Have you found yourself asking how can I make a small Difference in the Life of a Returning Marine, Soldier, Sailor or Airman(Woman) and thinking "Well What can I do that would create a Positive Impact on their futures when they return to the Civi World"
Here is something that will only take a moment of your time and then you can pass it on to all of your Friends who then can pass on to all of their Friends and so on and so on.
Together we really can make a difference so Please take a moment to sign the GI Bill Petition and let us all give back to all of Those who have gave so unselfishly of their Lives and Time for us so that we can sit our fat happy asses on our soft cushiony Sofas at night and sleep in a warm dry bed and eat something other than MREs.
Dear GI Bill Supporters,
Your response to our GI Bill petition has been overwhelming! Within a week, we collected over 20,000 signatures demanding John McCain co-sponsor the GI Bill for the 21st century. And our film, Why Won't McCain Sign the GI Bill?, received over 76,000 YouTube views. We will be delivering these signatures to Senator McCain on Monday, but before then we need one more push.
Please pass this petition on to your friends and urge them to sign. We need to give our message a little more heft to make sure McCain hears us loud and clear.
If Senator McCain cosponsors the GI Bill, it will signal other Republicans to do the same. The bill now has 51 cosponsors from both parties, and once it gets 60, it will pass to the President's desk. But, to get there, we need your help.
And when we deliver the petition Washington DC this Monday, we want our veterans to be there with us! If any vet wants to join in the delivery, e-mail info@votevets.org. Be sure to write "petition delivery" in the subject line.
Thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,
Robert Greenwald and Jon Soltz

Effectiveness of Traffic Exchange Programs
By now if you have your Business up and running you are discovering that there are a Million and One Ways in which to generate traffic to your Web Site.
I am quite sure that you are familiar with the Term "Traffic Exchange Program"
These are quite resourceful in drawing traffic to your Web Site and very Cost Efficient if you are working on a ShoeString Budget. You can sign up with Traffic Exchange Programs for free and Click your way to gaining Credits that you in turn can use to advertise your Web Site to other Traffic Exchange Members.
The thing I like most about using Traffic Exchange Programs is if I am too busy to sit here and look at other members advertisements then I am offered a lost cost way to purchase credits. I have to admit that I do cheat quite often given my Schedule. I do however make sure that I make time to do the clicking myself every now and then just to see what is being advertised so that I know I should get reasonable consideration for what it is that I am offering. If I find a Traffic Exchange Program that has a lot of Similar Programs to mine then I seek out a different Traffic Exchange. I do not want viewers to become immune and thereby just wait out their time before the next Advertisement pops up.
I did some reasearch today and ran across a terrific Article giving great pointers on using Traffic Exchange Programs.
I do hope that you will get out of this as much as I did. It just stood to confirm to me that I am on the right track. I always like to check and make sure that I am doing the right thing in my efforts to drive Traffic to my Websites.
How To Make Traffic Exchange Programs Work For You!
By Joe Rispoli
What do all websites need to be successful? Traffic! Do you know that one of the cheapest, easiest and quickest ways to generate traffic is by using traffic exchanges?
The way they work is that you earn credits by surfing other peoples websites. Your earned credits are then used to show other people your website. To join, you need to submit your name, email and website. Your website will then go into rotation with the other websites that have registered with that particular traffic exchange.
When surfing on a traffic exchange there is a counter that counts down a certain number of seconds and when the counter is done you have to click on a number to move to the next site. They operate on a credit system and you get credit by spending time on a particular website. Your credit gets reduced when another member of the exchange visits your website. Increasing your credit gives your website a more effective and wider reach.
A good tip is to use a multi-tab browser. This will allow you to surf many exchanges at the same time by running several websites in multiple tabs while only one window is open for viewing in your browser. The Firefox Browser and newer versions of Netscape will let you surf multiple exchanges at once.
Here are some more tips on how to get the most from traffic exchanges:
1. Try to use only about 3-5 good exchanges. It is difficult to keep up with too many and this will allow you to focus your efforts on productive advertising.
2. You must take the time to surf and build up credits. Plan to stick with it for a couple of months at least.
3. You can also advertise your traffic exchange referral links from one exchange to another and build your downline while also getting more free credits.
4. Do not just use your main website on the exchanges. Advertise additional pages off of your main website page that have special offers or other related services.
5. Be different and offer something for free, such as an ebook, software, etc. There is nothing wrong with being nice and offering people a free gift for visiting your website.
