The Four Annoying Relatives You’ll Encounter at Christmas Dinner Brought to You by Fiversworld

Funny-Christmas-60

It’s the most wonderful time of the year… Or is it? Plenty of you may beg to differ. Not only are the credit card bills looming on the horizon, but so are the annoying relatives that we need to put up with come Christmas dinner. We all have them, and I bet you’re already thinking of one right now. Whatever the family, you’re most likely to encounter one of these.

1. The spoiled little kid

Whether it’s your nephew/niece, your younger sibling, or little cousin, they don’t make the spoiled brat like they used to. These days, the most spoiled of your little relatives will still shriek about their presents, but instead of not getting the latest race car or Barbie, they’ll be complaining about not getting the new Xbox Kinect or iPod touch. You can’t help but marvel at how much electronics mean to them already at their age, compelling you to go back to your old room and look ashamedly at your GameBoy Color that you still keep in a special plastic container.

2. The Stuck Up Aunt

For some reason, there’s always that relative that has done much better than your family ever has, and not only do you hate it, but your parents almost can’t stand it. You don’t mind the middle class life that you were raised with, and your parents raised you to never complain. But come Christmas time, as the family gets together, you can actually compare how much more stuck up your Aunt has become since you last seen her. You used to love her gifts – but that was before you had to make conversation with her. These days you can’t help but get frustrated at how she embarrasses your parents while giving you a discount card to some overly expensive department store, along with the assertion that you should be able to afford things from there by now.

3. The Grumpy Grandpa

It seems as if Christmas isn’t complete sometimes with that relative that just won’t be happy. More often than not, it’s the oldest of the bunch. Yep, it’s Grumpy Grandpa, all ready with his cynical remarks and biting insults. “What are you doing with your life? When are you going to stop fooling around? What woman would want a man with that kind of hair?” You’ve heard it all before. He turns your younger sister to tears every year then complains that she’s too soft. You know that walking five miles to school each day in the rain and sleet was hard on him, but sometimes too much is too much. Unfortunately, every time you tell your dad this, he just quietly tells you that Grandpa only has a few more years, and besides, it’s Christmas.

4. The Train Wrecked Cousin

If there are those relatives that have done better than you, there are those that have done worse. You would think these would make you feel better of yourself, but the just end up making you feel sad. Whether he/she’s recovering from one divorce too many by the age of 30, or “getting over” a drinking/gambling problem, it’s always a circus with the train wreck around. Even with the excitement this cousin usually brings, with each Christmas, the scene just keeps getting old as you end up the person they pour out their sorrows (and most likely their stomach contents) as the night comes to a close.

Annoying relatives or not, it’s still the Holidays, and it’s best we enjoy them. Happy Holidays!

Fret no more, for there are actually eight easy ways to increase the flow of people on your website.

1. Use a Twitter account to grab attention

Twitter is one of the best tools you could have to get people to pay attention to your website. There are many things you can do with Twitter. If you have a Twitter account, you can use a plug-in such as Twitter Tools or an application like Twitterfeed.com to syndicate new posts to you Twitter feed. You could also add the retweet button to your posts by getting a code from Tweetme so that your readers can simply click the link and share it with their personal network.

2. Do some guest posting

Guest posting is a great way to get new readers to your website. All you have to do is find a website that is similar to your own, and see if they allow you to maybe post an article about your on website on theirs. People that read the website might be attracted by yours and head on over to it if it sparks their interest.

3. Update frequently

Search engines will feature your website more if it is updated. The more you update, the more search engines end up indexing your site. Of course, make the content compelling; something that people are looking for, so it is more likely that they will click on the link.

4. Post your website on Facebook or e-mail it to your friends

If you have several friends on Facebook or e-mail contacts, you can actually utilize that to increase traffic on your website. Perhaps you know that many of your friends might benefit from the contents of your website; in that case, don’t hesitate to make a status update or a detailed e-mail and send it out so that almost everyone in your network can have the chance to see what your website has to offer.

5. Upload a video on YouTube

When we think social media, we cannot forget the power of YouTube. Millions of people go on the video uploading site each day looking for something to entertain them or help them. If you think your website may provide something that people are looking for, why not make an interesting video explaining its contents. Make sure to give it a catching title so that it appears in search engines.

