Number of malicious websites spotted in 2012 quintuples

There was a 500 per cent rise in the number of malicious websites detected in 2012.

According to the Websense Threatseeker Network, the rise by 501 per cent in the EMEA region, showed that attackers are 'not letting up' in their pursuit of targets. Speaking to SC Magazine, Carl Leonard, senior security research manager, EMEA at Websense, said that websites remain easy to compromise and in some instances, they have become 'watering hole' style attack traps, waiting for victims to visit.

He said: “We see that some malicious files, once downloaded by a user, download another executable file within a minute. How can you protect against that It is almost impossible. We are also now seeing almost ten per cent of malware infecting the system registry, while almost 95 per cent of the malware doesn't actually make any changes, it is transparent to the user.”

Asked why this increase in vulnerable websites was so significant and how it was possible, Leonard said that the worrying issue is that often the fixes are not complicated and especially with so many businesses on the internet with a profile, malware authors want to get that presence.

“Businesses are not evolving as quickly as attackers and this is evident of how many companies do not have security as the front of their mind. It is often an afterthought too late but it often just takes a minute,” he said.



6 Statistics That Influence Your Mix of Media, Marketing and Mingling

Given that we live, work and play in two worlds, in-person and online, finding your best mix of media, marketing and mingling can influence meeting the right people, joining the best communities, getting involved with them and communicating to them.

We know the benefits and value of networking with people in person, but some compelling trends and statistics emerged in 2012 that were shared in an infographic titled, “100 Social Networking Statistics and Facts for 2012” created by Creotivo:

networking

[Click Image for Full Version]

Below are 6 statistics that appear to influence your mix of media, marketing and mingling:

  • 40% socialize more online than they do face to face.
  • 1 out of every 7 minutes spent online is spent on Facebook.
  • 83% of brands use Facebook as #1 tool for business.
  • 53% of brands use Twitter as #2 tool for business.
  • 61% of brands use LinkedIn as their primary professional networking site.
  • 53% of employers have formal social media policies.

My recent relocation to the Tampa Bay area had many moving parts. Since I was familiar with the area and knew people in business, I decided to network people instead of events, feeling that they would naturally lead me to others. And this approach is working.

I not only picked up the phone, but used LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter prior to moving to connect with people and ask if they could make some introductions for me.  Once I was moved, I joined a chamber, a business networking group, an arts facility and the local cycling club. I put these communities in place so I could  meet a diverse mix of local people who share many of my interests.

A question that comes up often is, “What do you do” When it does, I lead with my career story, which allows me to be more personal with people. The “story” of your story is a great connector.

Social Media Makes Connecting Easier and is Possible Every Day 

Locally as well as far and wide, it allows us to find and build communities of like minded and spirited people fairly quickly. Less is actually more. A smaller group of more targeted connections is far more valuable than a huge group of followers who are really just numbers on a list.

The best way of determining what media’s are right for you is to observe what others are doing who are engaging you. Ask, survey and tap your community to find out what is working best for them. LinkedIn, Facebook  and Twitter are my big three. But use what works for you, your business, your customers and your industry.

Use Content Marketing by Making Your Content About Helping Others

We all have something to offer and we should be sharing it often and freely. This is the best way to educate people about who we are, what we do and how we can solve problems. People drive their businesses today so getting out front via content marketing is not a bad thing or an ego thing as long the intent is to serve others and not always be selling.

Celebrate results, the impact of what you do, what you have learned  and how it has and can benefit others.  When you market the results up front not the product or service, it demonstrates how you solve problems. That, ultimately, is your best sales story. 

Mingle Through Purposeful Networking, Groups and a Commitment to Get Involved 

This can yield big dividends.  Networking has always had a prominence in growing personal and professional connections and reputation. Interacting, connecting and gathering socially in person is the most natural thing we do. Networking in person always takes priority, but your online communication platforms support, solidify and grow your relationships in between those times. In person and online networking is now interdependent and mutually beneficial.

Finding that perfect mix of media, marketing and mingling is how we make ourselves stand out, claim our space and build loyal communities and customers.  These 7 common sense tips for networking are great reminders of just how easy this can be.

