Hi folks,
I hope this finds you all well and enjoying the last few days of Winter.
I must appologize for not publishing the Newsletter in February and for not letting you know. I had personal family matters to attend to and, to make matters even worse, I somehow acquired a terrible computer virus.
I didn't want to email anyone because the virus somehow hijacked my anti-virus, my firewall, and changed some of my browser settings. It was a terrible mess. I ended up uninstalling my Norton Anti-Virus and Firewall, downloading a new (free) anti-virus program and updating my windows program.
The problem seems to be cleared up now and I can send emails without fear of passing along any viruses. By the way, I'll mention the free anti-virus in the Useful Tips section below.
By the way, I've put up a new website to sell one of our excellent products, the Veriuni All Purpose, All Natural Cleaner. I have been using this cleaner and can tell you that it is a great cleaner and saves a ton of money. Take a look and let me know what you think:

I hope you all have a good month and I wish you the very best.

**FEATURE ARTICLE**
FFA - Should You Or Shouldn't You
by Randy Justason
Whether you are an experienced online marketer or just starting out in your own home based business, you've probably heard someone tell you to FFA.
No, they were not being rude!
Actually FFA stands for Free For All, and Free For All sites are advertising sites. Whether you should use them or not is your choice.
In order to help you make an informed decision, I offer you this article.
There are literally millions of FFA sites on the internet. All one has to do is to go to any search engine and type FFA into the search box. With most of them you have to register before you can submit an ad and there is good reason for this, as you will see below.
Normally all you get to put on FFA sites is a one line ad linking to one URL. You usually get the opportunity to choose a category for your ad, so that may help a bit. Unfortunately, you can't say much in one line so you better make your ad stand out.
Another thing you should know is that most of the people visiting FFA sites are other advertisers placing their ads. That could actually be a plus if you are advertising something that online marketers may be looking for.
Of course, there is always a downfall to that. Today many marketers have access to programs that will submit their ads to the FFA sites automatically, therefore there may actually be very few visitors to the site.
Something else you should be aware of is that every time you place an ad on a FFA site you will receive an email back confirming your submission. If you place hundreds of these daily, you are going to get hundreds of emails. A good idea is to get yourself a free email account (such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Lycos, etc) and use that email address instead of your normal home email address. It won't take long before it is overloaded with spam.
Now you may ask yourself, why use FFA sites if I can't say much about my product, nobody is going to read it anyway and I'm going to get tons of spam?
Good question.
Remember I mentioned about registering? Well, the owner of the FFA site gets to send a confirmation email out to every advertiser who posts an ad. If you think about it for a minute you will see that could mean sending hundreds of emails a day. And hundreds of ads!
That's right, every confirmation email will have the owners ad in it. And that, my friends, is the upside of FFAs. Free advertising for you!
You simply sign up for a free FFA site of your own, set up your email using the site's autoresponder and let it do it's thing. Every time someone places an ad, they automatically receive your email with your ad in it. And, if you have your own web site, simply put a small ad on it somewhere giving people the opportunity to place free ads and send them to your FFA site.
Most FFA sites will also let you upgrade, for a fee, and be able to collect the email addresses of every person who posts an ad. This could help you build your own email list, however, unless you have something of value to keep them interested, most of them will unsubscribe.
There is another small plus for using FFA sites. If you are advertising your own web site all of the ads you place using your web site's URL gives you another link back to your site. Although most search engines place little value on this type of link for ranking purposes, I believe any link back to your site is of value, especially since many search engines use spiders to find sites by following links.
So there you have it, FFA sites, should you use them or not? It's up to you.

**LAUGH A LITTLE**
1. Ever wonder about those people who spend $2.00 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backwards!
2. 90% of men kiss their wife goodbye when they leave the house. The rest kiss their house goodbye when they leave their wife.
------------------------------------------------------ **USEFUL TIP OF THE MONTH**
Having just gone through the agony of getting a virus and practically ruining my computer, I want to let you know what I did to fix it.
January/February were extremely busy months for me offline and I didn't spend much time on the computer. Someone else used my computer to download something from a gaming site and I believe they downloaded a virus also.
When I did finally get back to it, I found that my Norton Anti-Virus had been disabled and I couldn't enable it no matter what I tried. Also my Norton Firewall would not let me access it (said I needed Supervisor status). When I opened my browser to surf the net, I could not get to any secure sites (banking, SFI, etc). And, my Google Toolbar was gone. What a mess I had.
I took the following steps to fix the problem:
1. I went to two different online virus scanning sites and did a scan of my computer from their sites. This found some viruses but did not fix my problems.
2. I uninstalled both Norton Anti-Virus and Norton Firewal (my annual subscription to updates was about to expire anyway so it really didn't cost me anything).
3. I searched on Google for "Anti-Virus" and "reviews" and found several sites. I clicked on the first one, a very highly rated, popular site and read their reviews on Anti-virus programs. What a surprise I got.
4. Out of the top three rated anti-virus programs, two were paid programs and one was a free program. And, to top it off, the free program was rated as number 2 and Norton Anti-Virus was rated number 3. I can't remember right off what the number 1 program was, however, if you wish to know what it was, I'm sure I can find it again. Just let me know if you want to know what it is.
5. I went to the site of the free Anti-Virus program, read all about it and downloaded it.
6. Next I went to the new Anti-Virus site and got the latest virus definitions (over 4 mb).
7. As soon as I installed it, I did a complete scan of my computer and, guess what, it found a virus (trojan) and deleted it.
8. Next, I went to www.microsoft.com and did a Windows Update to make sure I have all of the latest security updates.
9. I then re-installed the Google Toolbar.
My system is now up to date and seems to be working perfectly. What a relief.
The name of the anti-virus program is: AVG Anti-Virus 7.0 Free Edition (they also have an upgrade available for a fee, highly recommended). You can download your own copy of the program at: http://www.mlmwonders.com/antivirus.html
------------------------------------------------------- **RESOURCES**
1. Writing articles is probably one of the best methods of getting your name and website recognized and of getting links back to your website.
Two of the best article submission services that I use are www.goarticles.com and www.ezinearticles.com.
If you write an interesting article and submit it to just these two sites, you can be assured it will be seen by many many webmasters looking for content for their own sites.
As an example, the article I wrote in Jan's Newsletter and submitted to www.goarticles.com , has been downloaded over 150 times from that one site. If even half of those downloads are for content on other sites, then I have increased my incoming links by 75.
That is a great way to get better rankings on seach engines.
