SEO Amplified Introduces Risk Free, Pay for Ranking Local SEO Services

SEO Amplified Introduces Risk Free, Pay for Ranking Local SEO Services












Indianapolis, IN (PRWEB) January 26, 2012

Search engine optimization (SEO) is perhaps the most important factor for small businesses marketing themselves on the Web today. Unfortunately, according to SEO Amplified, trying to find quality, affordable help with local SEO has also been one of the most frustrating and challenging parts of advertising on the Web. In response, SEO Amplified has launched a service which aims to simplify SEO strategies for small businesses.

No business, whether purely Web-based or a local brick and mortar retailer, can afford not to be found online today. According to a Morgan Stanley report, mobile Internet usage is anticipated to surpass that of desktops in the next 18 months, and consumers are increasingly relying on mobile devices for deciding where to shop, as suggested by a report on ZDNet.com. One example can be found by checking out sales of Amazon’s Kindle Fire in the weeks leading up to the December holidays and the increase in advertising impressions, which continues to outpace those of the first Apple iPad, according to PCMag.com.

“If businesses aren’t in the palm of consumers at the moment they are ready to buy they may as well not exist,” notes SEO Amplified operations manager, Josh Spaulding, “making local business SEO a top priority for all small and medium enterprises (SMEs). However, knowing that a business needs top place rankings on Google, Yahoo! and Bing is one thing. Actually getting there can have business owners feel like they are starring in another Mission Impossible sequel.”

“Sadly, while the Web has become an informational treasure trove and incredibly effective marketing channel for entrepreneurs there is so much misinformation and junk floating around that attempts at DIY small business SEO are normally doomed from the start. For those ready to enlist help with their small business SEO it seems to be a virtual mine field or giant roulette wheel,” continues Spaulding. “Land on black and you end up with a time waster promising huge results for a couple hundred dollars, which normally ends up a worse investment than buying a home at the top of the market in 2005. Land on red and you can pay tens of thousands of dollars and have to wait many months to see results, while competitors are already cashing in on customers.”

SEO Amplified is on a mission, offering risk free performance-based small business SEO strategies. The goal is to make SEO affordable and simple for everyone. “In a nutshell, you don’t pay unless you rank. There is no forking over thousands to wait and see if you get results. If we can get a business top Google rankings results, then the business pays a small fee. If not, then they don’t pay anything,” says Spaulding. “This is a win-win for both our SEO experts, who are confident in our ability to produce results, and for business owners who desperately need help but who are tired of being taken advantage of.”

Spaulding sums up SEO Amplified’s service by noting, “What our clients seem to be the most impressed with, aside from the increased business their top rankings generate, is the fact that we are willing to actually provide these results before charging them a penny. Previously in the SEO world, risk-free, performance-based SEO was simply unheard of. Business owners had to just gamble.”

Still, no business owner has time to gamble with their time today either. So in addition to the testimonials and examples found on the company’s website at seoamplified.com, Spaulding also provides references to some sites they have recently helped gain top Google rankings based on the terms ‘Indianapolis Plumber’ and ‘Germany Tourism’. According to Spaulding, this is no small feat considering how generic they are and the large amount of competition. “In fact the second term beat out Wikipedia, TripAdvisor and the Official Tourism Website of Germany,” states Spaulding.

New Bathroom Suites Add Considerable Value to House Prices

New Bathroom Suites Add Considerable Value to House Prices










(PRWEB) October 23, 2004

These are solid investments to add value to a property or, at the very least, are home improvements which cover their costs; a bathroom refit will add appreciable value to the price of a house (source: http://www.manchesteronline.co.uk/homesearch/advice/diy/s/55/55801_dont_knock_diyers.html), indicating that putting in a new kitchen or bathroom is always a safe and predictable way to spend money (source: http://www.prnewswire.co.uk/cgi/news/release?id=121557).

And a fitted designer bathroom need not be an expensive outlay.

