A webinar is an online seminar conducted over the Internet. In the past, I have run online events. Some of them lasting only one hour where people can register at a special link, show up live, I can train and teach them right in front of their eyes, and we could interact with each other right there on the call. This is called a webinar.

A webinar is the best way to present any kind of information. Why? Because the alternatives are to either write your information down or record them into videos ahead of time. When you're on a live call, it doesn't matter what niche, what subject, what topic you are presenting about, when you run a live webinar, you are the most excited about it at that point.

The audience can give you feedback so that you can adjust, you can have co-presenters, and the best part is that it's all compressed into a one-hour pitch or training session.

A webinar is slightly different than a live stream because people can not only hear and see what you're doing, they can respond in the form of a question as well. You can have your audience vote in polls, you can look at which members of your audience are paying attention and which aren't, and know — at this point — I need to get to the more exciting stuff.

You have this attendance interaction. When you run webinars regularly, you will now have what's called a "pulse" on your marketplace. It means you'll know what kind of problems, fears, and frustrations your prospects have, what price they prefer to pay for different products, what their budget is, what their age is, simply because you have been interacting with them on a regular basis from webinar.

On a webinar, you can get pumped up, get really excited, and you can even run a webinar with multiple people. When people present on your webinar, they are unmuted. When people attend your webinar, they are muted so you could potentially have a webinar with 500 people who can't speak but they can listen. Maybe even five panelists, including you, who can chime in or be the presenter at any given moment. This means that you can literally have a complete training session that anyone can view at the comfort of their own home or in their workplace and it's all done over the Internet on their computers.

This is something where you want to keep everyone's attention and compress as much as possible into a one-hour session. Record it. Now, you can play it back over and over again. Put it on a physical DVD. Place it in a membership site. Now, you have presented your very own webinar.

One thing that confuses many people when they're looking to run their very first of several webinars is what service to use because there are so many services — many of them are not that great.

The question is which service should you use? My answer to that is a service called GoToWebinar. The reason for this is because they run several webinars for the world's top businesses and training courses. Their webinar service pretty much always works.

Now, there are many alternatives such as MeetingBurner, MeetCheap, InstantTeleseminar. Most of these other webinar alternatives cost less, are newer, and have a few extra bonus features. But the problem is that you are probably not going to use most of the extra features available to you with some of these GoToWebinar alteranatives.

Some of these alternatives do things like create prettier webinar registration pages for you, allow you to hold more attendees, do more fancy things. But when it comes to a live webinar, what tools do you actually need? The tools you need are to show your screen, speak out a voice, and maybe present a clickable link. You can do this in GoToWebinar.

With GoToWebinar, most of your attendees have probably attended one of their webinars before which means they are familiar with many of the components of the interfact such as how to use the question box, how to register, and how to attend.

If I were you, I would run a webinar using GoToWebinar for a very good reason as well that they allow you to run an unlimited number of webinars. That's means if you want to run a webinar every single day, all day long, you can.

If you want only run one webinar per month to justify the expense, you can. But the best thing about GoToWebinar is that even though it may be a slightly higher cost than some of the smaller webinar services, it has been proven to always work. When you start that webinar, it will run, your screen will show, your audio will show. On many other of the webinar alternatives, sadly, things go wrong.

Don't take a chance. Use GoToWebinar so that your webinar runs smoothly.

Believe it or not, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to keep your blog safe from most hackers. It just involves you taking a few simple steps and a few safeguards to make sure that you don't have problems in the future.

Here are a few things you can do right now. Make sure all your WordPress usernames and passwords are strong passwords, keep your email secure, lock anyone else's IP address in your backend C-Panel and install the Akismet anti-spam plugin.

You would be amazed and surprised at how many people simple passwords such as their name, pet's name or names like test, or test1234 as the password to their WordPress blog. And in fact, there are robots or spiders that comb the internet trying to find these websites that have named their passwords in these simple names. That means when you set up your WordPress account, don't call it Admin, call it something that is non-standard such as your name. And when you have a password, name your password something with at least one number, one uppercase letter or even one punctuation character to ensure that no one can guess it.

The next thing you should do is make sure that no one has access to your email account. It does you no good to have a strong WordPress password but a weak email password, because someone can always gain access to WordPress by using the lost password tool. This means if someone has access to your email account, they can use the lost password and reset your WordPress password and now gain access to your website.

This means that you should secure your email, change your password regularly and be very careful who's computer and whose wireless network you use to check that email.

Now here's a great thing that any paranoid webmaster can do, using your C-Panel backend, you can in fact block access to what's called the WP-Admin Folder in your WordPress site. Basically you can go to a site such as what is my IP.com and it will show you a series of numbers. Now this number corresponds to you on the internet. And you can in fact block everyone on the internet from accessing your WP-Admin Folder, your administrator dashboard, and then only allow this specific IP address that is yours to access it.

This means that even if someone happens to have your WordPress password, even if you have a weak password, you are the only person who can login to that backend.

And finally, one thing that every blog owner should do that enables comments on their blog, is to use what is called the Akismet anti-spam plugin. What this does is checks any new comments coming to your blog for spam. And if you don't have a plugin like this, your blog will at some point be flooded with thousands and thousands of spam comments flooding your site with all kinds of nasty links and garbage. Install this Akismet anti-spam plugin or turn off comments entirely and that will help your blog from being spammed to death.

Those are some very simple tips to help secure your WordPress blog. Use strong passwords, secure your email, block the WP-Admin IP addresses except for yours in C-Panel, and use the Akismet anti-spam plugin.

You should definitely backup, clone and protect your WordPress blog right now by going to... Backup Creator.
