         <title>The Difference Between Article Directories and Individual Submission Sites</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/The-Difference-Between-Article-Directories-and-Individual-Submission-Sites/3383472</link>
         <description>Article marketing is a marketing technique used both on-line and off. My first experiment with article marketing resulted in my employer and his co-writer being featured on the cover of Training Magazine. Fast forward more than sixteen years and I still use article marketing on a daily basis for myself and my clients.

There is a great deal of confusion around article marketing and in particular about the difference between article directories and individual submission sites like websites, blogs, newsletters, etc. 

Article directories (also known as article archives or article banks) are searchable on-line databases of articles contributed by multiple authors. The goal of an article directory is to collect articles on certain topics and offer them to publishers to place on their website, in their e-zine or in print.

Individual submission sites are websites, blogs, newsletters, e-zines and social media sites where a particular topic or a range of topics are being discussed. The goal of these sites is to attract and retain an audience of targeted website visitors.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+marketing" rel="tag">article marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+submission" rel="tag">article submission</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+directory" rel="tag">article directory</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+directories" rel="tag">article directories</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/document+sharing+sites" rel="tag">document sharing sites</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+sites" rel="tag">article sites</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/where+to+submit+articles" rel="tag">where to submit articles</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/submit+artic" rel="tag">submit artic</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis is a Virtual Assistant and expert at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.articlesubmissionsites.com&quot;&gt;article marketing&lt;/a&gt; .

         <title>What To Do When Your Website Sucks</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/What-To-Do-When-Your-Website-Sucks/2547419</link>
         <description>Every business, large or small, local or virtual, needs a website. You already know you need a nice looking site with content that is free of typographical and grammatical errors. What you may not know is that in order to create credibility and build relationships with potential and current customers you need the following:

A professional design: You have the option of hiring a web designer who will create a custom design for you, or you can choose a template or theme. Some templates and themes are free, while others are available for a minimal investment.

Consistent navigation: It is normal to have your navigation in more than one place on your website. Perhaps it is on the right side of your page and in your footer; but no matter where it is located, all navigation elements must be identical to prevent your visitors from getting lost!

Visible contact information: Only criminals profit from having their contact information hidden. If you are a virtual company, you do not have to provide an address, but always offer a telephone number and an e-mail address. If your visitors cannot find you, they cannot do business with you.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/website" rel="tag">website</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/web+site" rel="tag">web site</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/web+site+design" rel="tag">web site design</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/start+web+site" rel="tag">start web site</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/building+a+website" rel="tag">building a website</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/making+a+website" rel="tag">making a website</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/website+buildling" rel="tag">website buildling</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/website+design" rel="tag">website design</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> If you need a new website or have one that doesn't work well, then why not hire someone to help you?

         <title>Got No Heat In Your Tweets? - Defeating Social Networking Writer's Block!</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Got-No-Heat-In-Your-Tweets----Defeating-Social-Networking-Writer-s-Block-/2389206</link>
         <description>Social networking sites like Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, and Twitter offer users the ability to post a status update or micro-blog. These updates are short messages telling your friends or colleagues something you want them to know. People want to do business with someone they like, and keeping in touch with them through status updates and micro-blogs is a good way to build trust and rapport. 

Keeping in touch with your customers and potential customers is critical, whether you are a local brick and mortar business or a virtual organization online. It is vitally important that you always use good grammar and spelling to look your professional best. You also want to make sure that when you link out to another site, it has a professional image as well. Avoid trying to sell with your social networking messages. Notification of a coupon or sale is fine, but use these sparingly in order to retain your audience.

