When buying a digital camera

June 4, 2009 – 2:11 pm | by admin

When buying a digital camera, many consumers are set mainly in megapixels. It is not the most important benefit of the camera or the pictures which ensures better quality, but a fact that draws much attention and is easily understood, unlike other features that sound like Korean.
After all, a 5 MP picture with resolution (a capability that has long since surpassed digital cameras, and even reaching as many phones) evidently satisfies the quality required by the average user who rarely print their pictures and might make a large photo subiéndola to complete your Facebook profile …
In addition, photographs are a large number of negative side effects, including stress before memory cards, occupy more space on the hard drives of computers, or do not faithfully reproduce the original colors.
The competition among manufacturers of digital cameras to offer maximum capacity of megapixels has been slowly rising up to 12 bar the MP recently, which offer different models of Samsung, Canon and Pentax
At this point, it appears that some are starting to ignore this competition. This is true of the Japanese manufacturer Olympus, one of the most important market. Akira Watanabe, one of its directors, ZDNet declared that “12 MP are enough to cover most needs of most users.”
For this reason, withdraws from Olympus this struggle, resignation and try to sell more cameras offering more MP. In its place, the company will focus on other improvements to the cameras, as the dynamic range (the spectrum of colors that the sensor is capable of playing) or improving the quality of images taken in low light.
Other trends indicate that beyond the War of the MP are to improve the quality of the zoom lens built with greater sensitivity and ability to record and play high-definition video.
It is ultimately to give a more complete experience and not focus only on the size of the photos the same way that a car is not sold only by reaching the top speed, but for all its benefits.

In Internet Businesses

In Internet Businesses | No Fear For The Crisis
Andalusia blog and the regulars will have found that I like to tell stories of success, even though not directly related to the marketing affiliates. And on another occasion he spoke of musician Lionel Neykov.
The story today is not so similar to a fairy tale: it is much more to any of us. Now the crisis began to be felt for months in the publishing industry, and my friend Olga was an early casualty. The magazine he worked for closed and she was on the dole, with nearly forty years and two dependent children. His first impulse was to seek a job similar to what had so unexpectedly lost. There was no way. The other magazines were also difficult to stay afloat and could not afford to expand its workforce.
Olga occasionally called his former colleagues and shared a beer with them. Those meetings made it more harm than good, they spread despair and pessimism. There came a time that Olga could not bear more inactivity. For a little cheer and keep busy, he dared to create a blog about cooking. Gradually he discovered, with surprise, which had more people interested in your recipes.
Business on the increase in Internet
Her husband complained that he wasted the day at the computer, but Olga already beginning to sense that he was not wasting time. Joined Google Adsense and that, besides having fun, I could make money with your blog. The amount was modest, but it was rewarding.
It would be great to tell Olga is about to publish her first cookbook, or who will give a cooking program on television, but that was not what happened. However, he has nothing wrong. You were other ways to promote your blog: posting videos on Youtube recipes with step by step, join social networks like Facebook and post there … By the way tickets back in touch via the Internet with people they had not seen since years. At a dinner for alumni sat next to an old college buddy who, coincidentally, needed someone with experience on the Internet to coordinate a network of blogs. Olga has now started working from home, spend more time with their children and face 2009 with optimism and employment.
The great success of Olga was not write prescriptions or try affiliate marketing. What really helped her get ahead was to change the chip. She stopped looking for a job that was identical to and opened his mind to new possibilities. Stopped wasting their energy doing what all your competitors and dared to explore new avenues. Learned to recognize their strengths and exploit them.
It is true that we can not control the circumstances. Experts agree that the crisis will not improve overnight. But we can cope with imagination and courage to seek new paths. Affiliate marketing can be one of them.

Fraud in the PPC

June 4, 2009 – 2:03 pm | by admin

Misleading the advertiser: fraud in the PPC
Sure all participants passed us at one time or another this idea in the mind: if I pay for every click on a link, why not ensure higher revenues artificially forcing the number of clicks?
The most innocent simply click their own banners and links to advertisers who are members. Others ask their friends and acquaintances to do so. The most astute use boots: software that automatically links within 24 hours a day, even if the PC owner is absent.
This illegal practice, increasingly, is the top concern of advertisers and agencies for direct marketing interactive. The Click Fraud Network, an association of independent agencies and professionals, estimates that in 2007 28% of that received clicks and Google AdSense Yahoo Publisher Network, the two giants of online advertising tailored content, were fraudulent. Ie, clicks generated by members who wanted to earn more money.
Map of fraud in the PPC
As you can see from this map, developed by Click Fraud Network, Spain is one of the places in the world where fraud is more widespread. In Latin America there are also several hot spots, especially in Mexico, Dominican Republic and Brazil.
But fraud in PPC is not a recommended practice anything. Not only for ethical reasons (the advertiser has the right to honest results, as the visits to your site are people genuinely interested in their products) but also for practical reasons. Fraud contributes to the whole system of affiliate marketing will falter and ultimately, as members, that hurts us more than it benefits us. In the next article I will explain why.

5 reasons not to commit fraud

June 4, 2009 – 2:01 pm | by admin

5 reasons not to commit fraud
In the previous article entitled “fool the Advertiser: fraud in the PPC” I explained what the fraud in pay per click, and who practice it. My purpose is not to recommend that engañéis advertisers, quite the contrary. In the long run, ethical practice in Affiliate marketing generates more profit. Here are 5 good reasons to avoid fraud.
1. Can be detected Increasingly, agencies using tools to detect offenders affiliates. Receive many clicks from one IP is a warning sign. The boots are more difficult to unmask, but often end up revealing, when a page generates a suspiciously high volume of clicks on your actual traffic.
2. Creates mistrust: Before the advent of the Internet was difficult for people on foot only benefits we get for recommending products. Affiliate marketing multiplies our opportunities, but with one condition: that works. If we worked to sabotage the system, advertisers will lose faith in it and decant again by traditional advertising. Bread today, hunger tomorrow.
3. Lowers prices: To calculate your rates, advertisers calculate the percentage of clicks that turn into purchases. If there are many false clicks, advertisers feel they need more clicks to get the same result and click price collapses. The more reliable of the market participants, the more money you are willing to pay.
4. Prevents us from growing our business: This is especially true in the case of fraud manual. Time spent clicking links that do not interest us could work to create more websites with actual readers, we would include more advertisers. What is more interesting to work all day in one store or five stores that have their own work and generate income on their own? Eventually, devoting our time, effort and intelligence to create new business is more profitable to spend 10 hours a day clicking.
5. Do not generate added value: The amount of time dedicated to creating quality content on our website to get more views or promote products that we sponsor gives us knowledge and experience we can take in the future, both to improve our business to explore new career paths. We saw in previous posts that companies are increasingly interested in hiring people with experience in interactive marketing. The time devoted to click on a link is totally unproductive. Do not learn anything, do not invest in our future.
In summary, by tempting it may seem, the fraud is not going to help us make money online. It’s much smarter to learn the keys to affiliate marketing. There is no other way to ensure success without killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.
