So you might have caught my post yesterday where I announced that I am officially launching the Internet Marketing Upstart Virtual Program on Thursday, 6 May 2010, 10:00 am GMT+2

With all the good news in South Africa this last week and more specifically the introduction of PayPal into South Africa, I thought I would dig up a recent article entitled “101 Creative Ways to Make Money Online“ , rehash it a little bit and make it available to you to get your creative juices following, so for everyone on my list, I have already email you a copy and you should get it shortly.

When it comes to online marketing, and specifically PPC advertising and Media placements, the single most important calculation you can perform is your daily, weekly and monthly return on investment or ROI calculation.

Of course your daily weekly and monthly profit and loss (P&L) report is just as important, but what your ROI calculation allows you to do is assess in terms of a percentage what your actual return is.

Almost all houses all over the world have computers, and every single one of them is connected to the World Wide Web. The Internet holds such influence and power over our modern day living that it makes for a great marketing tool for any product or industry. For businesses that are thinking about the possibility of making use of the Web’s influence, it is important to know how to choose the right internet marketing company.

Much has been written and discussed on the newly updated FTC Guidelines which directly affects online marketers, yet despite all the talk, many of you are still confused, so this post will provide the clarity you seek.

Firstly I must point out that the FTC guidelines have not been updated for over 30 years. This update in policy is both necessary and logical, and the fact that the FTC has now decided to focus heavily on the online direct marketing channel provides further confirmation of just how much the online market has grown and matured.

The Internet has reshaped the way we live. There is very little of our lives that have not been affected as a result of the invention of the Internet. Communication is better than it’s ever been and the world is suddenly much smaller. The Internet is becoming a great way to do business and Internet marketing has become a huge method of providing Internet related businesses with exposure to customers.
