I pray for you

I was just listening to the radio and came across this song. It started out like all the other songs out there you know country background talking about who knows what relationship issues or relations with religion. Anyway I was just about to turn off the song and then it took a turn. What was boring me all of a sudden became a truly humorous song. Now nobody ever wants anyone to have anything bad like this to ever happen to someone for real but the idea of praying for someone but for all the wrong reasons just really makes you sit there and enjoy what can only be a truly special song by Jaron and The Long Road to Love. Enjoy and let us know below what you pray for.

Free Games Site Gets Facelift

World of Free Games, home to a large variety of free games downloads since 2009, recently made several site improvements in preparation for the addition of over 100 new games.  The new games are slated to be added by the end of the year and will include puzzle, word, action games and more. The site upgrades are designed to improve the user experience, organize the current games, and enhance navigation throughout the site prior to the new content additions.

One of the new features on the site is the inclusion of detailed descriptions on each page.  Users benefit by being able to quickly get a snapshot of what each page is about.  New game descriptions, enlarged images, and the addition of even more images also help the user gain important information about the free games downloads and get a clear picture about the variety on the site.

To enhance the user experience in finding the exact type of game they are looking for, improvements were also made to site navigation. Links throughout the site now make navigating from page to page easier.  Several other navigation options are currently in the testing phase as well. 

In a further effort to make the site easier to use and to make certain that users had a way to get answers and voice comments, a Help page was created and changes were made to the Contact Us page.  Furthermore, revisions were made to the About Us page to more adequately feature the security and privacy commitment of the site through the TRUSTe Certification program.

Perhaps one of the best new features of the site is the addition of a new page for Kids Games.  With so many cool games for kids currently on the site, this is a strategic move to make users aware of their existence and set the stage for the new games to come later this year.

The Unbelievable Power of Social Media

It’s a big deal lately. It’s a really big deal. If you have not jumped onto the jet that is rocketing some businesses to uncharted success, you should consider getting on board. Make your own Facebook page and keep it updated. Build your social network on this site and on your own Twitter account. These two highly interactive sites are great places to begin if you need to make a social media start. There are more high profile sites out there, but these two have the greatest overall impact. If you’re still skeptical, perhaps these three success stories will inspire you to become part of the new social wave.

An unknown business in Utah has come from behind to arrive at more than a million dollars from sales inside of a year. Orabrush is the company, and if you have not heard of them, lots of others have, thanks to social networking. Their principal product was created to eliminate bad breath. It took the combination of an elderly inventor and a young college student to make this brand a success. The older gentleman came up with the product, and the BYU student orchestrated a catchy video, loaded it up on YouTube and marketed it using only Facebook and Twitter. And that’s it. This invention made a million with online sales in less than 12 months simply because 20 million people viewed the video on YouTube, 250,000 pushed the “like it” button on Facebook, and the orders began streaming in for the specialized toothbrush.

SteelMaster Buildings is not the first type of business you immediately think of in connection with social activity, but they have found – and filled – a slot on Facebook for prefab steel construction. They created a Facebook page for their company and started to test ideas they felt would help market their structures. Just what is it that makes Facebook work? It is the network you create and keep. Having satisfied customers submit pictures – and have the chance to win a cash prize – of the way they use these steel buildings was the idea that worked best. This company figured out how to match the need with success.

Combining Facebook and Twitter to get yourself known is a sure fire way to increase visibility to potential clients. An equine dentist – i.e. a dentist for horses – from Florida found this combination was the best way to lengthen his reach past his immediate locale. Geoff Tucker made his own Facebook page and began making connections and friends. He also created a personal Twitter account and began writing a personal blog. The mixture of these three ensured an online presence and allowed others to get to know him as the man behind the job title, not just as some equine dentist. This visibility online got him greater press on both TV and radio. He was thrilled to be featured on HorseGirl.tv and Horse Talk Radio. So the social sites led to other avenues of success. He is gratified by the 100 leads he has netted from his online accounts and with the 10-15 happy clients who have found him as the end result of networking.

Are you convinced? Jump on, because there is still room for your company to find success by making the most of social media. Try it – you’re bound to be pleased with the results.

How to Avoid Survey Sites That Scam You

If you’re out there in the Internet world, and you’re looking to make some cash, you’re going to find that there are many ways to make money.  You can make money by doing data entry work, secret shopping, and more.  I’ve been making some side cash online for quite some time now with paid surveys.  While there is some money to be paid, you will not become rich, trust me on this one!

Since I’ve been working with them for about four years now, I wanted to give you some pointers on how you can pick out scams, as well as avoid them.  You’re going to find that it isn’t as hard as you think!  As long as you use your head, you’re going to find that you can save yourself a lot of time, and effort.

#1 Do your homework: Let’s say that you find a company.  Instead of signing up right away, do a quick Google search on the company.  This will help you out a lot!  Sure, there’s going to be negativity for just about every company out there, but generally, you can get a good vibe on what’s bad, as well as what is good.

#2 Trust your gut: Look around the site, and see what it is all about.  You will want to get the following questions answered, when you plan on signing up.

  • How are you going to get paid?  Is it via points, or cash?
  • Can you do referrals?  If you can, this is where the money is at.
  • How long have you been around?  When did you get established?

#3 Check with the BBB: The Better Business Bureau (BBB.org) is a great place to check for businesses reputations.  You will find that if you research a company, and they have a great grade, you should be rest assured that the company is going to be legit.

#4 Look for payment proof: When you join a research panel, you will want to be assured that you’re going to be paid.  Let’s say that you want to join a company called “XYZ Surveys.”  What you will want to do is go to Google Images, and look for payment proof.  If people post check images, etc, you can be assured that they probably pay.

Finding a scam isn’t that hard, and if you trust your gut and follow the four steps above, you’re going to find that you can find a lot of companies that will rip you off.  As long as you do your homework and search online, you’re going to find that you can make a decent amount of money on the side.

There is always a time you see a video that makes you wonder….

There is always that moment that a video presents itself that puts you in a state of wonderment. This happened after seeing this video put out by tungle.me as they related the importance of various timing in ones day. As you watch this video it is chilling to think how much time is wasted and how much we leave aspirations behind due to the fact that we just don’t pursue our dreams. I want you to take a closer look at this video and send it off to others that you hope can gain the extraordinary meaning behind this well put together film.
