Web video is taking the internet by storm. Isn’t it your turn to show the world

what you can do with your video camera? Just remember that when you’re making a

web video, you need to treat it like a major motion picture. Although, you will

most likely not have to go to the extremes that Hollywood professionals do, there

are some traits that you must pick up from them. The most important out of all

these traits is designing and planning your web video.

Making a web video that is powerful, entertaining and informative does not just

“happen.” It takes time to plan out what you want to say, how you want to say it

and the overall look that you want your web video to have. The post effective web

videos are those that are composed and shot with care. The more time that you put

into your web video, the better it will look.

It is understood that many people who want to make powerful web videos simply

don’t have the time to sit around and map out every detail of the video. While

doing so guarantees that you will have an aesthetically pleasing video, there is

a simpler way to organize your web video. Before you ever begin to film, you

must first have a shooting, or concept, script. Whether you literally write down

dialogue that you want to say, or if you just need to organize your thoughts,

always write a shooting script for a web video. If you are making a video for a

product that you are selling, than you will want to explain the product clearly,

and also demonstrate the product. This is one of the greatest aspects of web

video, individuals are actually able to see the product in action before

purchasing it.

With your shooting script, you will also want to lay out where you want to film

the video and how many people are needed. You may find that you can do this all

yourself, however, usually the more people that you have helping you the easier

the project will be, and the better the ending result will also be. While many

people do not understand how to compose a professional shot, it is very easy to

learn. When you are looking through your camera, what you see in the screen is

what will be recorded. Take a moment before you begin filming to make sure that

everything in the “frame” is what you want the viewer to see.

Make all of the surrounding objects neat, or simply take them away. If you’re

going for a unique look to your web video, make sure that all of the elements

that you want to be seen are visible within the frame. A great way to make sure

that you have a beautiful shot every time is to follow a simple rule, one that

even Hollywood filmmakers follow, and that is the Rule of Thirds.

When you’re filming in the Rule of Thirds, imagine that the screen is split into

a basic tic-tac-toe formation. Always make sure that the person you are filming

has their head placed on either the right or left side of the screen. Instead of

filming a person that is precisely in the middle of the frame, move them over to

the right or left section of the screen pattern. This will provide the viewer

with a sense of balance, and will give your web video a professional appearance.

You can see the Rule of Thirds in action within almost every web video and even

in Hollywood movies.

Next time you watch an interview, or a character in a film is giving a monologue,

90% of the time you will notice that they will be positioned either on the right

or left side of the screen, following the Rule of Thirds. Also, the most

important part of filming a web video is to make a story out of the video. This

doesn’t mean that there needs to be dramatics involved, although this can make

for an interesting addition to your video, it simply means that you will want to

create a sense of flow to the information that is being given out.

I hope this helps in your quest for making the next internet blockbuster or even

your next home video. The same tips given above apply to all of your videos. Use

these rules and you are guaranteed a better end result.

I have talked a lot about spyware programs that will attack your computer and slow it down in past articles. This week i would like to give you a list of the Top 4 Free Anti-Spyware programs available on the internet. Of course everyone has a different opinion when it comes to which program is the best, but most people confer that these four are at the top of their game.

The first program is also the most popular anti-spyware on the market and you may already be familiar with it. Ad-aware from Lavasoft.

Ad-Aware- is an anti-spyware program from Lavasoft that detects and removes software on a user’s computer that is determined to be spyware or adware. It also detects dialers, trojans, malware, data-mining, aggressive advertising, parasites, browser hijackers, and tracking components.

The makers of Ad-Aware, Lavasoft, also offer a paid version of Ad-Aware. The main difference between the free version and the paid version is that the paid version offers real time scanning.

The newest version of Ad-Aware, while not as good as its successor (Ad-Aware 6.0 SE), is still a great program and worth installing.

A safe place to download this program from is:

www.majorgeeks.com/download506.html

The next program, Arovax Antispyware, isn’t nearly as popular with the every day user as Ad-Aware, but I just blame that on their marketing team. Arovax ia a very powerful antispyware tool.

Arovax Antispyware -With its most recent update, Arovax AntiSpyware has become even more reliable and effective. Arovax AntiSpyware Spyware Database is completely updated to discover malicious software and to distinguish it from the legal software. All found malicious software are now automatically checked for removing, and those items which will be marked as unknown can be sent to the Arovax lab for the further research and analysis.

One of the most important features of the new update is the implemented regular Signature database update. Arovax AntiSpyware is now able to completely secure your system from the most latest viruses, trojans, spyware, etc.

You can download Arovax here:

www.arovaxantispyware.com

Another great program to consider is SpyBot Search And Destroy. This one is a little more powerful and maybe not as user friendly as the others, but it does a fantastic job of finding things the others don’t.

