Underscores vs. dashes and changed blog URLs

Monday, April 20th, 2009

Also, before I forget…

I have changed all filenames on the site from using underscores (“_”) to using dashes (“-”) instead. For instance, “lead_generation.html” becomes “lead-generation.html.”

Apart from that I have also changed the blog URLs to be a little bit more search-engine friendly. All of this, of course, messed a bit with my search engine listings… But I figured I would rather do it now, than do it later when I have way too much content… Google should catch up soon. My only concern are the blog entries on WebLogs…

I apologise if you came here looking for a link and got a 404 error page… just change the underscore in the URL to a dash and it should be fine. Otherwise, click on “Home” above and feel free to explore the site.

Attraction Marketing

Monday, April 20th, 2009

So… Yet another page has been added. I’ve been sick the last week, so unfortunately I have had to shift some dead-lines…

However, click here to find out more about “Attraction Marketing” – something I believe is the answer to the prayers of every reluctant and slightly introverted Network Marketer :)

This page deals mostly with the concept itself and I will add more specific information as part of the “Lead Generation” section later…

Until next time…

… Vs. Network Marketing

Tuesday, April 7th, 2009

I have added three pages…

I have already covered most of the detail related to those topics in the main page. All three pages are not part of my BrainstormIt! researched
list of keywords, but I felt I needed to include them for completeness. I struggled with the ideas contained in them and wanted to give a bit if clarity to those who are walking on the same path that I was…

Let me know if you feel that they are useful… If not, then email me some specific questions that you would like to get answered and I will updated them accordingly.

To the next update!

Lead Generation

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

I have updated the site with the main portal page into the Lead Generation section.

I believe lead generation is one of the most important skills to have – if you can create clients on demand, why would you need to work for anyone else, ever again? I hope to expand
this section later on with information on Facebook and Instant Messaging as well. I really have a lot of material for it… However, before I submit the site to any directories, I would like to
clean up all the broken links to content pages so far; and I would like to add at least two pages to each of the other main sections on the site – just to give the reviewers a balanced idea
of what to expect on the site.

I still have quite a lot of content to add… but I’m getting there :)

Leverage and Affiliate Network Marketing

Thursday, March 26th, 2009

I’ve uploaded two new pages…

The first covers the concept of leverage. A lot of people are aware of “financial leverage,” but few people are aware of how it applies to effort. To find out how to win your time back, click here.

The second is a short explanation of the differences between Affiliate Marketing and Network Marketing. I support both, but there was a point in the past where exclusively doing Affiliate Marketing was really tempting… this page explains why I stuck to Network Marketing.

Until later…

Residual Income

Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

New on the path to Financial Freedom and/or Network Marketing? If you are, I have added another page that explains the differences between “residual income” (also known as “passive income”) and a “linear income.”

I realise that it is a very basic and familliar concept to those of us who have been around for a while; however I do find that a lot of people have never been exposed to it. My first goal is to get the “Network Marketing” section done, but I will be referencing it from some of the other sections as well…

Should you be involved in Network Marketing?

Friday, March 20th, 2009

I have just added a new page that focusses on the pros and cons of Network Marketing. I believe Network Marketing is only part of a bigger strategy towards financial freedom and this page explains why…

What is Network Marketing?

Wednesday, March 18th, 2009

I added the page What is Network Marketing?” to the site.

I have included a couple of diagrams and hopefully a simple explanation of the topic… I have also included links to the on-line versions of “Brilliant Compensation” and “What The Wealthy Buy On Payday.” Those cost me quite a bit (in South African Rands), every month… so I hope you and other my visitors appreciate it :)

Let me know what you think and leave your comments down below… My aim with this page is to give those who are new to Network Marketing and those who have never heard of it before, an objective view on what it is about. I would like to hear your opinion on whether you feel it is clear, or not… I am fairly open to revising it.

I remember how long I struggled with this topic, myself… Writing the page and looking back, it seems like such a no-brainer. However, you will hear me say this often… Hard facts are sometimes hard to come by…. Especially if you do not know what you are looking for in the first place! For myself, even though I am still with the first (and probably only) company I will ever promote, I really started out with absolutely no direction – not even any method to my madness…. And there was madness, believe me ;)

For a while, I will only be updating the blog with news on site updates (hopefully this will continue up until halfway through September ’09). The reason is that I do not want too much duplicate content between the main site and the blog… However, even after the second post, I seem to have taken a natural liking to blogging (so far) and my intent is definitely to keep it up after that.

I hope you enjoy the page and the videos… And remember to leave me your comments. Good luck with your own ventures and until the next update!

Hello…

Sunday, March 15th, 2009

So, the blog is finally up… Redesigning the default WordPress template to fit the rest of my site was not a piece of cake. Hopefully I haven’t missed anything…

In any case, I will be updating this blog as I come across useful ideas related to the site content as well as when I make updates to the site content itself.

Welcome, and enjoy :)
