Why People Buy Followers

by Leave a Comment

When people buy followers (that can also mean fans and subscribers), they may know they are buying fake people. There are guides that tell people not to buy fake followers, and there will be a lot of other guides that will soon be published that talk about not buying fake followers. Despite all of these guides, buying fake followers has turned into a multimillion dollar business. But why?

The answer to me seems to be clear. The people who buy followers want a false sense of power; the ability to look bigger than they really are in front of themselves and everyone else. The account with 10,000 followers gets looked at more than the account with 100 followers. Although the 10,000 followers someone bought are fake, they fall for that false sense of power.

There are a lot of people who want power, but some people go too far just to feel powerful. Having power and feeling powerful are two different things.

Scattered Information

by 1 Comment

When it comes to essential information, it cannot be scattered. Scattered information gets lost. Being able to group a lot of information in one source will allow you to see previous information that may be important right now.

There are a lot of social networks and blogs that we see on the web. Some of the content on those social networks and blogs are really good while we have all seen our fair share of really bad content as well.

The good content is the content that you want to hold on to. You don’t hold on to the information of good content by writing it down on a small piece of paper. That results in the accumulation of small papers containing unorganized information. With a lot of small papers, a lot of them will get misplaced, even if they are really important.

If you are looking for ways to become more productive, getting rid of bad habits is a great start. There are bad habits that we all have, and all of those habits must be eliminated in order for our businesses to move forward.

You Can’t Win By Being The Person You’re Trying To Beat

Google remains the most visited search engine among the other search engines such as Yahoo and Bing. Since Yahoo bought Tumblr and there was a Google VS Bing challenge, I decided to compare the search engines.

It seems as if there are more ads on Yahoo’s search engine results than there are links to websites that are not advertised. After a head count, there are 13 non advertised links and 10 advertised links. Some of the searches tend to show fewer ads, but there are going to be at least 5 of these ads on a page. By the way, blogger Barry Schwartz points out in this post that Yahoo didn’t wish the fathers a happy Father’s Day.

That leaves Google and Bing to fight it out. In the Google VS Bing challenges, I ended up choosing Bing as the winner. The problem with the Google VS Bing challenges is that I couldn’t tell the difference. Bing wasn’t going to tell its visitors what they picked until they made their decision. That’s why I and other people who did it couldn’t tell the difference between the two search engine.

Google has been around for 8 more years than Bing. Google and Bing both get billions of searches, but Google is getting more searches than Bing by far. Looking like the best does not mean that you are the best. Bing does look like Google, but Google remains the top search engine.

If you want to stand out from the crowd, you can’t try to imitate someone who is already standing out from the crowd.

Ending On A Good Note

by Leave a Comment

No matter where your business is heading whether it be up or down, everyday must be ended on a good note. Make some progress for your business by the end of the day or do something special. What we leave behind at the end of the day has the potential to reflect what we do the next day.

Ending on a good note will allow us to jump right back where we started on the next day. Ending on a bad note will make us hesitant to do our work the next day.

I recently took my last kick for my soccer team since I aged out. The last kick I took was a goal to the right corner of the goal.

C Not K

by Leave a Comment

The name of my blog is marcguberti.com, my Twitter username is @MarcGuberti, and everything I sign has my name on it. People still spell my name with a “K” instead of a “C,” even the people who have known me for a long time.

The common way of doing something such as spelling a name is not always the right way. Just because a lot of people have their name ending in one letter doesn’t mean everyone’s name will end in that letter.

No matter how many times I tell people my name ends in a “C,” people address me as if my name ended in a “K”. Not everyone is a part of the trend, and it is these people who are able to stand out from the crowd.

The Descending Business

by Leave a Comment

A business usually descends because of multiple factors. Less sales, fewer visitors, and less content are some of the reasons that businesses could be descending. When a business is descending, it means that the business plan doesn’t work anymore, no matter how long it has been used.

Don’t use the same methods for your business and expect different results each time. Selling a product will only result in so many sales. If the product is not marketed by you or someone else, the product will only be able to do what it is doing now.

The descending business is the business that continues to do what it has been doing for a long time. The tactics that made this business millions of dollars a decade ago could be hurting the business today. In order for the descending business to make a comeback, a lot of changes need to be made. If a business does not respond to its descend, the results can be devastating.
