The Alexa rankings of our Network Marketing group are most impressive. For example, our first five companies outrank GNC, and 29 of ours outrank Cover Girl. Our Top 50 Network Marketing Companies are in the top 10% of Alexa’s first million sites.

All but six of our Top 50 are also ranked 100,000 or better (remember lower numbers are better – it’s closer to #1.)

Alexa says that “Generally, Traffic Rankings of 100,000+ should be regarded as not reliable because the amount of data we receive is not statistically significant.

Conversely, the more traffic a site receives (the closer it gets to the number 1 position), the more reliable its Traffic Ranking becomes.” (emphasis added) Source: Alexa.com So we’re in the good group! ALL but six are under 100k rank.

You can check your company ranking by going to alexa.com, and entering your company’s website address. If your company doesn’t appear in this list and you think it should, let us know by posting a friendly Comment, below.

Remember, in addition to the Alexa ranking, a company must also be 5 years old or more to be included here.

NOTE: This list does not include affiliate programs. No enroller sites, landing pages or distributor websites. No shopping discount programs if they are not really network marketing. We correct and update errors as we find them.

No anonymous comments or comments advertising personal websites will be posted.

Author: admin / Category: Architects


Building Information Model or BIM is the process of developing building model which is used in presenting and visualizing building components, construction sequences, resource allocation and other disciplines of construction process in a virtual environment. Building Information Model is an object-oriented building progress tool that utilizes 4D modeling concepts along with Autodesk Revit, Tekla structure, ArchiCAD softwares to design and build a building, as well as communicate its essentials. BIM process generates 3D Model encompassing geometric and geographic information of the building and properties of its components.

If you ask building owners and operators they will tell you numerous advantages of BIM and significant benefits of using building information modeling (BIM) during building construction life cycle. Some of very prominent benefits of BIM Modeling are:

Advantages of BIM to Building Contractors:

# BIM provides a good estimation during bidding and procurement

# BIM improves coordination in construction sequencing

# Effective marketing presentation of construction approaches

# BIM helps in identifying possible conflicts that may arise during building construction

# Biggest advantage of using BIM is lesser amount of errors and hence rectifications – saving costs and resources

# BIM allows for more “what if” analysis, such as construction sequencing options, shuffling of human resources, fine-tuning cost factors, etc.

# BIM helps clients and end-users in understanding and visualizing the end product

# BIM helps owner in taking informed decisions about the proposed project.

Benefits of BIM to the Building Designer:

# BIM allows designer to use sophisticated web-based tools such as Trelligence Affinity, which connects the project’s program to other BIM tools such as Tekla, Revit and ArchiCAD.

Advantages of BIM to Cost Engineer:

# BIM model allows for better cost estimation of human resources, raw materials and structural components.

Construction and Building projects are dynamic in nature and the status of construction changes frequently as the time progresses. Most civil engineers plan their project based on primary filed drawings which are prune to frequent changes during the execution period.

Get A Great Louisiana Home Owner Insurance Quote

Author: admin / Category: Home Insurance


Before you set out for your Louisiana home owner insurance quote, prepare yourself for the kinds of questions insurance companies that specialize in home owner insurance policies, especially Louisiana home owner insurance policies, will ask you.

First, you’ll most likely be asked your address. The insurance company may require your full address at first, or it may only require your zip code; however, where in Louisiana you live is important when deciding your Louisiana home owner insurance code.

You’ll also be asked if you want insurance for your home, your condo, a townhouse, a place you rent yourself, or a place you rent to others. This helps the insurance company determine what risks are on the table, as well as coverage you’ll need and want. For example, if you own a home, you may want Louisiana home owner insurance to protect your home and your contents; whereas, if you rent an apartment, you may only want insurance to cover the contents.

Next, the insurance company will ask for information about the home itself, including its age, levels of floors, adjacent buildings such as garages, basement type, roof condition, as well as overall condition of electrical and plumbing systems. Further information will be requested upon the answers to these questions to help the insurance company determine the amount of coverage you’ll need based on the strength and security of your home. Questions that follow may include questions about add-ons and perks such as deadbolts, fire extinguishers, nearby fire hydrants, saunas, hot tubs, and even pets.

The answers to some of these questions are unavoidable; if your home is made of brick, it’s made of brick. If you have a certain number of floors, you have a certain number of floors. You get the idea. However, you can get a cheaper Louisiana home owner insurance quote by making changes such as security upgrades, electrical and plumbing upgrades, and even upgrading your roof.
