  • Quick Start Challenge – Starting Soon

    Quick Start Challenge – Starting Soon

    quick start challenge

    The Quick Start Challenge (QSC) is starting soon and I have decided to join.

    Working online can be a lonely place and I thought that this might help me focus on one project rather than the 500 running around in my brain and the group might help to keep me on the straight and narrow.

    It will also be good to see if using this structured process will help make me more productive. The fact that I have a group to spur me on and also to compete against will, I think be good for me.

    The idea of the quick start challenge is for everyone to follow a proven course to generate income within 30 days.

    With my years of experience and knowledge, I should be able to walk it so I think I will be motivated to ensure that a total newbie does not do better then I do.

    Working on your own with no one watching over your shoulder or not being answerable to anyone is not always a good thing especially for someone with ADD like me who can spend a lot of time on things that are not productive to profitable.

    Watch this space, I will be updating it regularly with my progress and results.

    Wish me luck with the 2015 Quick start Challenge. It started with the first webinar on the 6th July at 11.00 in the evening.

    The first task is to setup a blog and post about this challenge. I do have an advantage in that I have already got this blog setup and it has been for a number of years. However, the last blog post was before this was last December!

    The whole idea os to start to add regular, useful and informative posts.

  • How To Be Successful Online

    How To Be Successful Online

    How To Be Successful Online

    I am often asked how can I make a successful business online. The internet is an amazing place and there are so many opportunites to make money online.

    The problem is that you need to treat it like a real business. So many people who try to make money online do not take it seriously. They see an advert online on how to make a million in 30 days, they send off their payment read the course and do litle or nothing with it.

    Now there is a lot of crap out there but there are some good instructional courses but none of them will work if action is not taken and the steps followed. Action is the ke y of how to be successful online.

    So with this in mind the first thing  is to have the right attitude.Make the decision that you will set aside a certain amount of time and then DO IT..

    This is true in any buiness online or otherwise in fact to be successful at anything you have to have a postive mental attitude but is that enough?

    Actually no, if you have seen the secret it explains that everything is brought about by thought however it does not matter how much you think about something it aint gonna happen unless you take action and massive action at that.

    Whilst a postive mental attitude is essential you need to follow this up with action. If you do something every single day towards your goal whether that is training to run the marathon or setting up your online empire, you have a great chance of success.

    Hopefully the above will give you a guideline on how to be successful online.

    Testing Is The Key Testingalotlloyd

    Testingalotlloyd What is that all about eh?

    This word only exists in my brain and it is used as a test word to check where my article is found.

    It is important to test everything that you do. For example, if you are writing articles or doing blog posts then you need to know where best to post them.

    Also if you are going to create a number of web 2.0 pages then you also need to know which ones you should spend time on as they should all have unique content on them

    It is not worth spending time to create a web 2.0 page if it is not going to get seen by the search engines.

    IT is not difficult to check this and you do not need fancy or expensive software to do it either.

    All you have to do is to create an article and embed a unique word or phrase into it.

    After a few days then search for the keyword on google, yahoo and msn as well as any others that you want to check.

    This can also be used to check how fast your website is indexed by google or the other search engines. if you make a post on your blog then check the publish time and check every few hours to see if it appears. Easy eh?

    I use special words in my posts and articles and when it is eventually indexed we will see where my post is syndicated. Over time if the word is found in other sites then we know that the article is being used. You can then check it out to see if your content is being plagiarized or the proper links are being displayed.

  • Making Money Online -One Thing That Nobody Tells You

    Making Money Online -One Thing That Nobody Tells You

    Making money online and working from home is a dream for a lot of us.

    There is a wealth of how to courses available on every different subject you can imagine. Everything from FOREX trading to selling on Ebay.

    The problem is that there is so much choice that it is hard to know what is right for you.

    People get blinded by the temptation of earning their fortune online, they read the numerous sales letter and get caught up in the hype.

    Pressing their buy now button and spending their hard earned cash on a course that fails to meet the promises made.

    The biggest problem however, is not the fact that the course fails to deliver, the main problem is that we all have different talents and abilities. Some of us are good at facts and figures, analysing things and paying attention to detail, others are great at ideas or designing but have great difficulty in understanding html or php.

    The secret to success is to first work out what you are good at and make your decision based on that not on the compulsive, persuasive sales letters that all sound so simple to copy.

    I have spent time searching for something that can help with this decision and there is nothing available.

    I have been involved in a number if different businesses over the years and I have always used other people or companies to assist me in tasks that I was not competent at, or did not like to do.

    Yet, with my internet business I tended to do everything. This slowed me down no-end and meant that I spent days of wasted time learning things that could easily have been outsourced.

    The internet is a minefield and those wishing to get involved need to spend time assessing their skill and ability levels.

    Making money online is easy if you spend time doing things you like and are able to do. so beware of the sales letters and choose something that you are good at before you get going.
