Make More Money In Internet Marketing By BURNING Your PhD In English!
You may be thinking that you will be
a failure in internet marketing just because your English teacher from high school gave you an F for your bad grammar and simple vocabulary.
And
to top it off, your dear teacher probably even said that you will never make it as a writer! Im here
to give you hope because you dont need
to be all that great in writing to make money online.
Dont let your misconception scare you. To write successfully online, you dont need a PhD in English. A lot of successful internet marketers dont use professional and impressive English in their writing. And they AINT gonna start!
You may be protesting: Yes
however, by procuring a transcendent lexicon and capitalizing gargantuan resplendent words will galvanize people
Did you understand that last sentence without spending 10 minutes with a dictionary? Did my big words impress you? Probably not, if I said that to you face to face, you probably thought I was an English obsessed weirdo!
You probably wouldnt bother reading an article that uses those crazy words, unless you are a
true masochist. And I can guess only a very small percentage of people enjoy reading something like that (if any).
You probably wouldnt want to check up each individual word, so let me translate. It says: Yes however, by having a great vocabulary and using big fancy words will impress people.
Did you understand that? YES of course its so simple! And Im guessing most people who can read English didnt have to go the dictionary to understand that phrase. Let me explain a simple truth, we make most money by clear communication, not by complex confusion!
The clearer we can get our message
through to our internet readers, the easier it is to sell to them and therefore make more money! Thats why you shouldnt use professional and proper English in internet marketing all the time.
Additionally, using relax everyday language with your customers gives off a feeling that they are talking to a real live human being, which works better when communicating through the internet. Dont be some intimidating corporate robot thats totally not relatable to them.
We want to make our writing so simple to understand that 99% of the population will know what we are offering. Forget impressing the 1% of the population that has a huge vocabulary, because they will certainly understand our writing also!
So for those of you that had a hard time getting an A in English class, CONGRATULATIONS! You have an advantage over other internet marketers that are brainwashed into thinking that the best way of writing is to use higher-level English (like me darn it!).
You dont have to break the bad habit of using overly sophisticated English. So now you have no excuse for your
sixth grade level English. For those of you who graduated with a PhD in English, CONGRATULATIONS! That shows
dedication and commitment.
However, no one will understand you if you continue writing as you did for your more sophisticated colleagues! Tone it down a little when you are working with your internet marketing business.
Why do you think major newspaper write in simple English? And why are the best selling magazines
written in simple English?
Yup, youve guessed it. They write in simple English so that more people will understand their content and more people will buy! You can show off your superior English to the few people who actually care.
So if you are guilty of having perfect sophisticated English in your message, re-edit everything so that even the dumbest sixth grader will understand it. Youll have messages that will be clear and more people will understand what the heck you are talking about!

Seven Simple Ways To Save Money On Gas
Looking for ways to save money on gas that wont require you to go out and spend more money just so you can save a few bucks at the pump.
If you have a
perfectly good vehicle, then spending $25k on a new hybrid car just so you can save $10 when you fill up at the pump might not be such a good deal.
Also, if youre not the type that wants to install any of those gas saving devices
in your car, then this list is for you.
Whether or not you have any mechanical skills, you can use these no brainier methods to start saving money on gas right now
even if you dont know how to change a tire.
1 Get A Gas Card
Want a tip that will save you money every single time you fill up at the pump no matter what vehicle you drive? Its a gas card. Just about every major gas station offers their own brand of gas credit card that will allow you to save 3-5% on all your gas purchases at their gas stations. Forget about the branded gas cards and
get one that will save you 5% on gas no matter where you fill up, like the Discover Open Road Card. Just remember, pay it off every month or it wont save you any money.
Saving 5% off every gallon of gas means that $3/gallon gas now costs only $2.85 and $4/gallon becomes $3.80. If you have a 25 gallon tank, youd save $3.75 every time you filled up ($3/gallon gas).
A lot of people use a credit card when filling up at the pump anyway since its easy and convenient. You may as well get a gas card so its easy, convenient, and saving you money.
2 Avoid Aggressive Driving
Hitting the gas hard when the light turns green and braking hard will make your car drink gas faster than a drunk at an open bar at a wedding. If you were to drive away from a stop at a more moderate pace,
accelerate in traffic more slowly, and anticipate when youre
going to need to brake ahead of time so you can do so slowly, youre going to save a lot of gas up to 37% about the same
buying a hybrid car but this tip wont cost you anything. (oh yeah, its safer too)
3 Use Your Cruise Control
Personally, I wont buy a car if it doesnt have cruise control, since it means I dont have to worry so much about keeping my speed constant. However, cruise control
also had the added benefit of saving you gas too. On average, youll save about 7% more gas than if you dont use cruise control.
4 Slow Down
Sure, going fast can be
fun. It can also get you a nice collection of speeding tickets, but more importantly, the faster you drive the more gas you use. Im not saying that you need to drive like your grandmother, but slowing down from 75 to 65 can you 12% on you gas bill, and unless youre driving across the country, the time difference in getting where youre going will be minimal.
5 Stop Idling
Having the car running when its not moving wastes gas.
I remember being taught when I was first learning to drive that you should let your car warm up for a few minutes before driving it anywhere when its cold outside. While that may be true for older cars, modern cars dont need warm up time before being ready to drive. Dont drive like a maniac (see #2) before you car is completely warmed up and youll be fine.
If you going to be sitting and waiting some place without moving for more than about a minute, turn off the engine. It probably goes without saying that if you can avoid rush hour traffic, you should.
Also, one great place to sit and waste gas is your local fast food drive-thru. Get off your lazy butt, get out of your car and go inside to get your food.
6 Plan Ahead
Instead of driving to the gym, going home, driving to work, driving home, driving to the store, and then home again, start combining trips whenever possible. This is really easy to do if you just think ahead. Avoid just spontaneously hopping in the car and driving to the store to pick up some milk and eggs. Think about what else you can do if youre going to be out running errands anyway so that you can avoid another trip later.
5 You got legs useem
Really want to save money on gas? Then use your legs. A lot of trips arent really that far, and while it takes a little longer to walk somewhere than to drive there, its a good chance to get outside, get some fresh air and get some exercise in the process. Its really not necessary to drive absolutely everywhere unless you happen to live in the middle of nowhere. So get yourself a comfortable pair of tennis shoes and start walking instead of driving when you can.
Also, a bicycle is a nice compromise between the two, and can actually be faster to get some places than a car. I remember when I was in college and moved off campus although we lived
almost 2 miles from campus, it was a lot faster for me to take my bicycle to go to class than to take my car.
