Creating a Simple Company Mission Statement





Every Company and/or Website Needs Several Pages. An About Me/ Us Page, a Contact Page, a Homepage, a Landing Page, a Squeeze Page, and along with these they should have a Mission Statement.
Today I Created a Simple Little Web-site's Mission Statement for my PW&OSfStSM Website

This is the first one I have ever created and it is an example that I will post upon my Contact Page.

When building a website you will need several pages. And they should be rather easy to read short and to the point, they should be.

But we don't see too many of these at least not on my website. so here is the Mission Statement I created in about ten minutes off the top of my head for my Website today.
PW&OSfStSM Mission Statement

We here at JMK’s Babydog and PW&OSfStSM

We firmly believe in Fair Play and Family Orientation. We believe the Whole World is one big dysfunctional Family. We are seeking to bring her together and heal her wounds, as well as enlighten as many of her children as we can.

We believe this can be done through the Golden Rules of Christianity and Love. We are Dreamers and we are Believers of many things. For all things are possible unto us through our Father GOD in Heaven.

We seek to share the Knowledge we have gained and will try to gain better and increasing knowledge as we grow. We will Share what we gain where and whenever possible, and as easily and as affordable as we can.

We are starting with Poetry Writes & Other Stuff from Sinbad the Sailor Man. This is our first real time learning website and Its Beta test. And we have much to learn as we try to earn here on the World Wide Web.

Poetry Writes and Other Stuff is dedicated to furthering and encouraging Would be Poets and Writers, to create and share their works with the world. For we all have something to contribute. Father has given every last one of us; a gift.

If it is only a smile and we wish to share these as well. By sharing our thoughts and dreams with these Poets and Writers. By providing a learning website which teaches them to seek and to find. As well as encourages them by leading the way, by showing them how.

PW&OSfStSM is an actual attempt from the Owner and CEO of our company. To create and maintain this Learning and Encouraging Website. He does this mostly by example through the Site Itself. The site is up and working and is in a state of constant evaluations or change.



The site currently has a total of four Blogs, three Domains, or Web addresses, three pay Per Click Publishers and a variety of passive and interactive income streams. Ad Space rentals, Adsense from Google, and Affiliations along with Clickbank too.

Our aim is to show and lead the way for these Would be Writers and Poets as well as Songwriters and Producers of armature films, an Artist with their works of art to Just Do It. To get out and try to do it on the inter-net.

We wish to inspire Do Bees, those who are a little Old Schooled and those who wish to be a little New Schooled. We are all a creation of God’s and we are Wonderfully and Mysteriously made by Him and we wish to propagate that message.

And promote Peace and Goodwill among the Children of this world. Our World the only one that we currently have. We seek to Earn as we Learn and to Grow as we Go. We are looking forward to the day that Somebody will come and Play with us. The day that we all will play well together and cherish the time that we do have here with our Mother, our World, our Earth, and our Home.


Thank you! For taking the time to read our first Mission Statement statement ;o)

This is a simple thing to do. And it will give your readers and potential customers a bit more of your focus or your company's focus.

You create things like mission statement's to connect with or to reveal a side of yourself and/or company that your visitor and customer wouldn't normally see. You should give then, Honesty and track-able beliefs, morals, and/or standards that you truly believe in.

Remember you are hoping to build a relationship with your customers and readers. You are building up their trust and your reputation. You/ Product and your Brand are the first things a consumer ever connects with. Then maybe your beliefs and or content. If they don't trust you, they won't trust your content. And trust must be earned and maintained.

Here your Mission Statement, It sets the standards that you hold yourselves too. And believe me people do read these things. I never did, but I do now.

Thanks for your read and Comments.

How I Make Money Writing Poetry Online for My Blogs and Website


 


Making money online writing poetry is difficult, but it is very much an achievable Game Plan. Like any money making system on the Internet, it takes dedication and hard work and lots of time. If anyone tells you any different and/or offers you a get rich quick scheme, that involves profits for / from your poetry. They are borderline nuts or insane. They are lost in the world of fantasy.



