Federal district court nominee Michael Boggs of Georgia had his confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday. The hearing was his opportunity to address the many serious concerns we and others have had about his record. When he first ran for office as a state judge, he assured voters that they could know where he stood by looking at his legislative record, including his opposition to marriage equality. But judges aren't supposed to let their personal political beliefs determine how they rule on cases. In addition, the legislative record he cited is deeply disturbing.
Unfortunately, his testimony in response to senators' questions only deepened our concerns. So in a letter Wednesday to members of the Senate, People For the American Way expressed strong opposition to this confirmation. PFAW Executive Vice President Marge Baker and Senior Legislative Counsel Paul Gordon delineated the reasoning behind the organization's opposition to Boggs' confirmation.
"[Boggs'] record makes clear that senators should not confirm him to a lifetime position as a United States judge," the letter states. "…we do not believe Michael Boggs has demonstrated that he would be able to bring to his service as a lifetime judge on the federal courts the requisite impartiality necessary for such a position."
The five page letter discusses the problems around Boggs' ability to perform in the role of judge and his actions relating to LGBT equality, reproductive rights, and government promotion of religion. It also discusses the controversy around his support for the inclusion of Confederate imagery in the Georgia state flag, as well as his candor before the Judiciary Committee. You can read the full text of the letter here.
The radical anti-choice group Personhood USA has waded into the very public battle over the anti-choice movement's strategy that is playing out in Georgia.
Over the weekend, a long-running feud among abortion-rights opponents broke into a full civil war when the National Right to Life Committee, the nation's largest anti-choice group, cut its ties with Georgia Right to Life because of the Georgia group's hardline, no-compromise strategy.
While all the major anti-choice groups share the same goal – criminalizing all abortions under nearly all circumstances – they differ in how to go about reaching that goal in a post-Roe v. Wade world. This came to a boil last year, when the House voted on a bill banning all abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy. At the last minute, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor added rape and incest exemptions to the bill after the legislation's chief sponsor, Trent Franks, stoked controversy when he said "the incidence of rape resulting in pregnancy are very low." The addition of rape and incest exceptions then caused the anti-choice movement to split.
National Right to Life supported the revised bill and included the vote on its congressional scorecard. But Georgia Right to Life, then the state affiliate of NRLC, opposed the revised bill because of its rape and incest exceptions and urged House members to "vote against this shameful legislation." Two Georgia Republicans, including Rep. Paul Broun, who is now running for Senate, crossed party lines to vote against the bill, siding with Georgia Right to Life.
One of the loudest critics of Georgia Right to Life's insubordination was Georgia-based conservative pundit Erick Erickson, who called the group the "Westboro Baptist Church of the pro-life movement." A few weeks ago, a new group with Erickson on its board sprung up with the goal of replacing Georgia Right to Life as the official state affiliate of NRLC. And this weekend, they succeeded, as NRLC cut ties with Georgia Right to Life and took on Erickson's group, Georgia Life Alliance, in its place.
NRLC's decision has served to further split the anti-choice movement. Yesterday, Personhood USA – the group behind radical "personhood" laws – waded into the fight, with its president Keith Mason issuing an open letter to NRLC saying that he was "shocked" by the group's decision and giving it an ultimatum: "We can have no conflict between us unless it is you who abandon our common aim to protect every human being's right to life. Only then will we part ways."
National Right to Life,
What does it mean to be pro-life? Is it about protecting every innocent human being or about getting good marks on the NRLC scorecard? I was shocked when I read your decision to revoke affiliation with Georgia Right to Life.
It's time to decide what our standard is as a movement. If being pro-life is about getting good marks on the NRLC scorecard and voting the party line, like Eric Cantor, then we will continue to enable political opportunists who have no interest in ending abortion. If it is about protecting the lives and inherent dignity of every unborn child -- Personhood -- then we will praise statesmen who adhere to that standard rather than reprimanding them. That was the standard set by the GOP platform and the legislative agenda endorsed in President Ronald Reagan's Abortion and the Conscience of a Nation.
We are not enemies, but friends. We ought not be enemies, for we are allied in the same great struggle for human dignity. We seek unity with you toward that end. It is in your hands to decide which standard to follow. We can have no conflict between us unless it is you who abandon our common aim to protect every human being's right to life. Only then will we part ways. I ask you to reconsider your commitment to our movement's singular purpose and beg you to rededicate yourselves to protecting and defending Personhood for all, no matter the cost.
