We all know that advertising is one of the lifebloods of your business. You could have the most incredible products in the world, but if no one knows you exist, you won’t make any sales.
Traditional traffic methods are great and they work well. The only problem is they are typically time consuming, a lot of work, or expensive. You definitely need to look at getting traffic in different ways.
But today I’m going to show you something that’s easy, effective, fast, and cheap.
It’s called EliteSafelist, and it’s owned by a very respected Internet Marketer, Solomon Huey.

EliteSafelist is your instant solution to getting traffic to your websites in minutes. How does it work exactly?
Imagine having a mailing list of thousands of double opt-in subscribers that you could email and tell them about your offers. Sounds great, right? It’s just hard to build that list of people.
Well EliteSafelist has fixed that problem by building a huge membership of thousands of people who are actually excited to hear from you and what you have to offer. By becoming a member, you can contact these people and tell them about your favorite programs!

That’s it! Easy right?
Yes, it’s a powerful advertising program that will bring you guaranteed website traffic. But it does much more than that if you use it properly.

* A downline builder system where your referrals could become your downline in multiple programs
What’s most powerful is the residual commissions. Just for telling one person about EliteSafelist, you could get paid for years for making a sale just once!

5 New Breakthrough Websites Make Automated Income!
There’s a brand new Membership site that has 5 websites you get that make money for you automatically – and you can get them in just 6 minutes from now – all with just 1-click!
You can literally get 5 powerful websites that are already making money!
I’m NOT joking – I’ll show you PROOF in a moment!
But what you need to know most is this:
You get…
1. 5 amazing websites!
2. 5 websites that convert sales automatically!
3. 5 websites that forcibly put money directly into your pocket!
4. 5 websites that are run by another firm for you (and at NO charge!)
5. 5 websites that continue to promote for you over & over!
6. 5 websites that grow & cultivate 5 separate proven lists!
7. 5 websites that function automatically (so you never run it!)
8. And 5 websites that you get Free HOSTING for!
And again, they all come in a very easy-to-use Members Area you get your own private Username & Password LOGIN to!
It’s rumored that the husband and wife couple who operate the sites may either LIMIT how many people are allowed in, or at the very least “choke” down the flow of new Members so as not to let just anybody get in.
It’s also been speculated that they may stop offering anymore “5-Site Set” Memberships after some time (and without notice) just to keep competition “alive and well” (but who really knows?)
Regardless of which, it’s clearly understood that once you’re in, *YOU’RE IN!* (So don’t waste time "thinking about it", or worse still: DO NOT RISK BEING LEFT OUT!)
PROOF!...

Here is the link in case you’re smart and want in just like me and the few others who’ve found this so far:

The Crucifixion of Christ--Do We Really Understand Its Significance?
As we are currently into the season of Lent in the Christian calendar, I was thinking about the Mel Gibson movie "The Passion of the Christ" that was released in 2004. I admit that before I saw the movie, I knew from bible study that Jesus was crucified, placed on the cross, died and rose again in 3 days. However, I did not really understand the magnitude of the pain and suffering He endured until I saw this movie. Think about it; He was paying the price for all our sins--the sins of the whole world. It could not have been a walk in the park.
I think Mel Gibson's movie portrayal of Jesus' crucifixion was the first movie to focus on the actual depth of the suffering He endured. The movie was so graphic (I couldn't even watch the entire scene)--as He was continually flogged until bits of flesh were coming off His body. Once I saw that, it made me realize that God truly loves His people, because He allowed His only Son to pay the ultimate price for my sins as well as the sins of everyone else. It is ironic that I saw this movie on Good Friday--I think that this was no coincidence because I have never gone to the movies on a Good Friday. I somehow felt compelled to go; I wanted to see what all the controversy surrounding the movie was about.
Before the movie came out, there was some backlash against the movie by some Jewish groups who felt that Jews were negatively portrayed in the movie as "Christ killers". However, I think Mel Gibson was as accurate as possible in depicting the events leading up to Jesus' crucifixion and death.
According to Mart De Haan from RBC Ministries, in his pamphlet entitled "Who Killed Christ?", he addresses the concern of Jewish groups of anti-Semitism being stirred up by Gibson's movie. Mr. De Haan pointed out the following:

- Jesus was not a victim--He predicted several times that He would be crucified and suffer death on a cross.
- Jewish leaders conspired to kill Jesus--The Pharisees, Sadduces, and chief priests were so jealous of Jesus-- how He was able to heal so many sick people and how so many people began to believe in His teachings that they felt their authority and leadership were being threatened.
- A Gentile signed Jesus' death order--Pontius Pilate, a Roman official gave the final order to put Jesus to death because he did not want to risk his politicl future despite knowing deep inside that Jesus had done nothing wrong.
- Roman soldiers treated Jesus like a criminal--the soldiers spat on Jesus, mocked Him as a king, beat Him with barbed whips, put a crown of thorns on His head, and marched Him through the streets like a criminal.
- One of his own disciples betrayed Him--for 30 pieces of silver, Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus by setting Him up to be arrested .