The World Wide Web is a global internet and so the chances of people reading your poetry is in fact higher; than if you published them in a karzy poetry contest, magazine, or a local newspaper. After all, our goal as poets, should be; above anything else: to have our poems read. By as many people as possible!

With this in mind, I will describe the way I show off my poetry to a wide audience whilst at the same time enjoying a stream of residual income that grows as I go and allows you to earn as you learn and hone your craft as a writer/poet.

I want to clearly say to you now, that this is purely a way to make a little extra money which will build up over the weeks, months, and years to come. And as you continue to produce your body of works. In turn this will eventually make a nice contribution to your overall earnings.

Collect some of the poems you've written over the years and sort them into subject categories. For example, you might have a dozen poems about your dog or cats, or maybe some old love poems you wrote when you were in High School or College. Take your time and weed out the good poems from the not so good and place them accordingly at different sites.

Now you can form them into a PDF document which can later be made into an E-book. Decide on a title and write an introduction relating to the poems. Finalize the basic structure, contents page and order in which the poems appeared on the Inter-net. Place in some clip-art or full page black and whites or full color photos.

Before you do anything else with them, set them up in either a small website or Blog. Come up with a suitable website address and title which is keyword rich in relation to poetry and other interests. It is vital that you have the keywords right and somewhere in the web address itself. This will help people find your page or site. More so than it would if you had something like Myhomepage.com

Put a few partial poems on this website or Blog so visitors can see what your poetry style is like and whether they want to read more. I call them Teasers on my website and Blog. place the full poem with the many Pay Per Click Publishers out there Like Hubpages.com, Triond.com or wikinut.com etc. etc.

Create your first Ebook from these that you have then place at these PPC Publisher site on your Website and Blogs. Set a price for your Ebook of these writes; which is on the low side. You can always raise the price when visitor numbers increase. 

There are many sources of free E-Book makers as well as software and shareware tools. That you can use to make an E-Book.

Join some affiliate programs, Amazon, Adsense by Google, and Clickbank place their ads and links around on your websites pages and on your Blog's sidebars. This will add a further long term stream of passive and residual income earnings. 

Don't go overboard with this or people will be turned off and see your website and Blog posts as adverts only, with some poems stuck in between.

When you get a few web-pages and a month or two of Blog posts, you are ready to promote it to the world. Show them your poems and poetry Ebooks. 

Join forums, and Social Networking sites and tell as many people as you possibly can. Study some SEO (Search Engine Optimization) techniques which will help you get picked up by the major search engines. Learn Your Keywords and learn them well.

As time goes by and It must in order for you to grow. The number of people signing up to your E-mail list should begin to increase. Now you can create further categories for your website by using your poems and writes. 

When you find new E-books, Products, or Services. You can then try to promote them at your websites and Blogs. You can then notify your mailing list. If they trust, know, and like you and your opinions enough they are more than likely to buy from you and your sites rather than another persons website. Plus they will tell their friends about you and your sites.

Again, the more people you can get to join your list, the more people will buy your future recommendations on Products, E-books, and Services. 

This is a long term strategy and one that will not make you rich overnight. However, if you love writing poetry and get excited by the prospect of a great many people reading your work. And also want some extra money from your poems, this is a perfect marriage of the two.

If you do it right and persevere, your earnings will increase steadily month after month, year after year. You will Earn as you Learn and Grow as you Go! If you keep on learning and growing. You will really have nothing to lose but some spare Time. 

Check out my Website: Poetry Writes & Other Stuff from Sinbad the Sailor Man. Learn by observing, learn by doing! Seek and you shall find. Happy Hunting pay attention to the little things x marks the spot. http://www.sinbadthesailorman.com

My Try at Building a Passive Income Business Model a Streamed Website




Updated on May 3, 2013
               
                                                       
               
                                   

My Three Year Plan is Off and Running

Creating multiple passive income streams is everyone's dream. In order to make this happen, you have to understand exactly what the passive income is. I'm going to share with you today the business model that allows me to work just two hours a day. Not Today! But in my near future, but not today! 

