Free Lifetime Advertisement via Internet

I'm not talking about Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Even though I can provide you with that service. After all, its a service. So, its not entirely a free lifetime advertising option for you.

So, what am I stating here? Its your website.

Do you have a website? What is a website?
[A website (or web site) is a collection of related web pages, images, videos or other digital assets that are addressed with a common domain name or IP address in an Internet Protocol-based network. A web site is hosted on at least one web server, accessible via the Internet or a private local area network.

A web page is a document, typically written in plain text interspersed with formatting instructions of Hypertext Markup Language (HTML, XHTML). A web page may incorporate elements from other web sites with suitable markup anchors.

Web pages are accessed and transported with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which may optionally employ encryption (HTTP Secure, HTTPS) to provide security and privacy for the user of the web page content. The user's application, often a web browser, renders the page content according to its HTML markup instructions onto a display terminal.

All publicly accessible web sites collectively constitute the World Wide Web.
The pages of a web site can usually be accessed from a simple Uniform Resource Locator (URL) called the homepage. The URLs of the pages organize them into a hierarchy, although hyperlinking between them conveys the reader's perceived site structure and guides the reader's navigation of the site.] (source: Wikipedia)

With all that jargon explanation of what a website is, in simple its actually an advertising tool on the internet.

The internet has grown a lot these few years and its one of the most powerful information tool in the world. Now, hosting your website is just a per-year renewal basis. Domains included. So long as you pay your hosting and domain yearly, the website is yours.

So, what am I saying here? Your website is actually the best way to sell your products, services, company to anyone and everyone. Its the cheapest advertising tool compared to TV, Radio, leaflets, banner, exhibiting booth/events, posters, etc.

So, if I have a website. So one would eventually find my website and know my company and know what my company does and sells.

Now with popular and dominating search engines like Yahoo, Google, MSN to name a few over more than thousands of search engines. It helps us in our daily lives to search for information, information and more information. So, we know from the Wikipedia definition of website; the collective constitutes the World Wide Web.

We just need to "park" our websites in these popular search engines so that people can search for our website. So, that's where Google Adwords, SEO, Yahoo Search Engine, Search Listings..etc comes in. But we still need to pay for something to have our websites advertise in the search engine.

But we shouldn't think that; that's the only way for our website to be advertised. One of the most effective and gets people to remember your website is actually human touch.

How? Word-of-mouth is the most ancient methods used to advertise your products, services, company. Not only website plays an important role here. Email is very important. It actually advertise your website. How so? If I just pass on my email as justin@ctsolution.com.my. You can actually surf to my website using the email address as ctsolution.com.my.

So, if you don't have a website now.. its a good time to get started out.

Google Adwords Workshop

Just had a very interesting workshop by Mr. Hanson Toh. He is the Country Manager for Singapore/Malaysia. Introducing Google Apps. Introducing Google Applications like Documents, Gmail, Sites, Calendar..etc. This is very helpful for those people that want to start their own business / entrepreneurs. I truly support Google's work to make the internet a better working environment especially for those who isn't really with computer knowledge.

Apart from Google Apps, I got extra new lessons on Google Adwords. This really helps me to save money on sponsoring links and maximize the campaign advertisements.

Above it all, at the end of the workshop... Google gave us a FREE RM100.00 cash voucher. So that you can start up your advertisement campaign. Great workshop organized by MIRC.

Yahoo! Search Engine Marketing

I'm sure I'm kinda outdated by now with the news of yahoo!'s new and latest panama engine for search engine marketing. But then, if you realise it. There is a need to just boost it again after the hoo-haa of what we have been waiting for; for the new engine now that its here.

When it started to launch, I was as curious as a bee on what kind of magic it can perform, what surprises it can explode our minds compared to the ever popular and its hit rival Google Adwords.

Not very friendly at first. Very sorry to say this. Maybe the fact that its not filled with the data that some countries needed for estimation and statistics. I was not particular happy in the 1st few months since I can't get estimation on how much the keywords cost and how much I should actually budget for my daily and monthly expenses.

But what impresses me most is that Yahoo! helps me thru these tough times and I really would like to say 'Thank you!'. After just a few weeks after my set back on getting estimations and cost per click; In a very short period, I am able to get the estimations I need and I can say that its just as competitive with Google Adwords, if not better!

Not forgetting, Yahoo! Webinar have been really helpful to gray out those small details for every semarketers everywhere. Hope to see more from Yahoo!