The process of writing a good tweet, status update, or micro-blog can take time and thought. But what happens when you are at a loss and can't think about anything to write about?  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Twitter" rel="tag">Twitter</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Facebook" rel="tag">Facebook</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/LinkedIn" rel="tag">LinkedIn</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/MySpace" rel="tag">MySpace</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/social+networking" rel="tag">social networking</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/social+media" rel="tag">social media</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/status+update" rel="tag">status update</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/microblog" rel="tag">microblog</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/social+network" rel="tag">social network</a>]]> <![CDATA[tweets]]> <![CDATA[microblogging]]> <![CDATA[tweeting]]> <![CDATA[writer's block]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> If you find social networking a time-consuming hassle, then why not hire someone to help you?

         <title>How To Build Your Offline Business With Online Local Directories</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/How-To-Build-Your-Offline-Business-With-Online-Local-Directories/1543397</link>
         <description>Every offline business wants more customers. That’s why you hang signs in your window and outside your door, to attract people’s attention and entice them to come in.

But if you are focusing solely on the people who walk past every day, you’re missing out on the huge market that constantly looks for services online. There are 300 million internet searches performed every day and a whopping 3 billion of them are performed on a monthly basis! About half of these people are looking for local businesses to buy from. The question is whether or not they can find YOU.

This is why it’s worth spending some time making sure you are listed in as many online local directories as possible. Don’t restrict yourself to the people who are already walking down your street. Get yourself listed online in some of these directories and you can reel in people from further afield as well. Just imagine – there are people out there who are driving around trying to find a business just like yours. If you’re listed online they have the ability to find you immediately.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/local+offline+directories" rel="tag">local offline directories</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/local+advertising" rel="tag">local advertising</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/local+marketing" rel="tag">local marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/yellow+pages" rel="tag">yellow pages</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/local+map+listings" rel="tag">local map listings</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Google+Maps" rel="tag">Google Maps</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Google+Places" rel="tag">Google Places</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Google+Local" rel="tag">Google Local</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/onlne+marketing" rel="tag">onlne marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[loc]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis submits and manages offline business listings to local internet directories.

         <title>Online Profiles Can Make Or Break Your Social Networking Success</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Online-Profiles-Can-Make-Or-Break-Your-Social-Networking-Success/1235143</link>
         <description>Almost every social networking site offers a feature called a "profile" that allows members to include their picture, a biography, live links to their websites and other detailed information. Most of us have multiple online profiles that are empty or only partially completed. It is this profile that helps other users decide if they want to work with you. Another perk of online profiles is that the live links pointing to your website may impact your search engine ranking.

It is very important that you think of these profiles as your own "Public Relations Department or Media Room", specifically designed to sell you and your business. Imagine that you only have a few seconds to sell a new prospect on why they should want to get to know you and possibly do business with you. What is said and offered during these few seconds can make all the difference in the world. This is EXACTLY why your online profiles need to be completed to capture the attention of anyone who visits these sites.

Let’s look at the different aspects of social networking profiles and what information and content you should include to ensure that you get the maximum results.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/social+networking" rel="tag">social networking</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/social+networking+sites" rel="tag">social networking sites</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/social+networking+site" rel="tag">social networking site</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/social+network" rel="tag">social network</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/social+media+marketing" rel="tag">social media marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/local+marketing" rel="tag">local marketing</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis creates and manages social networking strategies for her clients.

         <title>Five Crucial Things You Must Do To Build Your Business With Social Networking</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Five-Crucial-Things-You-Must-Do-To-Build-Your-Business-With-Social-Networking/1113256</link>
         <description>The age of social networking is more than upon us-it is becoming INGRAINED in us. Many of us are so addicted that we can hardly get out of bed before we begin checking to see status updates on Facebook and Twitter. Reconnecting with old friends and staying in touch with current ones are great reasons to use social networks-but what about using them to market your business?

The fact is, those same networks that you are using to share pictures and reminisce about old times can be great sources of income for your business. In addition, there are plenty of social networks out there that are made specifically for doing just that.

