Ezilon.com Launches Enhanced Regional Based Directories

Ezilon Directory has rolled out its improved regional directories, a targeted search service focused to assist business and online users to access information within specific regions.

Houston, TX (PRWEB) April 24, 2006 -- Ezilon Directory has rolled out its improved regional directories, a targeted search service focused to assist business and online users to access information within specific regions.

Ezilon.com, part of Mbrasilla Corporation, is a directory with search engine founded with the purpose of providing individuals and companies around the world with easy-to-access information on different continental regions that include: North America, Europe, Asia and Oceania.

Ezilon.com increases its market share in the Internet industry by sticking to its fundamental marketing niche (localizing directory search). "As the size of the Internet increases, so does the emphasis on niche contents and searches," says Charles Michael. Ezilon.com provides easy solutions to web based search issues. Often times Internet users would like to search for business or person(s) or just plain information within a certain area but until now this had not been an option. Users would need to sift through pages of results in order to find an appropriate listing. Ezilon.com simplifies this process by allowing users to search only for region specific information. Each region has its own individual website for each searching and all sites can be accessed from the individual search sites. Ezilon.com therefore provides that option for business and Internet public.

We also offer the same variety of search capabilities as major search engines, as well as free classified ads, headline news, soccer/football, country briefs and marketplace section providing information for interesting and relevant contents.

Any business or general website wishing to be included in Ezilon.com directory may submit their website for review and inclusion. Ezilon.com only accepts website submissions from around the world with information pertaining to regions interest. You are therefore encouraged to list your websites while the present offers last.

Our goal is to provide targeted localized quality information to the visitors seeking information pertaining to regions covered by Ezilon.com network of directories and search.

Click Fraud Detection Tool

Click Fraud Detection Tools increase ROI for pay per click clients.

Pottsville, PA (PRWEB) April 18, 2006 -- Click Fraud is a serious matter, in fact many pay per click clients actually factor in a fraud rate of 20% when allocating their budget. We know this because in some industries this horrific click fraud rate is the norm.

It makes it even more unacceptible when we request a refund when we know it's click fraud by the simple fact that that a click every 12 min and 30 seconds each 12 min and 30 seconds is not a 'normal human click pattern'.

We decided to fight back, but not using the normal pattern of complaining, we decided to find hard evidence.

Internally we built a BETA click fraud detection tool located at ( http://www.tabooclick.com ) and ran some of our clients though the system. The system detects click fraud using several methods. The first and most simple is just by detecting multiple clicks from the same computer, however the tool does not stop there. Tabooclick also does a series of browser checks and other type of pattern checks to see if it's a real human clicking on the ad, or just a spam click fraud bot.

Generally click fraud can be broken down into three distinct groups.

The type of click fraud that an individual clicks on a competitors ad then clears cache and does it again and again. Though this can be a problem, it's by no means the worst.

Automated Click Fraud is the real problem. It's when someone sets up a script that starts clicking on competitors ads to drive down the ROI for pay per click clients. This is a problem when it's your competitor driving down your ROI.

The worst of them all is similar to the automated click fraud, but this could be considered 'click fraud for profit'. It's when a criminal signs up to place pay per click ads on their site and the runs this script though their site. This is the worst of the worst for the fact that not only are they driving up your Pay per click charges, but they are getting paid to do such.

Tabooclick.com does catch the vast majority of this type of fraud, however the system does not stop fraud from taking place, instead it provides you with a report that gives you hard physical evidence to back up your claims to the search engines when requesting a refund. We are actually somewhat shocked that a small firm in Pottsville, Pa figured out how to detect click fraud for the most part, but the search engines didn't.

When we setup the tool for our clients we had to keep refining the process to catch click fraud while keeping legit visitors from having any problems.

We are confident enough to allow others to test the product as long as everyone understands that this product is in BETA meaning that there still are some bugs in the system that could theoretically wipe out any pay per click that is run though the system. So we STRONGLY suggest that use this only for keywords that are rife with fraud and with a budget that you can afford to lose. We are working to refine the product and we need feedback, but we don't need lawsuits so please take heed to the warning that the system is in VERY extreme BETA and please expect some issues to pop up while using the product.

If successful, the report provided should force the search engines to issue you a refund or at least raise red flags for you to see.

As it stands now, tabooclick.com can detect automated click fraud and multiple clicks.

The service is 100% free during the testing period and it owned by Yooter InterActive Marketing ( http://www.yooter.com )

Susan Bratton and Rovion Invite Interactive Marketing Industry to AdTech

Converging broadcast and broadband, online video spokesperson technology enables AdTech Content Chair to personally invite visitors to attend the conference.

