What would you do if your the Network Marketing Co closed it’s doors after you spent all your time and money building a large organization that you thought would be your legacy to your children’s children. This has happened over and over again in this industry and sadly people don’t know about it until it happens and then they have to start over again from scratch. 
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What would you do? If you have developed strong relationships with your team where they Know, Like and Trust you then you will be blessed because they will be loyal to you. Because they trust your judgement they will follow you to the next company. What is the cost if you haven’t built those relationships? I think you know the answer.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, just go out there, take the time to nurture those relationships, build friendships that will last for a lifetime. You will be blessed beyond just securing your future. Whether your Co is around forever or not you will reap the benefits of truly helping your team and being a true leader.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Have with fun with it, just let it happen naturally, be real and authentic, laugh with them and cry with them, share your life stories with them. Stop and listen to what’s on their heart. Find out what matters to them, see where they are at so you can lift them up and empower them. Thus building a value based relationship of Know, Like and Trust.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is a strategy that I work on daily and I find it very rewarding to know that I’m making a difference in peoples lives all around the world not just for today but for a lifetime.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bob Berg states in his best seller “Endless Referrals” that “All things being equal, people will do business with, and refer business to, those people they Know, Like and Trust.”
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Think about the last time someone on your team reached out to you and you were to busy to respond the way you should have….

Google offers a lot of free tools to use with the convenience of being able to access them with one login.

Marketers in particular should take advantage of these tools to get more out of their search engine and social media marketing experience. The following are some of the top Google tools marketers should embrace from A to (almost) Z!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




1. Google AdSense&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-adsense.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-adsense.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ever created a niche website for linking purposes, affiliate 
marketing, content development, or another reason that never panned out?
  If the website gets even a moderate amount of traffic, and you have no
 other use for it for the time being, why not earn a little income off 
of it using &lt;a href="https://www.google.com/adsense/" target="_Blank"&gt;Google AdSense&lt;/a&gt;?
  By simply placing some ad code in the header, content, and sidebar of 
the website, you can earn some passive income.  The amount you earn will
 depend on the topic of the website and the amount of visitors it 
receives.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




2. Google AdWords&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-adwords.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="285" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-adwords.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
If you’re not getting good enough traction with organic search traffic, then you might want to consider a paid search campaign using Google AdWords. By bidding for the right keywords, you can gain a considerable amount of qualified traffic where the conversions will meet or exceed the value you pay for your ads. Be sure to use advanced targeting options for location, mobile or desktop browsers, and other criteria to get the target audience you want.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




3. Google AdWords Keyword Tool&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-adwords-keyword-tool.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="315" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-adwords-keyword-tool.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Need keyword ideas for your search engine marketing campaign or paid search advertising? Try the Google AdWords Keyword Tool. When you enter a term that offers a wide range of ideas, like SEO, you will get groupings of keyword ideas that you can dig deeper into. While the total of the global searches is not always spot on, it can give you an idea of whether one keyword is more or less popular than another. You can also see an approximate cost per click (CPC) amount, if you were trying to target the keyword using Google AdWords.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




4. Google Alerts&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-alerts.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="275" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-alerts.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Want to keep on top of the latest news, mentions of your brand, or other items in Google search? Then set up your Google Alerts. When you enter a search query, you will get a sample of the results you would receive and the option to have them delivered regularly to your email inbox or RSS reader. You can use this to keep up with your competition as well to see where they are getting mentioned or are building profiles.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




5. Google Analytics&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-analytics.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="375" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-analytics.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Google Analytics is probably one of the most powerful Google tools that you can use a as a marketer. You can learn so much about your website’s visitors including, but not limited to, the following:
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Demographics – Learn more about your audience, including their location and language.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Social Engagement – See what social networks visitors come from and how they interact with your website’s social plugins (custom coding must be implemented).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Technology Used – Find out what browsers, operating systems, and networks your visitors are using to view your website.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Mobile Information – Curious if you need a mobile website?  Find out how many of your visitors are using mobile technology. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Traffic Sources – Analyze what websites, keywords, search engines, and other referrers send traffic to your website.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Top Content – Get a handle on how effective your content is by seeing your top entry and exit pages.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; What Leads to Conversions – Set up goals in Google Analytics to find out which visitors complete conversions such as purchasing a product or signing up for a mailing list.  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
So really, there is no excuse for not using this powerful and, best of all, free tool on your website.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




