Importance of E-Presence in the Google Age
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Maria_Lisa]Maria Lisa

In the world that we are living in today, we want everything to be a click away and internet provides the platform to do just that. Many term an IT expert as the engineers of the modern era and why not it is due to them that we can buy, sell, learn, teach and do pretty much everything that comes to mind. Websites and web designing play a pivotal role in today's society. Long story cut short, a well managed website brings profits and recognition to any business.

In the digital age websites are the most effective tools to attract customers and the best way to utilize this tool is to have as much and as easily understandable information as possible information displayed on your websites. As the end user loves web pages that save their time, cost and energy.

To have a compact website that covers all aspects and gives the user all the information that he desires through a simple yet attractive interface the web designer needs to know what exactly the customer is looking for, one has to get into the shoes of the customer and understand his needs and preferences like his own. i.e the website developer or the designer or for that matter even the programmer should know exactly what information does the customer need, how to facilitate him/her and keeping things clear and simple without compromising on presentation.

Bottom line is website development must be precise, on the target and object oriented in order to get maximum output.

Coming to the technical side there there are various diverse technologies being used for website designing. Some of the major technologies that are being used most commonly are as follows:

Server-side scripting (e.g PHP and ASP)

Markup languages (e.g HTML, XHTML and XML)

Style sheet languages (e.g CSS and XSL)

Multimedia technologies (e.g Flash and Silverlight)

Database technologies (e.g MySQL, MSSQL)

Client-side scripting (e.g JavaScript and VBScript)

Furthermore websites may also be divided into static and dynamic depending on the utility of the website and the designing budget. A dynamic website usually comes along with a content management system using which you can easily update content sitting anywhere in the world if you have access to internet.

The benefits of having a website are countless in this era that would be remembered as the GOOGLE age for the years to come. Here are some very important advantages of website development and having an e-presence:

1- 24/7 access to customers/users whenever and wherever they want it.

2- Having an online presence means you have a global presence, meaning feedback from any part of the world is made possible opening new avenues to expand your business and getting recognition.

3- Comfortable way to do business, all you need is a laptop and an internet connection to be a businessman doing business worldwide sitting on your living room couch with all the comfort you need to work efficiently.

These and many other advantages make [http://www.webcreation.us/]website design ing & [http://www.webcreation.us/]website creation and development a hot cake in the market and make you realize that doing business is not so hard anymore.

There has been a incredible shift in the world around us.  From the Northeast hurricane, to many people stepping out on pure faith and starting new businesses, ending unhealthy relationships to even finally taking health seriously. We’re all being charged with “purging” something. In the midst of this though…doesn’t mean there are challenges or days when you simply want to “quit”.

YOU KNOW
::The client money isn’t coming in on time

::The husband just “ain’t acting right”

::The kids are a mess at school

::Your stress level is out of wack

::Your business is good…but it’s not “great”

::You seem to be working harder for the same result.

::You feel enslaved to your purpose.

As women we come as a package deal and with that means that often overwhelming feeling of wishing and wanting to just “quit” – to let it all go. To throw in the towel and just let the sh!% it the fan!

I know that feeling and I have to have a “come to Jesus”  meeting with myself. And get real.

It’s time someone offered you a dose of truth…and that is

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

Truth be told, women of color tiptoe around our issues in our lives and ultimately our businesses. We don’t invest in ourselves however we expect others to invest in us.

Do you? Do  you invest in yourself or do you quit at the thought of doing the work

QUIT at the thought of truly asking for assistance and support in growing your business or how women like Cameka Smith (founder of Forbes.com listed BOSS Network) has done by fostering a community of women entrepreneurs who network for good?

QUIT feeling like you can’t really work with other women because “they always want to take what’s mines”. And the hard work of learning to trust your own “GET IT GIRL!” so you can work with other women without the “crabs-in-the-barrel mentality” like LaShanda Henry (founder of Black Business Women Online) did with her girlfriends

QUIT at the thought of truly (and I mean truly) investing in quality mentorship and guidance and humbling yourself to end the thinking that you must do everything on your own or that perhaps Women of Color can’t produce high quality events and workshops that are impactful and profitable like thePOWER CIRCLE Conference & Expo happening Jan 2013.

