Party Tips
TOILET
PAPER GAME
Before the party, tell each guest on
their reminder phone call that they need to bring some toilet
paper to the party for a game. Let them know it doesn't matter
how much, or how little - what type, or what color. If they want
to just bring one square, that's fine, as well as someone that
brings 24 rolls. Any amount is fine. They just need to bring it.
When party starts, pass around paper
and pen. Have guests keep score for themselves, and ask them to
get their toilet paper out.
Here are the points:
10 sheets/squares or less = 10
points (or auction money works great!)
10 sheets/squares or more = 20
points
Whole roll = 30 pts.
Individually wrapped roll = 25
points
Four Pack = 50 pts.
Nine Pack = 75 pts.
12+ Pack = 100 pts.
1 ply = 15 pts.
2 ply = 30 pts.
3 ply = 50 pts.
If they roll it under on the bar =
25 pts.
If they roll it over the bar = 50
pts.
If it's on a vertical stand/spinner
= 75 pts.
White toilet paper = 25 pts.
Colored toilet paper = 50 pts.
Designs/flowers = 50 pts.
Quilted toilet paper = 50 pts.
If they purchased just for party =
75 pts.
If it's a generic brand from the
store = 15 pts.
If it's a generic brand from
somewhere else = minus 15 pts.
If it's name brand = 50 pts.
If they borrowed from the hostess
(didn't bring own) = minus 50 points
Now, tell them if they are willing
to put their toilet paper into this bag (pass around a clean
white trash bag), you will give them 100 bonus points that will
help their totals, and help them at the end of the night/game.
Wait for them to decide if they are
willing to give it away. Pass the bag around and collect them
all. After you collect the bag back, and it's full......
Now tell them that if they KEPT
their toilet paper, you'll give them 200 bonus pts!
Have them add their totals. The one
with the most points gets the bag of toilet paper, and if you do
auction money, they get that amount in auction money!