What's the Big Deal About Blogging?
Blogging has become a way of life for many people in our society as we become increasingly connected through the internet. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the word blog, it is short for "web log". According to Wikipedia.org, a blog is defined as a website that is maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video.
People blog for many reasons. They include:
1. To disseminate information about topics of interest
2. To express opinions and thoughts on topics of interest
3. To create a personal journal or diary about their everyday lives
Let's discuss each of the above reasons in more depth.
1. To disseminate information on topics of interest
If you are an expert in a particular topic of interest, and you would like to educate others about that topic, blogging is a great way to do it. Generally there is no cost involved in setting up a blog (i.e. Blogger.com is an excellent site where one can set up a free blog site) and you have the potential to reach a lot more people by the internet than you would if wrote a physical book or magazine article. Besides, blogging also gives you the opportunity to give updates about your topic as often as you wish.
2. To express opinions and thoughts on topics of interest
We all have opinions on just about everything, such as current events or topics of interest. What better way to express those opinions by creating a blog? A blog does not have to be created by an individual; it can also be created by an entity, such as TV or news program where viewers have the opportunity to send in emails about what was discussed on the air. These emails are then posted on the TV show or news blog for all to see. This in turn gives people a platform to comment on each others' emails or blog posts.
3. To create a personal journal or diary about their everyday lives
In some ways, blogging can be considered a computerized way of keeping a personal journal or diary. Before computers were in existence, people used to keep written diaries that contained entries of their most private and personal thoughts. The problem with written diaries is that they will most likely never be read by anyone else unless the author physically gives it to someone to read. A blog on the other hand, can be read by millions of people daily.
The majority of us will never become famous celebrities where the media will serve as the vehicle that would document what we think and what we do. Instead, blogging gives people the chance to get to know each other by just talking about the everyday little things that matter most. Blogging can provide an opportunity for people to create a snapshot of themselves for years to come.
Should everyone create a blog? Well, that is a personal decision -- I think it depends on what you want the blog for. If you have a passion about something and you want the world to know about it, then blog. If you have a business and you want to keep in close contact with your customers by giving them the opportunity to express their thoughts about your product or service, then blog. If you want the world to know your most intimate and private thoughts because you think that your thoughts are important enough, then blog.
Why in the world do I blog? Well, I want to give people hope and inspiration by writing about topics I care deeply about, such as leadership and possibility thinking. My blog will serve as a snapshot of who I am and
what I did in my life so people will have something to remember me by. There are millions of blogs on the internet today. If you make the decision to create one more, it is bound to capture the interest of someone else.

