The Power of Blogging By Jeremy Long Chia Teik      Blogging is an activity that has changed our landscape on the internet so dramatically that millions of blogs are floating in the blogosphere right now. How do we view blogging and the outcomes of indulging in it like a drug addict is to drug? How much do we know about and to what extent the power of blogging can impact upon our online business? Even in the mortar-and-brick business, we need to look at certain factors to put our business into trim and fit shape. We often look at good ideas for our product or service, the greatness of the product or service itself, how visible is our product or service, and what comprises support to achieve our goals. Let's look at each factor individually:- * Good Ideas It is beneficial to our online business if we often have good ideas to further improve it. We have to give our ideas the space to grow, besides nurturing them and bring them to fruition through their implementation. We will see the power of blogging in action if we allow our blogs to be truly transparent and peer reviews to be permitted. For the sake of internal blogs, such strategies will remove the obstacles in idea generation and vetting. There will also be interaction from your customers if you provide the necessary space for them on your blog. * Greatness of product or service We have good ideas to be turned into product or service for our online business. We can churn out them out according to our plans. One thing is crucial. The product or service may be great but may under-perform when facing stiff competition. We need to talk and find out from our customers to get feedback, primarily to study the buying patterns of our customers. Blogging helps us unselfishly in this problem area. Through your blog, you are able to obtain answers from your readers at least. Not only locally, but globally, as your blog transcends boundaries on the web. We will definitely know the truth.     Adland Digest Sponsor Message Lower Your Gas and Electric Bills Families across our area can save hundreds, even thousands of dollars if they would only switch to an energy provider that charges less.

(Spot II)   * Visibility of our product or service It is obvious that to market our product or service, it needs to be visible to the world. The right customer will come along at the right time to buy the right product or service. We are in reality talking about the global reach, when your blog has the capacity to touch readers effectively through various programs such as contests and press releases. Interaction with the readers is important. Mindshare, which reveals how many people are really aware of your product or service, is even more significant. The power of blogging brings your online business to a global audience, who must be given an appreciable amount of mind space. They will of course decide how and when to engage and build a relationship with you. Here, we can actually notice viral marketing in action too. Blogging, with its intrinsic characteristics, will surely bring about the formation of a community of reading participants, large enough to positively affect your online business. * Support Through your blog, internal communication is greatly enhanced. Information can be viewed through the blog, similarly minded people can share exchange of views and interests through the blog. The power of blogging brings out the beauty of the blog - it keeps your team informed and motivated at all times. Great ideas can be easily archived and viewed any time. There is common ground to work with passion. The blog does it all in rendering support for better internal communication. Blogging requires a voice from you. It is the new platform from which you will provide information to meet the needs of your customers and to build relationships with them. Along the way, you will immerse yourself in the culture of blogging. Well, that's indeed the power of blogging!   About the Author: Jeremy Long Chia Teik is from Singapore, an internet marketer, with a flair for writing, loves the marketing profession, have banking experience, loves improving IT know-how, likes to know more people.

(Spot III)   How to Choose Your Next Antivirus Software   By Mandy Buchanan   Antivirus software is an important tool for any computer today what with the number of attempts to attack computers today. The antivirus software you choose is therefore important and below we have mentioned a few criteria that you should consider when choosing your next antivirus software. Your Antivirus Software Should Have a Good Reputation One of the things you need to consider is the reputation of the piece of software you are buying. When it comes to protecting your computer this is especially important and so find out what the best programs are and then make your decision from there. What Features Does It Have? Anti-virus software should also preferably come with a number of other features such as anti-spyware, anti-adware and firewall software. The more features it has to help protect your computer the better. Your Personal Requirements What you choose will also depend on your personal preferences and requirements, for example, people who only go online to check their email occasionally will need a lot less protection than those who are online all day and run their business online. Consider your requirements before choosing your antivirus software. Shop Around Take time to choose what internet security software you are going to use for your computer. Look at what's available, find out what people think of the software and its advantages and disadvantages before making your decision. Choosing your antivirus software is an important part of protecting your computer and should therefore be done with care taking into account your personal requirements as well as the features of the program. You should also choose an internet security suite that has a good reputation and one you know you can trust.   About the Author: Mandy Buchanan is a professional freelance writer working primarily through Elance, as well as running her own websites for Moms Working at Home, Crafty Content and Living Naturally.
