Make good money with affiliate marketing is not
as hard as it seems, even despite intense competition, provided you
choose the right programs and do some strategic planning while promoting
your affiliate products.
But whether you are promoting other people's products or promoting your
own products, I am sure you would not want to leave money on the table
and invite others to steal your share of profit.
Granted, not every one who gets into affiliate marketing is successful.
Surely, those who are doing well leave no room for failure and take all
security measures and understand its importance.
Security measures? Yes! Security is one of the key factors in affiliate
marketing. If you do not adopt proper security measures, then your
business will be at high risk. One of the most important way to restore
security is to protect your affiliate links. Do not take them for
granted. A bit of carelessness on your part in regards to affiliate
links may cost you many dollars.
What do I mean? Consider the long, often complicated unique links that
affiliate programs give you send to your prospective customers, complete
with your affiliate tracking id and sometimes other information. Not
only do these look convoluted but they can create a lot of problems too!
If you send such an affiliate link to your customers, some may conclude
that you are promoting someone else's product and they would rather
circumvent you and visit the parent company. Also, if your link does not
function then your customers have to type a really long URL into the
browser, which will definitely put him or her off and hurt your results.
Failing to take security measures could leave you the victim of an even
worse situation. What if some devious Internet pirates with edit access
steal your affiliate links and replace them with theirs? When they do
that, then you get no commission at all.
If you are not getting the desired results out of your affiliate
marketing, don't lose hope. There's definitely a remedy to this problem
and that is ViralURL
ViralURL is a link shortener & cloaker that protects you in the
truest sense. There may be many unethical people lurking around, who

tampered with, then all your hard work will be rendered useless.

AMERICAN HIGHER EDUCATION IS FAILING, A Polymath Answer For A 21st Century Renaissance
AMERICAN HIGHER EDUCATION IS FAILING
A Polymath Answer For A 21st Century Renaissance
It is already known that American K-12 education is failing in the global theatre. What most people do not realize, however, is that our university-level institutions are also in a state of free-fall. Findings from national tests in a recent study by the Commission on the Future of Higher Education demonstrate that among recent graduates of four-year colleges, merely 34, 38, and 40 percent were proficient in prose, document, and quantitative literacy, respectively. These numbers reflect the inability of American college and university graduates to compete on the global frontier. Why does America seem to be trending toward academic and innovative failure? Dr. Robert D. Atkinson has recently written, “Colleges are focused on teaching kids content, not on teaching them skills, and too many students are focused on passing the multitude of tests in the multitude of classes they take, rather than really learning.” Essentially, universities are turning out capped and gowned graduates that know a lot of information (at least right before being tested on it) but are clueless about how to apply their knowledge outside of a classroom setting.
America’s failing collegiate educational systems have a potential remedy appearing on the horizon. An exciting development has started taking shape with Project Polymath, a plan for a future university whose goal is to not only usher in a twenty-first century renaissance but to train the new da Vincis to lead it. Dr. Michael Barnathan, Project Polymath founder and noted technology education speaker, makes a strong case for why the United States is the place to launch such a paradigm-shifting
endeavor, citing his conviction that “America is the country with the
most developed startup and research infrastructure, where polymath
graduates can find the greatest amount of support for turning their
inventions and projects into world-changing businesses and research.”
Polymath Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational charity. Driven by the passion and vision of a group of professionals across diverse backgrounds and fields of study, it currently has a virtual presence as well as physical presence in New York City; Providence, Rhode Island; and Cleveland, Ohio. Project Polymath boasts strong numbers despite its fairly young incubation period: they currently have 1034 registered students, with 68% of those students being from the United States. Clearly, American students value the vision that Project Polymath seeks to advance. Project Polymath’s chief desire, as expressed in their mission statement, is “to promote a second Renaissance in the arts, sciences, and humanities and to unlock and reaffirm the full creative and intellectual potential of the individual by providing capable students with an advanced interdisciplinary education, training an unprecedented number of polymaths.” In short, Polymath’s goal is to graduate a perpetually increasing number of students who are capable of creative problem solving, sophisticated practical application of their knowledge, and integration of concepts across a broad range of subjects. A look at past course offerings helps clarify this mission further. Courses offered have included “Data Structures and Algorithms,” “Introduction to the Creative Economy,” “Code Like a Rock Star,” and “Functional Neuroimaging and Digital Diagnosis.” Future courses planned are “Illusions of Control,” “Interdisciplinary Critical Thinking,” and “Human Factors and Functional Aesthetics.” For those who are interested in testing their own “polymathic waters,” talks have also been offered, the most popular being “How to Learn Everything: Learning Skills for Becoming a 21st Century Renaissance Person.”
Project Polymath has garnered support from a variety of sources. The Brain Sciences Foundation has partnered with Project Polymath to launch a multidisciplinary gathering of the world’s leading neuroscientists, psychologists, computational biologists, and artificial intelligence researchers with a focus on curing intractable neurological diseases. A reputable charity organization has also joined forces with Project Polymath and offered a large amount of classroom space as well as access to their partner institutions of Case Western Reserve University, the Cleveland Clinic, and Harman-Kardon, Inc., from which industry collaborations could be launched and provide a source of faculty and students. The Polymath Foundation has also been awarded a Google Grant from the popular search engine, which provides $10,000 a month in free AdWords advertising.
The future of education will be a hard-fought battle as Americans are forced to ask what types of thinkers and problem solvers are necessary to sustain the level and expectations of innovation in the emerging creative economy. American industry leaders and research facilities will need to make crucial choices as they begin to deeply contemplate what will make the country not only sustainable but competitive in the global economy. Will America turn out post-secondary graduates that know not only what to think, but also how to think? Is now perhaps when the time is most ripe, and America is most ready, for a massive paradigm shift as it nurtures and trains the future renaissance men and women of our world?