Yet to pull in a full time, CEO-sized income. I will have to do all the work, that the company employees would do during those first years or start up years. To get  this Founder/ CEO/Owner to this relaxed salary of his.

Before we get into it, I just wanted to mention that this isn't the only business model out there obviously.

There are at least a million of them out there today. As well there are many things you can do Online and Offline to generate a decent income, but this is the business model that I choose to use. Because for one; I am physically disabled with learning disabilities and I have many things that keep me from working any 9-5 job still today.

But all that aside I am getting along. The other reasons are It's relatively cheap and easy to setup. It's a very low risk for me to attempt It or try it for a year or three! (What have you got to lose?) 

I have only time to lose. For I have lost almost everything else already at least once or twice.

After it is setup properly It will almost run itself on autopilot. Which means you don't have to be present in order to complete a transaction every day that it is working.

You can implement this business model “on the side and in bits and pieces”. For an extra income in addition to your other job or jobs. 

You can make money at any time of the day or anytime of the night. Also from anywhere in the world and this can be done 365 days a year. No holidays, no employees if you wish, as long as the internet and World Wide Web are you are. And you're in business every where you are seen. To anyone who can pay with your payment options.

Now of course that is if you are selling something or plan to sell a Hard item or services. I am not! Not just yet, but this is my long term goal. Once this business model gets going you too can try and duplicate it yourselves.

Than expand It into other markets, hobbies, and what knots. Those of/ with your own interests. And then create multiple passive income streams of your own choosing. If all goes well, you'll have the freedom and time to do whatever it is you want to do. 

As this is what am I planning on. With this my Little Venture or Adventure as I like to call it. One that I have started back in July of 2010. these Ventures are seldom Overnight successes if ever they succeed.

Do You Know What Passive Income Is?

This Venture uses a lot of what I am calling passive income streams. In truth if you listen to the IRS these are not claimable as passive income. But that's a write for another day.

I call them passive because as the old saying goes you set it and then forget it. But in all actually never do this for it will not boil if you stop watching the pot! Bizarro world, I know things work differently then we have become accustomed to here in the real world. Than they do on the Inter-net.

Hmm… cheap, easy, low-risk, and high-reward? Sounds like a winning business plan to me. That is, If all goes well. But what can go wrong? Well right now the only thing I can see so far is. That I or we lose our focus and our desires to achieve this goal.

Exactly how does my passive income business model work? Well that's just It. I am still trying to figure this out. Also, I am trying to help you beginners out there who may not have some of the information needed. As to what products to sell and use yourselves.

I've a Bonus for you all as it is free at this present time. Only because I have not yet, figured out how to charge for it or if I should charge for It. I use Adsense, Tips and Hints, and other things to increase my streams.

Which I will use to quadruple my traffic back to my three domain named Websites. Before I was really focusing hard on creating an information product and/ or E-book or E-creations to sell instead of Passive and Residual incomes. Today I am only focusing on the later two passive and residual income streams.

I am like many of today's stay at home people. I too need extra income, this is why I am trying my best to get this business model built and done or I should say viable and working.

Traditionally women have more experience of multi-tasking, time scheduling, and working towards long term goals. And doing this without a precise structure or fixed hours. 

These are all qualities required to run a small business. Before I was divorced I learned some of these many tasks. Not quickly enough I guess as now I am single.

But most women don't mind asking for help, whereas many men are too proud and try and do everything themselves. Men traditionally went out hunting if they killed anything they brought it home and that was that, but women had the boring, jobs of preparing vegetables, gathering berries, sewing clothes. And many other activities. Knowledge all which are required for starting your own small business(es) of today.

Times have changed some, but not much. My ex-wife and myself, we had changed routines the only difference was she took to hers better than I to mine. Because of my disabilities at the time. I was unable to do half of what she was doing. And now she was doing even more than before. A very good woman I once had and lost because of income and stress.

