There are a lot of big and small companies advertising on the internet about thier search engine marketing services but not all of them deliver the kind of results that they promise and one of the companies who actually deliver is customermagnetism.com and they do have a proven track record with 90% of repeat sales which speaks for itself.

Traffic from search engines counts for the majority of traffic a good website gets and to get good traffic from search engines like google, Yahoo or msn your pages need to rank well for the keywords you are targeting and thats where customermagnetism.com comes to your help which they do by extensive grass root research of your website to start with and then starts thies massive link building campaign which they get from very reputed and reliable websites as opposed to link farms which is what you can expect from an over night seo company which come and go on the internet every day.

Better than Plentyoffish

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

I have seen a lot of online dating websites in recent times and all of them are paid dating sites which charge you a hell lot of money to become a member before you can even interact with other members and thats if they have any because as I know the inside story of most of these paid dating sites, Most of the female profiles are fake and ghost profiles as they call them in the industry and they are created to attract more members and as we all know you have to pay to become a member.

Sites like plentyoffish also charge thier members but there is one site which is free of cost and thye dont charge yuou a penny for any of thier services and that is Justsayhi.com.They dont have any reason to lie because they dont want your money so everything you find on thier website is all real deal as opposed to the sites that charge like plentyoffish and many others.

Just say hi is one website where I have seen so many people online anytime I log in and the best thing is I do see a lot of females on thier website.I am looking farward to have some fun are you?

New rule of the road: New Delhi bans drivers’ smoking

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

Smoking poses serious health risks. So does driving in New Delhi.And combining the two is deadly, according to two New Delhi judges who have barred smoking at the wheel, officials said. It is apparently the first such ban in the world.

Declaring “New Delhi roads dangerous to human life,” the city’s High Court imposed measures Monday aimed at deterring habitually bad drivers, including the smoking ban and a prohibition on using mobile phones while behind the wheel.

New Delhi’s traffic commissioner, Qamar Ahmed, welcomed the ruling, which takes effect April 9 in the city of 14 million. “The human mind cannot do two things simultaneously,” Ahmed said.

Those caught smoking while driving will be fined $32, a large sum by local standards. Offenders caught more than five times will have their licenses revoked, the court said. The same fines apply to using a mobile phone and the less well-defined offense of “dangerous driving.”

Many drivers in New Delhi saw anything that would control chaos on its roads - where many drivers regard red lights as suggestions - as a positive step.

The new codes are “a very good idea,” said Ankita Maniktala, 18. “Traffic is very difficult here; it’s frightening.”

New Delhi police spokesman Rajan Bhagat said police were “ready to enforce the court decision.” But drivers noted that with the capital’s notoriously corrupt traffic police, avoiding penalties would be easy.

New Delhi’s roads seem an unlikely place to pioneer road safety codes. The streets are choked with four million buses, trucks, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, auto-rickshaws, bicycle-rickshaws, and horse-drawn carts, as well as millions of pedestrians, free-roaming cows, and the occasional elephant.

That’s despite some two million people commuting daily on a metro rail introduced in parts of the capital in 2002.

The court said it made its ruling because the death toll on city roads had risen to more than 1,900 a year, and because traffic laws were largely ignored.

The law against smoking while driving in private vehicles appears to be the first of its kind, and could be closely watched in other nations.

Wireless Industry News Story

Wednesday, March 21st, 2007

Mobile phone industry is one of the fastest growing industries around the world and is not showing any signs of slowing down in the near future either. Companies like InPhonic are taking the online mobile phone industry to the next level as stated by washingtontimes.com in their article named InPhonic plan for growth connects Inphonic is a publicly traded company and has more then 400 employees working for them and they have websites like wirefly.com. In my opinion retail stores on high streets will be a thing of the past soon as they require a lot of money to maintain in addition to the additional staff they hire so they can stand there and smile at you when you enter their store without you realizing that its you who will be paying for that smile you just consumed ha ha ha. Its been more then four years since I bought a mobile phone at a retail store and since then I have been buying my phones online as it saves a lot of money and you can actually go through the specs and features of all the phones you like and choose the one which best suits your needs.Mobile phones are much more cheaper on the internet and the main reasons as far as I understand is that they don’t pay rents for highstreet stores and save a lot of money that way and pass on the benefit to their customers and the second reason which comes to my mind is that on the internet its much more easier to switch to another website by just tapping on the keyboard as opposed to walking down to another store physically or even driving long distances if there is no other stores nearby.John Sculley is doing a great job at InPhonic as some of you might know about his apple fame.

Farmer Clashes in India Claim 14 Lives

Thursday, March 15th, 2007

Farmers angry over plans to build an industrial park on their land torched a government office Thursday in a second day of unrest in eastern India that has claimed 14 lives.

