I just did a quick check on sales for me last year (i.e. 2008) and because I’m a stats freak I wanted to know which hours in a typical 24 hour period were the hottest for me.

I thought I might just share it with you people the actual stats in %-ages numerically and graphically and see if you people have similar results as me based on your knowledge (either with hard stats or not).

Here it is (Based on PST time):

In A 12 Hourly Period …

00:00 – 11:59 (36.5%)
12:00 – 23:59 (63.5%)

In A 6 Hourly Period …

00:00 – 05:59 (12.5%)
06:00 – 11:59 (24.0%)
12:00 – 17:59 (35.7%)
18:00 – 23:59 (27.8%)

In A 4 Hourly Period …

00:00 – 03:59 (8.73%)
04:00 – 07:59 (9.92%)
08:00 – 11:59 (17.86%)
12:00 – 15:59 (22.42%)
16:00 – 19:59 (25.20%)
20:00 – 23:59 (15.87%)

In An Hourly Period …

00:00 – 00:59 (2.77%)
01:00 – 01:59 (2.38%)
02:00 – 02:59 (1.58%)
03:00 – 03:59 (1.98%)
04:00 – 04:59 (2.38%)
05:00 – 05:59 (1.38%)
06:00 – 06:59 (2.38%)
07:00 – 07:59 (3.77%)
08:00 – 08:59 (3.77%)
09:00 – 09:59 (4.96%)
10:00 – 10:59 (4.56%)
11:00 – 11:59 (4.56%)
12:00 – 12:59 (5.15%)
13:00 – 13:59 (4.16%)
14:00 – 14:59 (5.55%)
15:00 – 15:59 (7.53%)
16:00 – 16:59 (6.94%)
17:00 – 17:59 (6.34%)

Have you started on article marketing yourself?

If you aren’t acquainted, article marketing may sound like a big word but it basically means that you write (you can outsource this if ya like) up some article and submit it to one or more ezine directories like:

- EzineArticles

- ArticleDashboard

- SearchWarp

- And so on and so forth …

With proper article marketing, your readers unconsciously treat you as an expert. And with that, you can pre-sell and get them to opt-in, etc.

Article Marketing is simpler than you think. All you got to do is write. However, the key point here is to be consistent. I know of just a new guy who made $800 in his 1st month by simply writing and pumping out 500 articles in his 1st month.

Granted, the pay off wasn’t great but let’s not forget these articles can work to give you a residual income which is pretty great because you want to be paid multiple times for a one-off effort.

So if you haven’t got started, WHY NOT START NOW?

Now it is a time of internet; people are doing their businesses online and now they want to promote their products with the help of web hosting services providers. These providers give complete marketing solutions including adwords advertising, PPC and email marketing. One can also get good traffic from article marketing as well and this will ultimately improve your website search engine optimization ranking. One can also use Cost Per Click or cpc search engine marketing which basically permits you to give money to have your web site appeared on the major search engine results pages in the shape of text links or ads. There are many wireless internet service providers which are giving all these facilities including ip phones. So before choosing any web hosting or internet phone provider it is best to have some knowledge about different providers to make best selection.
