Written by prash on August 6th, 2010
Bodybuilding supplementation is extremely vital to the natural bodybuilder. The science and technology of nutritional supplements have improved dramatically since early 1990. Steroid free bodybuilders can now make much better gains than they could with food and training alone. Not taking advantage of advanced supplementation puts at a distinct disadvantage.
Protein supplements are most often used by bodybuilders. Protein supplements help bodybuilders get enough grams of protein per day by adding protein drinks between regular food meals. There are many forms of protein powder available and the most popular body building supplement is whey protein.
Whey protein isolate is the purest form and contains 90 to 95 percent protein. It contains very little fat or lactose. Whey protein shakes are great to use after work outs since they are faster acting and supply important amino acids into muscle cells immediately after training.
Creatine supplement is one of the most effective supplements introduced to the bodybuilding world in decades. Creatine is a natural substance stored in muscle cells and is a part of the anaerobic energy system. By supplementing with creatine you can provide muscle cells the means to produce more energy during exercise.

Do Marketers Prefer Social Media or Email Marketing?
Written by Benjamin R on November 8th, 2009
Research and surveys are continuing to show the growing importance of Social Media for marketers in 2010, with nearly six in 10 planning to include social-media spending in their next-year’s marketing budget, according to the “2010 Media Planning Intelligence Study” from the Center for Media Research.
The Top 3 were
- Email 57%
- Social Media 56%
- SEO (or Keyword search) 50%
The Last 2 (interestingly) were Traditional National Mass Media
- National TV 18%
- National Newspapers 15%
Note: The study was conducted conducted between July 17 and Aug. 10, 2009 and is based on a survey of 1,972 MediaPost subscribers, including 1,164 who report that they have planning, buying, approving responsibility for 2010
Another recent study by Alterian found a similar phenomenon in terms of the importance being placed on social media, with similiar results to the “2010 Media Planning Intelligence Study”. Despite the acknowledgement by marketers that email provides the most measurable ROI, social media continues to receive a large portion of marketers’ attention because of its potential influence on consumers.
In another study that examined the complex relationship between email and social networks, The Nielsen Company found that the high Social Media consumers had high levels of email usage, likely because of the multitude of “status update” messages that flood social networkers’ inboxes.
Another study reveals that Social Email Campaigns are increasing in this current year(2009) by nearly 400% (A record number of email marketers are planning to bridge the gap between online social networks and their email marketing campaigns, and the number of social email initiatives is expected to grow 367% this year, according to new research from Ball State University, the Email Marketer’s Club and ExactTarget.(for further reading on this have a read of a white paper at Exact Target “Expanding the Reach of Email Through Social Networks Whitepaper“)
Note: The complex relationship between email and Social Media is being further investigated by The Nielsen Company and could prove to be interesting when its results are revealed.
So with the opportunities for marketers with the new medium of Social Media, there are still obstacles with the survey from Alterian revealing ”4 Challenges” in implementing Social media Marketing.
So what are the major takeaways from these studies
1. Social Media Marketing is to be ignored at your companies marketing peril
2. Traditional “Email” is still one of the most important marketing distribution channels
3. SEO is vital in being found online and is still a core marketing strategy
4. Investigating and capitalising on the surprising but interesting relationship between Social Media and Email
So are the first three the major part of your marketing strategy?

Submitting your website to search engines
Written by Diggy on July 17th, 2009
There are a lot of internet marketing company’s that offer search engine submission to 5,000 search engines or directories but be aware because there isn’t even close to that many in existence. Also watch out for internet marketing company’s talking about link malls, this kind of internet marketing can get you black listed with Google and some other major search engines. We submit all our sites manually and that is because we have to there is about 10 out of 300 search directories that will allow you to submit your site using any kind of tool or program so also be very careful if some internet marketing company tells you they have some super high tech internet marketing robot that submits your site to search directories. There are three types of internet marketing paid, free, and both. If you want results and you want them fast then Google pay per clicks is the way to go. If you want free traffic it takes a little bit of time and effort before you get results but it’s well worth it.
There are only 3 major search engines, Google, Yahoo and MSN, as long as your website appear in these search engines that is fine. Any additional search engines you need to look at as just a bonus, as these will not bring signifcant traffic to your website.

Written by jeff on July 14th, 2009
When a visitor lands on one of your landing pages after performing a search from a search engine, the expectations of the visitor are that they do not want to be bombarded with information about non related items or have too many options.
You will increase the likelihood that someone will purchase or enquire about your product if the users expectation match what they have search for in the first place. That is why it is important to think about your Landing Pages for each product or service.
It’s essential to provide the visitor with enough information to make an informed decision to continue. Then it is important that the design of the page is in such a way to easily take the user to the next step being a call to action, either by purchasing, an enquiry form or contact details.
