Save Time – Get Your Computer Optimized

admin — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 17:41:49 +0000

Do you find yourself wasting tons of time waiting for your computer to load, is your browser 10 times slower than it was before? Did you install programs on your computer that are slowing it down? If so, you need to find someone who will fix your computer remotely, right now, without spending an arm and a leg.

If you run your business on your computer, you need fast access to a reliable tech who can work on your computer remotely any time you need it. This is a MUST if you want to maintain productivity. Most of the time, you just get used to how sluggish your computer is — you learn to deal with the problems and your productivity suffers.

Often times, just a few quick adjustments could drastically increase your CPU’s performance and will make it easier to get what you need done online.

I have used both onsite and remote computer assistance. The problem with onsite is that you have to make an appointment and then it interrupts your schedule. Then, if something wasn’t fixed right, you have to call them out again and then argue with them about the fact that it wasn’t done right the first time. I like remote assistance because when the problem occurs, you can jump online and get help when you need it without waiting or setting an appointment.

The problem with most remote repair services is that they are expensive, usually $125 per incident or $70 per hour. This prevents most people from getting help when they need it. A few weeks ago, my iTunes stopped working — I am not going to pay $125 to get iTunes working — however, because I have an unlimited plan with WebComputerTech.com, I can jump online and get help now.

It is the only plan I have seen that is $249 per year for UNLIMITED help. That is the cost of only two incidents from most services. The great thing too is that because they fix things while I am watching, I can learn some of the steps they take to solve problems.

It doesn’t take long for your computer to start slowing down — especially if you are online a lot. Just the other day I had a glitch on my computer that was causing it to freeze — I could have spent hours online trying to figure out what the issue was, or I can login to my unlimited repair site and get it fixed now while I go eat dinner.

So if you are having an issue right now, go to www.WebComputerTech.com, and get a FREE live consultation. Jump on the $249 plan while you can, I doubt they will keep that option for long since the price is EXTREMELY low for unlimited service for a year!

The Importance Of A Youtube Channel

Youtube is the #1 video site in the world and over half of all Internet traffic is online video. So needless to say, you need to set up your own Youtube channel if you want to compete in today’s market and drive more traffic to your site. Check out our Youtube channel here:

Notice how the Youtube player above shows all of our videos in one box. I can embed this video anywhere I want, in my eBay auctions, my blog, web page — anywhere. This gets you traffic from the Youtube site, and it allows you to show video to your customers without having to pay a dime.

Youtube even allows you to take videos from your phone and email them direct to your account. Then you can easily embed those videos in your auctions or web page. Video has been proven to increase conversion rates by over 100% in some instances.

I will post more on the blog on how to set up your channel and how to use it to drive traffic to your sites so you can sell more sports memorabilia!

Faxaway Internet Faxing Service

admin — Sat, 15 Mar 2008 01:38:11 +0000

I am continuing to list the tools we use in our businesses so you can benefit from them too. Most of the services I am posting are free — or they cost very little money. My goal is to save you tons of time and money as it took us years to find these tools. Previously we used eFax which worked great but they charged around $10 per month even if you didn’t send a fax. Then we were lucky enough to find Faxaway.com — they only charge you for the time you use and if you are faxing to 800 toll free numbers, they don’t charge you anything.

You can send faxes right from your emails, all you do is enter the number @faxaway.com and send it from the email you are registered with, and they send the email as a fax for you.Ã‚Â Since we use Netsuite Small Business for our accounting, Faxaway plugs right in and we can fax invoices direct from our Netsuite account. Sometimes it is easier to reach someone by fax — especially if your emails are not getting through.

Stay tuned as I am going to keep posting more Internet Tools and favorite things on the blog. For quick reference you can click on the tag to the right called “Tools” and you can see the complete list!
