SiteManPro Features

Today, I want to introduce you to a great Product and soon to be Project Management software named SiteManPro or sometimes spelled as SiteMan Pro.

First, this piece of software can be easily installed on your own domain. The SiteMan Pro software is composed of several sections or departments grouped into different tabs on the menu. So lets take a look at each tab:

The Home Tab

When you first log in, you’ll automatically see the Dashboard Section. The Dashboard will show general statistics about your business in general. For example, it will show you how much you have made in sales, total customers and suppliers, your expenses, your hypertracker links and keyword tracked.

From the main menu, you can navigate to the different areas. Under the Marketing tab, you’ll find the Hyper Tracker, Surveys and Market Research sections.

The Marketing Tab

The Hyper Tracker menu will allow you to cloak important links to your products or affiliate links as well as track the search engine keywords that are bringing you customers from your ppc or paper click ads. It will also show you the referrer addresses so that you can track where your traffic is coming from. This is a very powerful feature that will quickly show you if your marketing efforts are effective and as you expected. Otherwise, you can analyze the data and make the necessary changes to your marketing strategy.

Under the Surveys menu, you’ll find a tool to create unlimited surveys. Again, this is an important feature you can use to collect feedback from your customers regarding your services, products, and customer support and know instantly which areas of your business need improvement.

Under the Market Research menu, you can add unlimited feeds you want to ’spy’ on. You can use this feature to keep track of the latest news and trends in your competition.

The People Tab

The Contractors & Suppliers’ section will list and keep track of your current contractors and suppliers as well as to manage the projects activity and payments for their services rendered to you when you are outsourcing services for example.

The Contacts section is self explanatory. In this area you’ll gather your contact list.

The Finance Tab

In Accounts section is where you will setup your type of payments, for example, Paypal, manual entries, free products, etc. This way you can track where the funds are coming from.

The Expenses section is where you would manage your expenses and transaction account details, and more.

The Income section is where you would manage your income. Her you will see in details all products and services sold.

The Shop Tab

This is one of the most exiting areas of the software. Here is where you setup your digital product pages and controls their downloads. You can brand each product page with your own html if you which to brand them with your own company logos or product representation.

The Products section is where you manage your products. Here is where you setup each product, download links or pages, asign pricing, etc.

The Kunaki section will allow you to setup your products to be sold in a tangible form through Kunaki service. Very easy to setup and you will be able to track your Kunaki sales instantly.

The Customers’ section will give you in detail the order history for each customer. One of the great features of SiteManPro is that it doesn’t matter if your customers comes back many months later to purchase another product because a new account won’t be needed to be created for him. All his/her products purchased will appear at one place.

There are many other features that are being implemented into SiteMan Pro continuously. This is a product that no one doing business online should be without.

SiteGround.com is The Worst Hosting Company Ever

When choosing a hosting service, you must research that company thoroughly. I had a terrible experience with SiteGround.com. They claim to be the “preferred choice for hosting small business websites and to have “high quality service” with “fast and reliable servers”.  All these are far from the truth.

Not too long ago, I decided to give them a try. What a nightmare it was. I had a Joomla site which at the time, being new, didn’t have any subscribers yet; but I got constantly SQL errors. Every time I was editing an article and click save, I got that familiar “can’t connect to SQL server” error message.

After contacting them through their only way of communication: a very cumbersome Help Desk system, they told me that I must upgrade to a dedicated server! Come on! A site without any member needing a dedicated server? That’s ridiculous! I was also getting ‘time out’ error messages when navigating the site. Again, they blamed my internet connection.

To prove them they were wrong, I went ahead and contacted my internet provider (by the way, I have high speed internet connection) and they tested the system and it was fine. They even visited my office to be sure that there were nothing wrong with my connection. I even go a new modem! But still this terrible hosting company: SiteGround.com kept blaming me for their issues and continue telling me I must upgrade to a dedicated server.

In addition to their faulty system and service, their Help Desk system is so cumbersome that to create a ticket you always have to go through a bunch of prompts and testing scripts before you can write a word to tell them what you need. Ridiculous!

After many, many month of wasted time, money, and effort, I decided to move my joomla website to a reliable and efficient hosting service. I contacted SiteGround.com to cancel and to request a refund of my pre-paid one and a half years I had left. Guess what? They refused to issue a refund because supposedly they have a 30 day money back waranty and my 30 days were over. First, their policy only mentiones that the 30 money back is for a full refund but nowhere in their policy they address what happens when you cancel your account and you have pre-paid 2 years in advance.  They still kept my money regardless of their misleading policy, poor quality service and slooooow servers. So be aware they will still your money! They don’t care about customer satisfaction. They even told me… and I quote: “take your business elsewhere” and ignored my emails!

