AgMarketOnline.com is enjoying it's success as a place to advertise and promote our clients and what they have to offer.  The website is advertised on our radio network of over 20 major radio stations in NE, CO, MT, ND, SD, KS and NM and is getting hundreds of unique visitors every day.  We built AgMarketOnline to help encourage those who are doing business with us to do business with others in the same network.  Everyone knows about Google.  However, I am sure that anyone who has done a search on Google realizes that the monster search engine often times produces quite irrelevant results and isn't organized by Category or Type of Business or anything for that matter.  It's one big search engine with millions of unrelated sites.  AgMarketOnline.com is a well organized website that is agriculturally focused, but includes more than just 'Ag' products or services. Besides, 'Ag' people buy the same things city people do!

Some people might think that their website or business doesn't fit well on an agriculturally focused website.  Therefore, we have expanded our Advertising Cooperative to include several other non-ag search sites.  The first major website I built in 1996 was www.1bestdirectory.com.  This little search engine has received over a quarter million visitors over the years and will soon be completely revamped along with the next search site I built called The Internet Gold Pages at www.internetgoldpages.com.  We have also purchased www.1bestsearch.com and www.onebestsearch.com and will be utilizing these as well.

Here's the best news for you... Our clients' websites will be listed on all of these at NO CHARGE as long as you are a hosting client!  Our AgMarketOnline Members will also receive the additional exposure at no additional charge.

We are constantly striving to improve our clients' websites.  One of the most important parts of any website is it's contact form.  Hackers and Spammers build computer robots to submit bogus information and potentially dangerous files through contact forms.  We are busy implementing a new methodology that will discourage this and at the same time improve the quality of the contacts you receive.  To ensure the more secure forms work, we MUST have your CURRENT email address on file.  Visit your Control Panel and update your account info with your current email address you want contacts sent to!

Last month we told you that we have SpamAssassin, a leading Server Based application that MARKS any suspected email with ***SPAM*** in the subject line so that you can set up a simple filter to Delete these emails automatically. Here's how to do that...

For Outlook Express : click on Tools, Message Rules, Mail, New, check Where the subject line contains words, check Delete It, click on contains specific words, enter ***SPAM*** in the box, click Add, click OK 3 times.

For Incredimail : click on Tools, Message Rules, Add, select If Subject Line Contains, type ***SPAM*** in the box, select Delete It and click OK.

Testimonials are like pictures... they're worth a thousand words!  We will be featuring testimonials from our clients in future newsletters and on several of our websites, so be sure to submit yours to us.  It's just another way to bring more attention to your website!  You can email your testimonials to support@halemultimedia.com.
