Tech Tips

Making Your Blog Successful

I have learned the most about blogging from Kathy Hendershot-Hurd (Click here to view more details) 

She has a rare in-depth knowledge of blogging and what it can do for your business.

For Kathy, it' not just a hobby. She walks the walk. And she has helped hundreds of people get started with blogging and learn to blog effectively to increase traffic to their sites and attract clients. 

Power blogging is not for whiners! You can't just blog about what you had for breakfast and expect to get TRAFFIC in your niche! And all website need more traffic. If you learn to blog effectively, then you'll have all the traffic (and business) you want. When Kathy came out with a blogging book, I had one of the first looks at it. When I started using it, I started seeing results on a new blog I had started on hypnosis and diet almost immediately. And the great thing about this book, is that you can move as fast or slow as you want.

Don't waste your time blogging until you have this book!

Have You *Googled* Yourself?

The other day, while I was on the phone with Lynne Berrett, she *googled* her name . . . that is, she typed her name into the Google search box.

What a surprise when her Easy Coaching Website came up #1. And because she and some of the other folks in my Website Workgroup were linking to each other on their blogs, Shaun Kieran's site came up too.

Why is that surprising?

Lynne has 2 other blogs that have been up longer, but it was her Easy Coaching Website that came up first. Awesome!

So it's fun and easy to do -- Google your name and/or the name of your website and see if you are showing up in the search engines.

If you like what you see, great!

If not, see what you can do to get better results.

Your goal is to be on the first page -- that's how the game is played.

Here's my class schedule for the fall:

No Excuses Blogging (3 spaces left -- Starts 8/23)

Profit From Your Ebook (Sold Out)

Paypal + Blogging Updates

Thanks to Rick Wilkes of ThrivingNow for letting me know that Paypal does now offer a virtual terminal for $20 per month.

Another coach wrote to say that she had used it, but her clients didn't care for it. They didn't trust Paypal. So she went with ProCartSolutions, which is the solution that I find most cost effective as well.

Want to get started blogging?

I've made 2 brief videos to show you how easy it is.