Bournemouth’s leading discount bathroom specialists, Bathrooms Plus – http://www.bathrooms-plus.co.uk – offer substantial discounts on bathroom suites, fixtures and fittings with some special offers – http://www.bathrooms-plus.co.uk/special_offers.htm – representing exceptional value for money.

A long established business with the largest bathroom showrooms on the south coast, Bathrooms Plus supply all features of bathroom décor including complete suites, shower rooms, columns and enclosures, baths or multi-jet whirlpools – http://www.bathrooms-plus.co.uk/whirlpool_baths.htm – basins, radiators and heated ladders, mirrors, taps, lighting, stainless steel cabinets, tiles, flooring — all from stock.

Specialising in modern designer suites, Bathrooms Plus bring a clean elegance into your bathing space with over 140 integrated designs on display to suit all tastes and bathroom sizes. Many of these creations are the latest models from leading Italian, German and Austrian designers.

For all but an experienced designer with a clear understanding of spatial organisation, selecting and fitting a new bathroom can be a daunting task, especially when it may involve substantial modifications to existing plumbing and/or partitioning walls. One must also consider space constraints when incorporating a bedroom en suite or when enlarging an existing bathroom is not practicable and compact units – http://www.bathrooms-plus.co.uk/compact_bathroom_units.htm – are required. Engaging a designer may prove cost-prohibitive when factored into the renovation equation — which is where Bathrooms Plus offer even better value for money by providing a free design service.

Design considerations aside, the layman can fit tiles and towel or shower rails, perhaps cabinets or taps but more substantial renovation requires professional assistance. For those challenged by the task or, for reasons of time and effort, customers who simply wish to delegate installation to others, Bathrooms Plus work closely with a number of recommended installers to ensure the chosen suite it fitted cleanly, swiftly and professionally. Having been in the business for 30 years, they have a reputation for excellence to maintain and select only personally approved installers.

Increasing numbers of homeowners are looking not just to enhance the value of their property but recognise comfort and luxury are immediately within their grasp as an ever more competitive market and the opening of trade frontiers within the EU offer quality bathroom suites and accessories at affordable prices.

Whether undertaking a simple bathroom makeover or gutting and refitting a substantial property, Bathrooms Plus provide experience and guidance together with quality products and workmanship, ensuring the finished design matches the architectural vision.

Given today’s often hectic pace of life, a bathroom offers the perfect opportunity to escape into a personal place of contemplation and relaxation, a comfortable room where peace and tranquillity reign, where mind, body and spirit are rejuvenated and revitalised. Add a few drops of precious oils to a luxurious whirlpool bath or Jacuzzi and ease away the day’s tensions. Then add the therapeutic affects. Add the healing aerated waters, the buoyancy, the weightless, timeless moments immersed in a cocoon of warm water.

A bathroom is not simply another room, it is an invitation to recuperate and it should be afforded such respect.

A well-designed, modern bathroom is also a delight to clean. It presents a fresh and clean start. Countless households relegate the bathroom to functional necessity but give scant thought to the practicalities of cleansing the cleansing room. Change that.

A modern bathroom suite more than halves the time spent on cleaning. The surfaces are shaped and blended unobtrusively and turn a chore into a delight. And a place of necessity becomes a source of pride coupled with the joy and anticipation of use.

Wahoo Decks Offers Fire-Safe Deck Board and Deck Joist Noncombustible Building Products for Outdoor Living Market

Wahoo Decks Offers Fire-Safe Deck Board and Deck Joist Noncombustible Building Products for Outdoor Living Market











Gainesville, GA (PRWEB) June 4, 2009

Wahoo Decks, the leading manufacturer of aluminum decking accessories, has announced that its aluminum deck board, AridDek and its aluminum, structural deck drainage system, DryJoist, are both non-combustible fire-safe alternatives to woods or composites traditionally used in deck construction.

AridDek is an aluminum deck board with a tongue-in-groove design that creates a beautiful, low-maintenance deck surface while providing the added bonus on an integrated gutter system for a dry, usable space below the deck. The safe, non-skid textured surface naturally stays cooler to the touch than traditional decking planks.

