1. Make your reader visualize they have already bought your
product in your ad. Tell them what results they have gotten and
how it makes them feel. They’ll already become emotionally
attached before they buy.
2. Turn your ad into an article. It could be a story, or how-to
article. This will lead them into your ad without them knowing
it’s an ad. They’ll already be interested when they get to your
sales pitch.
3. Make sure you show your reader that they are getting a
bargain. Tell them the usual price you sell your product for is
$99. Then tell them if they order today they can buy it for
$69.95.
4. Direct your ad headline to your target audience. Your
readers will feel important and belong to a select group of
people who buy your product. For example; “Attention!
Accountants, Discover A New Way To Increase Your Client Base!”
5. Tell your reader how fast they can receive your product or
service in your ad. Their buying decision may be based on how
fast they can receive your product. They may need it by a
certain deadline.
6. Use bullets to highlight your product or services benefits.
Benefits are the key to selling anything, make them standout in
your ad. You can use dots, dashes, or circles to highlight them.
7. Give a money back guarantee that surpasses a normal one.
Instead of the normal timed guarantee, give them extra back.
Tell them they can keep the free bonus or give them double their
money back.
8. Tell your reader they’ll receive surprise bonuses. This’ll
raise your reader’s curiosity and make them want to buy so they
can find out what the surprise bonuses are.
9. Let your reader know this specific package will not be
offered again. You must create urgency so people buy now. You
may always sell the same product but not with the same bonuses
or price.
10. Give them a couple tips in your ad that will help them with
their problem. This will give your business credibility and gain
your readers trust to buy your products or services.

There has been a technology on the horizon for quite some time, and now it is here. High Definition movies will be available mid 2006 in two formats: Blu-Ray and HD DVD. These two formats both offer similar features on the same sized disc, but they have no plans to be compatible in the same movie player. This has created a split in the movie industry and companies are taking sides.
Blu-ray technology was developed by Sony who has a history for creating incompatible products like Beta-Max video tape (against VHS) and Memory Stick flash memory (against SD). A Blu-Ray Disc is simply the same as a DVD, but the information is more tightly packed together. This was made possible by using a more precise laser to read the disc. The blue-violet laser beam replaces the typical red beam of past technology like DVD and CD formats. The wavelength of the blue-violet laser beam is shorter, allowing it to be focused onto a smaller area. That way the information can be more tightly packed. Blu-Ray claims it can fit five times more information on one disc than there is available on a conventional DVD. This extra space makes it possible to fit HD quality movies and sound that will not fit on currently available DVDs. Blu-Ray players will also be backward compatible, which means that they will play CDs and DVDs as well. It will not support the HD DVD format.
HD DVD uses almost the same technology as Blu-Ray, but it is not as compressed. This only allows for about three times more capacity than a DVD can hold. This is still sufficient space for HD quality movies, and HD DVD promises no difference in picture/sound quality. The technology was created by Toshiba, NEC and Sanyo. Recently, Intel and Microsoft have backed HD DVD which will help in the computer integration of HD DVD. HD DVD players will also be backward compatible with CDs and DVDs.
The two are very similar technologically, however, Blu-Ray seems to have an edge on marketing their product. More studios and electronic companies are using the Blu-Ray format. Blu-Ray Discs also offer more capacity that could carry them further in the long run. There is skepticism about there being two formats, but in a free market society competition is what drives companies to offer better quality at a fair price. This is a sizable advantage for consumers and it will keep the video media industry from having a monopoly on a high demand product. If you are going to shell out $500+ for a player, go with Blu-Ray.

Why, on your web pages of course. Ok, just kidding. The real question should be: “Is there really any truth to the rumors that where you place those Google AdSense ads can actually improve response?” According to my best information, the answer to that question is: Yes.
Google’s own AdSense experts say that that there is a direct correlation between the placement of the AdSense ads and the resulting clickthrough.
When ads are placed in “content zones”, rather than in “advertising zones”, response rates on Google AdWords goes up. There are also indications showing that ads appearing on the right side of the page get clicked more than ads appearing on the left side.
Advertising analysts with degrees in human behavior and psychology have spent thousands of man-years (people-years?) studying how people read printed and Internet content and what it takes to get them to respond to ads. While some of these studies are proprietary, or are only available to anyone with $10,000 or more to spend on a copy, other studies have been made public and can be read by anyone who is interested.
Google themselves has released some relevant information which is focused directly on increasing your Google AdSense response. You can read their findings Here
Of course, all of the studies in the world aren’t worth a hill of beans if the findings don’t work on your web site. That’s why it is important to test, test and test again. Experiment with your Google AdSense placement and track the results over a period of time. Google provides response tracking tools in your AdSense control panel. Learn how to use them. As you begin to see what may be only subtle differences in response, you’ll be able to determine what works best for your particular site. But don’t get complacent. What’s working for you now might not work next month if you change your site design or content.
One of the most important factors in determining placement of your ads is the type of content that your site delivers. If you are primarily an e-commerce site, and you have a lot of pictures and ad copy for your own products competing for attention against AdSense ads, then it is going to be a particularly tough challenge getting any kind of decent Google AdSense clickthrough. It is situations like this that require very thorough testing and a lot of trial and error.
Blogs seem to have a lot of success generating high response rates to Google AdSense listings. Perhaps it’s because blog readers realize that ad revenue is the only way that their favorite blogmaster can keep the lights on, so the readers think of clicking on ads as a way to make a donation.
Regardless of what the experts say, your best bet is to tailor your Google AdSense ad placement to what your own experience shows works best for you. In the end, you’re the only expert who matters.