UPDATE (4/1/14): The personhood group American Right to Life, which makes no secret of its disdain for NRLC, has also come out to defend Georgia Right to Life, writing in a press release that NRLC have "lost the vision for victory" and "ruined the term" "pro-life."
Last week, we wrote about the infighting among anti-choice groups – between those that will settle for nothing short of banning abortion with no exceptions and those that are willing to take a more incremental approach to the same goal – that's bubbling to the surface in contentious GOP Senate primaries in Kentucky and Georgia.
Georgia's feud is particularly dramatic: Georgia Right to Life, the state affiliate of the National Right to Life Committee, broke with the national group last year when it opposed a federal 20-week abortion ban that the national group supported, refusing to endorse the legislation because it included exceptions for rape and incest.
Republican congressman and Senate candidate Paul Broun sided with the state group and voted against the ban because of the rape and incest exceptions; his fellow representatives Jack Kingston and Phil Gingrey, who are also running for the Senate seat, sided with the national group and voted for the ban. Former Susan G. Komen executive Karen Handel, another leading Senate contender, also supports rape exceptions to abortion bans.
Georgia Right to Life's open split with National Right to Life over the 20-week abortion ban drew the ire of Macon-based conservative pundit Erick Erickson, who called the hardline Georgia group "the Westboro Baptist Church of the pro-life movement" and declared, "we need a new pro-life group in Georgia."
Enter Georgia Life Alliance, a brand new anti-choice group that mysteriously sprung up a few weeks ago with the goal of taking Georgia Right to Life's spot as the state affiliate of National Right to Life. Erickson quickly acknowledged that he was involved in the new organization and would be on its board.
And this weekend, Erickson completed his coup, as National Right to Life announced that it was ending its relationship with Georgia Right to Life and taking on Georgia Life Alliance as its new affiliate. In a press release, the national organization blamed the split on Georgia Right to Life's insubordination and defended its legislative strategy, claiming it "has helped save millions of lives."
In short, by its own actions, Georgia Right to Life ruptured its relationship with National Right to Life.
National Right to Life and its affiliates seek to restore legal protection for all unborn children from the moment of their conception. Until the Supreme Court allows broad protections for unborn children, we work to protect as many children as possible by passing the strongest possible laws at the state and federal level. That legislative strategy has helped save millions of lives – and continues to save lives today.
Georgia Right to Life then lashed out in return, calling the national group's decision a "tragedy":
"It's a tragedy that a pioneering, highly successful pro-life organization is considered unworthy to remain affiliated with National Right to Life (NRLC)," Becker said. "It's especially hard to understand, since GRTL has accomplished so much."
Meanwhile, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Daniel Malloy caught up with Broun, who chided National Right to Life and said he wished everyone in the anti-choice movement would just get along:
"I'm saddened that those of us that believe in life are fighting amongst ourselves. We ought to be fighting to protect the lives of unborn children instead of quibbling about differences of opinion of strategy. I'm honored that Georgia Right to Life has endorsed my candidacy for U.S. Senate. …
"I know that Georgia Right to Life has been at the forefront in the state of Georgia fighting for life. What National Right to Life did is I think unfortunate for the people who have been involved with Georgia Right to Life for a long period of time."
In an echo of the electoral battle between Tea Party groups and the establishment GOP, Senate candidates in Colorado and Georgia are being caught up in a long-simmering conflict between purists and pragmatists in the anti-choice movement.
Rep. Cory Gardner of Colorado attracted national attention yesterday when he announced that he was reversing his previous support for radical and wildly unpopular anti-choice "personhood" laws. Personhood USA, the primary group pushing such laws, promptly responded with a press release declaring that "Cory Gardner has betrayed the Republican Party, his pro-life voters, and most importantly, unborn babies in Colorado" and (hilariously) insisting that Mitt Romney lost the 2012 election because he didn't get behind personhood.
Now, the anti-choice site Life News is citing the Susan B. Anthony List's endorsement of Gardner in his previous congressional race to attack Personhood USA, accusing them of trying to sabotage the race. Reporter Steven Erkelt writes:
Unlike Harry Reid and his friends who control the Senate, Cory Gardner will give the pro-life movement another vote and the potential to actually pass legislation that will stop abortions and abortion funding. At a critical time when the rest of the pro-life movement is working in unison to win control of the Senate and stop abortion, Personhood USA should stop misleading pro-lifers about our pro-life candidates.
