			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mi esposa me dio esta única mirada (que yo pude entender) al decirle que acabe de comprar 3 nombres de dominios. Sé que ella estaba pensando lo mismo que muchas personas piensan y preguntan.</p>
<p>Luego de la mirada me dice, para que cara compras mas dominios por qué no corres todo desde <a href="http://www.dataviking.com/">http://www.dataviking.com</a> que es nuestra compañía de alojamiento y diseño.</p>
<p>Muchas personas me hacen la misma pregunta y por eso voy a compartir contigo hoy la razón por la cual yo lo hago y porque tú tienes que tener varios nombres de dominio.</p>
<p>La pregunta es 1 solo dominio o varios?</p>
<p>Ya que tu hayas establecido tu producto o servicio en tu pagina web. El próximo paso lógico es traer más tráfico para aumentar las ventas o puedes crear variaciones de tu mismo producto o servicio usando nombres de dominios con palabras claves.</p>
<p>Mucho tiempo atrás todo comerciante podía hacer dinero siendo generalista, hoy día hay que tener un mercado específico y esto es lo que tener múltiples dominios te permite hacer.</p>
<p>Por ejemplo:</p>
<p>En mi página de <a href="http://www.creamanejacrece.com">http://www.creamanejacrece.com</a> yo ofrezco coaching y tutorías de mercadeo entre otras a un costo de $197 mensuales el mismo material lo puedo utilizar para otro mercado donde solo necesitan técnicas de mercadeo http://www.tutoriasdemercadeo.com con un costo de $27 mensuales</p>
<p>En mi compañía de <a href="http://www.dataviking.com">http://www.dataviking.com</a> yo ofrezco backup de información el año pasado abrimos <a href="http://www.puertoricodatastorage.com">http://www.puertoricodatastorage.com</a> donde nuestro mercado es solo en Puerto Rico. Es el mismo producto con un nombre de dominio diferente, un nombre clave.</p>
<p>Al tu multiplicarte y enfocarte en nichos mas pequeños usando nombres de dominios con palabras claves podrás hacer ventas mas rápidas estratégicamente.</p>
<p>Al final del día lo que importa es que tu cuenta de banco se siga llenando, no debe importar si te llegan de 1, 2 o 10 páginas. Lo importante es que te llegue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Don’t choose manage website services and loose a ton of time and money. See my conversation with a few guys this week.</p>
<p>In a conversation with a few guys today, the website topic came out. I of course I jump right in. I believe in good online services that’s why I own <a href="http://www.dataviking.com">DataViking.com</a>, what I call the online one stop shop, one of the services we provide is manage web hosting for small and medium business.</p>
<p>One of the guys said;</p>
<p>I’m with X company because I only pay four dollars per month, you guys need to switch.</p>
<p>I smile (like always) and reply; do you make money from your website?</p>
<p>He said, yes o course.</p>
<p>I said; we at <a href="http://www.dataviking.com">DataViking.com</a> backup all websites to a different server for better protection. Is your hosting provider a proactive company, are they backing up your data on the daily basis to an outside server or at least tell me if you don’t know are backing up your files?</p>
<p><em>I knew the answer, because for the most part is the same.</em></p>
<p>He replies; I don’t know if they backup my data and NO I haven’t back up my files either.</p>
<p>This is the normal scenario in most cases, most of you don’t worry about it until the website is hacked or has crashed. For the most part web hosting companies either provided backups for an extra fee or if they are backing up your data they charge you a fee for the data restore.</p>
<p>Let’s assume your site makes $500 per day, your site is don’t for 3 days minimum, that’s $1500 in loss because you want it to save 6 dollars per month.</p>
<p>DO the math; is your time, loss of money, potential loss of customers when they know you data have been compromise worth 6 dollars savings per month to you?</p>
<p>Not to me…</p>
<p>Do yourself a favor pick the right <a href="http://www.dataviking.com">web hosting</a> company today!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>That’s right, Uncle Sam actually allows businesses to deduct business gifts to customers and clients, BUT there are rules and limitations.  Especially in this economy, businesses are in serious competition with one another for the clients and potential clients out there, and giving gifts to woo those customers and clients is a time-tested method that can truly give a business an edge over its competitors.  The IRS does NOT give businesses carte blanche, though on what or how expensive a gift may be, and to whom it can be given.</p>
<p>In general, a business can deduct up to $25 annually for business gifts that are given directly or indirectly to any single person.  Now this $25 limit doesn’t include incidental costs, such as engraving, embroidery, or some sort of embellishment on the gift that doesn’t significantly increase the value of the gift.  It also doesn’t include packaging, insuring, or mailing of the gift, again, as long as they don’t add substantially to the value of that gift.  Gift-wrapping, for example, is typically considered to be an incidental cost.  If, however, you put the gift into a basket, box, or other such container that is substantial compared to the value of the gift, the item may not be considered incidental and the amount of the gift in excess of $25 would not be deductible.</p>
<p>Now don’t think you can outfox the IRS if you give a $25 gift and your spouse gives a $25 gift to the same person or business and have both be deductible.  In this situation, the IRS treats you and your spouse as a single taxpayer and there is a $25 TOTAL deduction limit for gifts to a single recipient.  This is the case, REGARDLESS of whether or not you and your spouse own separate businesses, are employed by completely different employers, or even if you each have a separate and independent connection with the recipient.</p>
<p>But the IRS also makes some exceptions for gifts that are not subject to the $25 gift limit.  One exception is if that gift costs $4 or less.  A second is if the gift has your or your business’ name or logo permanently imprinted on the gift.  In addition, if the gift is one of many identical items that are widely distributed such as pens, coffee mugs, calendars, etc., it is an exception to the $25 maximum gift rule.</p>
<p>Finally, if your gift is a sign, display, or other promotional material that will be used and/or displayed on the business premises of the recipient, then it also is an exception to the $25 gift rule.</p>
<p>When it comes to gifting rules, one of the questions I get asked most frequently is whether or not giving a client or customer tickets to an entertainment or sporting event is considered a gift, and subject to the $25 deduction limits, or an entertainment expense, and subject to the 50% deductibility rule for entertainment expenses.  Well, here comes my lawyer answer, it depends.  In general, any item that might be considered EITHER a gift or an entertainment expense will be considered by the IRS to be a gift and subject to the $25 limitation</p>
<p>Now there is an option.  If your business gives a gift to a client of tickets to an event and no one from your business attends the event, you have the option of choosing whether you want to classify it as a gift or entertainment expense.  This choice should really be a mathematical one.  Do the math and decide whether or not you get the better deduction by taking a flat $25 gift deduction, or if the 50% of the total cost would be a better deal for you.</p>
<p>Remember, that if you or someone from your business attends the event, this is a moot point and it MUST be treated as an entertainment expense and is subject to the 50% deductibility rule.</p>
<p>Giving gifts at this, or any other time of year is a fun and rewarding experience for the gift givers and the recipients.  If you can deduct all or part of that gift as well… then it just makes for an even happier holidays come tax time!  Who doesn’t like to give a gift that gives right back to you?  This is just one of the MANY, MANY ways that you can learn to keep more of your hard-earned money where it belongs, in your POCKET!</p>