6. Google Blogger&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/CM0MujWwUm8?feature=player_embedded" width="640"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;

If you want to start a blog, but you’re not ready to commit to a self-hosted blogging platform such as WordPress, then you might want to consider Blogger. If it’s been awhile since you last took a look at it, you might be interested in some of the latest improvements noted in the above video. There have been rumors in the past that getting links on Google-owned properties can help with the indexing of your website, so don’t overlook the power of Blogger!
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




7. Google Blog Search&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-blog-search.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="330" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-blog-search.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
You may be wondering exactly what is so special about Google Blog Search that merits a mention as a powerful Google tool. It’s not necessarily the search itself, but the fact that you can turn the search results into an RSS feed. Why is this so great? If you take the following URL:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;amp;ie=utf-8&amp;amp;q=link:http://domain.com/&amp;amp;tbm=blg&amp;amp;tbs=sbd:1&amp;amp;output=rss&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then replace domain.com with your website, you can get an RSS feed of the latest links to your website on a blog.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-blog-search_001.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-blog-search_001.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
You can use this to keep up with mentions of your website on blogs, or you can use this to keep up with your competitors. For example, if you are looking for guest posting opportunities, seeing what your competitors can get might lead you to some good places to submit to yourself.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




8. Google Books&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-books.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="357" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-books.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
If you love reading, then Google Books can be a good place to go to find books online in all genres, some of which you can read for free. But from a marketing perspective, if you have a book, then you will want to get it listed on Google Books so that you can sell it to an even larger audience, especially now that Google is competing with iTunes and other online media retailers with their new Google Play store for music, books, movies, and Android apps.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




9. Google Calendar&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-calendar.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="285" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-calendar.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Want to keep up with important events in your daily schedule? Then Google Calendar is the answer. You can share your calendar with other users or even to the public and embed it onto your website. You can even set reminder alerts to be sent as a popup when you’re logged in to your Google account or via email. Use it to keep track of guest posting opportunities, Twitter chats, advertising expiration dates, editorial calendars, and much, much more.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




10. Google Chrome&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-chrome.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="275" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-chrome.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
If you’re not using Google Chrome, then you’re missing out. This browser really is fast and has a ton of extensions, apps, and themes that you can install to increase your marketing productivity including some favorites such as:

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jgoepmocgafhnchmokaimcmlojpnlkhp" target="_blank"&gt;Google +1 Button&lt;/a&gt; – +1 and share a web page to your Google+ profile anywhere using this extension.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jjaakbhpcbpmojkhpiaacepfcaniglak" target="_blank"&gt;Klout&lt;/a&gt; – Addicted to knowing Klout scores?  Use this to see Klout scores next to users while using Twitter.com. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/diahigjngdnkdgajdbpjdeomopbpkjjc" target="_blank"&gt;SEO Site Tools&lt;/a&gt; – Learn a lot of valuable on-site search engine optimization information about any website you are browsing (including Google PageRank) using this extension.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




11. Google Docs&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-docs.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-docs.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Want to share documents, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, and tables with other users to view online or download? Then Google Docs is for you. You can collaborate with multiple users or just give access to a read-only version of documents like the publicly accessible Twitter Chat Schedule spreadsheet. You can even create forms and send them via a link or directly in an email to collect survey answers, crowdsource post information, and other data.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




12. Google DoubleClick Ad Planner&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-doubleclick-ad-planner.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="325" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-doubleclick-ad-planner.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Need some quick traffic or demographics information for a website? Get it using Google DoubleClick Ad Planner.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




13. Google Drive&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wKJ9KzGQq0w?feature=player_embedded" width="640"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
Want to share files online? Then Google Drive might be worth a try. You can currently store 5GB in Google Drive, 1GB in Picasa, and 10GB in Gmail for free. Pricing begins at $2.49 per month for 25GB and goes all the way up to $799 per month for 16TB. Welcome to the Google cloud!
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




14. Google Gadgets&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-gadgets.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-gadgets.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




