39lnjn (Alexa data on this!)

When asked if the "secret" would somehow ruin Google, Dr Cohen
revealed almost cryptically that it actually would bring about just
the opposite effect, and "stimulate" even more business volume for
the virtual giant.

Many people were dismayed to find that Google itself is deliberately
allowing the purchase of 100,000's of PPC ads offering the secret
system to the general public -- which indicates to most observers
that either they [Google] haven't caught it, or they simply feel
that it somehow is not a threat to their continued operation.

For anyone's inspection factual and hard evidence supporting this
can be seen by simply looking to the right-hand column when doing a
search for "get google ads free" (specifically in quotation marks)
at Google.com under the "Sponsored Links" section.

Or take this direct and instant SHORTCUT:

http://tinyurl.com/2ctu6j

You can also see nearly 100,000 specific results in the "organic"
fields index located in the center and which occupies the bulk of
the results pages.

One would think that if Google felt threatened by such a release as
this earth-shaking "secret" is, they would hardly allow for either
paid-ads or organic content to make the top searches regarding it.

However, evidence supports to the contrary - and this being the
case now for a full six (6) months.

Mysteriously, within just two (2) hours of its initial release last
April, Google itself actually did in fact 'pause' the parent firm's
attempts at advertising the new system using PPCs on their search
engine - only, however, to release the hold after a Review Team
consisting of some of Google's top executives completed performing
an in-depth investigation and made the determination to ALLOW the
ads to run.

The secret system was recently revised however to include "major
new content" and "more exhaustive instructions," and is now
available at its Home Site:

http://laura95.freegoogle.hop.clickbank.net

The most important addition is that of a so-called "string of code"
(tech-talk for some HTML) that can be added to any webpage(s) that
instantly causes the elimination of the page owner's AdWords costs
right away.

Even a "live" woman spokes-representative ("Rachel") has been added
to the site, and who appears to literally walk out onto the webpage
and talk to visitors and explain a bit more how the mysterious new
breakthrough system works.

Since the addition of this new "live" spokes-woman has now appeared
at the site, company Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Mr Todd
Coutrin states that "sales for the system have skyrocketed above
2,430% suddenly and with no limit in sight."

Coutrin continues: "With the newest revision now in place, plus all
the additions added, affiliates for the new system can expect to
earn even more than ever before!" (Note: Affiliates make up the
bulk of the firm's sales generation.)

The refund rate for the new revised version of the secret (named
V5.1) has dropped to less than half of what it was before the newer
version's release; meaning it's now even more readily-received and
put to use than ever before (perhaps in large part to the newer
simplicity of application) - now making it the safest and one of
the best resellers for the networks of affiliate marketers who earn
their revenues from the reselling of other electronic publishers'
stock and digital product lines.

When asked, Google company representatives stated matter-of-factly
that the rumors of bankruptcy for the ecommerce giant are simply
not true, and that the rumor millings are in fact simply the result
of "panics" brought on by the usual hysteria associated with
anything large, new or revolutionary - or in this case, all three.

Attempts to contact both Sergey Brin and Larry Page, the former
Stanford University students who founded Google in 1998, to request
comment were unsuccessful.

Again, Google itself seems to be the biggest supporter of the "new
system" as it's allowing more and more advertisers to promote the
new system on its search engine before over 100 million daily
searches and surfers.

Have You Found Your Niche?

Finding your niche is not as hard as you might think. I am sure you have already been told that to have a successful business on the Internet, you must have a niche. Everything you read on niches just make them sound more confusing and more difficult than they actually are.

I would recommend looking at your hobbies. If you are into stamp collecting, hunting, fishing, taking picture with your camera, working with wood. etc., any one of those could be your niche. Your niche could also be something as simple as selling retail products on the Internet.

Selling retail products on the Internet is not as hard as you might think. There is always ebay. If you have a wholesale supplier that will drop ship your orders straight to your customer in your business name, then you have a niche. There are several wholesalers on the Internet that will drop ship single items directly to your customer and use your business name. This means you don't have to have inventory and you are not required to buy in large quantities because there is no minimum amount you have to purchase to do business with them.

Taking picture can be very lucrative on the Internet because there are pictures all over the Internet. Think about it someone had to take those pictures. On the Internet you will be able to find people who are willing to pay good money for your artwork.

As for stamp collecting, I am sure you could set up a website just for stamp collectors where you and other stamp collectors could buy, sell, or trade stamps. Write articles about your stamp collecting experiences and post them on your website as well as in article directories. You will become known as an expert in stamp collecting.

