New WordPress Course Coming…
I am closing in on the launch date for my new WordPress course and before I complete the finishing touches I would be interested in hearing from YOU. If you currently use WordPress, or intend to use it, for your website, what would you like to know that you don’t already? What kind of support would you like that WordPress doesn’t offer directly? What features would you like to see or learn about? Please comment below, or use the Contact tab above. Thank you.
Definitive Encyclopedia of Marketable Words
From the stories I read as a child to the technical tombs I refer to regularly in my current work I have always thought of books as my friends. I’ve read hundreds of books. I couldn’t begin to tell you how many. I owned a book store once and sold thousands of books. I’ve also appraised large collections of books for insurance compainies. Today I read and research books almost daily, including ebooks. I own a Kindle and love it.
Wizard’s WordPress Workshop
A couple of days ago the newest version of WordPress, v3.3 of the self-hosted, blogging and content management system website package, was released with a dedication to the great Jazz saxophonist Sonny Stitt. Since its inception, all major releases of WordPress get the name of a famous Jazz musician.
Quality vs. Quantity
It’s an old concept, balancing quality against quantity and the argument over which is better continues. Is it better to sell billions of hamburgers or serve the best burger in town? Is it better to sell millions of automobiles yearly or just a few dozen Ferraris? If quantity was the undisputed winner then there would only be one hamburger brand and one car model available in your town.
Thanksgiving 2011
We all have so much to be thankful for and we all have something we can share with others. Reach out. Give a little. Help someone who who has less. You won’t have trouble finding someone. And to get you in the right mood watch this short video:
A Photo Studio In Your Home
Home photo studio equipment used to be very expensive but in the past few months the prices has dropped dramatically. A complete studio with backdrop (with stands), and quality lighting, is now less than $200.00. You can affordably convert any suitable space into a professional quality photo gallery suitable for still photography or video.
The WWW Curse
You’ve seen the dreaded Server not found: Your browser can’t find the server at www.somedomain.com error. You check the URL (web address) you entered into your browser and it looks right but it just won’t work. You may be a victim of the WWW Curse!
Squeeze Page Basics
As you already probably recognize, squeeze pages are produced with only one intent in mind: to acquire visitors and convert them to subscribers. All the same a little work is, and some different elements are, needed to produce a great squeeze page. A few of these components are:
1. A brief but bold and attention-getting headline.
2. Three to four bullet points which will describe a bit about the merchandise or free gift you are putting up. As a whole, a squeeze page commonly only bears one paragraph of words that may be distinguished as sales copy. In a lot of cases, a squeeze page is merely an opt-in form that bears two or three sentences of copy within the actual page.