Meanwhile, in Georgia, anti-choice groups are also engaged in a public spat on strategy, linked to a contentious Republican Senate primary.
A brand new group called Georgia Life Alliance is reportedly challenging Georgia Right to Life, a prominent state anti-choice lobbying group that subscribes to the "all-or-nothing" strategy, for its spot representing Georgia within National Right to Life.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Jim Galloway writes that the public feud between the Georgia groups "has everything to do with the U.S. Senate race," in which anti-choice absolutist Rep. Paul Broun is vying with Karen Handel, an anti-choice crusader who nevertheless supports legal exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of a pregnant woman – and has been endorsed by the Susan B. Anthony List .
There's an assumption in these quarters that this has everything to do with the U.S. Senate race. U.S. Rep. Paul Broun, R-Athens, is prominently featured on the current GRTL website, praised for his endorsement of the organization's aggressive approach – which some critics have described as all-or-nothing.
Likewise, the group's antipathy toward former secretary of state Karen Handel dates to the 2010 race for governor and beyond.
The major point of contention: The National Right to Life organization allows for exceptions to abortion bans in cases of rape and incest. GRTL does not, and has insisted that no politician who endorses those exceptions can be considered pro-life.
Last June, Broun voted against a "fetal pain" abortion bill backed by House Republicans that would ban abortions after a fetus is 20 weeks old. He and Georgia Right to Life blanched when House Republican leaders inserted exceptions for rape and incest.
The vote last year on the national 20-week abortion ban pitted National Right to Life, which supported the ban even though it contained rape and incest exceptions, against Georgia Right to Life, which sided with Broun in saying it didn't go far enough, and subsequently endorsed him for Senate.
Two other Georgia representatives in the race, Rep. Phil Gingrey and Rep. Jack Kingston, sided with the national group voted for the bill with the rape and incest exceptions, with Kingston saying, "As we live in this post Roe v. Wade world, the reality is that we have to play chess, not checkers."
In response to Georgia Right for Life's breaking of ranks on the 20-week bill, RedState blogger Erick Erickson called for the formation of a rival Georgia group, a wish that has apparently come true this week.
UPDATE (3/27/14): Surprise, surprise: It turns out that Erickson was involved in the creation of Georgia Life Alliance, and will be on its board.
CORRECTION: This post has been updated to clarify that Life News was citing Susan B. Anthony List's endorsement of Cory Gardner in a previous race.
Last week, Georgia approved a specialty license plate proposed by the Sons of Confederate Veterans, which features a confederate flag.
Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal, who had previously dodged questions about the plate, told Atlanta's Channel 11 today that he wasn't "concerned about" the plate and that "hopefully those who take offense at it will look at the fact that it is part of a cultural heritage of our state."
When asked by 11Alive's Paul Crawley if he thought the plate should be changed and if it might hurt Georgia's image, Deal said, 'I don't think so, I mean it is one of many specialty plates that we have that are supportive of a variety of organizations and causes, so I don't think that it is something that we should be so concerned about. Hopefully those who take offense at it will look at the fact that it is a part of a cultural heritage of our state.'
Sons of Confederate Veterans has a history of racism and has claimed "there is no difference between the invasion of France by Hitler and the invasion of the Southern states by Lincoln."
Georgia Republican congressman and Senate candidate Paul Broun has been trying to out-extreme his opponents on the issue of immigration reform, announcing in a debate this weekend that the only immigration law he wants is one "that makes English the official language of America." In an interview with Tea Party Express earlier this month, Broun made the same policy recommendation, claiming that comprehensive immigration reform would be "disastrous for Republicans" and "disastrous for anybody who is freedom-loving."
Later in the interview, Broun claimed that "both political parties today are domestic enemies to the Constitution" and that he is a "freedom-fighter" who is "fighting those people."
I think if John Boehner were to press on with comprehensive immigration reform, it will be disastrous for Republicans, not only in this election, but for decades to come. And it would be disastrous for anybody who is freedom-loving and wants to reduce the size of government. I introduced the "No Amnesty" resolution, which says, "no amnesty for anyone with any immigration reform." And we should not have amnesty. We should be a nation that is directed under the rule of law.