SpyBot Search & Destroy- Spybot can fix problems with tracking cookies, system internals (Registry), Winsock LSPs, ActiveX objects, browser hijackers and BHOs, and can to some extent protect a user’s privacy by deleting usage tracks. Spybot also includes an “Immunize” feature to block the installation of spyware before it occurs. Another tool included in Spybot is a file shredder, for the secure deletion of files.

A Tea-Timer module can be optionally enabled, which provides a level of active, real-time protection from undesirable registry changes and such; it is unusual for such a feature to be offered as part of a free anti-spyware program.

Spybot has won numerous awards, including the PC World Best Buy and World Class 2003 Awards, the PC Magazine Editors Choice and PC User Top Buy #1

Download SpyBot Search & Destroy by visiting:

www.safer-networking.org

The next on the list falls under that “last but not least” category. Spyware Blaster stands out from the crowd because of the real-time protection it offers you.

Here is what Spyware Blaster does:

Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted software.

Block spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox.

Restrict the actions of potentially unwanted sites in Internet Explorer.

Provides the aforementioned protection without running a process in the background

Spyware Blaster stands out from the crowd of antispyware solutions . It protects your system from spyware and it does this without having a process running in the background. That feature is huge, that means that you can actively protect your system from spyware and not take a performance loss for it.

Spyware Blaster is freeware that provides spyware protection without any consequence. It is a absolute must for anyone wanting to protect themselves from spyware. No performance loss plus Free; How can you possibly go wrong with that.

You can download this neat little program here:

www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

As with any anti-virus or anti-spyware software that you use, please be careful when deleting files. I always advise quarantining the files first to make sure that a critical system file is not deleted. If, after quarantining the files you don’t notice any problems with your operating system or any other programs, then it should be safe to delete the quarantined files. Use these programs at your own risk, I can not be held responsible if your computer has issues after using the programs listed. If you follow the directions from the software developers and use good judgement while using the programs, you shouldn’t have any serious problems.

If your computer is causing you major frustration because of viruses, spyware, pop-ups, slow load times etc, and you just can’t seem to get it straightened out, give me a call at 423-613-5590 or visit me online at www.CompRevive.com

I think it is time to start delving a little deeper into affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing can be much more involved then just joining a program and adding banners to your site.

There are several reasons that you may choose to join affiliate programs. Most people join them because they give you the opportunity to make cash. That’s a good reason! There are two ways that affiliate programs can work for you and you can take advantage of both sides.

Most people associate affiliate programs through the concept of joining them to sell somebody else’s products and making a cut off of the sale. You can implement these on your site as well, but they are not necessarily going to drive traffic to your site. Once you have traffic at your site, they are a great way of supplementing your income. To use affiliate programs in a way that allows you to make money off of your own products, you need to start your own program.

If you promote a product by yourself, you are limiting your sales to only your site and the people who stop by. If you develop your own affiliate program your products can be sold in a myriad of places including newsletters and other people’s websites. They join your program, place links on their pages and do all of the selling for you. All you do is pay them a commission, which is usually handled through the service that you start the program through.

There are several other good reasons to start affiliate programs to promote your product. One of the best reasons is that you can penetrate niches that you may not be aware of or don’t have time to focus on. Because a variety of different people are looking at your products, they will place your links and banners on websites that you may never even know existed.

The fact of the matter is most people do not have the slightest idea how to start an affiliate program. This process requires a little planning and you should begin planning your affiliate program before you even launch your site or product. Your best bet is to begin by approaching people who may be interested in selling your products.

Offer them a generous commission on the product, somewhere around 50% is a good idea to entice people. Also, the higher priced your product is, the more willing they will be to sell it.

The next step is to create a professional sales page for the product. This is a page that should be easy for your affiliates to promote and should also have a good conversion ratio of prospects to buyers. Also, you need to provide your affiliates with tools the proper tools, such as banners and photos that they can use to promote the product on their website. Make sure the graphics you use are professionally created. No one wants ugly banners on their website.

There are a few people you will want to consider when you are looking for your first few affiliates including:

1.Friends and family who have their own website. Your family, so they will feel obligated.

2.Anyone who sells products or has a website in your niche.

3.People who you think would not even consider it. If you approach these people correctly, you will be shocked at who will sell your products for you.

If you are looking to start an affiliate program, but you don’t have a clue of where to begin, there are several services that you can use. Clickbank.com and PayDotCom.com are two of the biggest and most trusted. The main downside to these services is that they can take a percentage of the profits, but they issue checks to your affiliates for you and make the whole process rather simple. In essence, it may be worth it just so you can gain the traffic you need and not have to worry about the hassle of paying people and tracking their sales. Another upside is that they can help you find affiliates, which also saves you time. Ultimately, it depends on how much you are willing to spend and lose to commissions. Either way you are able to gain valuable traffic and if buyers need your service or product again, they will most likely come to you directly.

If you aren’t interested in paying an affiliate network company, you also have the option of purchasing software that will help you run your program. The software is installed on your server and te can automatically pay your affiliates as well.