6. Optimize search engines

This is probably one of the best ways to get traffic on your website, but definitely not the easiest. You can do this by utilizing articles, blogs, and social media. This takes hard work, though, and it may take time. Google has also just limited the use of links in a single page. However, optimizing search engines is still a great way to get an influx of traffic onto your blog, absolutely free.

7. Join online communities and advertise your site

Don’t think that it takes money to advertise; you could always do it yourself by joining message boards or other online communities and talking about your website there. Be sure to choose those that have something to do with your website, then browse the message boards and post about your site if you feel it would fit in the conversation. Better yet, just join in any conversation and make sure you put your website’s URL in the signature part. Then the more you post, the more your website will be seen.

8. Improve your website

It all starts with the main focus – your website. If your website is smooth and manageable, people will love it. And we all know that people love to talk. If they like your site, they’re sure to tell their friends about it and you’ll be getting more visitors in no time.

Three Ways To Effectively Outsource Social Marketing

As of now, there are over a few million people that have accounts in, or make use of, social media. It is, in a sense, the Internet epitomized. What people do in social media is basically what the internet is for. Here the exchange of information can happen effectively and quickly without any constraints. You can also look for almost anything you need in social media, too. Here you can find not only people but also groups with a common purpose, businesses and others.

In the same way, you can also forward your interests in social media. For example, if you have a business enterprise and want it to succeed, you can promote it with your social media account in more ways than one. For example, in Facebook, you can make a page for your product and invite people to like it. Furthermore, you can share posts from your product’s page and make sure that all your friends and contacts see them. And for events that are related to your enterprise, such as soft and grand openings, you can invite people to events. The number of ways in which to promote your business to social media is staggering; there are more ways not mentioned here that you can find out for yourself.

The trouble about social media marketing is that it can be time-and-effort-consuming. Just imagine having about a thousand Facebook friends and having to send messages, invite to events, and tagging all of them in pictures (yes, that can be necessary sometimes). Too much, isn’t it?  Imagine all the energy you’ll need to click all those profiles, the time it’ll take for your message to reach everyone and asking the same people to spread the word. It’s just too much for one person to handle.

Of course, you don’t have to do all that by yourself. You can outsource, or have someone else do your work for you. There are some businesses that will gladly do that for you, but their services might cost too much for you and your fledgling business. There are other people whom you can outsource your social media promotions with the same quality, but at a much lower cost.

One such place where you can hire people to promote your business through social media is Fiversworld. This is basically the marketplace for anything when it comes to freelancing on the internet, where people can buy and sell outsource services from writing articles, Search Engine Optimization, and of course, social media promotions.

If you want to make it in Fiversworld, there are some guidelines here that you should follow. Of course, you shouldn’t just make an account in the site without a plan.

1. Communication is key.

The first step to a healthy professional relationship is constant communication. This way, you and your seller won’t have any misunderstandings as to the objectives, plans and targets of your social media advertisements.

Communication shouldn’t be too much of a problem on the Internet. Save for people who live in different time zones, you and the person/s you hired can keep in touch by making use of messenger functions such as those in Yahoo!, Facebook, and Skype. Skype is highly recommended since you can video call your employees with this.

If the seller lives locally, you can even share phone numbers and communicate through your mobile phones.

2. Make sure that you and your seller have a mutual understanding of everything that needs to be done.

If you communicate with your employee regularly, then this shouldn’t be a problem. On the onset of the project, you should outline everything there is to know about the enterprise you are trying to promote on social media, your goals and target achievements, and when this all should be achieved. If you do this, your seller will have a clearer idea of what needs to be done and how urgent it is. For example, if you want your enterprise to be targeted towards a specific demographic, you can tell the seller and he or she will gladly comply.

3. Put everything in record.

Of course, you should put all of your operations into writing. This way, if you ever need to check, you can just look at the list of the people and places to which you distributed your information. You will also need to have a record of everything your employee has done in case you miss out on some key parts of the demographic and/or target audience. Also, if you ever need to follow up on some people, you can make a note of their contact details in case you forget.

Promoting business enterprises through social media is no small feat. Take these suggestions outlined in this article and you will outsource your venture’s advertisement without a hitch.
