Jan,
I’ve been with Hostgator for years with nothing but great results, so can’t help from experience. But I have heard really good things about BlueHost so Leslie’s recommendation might be a good one. Good luck in your future hosing and sorry about any bad experience you had with Hostgator. I have actually heard nothing but good and had…[Read more]

Hi Jan,

I found Blue host to be excellent. Especially in the customer service department. I only stopped using them because I never launched the website I had planned. Which is my own fault, and nothing to do with them.

They have access to trainings and, as I said, their support was always superb in my experience. Support can be live on screen,…[Read more]

Richad,

MLM Is simple too and this appears to be very close to that business model. Except the cost of your offer is a lot higher.

Too rich for my blood. And, don’t forget, there are consulting firms out there (UK and US) that will look after any clients you personally recruit and who need online business help. And they wont charge you they will…[Read more]

Bruce- Like Sean said…you have some great insights. But I want to add another point. Marketers by nature tend to do what they do to benefit themselves instead of who they are supposed to be ‘serving’ and as you’ve noted the changes in algorithms is attempting to change that (and is actually doing a fair job at it). But you’re also right that…[Read more]

Sean,

I hope that just because you have launched your traffic mastermind on how to cope with today’s declining returns from social media, that you keep the rest of us in mind, especially those of us who couldn’t take up your generous discount offers because it was still unaffordable.

Thanks Bruce,

I am beginning to find out just how much preparation is needed. I know from the guy who co-ordinates the Ted talks that some Ted talkers prepare for up to 6 months before doing a talk, and most for at least 3 months. The end result is a smooth, engaging and, usually, excellent presentation. My first effort will be a lot shorter than…[Read more]

Collectively, those stories would make a great book, Julia.

Think about the themes they each illustrate, and then make an outline.

If you want some help, then let me know. 🙂

I heard a great podcast today. I’m going to post the link in the Post Anything part of the site, but I’ve also included it here so that you have it.

Jonathan Cronstedt talks about what great course material looks like, and how it helps customers.

Some things, like reference books, car battery chargers – anything that is there in case of a crisis or emergency – you probably ought to hold onto.

Other things that you haven’t used for some time need to be evaluated.

You need to be practical about it; not just ruthless. If you think that you’re likely to use it in the coming year, then it…[Read more]

Not sure what your question is, Julia.

If you want to create a clickable signature for this forum, then go to Members, find your name, and then edit your profile.

Another way to help you with this is to use a page builder.

There will be a widget for images, and you’ll be able to define the size of the box that the pictures go in so that they’ll be uniform.

Not all page builders are created equal, however. We use SiteOrigin at work. I don’t like it. The tutorials are pretty much a waste of time, too. The…[Read more]

Hi Robert,

There are two things that are missing from your offer.

The first one is why you’re doing it. The best way to understand this in the short term is to look up Simon Sinek on YouTube.

If you can grasp what he says, then after some thought you’ll be able to figure this out. But it won’t be obvious.

I’m writing an ebook about this topic…[Read more]

Hi Les,

I’ve given a lot of public presentations.

The most important thing is preparation.

When you think you have it all together, then stand at a table with your notes in front of you, and present to the wall or the empty room out loud, just as if you’re doing it, all the way through.

Make whatever changes you need to to your notes.

An hour…[Read more]