After I moved my website to a reliable and efficient hosting service, and before erasing the site at SiteGround.com, I opened both sites side by side to compare speed and efficiency. Well, it proved how terrible SiteGround.com’s servers are. I would click to open a document in the site at SiteGround.com and them click the same article hosted at the new hosting company, edit it, close it…. and my article at SiteGround.com was still trying to load!!  Now we are taking about a terrible server!

So, my friends and all who are reading this article, be careful where you host your websites. You might end up wasting valuable time and considerable amount of money. Do you homework and research the company first and find reliable testimonials, not the ones they place in their website. Of course, those will always be positive.

All You Need To Know About Blog Hosts

Apart from the chat rooms, instant messengers and electronic mails created for communication and dialogue beyond turf are the emerging innovations that help man build opportunities for interaction.  The need for a personalized and human face aspect of building online communities is slowly changing the technological landscape of the Internet.

Blogs / “weblogs” or blogging are the newest gift of Internet technology to people all over the world. These are updated posts, crop up entries or personalized life snippets, of mundane or bizarre in nature. For most, a “blog” is a personal, unedited, and authentic journal meant to be shared in an online community. Blog site is a place where bloggers can publish anything; his thoughts, feelings, photos, special events, experiences, comments on issues and so on. It is more of an online diary with videos, links, documents, newsletters and opinions on just about any topics you are interested.

Blogs are made to welcome the insights and opinions of all and therefore, should not be written to sound intimidating and too formal. This kind of blog is a sure way to put off the readers. In the basics of blogging, conversational tone would be more appropriate to reach the desired audience. Blogging is all about individuals reaching out to other individuals.

Having a blog has its own set of advantages:

1. Freedom of Expression. If you want people to hear you out and give their own opinion, this is the best way to create a line of communication;

2. Networking is at its best. Having a blog is a good platform for exchanging genuine ideas from consumers to you as marketer of a certain product. Sound opinion and point of view is better than just showing the price quote;

3. Excellent advertising platform. Blogging is a new way to advertise products, a refreshing change from the traditional advertising outlets and it is cost-effective.

4. Gauging public opinion on products and services. The key is nice and catchy titles with new ideas presented in your content. This is an assurance of quick and repeated responses from your readers.  Blogs is an excellent spot for the exchange of ideas between the seller and the consumer. Good for measuring public opinion regarding services and products, even political and business matters alike.

5. Useful tool for internal communication. This will help your company to build a knowledge-based community of employees. Also good for harnessing employee relations and identifying human resource issues in advance.

6. Other benefits like search engine optimization (SEO) will help your blogs to be seen often by as many people as you wish. This is very good exposure for your products and services.

Many blog hosting services are available on the Internet. But the basic question is which one of the services will be the best to start off your business blog program? Business people are usually clueless to recent technological innovations which would help them maximize their marketing potentials. For these beginners, it is best to study first the services offered by blog hosts. An ineffective business blogging program may damage marketing opportunities instead of enriching them.

A company may decide to do the following depending on its capacity and needs:

• Host their own blog service,
• Pay someone else to host the service, or
• Setup a “blog aggregator page” and ask the employees to select their blog hosting services individually. There are paid and free services available for individuals.

For business blogs, they are required to have the latest blogging features; if not, this will prevent them from maximizing their marketing, public relations and SEO potentials.

Keep in mind that blogs should have the following basic essentials:

COMMENTS.  Welcoming comments provide opportunity for dialogue. In business blogs, they are a good customer feedback mechanism. This helps develop better customer relations based from loyalty and trust. Blogging is an innovative way to converse with your customers.

TRACKBACK. This helps in maximizing company and product exposure. Through this service, consumers can get back to you for more posts and updates without the difficulty of locating you. If your blog is popular in a specific online community chances are links going back to your blog site are everywhere online, other blog sites or even websites.

CATEGORIES AND TAGS. These both help in classifying blog searches for ease of navigation and on site search. Categories act as libraries because it classifies posts by subject matter such as business, distance learning, e-commerce, online auctions, etc. Tags, help in the classification, especially in the blog search engine Technorati. Possible customers and new clients locate blogs about certain topics of interest by just clicking the tags.

RSS FEED. Really Simple Syndication is the feed from your blog that is sent out over the internet, and collected through the various newsreaders and aggregators.

