Hi All!
This week we do a couple of things out of the ordinary.
The first is to tell you about a program that we've joined, but not tell you why! You'll just have to find out for yourself.
The second is to include a free training course, called 'The 20-Day Boot Camp in Building Success and Good Fortune'. It may seem more in the area of Personal Development than Web Marketing, but trust me, it will help you.
Thought For the Week: "Today is the first day of the rest of your life."

Don't Let Them Guess
Earlier this year Consumer WebWatch Report looked at features US users consider "very important" on shopping websites. The results are interesting...
95% "A statement of all fees that you will be charged for using the site, including shipping costs, transaction fees and handling fees."
93% "A statement of how the site will use your name, address, credit card number, and other personal information you provide."
89% "An explanation of when you can expect delivery of your products or confirmation of your order."
88% "A statement of the site's policies for returning unwanted items or cancelled reservations."
81% "The email address, street address or telephone number where you can reach the site's staff about any problems."
76% "The site's private policy."
Human nature being what it is, many consumers will tend to be cynical about a site's policies, probably assuming the worst. Tell them what your policies really are, and you immediately remove some areas of doubt. You also look a lot more professional. Guess what all that does to conversion rates, and your bottom line?

View Your Web Pages At Different Screen Resolutions
Good web design practice, and common courtesy, suggest that you should make sure that your web pages look good at different monitor resolutions. After all, not everyone uses that great 19" monitor you have running at 1024x768, do they? In fact, the majority are using a much more humble 88x600. How can you see what they see? This handy tip was published in Monday's LockerGnome...
"A lot of Web designers have asked for a way to preview their site(s) in other screen resolutions the easy way, without keep changing their own monitor settings every time. Of course, one way is to resize the browser's window into the specific sizes - like 800x600 or 640x480 - using bookmarklets. Browsers like Opera 6.0 and Mozilla 1.0 have a zoom feature built- in, but Internet Explorer needs to rely on a CSS extension. Try adding this to your body element: "zoom: [value]" (replace the [value] with either integers or percentage values, sans quotes). Now, test your math skills! Calculate the percentages needed to emulate resolutions on your screen. For example, if you're at 1024x768 and you want to see your Web page in 800x600, use a 72% zoom value. To see your site in 640x480, use a 40% value."

E-Commerce Term of the Week: Compression A method for storing text, data, or images in fewer bits, it makes data smaller so less disk or file space is needed to represent the same information. Consequently, the information may be transmitted in less time. Compression takes place via one of several compression standards, including JPG, MPEG, GIF, TIF, and ZIP. -Source: NetLingo- The Internet Dictionary

FBI
Accused Of Passing Secrets To U.S. Washington, D.C. (SatireWire.com) � In an alarming breakdown of internal security, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation today was accused of passing classified, terrorism-related information to the United States. The leak, in which information was successfully passed from an agent in the field to headquarters, was believed to be a first in FBI history. FBI Director Robert Mueller, however, insisted the breach was detected before the classified documents could fall into the wrong hands, such as the CIA, the NSA, the Office of Homeland Security, the FAA, or any other U.S. law enforcement or security agency. But Mueller was forced to concede that the FBI itself had gained access to the files. He also admitted that the suspect likely had an accomplice on the inside. "The agent in question sent the information to headquarters, which in itself might not have aroused suspicion," said Mueller. "However, when a supervisor attempted to disseminate the information to Homeland Security, that tipped us off that something unusual was happening." The agent was immediately arrested and the supervisor placed on administrative leave. As for a motive, Mueller speculated it was financial. "Our initial investigation shows that an agent in the field was being paid to gather information, which he was then passing on to his superiors," he said. "In return for this subterfuge, the agent was furnished with a car and an annual salary. "We believe the FBI was the source of this funding," he added. Particularly distressing, Mueller said, was the bravado displayed by the alleged mole. "He did this quite in the open, sending the information through the proper channels, apparently confident that he would not get caught." The FBI promised to eventually blame the CIA for the incident. -Source: Copyright � 2002, SatireWire
