    RAZING OF JERUSALEM
    January 15, 1970 - Israel

    The first evidence was uncovered of the razing by fire, of Jerusalem by Roman troops led by General Titus in 70 A.D. upon orders from Caesar. Israeli archaeologist Prof. Nahumn Avigad excavated ruins in the Jewish Quarter of Old Jerusalem, a few hundred yards from the Wailing Wall. Three meters (10 feet) under the earth, he found two rooms with evidence of intense heat and ashes. One was apparently a pharmacy, with beautifully carved stone jars, stone weights, and measuring cups. The second was perhaps a woodworking shop. The coins were found which helped precisely date the event. Despite the destruction, the site was valuable because the objects were found buried there as they had been used.

    SOLAR HEATED HOUSE
    January 15, 1955 - Tucson, Arizona, U.S.A.

    The first U.S. house to be both solar-heated and radiation-cooled started its system. It was built in Tucson, Arizona by solar physicist Raymond W. Bliss, Jr. (6 Oct 1915 - 7 Nov 2004). The system was built at a cost of nearly $4,000 for labor and materials. It was made using a large slanted slab of steel and glass that converted sunlight into heat, which was directed into the house. Summer cooling used the same ducts and associated fans and controls. The first U.S. house to be completely solar heated was occupied in Dover, Mass. On 24 Dec 1948. That heating system was designed by Dr. Maria Telkes from the MIT Solar Laboratory, used black sheet metal collectors to capture solar energy, stored by the phase-change of sodium sulfate decahydrate in “heat bins.”

Email marketing and your website :

Choose Your Color :

ARTICLE INFORMATION :

Your email should contain appropriate phrases that will get people to do what you want which, in this case, is to click on a link. Be creative with the anchor text of the link to encourage people to click on it.

ARTICLE CONTENT :

Email marketing is that type of promotion that can bring you profit at very low price. It brings result but you do not have to spend much money on the strategies. Probably it is one of the cheapest marketing strategies available in the market. But one drawback of this type of business promotion is spamming. Whenever you hear this word one word automatically enters in your mind and that is spam. And for this very reason a good businessman always shy away from this type of promotion activity. But the fact is that spam and email marketing is not similar but in actuality these to are completely different and not using it as part of your marketing campaign could prove to be a mistake because it does bring results and is one of the cheapest marketing strategies available.

Now we will discuss how one can be benefited from email marketing. The first one is you have to determine your target audience. Sending mass email indiscriminately can indeed get some peoples attention but almost everyone knows that it is a spam. And therefore this type of marketing can ultimately bring you no concrete profit. So it is a big no no. The most effective people to email would be existing customers/subscribers. Referred leads are also good targets of email marketing. But always remember though that whether you email existing customers or potential clients you should always put an easy way for people to unsubscribe from the mailing list.

The second one is you have to be sure that the email gets noticed. It is always best to put the company name or website name under the mail to let the recipient know who the email is from at a glance. Put the most important info on the subject line but make sure you keep it short. Use your subject like a way that can make your subjects attractive and not boring. And not only should this work but it also gives an indication as to the content of the email.

Informative content of your email will attract your subscriber?s attention. So make sure that your customers have a valuable content before them which is provided with your email informing them important announcements regarding new things on your website, exclusive promo codes, industry news, informative articles, and even birthday greetings. So if you keep on sending them plain ads then it can also happen that your loyal subscribers will start to ignore your messages only by deleting them even unnoticed.

You have to organize the information about your website. People don?t always read the entire email so make sure you place the most important information you want conveyed at the start of the email. If you are sending an image make sure you still put at least a short text content before the image to get the attention of people whose email service automatically block images from being viewed so that they will want to manually see the image at least. This would not let your image go unnoticed.