When setting up your affiliate program it is a good idea to look at your options and choose the one that meets your needs both financially and time wise.

If you would like to have a professional website designed for your business at a very reasonable price, please give me a call at 423-613-5590 or vist me online at www.newportwebsites.com . If you need to speed-up or fix your computer before even considering a website visit me at www.comprevive.com . We can have your computer or website up and running at full speed in no time.

I just wanted to let everyone see the email I received from a fellow internet marketer. This man is one of the top internet marketers in the industry. I am on one of his joint venture lists and was surprised to get this email from him about Dr. Paul.

I have read his blog posts and had a feeling he was a supporter but it is kind of a taboo to send out a political message to your business list. But he took the risk and I respect that. Putting principles above the money. I have copied the email below.

Here is the email he sent to his list on the 5th.

* I realize this is a little different than the topics
I usually write you about, please understand that I
care a great deal about America, and I am geniunely
concerned for its future *

Hi Nathan,

I just donated to Ron Paul’s presidential campaign.

If you don’t know who he is, just Google… Ron Paul

Or you can go to his site at:

RON PAUL 2008

He is having a record-setting day of fund-raising, you
need to see what’s going on with this grass-roots
movement across America, you won’t hear too much about
in the mass media (could it be they don’t want you to
know?).

I don’t necessarily agree with everything he says,
but one thing for sure that I agree with him on
is America needs to get back to using the Constitution
as its guide for the freedoms that it gave us over
200 years ago.

(if you don’t live in the USA, please be patient with
me as I discuss this with USA citizens for a moment

What I’m talking about here is NOT a Democrat or
Republican issue.

It IS an issue of how our country has steadily been
run into the ground for the last hundred years by
politicians who have chosen to ignore the Constitution
in how our government is to be FOR the people, not
AT the people.

Whoever you support for President, I hope you will
become active with your time and financial support too.
It’s one of your rights and privileges (thankfully still).

And if you haven’t taken a serious look at what Ron
Paul stands for (he’s the only guy I’ve heard that
keeps his message the same no matter what group he’s
talking to), I encourage you to check his website,
and search on Google, and go look on YouTube.com too.

I will be back with you in a few days with a very
special announcement of a new product that can quickly
position you well above your competition, and help
create the lifestyle that you’ve been wanting.

As always, my best to you –

Mark Hendricks

I am a county coordinator for Ron Paul’s campaign so I wrote Mark and asked if I could send this out to my Meetup groups and to my other lists and he said he would be happy if I did so. Since I am an internet marketer myself, it was inspiring to see one of the top-dogs in the industry, risk his lists of 100’s of thousands of people (customers and potential customers) to spread the message of Liberty. Please just take a few moments to check out the Ron Paul Revolution.
I would love to hear your comments on this.

Sincerely,
Nathan Hull
Plain Tech Talk for Ron Paul

P.S. I have a very nice guide on SEO titled “Basic SEO Explained” at a ridiculous price at:

One major point to remember when creating your first blog is copyright laws. Because your blog shares many attributes of your local newspaper, think for a moment about what the newspaper looks like. It has a masthead, headings, and stories. It has a certain number of columns, fonts of a certain size and type, and stories categorized within sections. It looks that way every day. It is consistent. You’ll take a lot more from the Old Media than just lessons on consistency, when creating your blog.

If you have a news blog, you’ll copy parts of stories that will set up your own commentary. A technology blog may quote articles and experts speaking in interviews you did not give. In other words, unless you’ll be presenting completely original work on your blog, you’ll have to deal with basic issues of copyright. This article is by no means a legal guide, and we recommend you familiarize yourself with the basic issues of copyright before you copy another’s material . There are some very good blogs which cover this issue . There are a few principles that can help you lay the foundations of a safe and legal Blog Empire and those are what we will focus on today.

The first issue is attribution. The blog owner must always attribute the work of others to them and not to himself, even by default. That means interviews, passages, and photographs found online are the property of others and their rights should be respected. If you quote a passage of text, make sure you tell whence it originated (either through a link or a description) and be sure not to claim it for your own.

The second issue is “fair use.” Americans may copy and distribute the work of others under the doctrine of “fair use” under certain legally-defined terms. This generally includes short passages, and certainly includes passages that the user is commenting on. For news and technology blogs, copyright is not as much of an issue as for other blogs.

However, if your blog is an art blog, these issues become complex enough that seeking competent legal counsel is a must. Copyright law does not allow you to distribute, for example, .MP3 files from your favorite bands or the photography of your favorite artist just because you have the technical know-how to copy and upload them.

Also remember that copyright laws and issue differ from nation to nation. Many people believe that they can get away with infringing the intellectual and artistic rights of others because the web is international. However, as your blog is meant to be viewed by millions, you should respect copyright and work within your nation’s applicable laws. The main reason being that your reputation, as an honest business, will depend upon it.