The same pretty much goes for hunters and fishermen. You could inform other hunters and fishermen about great fishing location or deer leases that are available. Write articles about your fishing or hunting trips and encourage some of your members and visitors to write and submit stories of their own.

So all you have is think about what you know and what you like to do in your spare time to come up with a niche. The next step will be learning some marketing strategies.

Finding the Right Niche for Your Home-Based Business

Deciding on a niche for your business can be tough, but it doesn’t have to be. Finding your niche is one of the first things a successful business expert will ask you. What do you want to specialize in? What is your niche? Basically they want to know if there is a subject you excel at. Something you are knowledgeable on.

Take for instance, if you are an avid hunter, you know what hunter’s need, what hunter’s like and the ends and outs of how to hunt. This might just be a good niche for you. You may not be a writer, but you could collaborate with someone to write an ebook, or you could consider hiring a ghostwriter. Then you will have that ebook to market.

If you don’t seem to have a special interest that you can write about, you don’t have to be discouraged. There are plenty of products out there that as long as you believe in them, you can use as your niche. What ever product you find, make sure you believe in the product. The hardest thing to do on this earth is to sell a product you don’t like or don’t believe in.

The products can be tangible products your customers can touch and use everyday, or they can be information product like the avid hunter’s ebook. You can work as an affiliate to sell these products or you can find products that have resale rights you can acquire in order for you to make money.

I have looked into many different ways to make money online, and there is one thing they all have in common – marketing. You must market your product. There is more to marketing your product than paying for pay per click ads or buying banner ads. We will save marketing for another article. For now you have to decide on a niche. So, go get ‘um tiger!

Marketing - What Do You Need to Know?

How much do you know about marketing? I think it is a mystery to most people. However if you are trying to start your own home-based business, you will need to know more about marketing.

Marketing is the life blood of all businesses. Without marketing a business has no hope of surviving. The Internet is vast, so it is unlikely that someone web surfing will just happen upon your website. People come to your website because they know you are there and there is a possiblity you will have exactly what they are looking for.

These people don't just don't happen, you have to inform them. You have to educated them. They need to know they want your product or service. They may not have felt the need before, so you have to show them the need is there. You do this through marketing.

Marketing is more than just placing an ad on one of the many locations there are on the Internet. There is more to marketing than that. If you want to see some of the aspects of marketing, read my article on ezine articles or articles base or squidoo.

Until then Good Luck!

Starting Your Own Home-Based Business

Starting your own business can be frustrating, even if you have coaches and guides to help you along the way. It can be frustrating waiting on all the steps you have taken to finally generate that first payment, but if you just hang in there it will come. These things take time.

Probably the most frustrating part of all is trying to add your own personality, creative thoughts and ideas into the formula. No matter what business venture you choose to use to start your own home-based Internet business, you want to add a unique angle to it. This will keeps it from being just like everybody else. By adding your own spin on the business you create will make it more your creation and less a copy of what everyone else is doing.

Variety is important. Without a variety of websites on the Internet, the Internet would become useless. If all the websites look exactly alike, the Internet would become monotonous and boring. You would only be able to find one piece of information. That is not the Internet you want. You want the Internet to stay the as it is - a vast wealth of information.


Thank you for reading.

It is possible for a person to earn a good living online if they are willing to work at it and invest some money in their future.

When looking online you will be able to find several business opportunities. One of them is bound to be of interest to you. When you find the business venture, which interests you the most, do your homework. You will want to make sure you are not getting yourself into a business scam.

You may need to pay for a website, advertising in order to direct traffic to your website, maybe you will need to invest in the product, or if you are making your product, you will need the supplies. The great thing about starting a business on the Internet is the monetary investment is not as large as it would be with a physical location. You won't have to worry about the cost of overhead or the right location for your business. Many of the business ventures you can get into will give you a website.

Ebay will charge you a small fee for listing and selling your product on their auction site.

If you are not interested in starting a business so to speak, you can work as contract labor for companies who will hire you to several types of jobs on your home computer. For this you will want to check out the numerous job listing websites on the Internet. You will pay a fee in one form or another to have access to the job they have listed. When you find a position you qualify for, you will apply for that position. If you don't get that position, they are others you can apply for. It is best to apply for several positions. You will find it difficult to find a position if you only apply for one at a time. Some of the positions are permanent positions and some of them will be temporary positions. You can decide the type of position, which is right for you. Eventually you will be able to build up a reputation and a client base following where the jobs will come to you. Don't expect this to happen overnight, you will need to have a lot of satisfied customers who want to use you for their upcoming projects.