“Even though there has been a tremendous focus over recent years to develop fire-resistant deck boards for use in wildfire-prone areas, none of the new composites are truly non-combustible,” said Jon Bailey, Vice President of Wahoo Decks. “Aluminum deck boards give homeowners the truly non-combustible deck board option they’ve been looking for.”

Wahoo’s newest product, DryJoist, is the first and only structural deck drainage system. When assembled, DryJoist creates a finished ceiling, waterproofing and the structure of the deck all in one system. Made of marine-grade, precision-extruded aluminum, the system is strong enough to replace the need for conventional wood joists and is impervious to rot, insects, mildew, and fire. Deck boards can be fastened to the system to the system in any direction without the need for extra blocking making it easier to create the custom deck surfaces and design options that today’s outdoor living enthusiast expect.

“Improving the deck surface seems to have been the focus of the industry in recent years and framing system of a deck has traditionally been overlooked,” said Jon Bailey, Vice President of Wahoo Decks. “What good is a fire-rated deck board when it’s attached to the same old lumber frame?” “Aluminum deck joist give the homeowner the option of building a non-combustible deck.”

About Wahoo Decks

Headquartered in Gainesville, Georgia, Wahoo Decks is the leading manufacturer of aluminum deck drainage systems. Wahoo products have been engineered to be easier to install, have more flexibility in design options, and to resist natural elements better than other traditional deck drainage systems. In addition to deck drainage systems, Wahoo Decks also offers a complete line of aluminum railing. Additional information about Wahoo Decks can be found on http://www.WahooDecks.com.

Share The Love, This Valentine’s Day, Give The Gift Of Better Hearing Through Better Hearing Instrument Care

Share The Love, This Valentine’s Day, Give The Gift Of Better Hearing Through Better Hearing Instrument Care













Global II & Zephyr

Johnson City, TN (PRWEB) January 26, 2012

Cupid, draw back that bow…And deliver better hearing to loved ones who will be happy waking up to fresh, clean, and crisp-sounding hearing instruments. With Dry & Store, users with all types of hearing devices report that they sound better and feel more comfortable too.

Dry & Store is an electrical appliance for nightly use at home to store and care for all types of hearing instruments, including hearing aids, cochlear implant hardware noise/tinnitus maskers, and ear monitors. It combines the three essential elements needed for effective drying: gentle heat, moving air, and a desiccant that drives the relative humidity really low, then captures the moisture that is released. During the first ninety seconds of the Dry & Store Global II cycle, a germicidal lamp sanitizes the hearing instruments, then the active drying continues for 8 hours. The unit then automatically shuts off, continuing to store the instruments safely until they are needed.

Since all of its patented technologies are contained in one fully-automated unit, Dry & Store is incredibly easy to use. Hearing instruments are placed in the tray (batteries and all) and the ON button is pressed. That’s it!

The flagship model, the Global II offers all of the benefits of Dry & Store conditioning-heat, moving air, and a germ-killing cycle. Great for both home and travel, as well as international use. The Global II accommodates all styles of hearing aids and implant equipment.

Both models, the Global II and Zephyr utilize the same powerful desiccant – the Dry-Brik II – to capture both moisture and odors.

The Zephyr has the same renowned drying and deodorizing benefit as the Global II, but it does not have the germicidal lamp. Even though it’s a smaller package, it still packs a punch…

Doing My Part, Inc. Announces New Board Member, Brady Mazzola, Watering Seeds Organization Founder, as Non-Profit Advisor and Partner

Doing My Part, Inc. Announces New Board Member, Brady Mazzola, Watering Seeds Organization Founder, as Non-Profit Advisor and Partner











Brady Mazzola Training A Young Child Wheel Chair Tennis.