Until we secure the borders, nothing else matters. And then we have to start enforcing the laws that are on the books. There's only one new law I would like to see passed. One, and only one. And that's one to make English the official language of America.
We've got to go back to the limited government as our founding fathers meant it, and that means by golly we've got to go back to the Constitution. When I was sworn into the Marine Corps, when I was sworn into Congress, I swore to uphold the Constitution against enemies both foreign and domestic. Both political parties today are domestic enemies to the Constitution. I'm fighting those people. I'm a freedom fighter. I'm fighting for liberty and freedom.
Remember two years ago when the Susan G. Komen For the Cure foundation abruptly dropped its grants to a Planned Parenthood breast-cancer screening program, setting off a national outcry, and prompting the resignation of the Komen official reportedly behind the decision?
The fallout of the debacle is still hurting Komen, which recently reported a 22 percent drop in income over the past year. But the decision to cut off grants to Planned Parenthood seems to be paying off for one person: Karen Handel, the former Komen vice president who was widelyreported to have been the driving force behind split.
Now running for Senate in Georgia, Handel has released a campaign video touting her role in severing Planned Parenthood from Komen and fighting back against the "left-wing groups" and "liberal media" that criticized her.
Back when the news first broke that Komen had dumped Planned Parenthood, Handel denied that the decision was motivated at all by her anti-choice politics, despite reports from sources in the organization that said she manipulated its rules to cast Planned Parenthood out.
The campaign video has a different take, framing Handel as an anti-choice crusader caught in a David vs. Goliath struggle. "As a strong believer in the sanctity of life, Karen Handel had to make a decision: keep quiet in the face of the liberal onslaught, or stand by her convictions," the video announces.
In speeches and interviews, Handel has made the Planned Parenthood showdown a centerpiece of her biography. She even paved the way for her Senate run by releasing a book calling Planned Parenthood "thugs" and "bullies."
Whatever Handel's motivations or role in the Komen/Planned Parenthood split, the whole episode seems to be working out pretty well for her. The decision that Handel advocated for might have left Komen struggling financially, but Handel herself now has the perfect story to prove her status as an anti-choice activist martyred by the liberal media.
Recently The New York Times reminded us that Representative John Lewis is still marching on Washington, 50 years later.
On August 28, 1963, as the 23-year-old chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), Lewis took the podium on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
Tomorrow, as the 73-year-old representative from Georgia's 5th congressional district, he will commemorate the 50th anniversary of those remarks.
Representative Lewis returns to the podium as the sole surviving speaker from the March on Washington.
A half century ago he was the torchbearer for youth leadership in the Civil Rights Movement. The message he delivered still hits home for youth leaders like those of Young People For.
Here at YP4 we know that "justice for all" is an expansive idea that includes pushing for and protecting civil rights, women's rights, LGBT equality and more. It means rededicating ourselves to the promise of vibrant, safe, democratic communities. It means fighting for a country where our voices are not drowned out by massive corporate spending to influence our elections. It means standing up to groups like ALEC which push extreme laws threatening the wellbeing of our communities, such as the "Stand Your Ground" laws that YP4 alumni like [Phillip] Agnew – leader of the Dream Defenders in Florida – have been fighting to change.
In other words, we know that "justice for all" is a promise that has yet to be realized.
Join us tomorrow as Representative Lewis and others once again bring the struggle for jobs, justice, and freedom back to the nation's capital. Check out MLKDREAM50 for information on the full week of events.
Georgia Republican congressman and Senate candidate Paul Broun has hardly hid his opposition to creating a new immigration policies. Back in June, for instance, he warned that immigration reform would "destroy our country" and "destroy our Constitution and limited government."
Speaking with Steve Malzberg earlier this week, Broun repeated his warning that if the House GOP compromises at all on immigration, "America, economically, is doomed because we cannot afford to put these people on government largesse."
By "these people," Broun means formerly undocumented immigrations working toward citizenship, whom Broun claims Sen. Chuck Schumer, one of the authors of the Senate immigration bill, "wants to put on…federal welfare programs and federal largesse so that they vote for the Democrats and keep Democrats in power for perpetuity."
"Anything that Chuck Schumer's for, any freedom-loving American should be against," Broun added.