Below is a list of five crucial things you must do to utilize social networking effectively for your business:

1. Choose networks that cater to potential prospects for your business. There are so many social networks to choose from now, it can be overwhelming to keep up with all of them. In order to be effective, you simply have to make choices. Choose networks that cater to your particular market. The more targeted the network, the more interest and activity you are likely to generate.

         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Target-Audience--Who-Is-Your-Ideal-Client-/984702</link>
         <description>Your target audience consists of the people and businesses that are most likely to need and want what you have to sell. Before you create a marketing plan for your business, it is critical that you define your target audience and create an ideal client profile so you can attract this audience with your marketing. Once you have identified your target audience and ideal clients you will find it so much easier to design your marketing plan around their identity and their needs.

Some of the questions you may want to ask when defining your ideal client are listed below. Not all questions will be applicable to your ideal client, so pick and choose the questions based on your needs.

* What is his or her age?
* What is his or her gender?
* What is his or her marital status and do they have children?
* Where do they live?
* What is his or her income?
* What is his or her educational level?
* What is his or her hobbies?
* Is this person involved in any organized sport?
* Does this person own a business?
* In what industry is his or her business?  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/target+audience" rel="tag">target audience</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/ideal+client+profile" rel="tag">ideal client profile</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/target+markets" rel="tag">target markets</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/business+client" rel="tag">business client</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/marketing+strategy" rel="tag">marketing strategy</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/target+marketing" rel="tag">target marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/client+profile" rel="tag">client profile</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/potential+customers" rel="tag">potential customers</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/small+busin" rel="tag">small busin</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]>  I would like you to discover the benefits of having a marketing assistant to help you profile your ideal client and then help you determine how to find them.

         <title>Article Marketing:  How To Choose An Article Submission Service</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Article-Marketing---How-To-Choose-An-Article-Submission-Service/870783</link>
         <description>The majority of people I speak to about article marketing admit that it is actually the submission part of the process at which they get stuck.

It is time consuming and tedious to submit articles by hand or even with the help of software. Not everyone can handle such a thankless task, so I recommend you consider hiring a service to handle submissions for you.

There are many companies offering article submission services, so how do you decide who to hire?

Do some due diligence and ask about the service in forums about article marketing, ask an article marketing expert for his/her recommendation, and insist on getting references from any company that you are considering.

It is critical that you ask the important questions before committing to a submission service. The list below includes the basic questions you should ask before seriously considering a service.

1. Will they be using software or submitting by hand? 
2. Do they offer complimentary proofreading or editing services? 
3. Do they offer keyword research to optimize the title, body and byline of your article?
4. How long have they been in the article submission business?

         <title>Can't Afford Beauty Salon Visits for Bikini Waxing? Try These Money Saving Tips For Shaving At Home</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Can-t-Afford-Beauty-Salon-Visits-for-Bikini-Waxing--Try-These-Money-Saving-Tips-For-Shaving-At-Home/850795</link>
         <description>Due to the economy, women have been cutting back on their visits to salons and spas for bikini waxes, but they haven't cut back on grooming their bikini line. According to a proprietary survey by the cosmetics company, Hair Care Down There, 88% of respondents in 2009 are grooming their hair "down there". The most popular method? Shaving! Eighty-two percent of the respondents are shaving, while only 7% are getting their bikini area waxed professionally or through at-home products.

HAIR CARE DOWN THERE SURVEY
Interesting information:

5,830 survey respondents
* 74% are female
* 21% male
* 82% of total respondents "shave down there"
* 7% wax professionally or at home
* 69% of all respondents groom "down there" on a regular basis

Shaving remains the least expensive and most convenient way to groom pubic hair but some people are reluctant to start because they fear that they will suffer ingrown hairs, razor rash or nicks and cuts. Quite frankly, this is often the case. As with any beauty regimen, bikini shaving down there takes skill combined with great products for the best results.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/beauty+salon" rel="tag">beauty salon</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+line" rel="tag">bikini line</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+shave" rel="tag">bikini shave</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+shaving" rel="tag">bikini shaving</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+wax" rel="tag">bikini wax</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/brazilian+bikini+wax" rel="tag">brazilian bikini wax</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/brazilian+waxing" rel="tag">brazilian waxing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Hair+Care+Down+There" rel="tag">Hair Care Down There</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/hair+home+removal" rel="tag">hair home removal</a>]]> <![CDATA[hair remo]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Author Bonnie Jo Davis says: &quot;If you are looking for products created exclusively for 'hair down there shaving' then go to the company who has been a leader in the field since 2003.

