North America And Europe Travel deals

Often rated as probably the best place in N. America to take your children on a skiing holiday. Smugglers’ has an array of activities and entertainment options for the kids with some very friendly beginner slopes. The instructors at Smugglers’ have also been specially trained to deal with young learners, so this really is a fantastic place. However, what makes this such a popular choice is that in accommodating for little one, Mums and Dads have not been forgotten and there are also lots of things for Mum and Dad to do when little one is safely tucked-up in bed. All-in-all, a great resort town.

* Whistler, British Columbia, Canada
Already known as one of the best ski resorts in the world, Whistler also qualifies as one of the best places in N. America to take your children on a skiing holiday. Here, Whistler is one of the few high-end ski resorts in N. America that not only freely allows snowboarding, but actually encourages it! Specially trained ski instructors also means that you can leave your children with the instructor for a while whilst you go off and ski some of Whistler’s more advance slopes. And, if your child decides that skiing is not really for them, this wonderful resort town has plenty of alternative activities that will keep them entertained for hours at a time.

* The Canyons, Utah, USA
Centred around Park City, the Canyons in Utah are considered one of, if not the, most family-friendly ski resorts in N. America. Not far from the Canyons is Salt Lake City, home of the 2002 Winter Olympics. Certainly a top consideration for young families looking for a scenic, learner-friendly, ski resort.

European Skiing Resorts

* Les Arcs, France
Les Arcs holds itself out as being the first purpose built ski resort in the world catering to children! The resort is designed on a French-Canadian style village with a cable car linking it to the resort of La Plagne. The resort is huge, and has ample ski runs to satisfy both the more professional skier and the complete novice. The ski resort area at 1800 has a specially built children’s zone with magic carpet lifts and sledging tracks. Really, if Europe is the ski destination of choice this year for you and your family, give serious consideration to this resort – it’s superb!

* Ski Schools, Soldeu, Andorra, Spain
The ski resort in Andorra is set up specifically to help young children learn how to ski and is widely considered one of the best schools to learn to ski at. Many of the recent graduates of this school have gone on to compete on the European ski circuit. However, the school also offers classes to adults; and is so diverse and in tune with the public’s feelings towards skiing, now has a snowboarding school! Skiing lessons here are given to children wanting to learn from as early as 12 months old – showing that you have to prepare children early in the modern world of skiing championships. It should be noted, however, that this school is set up specifically for the serious learner, so if you want to partake in extra activities, you’ll need to make arrangements to go off camp. Aside from that, fun is the order of the day at the school!

Shaun White Olympics 2010 Video – Shaun White, Snowboarder

Shaun White has been one of the most talented snowboarders lately. He holds many of the highest accolades within snowboarding and skateboarding. He started to his Olympics career in 2006 and won a gold medal in men’s halfpipe  in Turin, Olympic Winter Games. By this time, he won 13 career Winter X Games medals, 6 of which are superpipe. In February 2009, he won a gold medal in the World Cup event at Cypress Mountain and won the Winter Dew tour in 2008-09. He also competes as a skateboarder and he has won three Summer X Games medals.

In one word, Shaun White possesses awesome skills and instantly recognizable looks. This talented snowboarder won a gold medal in Vancouver 2010 Olympics too. You can see the details and a video about this below:

>>Shaun White Olympics 2010 Video

Before going on talking about his success in 2010, let me talk briefly about who Shaun White is. Shaun Roger White was born in San Diego, CA in 1986. Unfortunately, he had two big surgeries before he was one year old about a heart defect. However, this did not prevent him from charging into sports like surfing, soccer and snowboarding at a very young age.

Growing in a family of five, his family spent the weekends on trips to local mountains most of the time. And that is when he started skiing, at the age of four. Soon, his parent noticed his ability on snowboarding and supported him as much as possible. He entered his first amateur snowboard contest when he was only seven and turned into a pro with the support of his sponsor at the age of 13. He won 5 national titles as an amateur and in 2001, captured his first major win.

2010 Olympics is the second consecutive win of Shaun for the US. He unleashed a series of 5 spectacular tricks, capped off his double flipping, three-and-a-half spin to win. Even before his last run, his championship was obvious. He got a winning score of 48.4 and his teammate Scott Lago, took the bronze medal.

What a great accomplishment for a person having serious surgeries at the time he was a baby.

Create Wealth From Free Accounts Like Myspace!

The True Definition Of “Networking” And Making Money By Networking Within A Targeted Demographic By “David Kitwell” Of Myturbotraffic.com

May 6 2008

“Networking”

So you have a myspace account and you have your closest friends and family added as friends

representing your network right? Well thats your “Direct Network” and they are the folks directly

related to your network. The folks indirectly related to your network of friends would be the

people listed as friends on your friends and families friends lists. This is otherwise known

as your “Extended Network”. You can use myspace to keep in touch with friends and family and

share photos from an awesome online photo gallery or you can create a slideshow and showcase your

favorite photos right there on your profile.

