                                                     Research Confirms that Sex

And or images of Scantily clad woman does not sell your product, or entice any one to purchase any more of your product. While we all know that porn may sell to those who desire looking at porn, that in itself does not bring new or attract customers. It is also proven to alienate a broader range of customers and including but not limited to the female gender.

As a more accepted society (we accept more of what was certainly hidden) than in the 60's 70's and 80' is now more socially acceptable it is still not viewed as a consumer magnet or customer grabber.

On another note is that what we want to send as the message to our younger generation when we portray this Holy than thou image? I certainly think it's something you have to think about.



Well ponder this, Do you think this is helping you? Sex maybe like the thing to try or even sexy images and pictures of scantily clad woman. I think your selling yourself short, looking cheap and very very unprofessional.

But who am I to judge?

Good Luck

Does a web hosting / design company really make a difference?   Part 2

Are you looking for a website design company or hosting company? Well if you are why would you look at a company that claims to be and all in one out of the box solution? You know the one, they promise social media marketing, SEO rankings, Domain registration, Web Hosting Design building and everything and anything you can think of. There are some very large ones out there that do a good job.

Well before you go with one of these so called all in one's do your research,

Domain registration is important to make sure you won the domain you register and you have control.
Website design is crucial and key to your business don't just give that project to anyone. Their are a million companies that promise the world, but can they give you deliverables?

Will they work with you closely on your project to bring your ideas to life? Real websites are not cheap. You know the saying you get what you pay for. Make sure you have a rock solid contract before you hand over any money. If not you may be taking a long unhappy journey.

Ask all the right questions, and if you are not sure what those are reach out and find someone who can help. Such things as shared hosting, what will be your server requirements for your site? How much disk space will you need. How much Bandwidth is allocated to your site. Will you require a shopping cart if you are selling products and or services over the web. What programming language will you site be created in? How much will maintenance of the site cost if you will not be doing that yourself? (Updating content, Products). Will you need a merchant account and a gateway account for the order processing. Who will do the integration. How much will these cost add upto per month or per transaction.

There is a lot to be learned about simple web site hosting and creation so please do your research, look into how long a company has or claims to be in the business. Don't just take the testimonials they post as proof of their work, ask to speak to some of their clients. check out their website and review and investigate their work, it could save you a lot of money and headaches.

Best of Luck
P.S. very few have made millions with a website, but in today's world everyone needs a website even if it's only for your potential customers to find you!

Does Sex really help sell your product?

I often wonder about this. In today's crazy world A lot of marketing companies and products often use images of woman scantily clad to try and sell or appeal to the masses. What makes these even more crazy is they state they are a family oriented company/product. So then who are they targeting?

 The Dad of the family, The mom (well if you are selling woman's lingerie maybe) The children?
So how does this benefit your brand? I for one think it makes it cheap, unattractive, and something i wouldn't to use or purchase.

What ever happened to selling your product based on the product and it's merits? It's a solid product, maybe because we have great customer service. How about we offer a product no one else offers? Quality,

This world, our society has gotten so far away from our core beliefs that companies feel a need to appeal to the deviant side of people in order to sell their product.

Just my thoughts of the day.
