I like the fasting idea. The problem is, fasting from marketing could in itself be a marketing idea! Kind of like how Seth Godin doesn't allow comments on his blog, so instead, people talk about him, his books, his blog, etc. all outside his website. Or the way the rock band Pearl Jam is against Ticket Master and MTV, however, they're still a success. I agree 100% with you on the free trials and all. That's why our <a href="http://www.eventurebiz.com/webhosting" rel="nofollow">web hosting</a> policy here at eVentureBiz allows you to have a 30 day money back guarantee, a <a href="http://eventurebiz.com/webhosting/control_panel_demo/index.htm" rel="nofollow">free demo of a web hosting account</a>, and I made sure the control panel used was not as atrocious as the one I had when I had a Yahoo Hosting account.

I'm all for doing things like using colors people like, free trial offers so that people get to see how great your product is before deciding to buy it, making navigation easy, offering a complimentary product (like amazon tells you what books others buy along with the book you just purchased), and so on. But trying to get you to subscribe to a magazine by playing on the secret fear most people have that if they don't buy something their chances of winning $1,000,000.00 will decrease? Come on! I'm seriously thinking of going on advertisement fast. <em>Marelisa's last blog post..<a href='http://abundance-blog.marelisa-online.com/?p=147' rel="nofollow">The Elasticity of Time (Part 2)</a></em> I’m just so tired of deceptive advertising and marketing “tricks”.

But I tell myself if they were caught doing that they would be in big trouble. Who really knows though. LOL - I know I always do!

We do become very blind to ads. Blogs are often that way too. With Publishers Clearing House they always say "you don't have to order to be illegible to win", but there's almost a hidden message in that. I think a lot of people think their entry might be thrown out if they don't order. <em>Barbara Swafford's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/bloggingwithoutablog/DWWZ/~3/315186560/' rel="nofollow">The Biggest Mistake I Made In Blogging</a></em> Hi John,
