How to Increase your Sales Revenue by Raising your Product’s Price
Many people are very scared of raising their prices. In fact, so scared that they try everything they can do to save their declining business and doing every possible kind of promotion and modification to their sales and business procedures, closing in the end without even trying to raise their prices even a little bit.
Raising your prices can be the most efficient way to increase your total earnings in a matter of seconds and you can even split-test it! You can show some of your visitors a page with your normal price and some others your increased price, looking to find how the new increase will affect your conversions.

Why you don’t get enough YouTube views on your videos and how to fix it
So you’ve created your channel, you’ve created lots of videos and still you don’t have any traffic at all. Sure you’ve told everyone you know (even that girl you had a crush on in high school) but still you’re just working more on promotion and bringing in one visitor at a time, rather than spending your time creating your next video.
Why am I not getting any views on YouTube?
Let’s analyze all the ways you can go wrong and what you can do about it. Being involved with video is not an easy task. Many people are even afraid to show themselves on a video. Let’s see what might have gone wrong with yours and let’s try to fix it!
Why YouTube is changing and why you should care
YouTube is a powerhouse when it comes to video. Everyone who’s spending more than five minutes per day surfing the internet, is going to visit YouTube. Why? It’s simple! Thousands of people upload videos to YouTube every day! And supply eventually creates demand.
Looking at the infographic below (found on Techcrunch) you will be amazed with the the 48 Hours of Video uploaded / Minute figure but what’s more important is that there are 3 Billion views per day!
Create your own online survey with WordPress and Gravity Forms
In the previous post we saw how fast and easy we can create a free online survey with Google Docs for our market research purposes. However, there’s one thing I didn’t tell you. Even the paid ways to create surveys lack one big important thing: the ability to automatically register the people who finish the survey to a newsletter management service. Many support the manual import of email addresses, but I am not sure that the deliverability of those services is reliable; since if you can import emails manually, what’s stopping you from adding emails that you don’t have permission to send a mail to in the first place? So I’m sticking with Aweber for the third year now and I am very pleased with it.

Buffer: The Social Media Management Service to Rule Them All
Sharing on social media is not a simple thing to do. First of all, you have to have something meaningful to share; something that your audience will love to check out and will benefit from it. Getting valuable content and pushing it to your social media account is not easy, at least if you want to do it consistently.
My own problem is that I can’t schedule my posts, because every morning I read my RSS feeds I can find more than 10 posts worth mentioning, but I can’t share them all at once, because everyone will hate me! At the same time, I can’t add them to a note and keep remembering every now and then to open it and share each link or story one by one. That’s too unproductive! Read more…

How to lower your AdWords Campaign Keywords’ average Cost Per Click rate
AdWords is such a sophisticated platform, that in order to fully understand it and be able to use it effectively, you’ll not only have to read up about it, but also have a good hands-on experience. It’s that complicated because there are numerous targeting options and because they have many system rules for pricing and ranking the ads.
Google takes many factors into consideration and combines them into one score, the Quality Score: each keyword we target gets one. We eventually want most of our main keywords to reach a Quality Score of 10 in order for us to have great exposure. At the same time, we will be able to get more quality visitors on our website at the least possible expense.
