(PRWEB) July 14, 2008 -- Titan Poker, the largest poker room on the iPoker Network, has improved its generous range of prizes for its new players. All first-time depositors are automatically awarded with free entry into one of Titan Poker's New Depositors Freeroll tournaments - which are staged five nights a week. Winning players were previously able to choose from one of five fantastic digital prizes, including an iPod Touch, 8.0 Megapixel Digital Camera and a Mini Home Theatre System.

Now the popular poker room has broadened the spectrum and players can reach for an even bigger prize - at no financial cost to themselves. Winners of the New Depositors Freerolls are still able to choose from one of the above-mentioned digital prizes or they can opt to continue playing for a PlayStation 3; a Sony Vaio Laptop; or $2,000 in cash.

Players do not need to take any risks or financial gambles in order to win one of these larger prizes. Each gift will be worth a certain number of Titan Poker Points, which can be earned simply by playing in ring games and online poker tournaments. Players need to earn the required number of Points of their desired prize within the first month of winning the New Depositors Freeroll. For example, players will need to earn 3,000 Points within the first 30 days for a Play Station 3, 20,000 Points for a laptop, etc.

This promotion is in addition to Titan Poker's generous Sign-up Bonus, where new players redeem bonuses by earning Titan Poker Points. Titan Poker also stages additional freerolls for its new players three times a month, which award thousands of dollars in guaranteed prizes.

NOVOSIBIRSK, Russia, July 8, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ ----Sibers LTD, a Russia-based software outsourcing company, celebrates its 10th anniversary as a global provider of custom software solutions. Founded in 1998, Sibers has successfully delivered more than 800 projects for oil/gas, finance, realty, healthcare, education, and entertainment industries.

Sibers cordially thanks its clients for the trust and loyalty. Being oriented towards the highest standards in IT, Sibers plans to further build on its reputation of high-class software supplier for a range of customers. This year's intermediate results prove capability for about 60 projects running simultaneously by more than 100 developers majoring in different technologies. The financial results show stable growth: working capital grew by 63.04% in 2007 compared to 2006 and by 53% in Jan.-May 2008 against similar period of 2007.

The businesses to benefit most from this collaboration are startups and venture capitalists. An innovative idea combined with Sibers strong professional experience and widest choice of technologies boosts the start and brings quick profit overtaking the competitors.

"I found Sibers and shared with them my idea for starting a new business," said Richard Davenport, Founder/COO at Connexiti LLC. "I was looking for a responsible partner to cope with changing requirements, help with new ideas, and maintain flexibility while providing real results - all of the attributes necessary to turn a startup from an idea into a business. Sibers has been the right choice. We consider our collaboration a beneficial one. Our business has undergone constant development and improvement for nearly three years, and we have many additional projects waiting to be implemented."

Likewise, prosperous businesses benefit from this collaboration by hiring a qualified team of developers without organizing a new branch of business. "Our company has been developing software for over 10 years in Australia," said Rob King, 2hippo Pty Ltd. Director. "We always hired local staff, but finding the right skills became difficult and time-consuming. Outsourcing is a way to access skilled professionals, within an established organisation with proven project management systems. We picked Sibers as a long-term development partner and focused on building trust and communications to ensure success. Sibers team is always ready to listen and works hard to deliver a great service."

Celebrating 10 years of successful growth, Sibers intends to accumulate new experience and looks forward to further years of success for the company and its clients.

Guaranteed Search Engine Optimization - Is it a scam?

Posted on 2008-Jul-22 at 12:46 - 0 Comments - Post Comment - Link

As I talked with a prospect on the phone, the basic search engine optimization questions arose. How do we build links? How do we optimize content? These are standard questions, which I’m more than prepared to answer. But when I mentioned that we guaranteed page one placement on Google (in the natural search results, of course), the man chuckled and said “You can’t do that.”

Search engine optimization companies have been making excuses for years about why they can’t guarantee first page placement. The truth is, nobody can guarantee it with one hundred percent certainty, but an experienced white hat SEO firm can certainly measure their odds.

If statistics indicate that a certain industry’s most popular keyphrases take an average of six months to get to page one on Google, then an SEO firm doing their job should be able to guarantee that placement over the course of at least a twelve month term. That seems fair. But companies that are a overly cautious or inexperienced may spend their time making excuses, instead of promises. It’s perfectly fine for you, the customer, to take a risk, but not your SEO firm… that doesn’t seem fair, does it?

So, should you immediately sign a contract with the first company that offers a guarantee? Absolutely not. First, look for red flags.

Red flag number one: the “special relationship.” Google cautions about companies that claim to have an inside track to higher page rankings due to a “special relationship” with the world’s most popular search engine. The simple truth, confirmed by Google, is that no such animal exists. Your page’s ranking is based on Google’s PageRank algorithm, which looks at the quality of your page’s content and links, as well as the quality of the content and links on sites linked to and from your site. The only “special relationship” you can form with Google to bypass the PageRank algorithm is with their Adwords program, which costs anywhere from fifty cents to sixty dollars a click, depending on your industry.

Most companies that play the “special relationship” card also have cheap prices, which is our second red flag.

Red flag number two: cheap prices. Search engine optimization is a highly involved process. The content optimization is only the most basic step; everything beyond that hinges on link building. The ethical methods of link building start with writing and publishing professional articles and press releases, which are submitted to relevant and quality-controlled web site directories. Two more tactics available to ethical SEO firms are social bookmarking and tightly scrutinized link exchange management, both of which take time, effort, and ethical SEO management. Even if these processes are outsourced to the far middle regions of the desert, where dial-up is still considered cutting-edge, thirty to fifty dollars a month (fifteen to twenty-five pounds GBP) is simply not enough to cover the time and effort of a reputable SEO company, and it’s certainly not enough for a guaranteed SEO project.

Red flag number three: guaranteed uselessness. Any company’s guarantee is only as serious as the consequence of their failure to deliver. Sure, I could guarantee you first-page search results, but if a year later, you’re not, and I only have to buy you lunch at a local sandwich shop, then the guarantee was only as valuable as the sandwich. If the consequence offered by the SEO company in question is simply “free SEO” until you get what you want, or if the guarantee is for second-tier keyphrases (rather than the ones people actually search for) save yourself a lot of frustration and move on.

When a company fails on a guaranteed result, at least some portion of your investment should be returned. The best method is to deal only with SEO companies offering a guarantee per keyphrase, so that you only pay for the phrases that are on the home page.

The guarantee you should demand is an ethical practices guarantee. This will assure you that your SEO only uses content optimization and link building strategies that are approved by the major search engines.

And last but not least, always get a list of the services you’re paying for, and know exactly what your search engine optimization company is doing to and for your web site. If the answer is “trade secret,” or “patent pending,” or “proprietary process,” or “secrets held by my pet wizard that lives under the kitchen sink,” save yourself a lot of frustration by going elsewhere.