Books You Won’t Want to Miss in the 2013 Small Business Book Awards

For those of you who haven’t noticed â€" the 2013 Small Business Book Awards are underway! Nominations for the best business books of 2012 are pouring in daily.  If you haven’t nominated your favorite book, you have through Sunday March 3, 2013  to get your nominations in.

Nominating a book is really easy.  Head over to the nomination page. Tell us about the book you are nominating and what’s in the book that a small business owner would value.  It takes just a few minutes.

To get you started, I’ve created a list of some of my favorite books of the year. When I thought about which books to pick, I thought about the books I read and reviewed as Book Editor here at Small Business Trends, that didn’t just teach me something, but changed how I look at and run my business.

So Good they Can’t Ignore You by Cal Newport

book awardsHow many times can I say “LOVED this book” â€" not enough when it comes to this one.

This book transformed how I live my life and do my work. So Good They Can’t Ignore You introduced me to the idea of “craftsmanship” in every element of my work.

Now, instead of moaning and rolling my eyes at feedback, I embrace it because I know it’s going to help me improve my product and my skills.

Pumpkin Plan by Mike Michalowicz (@ToiletPaperEntrepreneur)

book awardsI’m a big Toilet Entrepreneur fan and if you’re a small business that hasn’t discovered this community, definitely check it out. Their Pied Piper is Mike Michalowicz, who wrote the original book, Toilet Paper Entrepreneur that started this community and has now released Pumpkin Plan.

I laughed out loud through the bulk of the book because Mike is just so ridiculously funny, but there are many, many words of wisdom around how to build and run a successful business - for any sized business.

Digital Dollar by Joe Wozny

book awardsDigital Dollar felt like having someone who knows, gets and understands social media channels walk up to me, grab me by the collar and tell me what it takes to get the job done.

And believe me - it’s not fluffy and feel good. It’s practical, down-in-the-trenches-this-is-how-the-Internet-works kind of stuff.

There are many books about social media and Internet marketing, but Digital Dollar is about actually doing what it takes to get the job done.

iPhone Millionaire by Michael Rosenblum (@Rosenblumtv)

book awardsI’d say this has GOT to be my DIYMarketers book of the year. It’s got all the things we DIY’ers love. It’s short, it’s fun to read and each page is a guide to how to do video right.

You are NOT getting away from video my friends. And believe me when I tell you - this is a message for ME as much as it is to YOU. You MUST do video. I’ve been saying this for years and haven’t done it. I have my reasons - and I’m sure you have good ones too; the least of which will be how to shoot good video. You might think you’re hung up on the technology, believe me - you aren’t. Read this book, shoot better video, hire someone to edit it. Easy Peasy.

Brand Advocates by Bob Fuggetta (@robfuggetta)

book awardsThis is another book I’m completely nuts about because the message is simple, the process is free and the results are INSANE! The main principle of the book is that you have thousands of invisible salespeople who work for your company - FOR FREE! Yes, these people are out there talking enthusiastically about your business every day on your behalf and you pay them - NOTHING. They are brand advocates. They are insanely loyal to your company, your product or service and brand and they love sharing it with others. Brand Advocates will teach you how to leverage their enthusiasm to generate sales.

Now it’s your turn!  What are your favorite business books for 2012

Nomination FAQs

Now for some details about nominating.

(1) First, you ask, what’s the nomination fee  The answer is: ZERO.  That’s right â€" it costs nothing to nominate.

(2) How can Small Business Trends afford to run an awards without fees, you ask  It’s thanks to the generous support of Namecheap, an ICANN-accredited domain registrar. Presenting this year’s Awards is yet one more way that Namecheap is supporting the small business community. So if you want to thank anyone for this awesome opportunity to discover new books and share your likes, be sure to thank Namecheap.

(3) Can I nominate my own book or book app (remember, there’s a “resources” category this year, too)  YES! Anyone can nominate - we don’t care who submits the nomination.  The whole idea behind a community awards is that the ENTIRE community gets to participate.  Book lovers, authors, publishers, book app developers, fans â€" head over to the 2013 Small Business Book Awards site, and â€" NOMINATE away!




