Greetings to all and a warm welcome to our new members!

What's New?

First, I must apologize.

1. For not being regular with this newsletter lately, but it has been a lot of work to get the site ready and functioning for everyone. So many details... So little time... : )

2. One of the snags keeping me from writing this newsletter lately is that our membership software developed a glitch.

The good news is, we seem to have found a way around this problem. So far so good. We save and restore the database several times daily. On the outside chance that you can't login in, please let us know. Just .

3. We have added a new page to help ya'll with traffic generation and other misc. software tools and resources, mainly on the image editing and graphics pages.

The traffic generation page is accessible to all members. Just login to the member area to access it.

4. And last but not least: As of this issue you can now access every newsletter inside the FreeStar Newsletter Archive.

How To Drive Your Visitors Away

use "those" pesky pop-ups. Especially the ones that tell your visitors a "live" person wants to talk to them but isn't.

First of, they are extremely annoying. Few things will get rid of your visitor faster than lying and annoying them. These "live" person chat windows (you know the ones) are a lie! There is no live person in the first place. All your visitors get are canned responses.

If anyone is that lazy they shouldn't be in business in the first place, right? Being able to actually TALK to a prospect is what your WANT, isn't it?

How much hotter of a prospect can you get than someone who actually made the effort to start communicating with you about your product or service?

So, don't turn them off by starting your possible relationship with a blatant lie. Your visitors are not stupid. Treat them with respect and you have a much better chance of turning them into loyal customers.

Use live chat instead that allows your visitor to choose if and when they want to talk to you. Chat scripts are plentiful. Just do a web search and you'll find something to suit your needs.

Other pop-ups are no better. Imagine you are in the middle of reading something you are interested in. Suddenly a popup appears, right over what you are reading. Or worse... the darn thing just follows you down the page like a dog in heat.

Now let's be honest. How long would YOU stay on that page? If your well-written copy does not convince them... do you really think an annoying pop-up will?

How teed off are you going to be when you try to close that annoying pop-up, but the "X" button is so well hidden you can't get rid of the pesky thing?

What would you do? I, for one, am looking for the next web site immediately. How many people, do you think, feel the same way? Do you want to risk losing them?

There is nothing wrong with using pop-ups when used properly. The best pop-ups are the ones where your visitor has some control over them.

Using them to elaborate a point, where people can click on a link for more info or to allow someone to view an enlarged picture for details are just 2 ways for pop-ups to be extremely useful.