Strategies to Put Eyeballs On Your Website
Copyright © 2006 Bill Platt
the
Phantom Writers
http://thePhantomWriters.com
Successful websites are those that actually sell products and
services to their visitors for a profit. And, successful
webmasters are always working hard to bring even more visitors to
their website, so that they can make even more sales and profits.
Successful webmasters all share three essential traits. First,
they have developed processes for generating links to their
website. Secondly, they have figured out how to employ a strong
call-to-action with their advertising. And thirdly, they know how
to track and test their results so that they can fine-tune their
advertising.
ALL
LINKS ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL
A
human being will never see some links. Maybe the search engines
will construe those links as valuable links, but I would not count
on it. Google is a little too smart to give value to links that
human beings cannot find on their own.
Eyeballs are important to Google, and they should be important to
you too.
While some links will serve no use to you directly or in the
search engines, other links will prove to be far more valuable.
Some links will deliver hundreds or thousands of visitors a month
to your website.
Successful webmasters are those that can generate links that will
deliver hundreds or thousands of visitors to their websites each
month! It all adds up. The more valuable the links are that you
can develop, the more traffic you will serve. The more traffic you
serve, the more profitable your website will become.
LINK
PLACEMENT STRATEGIES
There are many well-known methods for generating links to your
website. Five of the more noteworthy and effective are as follows:
*
Paid Links
*
Viral Linking
*
Article Marketing
*
Paid Search
*
Directory Placements
Here
is an overview of each:
1.
Paid Links
Usually, this type of advertising is delivered in banner formats,
but is also available in text links. Pricing for paid links
varies from cheap to incredibly expensive.
If
you have an advertising budget equal to that of General Motors,
then you could afford to buy advertising in one of the
mega-websites such as: Yahoo! Games, Cnet.com, Disney.com, or
FoxNews.com.
These mega-websites can deliver your advertising message to
literally tens of thousands of people per day, but the costs can
be staggering.
As
always, you will get what you pay for. If you buy advertising on
one of the mega-websites, you will get a lot of exposure for a lot
of money. If you buy advertising on one of the small traffic
websites, you will get a little bit of exposure for a little bit
of money.
2.
Viral Linking
Viral Marketing is a concept that suggests that your marketing
message can pass from person-to-person, through existing social
networks. In theory, if you have a compelling marketing message,
people will be inclined to tell their friends, who will tell their
friends, etc. Just like a virus that passes from person-to- person
through human contact, your marketing message can also spread like
wildfire.
If
you create a resource page on your website that is full of
valuable information and links to other resources, you will find
that people will want to share your page with others. And, if you
create free tools and services that are cool, clever or useful,
then people will also want to link to those as well. The better
your offering, the more likely people will be to link to it.
For
example, according to MSN, there are 677 links to the tool called
the TPW Text-to-Hyperlink Converter:
http://thephantomwriters.com/link-builder.pl
and over 98,000 links to a search engine submission tool called
Free Web Submission at:
http://www.freewebsubmission.com
3.
Article Marketing
If
you can create an informational article, you can add information
to the end of that article that tells about you and your website.
Upon completion, you can offer your informational article to
publishers and webmasters as a Free Reprint Article. This
designation tells publishers and webmasters that they can use your
article in their ezine or website, so long as they keep your
Author Information and links intact.
While there are literally hundreds of places to place your
articles, these two are among the best:
http://www.EzineArticles.com
http://www.GoArticles.com
4.
Paid Search
The
basic structure of Pay-Per-Click search advertising is that you
can bid on keywords, and then the highest bidder on a search
keyword gets the top spot. The next highest bidder gets the second
spot, etc. The advertiser does not pay for advertising unless
someone actually clicks on his or her advertisement, and then the
advertiser is billed at the rate that the advertiser has agreed to
pay the search company.
PPC
advertising can be purchased at:
Google Adwords -
http://adwords.google.com
Yahoo! Overture -
http://www.overture.com
MSN
Advertising -
http://advertising.msn.com
7Search Advertising -
http://www.7search.com
The
above engines are the most expensive PPC providers, but not the
only ones. There are literally hundreds of other PPC providers on
the Internet, although most serve considerably less traffic.
5.
Directory Placements
With
directory websites, you are allowed to submit a 5-10 word headline
for your listing, and usually up to a 25-word description to be
placed with your link.
Directories are a good place to turn for highly targeted traffic,
since most users will navigate through the various categories to
find just the right websites to meet their needs.
A
few of the highest traffic directories are:
http://www.Yahoo.com
http://www.Dmoz.org
http://www.ExactSeek.com
You
can find another 200 specialized niche directories, search
engines, and article directories, by reviewing the
http://www.isedn.org
list of member websites.
IN
CONCLUSION...
If
you build your website and then sit around waiting for traffic to
come to you, your website will certainly fail.
To
be successful, do as other successful webmasters have done before
you --- build large numbers of links to your website and aim to
generate links that potentially offer real value.
Link
building is time consuming, but it does offer real potential for
the profitability of your website. Link building is not easy, but
it is essential and worthwhile.

Platt is the owner of

Bill
specializes in distributing free reprint articles for his
clients. Besides the exposure, traffic and sales that can be
generated from the publication of an article in an ezine, many of
his clients use reprint articles as part of their link building
strategy. TIP: Sales Copy is not an article. If you are able to
educate and inform your readers, then publishers and webmasters
are more likely to use your article in their ezine or website.

I
Had To Get Feeling WELL ENOUGH To Run Home Parties
And Open Houses With My Candle Business!!!
Nothing's more discouraging
than trying to work from home, but waking to constant pain or chronic
fatigue caused by a bout with arthritis or fibromyalgia or other chronic
ill health states. I KNOW! Taking the wisdom of the Amazon, the
advice of Dr. Perricone and others who specialize in fighting
inflammatory degeneration of
the body, and a life-giving blend of the ACAI berry (+ 18 other
highest-antioxidant fruits), I am recovering rapidly (!) and without
other drugs from another grave bout with rheumatoid degenerative
disease. Find out about this hope for new energy and a new and natural
way to fight chronic pain and disability. You can use it as "personal
fuel" for your own home party business, or you can add it to the line of
wonderful products you offer your customers as a
home-based distributor. With a $39 distributor start up package and a
few bottles of the product, you'll have what you need to buy and sell
wholesale. If you want to sell online, your personalize-able web site
like mine below is only another $9.99 per month.
