New Orleans, Louisiana – December 16, 2012 – With constant changes in how Internet marketing works, many business owners are left clueless with the amount of learning they need to go through just to get their websites to rank. For those who are tech savvy and have years of experience on how online marketing works, the learning curve isn’t too great. But for local business owners who seek to drive more customers to their brick and mortar store using their own website, the curve can be much daunting; and this is where an expert advertising agency in New Orleanswill play a crucial role.

Building a website that will represent a local business is not a luxury these days; it’s a complete necessity. Consumers are consistently searching the Internet not just for the latest items on Amazon or the latest news on CNN.com. According my many studies in the United States, more consumers are going online to search for local services and stores within their area. When a potential customer goes to Google or Bing and searches a product or service that they need and they find a business that is providing what they are looking for, one of the first things they consider is if the business is local to them.

A store or a local shop that has a stable online presence can expect more inquiries and more customers when they leverage the influence of the Internet and social media. They need to get their voice heard and their brand recognized by their customers. In order to do that, they need an engaging website that can sell their products or services and they need to make that website visible. Easier said than done; because with the amount of technical know-how needed to market and make website optimized for the search engines, an entrepreneur can spend countless hours trying to figure how it works and still get nowhere.

Often, inexperienced business owners try to create their own website and do their own SEO. But because this is not their main expertise, many fail dejectedly by over doing their sales message on their website design causing more harm than good. Check out this report about why a website’s design in vital in converting visitors to consumers:

“As more local consumers turn to search engines and IYPs to locate good businesses in their area, it’s surprising how many local businesses have not updated their websites or, worse still, don’t have a website at all!” says an article in SearchEngineLand.com titled ‘Simplicity Is Key To Converting Local Consumers To Customers’

“The majority of local SEO activities focus on reaching new, potential customers via Google Places, local directories, social media etc. But not enough consideration is given to what happens when you get a local consumer to your website. Conversion Rate Optimization (aka CRO) is an essential aspect of good SEO but it tends to be the bigger guys – with bigger budgets – who invest in it and reap the rewards. It’s common for local business owners to obsess too much about outward promotion and search rankings.”

In this report, entrepreneurs who have limited knowledge and experience on how Internet marketing and website design works hand in hand with targeted traffic and sales conversion can easily mix it up and end up with nothing for their efforts. SEO and website design that will convert is a science and an art itself; and for one to succeed, it is sensible to get professional help.

STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA/December 20, 2012 / Marketwire/ -- Viratech Corp. (OTC: VIRA), the first open source biotech research social network platform, announced today an acquisition merger with Cancer.im, Inc., in exchange for $6.2 million in Viratech restricted common stock.

Cancer.im, Inc. owns and operates http://cancer.im, a social network resource site for cancer patients, survivors, advocates, and volunteers. Cancer.im harnesses social collaboration utilities to develop what Viratech believes will become the first experience-based search engine powered by social collaboration. The site is scheduled to go from beta testing to full use on February 15, 2013. To learn more about the vision and potential of Cancer.im, see the explanatory video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dz1tHRb3wvU&feature=youtu.be or visit the site at http://cancer.im

“I am excited about this merger because every cancer survivor has a unique story to tell. The hindsight and experiences of those who have already “been there” are invaluable to patients currently battling the disease. Members of the Cancer.im network can find survivors who have lived through a specific type and stage of cancer. They can learn from these survivors what to expect with the benefit of lowering anxiety, giving them a higher sense of control and helping them craft their own customized strategy to help them battle their disease, based on their own values, beliefs and medical resources, thus giving the cancer patient a higher confidence in the treatment regimen they are going through, “states Dr. Kevin Buckman, CEO of Viratech.

Cancer.im’s mission is to empower every cancer patient, regardless of their ability to pay, with the power to research their disease and to find, organize, and manage their own cancer support network. The goal of these support networks is to assist the patient in conserving needed energy by reducing the burden associated with their own daily trials and tribulations. Cancer.im will strive to convert this saved energy into a higher level of patient activity and a stronger determination to fight their disease.