Police responded with baton-charges and tear gas, dispersing protesters who quickly regrouped elsewhere.

The clashes mirrored earlier violence in the Nandigram area, which in January prompted the federal government to suspend plans to establish scores of Special Economic Zones to attract overseas investors with generous tax breaks.

Most of the zones, including the one that was to be set up in Nandigram, would be built on farmland.

On Thursday, about 2,000 farmers gathered outside a hospital where those injured a day earlier were being treated. They chanted angry slogans, marched toward a local government office and set fire to the building, authorities and witnesses said.

Villager Abdus Samad said police fired tear gas when people assembled near the administrative office.

On Wednesday, police fired on thousands of farmers who attacked officers with rocks, machetes and pickaxes. At least 10 people were killed by gunfire, and four others died from other injuries suffered in the violence, said the home secretary of West Bengal state, Prasad Ranjan Roy. Nandigram is in West Bengal.

Earlier, police said that all 14 killed had been shot, with 11 dying immediately or soon after being hit and three others succumbing to their wounds overnight.

“We had intelligence reports that police would face resistance, but we had no idea that the resistance would be so organized,” Roy said, according to The Press Trust of India. He added that 950 police were now in the Nandigram area and trying to restore order.

The shootings prompted widespread outrage in India’s capital, New Delhi, and in West Bengal.

“The thought uppermost on my mind, and that of all sensitive people is, ‘Was this spilling of human blood not avoidable?’” said West Bengal state Governor Gopal Krishna Gandhi, a grandson of Indian independence leader Mohandas Gandhi. The governor’s role is largely ceremonial.

In New Delhi, lawmakers from the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party and the Shiv Sena, two right-wing Hindu nationalist groups, shouted, “Communists are murderers” - a reference to the communist politicians who have ruled West Bengal for more than three decades. The outbursts forced the house to adjourned for the day, before any business could be conducted.

Meanwhile, the High Court in Calcutta, West Bengal’s capital, ordered India’s Central Bureau of Investigation to investigate the shootings.

The trouble in Nandigram erupted on Jan. 7 after the leak of the government plan to acquire 22,000 acres of land in the area, and to build a petrochemical plant and shipyard.

The hastily formed Bhumi Ucched Pratirodh, meaning Land Acquisition Resistance Committee in the region’s Bengali language, organized protests that quickly degenerated into violent clashes.

Vodafone paves way for India entry with Essar deal

Thursday, March 15th, 2007

Vodafone has secured operational control of India’s fourth-largest mobile company, Hutchison Essar, clearing the way for the British firm’s expansion into the fast-growing market.The deal, announced on Thursday, gives the Essar group an option to sell its 33 percent stake in Hutchison Essar to Vodafone for $5 billion between the third and fourth years of the deal’s completion, expected in the next 10-15 days.

Alternatively, the Indian conglomerate with interests in steel, oil and shipping could sell shares worth between $1 billion and $5 billion in the company, to be renamed Vodafone Essar, to Vodafone at an independent valuation.

Vodafone agreed to acquire a majority stake for $11.1 billion last month from Hong Kong’s Hutchison Telecommunications International Ltd following an auction in which it beat three rivals including Essar.

Essar had previously demanded joint management of the company and said it might seek to increase its stake, raising fears Vodafone’s plans in India would not run smoothly.

“It’s good the two companies have reached an amicable partnership agreement. The market can now move on to anticipate operational success rather than ownership debates,” said Dresdner Kleinwort analyst Robert Grindle.

Another potential irritant to Vodafone’s India plans appeared resolved as Hutchison announced it had provisionally agreed to pay $415 million to Essar in return for the Indian group’s cooperation in completing the deal.

“Under the settlement agreement, Essar will take all reasonable steps to ensure completion of the transaction and will refrain from initiating any action that may inhibit or delay the completion of the transaction,” Hutchison said.

Vodafone shares were 1.5 percent up at 136p by 1320 GMT.

Chief Executive Arun Sarin said he expected Vodafone Essar, which now ranks behind Bharti Airtel, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd and Reliance Communications, to become India’s top operator in three years.

“We have a strong springboard and we want to be number one by 2010. If (Vodafone Essar Chief Executive) Asim Ghosh can do it earlier, he can expect a good bonus,” Sarin told a news conference in New Delhi.

Sarin said he expected Vodafone Essar, which had 25.3 million users at the end of February, a 16 percent share, to raise that to 20-25 percent in the coming years.

Vodafone owns a 10 percent stake in Bharti, but will sell 5.6 percent back to Bharti in a parallel deal to the Hutchison Essar transaction. The group will continue to own a 4.4 percent stake in an unlisted Bharti holding company.