Having Stratospheric Faith during Turbulent Times
If you did not already know by now, we are in the midst of very turbulent times. People are suffering--high unemployment or underemployment, foreclosures on homes, high credit card debt, high cost of living and high health care costs. Some or all the worries or concerns I have just mentioned are very real to millions of people, including myself. How does one cope with all of these worries or concerns? I think that we need to have extreme or stratospheric faith in God to help us through these rough and turbulent times.
As I watched the Hour of Power church program this past Sunday, I was moved by the sermon given by Sheila Schuller Coleman titled "Stratospheric Faith: Rising Above the Turbulence". She discussed 5 common cares or concerns we all have and what the corresponding cure is for each one of them.
Concern #1: Animosity, Resentment, Bitterness
We have all had feelings of resentment or bitterness towards others because we felt that the other person hurt us on purpose. The hurt could be perceived or real; physical or mental. The point is that we harbor this anger and resentment for years and it does nothing but eat us up on the inside, causing increasing amounts of stress. God's cure for animosity and bitterness is FORGIVENESS. In order to heal ourselves mentally and physically, we need to forgive the other person for what they have done. I know that this is very difficult to do, because everyone is different, and the ability to forgive is also dependent on how deep the hurt is. I am still working on this myself. Even Jesus, when he was being crucified on the cross was able to practice forgiveness when he said in 23:34 "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do". Forgiveness does not mean forget what was done, but rather make peace with yourself, let go of the animosity and resentment, and move on. There is no point in holding grudges against people who have hurt you in the past because you cannot change the past. Just let go and ask God to give you the strength to get past the hurt.
Concern #2: Worry, Fear, Anxiety
I do not think that there is a day that goes by when we are not overly worried or fearful about something in our daily lives. We worry about the economy, terrorism, not having enough money to pay our bills; we also worry about our loved ones especially when they are doing something that could endanger them, i.e. serving in the armed forces, working as a police officer or firefighter. God's cure for worry and fear is FAITH.
We need to stop worrying about the things we cannot change and instead start focusing on strengthening our faith in God to help us. We need to have faith in God that He will set right what is wrong in our lives if we ask for His help in prayer. Jesus said in Matthew 6:34 "...do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." Jesus also said in Matthew 6:27 "Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?" We need to stop worrying about things or situations that we cannot control, and instead focus on living our lives to the fullest.
Concern #3: Pain, Depression, Grief
When something catastrophic happens, such as the 9/11 terror attacks and the devastating earthquake in Haiti, there is so much lingering pain, depression, and grief of enormous proportions, especially felt by those who were directly affected. There are differences of how people deal with major catastrophes--some overcome the grief and depression fairly quickly, while others may take years or never overcome the grief or depression at all. I repeat, we need to stop worrying about things or situations that we cannot control; we must strive to do the best you can under the circumstances. God's cure for depression and grief is PRAISE. In her sermon, Sheila Schuller Coleman said that no matter how bad the situation that is causing us so much pain and depression, we need to give praise and thanks for something. In other words, say Lord, I thank you for_____". If we get in the habit of saying thank you, that will help us overcome our grief and depression over time.
Concern #4: Inferiority and Inadequacy
It is important to remember that God put every one of us on this earth for a reason. We are unique individuals who differ in appearance and thoughts. Therefore, we should not compare ourselves against each other, wondering why we are not as smart, rich, or have as much as the next person. God's cure for feelings of inferiority is PURPOSE. Each of us must find out what God wants us to do while we are on this earth. Once we find out what God's purpose for us is, we need to fulfill that purpose to the best of our ability.
Concern #5: Humiliation, Guilt, Shame
There have been times when we have all done something that we are not proud of and later regret--wishing that we could somehow undo what was done. Because of our actions, other people were hurt and negatively affected. In any event, we feel deeply sorry for what we have done and may be carrying a large amount of guilt and shame because of it. God's cure for guilt and shame is GRACE. We must remember that Jesus died on the cross and rose again for all our sins. We do not have to "pay" for our sins; our sins are forgiven by God through Jesus paying the ultimate price. Therefore, we do not have to carry the burden of guilt and shame on our backs.
I think it is important that we each look inside ourselves and examine what worries us the most. Once that is done, practice on God's cure for that worry. This may take some time, but the most important thing is to make a start, one step at a time. If this is done consistently, we can cope much better during turbulent times.

Online Social Networking--A Cultural Phenomenon
In the not too distant past, people networked or communicated in the following ways:
· Meeting people face to face at parties or social mixers
· Writing letters, i.e. Pen Pals
· Telephone calls
As we have now entered the Information Age, it is now easier more than ever to network with others. As a result, online social networking has opened doors that did not previously exist.
With the presence of Internet social network sites like Facebook, PeopleString, and MySpace, one can communicate with friends and family by email or by downloading videos and photos. Online networking has made it possible for people to communicate with each other across the country as well as around the world-where they would otherwise never have the opportunity to connect.
As social networking becomes more and more popular among people and businesses alike, new social websites like PeopleString, will eventually emerge, bringing thousands of people together for a variety of purposes, such as:
· Career advancement-finding jobs
· Dating-finding a suitable mate for a long lasting relationship
· Forming groups or clubs that share a common interest
· Announcing or broadcasting important events
· Maintaining contact with friends and family who live far away
Online networking also provides low cost or free advertising for businesses. This explains why many businesses now have either fan pages on websites like Facebook or a Twitter account. Business owners in general now realize the ability of social websites to reach millions of people in order to promote their products or services.
Whether you love or hate social networking or have no opinion about it at all, online networking is here to stay, and it can be extremely beneficial to anyone who uses it. To really take advantage of online networking, I suggest that people join as many of these sites as possible so that you can contact lots of people to develop long-term relationships. Social networking is something that should be embraced rather than feared.

As social networking becomes more and more popular among people and businesses alike, new social websites like PeopleString, will eventually emerge, bringing thousands of people together for a variety of purposes, such as:
· Career advancement-finding jobs
· Dating-finding a suitable mate for a long lasting relationship
· Forming groups or clubs that share a common interest
· Announcing or broadcasting important events
· Maintaining contact with friends and family who live far away
Online networking also provides low cost or free advertising for businesses. This explains why many businesses now have either fan pages on websites like Facebook or a Twitter account. Business owners in general now realize the ability of social websites to reach millions of people in order to promote their products or services.
Whether you love or hate social networking or have no opinion about it at all, online networking is here to stay, and it can be extremely beneficial to anyone who uses it. To really take advantage of online networking, I suggest that people join as many of these sites as possible so that you can contact lots of people to develop long-term relationships. Social networking is something that should be embraced rather than feared.