Recently, Georgia state Senator Barry Loudermilk appeared on TBN's "Praise the Lord" where he made the rather familiar argument that the Founding Fathers took the concepts of the separation of powers and the three branches of government directly out of the Bible.
Claiming that John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington all directly cited the Bible as justification for these concepts, Loudermilk asserted that Jeremiah 17:9's claim that "the heart is devious above all else" made the Founder realize the need to divide power among various branches of government, which they took directly from Isaiah 33:22's declaration that "the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our ruler, the Lord is our king":
If that argument seems familiar, it is because it came directly from David Barton, who has made the baseless assertion time and time and time again:
It is untrue every time Barton says it and is equally untrue when Loudermilk mindlessly repeats it.
Out of State Money Floods Contests in 2012
Washington, DC – Today People For the American Way Foundation unveiled new state-by-state fact sheets detailing outside spending in U.S. Senate and House races in 21 states. Each report analyzes the outside spending totals from Super PACs, dark money groups, and out-of-state spenders in the down ballot federal races from the 2012 election cycle. The fact sheets reveal that, on average, a majority of outside election money in these states came from Super PACs. And in every case, a vast majority came from organizations registered outside of the state.
The release of the "Outside Spending, Outsized Influence" reports coincide with the weekend marking Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and the third anniversary of Citizens United v. FEC to draw attention to the dual threats of voter suppression and unlimited corporate and special interest money in politics. The reports – a partnership between PFAWF and U.S. PIRG – are part of the Money Out/Voters In campaign. As part of that campaign, People For the American Way Foundation, its affiliate People For the American Way, and other organizers across the country are hosting "Day of Action" events in more than 76 cities in 33 states this weekend. Members of People For the American Way Foundation's African American Ministers Leadership Council will be leading Money Out/Voters In events in Georgia, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Virginia.
"Last year's elections were far and away the most expensive in history," said People For the American Way Foundation Executive Vice President Marge Baker. "A major reason was the influx of outside, special interest spending in the wake of the Supreme Court's Citizens United v. FEC decision. When big money floods our elections, it dwarfs the ability of individual Americans to have their voices heard. Just as important, when politicians push laws to suppress the vote, we turn back the clock on decades on progress to expand and improve our democracy. We need to pursue the full range of remedies to address the problem of too much money in politics, including amending the Constitution to overturn Citizens United, and we need to stand up against the growing threat of voter suppression. This weekend we are joining with allies across the country to call for a democracy that gets Money Out and Voters In."
The states featured in the reports are California, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, North Carolina, New Jersey, Nevada, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, and Wisconsin.

On Track Incident Procedure
In alignment with NASCAR new ruling to keep drivers safe during on-track incidents, GPS has also adopted the following rule:
On-Track Incident Procedure: (added August 2014)
During an event, if a race car is involved in an on-track incident and/or is stopped on or near the racing surface and unable to continue to make forward progress, unless extenuating emergency conditions exist with the race car (i.e. fire, smoke in cockpit, etc.) the driver should take the following steps:
• Shut off electrical power and, if driver is uninjured, lower window net
• Do not loosen, disconnect or remove any driver personal safety equipment until directed to do so by safety personnel or a NASCAR/Track Official
• After being directed to exit the racecar, the driver should proceed to either the ambulance, other vehicle, or as otherwise directed by safety personnel or a NASCAR/Track Official
• At no time should a driver or crew member(s) approach any portion of the racing surface or apron
• At no time should a driver or crew member(s) approach another moving vehicle
All vehicles not involved in the incident or that are able to continue afterwards should slow down to a cautious speed, use extreme care as they approach an incident scene, and follow any directions given by safety personnel or NASCAR/Track Officials. Cars in line behind the leader should not weave or otherwise stray from the line in the vicinity of the incident.

Anders Adds to His Win Total
A Bittersweet Weekend for Anders
GREENVILLE, SC - It was a sad, emotional, yet triumphant evening for Anthony Anders Saturday night at Greenville-Pickens Speedway. Anders, currently the NASCAR National Late-Model Stock points leader, the South Carolina leader, and track leader, lost his mother earlier this week and nothing would have suited Anders better than to be able to mourn his loss with the rest of his family. But the points championships are just too important, and Anthony's mom was his number one fan, so he raced, jumped out front and took the win in the first of two 40-lap main events, then dedicated the win to his mom. Then Anders backed up his early effort with another victory, this one in the nightcap. When he got out of his car, in Victory Lane after the first race, the fence dividing the grandstand from the tack was lined with fan who gave him an ovation for his feat.