7 considerations for purchasing an online Hosting Plan

Web Hosting Plan Today, there are millions of webhosting companies out there with kinds of selling plans, facilities and costs. It's extremely difficult to decide on a hosting plan from thousands of website hosting plans available in the market, especially if you're new to website hosting.

In the method of preparing this newsletter, I GOOGLED often to look criteria for the choice of fine hosting plan with different search terms. And mainly, I got comparative charts (comparative rating) of other hosting companies. The interesting thing is that, these comparative studies on webhosting companies have considered many common features whichI even have listed down in your reference.

1.   Price

Price is the very first thing that almost all folks will seriously look into first while considering an online hosting plan. During this age of competitive marketing, there are a lot of offers, discounts and promotional plans offered by hosting company. However price, discounts and provides shouldn't be the deciding factor while choosing an online host.

In the various cases, the cost offered by the net host for the primary year is lower than the renewal cost. a better have a look at the primary time price and recurring cost (annual renewal charge) lets you plan on your long run budget.

When we focus on hosting price, we need to keep three things in our mind:

a.      Annual /monthly cost

It is the true cost you're going to pay in your hosting company either on monthly or on yearly basis per their payment plan. But lots of the hosting companies only offer yearly accounts

b.      Cost of domain (In case you are buying a brand new domain)

While hosting a site, you would like a website name. In the event you already own a website name, you could simply host your website on that domain. Or you need to buy a brand new domain.

You can either buy this with any domain registrar in the market(for instance, www.godaddy.com) or ask for a similar hosting company for brand new domain for which you'll be charged ertain quantity for domain name registration.

c.       Setup fee.

Some hosting companies charge for one time setup fee for brand spanking new account. The fee varies from as low as $10(for straightforward website) to as high as $1500 (for dedicated server hosting). However the comparative study on hosting companies found on different websites shows that the pinnacle hosting companies normally don't charge for website setup.

2.   Platform

In website hosting terms, a platform refers to an operating system at the top of which your website runs. Today, customers can make a choice from a whole lot of operating systems in keeping with their business needs. The most important players in today’s! market o! f hosting platforms are: UNIX/Linux, Microsoft Windows and FreeBSD.

3.   Programming Language support

The development and use of type of programming languages on web programming business has forced the net hosting companies to give support for every of them. A number of the popular web programming languages in use at the present time are PHP, Ruby on Rails, Perl, Python, ASP, .Net, Java and Cold Fusion. Before hosting your site, you are able to visit the internet sites of respective website hosting company to ensure the language support required by your website

4.   MySQL Databases

This refers to, what number of MySQL databases you could create in the disk space allocated for your account Today, many hosting providers allow unlimitd number of MySQL databases on all their  web hosting  plans. The one restriction could be the web space allocated to each hosting account. However, there are still some hosting providers who limit this facility to let’s say 10, 20, 100 or 200. So, it's wise to study this number before you buy any hosting plan.

5.   Control Panel

In internet hosting, a control panel is an interactive web interface provided to administer their various hosted services in one place.

Control panels provide services which simplify tasks reminiscent of uploading and managing websites, creating email accounts, installing web-based application! s like bl! ogs, shopping carts, and forums, backing up data, generating and viewing statistics about visitors and reviewing error logs to find broken links and other problems.

Today, just about all webhosting companies offers control panels  in one form or another. Cpanel, Plesk, Ipage and Vdeck are some examples of hosting control panel.

6.   Bandwidth (transfer/month)

Bandwidth is the measurement of information that's sent out of your web host’s server all the way down to the visitors computer. In case you have lots of visitors and so they download large files from you, then you definately will desire a large amount of bandwidth.

A kind of bandwidth options are provided by the internet hosting companies of their plans. The most differenc between the fundamental and dear plan of any hosting provider is the adaptation inside the amount of bandwidth per 30 days. Most hosts will define the bandwidth amount in GB (Gigabytes).

7.   Uptime