6. If your offering a network marketing or affiliate program then do yourself a favor and create your own opt-in form. Something new will attract more attention.
7. Leave the selling for another time. Try and get as many emails as possible and then worry about making the sale. Offer a newsletter related to your website.
When determining what traffic exchanges to use it is important that you are able to promote multiple URLs. You want the capability to promote other services or programs other then your main one. Since you will be using a number of traffic exchange programs you can promote one traffic exchange on another exchange. This will make it easier for you to get free credits by referring others. Do not forget that you also may want to be able to promote any affiliate programs that you may be involved with.
Some of the free traffic exchange sites may only let you add a few pages, but you can get around this by changing the ones you are promoting at any time even though it is more work. If a traffic exchange program is sending visitors to your website then the extra work is worth it.
As with any other form of advertising on the internet you have to do some research to determine the best traffic exchanges for your needs. Here are some helpful tips for finding good quality traffic exchanges:
1. Find out which ones rank high on Google, and also in the paid ads. A traffic exchange site that is worth your effort will be able to afford to get a high search engine ranking and be able to pay a lot of money for paid classified ads.
2. Use Alexa.com and check the rankings of the exchange sites. If a site has a high Alexa ranking, then they probably have lots of traffic. If you join that traffic exchange then you now have your website appearing on a highly visible site. For example, Trafficswarm has a high Alexa ranking.
3. You can try to find reviews online, but that may not be a good idea since people are going to promote a program because they want to sign you up through their referral link.
4. Select exchanges with many members and try to determine whether the exchange already has alot of websites that are similar to yours, if they do then move on!
5. Try to use traffic exchanges that have categories available for you to place your website in. This will give you more targeted traffic.
The real key to free traffic exchanges is that you do not have to upgrade or spend any money to buy credits. You can always stop using them if you do not get any results.
A good traffic exchange program that is free should be able to get you some results, if not then do not waste your time!
Even if you do not get lots of traffic, your site is being seen by real people and this helps to get your website and name in front of as many people as possible so that they may remember your website in the future.
For your website to be successful it needs to be seen by as many people and as many times as possible.

101 Tips To Avoid StartUp Pitfalls
Well Here we are at HUMP Day (Wednesday) This used to be the day I couldn't wait for. It meant leaving the Office between 5 and 6 and heading on over to the local Pub with my fellow Workers to grab that Hump Day Drink. We had to celebrate faithfully every week we had made it halfway through the Gruel and Grind of the same old thing. Well today between 5 and 6 I won't be heading to the Local Pub to have that "Made it Halfway through the Week Drink" I will be heading straight to my Computer to see what exciting things wait for me within my Backoffice of my Businesses.
Earlier today I ran across Small Business Opportunites Online Magazine click here and found this terrific article "101 Tips To Avoid StartUp Pitfalls" This article covers everything from choosing your Business to Tax Tips.
Since it is copyrighted and cannot be reproduced without written consent I have given you their link above. I strongly encourage you to check it out. You can purchase a subscription if you want but you don't have to in order to read this article or some of the other great Home Based Articles that are written.
I find my self these days hungry for any Home Based Business Reading Material I can get my hands on to ensure that I do succeed.
If you have already started up your Home Based Business you are finding out just like me, that Success is not happening Overnight. I am not running to my Mailbox to find Handfuls of Checks just waiting for me. I am not seeing thousands of Signups for my programs in a day.
What I am finding out is My Business is just starting from the Ground up. It is taking time to see my signups increase. It is taking time to see a check or two every now and then in my mailbox. It is taking time to see my traffic numbers on my websites increase. It is taking time for all of the Knowledge I am gaining to really seep into my thick head and apply it where and when and as needed.
On those days that I question myself "Is this really going to pay off and is this really worth it?" I remind myself it takes all living things time to grow and thrive.
Rome was not built in a day as a matter of fact Rome is still being built if you really thing about it and after how many Centures?, it takes a Baby from the time of inception to birth 9 months before it draws its' first breath and continues to grow every day of its' life, it takes an Elephant 22 months of Pregnancy before it gives Birth, See what I am saying?
Please don't give up, don't get discouraged, don't get tied into one way of thinking when there are a million and trillion other ways of doing the same thing, don't pout when after a week you see nothing just try harder. The more you are able to put into something the more you are going to get back.
So Tip Number 1. Choose a Focus that you Love and will enjoy doing for many moons to come.
Have a Great Evening.