An important part (and I think sometimes scary part) of using cloth diapers is the actually process of cloth diaper washing. If you choose to wash cloth diapers yourself, rather than use a service, you have to ensure that you are getting the diapers clean without negatively impacting their ability to absorb. Though I have been using cloth...

29 Mar 2015
By Anny Shaw. Web onlyPublished online: 10 February 2014
Police in Britain are warning that First World War memorabilia is at increased risk of theft this year, the centenary of the outbreak of war in 1914. Experts cited in a report published by the Association of Chief Police Officers say that the anniversary could "drive demand for heritage assets" and that thefts from museums and battlefields are "increasingly likely".
Members of the trade are downplaying the threat, however; they say that the market for First World War artefacts is relatively small and that historic objects are worth much less without provenance documents, so stealing an item without its related paperwork would not prove lucrative.Jon Baddeley, the managing director of Bonhams Knightsbridge, which is due to hold a First World War centenary sale on 24 September, acknowledges that commemorative events over the next five years will increase interest in the market. Personal items that tell of life in the trenches are among the most sought after, he says. For example, a letter from an unknown British soldier to his mother, describing the Christmas Day truce in 1914, sold for £14,400 at Bonhams in 2006. But a Victoria Cross, the highest military award for valour, which is worth £250,000 with documents linking it to a specific individual, would fetch "almost nothing" without provenance, Baddeley says.The risk of theft is minimal in the lower and middle tiers of the market, says David Cohen, one of only a handful of art dealers in Britain to specialise in First World War memorabilia. However, he says the threat to museums that house valuable objects "could be very real". But William Brown, the national security adviser at Arts Council England, says he has "not received any specific intelligence" that First World War artefacts in museums are in danger.War memorials are also at risk because of an increase in the theft of base metals, the police report says. "The majority of crimes committed against the historic environment are not committed by organised criminal gangs—they are committed by individuals following the path of least resistance to easy cash," the report says. It notes, for example, that a sculpture by Henry Moore worth £500,000 ($820,000), which was stolen from the Henry Moore Foundation in Hertfordshire in 2012, was later sold to a scrap-metal dealer for £46.50 ($76).

Background On Corey Gates
If you are like most people, you have tried your hand at making money on the Internet. This was the case for Corey Gates only two years ago. A construction worker that was struggling to pay his bills, he decided to attempt to make money on the web. Despite the fact that he was earning well over $80,000 a year, he was still not making enough to make ends meet. Providing for his family the best that he could, he was only able to rent an apartment and pay for the basic necessities. He was only a few days ahead of an impending bankruptcy when he was fortunate enough to discover the system.
Origins Of The Tube Cash Codes System
The way that Corey is able to make money is by using a secret system for marketing videos which allows people to generate thousands of dollars a day. This was a system that he accidentally came across, and just in the nick of time. After successfully implementing this system, he decided to share it with other people. He allowed over 1000 people to try his system, and as a result of doing this, these individuals were able to leave their day jobs and lead a new and prosperous life.
Fast Forward To 2013
Despite his success using the Tube Cash Codes System, and the success that his many students had the previous year, Corey has decided to once again help as many people as possible showing them how to earn money with this innovative marketing system. In fact, due to new discoveries that he has made, he has been able to improve his ability to make money, earning as much as $90,000 a day with his new and improved business model. This is the same system that he wants to share with his new students, a system that could lead to financial freedom for everyone that utilizes it this year.
If you are lucky enough to discover Corey Gates amazing Tube Cash Codes System, a system developed by a struggling construction worker just two years ago, you may be on your way to the financial freedom that you have always dreamed of, earning enough money to finally leave your job and experience life to its fullest.

Internet Marketing Tips That Have Your Back From Profit Academy
Build a website that is easy to understand and target your advertising to the normal, everyday customer. Ordinary people can create great businesses! You can build a successful business as long as you know the proper way to market it on the Internet.