What’s my point? I’ve been in a “Inner BITCH” release pilgrimage for some time involving releasing all the GUNK that was stuck in my belief system for too long.  My sister on this journey of complete liberation and I have been charged with not only calling ourselves out…but other women. Particularly women of color and Black women more specifically on how our emotional wellness is the TRUE source of abundance.

If you’re still reading I offer that I realize this post is making tons of assumptions about you – the reader – but perhaps it’s not. Perhaps somewhere inside of you, a-lot of this rings true. If not to this extreme, perhaps in your own self-sabotaging efforts to define “success” merely as the sum of your bank account or based on the number of episodes of  Donald Trump’s
The Apprentice” you’ve been able to copy-cat in your own business journey.

Whatever it is…there is a time to call it quits, but not on yourself…but on the nonsense that is causing many of us to live beneath the truth of our possibilities. The truth is that there is another more authentic way of living and creating and this video offers a bit of that truth.

Join me Friday November 9, 2012 here.

ATLANTA, GA — Katrina M. Harrell and Akilah S. Richards have a collective abundance of life and business anecdotes from their personal and professional experiences.  One common thread among their stories is the lack of harmony between sound business strategies and real emotional wellness.  

Frustrated with the trial-and-error approach to success among their own, Harrell and Richards now lead the movement that challenges black women business owners to face the harsh truths about promoting their brands versus building their businesses.  Their solution is 5-step “escape plan” from what they've dubbed "The inner B.I.T.C.H.".

On Thursday, November 9 at 9PM (EST) the two will host a free, live dialogue on Google+ Hangouts based around the focal points of their debut joint venture, How She Got Free: A Spiritual Business Manual for Women Who Lead Through Entrepreneurship.

The dialogue, which will also be live-streamed on YouTube, offers women a platform to discuss their biggest hurdles in business and life planning and income generating models.  Using the 5-Step Escape Plan, black women entrepreneurs can recognize their ineffective patterns, and align themselves with higher standards, sound structures, and effective systems in their professional and personal lives.

During the November 9th dialogue, the duo will tackle frequently dodged topics such as:

• Offering “bargain bin” pricing instead of charging what we’re worth

• How black women look to their white counterparts for marketing models that do not work with own potential markets

• The lack of application of basic business principles and the consequences therein

About the authors

Harrell and Richards are uniquely qualified Business and Life Strategies whose unique approaches to business building and lifestyle design have garnered them the unique approach to lifestyle management has garnered the attention of Black Enterprise Magazine, Essence Magazine, Real Simple Magazine, MSNBC’s Today Moms blog,  and various local and web-based publications.

Choosing the right business name is the good way to start your business. In a world where there are many variations of names, prose, and business services it is important to make sure you find a name that is unique to you and your business to brand as your own.

Perhaps your business is in its inception phase, meaning while in this stage, you are still working on finalizing some ideas. This is the process of visualizing, planning, and development of the type of business you want. It is also the time in which you are making decision on the direction you plan for the branding of your business. By the end of this phase, the business should have at least a tentative name. There is no rule that sets this into stone; however, as a business owner destined for more day-to-day decision making to come, you want to at least complete this portion of your process.

In this article, we will be performing a run through of some suggested ideas to use when choosing a name for your business. Choosing the right name from the start is important, because once the name goes public, it may be difficult to go back and change it later. We have provided some simple suggestions that have been tested and learned through experience.

There's no requirement that says you have to choose a name that seems common or even make sense to others. Take a chance. Select some random business names for testing and trial runs. Although were going random, we also want to make sure, the business name signifies the nature of your work or the specific line of business you are catering to. Names that give no clear reference as to the type of business or nature of the work are often overlooked. Unidentifiable business names take time and research to figure the nature of the business. Be considerate and do the work for them by making the meaning of the business obvious within the name. For example, Joe Smith, LLC, tells us nothing about the business or what it is they do and risk potential customers not taking the time to find out. Same with promoting your business online, not only should the name be original, it should provide some indication as to the nature of the business. Do choose a clever name. People like thoughts that trigger ingenuity.
