    MacBook Air or Dell XPS 13 Laptop for programming?

    HOT! OFF-TOPIC 
    If you are more comfortable with Windows, go with that. There's some benefit to Mac (it uses Unix and often people doing tutorials will be using it or Linux so you can just type what they do in the command line). In Windows you MAY have to look up a command or two since what they type won't be...

    My new website has been hacked twice!

    Considering you had developers working on it I'm presuming it is hosted on a private server and not a shared server? It could be developers but I wouldn't jump to that conclusion...as for why, like Dan Cardone said...there are lots of people out there who do that "for the lulz" and just cause...

    Website Evaluation

    A dedicated IP will basically help with the e-mail issue (if sending out business e-mails from the domain name etc). In the sense of increasing security it won't do much, though. (EXCEPT if it were required to get a SSL certificate, which you will need for e-commerce - but with a big host like...

    What are the differences between traditional marketing and digital marketing?

    MARKETING WEB DESIGN 
    There's no real difference... Digital marketing is a subset. It has more ready access to larger amounts of data - and possibly cheaper testing of messages. The internet opened up the ability to market to a large amount of people to the average person. But it's really not much different. I'm...

    Website Evaluation

    Yes, there is. The primary one is really security. If you are on shared hosting then you lose large amounts of control. You could have the best security on your own site and it doesn't matter - a hacker will just hack you by going through some other random person who has a hobby site with...

    What Paid Advertising Provides Highest ROI

    MARKETING 
    What is the definition of success for you? A certain number of leads? Purchases reaching break-even? Profit made right from the initial sale? Do you know whether people were clicking and visiting but not converting? Or not clicking at all? Those are very different problems from each other. Is...

    Found This Story: My brother killed himself because of BTC

    That's really one of the troubles with speculation. If you judge wrong and lose money - you feel bad. But even if you get it right and make money (which from that account he must have, despite having had some hacked) - then there's still a tendency to feel bad because you could have made even...

    Copywriting Contest... (RESULTS POSTED!)

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I'm pressed for time right now, though hopefully I'll throw my hat in later. But I just wanted to ask, have you tested your current one without the word "eventually" in it? Using eventually provides a nice "inverted pyramid" look leading the eye down to the form. But it is also "pulling your...

    Lex DeVille's: 15 Days to Freedom - Make Money Copywriting in 15 Days or Less

    GOLD! 
    @baljitlewis The main issue that I see repeating in your headlines is that they imply effort. i.e. #1 "Make [enough] money." To most people, making money is a kind of slog. Enough also isn't very abundant...it has a "just getting by" feel to it. #2 "Learn" - to a surprising amount of people...

    5 Year Old Girl Fined 150 Pounds for Lemonade Stand

    Girl, 5, fined £150 for lemonade stand - BBC News I understand why they have such laws...but things like that really annoy me. Young kids shouldn't be learning that offering a service is a "bad thing." Good on them for retracting the fine...but the psychological hit on the girl is already...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Somehow overlooked posting here... I've read the book...a few times. It's one of those good books I think deserves re-reading. Think I might have another go of it in preparation for the new book. (I know it's not a sequel, but still!)

    How is this idea

    Well...as someone with thinning hair, why would I buy your product over all the others being hawked?

    Cheap education that isn't udemy.

    Thanks. Hadn't seen that place before and looks to have some interesting stuff. Cheapest education I ever got is still the library. Learnt more in a library than I ever did paying for a degree.

    copy protection of pdf's/ebook etc

    PUBLISHING 
    All the above. Pretty much once something is digital it's going to be copied no matter what you do (if it's at all popular, that is). Prominent watermarks along with locking of copy etc can act as a good deterrent - but there's always ways around it ultimately, it makes it a pain to read and...

    What's the big deal about copywriting?

    Writing (good) copy requires a person knows the market they are writing to - and knows it well. Not only their wants, needs, fears, hopes, cliques etc which are often more static... But also dynamic concerns such as the marketing they've been exposed to up to now on the topic and their beliefs...

    Launched to Crickets...Best way forward is?...

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I haven't looked through all the copy, but I think you would benefit by at least reconsidering the use of the phrase "Retrain Your Brain", especially in a headline. That seemed to become popular a few years ago and has since "worn out its welcome." Many people have heard it before referring to...
