Increase Web Traffic With New Service Offered by AdWebTraffic.com
The task of most internet merchants is to get enough people to stroll by the windows in the form of effective web traffic. A new service, AdWebTraffic, launched in April, offers many options for webmasters who need to buy website traffic by achieving customized traffic objectives.
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) May 15, 2014
AdWebTraffic says the key to being able to structure individualized traffic plans for clients is working with a wide advertising network that owns millions of expired domains. These domains have been bought back through auctions, and the network uses software to categorize and manage the traffic generated from them. That traffic is leased and redirected to the AdWebTraffic system which uses tracking script to filter and redirect it to advertisers’ websites.
The firm enhances the web traffic growth realized by clients with increased product or service visibility through advanced social media marketing, submission to website directories and utilization of other direct and indirect marketing strategies.
All this sounds complicated only because it is, but AdWebTraffic invites questions about how their new tools can tailor traffic generating campaigns which work. The staff takes great care to be sure their strategies and tools meet best practice standards. At the same time, they remain accessible and easy for clients to use.
Although the new website launched fairly recently, there are many testimonials from the development phase and the period since launch to give prospects a sense of how the new systems perform. Those interested in knowing more are invited to discuss individual project needs with the AdWebTraffic customer service team.
Services are divided into four divisions. Clients can buy website traffic, adult traffic, casino traffic, or Geo Targeted Traffic.
Website traffic helps generate a steady stream of Internet window shoppers which will result in more sales and more word-of-mouth. An engaging graphic or an intriguing headline can be all a customer needs to click an ad and eventually make a purchase.
The adult entertainment industry is booming and is one of those few instances where sex literally sells. AdWebTraffic has the tools and knowledge needed to dramatically increase adult traffic levels.
Starting any business is a high risk, high reward game of chance, but recent and continuing advances in computer and various other forms of technology make success in driving up website Casino Traffic a sure thing.
The cost of Geo Targeted Traffic may be a little more than bulk web traffic or niche targeted traffic. However, it usually produces more return on investment (ROI) than other traffic types.
AdWebTraffic is headquartered in Osaka-City, Japan, with a satellite office in Istanbul, Turkey, and the mailing and support office in Las Vegas, Nevada. Details on their services can be found on AdWebTraffic.com. Questions are welcome any time through the contact form on the site, by e-mail at service(at)adwebtraffic(dot)com or by phone to the international number during business hours - +1-213-233-9400.

Kovels.com Top 20 Antiques and Collectibles Searches for April 2014
Cash registers are No. 14 on Kovels' Top 20 list. Cash registers are hot collectibles, but will they soon be relics?
Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) May 15, 2014
The Kovels' Top 20 list is based on the results of hundreds of thousands of searches that took place on its website during April 2014. Cash registers (No. 14 on this month’s list) show up on Kovels’ Top 20 list a few times a year, but they may soon be relics. Cash registers are hot collectibles, now selling for a few hundred up to a few thousand dollars. But money is changing and experts suggest we are transitioning to a cashless society. Forty-nine percent of Americans carry less than $20 in paper money and 9 percent go without cash entirely, according to a recent survey. Will credit cards and virtual digital currency like bitcoin replace old-school cash transactions? If so, cash registers may soon be disappearing from stores.
In the 19th century, shopkeepers kept an eye on their money with a cash register. An elaborate cast-metal case with a locked till, a calculator, and a roll of paper to record transactions meant security and records for the shop owner. The first commercially successful cash register was invented in 1878 by a saloon owner in Dayton, Ohio. Early cash registers rang sales all the way up to $99.99. Inflation made new machines necessary and higher dollar amounts help to date collectible registers.
Run a small business? A cash register is still needed. Old cash registers are still prized by restaurant or shop owners who want a vintage look. This brass National Cash Register, Model 452, was made about 1915 and has an oak base. It sold for $780 at a Las Vegas auction.
The Kovels’ Top 20 list for April 2014 shows antique enthusiasts busy researching: 1) Occupied Japan, 2) Fenton, 3) Coca-Cola, 4) Stoves, 5) Depression Glass, 6) Wedgwood, 7) Bavaria, 8) McCoy, 9) Capo-Di-Monte, 10) Delft, 11) Satsuma, 12) Hull, 13) Lamps, 14) Cash Register, 15) Belleek, 16) Lighters, 17) Wade, 18) Red Wing, 19) Perfume Bottles, 20) Carnival Glass.

