"How to Put Your Bookmark on Top Every Time."

Do web surfers really bookmark websites anymore? A good friend
and very successful marketer online recently said to me, "Ron,
bookmarks are a complete waste of time." It was said so
matter-of-factly, that we were off onto some other topic in the
next breathe.
A little later, as I was returning to the Breakaway Marketing
World Headquarter, this very brief conversation popped back into
my head and I asked myself... "Is he right?" "Are bookmarks a
complete waste of time?" I visualized the favorites list that
I've developed in my own browser's memory bank and I thought if I
lost that list, I'd have to reconstruct it and I utilize my
favorites folders constantly.
Bookmarks aren't a complete waste of time, especially
considering that it only takes a couple minutes of your time to
set up a bookmark link that will put your bookmark at the top of
the favorites list every time.
There's a little trick that I'll share with you that you've
probably never seen before and you can download a text file with
the exact scripts to modify for your own use.
We're going to shift gears from bookmarks to autoresponders for
a second, and as you follow along you'll see the connection.
Trust me.
When I set up a new autoresponder series I always incorporate
the following copy into the first message. Here's what it might
look like...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hi New Autoresponder Subscriber,
Welcome. Thank you. Congratulations. This is just super!
If you’re receiving this message, it’s because you (or
someone pretending to be you) successfully subscribed to my
weekly eZine, GoThrive Online. If you did not intentionally
subscribe, you'll find "how to unsubscr!be" info at the end
of this message.
Before we do anything else, I want you to set up a new
mail folder in your email client where you can safely store
all incoming GoThrive Online ezine issues and messages.
Whether you use Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, Express Plus,
Calypso, or whatever software, you can typically create a new
mail folder by clicking file / new / folder.
Name this new folder “! GoThrive Online Ezine !”.
Just like that. “! GoThrive Online Ezine !”.
Save all of the messages that you receive from me in that
folder. This will save you the trouble of having to look
very far for messages when you want to go back and reference
a tool, service or article that we discuss.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why the wierd looking folder name (! GoThrive Online Ezine !)?
I learned this trick from Alex Mandossian. When you name a
folder beginning with "!" it will be listed first in alphabetical
order. In fact, the "!" beats out every other special character
in this regard.
So, by naming the folder "! GoThrive Online Ezine !", the email
client (software program), which by default sorts all folders
alphabetically, will put my new folder above everyone else's
folder. I'm now the first folder that my new subscriber sees
every time he or she opens the email client. Very cool.
This same tactic can be used with website bookmarks!
Let's go test three bookmark examples and you can download the
scripts for your own use. Go here now:

Are you back? Did you test this out? Great.
Honestly, it's hard to predict what kind of mileage you'll get
by implementing this little bookmark trick, but it surely can't
hurt to be at the top of the favorites list for everyone who does
bookmark your site.