Unlike other social networks, Cancer.im was designed by a team that is dedicated to specifically serve the unique needs of those currently struggling with the disease. This new network combines databases of medical community knowledge, repositories of wisdom from cancer survivors, systems for helping cancer patients organize their records and various facets of their treatment, and tools that allow patients and their supporters to work together effectively. In short, Cancer.im provides everything a cancer patient, friend, or family member is looking for to help in the fight against the disease, all in one online location and easy-to-use format.

“We can lower the incidence of morbidity—regardless of treatment— as substantiated by a number of medical studies , by raising the quality of life of the cancer patient including a 2009 study in the Journal of Clinical Oncology called "Quality of life supersedes the classic prognosticators for long-term survival in locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer” . To do all this we have fifteen best-practice modules featured on the Cancer.im. web site. Each one is organized to provide specific resources to help cancer patients, families, and health providers,” states Dr. Buckman. In addition, he adds, “Our tools enable permission controlled social networking groups, and can help convert friends and family from a state of being helpless to being helpful. They can actually increase the cancer patient’s quality of life. Simultaneously we can empower the cancer patient with the ability to tap the experiences of other cancer survivors. Additionally, they can create their own customized strategy to fight their own cancer, based on their own values, beliefs, and resources.”

Through its experience-based search engine and next-generation technology, Cancer.im’s goal is to become the primary resource on the web for people affected by cancer, for the purpose of making a difference in their own lives and the lives of others.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (NEWSWIRE) December 21, 2012 –  Boston, MA

Recently introduced fat loss supplement Leptiburn is rapidly growing in terms of its popularity throughout the world. Many users claim that this product can provide fat loss benefits that compare to none other in the present market. However, it is always advisable to cross check the physiological background of any such product before deciding to invest time and money on it. Leptiburnreview.com, an independently operated review website, has just published the findings of their detailed research indicating that the secret behind the success of this program is centered on a fat burning hormone named Leptin. This hormone not only enhances the rate of metabolism, but also controls the functioning of many other fat loss hormones.

Leptiburnreview.com informs that rigorous dieting and workout regimens are most likely to fail because of ever decreasing Leptin levels within the body. Studies suggest that the level of this important hormone can reduce by 50% within a week of starting a diet plan, resulting in a dramatic reduction, in fat burning.  This happens because the primary function of Leptin is to protect the human body against starvation. The efficiency of fat burning programs or products is also influenced by Leptin sensitivity. In order to receive maximum results, it is important that the Leptin receptors within the body are extremely sensitive. Leptiburn program consists of few easy steps to satisfy both these conditions in order to generate unmatched results.

Leptiburnreview.com also reveals that many of the Leptiburn ingredients are proven to have a positive impact on production and sensitivity of Leptin. Irvingia Gabonensis, Oleanolic Acid, Panax Notoginseng, Modifilan®, and Green Tea are the natural ingredients that play a significant role behind the excellent results achieved so far by this program. Talking about this weight loss program, a senior researcher from Leptiburnreview.com said, "Unlike any other program known to us, Leptiburn takes a scientifically proven approach to increase Leptin level and sensitivity. We feel that this system can work for anyone looking to lose fat with minimum efforts".

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

December 27^th 2012 – After the success of Cars, Pixar Studios is gearing up for their new movie ‘Planes’, slated for a cinema release worldwide on August 9^th 2013. Contrary to a previous statement, Pixar will be bringing this animated film to theaters near you soon, rather than releasing it straight to DVD.