         <title>The Skinny On Individual Article Submission Sites</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/The-Skinny-On-Individual-Article-Submission-Sites/817839</link>
         <description>Individual article submission sites are websites, blogs, forums and e-zines that accept article submissions. Each site seeks articles on a particular topic or a narrow range of topics. Accepting articles directly saves the publisher from having to search newsgroups or directories for fresh content. Each site has its own set of guidelines that authors must read and understand before they can submit their article.

Benefits of submitting articles to individual submission sites include:

1. Direct Delivery - Articles go directly to the publisher who is interested in their particular topic, saving publishers hours searching for the perfect article.

2. Improved Response – Because authors screen submission sites before submitting their articles, they have a better idea of what a publisher wants.

3. Editorial Suggestions – Some publishers offer valuable feedback on articles to help you improve submissions.

4. Expedited Publishing - Direct submissions, if on topic and compliant with guidelines, often are published much faster through individual submission sites than through other channels.

5. Strategic Relationships - Authors can and should create a relationship with each individual site's publisher, letting him or her know that they can provide original articles or a customized version.

         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Article-Marketing-Basics-Explained/706831</link>
         <description>If you've been writing and submitting free reprint articles for any length of time you know that each submission site has its own set of guidelines for writers. If you are new to the process you may not know that there are standard practices that apply in most cases for having your articles accepted. 

Even those of us who are seasoned at the art of writing and submitting articles need to be reminded occasionally of the basics that publishers and editors expect! Stay focused on these fundamentals to get the most mileage from your article submissions.

Original Content Only - If you didn't write an article yourself, you can't legally submit it for publication as your own work. The only exception here is if you hire a ghostwriter to write the article for you, in which case, you are the copyright owner.

Know Your Subject - A telltale sign of an amateur is an article that contains misinformation and invalid content. Article submission sites rely on quality content that provides something of value to their readers. If your article lacks substance and doesn't ring true, it won't be accepted.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+marketing" rel="tag">article marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+submission" rel="tag">article submission</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/internet+marketing" rel="tag">internet marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/articles+marketing" rel="tag">articles marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/submit+article" rel="tag">submit article</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+directories" rel="tag">article directories</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+submission+sites" rel="tag">article submission sites</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis is an article marketing expert and prolific writer who created Article Submission Sites to teach others how to profit from this internet marketing strategy.

         <title>How To Avoid Irritation When Shaving Your Bikini Line</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/How-To-Avoid-Irritation-When-Shaving-Your-Bikini-Line/638170</link>
         <description>Threading, waxing, plucking, laser, depilatories, electrolysis and shaving... ouch! So many types of hair removal and so little time to decide which one will work for you. The least expensive and least painful choice will always be shaving but you might be worried about the potential side effects especially in your delicate pubic area. Here are some of the potential problems you may encounter while shaving your bikini line and how to avoid them:

1. Razor burn is the skin irritation often caused by a blunt razor or incorrect shaving techniques. It is usually presents as a rash that shows up a day or two after shaving.

2. Ingrown hairs, also known as razor bumps, are red raised bumps on the skin where the hair has curled back into the skin after shaving and it is not uncommon for the bumps to become painful and inflamed. 

3. Razor nicks occur when the skin being shaved is cut by the sharp blade of the razor or by pressing or scraping the razor too hard against the skin.