Another advantage that you ladies have, is that you are used to operating in negative situations, IE. where people disapprove of your methods or simply mock the way you get the job done. This is also the situations that many start-up business owners find themselves in still today.

I've promised myself that these next two years. That I have scheduled out that I would make it work or break it apart and redesign It. At least until these three years are complete. I don't have to make it big or have to justify all the time I spend on my websites, Blogs and writes. 

So I decided to return to schooling myself. I mean the school of Hard Knocks naturally. As I can't afford going back to School either financially or emotionally. Seems like every time I try to something stops me. So I've been reading everything I can on everything I can find on making this venture work.

I think I am on schedule, but yet I have been set back already several times in just these first ten months. And from starting to see any success with this my venture. Which has became an adventure worth the trying. The site is: Poetry Writes & Other Stuff from Sinbad the Sailor Man stop by every once in a while and check us out. Come and see if we are making any head way.

The Income, It isn't all that much today. But hey we all start from Humble beginnings. Somebody Come and Play, Earn while you Learn, and Grow as you Go!

Thank you for you time and any comments are welcome. Donnie/ Sinbad the Sailor Man

The Command Center or Personal Website for Business

 

 

 

What Is a Command Centered Personal Website?

  

Well I am calling my website this, because this is where I do the majority of my daily work from. So in all actuality it is my command center or nerve center; whichever you like, but Command Center sound more appealing to myself.

So why is it a command center? Most people would consider the photo a better description of a Command Center. We can thank the Movies for that. And its true wherever the hardware is, is where the physical work is done.

Well because from there (my website) which is a virtual entity. Upon another virtual entity. I can find all the latest news and hot topics.

I do this at my News Rollers which are on different pages upon my website mixed in with a lot of other information. You can view some of the news rollers on the page entitled: 

Huber Page Come See! Need A Friend Be a Friend!

From here I can see what people are talking about and what they are finding to be interesting for that day. From here I can instantly click to all or any one of my Blogs, Social Networks, Bookmarkers, and Indexers.

I can even check on the Local Weather and find Maps to where I might wish to go. So when I find a topic I do like. I too could Write about It, Blog about It, Mention It, or Link to It.

I Designed the website solely for myself at first; and all my purposes. And yet, now at the same time others can freely and easily traverse through and around in it as well, as I can.

Some even better than myself. Although to them at first it may seem to be a Fun House or disordered treasure map. To others it will make little to no sense at all.

That is because most of them will never make it past the root page or Home page. The Home page or root page is the most visited of almost very website Upon the World Wide Web because it is the websites Landing Page.

For most MLM Marketers and Direct Sellers these are their main Draws, Traps, or Entry ways into their Product(s) or Services.

For me its a way to interest others into following me and my Traffic Wheel. This Traffic Wheel is liken to a Link Wheel. Except it doesn't try and hold you to my website alone or to my Ideals or products alone. In fact it tries to do the opposite.

I will continually try to send you somewhere else. Somewhere else where I am also at waiting for you in the shadows or the very first thing that you'll see, when you arrive. Remember that this website was Built for Me. So try and take notice of what it was and where it was you just left.

Or be sure to take notice to the other one of my Properties that you were sent to. Say an entertainment Blog.

 Much like the new ones I just put up at Blogger.com

They are video Blogs with mostly Youtube and Wikipedia information’s stuffed in them. These are easier builds and easier to maintain. Although there are some draw backs too.

I leave you to find out what they are for yourselves for now. Although I will say they greatly help increase or decease traffic here at home base.

Remember that Sinbad my (alter ego) is a trickster and a bit of a Pirate and He'll not make things easy for you. He will try and derail you and send you away from the map.
But they will help you too! The crew and Donnie that is.

They try and drive the traffic around and through this website or the Captain's Command Center. But much like the CPU in your computer if the traffic doesn't go through It; the CPU. It is lost or meaningless to the Monitors and to the Data Programmers.