Planes is a spinoff of the very popular Disney Pixar ‘Cars’ series and was first mentioned in the series ‘Mater's Tall Tales’. At the end of the 'Air Mater' episode the characters joked that they should make a whole movie about planes, and that is what gave birth to the idea behind this new movie. Voice stars for Planes includes Jon Cryer of ‘Two and a Half Men’ fame as the main character “Dusty Crophopper”, Stacy Keach will keep his role from the short animated film as Skipper and Brad Garrett from ‘Everybody Loves Raymond’ has done the voice over for Chug.

Planes is expected to be another theatrical and merchandising hit, and the fact that one Facebook fan page has over 6700 fans is a proof of that. Although Pixar isn't producing the film, John Lasseter will be one of the producers. In one of is interviews, he stated “We had a lot of fun exploring the world of Cars and filming it; and after making two movies with the characters, we wanted to see where our imaginations would take us if we made a film that took the concept and made it sky bound. We expanded the world of Cars, and with Planes we got to explore many new fun-filled situations and also got the perfect opportunity to introduce some fantastic new characters to the series. The team at DisneyToon Studios has done such an amazing job creating a heartfelt story filled with great comedy, adventure, and emotion. We are sure that our viewers will enjoy this new tale of fun, courage and friendship as they experience a new kind of animated adventure Cars style”.

It was announced on August 20, 2011 at the D23 Expo that Jon Cryer will be the voice of the main protagonist Dusty, though he is rumored to be dropped and a new actor for voice over is yet to be announced. James Seymour Brett is set to write the film's score. For more information on the movie and to keep up with all new news until the release, join the fan page at http://www.facebook.com/PlanesTheMovieFanpage.

(NEW ORLEANS– December 27, 2012) – Hotels in New Orleans near the Superdome is the place to be for football fans in 2013 with the Allstate Sugar Bowl and Super Bowl XLVII playing out in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. College football rivals the Louisville Cardinals and Florida Gators will go head to head in the Sugar Bowl on January 2, 2013, just one day after revelers celebrate New Year’s Eve in New Orleans.

Hotels in New Orleans near the Superdome are primed and ready for the influx of fans, and local online travel portal NewOrleans.com offers these recommendations to visitors for the best hotels in the area – from a deluxe hotel experience just steps away from the Superdome to budget-friendly stays for Sugar Bowl 2013.

* For luxury and location, there is no better hotel than the new Hyatt Regency New Orleans. Re-opened in 2011 after a stunning top-to-bottom renovation, Hyatt Regency sits in the shadow of the Mercedes-Benz Superdome and offers guests the ultimate fan experience with sports bar/restaurant Vitascope Hall and John Besh’s new Louisiana seafood restaurant, Borgne. 

* The Roosevelt New Orleans, one of New Orleans’ classic luxury hotels, is just a short walk away from the Superdome. The hotel is steeped in the city’s history – from the Sazerac Bar to the famous Blue Room – and offers visitors a taste of New Orleans style, comfort and tradition.

* An oasis away from the guts and glory of the gridiron, Le Pavillon is the picture of Old World elegance and sits only five blocks away from the Superdome on Poydras St. The hotel is famous for its “lagniappe” (a little something extra) details, including a late-night PB&J and hot chocolate snack service in the hotel’s grand lobby.

* For modern, boutique-style hotels, look no further than the new Hotel Modern on Lee Circle and the chic W New Orleans on Poydras St. The Modern is home to New Orleans’ hottest new craft cocktail emporium, Bellocq.

* If you have caviar taste but a po-boy budget, several hotels near the Superdome offer great value for game-time. Some of the best budget hotels within walking distance of the Superdome include the Holiday Inn Superdome, Queen & Crescent Hotel, St. James Hotel and Lafayette Hotel.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Newswire.net - December 28, 2012 - In the never ending search for a simple cure to overweight and obesity, one suspect that has been gaining an increasingly negative profile is sugar, and more specifically fructose. Dr Robert Lustig of UCSF has been the main champion of this campaign, with his 90 minute video entitled Sugar: The Bitter Truth getting viewed over 3 million times in just over three years on YouTube!

