So how many of you got hit by Google?

by Tricia

The other day when I saw sites across the board having their page rank lowered by Google I started to not feel quite as bad about losing some of my page rank. Hey, after all, it seems just about everyone’s in the same boat!

There’s been a lot of speculation as to what caused Google to hit so many sites by lowering their page ranks. Everything from speculation as to whether it was caused by paid links or networking too many sites and so on.

I run one of the Do follow blogrolls. Well, I think the only do follow blogroll and I’ve had a few people decide to drop off the list as a result of the google hits. Personally I don’t think being do follow has anything to do with all of our PR loses. I mean, I’ve been a do follow blogger for almost two years and this is the first time I’ve ever taken a google hit!

Well, ok, the last update my html based website went from a PR5 to a PR4 but I believe that was mostly because I hadn’t updated the site with any new articles for a long while. Hey … it’s got about 1000 pages – how much more can I write about exotic pet keeping on the site anyway? Really!

But this time around? Every single site I own, even ones that I do not sell links of any kind on have been hit!

Oh well, like I said, it looks like we’re all in the same boat. It will be interesting to see what happens if Google ever gets around to doing a proper page rank update.

The trouble is, if they really are upset with those that sell links or who have committed some other kind of infraction against Google … well that’s just going to make people get better at hiding what they are doing. I can see people starting to use code or cipher to encrypt their links to mask what they are doing.

Don’t you see something like that happening too? I mean, no one’s just going to give in and stop making the money that they have been just because of Google are they?

I could have saved money if I’d used CouponChief

by Tricia

Earlier this month I bought some computer related accessories. I think I got a good deal on them, but if I’d really been a savvy shopper I would have thought to check for coupons or coupon codes at CouponChief first. You know those old V8 commercials where people are banging their hand to their head saying “I could have had a V8!”? Well I’m doing that right about now, but I’m saying I could have got a better deal!

You see, CouponChief.com has listings for thousands of popular stores. Not just stores that sell computer goods either. They’ve got stores listed that sell everything from clothing to home decor, to business supplies to pet products and so on.

Now that I’ve remembered about CouponChief I decided to play devils advocate to see if I might have found some coupon codes for the external 380 gb drive that I purchased, and for the HP 12 cell lithium battery that I needed to get for my laptop so that I could work on it for longer periods of time while it was unplugged.

You know what? I found Best Buy coupon deals that could have saved me 20% on SimpleTech external and portable hard drives. That’s not the brand I purchased, but had I known I might have taken a good look at that companies portable hard drives.

I also found Circuit City deals that could have saved me money on some of the computer related items I’ve purchased recently too.

I think I’m going to put a sticky note on my computer monitor reminding me to check CouponChief.com first before I buy any more things online.

Bill Collector in a Box makes it easy for small business to manage debtors

by Tricia

If you own a small business and you’ve been frustrated with the process of trying to collect money from clients who owe you money you might be interested in Bill Collector In A Box by Marauder Corporation. This debt collection software has been created especially for small businesses.

Bill Collector in a Box assists small business owners with the tools to collect debts without the assistance of an attorney or an outside collection agency. Small businesses that use this software will no longer find themselves selling overdue accounts to debt collection agencies as they’ll be able to manage the debt with the help of Bill Collector in a Box.

This software is suitable for any type of merchant from landlords to auto service, doctors, dentists – any kind of business. It’s meant to take the hassle out of bill collection.

You can send an unlimited amount of debt specific collection letters directly from Bill Collector in a Box. There are pre-formulated letters for any kind of debt and all of the letters have been viewed by an attorney to ensure that the information within each letter is legal.

Nationwide Capital Recovery will handle your debtors for you when you use the 1 Click Credit Reporting feature. Any creditor can report an outstanding debt to the credit bureaus for 7 years. Just with one click. Included in this feature is a demand letter from the supporting collection agency, Nationwide Capital Recovery, along with a payment stub and payment envelope addressed to the small business that the debtor owes.

Nationwide Capital Recovery has a full range of debt collection services and in conjunction with their services a small business will have success in securing payment on their overdue accounts quite quickly.

If a client passes a bad check the check writer can easily be reported to the Shared Check Authorization Network. It costs $5 to report a bad check writer to the database and once a business does this the information regarding their debt will be in the database for five years. This means that unless they remit payment to the business for the debt they owe they will get a message every time they try to write a check or open a new bank account at one of the 70,000 Shared Check Authorization Network locations. The message will let them know that they won’t be removed from the database until they pay their debt. There are many large retailers and banks within this network so that $1.50 will be well spent as it should cause the debtor quite a bit of trouble.

The software also makes it easy to manage contacts. There are two levels of skip tracing that will assist as small business in locating customers that have relocated.

The Basic Skip feature will assist small business owners with the collection of the debtors most recent address and place of employment by gathering information from the debtors credit file. It also lists up to three phone numbers.

The Advanced Skip feature provides a small business with a report on their debtor that includes the clients names, date of birth, social security number, home address and any other residential listings, home work and cell phone numbers, criminal, property and bankruptcy information and the names addresses and phone numbers of up to 10 relatives of the debtor. All of this information is manually verified by a private investigator and returned to the small business owner by email.

This invaluable software can be purchased for $99. Accounts that are forwarded to the collection agency, Nationwide Capital Recovery, will have a 38% commission applied to all amounts collected. Having said that, Nationwide Capital Recovery states that if their product doesn’t pay for itself at least twice in the first year they will refund the entire purchase cost of the software. That makes the software certainly worth a try. Small businesses can stop writing off outstanding debts and start collecting some of the money that they are owed.