Owings Mills, MD (PRWEB) April 12, 2006 -- Rovion Inc., the original creator and leading provider of online video spokespersons, has partnered with dmg world media’s ad:tech expositions to promote the company’s upcoming San Francisco conference by using Rovion’s proprietary inPerson technology.

inPerson videos starring ad:tech Executive Chair Susan Bratton will be running on the AdTech website, where Ms. Bratton informs visitors of the upcoming conference, and invites them to register for the two and a half day conference or as an expo only attendee. ad:tech will host its largest exposition to-date centered on the new theme “Connecting Globally: Markets in Motion” April 26 - 28, 2006 at San Francisco’s Moscone Center North.

“People come to ad:tech to learn about new technologies and trends in interactive marketing, so it makes perfect sense for us to partner with this innovative group on this promotion,” said Rovion CEO Len Ostroff. “A personal invitation from the conference’s organizer is hard to beat in terms of adding a personal touch to a website. We think this added layer of interactivity will boost ad:tech’s already unbeatable attendance.”

“We were quite impressed with the Rovion technology and it is a great fit for the ad:tech website,” said Paul Beckley, Show Director. “The inPerson videos are effective without being intrusive and we’re excited to be using this new technology to attract attendees to yet another great conference.”

This promotion follows a successful trial of the Rovion technology by ad:tech sister company iMedia Communications, which employed inPerson to promote the company’s editorial offerings and upcoming conferences earlier this year. During that promotion, 49% of iMedia site visitors watched the entire inPerson video, 3.07 clicked through for more information or to sign up and an astounding 35.74% interacted with the ad. Rovion’s inPerson product suite is a proprietary technology that operates much like the “green screen” technology used for special effects in both motion pictures and television, including virtually every TV weathercast in the US. Rovion brings this magical sensation to life on the Web, enabling its clients to present this unique, innovative and engaging technology directly to their existing and potential customers.

Advertisers Draw Fire for Using Undercover Marketing Tactics

As advertising has become advertising ad nauseam, and we are forever being pitched to, marketed to, and appealed to by someone trying to sell us something more advertisers are looking at new ways to deliver their message to you. This has resulted in a mix of marketing tactics that are drawing fire. Some are new versions of old techniques and some are very new. Consider that many advertisers are already paying your friends or in some cases even hiring actors to strategically engage you in their product- with or without your knowledge.

(PRWEB) December 4, 2005 -- As advertising has become advertising ad nauseam, and we are forever being pitched to, marketed to, and appealed to by someone trying to sell us something more advertisers are looking at new ways to deliver their message to you. This has resulted in a mix of marketing tactics that are drawing fire. Some are new versions of old techniques and some are very new. Consider that many advertisers are already paying your friends or in some cases even hiring actors to strategically engage you in their product- with or without your knowledge.

If the current trends hold true it’s almost certain that you’ll be the target of “undercover” or “referral marketing” as more companies use undercover marketing and more of your friends will start trying to make a few extra bucks referring people to the products that offer them commissions for making those referrals.

Undercover Marketing

Whether you like it or not, undercover marketing is here to stay. Whether you know it or not, it may already be a part of your life.

Consider this. The last time a friendly tourist asked you to take their picture with an impressive new camera or an attractive woman at the bar said you could buy her a drink; they both may have been “working”. These are examples of what is being called Undercover Marketing. In these examples the company paid people to pose as tourists or bar patrons respectively. The “tourists” job was to show as many people as possible all the features of a new camera that Sony coming out with. The models were paid to look good of course, but you won’t see them holding anything but a Sky Vodka. Not when their “working” anyway.

One of the larger companies in this industry is Big Phat Promotions. They’ve drawn both protest and attention for their unique marketing practices that they now employ in 30 cities across the United States and Canada. The company defends their tactics as "spontaneous" and "virile" approaches to product promotion. Critics however, argue that paying actors to target consumers in these settings is unethical.

Even over seas the New South Wales government has enacted legislation preventing tobacco companies from using similar undercover marketing practices.

Adam Salacuse, CEO and President of Alt Terrain, LLC, a Boston-based agency specializing in alternative promotion services, stresses undercover campaigns should only be used in conjunction with larger, more traditional advertising campaigns. "It is always best to be honest with people and if used properly, alternative marketing can be a unique and relevant experience that the consumer will always remember."

