Default Tricks ? Cost-free Internet Promotion Methods

The world wide internet has definitely put small businesses up there with the big guns when it comes to being able to compete. It is not unusual for that little guys to outrank big companies within the major search engines and drive 1000s of daily visitors to their sites while the major enterprises struggle to obtain a handful. What makes this example even more amazing is that reaching the very best echelons of the search engines can be accomplished without having spending a dime.

There are many free ways that you can use to create a web presence ? and at the same time ? a growing quantity of visitors to your business website.

Marketing your web business through writing and submitting articles to the online article databases is one method that is being increasingly used by smaller businesses. This strategy makes it easy to compete, as anyone who can write and complete simple web forms makes it big online. There are literally a large number of article databases online at the minute. Each one you submit to adds an additional ?one way? backlink aimed at your website, through your article resource box.

Any internet marketer really worth his salt knows which backlinks from other websites ? when they are authority sites, even better ? can give any site an excellent boost up the search engine rank. Eventually, if you get enough links back to your site, you are guaranteed a high ranking on google.

Another way to create backlinks to your site is through social bookmarking portals like Delicious as well as Magnolia. Creating bookmarks on these sites to your own web pages will give you more valuable backlinks. As an added reward, posting on the interpersonal bookmark sites will raise the potential of being seen as an expert in your own field, or market.

The great thing about using both of these methods of internet marketing is that you are building your instant web traffic numbers but more importantly your general web presence and long term prospects for top search engine rankings. When your articles and webpages ? on the social book mark sites ? are out there on the web then you can make sure they are being picked up by other websites and internet users. So it can mean an increasing stream of website visitors and inbound links.

Keep in mind that the quality of your site and your own articles will determine just how much traffic you get. The important thing is actually though, to actually get started and to start building your business presence online.

You have just as much chance in this level playing field as the biggest names in company.

Zuck?s Advice To Startups: Explore Before You Commit, Listen, Build Something Fundamental, Don?t Copy

Facebook didn't guess that users wanted to share photos. It learned it, Mark Zuckerberg explained in his talk at Y Combinator Startup School. "We really listened to what our users wanted, both qualitatively listening to the words they say, and quantitatively looking at behavior that they take." Users didn't necessarily say they wanted photos, but were uploading new profile pics every day.

World T20: Sri Lankan women snatch victory from Windies

Galle (Sri Lanka), Sep 29

West Indies women lost the momentum in a dramatic penultimate over as Sri Lanka scraped through to a narrow five run win by the Duckworth Lewis method in the rain-affected Group B match of the World Twenty20 Championship.

Chasing a modest D/L target of 48 runs in eight overs, the West Indies appeared on course to victory before imploding in a match twice interrupted by rain Friday at Galle International Stadium, reports CMC.

Tremayne Smartt smashed a boundary off the first ball and collected nine runs in the opening over as the Caribbean side seized control.

Stafanie Taylor was run out for three in the first ball of the second over, a minor setback then as Deandra Dottin opened her account with a boundary to keep the game in the West Indies' control.

Despite the loss of two quick wickets in the third over, the West Indies continued to attack, taking 10 runs off the fourth over.

A total of four batters went via the run out route but West Indies were always ahead until a match defining moment when they needed 12 off 12 with six wickets.

A nerve racking six ball spell, in which Juliana Nero and Shemaine Campbelle were stumped and Shanel Daley was run out, swung the match around and put the Sri Lankans in the driver?s seat.

Earlier, the West Indies had put Sri Lanka in to bat in a match reduced to 17-overs a side after a wet outfield had delayed the start by an hour.

Sri Lanka made a good start with 21 off three overs, but the loss of their openers in consecutive overs slowed them down.

The rains came again and Sri Lanka's innings was halted at 50 for 3 after 10.3 overs, with the West Indies getting a revised D/L target of 48.

West Indies' loss meant that all four teams in the group are now tied on points.

D-Day for al-Qaida in Somalia? Last bastion attacked

By NBC News wire services

MOGADISHU, Somalia --?Troops launched an amphibious assault before dawn Friday on the al-Qaida militant group al-Shabab's last stronghold in Somalia.

Other African Union forces were traveling overland to link up with the joint Kenyan-Somali force in the port city of Kismayo.

