Productive and Friendly Forums

Yikes, I dislike having such a negative post and thankfully I had some comments on it so it brought it to my attention. So this post is to counter that with some great forums to go check out!
I’ll also comment that I’ve been frequenting forums for over 9 years now. Sadly some major one’s that I learned the most from are so full of spam I won’t send anyone there any longer. But there are still some incredible forums out there that I am a part of …

Negative Forums SUCK

I went back to a huge forum recently.  Huge as in really helps my links even when I’m not trying.  It has always been a negative place, but those links are just so good at times.  I need to rethink if the links and traffic are worth the headache.
Tonight I redid that.  I posted to twitter about a post without putting the actual post up.  BUT I did send by friends to it.   After 5 sweet posts asking for how things worked, I got tired of it and I was …

Networkingwahm.com for Sale

As you’ve been reading from my posts so far this year, it’s time for me to let go of a lot of sites and focus better.

How to Become a Copywriter

What the heck is a copywriter anyway? You’ve probably heard people talk in the last few years about copywriting and how much money you can make off of it. There are all kinds of writing that someone can do, but copywriting is definitely one of the most profitable.
Copywriters produce material that helps sell a product or service. They can write slogans, advertisement letters, anything that sells. And if you can write copy that makes something sell, you could make hundreds or even thousands of dollars for …

Complaining About Being a WAHM?

No really. This one is a difficult one to balance. ARE YOU SERIOUSLY COMPLAINING? Yes, I understand with all my heart that it is difficult to sleep, get the new baby to nap and get your hubby in gear. But if you haven’t tried to get to work while having kids at home then OMG you seriously need to go find a job outside the home so you can appreciate what you are complaining about.
I was lucky. SUPER LUCKY!!! My parents didn’t …

Focus Issues

Today I’m having a tough time getting anything done online. I can’t seem to figure out why I can’t focus on my business right now. I have a list here by me of things that really MUST be completed. Yet I’ve wasted at least 3 hours. Now I did go through a few emails, so that was productive. But it wasn’t any of the important things on my list.
I have no choice but to get this stuff done, doesn’t matter how much time it takes …

She chose me as a spotlight for January and I was blown away with what she wrote. I mean, …
