YouTube Will Lead to the Internet’s Downfall 2007-11-28 01:34:00 A study conducted by the Nemertes Research Group points to the conclusion that the constantly increasing use of video services such as YouTube
could see the Internet
reach breaking point in just three years’ time.According to the PC Advisor’s Grant Gross, "the research firm says the flood of new video content could overwhelm the web by 2010 unless backbone providers invest up to $137bn in new capacity, more than double what service providers plan to invest, according to the study. In North America alone, backbone investments of $42bn to $55bn will be needed in the next three to five years to keep up with demand."Why the gloomy perspective? I’m not sure how much you know about exafloods and I’m not sure that the word can actually have a plural form because it’s something like Noah’s flood: one and definitive one, no chance for a second. The exaflood is caused by the explosion of video content available on the Internet and the amount of data created by the users: 161 exabytes Read more:Downfall

Knowing how and when those competitors are buying and placing their ads will impact your placement and response rates.Jeanniey Mullen suggests to start with this rule in mind: to maximize response, you need to compare the potential response rates for newsletters that best match your target audience with newsletters that may not be a perfect match but have less competitive congestion. You final response rate could be up to three times higher. Source : Dealing with the Competition in Enewsletter Ads : B2B Marketing
Secret Formula - Online video Marketing and Promotion 2007-11-19 04:38:00 Videos that have relevant and rich tags and descriptions will be found and will be forwarded. But there is nothing wrong with supercharging this process, and this is where promotion comes into play.This is especially important as many video
sites employ a "bubble up" methodology that promotes videos and content creators that receive the most views, subscribers, comments, ratings and forwards. Thus, then "bubble up" to the top of video sites and become even more popular. So in the video world, popularity begets more popularity.Building a community is the single best method for promoting a video.This isn't an overnight process, but can be done by using the infrastructure of the various video-sharing and social networking sites. This means subscribing to people's videos and leaving creative comments so that people click on your profile. Also, it's important (and fun) to befriend people and invite them to subscribe to your video channels. You can also join and be a meaningful contributo Read more:Formula

E-Commerce Cross-Selling and Up-Selling 2008-01-04 03:44:00 How do the top online retail stores get conversion rates of 5%, 10%, even 15%?

-SellingCross-selling is offering a similar product to what a shopper is looking at -- either an alternative model or accessories that go with the product (add-ons).