The best way of treating these common side affects of shaving is by preventing them.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/best+hair+removal" rel="tag">best hair removal</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+bumps" rel="tag">bikini bumps</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+hair+removal" rel="tag">bikini hair removal</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+line" rel="tag">bikini line</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+shaving" rel="tag">bikini shaving</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+wax" rel="tag">bikini wax</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+waxing" rel="tag">bikini waxing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/body+hair+removal" rel="tag">body hair removal</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/depilatories" rel="tag">depilatories</a>]]> <![CDATA[depilatory]]> <![CDATA[elect]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis is a Virtual Assistant and prolific writer on assignment.

         <description>Make the most out of your time and efforts by creating a submission strategy for your article marketing. Both beginners and experts can and should use a submission strategy that will evolve over time. Your strategy,at a minimum, should brand you as an expert in your field, define your target audience and help you measure your results. Use your word processing program to develop your strategy and keep it front and center when writing and submitting your articles.

To begin creating your article submission strategy answer the questions below:

1.	Your target audience:
	Who is your most desired reader?
	What size business does your reader own or work for?
	What needs does your desired reader have that you can fulfill?

2.	Submission goals:
	Are you submitting in order to receive incoming live one-way links?
	Will you be promoting a blog, forum or website?
	Do you hope to become an expert and prove your capabilities?
	Are you hoping to increase sales of a particular product or service?

3.	Search engine benefits:
	What targeted keywords will you use in your title, article and byline?
	How will the one-way links from sites publishing your articles increase your
	search engine rankings?  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/internet+marketing" rel="tag">internet marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/internet+marketing+strategies" rel="tag">internet marketing strategies</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/internet+marketing+promotion" rel="tag">internet marketing promotion</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+marketing" rel="tag">article marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+submission" rel="tag">article submission</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/submit+article" rel="tag">submit article</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+directory" rel="tag">article directory</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/ar" rel="tag">ar</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis is an article marketing expert and prolific writer who teaches other businesses how to profit from this free marketing strategy.

         <title>Tankini, Bandini, or Thong, Oh My!</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Tankini--Bandini--or-Thong--Oh-My-/590583</link>
         <description>Choose the Right Bikini for Summer

In 1946, Louis Reard, an engineer - and a Frenchman, of course! - fashioned a two-piece women's swimsuit from 30 inches of fabric. Reard's rival in bikini design, Jacques Helm, was actually the first to create the iconic two-piece swimsuit of the 20th century. Helm called his design the "atome" in a nod to the smallest particle in the world known at the time. A marketing genius, Reard introduced his skimpy two-piece design five days after the United States began atomic tests in the Bikini Atoll and named it "bikini" to suggest that it would have the same explosive impact on society as an A-bomb.

The bikini is a women's two-piece swimsuit that covers the breast and groin areas. It was considered risquÃ© when it first appeared in 1946, but the two-piece design was actually a throwback to very ancient times. Wikipedia cites the earliest form of a bikini appearing in the Chalcolithic Era (3500 BCE to 1700BCE). Bikinis appear in ancient Roman mosaics and murals, suggesting they were popular as swimming costumes among Roman women.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini" rel="tag">bikini</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikinis" rel="tag">bikinis</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/swimsuit" rel="tag">swimsuit</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/swimsuits" rel="tag">swimsuits</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+micro" rel="tag">bikini micro</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/string+bikini" rel="tag">string bikini</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/pubic+hair" rel="tag">pubic hair</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+line" rel="tag">bikini line</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+line+hair" rel="tag">bikini line hair</a>]]> <![CDATA[hair removal]]> <![CDATA[bikini wax]]> <![CDATA[ingrown hair]]> <![CDATA[pubic shave]]> <![CDATA[]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis is a Virtual Assistant and prolific writer on assignment.