When using social media for Internet marketing, don't overdo it. Loads of information posted several times a day is way too much and your consumer will quickly become dissatisfied with the frequency of your posts or tweets. While you need to update information about your service and products you are marketing, you do not need to do it several times a day.
Keep people focused on the marketing you want them to see by reducing unnecessary distractions. Many visitors will enter a website, click around on a few pages, and then leave aimlessly. Stop them from wandering by providing obvious paths you want them to follow. Connect every link to another page of content so that they are never distracted.
If you are attempting to grow your business's web presence by using a blog, you need to post regular updates to it. You should be posting new content no less than once a week if you want to attract and hang on to regular readers. However, be wary of posting multiple updates in the same day, as this can appear as spam to search engines.
The major goal when designing your website is to keep things simple. Limit the number of fonts to 3. The same applies to the primary color palette. If your site is too complicated or busy, people will be turned off. Keep all the important information on your homepage. If people have to click on too many links, they will probably decide to shop elsewhere. Focus on quality rather than quantity.
Try to limit the amount of text that you have on your website when you are promoting a product. Verbosity is something that can draw away potential customers, as very few people want to read a long description. Keep things short and to the point for the maximum chance at profit.
Make sure that you add as many anti-spam blocks as you need to in order to make sure that your site is free of spam. Having spam on your site will send a red flag to users and they will be less likely to visit your site in the future.
If you are selling a product to a certain age group, make sure that the website correctly reflects this. If you are trying to market a product to the elderly, keep things very conservative and business professional. When marketing to a younger age group, you can include animation, graphics and modernized Flash designs.
Always have some kind of special to encourage larger orders. For instance, offer savings of 10% on orders over $20 and 20% on orders over $100. Free or expedited shipping for orders of a certain size is always appreciated, or you could have a special such as buy one and get the second for half price.
Do not overdo it. Try to, at some point, be satisfied with the customer base you have. Do not stop working on optimization, but do not allow it to become your entire focus. You have readership that you need to satisfy, so you should always worry about quality of content over quantity of consumers.
Your prices need to be set in accord with the market, and only the market. If you attempt to go against the market and set your own prices, you're ultimately going to lose money. Setting prices too low means you will not make nearly enough money, and setting them too high means you might not make any money.
Keep the size of the pictures on your site small to reduce the time that it takes to load on a customer's computer. They will have the ability to increase the size of an object if it is too small. Your goal should be to reel the customer into your www.aniksingalprofitacademy.org site by any means necessary.
Desiring to find wealth through your online business is very normal, but keep your focus on the goals of your business. Striving for huge profits can help your motivation. Try the tips here and you will be on the road to Internet marketing success.
Google Sniper 3.0 Beneficial Tips To Successful Internet Marketing For Your Business
The thought of building a career around Internet marketing can be a very intimidating prospect, especially if you are new to it. There is a lot to learn and a lot to experience in order to make sure you are on the right path. This article will be what you need to achieve success.
In order to properly market your business, you must find out what your competitors are doing. One way to keep an eye on your competition is to frequently search and visit their businesses. The idea is not to copy what they are doing, but rather to see how these popular businesses operate and actually improve on what they're doing.
Get e-mail software for marketing purposes. This allows you to manage an e-mail list and allows you to automate some of those functions. E-mail software frees up time for you to concentrate on other George Brown business, and what's more, looks professional and makes subscribers trust that you are competent and know what you're doing.
When working with Internet marketing, do not forget to jump on the Facebook boat. It is not going to sink for a long time and you can attach a simple "visit us on Facebook" to any form of advertising, such as fliers, billboards, television or radio.
Make effective use of email in your business. Send customers newsletters that give them information that is so useful that they clamor for more. You need to make sure the customer understands you are giving them pertinent information, instead of spam. These emails will let your customers know that you appreciate their business.
Set a goal for your website. In most cases, it is to drive more business but you must have a goal on how to do that. As important as it is to set goals, it is just as, if not more important to come up with some kind of system to measure your success in reaching those goals.
If you can offer free samples, do so. Nothing tells a customer that you are credible like offering the chance to try your product for free. This tells a customer that you really do have confidence in your products, and you are willing to prove that they will work for them. Samples increase the number of repeat buyers.
To make the most money from your affiliate marketing programs you need to be willing to monitor them often and not be afraid to make changes. The sooner you recognize that a particular ad banner or entire program is not paying off for you, the sooner you can find a replacement that does.