If your company is to establish a business blogging program, considerable options should be made available by the hosting companies shortlisted for the services. Free blog hosting services are popular but they are much appropriate for individual online journals. Paid blog hosting services offer unlimited packages best for your company’s needs. You may want to suggest checking out some blogs that use the host first, read and examine their layout and design. Another important thing to consider is a reliable technical support the host has.

After, choosing the blog host, a team should be ready to plan the design and structure of the blog: The team should:

•  create a style that meets the needs of the audience;
•  establish an open, credible tone;
• schedule weekly updating of blog - ideally, a few times a week;
•  include web links of other website and blogs;
•  blog post should be in the “first person;”
•  focus on the business blog objective; and,
• maintain an honest, engaging conversational quality.

Remember, whatever the look, style and content found on your blog is a reflection of you and your company.

Blogging And Internet Marketing

There are 5 Major Reasons Why Blogging is One of the Best Internet Marketing Tool

Blogging is a concept that started in late 90s.  It used to be a way to comment an existing webpage, an opportunity for visitors and readers to react or voice out one’s opinion on the said page.  What started as a single-sentence commentary has evolved into pages of personal take on just about anything and everything under the sun.  As it continues to move forward, online advertising has tapped into the blog’s potential.  Here are 5 reasons why you should use blogging as an Internet marketing tool.

1. Blogging Is Simple

The simplest way to get your piece on the net is through blogging.  No skills are necessary… an average adult can read and type, or at least click a mouse.  It’s like having a virtual piece of paper and you just write your ideas, experiences, new products, and hope that the truth behind your articles comes out and entice your reader to also try your product.  If you have a PC and an Internet connection (who doesn’t?) then you can blog and advertise.

2. Blogging Is Authentic

In this day and age where advertising saturate our lives, we question the credibility of promoters’ claims.  However, in blogs, real people share their real-life experiences, unscathed by paid advertising.  Reading blogs about first-hand product use is like talking to people about their first-hand experience.  You definitely want to buy a tried and tested product.

3. Blogging Is Free

Because blogging is yet to be proven as a mainstream online advertising media, most sites see it as something to augment current marketing tools and thus offer it for free.   Any opportunity for free webtime is definitely a bonus especially to businesses that are starting up.  Needless to say, paid blog pages can generate more income for your seriously growing business.

4. Blogging Builds Credibility

As you get more and more into writing your experiences on a particular product or industry, your readers come to realize that they can depend on your posts for their own information needs.  As such, you become an expert on it; as a consequence, more readers visit your site and more bloggers link to your blogs.  As companies and professional organizations notice the growth of your readership base, they may soon get in touch with you for advertising on your blog page, or make you an affiliate, which pays for every referral generated from your blog site.

5. Blogging Builds Your Market

Unless you are a Hollywood star, chances are, only your Mom reads your posts.  Mom has a lot of friends, so she lets her friends know how interesting your blog site is.  But you need not depend on Mom to increase your readership base.

Look into the following ways to build your market through blogging:

-By Using Your E-mail.  Today, blogging is overcoming the e-mail’s popularity in quickly and effectively reaching and expanding a market.  In this age of speed and quick access, logging in and downloading e-mail is simply taking longer than clicking into a blog site.  Let them explore your site by using a short e-mail message as teaser to your blog site.  If your e-mail is on an entirely different subject, use your e-mail signature to give a link to the site.

-By using subscription.  An easy way to get your readers e-mail is to give them an opportunity to subscribe to your blogsite.  Keep some exclusive information for your subscribers to entice readers to subscribe and give their e-mail address.  Just be responsible in using their e-mail address, as the last thing you want is a comment on your blog that you are a spammer.

-By understanding your readers.  Conduct a simple survey for your readers to understand their profile and advertising preferences.  Ask consumers to give you feedback on a post, an ad link, or a trial that you shared.  In this way, it is like interviewing your readers without the commitment and intrusion of a face-to-face interview.

-By joining a blog network. A network of blogs maybe a collection of blog sites that share the same industry, interest, readership base, payment mode, etc.  Consumers find credibility and convenience in clicking one link to several real bloggers about a single subject.  Clearly, more bloggers are better than one.

-By using RSS. RSS is the fastest growing technology on the Internet today.  As such, having RSS feeds to your blog is definitely another means of generating awareness for your readership base.  Having a variety of feeds can add interest to your blog site.

Give your business a boost by effectively using blogging as an Internet marketing tool.
