What You Need to Consider When Adding Audio & Video to Your Website

Adding audio or video to your website can play a major role in increasing your conversion rates. Your visitors will be able to engage in your website in a way that static web pages cannot offer. By having videos and audio files, you can more readily personalize your message even more adding the big "T" factor to the equation... T as in TRUST. If you can gain the trust of your visitors they will become your loyal viewers or listeners and look forward to your next personalized message to them.

However, audio and video not only add a personal touch, they also can help save time for your visitor. With the ever increasing demands on your time in this era, having information you can listen to or watch rather than read makes the experience even more relaxing and rewarding to your visitor. By establishing this comfort level with them, you're already on the road to gaining their trust and loyalty. These two things play a major role in your sales.

But the question remains, what's the best software to use if you want to add video and audio to your website? Well, if you've noticed a lot of the videos and audio files that I have been sending out are created using Audio Acrobat. This is a very simple program and it's extremely popular among online webmasters and marketers. However, I do use a third party service. The reason is I do this is because if I did put the large audio or video files on my server, a lot of times it will bog things down. However, I highly recommend using a third party storage provider. One really good one is Amazon Cloud. You can use Amazon Cloud to store your videos and your audios and stream it from there to make things a lot simpler for you.

I'd suggest not using your own website. Using a third party service is a much better option because it won't bog down your server. You have to also realize that the audio and video on your site will definitely increase the amount of traffic you're getting. If you're producing good quality stuff, it will become very viral and you'll get a ton of hits on it which would take up way too much bandwidth. So I personally recommend getting a third party service.

My experience should be an indicator of what to do. I guess it's just based upon my experience that I can share the best options with you. Actually, I'm even spending $2,500 a month on a lot of my hosting - granted, I've got a lot of different sites out there. But I still don't even use my own hosting account to do it. I still use third party services and I recommend you do too if you're adding audio and/or video to your website.

Pay per Click Management Services: Driving More Traffic to Your Website

Have you ever tried counting the number of websites existing in the World Wide Web? Just by running a search using a keyword in Google, it will give you an idea on the number of websites. Therefore getting noticed by web visitors is paramount to the success of any online venture. A better web presence can be achieved through a high ranking on search engines. But again, getting to page 1 of search engine result page is a daunting and time-taking task. For a new website, which needs an initial boost to make it mark on the web, it needs a quick and reliable method to get more clicks. This is where pay per click advertisement comes in handy. Pay per click advertisement is offered by leading search engines including Google. In such an advertisement, your site is advertised on the search engine result page and you pay for the advertisement only when your site gets clicked. As long as your site does not get clicked you do not pay to the search engine. And unlike the organic results on the le

What is Duodenal Ulcer and How to Diagnose?

The condition referred to as Duodenal Ulcer is one that typically announces itself as a sharp, severe pain in the upper part of the abdomen (the Epigastrium), appearing when a person is hungry and the stomach is empty. Essentially, duodenal ulcers are caused by too much acid in the stomach; when the acid proves too strong for the protective inner lining of the duodenum (the part where the stomach joins the small intestine), it starts, in effect, burning a hole in the stomach wall. It is this crater, or ulcer, which results in pain, particularly when there is no food inside the stomach to use up the acid that is being produced. Patients who develop duodenal ulcers usually tend to get relief from their pain by taking some milk, bland food or antacid tablets (like milk of magnesia), which can neutralize the excess acid. The danger of duodenal ulcers is that they erode the stomach wall - either perforating (so that the contents of the stomach leak out into the abdominal cavity) or erod