That's You and I. These basic systems and the steps that they take are what lead you to the directions that their traffic takes. Here at the website. Whether it is mine, yours, or anyone Else's.
Traffic is always King and is the most needed of all things to earn upon the WWW.

It the traffic needs to come through the Command Center to be accredited. And then given the proper credit or value. Without this. Its off the Grid and free traffic for others to capture, guide, and profit from.
Why?

This is where your Analytic tags are they marked and marking the traffic and tracing it from here to there and it picks up every ounce of information it can. Age, locations, race, sex, education levels, etc.

So it needs to be flowed through the system that can read and define the info It [you the visitor/ subscriber] was tag with by the various other places you just entered or came from.

Every computer does this even your own this is why and how it remembers your preferences and settings when you return to your favorite sites.

Needed Tools for Tracking Traffic

This is one of the major mistakes we all make when trying to earn money on-line. We send the unaccredited traffic; for the work we do, to somewhere or some one else. Thinking we are receiving the credit. So how do we receive the proper credit well I am still working on that myself.

But I know we must code and track our doings which will code and track the Visitors and traffic that come through our website. To even come close to understanding what cause and effects we are having on the Traffic within, outside of, and around of our websites; and our profile pages.

This is Why I Do My Vanity Searches Weekly or Monthly


When I am working on expanding my footprints for the WWW. With these searches. Basic searches on Myself and my websites I can see if the search engines are indexing me or if they have stopped.

I can seen if the Ranking sites have increased or deceased the sites standings. I can also see who or what has taking that pages place upon the web search results.

We can do this with Google Analytics, Adwords, and Adsense too. All of this tracking stuff. As well as registering with the individual Site Rankers and Indexers. I use and recommend Alexa.com on my website.

You'll see it on every page. I use them to track my websites standings world wide and here at Home. It is a review site as well. Although most of us don't leave reviews some of us do.

These Tracking Tools allow you to see where your Traffic comes from and where It goes. When and where it leaves your site. When you sign up with them of course; you'll have to pay to see more.
To see and learn more about this coming and going of your sites traffic.

There is always a learning process and a curbed time period; to learning, with these tools. And a monetary cost is involved when you wish to know more. And you will want to know more I guarantee It.

Information is a commodity here in the real world. And it is used every second of the day by Big Business too!



These are Text Links right above them is a picture link these all allow me easy access to my different programs and web profiles because of my computer saving my Cookies to these sites. so when I click there I see my preferences. Source: Traffic Wheel Links

Easier For Some Than It will be For Others


For some of Us it will be like trying to learn a foreign language; all by ourselves, with out even knowing what language it is. But It is a necessary task that we will need to accomplish; if ever, we wish to understand It.

Traffic that is. For some it won't be necessary to understand It at all; to make it work. It will just work for them because of their daily routines.

As we traverse the WWW we leave a slime trail. Much like a snail or slug would do on a piece of glass; as it crawled along it. After a while that trail dries up and is no longer visible to the naked eye.
Much like the traffic that came and went from our websites.

 Without tracers, trackers, and other individual Rankers watching who has come and went. We would be none the wiser that they were even there. Unless we were lucky enough to have interacted in some way with them while they were.

Most of the web hosts of today provide these Back Office Statics. But most of these are just basic stats and mean little to the average person who is just trying to drive traffic. But they are helpful to those who do.

Could it benefit you if you knew when the busiest time of the day for your Website was? And where It's visitors came from and then went? You bet Ya it Could! Then you could post newer information right before their daily rushes.

If you knew where they came from and where they went to. You could do your best to be there before them or let them know that you go there too. Giving you a common interaction a starting place to interact.

The most important thing we could possibly have is the Proper Knowledge of what our traffic is doing where it is going etc etc. And this will take us all some time to figure out! What that Knowledge is; the particular knowledge we need to convert or that causes a conversion or transaction at our points of sell.

Whether this action is profitable or not, positive, or negative to the flow of our traffic. And if we can change that direction, force, or course of that flow; to benefit our conversions.
Here is my Hubpages widget this I use to show my best, Hottest, and Latest  writes at Hubpages. It will also take me to my Profile page.


