Author: Dont Send Small Bits Of Text Via Email In Microsoft Word Documents
Sure emailing your Microsoft Word documents is easy. Sure you do it all the time. And most likely it’s just as sure that you didnt know about the many problems related to the emailing of Word documents. Allow me to explain.
Though emailing Word documents to your friends and colleagues is usually a perfectly appropriate thing to do it really is best to use caution and to not assume that everyone will be able to read or even open your Word files. Why use caution? Several reasons:
- The message will likely be larger than it really needs to be. This is because Word documents are BIG. Why should you care? You should care because youre essentially forcing your recipients to receive and open oversized documents. Also emails with larger attachments take longer to send and longer to download.
- It’s possible that your recipient might not have Word. For example many people read their emails on their Treos Blackberries or cell phonesnone of which have Word.
- Many email programs wont allow Word documents to be opened directly and some won’t even allow Word documents to be saved to disk on account of the unfortunatelyfartoocommon rampant virusspreading that can be done via Word documents.
- Emails with Word attachments are much more likely to be filtered and marked as spam or potential viruses; meaning that its entirely possible your email wont even make it through to your recipient.
If there’s no need to send content in a Word document then it’s best to not do it. The important piece of information to take away here is that if youre sending just a small bit of information via email in a Word document its usually a better practice to simply paste your Word documents text directly into the body of your email.

Domains And Subdomains
There are ways to increase your exposure with the power of subdomains but first we need to look at what domains and subdomains are.
What Are Domains?
Domains we are all familiar with. They are our URL which is the full http address. While the Domain name is the name of our website. Keep in mind that in the past theses two where interchangeable and still are with virtual hosting. If you do not have this type of hosting you will be dealing with the fact that there are more websites than there are servers. Many things have changed over the years with so many websites out there now on the internet.
How Does A Domain Name System Work?
The name consists of tow or more labels separated by dots. To the left the label specifies a subdomain.
What Are Subdomains?
This is an extension of your existing working domain. It is however separate from the domain that it extracts from.
What this means is that a subdomain is considered as it own site.
Why Use A Subdomain?
Some people create subdomains for niches. Others use them to load images that coincide with their main site There are some businesses that use them to split their departments.
Many uses can be found and the benefits are that you dont have to start another website thus incurring another expense. Another benefit is that search engines will count the subdomain as a separate site causing more exposure.
How Do You Create A Subdomain?
Use the topic of your website domain name in your subdomain so that they relate to one another. Go to your web hosting administration panel to create your subdomain.
Let us take a website address such as www.lady.com/dress
The subdomain would then become www.dress.lady.com
Note: this is an example and I am not promoting this site. It is for informational purposes only.
Did you notice the change of the dot and the placement of it?
Most of your hosting will help you with this process or you can purchase some simple software to aid you with this. If you are doing multiple subdomains I recommended that you purchase the software as this can become tedious.
Important Notes:
You should have at least 4 pages on your subdomain for them to appear as having substantial content for the search engines
Also keep in mind that this is like any other website. You still must use keywords content placement and submit to search engines etc. All of these factors must come into play.
You get the idea!

How To Make Serious Money With Email
Youve probably heard it said a thousand times the key is in having a good list. A good list will bring you more traffic and increase your income significantly. But unfortunately many people do not know how to build a list. And others wonder whether it is actually possible in todays CannSpam environment. Well it IS possible and you dont need to resort to tricks schemes or scams. Its all about doing your homework and consistently following the basics over and over again.
Before starting any online venture especially one with an email marketing program you must set clear realistic goals. Failure to have a precise realistic objective is a frequent cause of online failure. Some people think that they can put up a website and then just sit back and make tons of money. When it doesnt happen they get discouraged and quit. Make sure your goals are realistic.
To build a good responsive list you have to develop a long lasting healthy relationship with your subscribers. You do this by sending them plenty of free stuff and good high quality information. By doing this your subscribers will open and read your mails.
Occasionally send out emails that talk about the benefits of products that you are promoting. But never use hard sell tactics as this will only turn people off people and increase the number of people who unsubscribe. Use an easy soft sell approach when recommending products. Word your email like you would if you were talking to a trusted friend.
Another problem in getting your emails to your subscribers is the sophistication of spam filters. Certain words found in the subject line and body of your email will cause these filters to reject your message and place in a junk file. These emails will never even be seen by your subscribers. To get around these filters you can use software to eliminate or mask these trigger words. So get working on that list and make some money!
