While some marketers struggle for years to earn enough money to pay the bills,
others zoom to the top, their sites exploding with traffic and their in-boxes
flooded with order and payment statements. Why? How do these marketers differ
from the rest? Are they smarter? Braver? Do they invest more wisely or have more
money to invest? Do they know the right people?
No. In fact, there's only one real differencde between them and the rest of the
internet marketing community. In a word: Attitude.
They aren't intimidated by the internet -- they eat it for breakfast. Like
ancient conquerors, they plunge into the vast sea of the internet, heedless of
its tempermental storms, jutting their jaws at the giant terrors that it holds
while the rest of us shiver on the shores, barely daring to get our toes wet.
Of course they've been knocked down, beaten back and have the scars to prove
it. But with each beating, their determination only strengthens and, as the
sting of defeat fades, they learn from their mistakes. Most of all, they never,
ever give up and never question their resolve. They will make it or die trying.
Thinking like a conqueror: THIS is the first and most elemental step to
becoming one. Because of this, they take swift, decisive action, they reach out
and grab what they want and they don't take "no" for an answer.
Okay. Great. But what does this mean to the average person? Can anyone be an
internet conqueror or do they have to be born that way?
CONQUERORS ARE MADE, NOT BORN
Attitude is everything. Attitude influences thinking patterns, which decides a
course of action which, ultimately, leads to success or failure. Like the old
saying goes, "the only true failure is the one who gives up." And the ones who
give up don't have the attitude to continue on.
So attitude is the #1 secret to conquering the internet. Below is all 8
secrets, some of which may shock those still cringing at the shoreline. It's not
necessary to do all of them, if indeed that's even possible since each can
become quite demanding. And these are not all-inclusive, since there are
probably new and better ways coming out every day. But each demonstrates the
difference in attitude and thinking of a marketer and an internet Conqueror.
1. ATTITUDE
Marketers follow once the way has been cleared. Conquerors forge ahead.
2. CREATE A PRESENCE
Marketers tend to stay in the background, creating pages and adding their
links, but never making themselves available to the general public. Conquerors
create a specific "presence", a personality that distinguishes them from others.
This attracts attention, which also attracts sales. They do this by...
3. START AN ORIGINAL NEWSLETTER
Marketers read newsletters; Conquerors write them. If this seems daunting,
begin it as a blog with an RSS Feed. Do NOT use a pre-written system or import
other's content. The key is to create something unique that cannot be
duplicated.
4. PUBLISH AN EBOOK
Marketers read ebooks; Conquerors write them. It doesn't have to be very long,
just original and informative. If this seems like too much, start by publishing
articles. Once 10-15 articles have been written, re-write them into one cohesive
collection.
5. START AN ARTICLE SUBMISSION SITE
Marketers submit articles; Conquerors run the submission sites. Again, this
software is available, in some cases, for free. By doing this, both authors and
newsletters come to the Conquerors' site, instead of vise versa.
6. START A FORUM
Marketers go to forums; Conquerors create forums and draw others to them. The
key to this is finding a niche that has no forum and starting one. There are
programs that offer free forum programs on the internet. But be prepared to set
policy and moderate the forum, as well as promote it.
7. CREATE A SEARCH ENGINE
Marketers submit to search engines; Conquerors run them. Again, the software is
available online. There are even some that, to some extent are self-automated.
The only set up involved is writing a simple letter to the submission services,
asking that they include your site in their listings.
8. CREATE A HOMEPAGE
Marketers have a home page; Conquerors provide them. A home page may require a
bit more set up, bandwidth and maintenance than other options but, by creating a
home page, a conqueror draws regular visitors to themselves and a revenue source
for posting ads.
There is a recurring theme in each of these examples. That is, to do something
which organically attracts visitors. So the final difference? Marketers run
after visitors; Conquerors attract visitors to them.--moAbout the Author

They cleanse and give us air to breathe, beautify our surroundings, supply us
with food and shelter and provide cures for our many ailments. It is best to
know the value of each plant and acknowledges that most plants and herbs
transcend their use in our kitchen counters and some can now be found inside
medicine cabinets. Usual forms of medicinal remedies come in infusions,
decoctions, tinctures, syrups, infused oils, essential oils, ointment and
creams. Medicinal plants and herbs contain substances known to modern and
ancient civilizations for their healing properties. Until the development of
chemistry, and particularly, of the synthesis of organic compounds in the 19th
century, medicinal plants and herbs were the sole source of active principles of
curing man's ills. The genetic material of old and new herbs and plants are
coveted for their potential in discovering, combining, manipulating and
synthesizing new medicine. Thus, even if people are not aware of, or the
pharmaceutical industry does not stress the points, medicinal plants and herbs
continue to be the source of proven medicaments and of new and revolutionary
drugs. Here are five of the most common herbs that pack a mean punch - basil,
oregano, peppermint, rosemary and tarragon. BASIL (Octimum basilicum) is used
to treat stomach cramps, vomiting, fever, colds, flu, headaches, whooping cough,
and menstrual pains. It is also used to reduce stomach acid, making it an
effective treatment for ulcers, and valuable addition to any recipe using
tomatoes for those with sensitive stomachs. Externally, it can be used in other
countries to eliminate worms from the intestines and the oil from basil leaves
is applied directly to the skin to treat acne. OREGANO (Origanum vulgare) is
used to promote perspiration as a treatment for colds, flue and fevers. A tea of
oregano is often used to bring on menstruation and relieve associated menstrual
discomfort. It is also used in baths and inhalations, and by drinking the
infusion, clears lungs and bronchial passages. Internally and externally, it can
help alleviate dry itching skin. The essential oil is used to treat viral
infections, respiratory ailments, and muscle aches. Pregnant women would not
ingest large amounts of oregano. PEPPERMINT (Mentha piperita) has been in
existence for a long time. Peppermint tea helps with indigestion and relaxes the
muscles of the digestive tract. Its chief therapeutic value lies in its ability
to relieve wind, flatulence, bloating and colic, though it has many of the
applications. Studies have shown that peppermint relieves colon spasms and helps
to cure ulcers and eases nervous headaches. Its main menthol, has antibacterial
properties. Externally, the essential oil is used in balms and liniments to
stimulate hot and cold nerve endings and increase local blood flow. ROSEMARY
(Rosmarinus officinalis) is a stimulant of the circulatory system. It is used
to treat bites and stings externally. Internally, it is used to treat migraines,
bad breath, and to stimulate the sexual organs. It is also used to treat nervous
disorders, upset stomachs, and is used to regulate the menstrual cycle and ease
cramps. Mixing the crushed leaves generously into meats, fish and potato salads
prevents food poisoning while using it in antiseptic gargles relieves sore
throat, gum problems and canker sores. The essential oil is used in aromatherapy
as an inhalant and decongestant, and to enhance memory. Rosemary is also used in
lotions to ease arthritis and muscle pain. TARRAGON (Artermisia dracunculus) is
widely used as a herb in cooking. In France, it is sometimes known as "herbe au
dragon", because of its ability to cure serpent bites. While tarragon stimulates
the digestion, it is reputed to be a mild sedative and has been taken to aid
sleep. With its mild menstruation-inducing properties, it is take if periods are
delayed and its root has traditionally been applied to aching teeth. Clearly,
herbs have taken on a new role. They're not only used for decorating and adding
spice to our food but, taken in the appropriate dose and form, can be as
effective as drugs in curing illnesses, without causing pain in your pocket.