Now Dr Lustig has penned a book called ''Fat Chance - Beating the Odds against Sugar, Processed Food, Obesity, and Disease'' which has just been released in Hardback and is about to be launched on the kindle in the coming days for just over $15!

One of the most compelling parts of Dr. Robert Lustig's campaign against sugar is his credentials and his explanations of complex biochemistry coupled with a wealth of scientific research. The research and his interpretations of it have been carried on numerous media outlets including 60 Minutes.

But, although Dr. Lustig's message seems compelling to lay people, it seems that his scientific colleagues aren't so supportive of his views. In fact at a Sugar Symposium organised by the American Society for Nutrition at the Experimental Biology meeting held this year, Dr Lustig and several other key researchers were given the opportunity to present their views on the science in what was deemed the "Sugar Showdown - Science Responds to Fructophobia" (link also contains videos of all lectures). The most notable quote from this meeting was from John White, Ph.D., of White Technical Research who stated that "You don't often see this at a meeting..... (a) groundswell of researchers pushing back against inflammatory remarks and overstatements.”

The most telling part of this Sugar Showdown was the Question and Answer section where several scientists took Dr Lustig to task regarding overstating the research and his heavy reliance on animals models (especially when discussing sugar/fructose and addiction) which have been shown to be unreliable when representing human responses.

Cardiologist James Rippe, M.D" was quoted as saying after the event "People called him on it today...by going to the media directly, he said, Dr. Lustig didn't have to have the same standards of proof that scientists usually must have."

This is also worrying for many other 'campaigners' who also champion sugar and fructose as being the source of many modern disease epidemics. Australian lawyer and author David Gillespie has become a mini-celebrity on the back of his best-selling books entitled 'Sweet Poison - Why Sugar is Making Us Fat' and 'Big Fat Lies - How the diet industry is making you sick, fat & poor', and holds similar views to Robert Lustig in a number of areas. Although, he too has come under fire from numerous qualified health professionals for misrepresenting and cherry-picking research, most noticeably via the website David Gillespies Big Fat Lies.

So, on the surface, it would seem that Dr Robert Lustig's position isn't supported by the bulk of the scientific literature nor by his researching colleagues. Although many claim that pioneers in many areas who were deemed ahead of their time, weren't accepted when they went against 'conventional wisdom'!

Time will tell whether Dr Lustig's theories pass the litmus test in the area of book sales and acceptance by the general public.

Book Review of Fat Chance - Beating the Odds Against Sugar, Processed Food, Obesity, and Disease to follow.

Newswire.net - December 28, 2012 - Baltimore, MD  – The world is mourning the passing of Norman Schwarzkopf, the great 4-star General who commanded Operation Desert Storm and drove Iraqi forces from Kuwait in 1991.Many business leaders have been inspired by his strong leadership philosophy. Recently Forbes.com published some of his best know quotes on leadership, including:

“You learn far more from negative leadership than positive leadership. Because you learn how not to do it.”

“The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it.”

“True courage is being afraid, and going ahead and doing your job anyhow, that’s what courage is.”

“When placed in command, take charge.”

“Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without strategy.”

General Schwarzkopf’s leadership wisdom can be applied in any profession which relies on strong leadership skills, according to Sandy Cormack, an independent organizational development consultant. “There are many ways to be a leader, but great leadership relies on a wide range of skills and abilities – such as visioning, mental analysis, building relationships, and decisiveness.”  He has published a new video presentation illustrating how brain science principles can be applied towards developing leadership skills in an individual.

“Everyone has a unique leadership style that’s highly influenced by their mental preferences,” says Cormack.  “Understanding your preferences - and the preferences of those you manage - can make you a better leader, and help you understand your people in a new and different way.”  The video presentation, entitled “The Leader’s Dilemma,” outlines how leaders of all kinds can acquire this understanding and apply it in real-world situations.