Santa Monica, CA (PRWEB) January 23, 2012

Doingmypart.com was created in the summer of 2009 with a dream and a vision to help others in need that cannot help themselves. Founders Mike Spencer and Josh Delaney started the Doing My Part cause after realizing the gap between the small number of people who make giving a part of their lives, and the very large percentage that do not. The decision to make doing my part a platform to give individuals the simple opportunity to give back to all people in need and join a movement of like-minded individuals. Doing My Part doesn’t provide aid to a specific cause, rather, finds urgent projects for many causes and fundraises accordingly.

Clean drinking water, homes for the homeless, shoes for the barefooted, wheelchairs for the disabled, building for the disaster stricken….and the list goes on.

Now in Q1 of 2012, Doing My Part has filed for it’s 501(c)3 status, which means that once approved by the IRS, all donations to the Doing My Part cause will be tax deductible for the donor. In going through this process and the many processes involved with facilitating and mainitaining a non-profit organzation, the Doing My Part founders believed it was necessary to have an expert in the field.

They have chose to bring on Brady Mazzola, founder of Watering Seeds Org. Brady is a former Tennis Pro in Beverly Hills, CA. He is a recognized speaker in the Celebrity Non Profit industry and has been featured in publications like MSNBC, The Reporter, LA Confidential, and USA Today.

Inspired by a wheelchair tennis exhibition at UCLA in July 2004, Brady decided to take action on what was in his heart and the Watering Seeds Organization (WSO) was born. Watering Seeds is a certified 501(c)3 non-profit corporation and was founded to create recreational and athletic opportunities for physically challenged individuals by supplying the necessary adaptive sports equipment.

WSO’s current mission has been broadened to supply the needs of not only those with physical challenges, but also those who could benefit from mental exercises.

Founder, Brady Mazzola states, “We at WSO believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live a fulfilled life despite any ailment. We all know, life is unpredictable.”

From birth defects, to automotive and horseback riding accidents, to disease, lives are altered daily in mere seconds. In acknowledging the increasing number of amputees and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder victims (PTSD — a syndrome caused by re-experiencing traumatic events while unresponsive to current events) returning home from the war overseas, WSO recognizes the importance of addressing and promoting the independence and rehabilitation of our Wounded Warriors.

Doingmypart.com not only brought on Brady as the newest board member to help with non-profit operations, but these three young social activists are helping WSO military veterans in need of sports wheel chairs. DMP is going to announce this project shortly after the approval of the 501(c)(3) status for Doing My Part, Inc. 2012 is looking to be an exciting year for doingmypart.com and its projects.

Doing My Part is a non-profit organization with the mission of “transforming the way the world gives back”. Doing My Part gives anyone the chance to become a Hero through a minimal $ 3 automatic monthly donation.

2011 1099 Reporting Software from W2Mate.com Helps Businesses Avoid Harsh IRS Penalties in the 2012 Tax Season

2011 1099 Reporting Software from W2Mate.com Helps Businesses Avoid Harsh IRS Penalties in the 2012 Tax Season













W2 Mate- W2 1099 Software


Chicago, IL (PRWEB) January 19, 2012

1099 software pioneer Real Business Solutions is promoting its W2 Mate W2 / 1099 filing software, available for immediate evaluation and purchase at W2Mate.com. W2 Mate offers the simplest and most comprehensive windows-based W2 1099 preparation software solution, simply and intuitively.W2 Mate software caters to a diverse client base covering many different US industries and offers features to meet specific W2 1099 filing needs of these businesses.

According to the IRS, business 1099 filers who fail to provide correct payee statements and cannot show reasonable cause may be subject to a penalty. The penalty applies if the business fails to provide the statement by January 31 (February 15 for Forms 1099-B, 1099-S, and 1099-MISC (boxes 8 and 14 only)), fails to include all information required to be shown on the statement, or includes incorrect information on the statement. The amount of the penalty is based on when the correct payee statement is furnished. It is a separate penalty, and is applied in the same manner as the penalty for failure to file correct information returns by the due date.

“Preparing W2 and 1099 forms is a chore, but it doesn’t have to be. This is why we built W2 Mate. A powerful, yet very affordable,1099 filing software that takes the complexity out of year-end-reporting by providing the right tools to print and e-File 1099 & W2 forms”, says W2 Mate product manager Nancy Walters.