LawyersandSettlements.com Provides Overview of Actos Litigation as Latest Actos Lawsuit Trial is Underway in Las Vegas
The alleged link between Takeda’s Actos diabetes drug and bladder cancer continues to hear arguments in the nation’s courts amidst a backdrop of sanctions and chastisements over destroyed documents and misconduct. LawyersandSettlements.com provides an update on Actos lawsuit progress.
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) May 15, 2014
Amidst a backdrop of court records showing jury awards for plaintiffs in previous Actos cases that were later vacated*, and censure by the court over destroyed documents in another case**, comes word that sanctions have been issued against attorneys representing the defendant in yet another Actos lawsuit in Nevada *****. LawyersandSettlements.com looks at the recent court proceedings and provides an update on what’s been going on with Actos litigation.
The most recent Actos lawsuit is Cipriano v. Takeda Pharmaceuticals America Inc., Case No. A680922, and Triana v. Takeda Pharmaceuticals America Inc., Case No. A680556, in the Clark County Court in Nevada ***, which involves two separate cases with similar circumstances that have been combined into one trial. However, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal (4/7/14), presiding judge Kerry Earley announced***** on April 30th that she would instruct the jury before closing arguments that attorneys representing Takeda engaged--in the Court’s view--in misconduct and repeated violations of pretrial orders relating to topics and subject matters deemed off limits prior to the trial commencing.
According to the April 30th Review-Journal article, Judge Earley also stated that she would be articulating for the jury an adverse instruction related to the spoliation, and destruction of evidence first brought to light in the Allen trial.** Specifically, court records for In Re: Actos (Pioglitazone) Products Liability Litigation MDL No. 6:11-md-2299, show Takeda was sanctioned over the destruction of documents related to Actos and the association of pioglitazone and bladder cancer. Takeda had previously been instructed that documents related to Actos should be preserved. However, they were not – moving the Court in the Allen trial to censure Takeda† for failure to preserve evidence.
Meanwhile, according to court documents and a follow-up article in the Review-Journal, an expert witness for the plaintiffs in the Las Vegas Actos trial, Dr. Robert Cunitz, testified April 7th that in his view, after reading through a series of Actos package insert warnings dating back to the year during which Actos was granted approval by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1999, “there was no warning provided matching any of the criteria we have” he testified. “It wasn’t there.” **** The Court heard that Takeda eventually updated its Actos warning label relative to the risk for Actos bladder cancer in July, 2011 in tandem with a warning issued by the FDA†† (6/15/11) stating that continuous use of Actos for more than one year could lead to an increased risk for bladder cancer. During the trial, court documents show the Court heard that Takeda, by way of an email dating back to 2003, expressed concern that altering its label insert could have an adverse impact on sales.****
It has been reported that closing arguments in the current Las Vegas trial could begin as early as May 9th.

Marketing Gurus Design First Ever "Vacation Rental Makeover"
The famous vacation rental gurus Jay William, Matt Landau and the team at Villa Marketers are donating a free vacation rental website and marketing campaign to one lucky contest winner. It's all being done to help owners learn step by step how to market their property successfully.
Las Vegas Nevada (PRWEB) May 15, 2014
Matt Landau and Villa Marketers team up to give owners and managers everywhere the chance to free themselves from their addiction to vacation rental listing websites. Their goal, to help owners and managers everywhere take back control of their vacation rental marketing and financial destiny.
In a bold and unprecedented event these industry gurus donate a custom vacation rental website and a full-fledged marketing campaign to one lucky contest winner, Amy Firmani.
Amy used to be like a lot of vacation rental owners today. Armed with a directory listing with VRBO.com and an email address, Amy simply crossed her fingers and hoped that inquiries for her Las Vegas family villa would come rushing in, unfortunately for Amy, they didn't.
What was Amy to do? The lack of rental bookings had become a financial strain on her family, to the point she wasn't sure if she would keep the property. Amy knew she needed to do more, but her knowledge of websites, blogs, professional photography, and email marketing were limited at best.
The problem Amy was facing is a common one, and until now owners were on their own to figure it all out. That's precisely why this Extraordinary League Of Vacation Rental Experts have joined in to help property owners like Amy everywhere.
You can read Amy's inspirational story on Matt's Vacation Rental Marketing Blog, where he reveals exactly how they've already helped to increase her rental inquiries by more than 250%.
Proving, not only to vacation rental owners and managers, but to everyone that it can be done, and they're doing it under a microscope in the public eye.
In this daring experiment, the team is now pulling back the curtain to reveal the magic of the show.