Here is my Hubpages widget this I use to show my best, Hottest, and Latest writes at Hubpages. It will also take me to my Profile page.  Source: Traffic Wheel Links


Why use Widgets and Buttons In the First Place?

Hey lets face it we like to click on things just as when we were little kids. Hitting the switches and pushing the buttons was and is an enjoyable thing. To see the Ceiling fan speed up slow down the lights dim and get brighter. Oh even on our games and toys.

These things do stuff and curiosity often gets the best of us. So even though we have become Banner Blind and are not clicking on these anymore.

Because we we already know these things to be Ads or distraction. But yet sometimes we just have to see what it does and might do for us.

Widgets like our Hubpage one are great tools. It is encoded with your referral link. It can show roughly nine of your writes or the writes of your Favorite Hubber friends.

When you place their widget on your sites. And can be placed almost everywhere where simple html is used. Use these tools they'll improve your traffic when you do.



Here is a widget a button and a text link these all allow easy access to where I work and play. All from a single website or page.

Source: Traffic Wheel Links


Can You Monitor All That You Do From One Place?

Right now; no I don't have such a place!

But I have several which allow me to get the information I find helpful to my efforts of driving traffic. They are Google Adsense, Google Analytics, and Alexa.

With our websites being our Command Centers we will see not only the effects of our doings but that of our visitors as well. And how they correspond to our traffic.

But that of those who visit our sites. We can only see the page before and the page after; if these have been tagged by the previous page. With the non paid options you'll get only enough to entice you to pay. And you'll need to pay for the information that makes the Big Business Marketeers foam at the mouth.

I will try and do some writes on the structuring of a website as I get better with doing so. But as it is now I have a very simple and basic site. It is beginning to receive more and more traffic as the months go by.

Again, I am Donald Beres Jr or Donnie / Sinbad the Sailor Man.

The owner/ operator of Poetry Writes & Other Stuff from Sinbad the Sailor Man. I as well have several Blogs on the WWW. That go by the same domain name a Dot Net and a Dot org.I use my poetry writes and other stuff to drive traffic to, through, and around my websites. That are monetized; to try an earn a living.

I started this Venture almost three years ago and I have watched It grow and grow since Its creation. Now I know at a certain point in Time, here in the near future, I hope. I will also begin to see my earnings do the same.

I have been Logging and leaving Information all along the way. Everywhere that I work and play at. And here soon I will start to hide more and more hints and tips within this very website that I have been talking about. I have a few there already.

Watch your pointy things (cursors) closely they will give you a hint to where and what they are. Sometimes they'll lead you no where at all! And some times to a treasure trove of information. But remember! One Mans Garbage is Another Man's Treasure.

Some E-mail Basics & Some Tips from Yahoo Small Business


 

 

Question? What do "Cc:" and "Bcc:" mean?

Cc: stands for "carbon copy." Anyone listed in the Cc: field of a message will receive a copy of that message when you send it.
All other recipients of that message will be able to see that the person you designated as a Cc: recipient has received a copy of the message.
The Cc: field is useful in instances when you wish to share a message with someone but are not requesting that they reply or take any direct action in response.
Bcc: stands for "blind carbon copy." This is similar to the Cc: feature, except that Bcc: recipients are invisible to all of the other recipients of the message (including other Bcc: recipients).

For example, if you send a message To: johndoe@yahoo.com and Bcc: janedoe@yahoo.com, then john-doe will see himself as the message's only recipient, while jane-doe will see that you have also sent the message to john-doe.

The Bcc: field is useful in instances when you don't wish to share your recipients' email addresses with everyone who receives your message.

To send a message, you must always specify at least one recipient in the To: field. If you don't, an error message will appear when you attempt to send the message.

Please note: Sending unsolicited mail, or spam, is a violation of the Yahoo Terms of Service and will not be tolerated.


Top 5 Questions

Question? What are lists, and how do I use them?

