KompoZer Tutorial Videos

I’ve never heard of Kompozer, but it appears to be a very powerful free open source website creation tool. It evens has the ability to make pages using CSS.  While free is always welcome, who wants to go through the learning curve (especially for software so powerful). Enter Kompozer tutorials. These videos are from Jay Jennings (regular listeners and readers know I’m a big Jay Jennings Fan), and once again Jay has put out a great product that delivers high quality without requiring you to break the piggy bank. The whole set of videos is 20 bucks. Sure beats reading an outdated book.  Check it out at kompozervideos.com

Contest Machine

ContestMachine is geared to making contests and giveaways easy.  The tool is like survey monkey in that we let you collect responses.  But that’s just the beginning.  When your giveaway ends, contest creator allows you to pick as many winners for you as prizes, at the push of a button.  It automatically sends the winners emails asking to verify their entries and supply their mailing addresses, and then lets you know if a winner hasn’t responded so you can pick another.  Contest creator gives you a widget to embed in your website, and a hosted page you can link to.  It manages the tedium or organizing a contest so you can run them without issue.  When I contacted the company they stated, “Many of our users have received many more entries and experienced much less headache by using our system. We also do things like allow only one entry per user — optimizations that aren’t possible with comment systems on blogs (what most of our customers used before switching to us).”

It sounds cool and there is a free version.  This version does not allow you to export the entries or have access to emails (you can also only have two contests per month). The next level is 9 bucks a month that allows 10 contests a month (and the ability to use it to grow your email list).  You can also sign up for a yearly payment option which gives you 50 contests per month with unlimited submissions.

I’m playing with the software so here is my contest. Check it out at contestmachine.com

DOMAIN NAME TOOLS
When it comes to a name you need to take some time to think about it. These tools help show you what names are available. You may find a name that is better than the original one you thought up. I’ve used nameboy.com and I had some friends tell me about domainsbot.com and bustaname.com