Villa Marketers specializes in website design, photography services and marketing vacation rentals for owners and property management companies, since 2005. Reported by PRWeb 1 hour ago.
Las Vegas Nevada (PRWEB) May 15, 2014
Matt Landau and Villa Marketers team up to give owners and managers everywhere the chance to free themselves from their addiction to vacation rental listing websites. Their goal, to help owners and managers everywhere take back control of their vacation rental marketing and financial destiny.
In a bold and unprecedented event these industry gurus donate a custom vacation rental website and a full-fledged marketing campaign to one lucky contest winner, Amy Firmani.
Amy used to be like a lot of vacation rental owners today. Armed with a directory listing with VRBO.com and an email address, Amy simply crossed her fingers and hoped that inquiries for her Las Vegas family villa would come rushing in, unfortunately for Amy, they didn't.
What was Amy to do? The lack of rental bookings had become a financial strain on her family, to the point she wasn't sure if she would keep the property. Amy knew she needed to do more, but her knowledge of websites, blogs, professional photography, and email marketing were limited at best.
The problem Amy was facing is a common one, and until now owners were on their own to figure it all out. That's precisely why this Extraordinary League Of Vacation Rental Experts have joined in to help property owners like Amy everywhere.
You can read Amy's inspirational story on Matt's Vacation Rental Marketing Blog, where he reveals exactly how they've already helped to increase her rental inquiries by more than 250%.
Proving, not only to vacation rental owners and managers, but to everyone that it can be done, and they're doing it under a microscope in the public eye.
In this daring experiment, the team is now pulling back the curtain to reveal the magic of the show. It's eye-opening to watch the marketing and authoritative design expertise of Jay William, coupled with Matt Landau’s skillfully structured step by step guide on their latest project lasvegasvillarental.com says Brian Meagle of VRMW.

CAPE-Related Concerns About The Stock Market Miss The Point
*FA Insights is a daily newsletter from Business Insider that delivers the top news and commentary for financial advisors.**Why CAPE-Based Concerns About The Stock Market Miss The Point (The AllianceBernstein Blog)*
In a recent New York Times article titled "Time to Worry About Stock Market Bubbles," Robert Shiller points out that based on his cyclically adjusted price earnings (CAPE) ratio, stocks have only been this expensive three times in the past. The CAPE ratio can be derived by dividing the S&P 500 by the average of ten years worth of earnings. But Joseph G. Paul at AllianceBernstein thinks CAPE concerns are missing the point. "If you look behind the averages and into the historical drivers of earnings and the multiples that investors are willing to pay for those earnings, the picture looks less grim," Paul writes.
This is because 1. "Shiller’s current CAPE multiple of 25 times implies adjusted earnings for the S&P 500 Index of about $75, a full 30% below the market’s current trailing earnings. A drop of that magnitude would take a recession-level collapse in revenues and margins. Is that a plausible expectation?" 2. "The discount rate used to value earnings. Discount rates are related to the prevailing rate of interest. Today, rates are well below average, whether long term or recent. Lower rates argue for higher multiples."
With that said, Paul writes that "it’s important that investors adjust their perspective to accommodate this new reality and evaluate stocks relative to their alternatives—not simply relative to history—to improve the chances of meeting their long-term goals."
*Asset Managers Have Been Too Liberal In Their Description Of Alternative Investments (The Wall Street Journal) *
Asset managers increasingly claim to offer alternative investments in an effort to attract more investors. But this practice is distorting the true nature of alternatives writes Michael Kitces The term that was once used for distinct asset classes like real estate and commodities, now includes hedge funds, risk parity etc. "While both types of “alternatives” may meet the classic requirement that they have low correlation to traditional investments, to characterize both in the same manner fails to recognize the source of the returns," writes Kitces.
He suggests that people that are invested in an alternative, double check "whether it truly is in your portfolio because it represents an alternative asset class, or whether it’s simply an active manager trying to add value."
*Mutual Fund Fees Are Falling** (Morningstar)*
Fund fees fell in 2013, with the average mutual fund charging 1.25% today, down from 1.28% in 2012, and 1.47% in 2013. "Fund fees dropped in 2013 courtesy of the huge stock market rally that year," writes Russel Kinnel at Morningstar. "Market rallies cause the total assets under management of the fund industry to grow tremendously and that in turn triggers breakpoints in mutual fund management fees. Those breakpoints are built into a fund's fee structure so a fund charges less for each additional dollar managed over various AUM thresholds."
*David Tepper: 'I Am Nervous. I Think It's Nervous Time'** (Business Insider)*
David Tepper, head of $20 billion distressed debt hedge fund Appaloosa Management, expressed some concern about the stock market at the SALT Conference in Las Vegas. "I think we're OK. But, listen, there's times to make money and there's times not to lose money," Tepper said. "This is probably you're supposed to think about preserving some of your money...I think you can still be long, but I think you're supposed to have some cash now." Tepper said he is "nervous," that the stock market is "getting dangerous" and that he's not saying go short, but "just don't go too friggin long."
*UBS Appoints Paul Hatch As New Group Managing Director** (Reuters)*
UBS has hired Paul Hatch to oversee its wealth management unit in the Americas, reports Jed Horowitz at Reuters. Hatch comes in at group managing director and head of Advice and Solutions "to consolidate oversight of the products and services the firm's 7,000 brokers to sell to 'high net worth' and 'ultra high net worth' clients'," writes Horowitz. Hatch is an industry veteran, having started his career in the brokerage industry and E.F. Hutton & Co, he then moved to Citigroup in 1993, and stayed with Smith Barney until a few years ago. Hatch's appointment is part of a bigger shake up.
