Online Floral Arrangements Website, EZBloomers.com Launches iPad 2 Giveaway Via Facebook

Indialantic, Florida (PRWEB) November 22, 2011

Online floral arrangement company EZBloomers.com has launched a contest driven by Facebook to win an iPad 2 valued at $ 499. The contest is going on now and will announce the winner via Facebook at the end of February 2012.

Facebook fans will see the landing page but no registration is required. The online floral arrangement website has simply asked fans to purchase a floral arrangement from EZBloomers.com between November and February to instantly be entered to win the grand prize. EZBloomers.com hopes that Facebook users will share the information by clicking on the ad to post on their wall to alert their friends as well.

Besides the current promotion to win the iPad 2, every month EZBloomers.com provides an additional sweepstakes to win a floral arrangement (valued at $ 50). Only current Facebook fans can enter and are eligible to win the contest. To enter the contest all applicants have to like EZBloomers on Facebook and complete the form after they click on the Sweepstakes tab underneath their profile image.

EZBloomers.com hopes that both contests will help increase the sites engagement as well as build up buzz on their social media sites to highlight their unique way of sending flowers. "We have a big challenge by going up against the major internet floral retailers in our space. We came to the conclusion that florists must no longer deal with minuscule profits due to larger corporations dominating this industry and not giving local florists much beyond the cost of their products, says Kimba Vasquez, President of EZBloomers.com. We understand that the way we do business is revolutionary in our space and its sometimes difficult to get the word out on what we do.

Facebook and Twitter have accelerated EZBloomer.coms message on how the site saves florists as well as consumers money when purchasing flower arrangements online.

Surprising Shopping Study Results: Men Engage More Frequently Than Women in Five of Six Online Social Shopping Activities - Performics

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) October 27, 2011

Performics (http://www.performics.com), the performance marketing agency owned by Publicis Groupe, today unveiled its 2011 Social Shopping Study which found men are more likely than women to conduct five of six social shopping activities. Contradicting commonly held beliefs about gender and social behaviors, the study showed men more frequently research product information, read reviews, compare products, find product availability and get store information via social networks, shopping and deal sites; while women reign supreme when searching for deals, coupons and specials on similar sites.

Aside from Facebook, men frequent social networks (at least once a month) substantially more than women:

YouTube (54 vs. 34 percent)
Twitter (37 vs. 24 percent)
Google+ (36 vs. 24 percent)
Myspace (31 vs. 20 percent)
LinkedIn (20 vs. 16 percent)
Facebook (96 vs. 97 percent)

Women are reported to control about 80 percent of household spending, so it may be surprising for some to see men play a more dominant role in the social shopping and research process, said Dana Todd, SVP, marketing and business development for Performics. But given recent reports of digital dads and increases in shared shopping activities across genders, this new data is intriguing. Weve layered social network behavior with shopping patterns and the results are helpful for marketers trying to predict how social shopping figures into upcoming holiday campaigns. Many may not have considered specifically targeting men in social ads.

Aside from key gender differences, the study, conducted by ROI Research Inc., also revealed that active social networkers most often turn to shopping sites like Amazon, eBay or brand websites to begin the purchase process when searching for a product (87 percent) and right before they commit to a purchase (83 percent). They are more likely to turn to social networks such as Facebook immediately after the purchase to share their experience (59 percent).

Many people have integrated social media in all phases of the shopping process, particularly because Facebook is how they connect with friends on mobile devices and at home. We all do itasking friends, family or colleagues to weigh in on a purchase, or posting a great find, added Todd. But its not all about social activity; shopping and deal sites are certainly holding their own and offer an excellent opportunity for marketers to participate with customers.

Online activity while shopping in-store is also gaining popularitymany respondents said they occasionally or frequently conduct in-store social (2050 percent) or search (1862 percent) activities. In fact:

Sixty-two percent said they conduct competitive price searches while in a retail location
Forty-five percent check-in at a store
Forty-one percent use a search engine on their mobile phone to look for information
Thirty percent use a barcode scanner on their mobile phone to shop for prices
Twenty-five percent pause while at a physical location prior to finalizing a purchase in order to seek advice on a social network; 41percent said they wait between five and 10 minutes for advice on social sites before proceeding with their purchase

The study explored the role of social networks, shopping sites and deal sites across many different aspects of the shopping experience, including phases of the purchase process, product categories, in-store shopping behaviors, gender differences and more.

Losing Your Market Share Online? Reason Why and What You Can Do About It

New York City, NY (PRWEB) February 19, 2008 -

In any business, staying ahead of your competitor is key if you want to succeed. Yet whereas keeping yourself in front in the brick and mortar business world can come down to simple pricing wars, online it's a different battle altogether. Here, the rules are changing constantly, and to stay ahead you need solid expertise not only in marketing and search engine strategy, but also being aware of new tactics and finding creative solutions for them.

"Things used to be so much simpler for businesses," says Yevgeniy Gutsalo, Internet Business Consultant for Luka Global Group - http://www.lukaglobal.com. "You needed solid content as well as a strong SEO and SEM strategy, and that would often be enough to get you near the top of Google, Yahoo, and other search engines rankings. Now, however, with new competitive search engine strategies, the approach is far more subtle."