Gary McCarron, Asst. Communications Professor at Simon Fraser University, Vancouver, says the public is already immune to most mainstream advertising and new research indicates that advertising that doesn't seem like advertising, is the new way to reach our jaded minds.

McCarron warns that if advertising becomes so sneaky that it is unrecognizable from the everyday experiences of defenseless consumers, it will damage corporate credibility and the resulting state of distrust could have an extremely negative effect on social interaction.

Referral or Network Marketing
Do the words MLM, Network Marketing or multi-level-marketing ring a bell? These words all describe companies that pay you commissions for referring people to their products.

MLM or Network Marketing is back. The MLM Direct Selling Associate now reports that nearly 75% of all Americans have now used or been presented with a product from a Network Marketing company. The most well known, International, Network Marketing Companies are Amway (now Quixtar), Mary Kay and Life Force International.

The allure of Network Marketing or MLM to consumers is the massive amounts of money that some in the industry claim to make. These companies pay you a commission on all the products you sell. They also pay you commissions on the products that anyone you refer to the company, sells. If the people you refer refer others, you earn commissions on the purchases of those people too.

Sound like a pyramid? There’s a difference. Really. Network Marketing has exploded in the last 20 years since Amway fought their landmark case making and distinguishing the MLM or multi-level commission structure as legal and separate from a illegal pyramid structures.

MLM or Network Marketing companies offer you and your friends of course, commissions for referring people to their products. These companies now sell every kind of product you can imagine.

Marketing expert Chris Tinney is the founder of Best MLM Business (www.BestMLMBusiness.com) and MLM Forums (www.MLMForums.com) and eBusiness Bonanza (http://ebusinessbonanza.com) says many in his industry used undercover marketing in the past but have found parts of it turned the public off, “Too many people have memories of going somewhere with a friend only to be surprised to find themselves front and center at an opportunity meeting for some kind of home based business.”

He says Network Marketing still teaches people to go into social settings to pitch their products, however, they’ve learned it works much better if you’re up front about whom you are and what you’re doing. Tinney claims that if a marketer has to lie they’ve already made a mistake in choosing the social setting. He says this is the most important step. Once in that setting he says to be upfront about the product you represent.

Tinney claims that by being in places where people are predisposed to want your products and being “upfront” about it, that they'll approach the marketer and initiate the interaction. He claims this is much different than what the public perceives as undercover marketing.

As competition to reach consumers increase undercover and referral based marketing is sure to become more and more a part of our lives. The challenge will be for marketers to use these tactics in such a way that the don’t alienate the very consumers they’re hoping to win over.

New PQ Media Research: Blog, Podcast, RSS Advertising Grow Fastest Among Alternative Media, Surging 198% in 2005, and Forecast to Grow 145% in 2006 Study Finds Podcast Advertising Will Be Larger Than Blog Market by 2010

Combined U.S. spending on blog, podcast and RSS advertising bolted 198.4% to $20.4 million in 2005, and is expected to grow another 144.9% to $49.8 million in 2006, according to exclusive research released today by PQ Media, a custom media research firm.

Stamford, Conn., April 11, 2006 – Combined spending on blog, podcast and RSS advertising bolted 198.4% to $20.4 million in 2005, and is expected to grow another 144.9% to $49.8 million in 2006, according to exclusive research released today by PQ Media, a custom media research firm. But podcast advertising, nonexistent until 2004, is expected to be a larger market than blog advertising by 2010, according to Blog, Podcast and RSS Advertising Outlook, the first of five installments in PQ Media’s Alternative Media Research series. This groundbreaking series, the culmination of more than six months of primary research, is the first source to define, size and structure the burgeoning alternative media sector.

Blog advertising accounted for 81.4%, or $16.6 million, of total 2005 spending on blog, podcast and RSS advertising, collectively known as user-generated online media. But the blog segment will comprise only 39.7%, or $300.4 million, of overall expenditures in 2010. Podcast advertising, meanwhile, reached $3.1 million in 2005, and is projected to grow at a compound annual rate of 154.4% to $327.0 million in 2010, when it will be a larger market than blog advertising. RSS advertising, non-existent until mid-2005, generated $650,000 in 2005.

“Blog, podcast and RSS advertising are being driven by some of the same factors boosting the growth of the overall alternative media sector: continued audience fragmentation, the perceived ineffectiveness of traditional advertising, and the elusive but coveted 18-to-34-year-old demographic,” said Patrick Quinn, president of PQ Media. “Blog, podcast and RSS advertising have demonstrated an ability to reach younger demographics as well as influentials, and the media tend to be highly engaging. These are attractive trends to brand marketers that are focused on return on investment.”