The video presentation describes the four thinking styles at play in every leader:  analytical, conceptual, structural and social. Although everyone uses all four thinking styles, people prefer to use some more than others.  This illustrates a clear left brain-right brain approach to leadership. The way a person thinks, the way an individual’s brain works strongly influences the kind of leader that a person is. Further, it influences the kind of leader a person prefers to follow.

Developing leaders is a high priority in many corporations.  Success depends not only on how leaders learn to leverage their strengths, but how well they overcome their inherent leadership weaknesses. Cormack’s video presentation outlines how a comprehensive brain science approach to leadership development can develop more ‘complete’ leaders who more readily ‘step outside’ their preferences and give their employees what they need to be successful.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE(Newswire.net -- December 30, 2012)Mobileappdirect located in Calgary Canada has launched a whole new powerful mobile marketing platform that will keep small businesses and professionals not only on the cutting edge of technology, but enable them to compete with big companies and their peer competitors. Mobile marketing applications and platforms are creating a revolution in how business interacts with their customers and clients. Mobileappdirect  can create custom made mobile apps for all local businesses, religious organizations, performing artists, professionals such as Doctors, Lawyers, Realtors, and Restaurants.

According to the The New York Times "Mobile marketing is the most powerful advertising medium ever invented"

What’s been driving this revolution is the tremendous growth in Smart Phone sales that run Android and the iPhone OS. A new market report from Transparency Market Research published this year, reported that Smartphone sales in 2011 hit 468.9 million units, a 66.7% increase over 2010 sales of 282 million units, and sales are expected to reach 1.05 billion in 2015. Smartphone sales in the fourth quarter of 2011 beat the combined sales from the full year of 2008, the report notes.

Amazingly, the Pew Internet and American Life Project published in 2011 found that one third of American adults or 35% own Smartphone’s. The Pew Internet Project's May survey found that 83% of U.S. adults have a cell phone of some kind, and that 42% of them own a Smartphone. That translates into 35% of all adults. This study also found that Smartphone owners are financially well-off and well-educated, with 59% of adults living in a household earning income of $75,000 or more, and 48% of those with a college degree. One of the questions Pew asked the respondents is what device they normally use to access the internet, and 25% of Smartphone owners said that they mostly go online using their phone, rather than with a computer.

That translates into lots of affluent people on the go, who use their Smartphone’s to help them with the management of their daily life, and why it’s now critically important for small businesses, and professionals to take the time and make the effort to build a presence on the web, and engage Smartphone users with consistent mobile marketing applications.

Mobileappdirect provides a risk free way to get started, and for a limited time are offering a free e-book on using mobile applications for business.

The Mobileappdirect application allows users to develop viral marketing campaigns, send instant text messages, couponing, brand awareness, create  mobile ordering platforms, and different levels of support.

Here is what two customers have said about using Mobileppdirect: “Our mobile apps have had a huge impact on how we connect with our members and collect payments”

Denny Slozberg (Lake Residence Association)

“We got 230 downloads our first month promoting the app. The loyalty program and food ordering platform has increased  sales 17% and climbing! Thanks Steve! ” – Glen Liem (Pizza on the fly)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (Newswire.net -- December 31, 2012) Alberta, Canada -- App developer, Mobile App Direct, has created a small business marketing platform which capitalises on the power of viral and mobile marketing in a way that, for the first time in history, allows a home-operated or other small company to easily compete with even the most established of brand names in any market. The organisation develops fully customised and user-customisable apps for business owners in such a way as to afford them complete on-going control over their product, providing an astonishing arsenal of tools to reach out to clients.

Last year, the New York Times stated that “mobile marketing is the most powerful media ever invented” and many well-known viral marketing campaigns reflect this fact. Mobile App Direct leverages the potential created by a combination of smartphones and social media in a way which is extremely affordable and user-friendly, even to someone who considers themselves a technophobe.