15. Google Insights&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-insights.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="350" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-insights.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Google Insights allows you to search for keywords to see their trends over time. This way, you can see whether a keyword is gaining in popularity, see worldwide search trends over the course of a year to find popular months or seasons for a search, see search volume by region, and find a list of top ten related searches and rising searches.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




16. Google Mail (Gmail)&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-mail-gmail.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="390" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-mail-gmail.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Need email with a smart filtering system? Gmail might be the answer. One of the best features in Gmail is the ability to filter messages into multiple labels and have them skip the inbox or simply label them for easy archiving. Using your Gmail filters wisely can help you keep your inbox clean and organized. Plus, the search function on Gmail is not too shabby either.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




17. Google Places&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-places.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-places.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Want your local business to show up before organic search results? For some keywords, it can thanks to Google Places. Be sure that you claim or add your listing on Google Places, complete your profile, add photos &amp;amp; videos, and encourage reviews so that your business will make it to the first page of search results.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




18. Google+&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-plus.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-plus.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Google+ is Google’s latest and, to date, most successful foray into the social networking world. They have not only created a thriving social network, but they have incorporated it into almost every aspect of the Google experience, including Google search results themselves. Thanks to personalized search results, you can actually rank higher than normal in search results for those you are connected with on the network. Be sure to check out this quick guide to learn why you should be on Google+!
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




19. Google +1 Button&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-plus-one-button.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="280" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-plus-one-button.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
With +1 counts showing up in search results, you might want to go ahead and install the Google +1 Button on your website and content. This will make it easier to share on Google+ as well as add to its social engagement numbers. In addition, when someone +1s your website, their connections might see it placed higher in search results as well.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




20. Google Reader&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-reader.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="285" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-reader.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Google Reader allows you to view and organize your RSS feeds all in one place. If you’re already using your Google Account for Gmail and Google+ on a regular basis, why not keep track of your favorite blog’s RSS feeds, Google Alerts, and other feeds in the same account.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




21. Google Translate&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-translate.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-translate.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
If you run into an email, blog comment, or webpage in another language, use Google Translate to quickly translate it into yours. The best part is you don’t even need to know what language it is in thanks to the auto-detect features. It may not be a perfect translation, but it will get the main point across.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




22. Google Trends&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-trends.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="450" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-trends.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Google Trends offers a variety of information such as the searches that are currently popular, Google Insights data for keywords, and traffic trends for websites if you search for a particular domain.com. You can even enter multiple domains, separated by a comma, to compare traffic. Note that traffic trends are only available for websites with a high volume of traffic.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




23. Google Voice&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-voice.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="225" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-voice.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Google Voice allows you to create a phone number to make and receive phone calls and text. You can view your messages in an interface similar to your Gmail. It’s a good alternative if you don’t want to give out your office or cell phone number for particular contacts!

Another cool little trick with Google Voice is that you can set up a Google Voice number specifically for tracking how effective your phone number placement on your website is. Every time someone calls in using your Google Voice number, you can count the calls in your Google Voice account. This will allow you to test the size, location and color of your website phone number.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




24. Google Webmaster Tools&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-webmaster-tools.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/google-webmaster-tools.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Google Webmaster Tools is another Google product that puts a large amount of valuable data at your fingertips. If you have already set up your website with Google Analytics, you can easily add it to Google Webmaster Tools to start learning the following.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Site Configuration&lt;/b&gt; – This section checks your website’s settings on the web, including preferred domain canonicalization, sitelinks, URL parameters, change of address, and users who have access.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Site Health&lt;/b&gt; – This section includes crawl errors, stats, blocked URLs, and malware alerts.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Site Traffic&lt;/b&gt; – This section includes search queries (aka, possibly some of the keywords omitted from Google Analytics thanks to the keyword &lt;i&gt;not provided&lt;/i&gt;, links to your website (a comprehensive view of your backlink profile), internal links, and +1 reports.  +1 reports tells you the search impact of results showing your website’s +1 count vs. without showing it, +1 activity on your website, and audience demographics. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Site Optimization&lt;/b&gt; – This section includes your sitemaps, HTML improvement suggestions, content keywords, and other resources.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
Also, be sure to keep an eye on the Labs section at the end. It changes with new, experimental Google Webmaster Tools features. One Labs feature that I would like to see return is statistics on any pages for which you are the author using Google authorship.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;




25. Google (Owned) YouTube&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/youtube.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="470" src="http://blog.kissmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/youtube.png" width="652" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Last, but not least, if you want to dominate the video market, then start with Google-owned YouTube. Not only will your video be available to YouTube’s millions upon millions of visitors, but it will also be on prime real estate for showing up in search results. Even if you can’t get your website on the first page of search results through traditional SEO, you might be able to get there with video!