When you are communicating with the customers on your site, try to be unique and interesting. If you come across as a robot with no personality, your customers will be drawn away. Developing a personality on your site, will help establish a stronger personal connection with your potential customers, yielding more sales.
No matter what you're changing about your business, whether it's a big change or a simple change of page layout, make sure you tell your customers about it. Keep them informed on everything that's happening with your business. This is easy to do with mass mailers, so there's no excuse not to do it.
Try marketing your online product using articles or stories instead of traditional ad copy. This draws readers into the advertisement before they even realize you are selling anything. By the time they reach your sales pitch, they'll already be interested and excited about what you have to say to them.
Give your website a proper title that makes the best use of that space. You want to make sure that when people read that title, they get a georgebrowngooglesniper3.org good idea of what they are going to find within the site. You don't want to have a misleading title or else that will end up leading your potential customers away from the site altogether.
In conclusion, you are somewhat hesitant by the idea of making a career out of Internet marketing simply due to the amount of research and planning that is involved in becoming successful. Hopefully, you are able to take the advice provided and apply it to your own business in a successful manner.
How To Improve Your Success In Internet Marketing With Click Auto Commissions
As it is for most people utilizing Internet marketing, the main goal is to earn more money. While you may like the products or services you offer, you want to make money from them. You can achieve your goal by applying the ideas in this article.
Try solo ads. Solo ads are ones that you provide to owners of e-mail newsletters. How does this help you? You are able to reach a targeted group that might be interested in what you have to offer. More than that, your appearance in the newsletter means the owner approves of you. So, the readers are more likely to respond favorably to your ads.
Never stop adding content to your Click Auto Commissions Steve Sanders website. Internet marketing is not a leave it and forget it type of advertising. You need to keep things fresh and keep eyes coming back to your page. Pages that are stagnant tend to fall off of search results so make sure to add things on a regular basis.
Get a professional email address for your business. An email address containing your company's name grants legitimacy and professionalism to your business. You do not want to turn away business with an unprofessional email such as email@example.com. Many websites offer professional business email addresses for a small fee.
Thanks to modern cloud computing, backing up email online is a simple and inexpensive process. Because email is such an important part of a profitable internet marketing effort, it should be thoroughly archived. There are many services that can do this cheaply and effectively. An online archive system that meets all of a webmaster's needs, can be a powerful safety net.
If you are going to use a video or a picture on your website, make sure you tag it properly. People using Google Images or a similar search engine will find your picture and end up on your website if they click on it. It works the same way with videos.
Provide proof that your product or service is the best, by having previous customers give testimonials or reviews. Add them to your website so that potential customers can see these testimonials. Once they see the positive reviews, this will help them in deciding which company to choose for any of their future needs.
Keeping your website updated is very important to customers. It shows the interest you have in your business. It also shows the interest you have in keeping your customers around. Showing customers the importance of retaining them helps your business in the long run because they will continue to use your business.
When creating marketing materials for your website or campaign, emphasize the words "easy" and "simple" in your product descriptions and sales copy. Customers may enjoy hunting for bargains online, but they want browsing, selecting, and ordering processes, to be quick and painless. Highlighting a speedy ordering feature makes it easier for a client to get what they want, without abandoning their purchase mid-checkout.
Publishing an e-zine and having it sent to users is a good way to remind them of all of the great items available on your site. Make sure that each issue of the e-zine gives users a good amount of new content so that they do not feel like they are reading the same information all of the time.
Instead of making a general video as an Internet marketing effort, try a video presentation that details exactly how your product or service will benefit your customers. Give viewers an idea of how they will benefit from purchasing from you. This kind of video will help you gain the trust of potential customers and may turn them into loyal customers.

If you go for the best, readers will sing your praises to all levels of the internet. If you choose badly, those same folks will drag your reputation into the mud, giving you worse-than-zero credibility.
An affiliate link should appear to be helpful to your visitors. Forcing a BUY ME link down anyone's throat is annoying, so ensure that you add affiliate content in a palatable way. Offer a selection of items to choose from, or post about a sale. Your readers will appreciate that you're trying to help them pick the best product or get the best price, and will forget that you're making money off their purchase.

However, as with most things in life, it takes time and patience to make a site that people are willing to visit and generate money for you.