The director of Mobile App Direct, Stephen Iervella, stated that “we identified the gap in the market some time ago and have since been working tirelessly to ensure that that the customizability is as easy and user-friendly as it is affordable”. Iervella went on to say that “since making our products available to the masses, we’ve already helped small business owners significantly increase their income and, I’m proud to say, have ensured that they’ve seen a considerable return on their investment. This product is the first of its kind and represents a revolution in the accessibility of highly effective mobile marketing for small businesses”.

A Revolution in App Marketing for Businesses

The statistics for the apparently unstoppable upsurge in the mobile marketing sector are newsworthy in their own right. Some of the highlights include the following:

• While marketing e-mails are routinely labelled as junk, 97% of text messaging apps are read within 5 minutes of receipt
• Since the incarnation of the app market, over 81 billion apps have been downloaded
• Just under half (46.1%) of consumers now own a smartphone
• The percentage of e-commerce dollars spent on smartphone transaction currently sits at 13% of ecommerce as a total, up by 11% from just two years ago in 2010
• Over Thanksgiving and Black Friday, 24% of consumers browsed a retailer’s websites using a smartphone
• Around 71% of mobile web traffic was generated through apps
• Online marketplace, eBay, has capitalised on the power of mobile apps, selling just over $500 million dollars’ worth of goods last year to its 6 million-strong app customer base
• Approximately 69% of people browsing for a business phone up that same business when they find it on a smartphone
• Approximately 51% of people looking for a business on their mobile phone visited the location shortly afterwards

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (Newswire.net – December 30, 2012) Dr. Paul Tse  is Calgary’s most experienced Doctor of  Traditional Chinese Medicine (T.C.M) It is one of the oldest forms of medicine in the world. Originated in China over 5000 years ago, T.C.M is getting recognized around the world today as an effective method in preventing and treating diseases.

“T.C.M involves observing the physical appearance to assess the health condition of a person. Most diseases can be detected long before clinical symptoms appear. For example, dark under eye circles indicate a weak chi and blood circulation of the kidney and liver meridians. If left untreated this condition may in time result in back pain, low sex drive, impotence, tinnitus (ringing noise in ears), degeneration of hip, knees, bones, joints and vertebrae discs, menopausal problems, chronic fatigue syndrome, hearing loss,

vision deterioration, allergies, cancer or many other chronic diseases due to these two meridians that are related to the back, eyes, ears, sex organs, bone, tendon, hormones, vitality, immune system etc. By treating the blood and chi appropriately, T.C.M. can prevent or even reverse diseases because we, as T.C.M. doctors, recognize the importance of the chi and blood; if they are weak, blocked or affected by pathological factors, diseases can arise.

Take headaches for example. From the patient's pain we are able to find out the origin of the problem. Pain at the forehead, temples, top and back of the head may indicate the chi at the following meridians are blocked: large intestine and stomach, gall bladder, liver, urinary bladder respectively. Pain is not the only indication of disease, the tongue, voice, body odor and pulse may reveal internal problems.”

“I have discovered that Acupuncture combine with Hypnosis or Mind Body Therapy, is very effective in dealing with compulsive behaviours, eating disorders, weight problems, emotional problems (anxiety, grief, depression, phobias, stress, resentment, nervousness, low self-esteem, excessive worrying and anger, etc) and many more dis-ease’s”

Here's just a few of the testimonials from patients of the peking herbs and acupuncute center:

"I was sitting at his doorstep feeling like I wanted to commit suicide – I was so depressed. After one treatment I felt like a more sane normal human being and the day was looking so much brighter – it only took about 15 minutes. The best part is I feel calm."

– Sharon Stone*, Acting Consultant

"I Am So Excited About The Remarkable Improvements In My Health

I have only been coming less than 2 months and my fatigue is greatly lessened and I feel better physically than I have in over 15 years. With continued treatments I expect a full recovery. I am so excited about the remarkable improvements in my health."