Adding a List
Lists are groups of contacts to whom you want to send the same email message. Create a list to quickly send a message to up to 100 email addresses at once.

Here's How
  1. Open your Yahoo Address Book.

  2. Open the "Add List" page in one of the following ways:
    • Click the "Add List" button.


    • Click "Add" next to "Lists" on the sidebar.


    • Use the InstaList feature to create a list from an email message. The "Add List" page appears.

  3. Enter a name for the new list.
    List names cannot contain spaces, commas, or single or double quotes.


  4. To add a contact to the new list, select it from the list on the left or type the contact's email address in the My Contacts field. Then click the "Add" button.


    The selected contact name appears on the new list on the right. The contact is also added to your address book if it is not already included there.

  5. To remove a contact from the list, select that contact from the new list on the right and click the "Remove" button.

    The contact is removed from the current list only, not from your Yahoo Address Book.

  6. When you finish adding contacts to the new list, click the "Save" button.

     

    Question? How do I add a contact?

    There are a number of ways to add contacts to your Yahoo Address Book:

    • Use the Quick Add Contact module at the bottom or top of the address book to easily add new contacts. Enter the information in the fields provided and click the "Add" button.
    • Click the "Add Contact" button on the left side of your address book. Next enter the contact information for the person. Click "Save Contact" when you are finished.
    • Search for people with Yahoo People Search. When you find a contact you would like to add, click the "Add to Address Book" link.
    • Search for businesses with Yahoo Yellow Pages. Click the "Add to Address Book" link when you find a business you would like to add.
    • When you read a message, you can click the "Add to Address Book" link next to the From: field of the email to automatically add the sender's address to your address book.


    Question? How do I edit contact information?

    To edit contact information in your address book, click the "Edit" link to the right of the contact you want to change. Make the necessary changes and click the "Save" button.


    Question? How can I use nicknames to send messages to people in my address book?

    When you enter nicknames in your address book, you can use them to address emails. Nicknames are shortcuts to email addresses in your address book.

    Your Address Auto Complete function recognizes the first few letters of any nickname you type and provides the rest of the name.

    Click "Compose" and type a nickname in the To:, Cc:, or Bcc: field. If you're addressing an email to multiple contacts, Auto Complete separates them for you. Then, compose and send your message.

    To add a nickname to a contact in your address book, follow the steps below:

    1. Click "Edit" to the right of a contact name to see a detailed information listing.
    2. Add a new nickname in the space provided. A nickname must be unique – it can only be used for one contact in your Address Book – and can't contain spaces, commas, or single or double quotes.
    3. Click the "Save" button.

    If you've created categories, the names of these will work just like nicknames. Click "Compose" and type the list name in the To:, Cc:, or Bcc: field. Again, Address AutoComplete will offer you matching email addresses that you can select after typing just a few letters.

    Whichever method you choose, your recipients will see their names as you entered them into your address book, not as nicknames or the names of categories.


    Question? What's the difference between synchronization ("Sync") and Import/Export?

    Anyone who has used import/export to keep data from multiple sources consistent knows the problems it can cause: duplicate data and overwritten changes.

    For example, let's say you want identical data in your Palm Pilot and your Yahoo Address Book.

    While at home, you add John Doe to your Yahoo Address Book, and later you add Jane Smith to your Palm Pilot during a meeting.

    At the end of the day, you'd like to get the same set of information in both places.

    So you export your Palm Pilot data and import it into Yahoo Address Book. You get Jane Smith in your Yahoo Address Book but you also get duplicate entries for every other contact.

    To avoid this duplication problem, you could first delete all of your Yahoo Address Book data before importing the Palm Pilot data. But then, since it only existed in your Yahoo Address Book, you would have lost John Doe's entry.

    Synchronization solves these problems by taking changes to your data, regardless of where they were made, and distributing them to all your contact managers.

    If you change the same record in multiple places, synchronization allows you to automatically reconcile the differences and take the most recent change, or to manually reconcile the differences.