“Up And Running On Myspace”

Now after you’ve gotten the hang of networking, take the time to find a “Niche Topic” that you can build your page around and then create a wave of new fans by networking by demographics. Build your friends list carefully and never spam your friends list! You need them to want to be your friend and not to want to report you as spam or to delete you. That would delete the whole purpose of creating your new profile built for corporate branding!

“Building Your Niche Topic Myspace Page”

Your new friends will be now classified as “Friends That Will Make You Money”….And those are the best kinds of friends! Okay as almost everyone knows “Tivo” and “DVR” have really hurt television advertising and big corporations didn’t like the new technology. Frankly, neither did the television networks who had to take huge hits in ad sales spots on television which use to be premium priced. So what did the corporations do? They moved a lot of their big ad campaigns to the internet. They moved them to websites with plenty of traffic and use tactics to advertise their products to certain people. Here is how you can take advantage of this hot new money making strategy but first make it fun so it doesnt seem like work! Pick a topic or a subject like a sport or hobby and gather some intel on it (pictures, music, and short film to ad to your page). Then create a fast loading but very appealing myspace profile to showcase your new bad self and your new niche topic. Once you have it complete…And I mean complete (completely filled out and add a cool fast loading layout that doesn’t have a lot of video or flash on it) then you can now start building your friend list……

“Building Your New Friend Base”

Now that your up and running and adding new friends, only add friends from the age group that usually always shows interest in this hobby or topic that your page boasts about. This is otherwise known as a targeted demographics which is how corporations do business. Take a look at our prospective new advertising myspace page www.myspace.com/233705330 and see an example of what we mean. This myspace profile is still budding as we target a wide demographic from 18 to 40 on a wide marketing spectrum (a wide spectrum is worth substantially less in advertising possibilities). Thats why it is vital to pick an age group and only add people within that age group that are most likely to be interested in the topic of your new page. You can search on myspace by demographics and by keyword. Use that feature to sift through more than 231,689,576 profiles currently on myspace to add new friends to. You will need a BIG friend base to create an income so use this as a moonlight project to get your friends list numbers up and keep it clean! No offensive material and no nudity. Stand out in a crowd and be professional. Do not spam or post those annoying bulletins selling ipods or handbags because people will delete you from their friends list and/or report you as spam which could get you deleted. Remember you aren’t selling anything! You are simply just creating a friend base to eventually advertise to through a large corporation. Don’t be afraid to blog about your topic or post in forums about your topic and always point your targeted traffic from blogs and forums or groups on or off of myspace to your myspace profile. Add me as a friend and let me know youve read this post so I can watch your page grow. www.myspace.com/233705330 .

“Corporate Branding”

This is the section you are mostly concerned with. And you should be! But this is the segment of myspace success that requires the steps listed above to be done correctly. When you achieve a large base of friends on your myspace account that represents your direct level or “Direct Network” of friends above 100,000 people you are on the brink of achieving ad spot success as we call it. In other words if you have targeted a demographic throughout your friend base building project then you have a myspace page that is worthy of “Corporate Branding”. “Corporate Branding” can mean any number of things. From “Myspace Bulletin Posts” to “Top Profile Banners” to “widgets” to “Music” and “Video Players” or to a complete new page layout! Lets say your friend base was built around snowboarding. You built a friend base that makes up the demographics of people who most likely could be interested in snowboarding. It doesnt matter if they snowboard! It only matters that they somewhat like it. Why? Simple. Lets say I had 1,000,000 friends on my myspace account that was built to target the age group and gender most likely associated with “Snowboarding” and had the opportunity to sell “Corporate Branding” on my page. I could sell adspace to a snow board builder! Or I could sell adspace to a company that rents out ski lodges or I could sell adspace to a company that makes and or sells snow board gear or apparel. Or all of them at once. And the spectrum is wide because I could sell adspace to say “EA Sports” if they were promoting a new “Snowboarding” video game for “Playstation 3″!

Now…………….Heres where it gets fun! The same age group that is most likely interested in “Snowboarding” also are young owners of automobiles. Which means I could sell adspace to an auto manufacturer. I could also sell adspace for say “Sprint” to promote a new phone like the “Palm Centro” or something like that. The reason why is because I have chosen an age group based soley on “Snowboarding” and even though my page is all about “Snowboarding” I have top notch ad space that could make me a chunk of change based soley on the fact that this same age group has to eat, drink, buy cell phones and ring tones, fly on airplanes and go to college, chew gum and buy car insurance among other things like dressing like a rockstar and buying high dollar colognes to wear while wearing designer sunglasses while unloading their “Snowboards” at the ski resort you you thought you’d only be selling adspace to in the first place! If you are dumbfounded and dont know what I am rambling about then you certainly need to research further. The bottom line is you can build a big time bottom line by building your new friend base while remaining focused on the possibilities that may take a year or two to build. This won’t happen over night but it can happen! And it doesnt just pertain to “Myspace”. You could use this same exact strategy on any of the big traffic platforms known today like “Youtube” or “Friendster”..Good luck with your new venture! David Kitwell from Myturbotraffic.com