"Don't Worry About A Thing, Dear" is a softcover book geared towards women contemplating marriage or those who are already married. The cover image is an appropriate illustration by Edward Sorel, courtesy of The New Yorker Magazine, that shows Pan reading The Wall Street Journal while his wife sits at his side completely oblivious. 

It's a fact that many married women allow their husbands to handle the family finances while they sit idly by and sign anything that their husband places in front of them. The consequences of this behavior is made clear by the author Helga Hayse. Hayse says in the book "Our willingness to let our husband handle the finances in the marriage impacts our own financial safety and our ability to cope in the event of widowhood or divorce." No statement has been more true.

This fascinating and immensely helpful book is a wakeup call to women everywhere.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/book+review" rel="tag">book review</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/financial+intimacy" rel="tag">financial intimacy</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/financial+planning" rel="tag">financial planning</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/estate+planning" rel="tag">estate planning</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/women" rel="tag">women</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/marriage" rel="tag">marriage</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/death" rel="tag">death</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/widowhood" rel="tag">widowhood</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/married" rel="tag">married</a>]]> <![CDATA[Helga Hayse]]> <![CDATA[husband]]> <![CDATA[husbands]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis is a Virtual Assistant and freelance writer who has been published hundreds of times in print and on the internet.

         <title>Article Marketing Is Not Dead... If You Know How To Revive It!</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Article-Marketing-Is-Not-Dead----If-You-Know-How-To-Revive-It-/431191</link>
         <description>Change in life is inevitable, and that includes article marketing. Used by millions, this marketing technique has made money for many, but for others, it just plain hasn't worked. Article marketing must be done responsibly and consistently over time in order to deliver results. It isn't a "get-rich-quick" technique, but those who follow the trends in article marketing can prosper.

In order to get the most out of your article marketing, you'll want to stay aware of changing techniques and hire someone to help you with writing or submission if needed. 

To help get you started, I have listed the top ten changes that have taken place in article marketing over the years:

1. Create - or have someone create for you - original articles for your web site and do not use them for submission. This will draw search engines to your site and you can advertise this fresh content in your byline to entice readers to click your link.

2. Pay more attention to titles. Do your keyword research first and use your top three keywords at the beginning of the title. Use power words such as "daring," "remarkable" and "urgent.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+marketing" rel="tag">article marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+submission+sites" rel="tag">article submission sites</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/marketing+with+articles" rel="tag">marketing with articles</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+directories" rel="tag">article directories</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/internet+marketing" rel="tag">internet marketing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+newsgroups" rel="tag">article newsgroups</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+writing" rel="tag">article writing</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/article+d" rel="tag">article d</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis is an article marketing expert who uses the technique daily for herself and her clients.

         <title>Pubic Hair Design With Stencils Tutorial</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Pubic-Hair-Design-With-Stencils-Tutorial/400353</link>
         <description>What you'll need:

Clear shaving gel so you can see where you are shaving
Aftershave astringent with salicylic acid 
Comb
Scissors
Razor
Stencil pencil
Stencils
Mirror

Introduction

Creating works of art with pubic hair is not a new idea. Artworks from thousands of years ago show that men and women removed or styled their pubic hair by plucking or scraping off the hair. Ouch! Fortunately, there are now products made specifically for grooming pubic hair and this includes special shaving cream or gel, lotions, antiseptics and stencils. Some of the popular designs for pubic hair are the basic bikini (an inverted triangle), diamond, landing strip, heart, star, happy face, butterfly, check mark, lips and a square! Follow the steps below to create a beautiful design that will make you feel sexy with your clothes on or off!

Step 1 Buy the supplies you that you need

Purchase clear shaving gel made for pubic hair so you can see where you are shaving, an aftershave astringent with salicylic acid, stencils, a stencil pencil, a small comb, scissors, a mirror and a razor with new blades.