Increase The Volume of Your Business By Using The Power of Press Releases

December 31, 2012: When a business is started, the entrepreneur should think how best should he take his business forward. If the business person does an in-depth study, he will realize that relegation of traditional methods of marketing has already started happening, thanks to the concept of online marketing. But, online marketing may not be possible unless businesses have websites of their own. But, just by having a website, a business may not be able to achieve the desired success. Though Internet marketing has the potential to reach hundreds of thousands of customers, this potential can be achieved only if the website of the business is visited by a large number of people. The general prescription given by people is that businesses have to adopt SEO strategies and the Google PPC concept. www.simplepressrelease.com opines that those who suggest SEO strategies and the PPC concept are oblivious of the disadvantages of these two ideas. While SEO strategies may take many months to produce tangible results, PPC may milk the businesses of whatever small revenues they earn. So, www.simplepressrelease.com has come out with a strategy that they call as a great strategy. The strategy they suggest is businesses should make use of the power of press releases. Businesses may wonder what is a press release.

A press release is a news item about anything and in this instance, about the business or their product or service. www.simplepressrelease.com says that if businesses manage to come out with well-written press releases about their companies or their products, they are certain to attract the attention of a large number of people, more particularly, their potential clients. This is because a news item always has the potential to grab the immediate attention of people. So, when these businesses issue such well-written press releases, they are certain to be read by potential customers. This will increase the traffic to their websites that may ultimately result in increased sales. Another great advantage of press releases, according to www.simplepressrelease.com, is that they give accelerated benefits unlike SEO strategies. Their cost is almost nil when compared to PPC concept.

www.simplepressrelease.com points out that there are other benefits also from press releases. There may be more back-links that may also contribute to the increase in traffic. Well-written press releases may certainly dominate the Google News. Press agencies from all over the world may also readily pick them up. So, the popularity of these businesses will soar, thus increasing the traffic to their websites. Even highly reputed and big companies adopt the strategy of issuing press releases for growing in their business.

Thus, www.simplepressrelease.com has come out with such a detailed explanation for the question "what is a press release"? www,simplepressrelease.com thus explains how press releases can increase traffic to websites of businesses. They emphatically affirm that this strategy will increase the volume of sales of these businesses phenomenally.

Script A Success Story in Your Business With The Help of Press Releases With This New Training Course SIMPLE PRESS RELEASE

December 31, 2012: Businesses may find it difficult to get the desired traffic to their websites. But, unless they have a good traffic to their sites, they can not dream of having good sales. A common solution suggested for increasing the traffic is to adopt SEO strategies or opt for Google's PPC concept. But, SEO strategies may take time for bringing results and the PPC concept may prove to be quite expensive. SEO strategies and the PPC concept may not get sustainable results also. So, www.simplepressrelease.com says that they have come out with a foolproof strategy that can bring thousands of visitors to any website, be it a business website or an affiliate website. According to them, this strategy will not take as much time as other SEO strategies and is not expensive at all.

According to www.simplepressrelease.com, this strategy will get consistent traffic. They say that this strategy is not new and it existed even at the time of publication of the first newspaper. Submitting a simple press release is the strategy that is being suggested by www.simplepressrelease.com. They say that this strategy will increase the traffic, will build back-links that go well even with the algorithms of Google and other popular search engines and take businesses to dominating positions in their respective industries.

www.simplepressrelease.com further adds that search engines and especially Google loves well-written press releases or news. They point out to the fact that many news items rank much higher than other organic results also. They emphatically say that a well-written press release can make an extraordinary, positive impact on the search engine results and appear much above many other results. This is because press releases effectively motivate people to go through them and this aspect is missing in SEO strategies.

www.simplepressrelease.com also points out how a well written but simple press release dominates the Google News and how almost all the news agencies throughout the world will vie with each other to grab the news item. This will ultimately increase the traffic to the website of the business and get them good sales. According to www.simplepressrelease.com, even large corporations follow the same strategy to increase their traffic and their sales.