The relatively small size of these markets is an indication of the newness of the media, the lack of standard metrics and various technology issues, Quinn added. “As advertising networks become more effective, user engagement escalates, and the industry works through its technology and measurement challenges, we expect user-generated media to grow at triple-digit rates over the next five years,” said Quinn.

Technology, auto and media brands are the most active in user-generated media advertising, accounting for more than half of total advertising spending in 2005, with the food & beverage and apparel categories rounding out the top five. The technology, auto and media categories will continue to generate more than half of all advertising in 2010.

Total spending on user-generated online media is forecast to grow at a compound annual rate of 106.1% from 2005 to 2010, reaching $757.0 million in 2010, according to Blog, Podcast and RSS Advertising Outlook. By comparison, the overall alternative media industry including, among others, markets such as branded entertainment, digital out-of-home advertising, mobile marketing and video-on-demand marketing, is projected to grow at a compound annual rate of 14.8% in the five-year period to $253.7 billion in 2010.

PQ Media’s Alternative Media Research Series will also include reports covering the overall alternative advertising and marketing industry, including all 22 alternative media segments, and the first report to size and forecast the global market for branded entertainment, among others. These publications are available solely through PQ Media’s website at www.pqmedia.com. An executive summary of Blog, Podcast and RSS Advertising Outlook is available online at http://www.pqmedia.com/blog-podcast-rss-advertising.html.

MySpace Editor Surge: Rich Young Webmasters

The MySpace phenomenon has allowed Webmasters to net over $1,000,000 per year in less than four months.

(PRWEB) April 7, 2006 -- MySpace, a social networking phenomenon, has opened up many opportunities for Webmasters as young as 18 years old. Alexa, a Web site traffic analyzer has consistently ranked MySpace in the top ten worldwide ranking. This volume has caused the demand for MySpace profile editor Web sites to explode.

Young Webmasters have taken this opportunity to monetize that traffic and open up revenue channels on a whole new level. Zobbler.com, a Web site of only three months of age, is up for sale on BuySellWebsite.com for $785,000. MySpaceSupport.com, six months old, was previously listed for over $1,000,000. These Web sites earn money through advertising mediums such as Google Adsense and Yahoo Publisher Network each time a user clicks on an ad.

While it seems like these sites are popping up left and right, the amount of users seeking such resources is much greater and can yield high traffic and revenue income for Web masters. "I had my site up for just a few days and I was already receiving thousands of hits. It's simply a way for me to make some extra cash, but the money coming in is much more than I expected" says MySpaceGrill.com owner - 21 years old.

Todays young Webmasters are tomorrow's innovators. Something as simple as a profile editor Web site has allowed these youngsters a solid income flow that can be used for future Web sites and ventures, but how long will this last? It is only time before MySpace itself offers such a service which could cause the ultimate demise to the hundreds of MySpace profile editor sites.

Indian B-school Management Student to become a Millionaire

A Management Student of Ravishankar University, Raipur (India) is determined to become a millionaire by the end of this year. He has launched www.indianpixeladvert.com a pixel advertising website.

Raipur, India (PRWEB) April 5, 2006 -- The Indian management schools are booming with high salaries nowadays. The B-schools students are also following the suit. Inspired by the success of the website started by a student in the UK.

Mr. Naveen George has also started a website with same features selling pixels. Apart from big corporations, this site is focusing on small developing companies as well. Naveen from a small town in Kerala is in the 1st year of his Management studies at Ravishankar University, Raipur.

“The site is very simple to understand. I’m selling each pixel for Rs. 15 for a period of 5 years. The site consists of 10,000 blocks and each block is divided into 100 pixels. Anyone who wish to purchase has various payment options”, says Naveen

The idea can be described as simple but is a strong way of advertising. Today India is one of the growing market allover the world and the online trades reaching millions. The pixel advertising is becoming more and more necessary.

The benefits for the company purchasing are they get advertised as the site gets advertised. They get more traffic than they get today. Lots of media attention will add to the advertising. Paper/Banner advertising costs a fortune compared to this pixel site and moreover they don’t put the advertisement for 5 years.

Naveen says "I have new innovative ideas and would like them to put in practice”. Though this is a very tough prospect for Naveen, he is positive and is confident to come out with good result.

He has also announced prizes of Rs 50000 for 5 lucky advertisers who will be selected by the lotto system once the site is sold out.

A tough nut to crack in India though. Our wishes to Naveen to prove that it can be done again.