The commander of the U.N-backed African Union troops, Lt. Gen. Andrew Gutti, said the aim was to "liberate the people of Kismayo to enable them to lead their lives in peace, stability and security."

Col. Cyrus Oguna, the Kenyan military's top spokesman, said the attack met minimal resistance, but al-Shabab denied that the city had fallen and said fighting was taking place.

Oguna told The Associated Press that al-Shabab, which formally merged with al-Qaida in February, had incurred "heavy losses" but that Kenyan forces have not yet had any injuries or deaths.

"We came from the beach side and we're moving towards the main city. Our surveillance aircraft are monitoring every event taking place on the ground," he told Reuters.

"For now, we're not everywhere. We've taken a large part of it without resistance, I don't see anything major happening," he said.

Born in the USA, but now among Somalia's Islamist terrorists

Residents in Kismayo, a city of about 193,000 people, contacted by The Associated Press said that Kenyan troops had taken control of the port, but not the whole city.

"Al-Shabab fighters are on the streets and heading toward the front line in speeding cars. Their radio is still on the air and reporting the war," resident Mohamed Haji told The Associated Press. Haji said that helicopters were hitting targets in the town in southeastern Somalia.

At an international one-day summit Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron said the world would "pay a price" if it fails to help Somalia overcome terrorism, piracy and starvation. ITV's Lee Comley reports.?

Another resident, Ismail Suglow, told Reuters that he could hear shelling from the ships and that the rebels were responding with anti-aircraft guns.

"We saw seven ships early in the morning and now their firing looks like lightning and thunder. Al-Shabab have gone towards the beach. The ships poured many AU troops on the beach," he added.

On Thursday, residents said planes had dropped leaflets on Kismayo warning civilians to evacuate within 24 hours, Reuters reported.?More than 10,000 residents fled Kismayo in the last several weeks.

Resident Faduma Abdulle said Friday that she is now leaving too.

She said al-Shabab made an announcement on its radio station Friday to trick residents into moving toward the invading troops.

"They told residents through their radio to loot a Kenyan ship that washed up on the coast, but instead the residents who rushed there were attacked by helicopters," she said. "Some of them have died but I don't know how many. The situation is tense and many are fleeing. It's a dangerous situation."

A U.S. military spokesman, Lt. Cdr. Dave Hecht, said the U.S. Africa Command, known as AFRICOM, is closely monitoring the situation but that "we are not participating in Kenya's military activities in the region."

Militants: Taking city not 'a piece of cake'
Al-Shabab said it would not give up Kismayu easily.

"Going into Kismayo is not a piece of cake. We are still fighting them on the beach where they landed," Sheik Abdiasis Abu Musab, al-Shabab's spokesman for military operations, told Reuters on Friday. "For us, this is just the beginning, our troops are spread everywhere."

Oguna said the assault is part of a four-prong attack involving Kenyan forces currently in villages outside Kismayo.

The amphibious assault landed between 10:30 p.m. Thursday and 2 a.m. Friday local time (3:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Thursday ET)?, he said. Some of the troops had night-vision goggles, he said.

Somali Olympic chief killed in Mogadishu suicide blast

African Union troops pushed al-Shabab out of Mogadishu in August 2011, ending four years of control of the capital by the fighters.

The Ugandan and Burundian troops that make up the bulk of the African Union force in Mogadishu have slowly been taking control of towns outside of Mogadishu.

The expanding control by AU troops sent al-Shabab fighters fleeing south toward Kismayo, north to other regions of Somalia and across the Gulf of Aden to Yemen, according to American and African Union officials.

Al-Shabab still holds sway across many small, poor villages of southern Somalia. The loss of Kismayo would be significant.

The militants taxed goods coming into its port. Al-Shabab lost its major source of financing last year when it was pushed out of Bakara market in Mogadishu, where it also charged taxes.

The march toward Kismayo by the Kenyan forces has been nearly a year in the making.

Kenyan troops entered Somalia last October after a string of kidnappings inside neighboring Kenya, including of Westerners in and around the beach resort town of Lamu, which is also seeing the construction of a new port and could one day be final point of a new oil pipeline from South Sudan.

Kenyan forces were bogged down by rain and poor roads for months but have making slow and steady progress toward Kismayo in recent weeks.

The Associated Press and Reuters contributed to this report.