There you have it – some of the most powerful Google applications and tools on the web. What are your favorites?

&lt;h3&gt;

&lt;span style="color: #cc3300;"&gt;BUSINESS IS BOOMING ONLINE!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
If you’re like me, you’re intrigued by the idea of finally earning 
what you’re worth and being able to work from anywhere and make your own
 hours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Imagine what you’re life will be like once you learn to &lt;a href="http://www.empowernetwork.com/almostasecret.php?id=dougiebenecke" target="_blank"&gt;make money on the Internet&lt;/a&gt;…&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How will you feel when  you finally get “beyond money”… when you’re 
at a point where you have enough income coming in every month so that 
money is no longer an issue in your life…&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you can provide the things for your family that you’ve always 
wanted to… travel first class to great destinations …  give abundantly 
to the causes that matter to you…   help others who need a hand up… make
 a difference.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Imagine what it will be like when you can get up when you’re finished
 sleeping, instead of when the alarm clock goes off… and imagine how 
much more pleasant each morning would be if your commute was just down 
the hall to your home office… or to the local coffee shop where you can 
do your work on your laptop or iPad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can tell you from experience, this is a MUCH better way to live!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was 50 and tired when I &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;finally&lt;/span&gt;
 decided to TAKE CONTROL and figure out &lt;a href="http://www.empowernetwork.com/almostasecret.php?id=dougiebenecke" target="_blank"&gt;how to make money online&lt;/a&gt;.    I 
knew others were doing it, and so I knew that if I could just find out 
what they knew, I could do it too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I’ve always been willing to work hard. I’ve earned good money and 
we’ve enjoyed a comfortable lifestyle, but until I discovered the basic 
formula for making money online, I could never get much beyond just 
paying the bills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And we DEFINITELY don’t have enough investment income to even consider retirement… can you relate?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I paid a big price in time and money to learn the skills necessary to
 create a profitable online business. It was hard… and the task felt 
almost overwhelming many times…. I didn’t grow up with this stuff.   If 
you feel that way too, I have very good news for you…&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;very unlikely&lt;/span&gt; 
young guys who have experienced amazing success online in just a few 
years, have created a business that ANYONE CAN DO, regardless of 
experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They have a simple product and a simple system for making money with 
it, and they’re sharing their business and their knowledge with anyone 
who chooses to participate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s not a get rich quick scheme…. it requires a willingness to work 
and learn… but if you’re ready to take back control of YOUR life, these 
guys have created the best system I’ve seen for doing that.  And you can
 have it for just $25.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s simple, it only takes an hour or two a day, and you can start 
have commissions deposited into your bank within 24 hours of getting 
started.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In fact, I challenge you to see if their video doesn’t make you want 
to buy their system. I’ll bet it does.  But don’t worry…. it’s only $25.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To find out, and to get the rest of the story,  &lt;a href="http://www.empowernetwork.com/almostasecret.php?id=dougiebenecke" target="_blank"&gt;fill in your contact info below&lt;/a&gt; and click the button to GET INSTANT ACCESS.  Then watch Dave 
Woods share an idea that can help you make a LOT of money on the 
Internet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dave’s a bit scruffy looking for my taste, but I’ve met him and he’s a
 great guy with a big heart. And he’s one of the most successful 
individuals in the world in Internet Marketing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Tony Robbins always says, “SUCCESS LEAVES CLUES”.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Turn off all the distractions and TAKE NOTES as this very successful 
young man shares some very valuable information with you… information 
that can literally change your life for the better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I’ll see you on the other side of that &lt;a href="http://www.empowernetwork.com/almostasecret.php?id=dougiebenecke" target="_blank"&gt;click!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