1099s are not just one form, but a class of forms that provide the Internal Revenue Service with an information return. An information return is a tax document that businesses are required to file to report certain business transactions to the IRS. These transactions vary from interest income, real estate transactions, sales of securities, charitable gift annuities, and capital gains distributions, but the most common for small business owners are payments to independent contractors or vendors.

W2 Mate W2 1099 software offers support for paper-print and paperless (electronic) wage and information return preparation for W2, 1099-MISC, 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, 1099-R, 1099-S, 1098-T, 1098, 1099-A, 1099-B, 1099-C, 1099-PATR, 1099-OID and associated transmittals (W-3 and 1096 forms).

W2 Mate meets the 1099 electronic filing requirements of the Internal Revenue Services and a number of state departments of revenue by proving the ability to generate files in the IRS 1099 electronic filing format. The W2 1099 software also fully supports the EFW2 format for e-filing W2′s with the Social Security Administration and states that accept EFW2 submissions. For interested QuickBooks users, a free 1099 software demo can be downloaded by visiting the W2 Mate product page.

National Housing Advocate To Help Boulder Colorado Rebuild

National Housing Advocate To Help Boulder Colorado Rebuild











Jay Shafer and his Tiny House


Boulder, CO (PRWEB) January 13, 2012

Tumbleweed Tiny House Company is hosting a workshop designed to help individuals realize a dream of affordable housing. The two day event takes place in Boulder Colorado on January 21st and 22nd of 2012 at the Hotel Boulderardo. Jay Shafer, founder of Tumbleweed Tiny House Company, is the featured speaker. Shafer, and his company, have appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, CNN’s 360 with Anderson Cooper, and in Time Magazine. Tickets for the Boulder, Co Tiny House Workshop are available online.

    Tumbleweed Tiny House Company has set up several events around the US, such as the one in Boulder Colorado, as an introduction to his company – but more importantly as an introduction to the Tiny House Movement. The January 21st & 22rd workshop offer people a chance to meet with Jay Shafer and ask a series of questions about the houses and the movement. Shafer‘s focus will be to walk the audience through the building process; from laying the foundation to setting the roof on a Tiny Home. Shafer will also speak candidly about his personal experiences as a Tiny Home owner, which includes using a composting toilet, driving his house around the country, and finding free places to live. These workshops are a perfect way to learn about building one’s own home and down-sizing in a supersized culture.

     “For decades corporations like those from the housing, insurance and lumber industries (under the banner of the International Code Council and state) have maintained that our houses need to be of a certain size to be legal. These mandatory consumption laws ensure a vibrant economy, as they increase spending on virtually everything- from heating fuel and property taxes to more trips to Ikea. While the program has been benefiting Corporate America for a long time, now, it wasn’t until just recently that our banks realized its full potential.” Says Jay Shafer on why Americans should consider owning a Tiny Home. “It turns out that when a bank tacks even larger house-size requirements onto those already imposed, they can get people to buy more house than they can afford, then, kick them out when they’re unable to make payments. It’s a win-win for banks at the front and the back end of the deal.”

    The Colorado workshops are a great way for people to learn how to build a home, gain a comprehensive understanding of the Tiny House Movement, or consider why a Tiny Home is a sound investment – even as a second home! These events are scheduled to accommodate sixty people in each workshop. As seen with prior events, Jay Shafer expects a wide demographic of people to attend and anticipates the January dates in Colorado to sell out quickly.

More about Tumbleweed Tiny House Company: Tumbleweed Tiny House Company isn’t just a business, it is a movement! With over twenty models to choose from, the company designs homes with a socially responsible platform. Tumbleweed markets houses that range from 65 square feet to 874 square feet. The company is founded by tiny house guru Jay Shafer – who is a recognized leader in popularizing the tiny homes concept. For more information on the company, Jay Shafer, and to view the homes, please visit: http://www.tumbleweedhouses.com
