Move over Apple, iTunes and iPhone, you have just been outdone. This is seriously one of the coolest technologies that I have seen yet. You’ve got to give props to Microsoft for taking the lead with the lastes touch screen technology. How you like them apples, Apple?
Mike McDonald’s tip of the day talks about some SEO plug-ins you may want to check out for your Firefox browser. We personally use these plug-ins and recommend them to anybody who can’t sleep at night without their fill of SEO data.
Before this video, GoDaddy was just another domain and hosting company trying to make it big. No longer is this a worry as they are the most recognized name in the business. It’s amazing what a little risk and creativity can do for a company. You can’t be afraid to take a chance every now and then. The question is, can they ever top this one?
According to a Burst Media survey, 72% of online consumers have utilized online videos while surfing the Internet. The shocker statistic of the day is that 58% of people aged 65+ have viewed, and continually, view videos online. Whoever says that there is still a gigantic generational gap with Internet usage needs to think again. People of all ages are catching up to different web technologies. The results of this survey should make you consider adding video features to your website, no matter what kind of product you are offering. Within several years it is probable that online video will not be an added feature offered by select sites…it will most likely be an Internet-wide standard.
Another suprising statistic from that survey is that 50% of viewers stop watching a streaming video, once they realize there is an online advertisement embedded. I can say that I am guilty of contributing to this statistic. There is nothing more annoying then wanting to see a story and having to sit through a brutally long advertisement. Take into account if you are planning to use videos on your website for marketing purposes. Deal without the extra advertising revenue and cut out the web commercials. You will benefit from more overal views in the end.
