Brevity in Online Forum or Blog Posting a Relevant Tactic
Often we see folks posting in online forums or on Blogs and sometimes it goes on for some 1,000 words, now in most cases this is over-stepping the bounds of online forum etiquette because people do not wish to read that much. Unless of course the comments are very viable and worthy and on topic and those in the online forum are dedicated to the dialogue, then it makes a lot of sense.Moderators must watch when folks start writing too much and get too far off topic because it can be disruptive and the more that is written the more chances of hurt feelings, psychological attacks and the disrespected will seek revenge in reciprocal responses and then well all communication can break down. Indeed the debate against brevity is that the dialogues become superficial in nature and that is the opposite side of the spectrum. One online forum participant states:Brief to me means superficial. I dance the tango! Not the fox trot!Internet has come of Age. Today people vie for online content and have started using the Internet for anything and everything. Right from blogging to the oldest application, email, the WEB as its best known is becoming part and parcel of our life like our televisions, electricity etc.

Web Hosting companies play a very important role in this spread and make this wide usage possible. Through competitive pricing , excellent customer support via tickets and chat, the business has grown big and lot of web hosting companies have come of age, reducing prices and encouraging outsourcing. Today we have reached a stage where cheap and sturdy servers, coupled with feature rich control panels and helpdesk systems to handle customer issues have all but systemized and made web hosting effective enough for any layman to host his site.

But from here to where is the next question? All webhosts provide cheap support, customer loyalty is only relevant to the point where the next cheapest but reliable hosting company brings out a plan!

Everyday resellers and new web hosts sprout, with just the idea to make it a viable enough business so that they can sell it to some bigger hosting company at profitable margins. No one thinks long term and those who do have to struggle with lower prices to compete with the short term traders whose only idea is to increase customer base to make it viable for a sale whatever be the cost. Discount offers, special offers whatever else to incite a customer to jump from his existing webhost is the way of life. Some lose the gamble and its becoming like a stock exchange with traders running aghast or happy at the way the nasdaq points move down or up.

1. Customers trade their loyalty to :

   Cheaper prices - No differences between hosts. All provide cheap plans, good support and reliable servers mostly. But they all either sell off

      Are Your Marketing Pieces Up to Date?
      The other day someone asked me for one of my informational brochures. As I was giving her the piece I stated that if I were printing these today it would be a little different. The piece was only about two months old and already the way I wanted to communicate things had changed slightly. Then I got to thinking. If I were to print informational brochures six months from now, they would probably be a little different too. Don't get me wrong. I am a big believer in consistency of marketing. However, in today's business environment especially as fast a pace as our business develops, things change...sometimes minutely and sometimes in a big way. What do you do?What I do is to keep my printed materials updated with my current thinking on my computer. That means if I have a new idea or thought or way of saying something to my prospects I put it right in my pieces even though I may not print off more for a month or longer. Developed a new product? Put it right in your flyer now

         Beta Means Never Having to Say You're Sorry
         I recently heard a technology presentation from a young but experienced CEO of a big ‘clicks and mortar’ organization. He told the large audience confidently, ‘Beta means never having to say you’re sorry.’‘That’s right,’ I thought to myself. ‘When launching the beta test of a new web-enabled process, customers must understand it’s only a pilot run and should be forgiving if things mess up or don’t work out as planned.’I was totally wrong about his point of view.In direct contrast to my thinking, this e-commerce veteran explained that new web-based interactions often do not work properly during a beta test.However, from the customer’s point of view, he insisted, your pilot run must be successful enough to avoid creating negative customer perceptions or the need to apologize after the fact.The cost and consequences of doing it badly are customer skepticism, hesitation and negative word-of-mouth. That’s a cost too high to pay in today’s fast-moving world of

            From Playing Card to Business Card
            Without the development of the printing press in 1445 the Renaissance may never have happened, and Johann Gutenberg the inventor certainly did not know he was sowing the seeds of the business card entrepreneur’s bonanza we have today. What civilisation gained from Gutenberg’s invention is incalculable.Visting CardsVisiting cards (also known as calling cards) first appeared in China in the 15th century, and the earliest European form of visiting cards appeared in France in the 17th century during the reign of Louis XIV – “Le Roi Soleil”. They were normal playing cards on which visitors wrote their signatures, promissory notes and other messages. The cards were just a little smaller than the size of a man’s hand. As time went by, these visiting cards further developed into greeting and other cards.The business card evolved from the Visiting card over time, but through it’s evolution it’s purpose remains the same.Trade CardsTrade cards, another early fo

            1. Customers trade their loyalty to :

               Cheaper prices - No differences between hosts. All provide cheap plans, good support and reliable servers mostly. But they all either sell off or in the rush to compete for increased customer base, compromise on quality of servers.

            2. Offices are non existent. Servers are co-located or got from NOC and they have no one to respond to them or handle them. All they know is all if not most support is outsourced to some other country specially India. So patriotism is out of the window.
            3. If they try to chat or call , they realise that they would get as response, a accented english with no idea of the cultural differences or understanding of the US culture fully and hence get frustrated trying to explain beyond technical aspects. Though its improving, tech support is one area that has yet to reach the standards.
            4. Even if you bring in other nationalities to handle phone support, their english will never be similar to the US English Customers may never touch base with the company that does this.

            How do we workaround this? American Phone Support!

            As everyone has witnessed within their own lives, economies, of individuals or nations globally go through cycles of up and down. If today its cheaper to outsource to India, the rate of development and the cost of living rises over there too and it will reach a stage where the trend gets reversed. More and more countries would prefer to come back to US and utilise the American skills. American Unversities are one of the most advanced universities in the world in terms of academics and infrastructure.

            Thats why it makes sense to go for a Phone service staffed by