Step 2 Trim your hair

Decide if you need to trim your pubic hair before shaving.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/pubic+hair+design" rel="tag">pubic hair design</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/pubic+hair+stencils" rel="tag">pubic hair stencils</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/hair+removal" rel="tag">hair removal</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/shaving+pubic+hair+tutorial" rel="tag">shaving pubic hair tutorial</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+line" rel="tag">bikini line</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+hair" rel="tag">bikini hair</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/shaving" rel="tag">shaving</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Hair+Care+Down+There" rel="tag">Hair Care Down There</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/landing+strip" rel="tag">landing strip</a>]]> <![CDATA[shav]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis is a Virtual Assistant and prolific writer on assignment.

         <title>Just In Time For Summer: The Ultimate Shaving Kit Review</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Just-In-Time-For-Summer--The-Ultimate-Shaving-Kit-Review/330715</link>
         <description>Hair Care Down There is an e-commerce beauty company that creates products exclusively for pubic hair grooming. They recently relaunched their flagship product, The Ultimate Shaving Kit, in time for summer. The kit won the "Cosmopolitan's Beauty Award for the Best Bikini-line Beautifier". The formulas, Shave, Soothe & Smooth, were designed by a woman chemist to eliminate the rashes, ingrown hair, bumps and itching that some people experience after they groom their pubic hair.

The first thing I noticed when I received The Ultimate Shaving Kit, a Hair Care Down There exclusive, was the cute waterproof aqua carry-all case. The case keeps the pubic hair grooming formulas and tools discreetly stored between uses and there are extra pockets if you want to add some of your own beauty supplies.

Inside the case I found:

* A style guide.
* The three signature products: Shave, Soothe & Smooth.
* Round-tipped safety scissors with a rubber grip.
* Lightweight and narrow cartridge razor.
* 2-sided magnifying mirror.
* Brush and comb.
* Heart and landing strip stencils and stencil pencil.
* Decorative bindi adhesive jewels to enhance your design.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+hair" rel="tag">bikini hair</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+line+removal" rel="tag">bikini line removal</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+shave" rel="tag">bikini shave</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/bikini+wax" rel="tag">bikini wax</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/body+hair+removal" rel="tag">body hair removal</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Brazilian+wax" rel="tag">Brazilian wax</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Hair+Care+Down+There" rel="tag">Hair Care Down There</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/hair+removal" rel="tag">hair removal</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/how+to+shave+a+landing+strip" rel="tag">how to shave a landing strip</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis is a beauty product addict and expert product reviewer.

         <title>Famous Psychics - Allison DuBois</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Famous-Psychics---Allison-DuBois/138720</link>
         <description>Allison DuBois is the real woman who inspired the television show, Medium. She was born on January 24, 1972, in Phoenix, Arizona, and even as a child, Allison knew that she was different from the other kids. She had one of her first life-after-death encounters with her great-grandfather after his funeral. She says she always identified with characters like Tabitha on the television show Bewitched because she knew they were different in the same way she was. Allison was careful about sharing any of these feelings with adults, though. 

At about the age of 10, Allison was told by beings she has since identified as her guides that she really was special and that she would have an important impact on people when she was older. 

Her guides continued to communicate with her during her teens, and while she wasn't sure who was speaking to her, she knew that the source was good and she wasn't afraid. Allison always felt connected to a Higher Power, but traditional church services made no sense to her. It seems as though the adults at church ˜sang about one thing and then practiced another.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Allison+DuBois" rel="tag">Allison DuBois</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/psychics" rel="tag">psychics</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/medium" rel="tag">medium</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/spirits" rel="tag">spirits</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/channeling" rel="tag">channeling</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/new+age" rel="tag">new age</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/past+lives" rel="tag">past lives</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/reincarnation" rel="tag">reincarnation</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/ghosts" rel="tag">ghosts</a>]]> <![CDATA[hauntings]]> <![CDATA[We Are Their Heaven]]> <![CDATA[the new age center]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Bonnie Jo Davis enjoys exploring and writing about spirituality and the paranormal.