But why burst their bubble? Let them daydream awhile….&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;Working  at home can be all the wonderful things that those people daydream  about. Setting my own hours, working at my own pace (project deadlines  permitting), running to the market at 1 o’clock on a Wednesday afternoon  when there’s &lt;i&gt;nobody&lt;/i&gt; at the store---these are just a few of the  plusses of working at home. For parents (whether it is the mom or dad,  or both working at home), being able to adjust their working schedule to  school schedules, being able to take the kids to the orthodontist or to  soccer practice, working at home is a definite plus. For people who  don’t work at home and who &lt;i&gt;want&lt;/i&gt; to work at home, it is probably  hard to think of even one minus. But the fact of the matter is, the  minuses do exist---in abundance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;It  is not my purpose here to ruin all your hopes or plans to establish  yourself as a work-at-homer. In fact, I do encourage you to follow that  dream and &lt;i&gt;be&lt;/i&gt; your own boss. However, I want you to take just a  few minutes to take stock of your situation and once and for all decide  if working at home really is in your best interest.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;First,  and obviously, you have to have a job skill that is amenable to the  at-home environment. If you trim poodles on the weekend and think you  can turn it into a full-time at-home business, then look around. Do you  live in a two-bedroom apartment on the second floor and just do your  neighbor’s poodle once a month (but you do it &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; well)? Or do  you live in a four-bedroom ranch house with a three-car garage that can  be made over into “Donna’s Clip Joint” and you live in an urban  neighborhood where everyone has pets? And even if you do, what about all  the permits that you will need? Will you be able to pursue this type of  work at home, and do so legally?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;The  most applicable work-at-home job skills involve the use of a computer,  the Internet, phone, fax, and other small business/office machines. You  can hardly drive from home to the grocery store without seeing those  signs nailed to telephone poles: “Got a Computer? Earn up to $2000 at  home!” Of course, you &lt;i&gt;can&lt;/i&gt;, but can &lt;i&gt;you&lt;/i&gt;?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;For  the sake of argument, let’s presume then that you have a computer and  an assortment of small business machines, and that you do indeed have  some skill that you believe can be marketed. Let’s focus on &lt;i&gt;you&lt;/i&gt;  for a minute: Are you self-disciplined? Are you organized? Do you have  the proper workspace where you can work undisturbed? Are you able to  face a workday where you have no supervision or guidance? Can you work  at home, day after day, without having the people contact that you would  typically find “on the job”? When you have overlapping projects, will  you be able to cope with the necessary prioritizing so that you get that  time-critical job done on time without jeopardizing the next job in  line?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;The  list of questions goes on. And this doesn’t begin to address the “what  ifs” that go hand-in-hand with working at home. What if you don’t have  any work this week? What if work doesn’t come in the week after that?  What if you get sick and can’t finish a project on time? What if your  client doesn’t pay you on time? What if your client doesn’t pay you at  all?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;Financial  gurus recommend that we all should have three months’ wages tucked away  in a “bail out” savings account so that in case of illness or work  stoppage, we can “bail out” our sinking checking accounts and pay the  bills, pay the rent, buy groceries. Let’s face it, how many of us really  have three months’ salary bankrolled? Most of us are lucky if we have  one month's salary in a demand savings account that’s hooked to our  checking account that gets dipped into on a more regular basis than we’d  like to admit. If that is the case, then are you really in a position  where you can handle the uncertainties of establishing and maintaining a  work-at-home business?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;This isn’t to say that even if all these things are true, that you &lt;i&gt;shouldn’t&lt;/i&gt;  make the move to be your own boss and work at home. I’m a perfect  example. When I made my move to start working at home, I was fortunate  in that my husband was working full-time and earning “decent” money (not  a fortune, not more than enough, but “enough”). He believed in me and  gave me great support while I established my business. It took me more  than five years to get to the point where I could count on having work  just about every day (based on a five-day, 50-week “normal” annual work  schedule). During that time, I had periods when I didn’t work for five  weeks or more and times when the "check in the mail" was delayed or  "lost." It took me over three years just to finally break the “one  client” barrier (I now have several “regular” clients, along with the  occasional client for whom I do one project). The point here is that I  did it; I built my own at-home business, and I now think of myself as  “successful.” I don’t earn a fortune, but I “make a living."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;I  don’t think that anyone could ever honestly tell you that there is one,  no-fail method of how to become your own boss and establish a  “successful” at-home business. The variables are endless and there is no  way to provide you with a formula for how you go about setting yourself  up as an entrepreneur. In the end, becoming successful and realizing  your dream of working at home depends on you, and you alone. You must  have a marketable skill; you need adequate workspace and supporting  equipment; you must have the personal demeanor that lends itself to this  type of work environment; and you must have confidence in yourself, as  well as the support of those around you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;With  these things, you can be a success. You’ll be able to tell people, “I  work at home”…then stand back and watch them daydream.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;For  more information about working at home and tips, ideas, and suggestions  for operating a home-based business, please visit Jan's other articles,  Working at Home/Home-Based Business at: &lt;a href="http://www.jansportal.com/"&gt;http://www.jansportal.com&lt;/a&gt;, and click thru to Jan's Free Content.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