Online businesses have developed cutthroat tactics in the invisible war for keywords, and often-traditional establishments can't keep up, especially in industries where drop shipping is readily available. This sees keywords used in a variety of ways - instead of targeting just "book", for example, search engine experts are targeting "horror books", "romance books", and "children's books", by setting up multiple niche sites. This will often see a traditional business find it hard to compete with an army of sites.

Keeping with the multiple keyword themes, another approach is to register numerous domains for a single keyword or niche, therefore giving you complete control of the market. You can have different registered mailing addresses or contact details, but at the end of the day, all the traffic is still coming to you. And that means all the profits.

The other main ploy being used today is often unethical search engine optimization. This is where Internet marketers will use underhand tactics to rise up the rankings. Despite the fact that this type of marketing may get you penalized by search engines, many are willing to take the "punishment" for search engine placement, and just start again with a new site, or work on many sites at one time with these techniques.

"I've had many businesses approach me with these very problems," agrees Gutsalo. "Businesses that have been online for over 10 years, but were now having to spend thousands a month on Google Adwords because the competition were using these new, sometimes unethical tactics. I've often suggested branding, building a loyal customer base, and even contracting experts to guide customers with product purchases. Another overlooked example is the 'thanks for letting me in!' method of attracting people to you, by making them want you to attract to them."

Although some companies may be reluctant to brand -- putting it down as too much of an expense -- with the new guerilla tactics being used in the keyword war, it's a cost that they can ill afford to ignore. Consulting Groups such as Luka Global Group see branding misunderstood as simple marketing, and an excellent growth area for businesses as a service to provide. A successful business may now need to establish modern, creative branding strategies to stay one step ahead in the invisible war for keywords.

Pearson School Partners with Tikatok, Barnes and Nobles Online Childrens Publishing Platform

New York and Boston (PRWEB) September 08, 2011

Pearson, the leading learning company, and Tikatok, the leading childrens publishing platform and a Barnes & Noble company, today announced a long-term, strategic partnership to fully integrate an interactive digital platform for creating personalized online storybooks with Pearsons new myWorld Social Studies elementary grades program. The new curriculum is available for review by educators now and will be in classrooms for the 2012-2013 school year.

The partnership represents a major breakthrough as teachers can -- for the first time -- incorporate the latest digital storytelling technology from Tikatok into the Pearson social studies curriculum. With the storytelling process embedded at every step of the curriculum, students will continually make personal connections, develop critical thinking skills, and express themselves in writing all aimed at engaging and motivating them to excel.

Social studies teachers testing the myStoryBook platform said it was an excellent way to highlight what students learned - so many excellent features are incorporated and that digital storytelling would be a powerful motivator and a great instructional tool.

A growing body of research points to the effectiveness of digital storytelling as an educational tool to engage students, to empower them as writers, and to ensure they can retain and comprehend information. Digital storytelling ensures students know their facts, make decisions about the key elements, and shape those within the parameters of telling a story. Such work involves high-level information literacy, critical thinking and creativity; the result is an original and authentic product of the child's knowledge and imagination," said Dr. Lesley Farmer, Professor California State University, Long Beach, in her report Using Technology for Digital Storytelling: Tools for Children.

By fully integrating Tikatoks StorySpark proprietary system, myWorld Social Studies will enable students to develop critical skills including

NASA Turns To Online Recruitment For New Astronauts

(PRWEB UK) 21 November 2011

Applying to become an astronaut is now just a few clicks away, after US space agency, NASA, launched an online recruitment drive to find 55 new space travellers.

While the actual application process may have been made much easier - with even a flashy YouTube video created to provide the details of the job - the requirements of successful candidates are still as rigorous and demanding as ever.

Despite ending the shuttle programme earlier this year, taking out of commission its own means of sending people into space, NASA will still be sending a couple of astronauts every year to the International Space Station on a Russian Soyuz spaceship, for six-month stays.

Astronauts will also be needed for an American-built commercial rocket, destined for the space station, and eventually - likely to be in more than a decade's time - NASA hopes to fly astronauts in a government-owned Orion capsule to an asteroid or even Mars.

Speaking in the recruitment video, NASA Administrator Charles Bolden tells potential candidates, "We need you to help plan for this future of exploration. Join NASA. Get your application in now for the 2013 astronaut candidate class. Your spaceflight experience begins right now."

Geoff Newman, chief executive of online recruitment agency RecruitmentGenius.com have surprisingly recruited for similar roles and feels this approach is going to create a deluge of inappropriate applications.

The greatest benefit of the Internet is its accessibility and reach, but perversely this is going to be its downfall in this instance with lots of wannabe astronauts making irrelevant applications. In similar circumstances we have always adopted a more focused approach that will ultimately deliver the same quality candidates without so much paperwork.

Candidates must have at least a bachelor's degree in engineering, biological science, physical science or maths. It is only open to US citizens, and the successful candidates must then learn Russian. Physically, the astronauts must be between 5 feet 2 inches and 6 feet 3 inches tall and have vision that can be corrected to 20/20. Medical doctors and teachers are looked upon favourably.