You always find that interesting business introduction, showing you how much money can be made, you can see the "proof" of income and you get captured into the moment, thinking "I can make this work for". But, the catch at the bottom of the page is always the same, there is a cost to gain access to that business opportunity and other hidden costs further on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That was the way I ventured into a few opportunities in the past, thinking that the business is working for that person, so just plug into it and it will do the same for me as well. Sure, I will need to get to know how it works, complete the training, tweak a few things to drive traffic to that site to recruit leads, but that is acceptable. &lt;b&gt;NOT!&lt;/b&gt; It's costing you a monthly subscription fee to stay in that business opportunity and your hoping to recruit a few leads to break even and to make it work. Yeah, the 1st month will be a loss, that might be acceptable, but what about the 2nd and 3rd month, how long can you continue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've burnt my fingers on a few of theses subscribed ventures, you follow the training and sometime it is over whelming, you battle to keep to the rules of simplicity, there are so many methods to chose from, nothing seems to be so simple as when you first read the introduction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I unregistered from my last venture and started searching for the FREE opportunities and they are out there. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href="http://bit.ly/h0eQWL"&gt;&lt;b&gt;FREE, YES FREE&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, there are online businesses on the web that are prepared to give it away for free. They are prepared to give you the opportunity, to grow and work as a team. You might not cash in as much straight away, but you can eventually. Normally there are different registration options, from &lt;i&gt;free&lt;/i&gt; to a &lt;i&gt;higher&lt;/i&gt; entry option that will increase your income. YES there is no signup costs, no monthly subscriptions, no additional  addons, no credit card numbers being requested and you can made money  from them.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've found one called the &lt;a href="http://bit.ly/h0eQWL"&gt;Better WebBuilder&lt;/a&gt;, please have a look at it. I'm going to apply my knowledge gained, follow the instructions given and see how many leads I can capture. Even if is takes 3 months before I can see a return, it will cost me nothing. If I do capture leads quicker than expected, I can then upgrade to the next registration level and make a higher residual income. Nothing to loose and everything to gain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I will continue to search for more of these FREE start-up income opportunities and share them on this blog in the future. Please visit again, thanks for your time.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Subscribe to MyHomeNetBiz

&lt;br /&gt;
An internet friend introduced me to &lt;a _mce_href="http://tinyurl.com/4as6l52" href="http://tinyurl.com/4as6l52"&gt;FreeTrafficBar&lt;/a&gt;,   which builds add credits as you surf the web. It does the work for you   without you doing anything, creating free traffic every day. I been   surfing on the web for about 6 minutes and have already generated 44 add   credits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to the traffic, there is also a downline  builder program which can enable you to build additional income, traffic  and access to over 100 programs at once. This program can pay you up to  50% commission on a monthly basis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span _mce_style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;" style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
So, please have a look at the &lt;a href="http://freetrafficbar.com/h/130624/"&gt;FreeTrafficBar&lt;/a&gt;, there are plenty of additional features that can be used within it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Subscribe to MyHomeNetBiz
