Spam Commenters-So Tired of You
I'm thankful for my spam blockers as I don't go through the spam file any more. It's just too full and if you put links in your emails then you don't deserve any of our time. But lately every blog has just been hit by so many commenters loading their name field with keywords. I appreciate that many of them are actual comments, but I am [...]
Forums –Timewasters or a Great Place to Network
As with everything else online, using forums is a matter of opinion and personal preference. There are two distinct opinions when it comes to forums. Some feel that they are a waste of time and can easily drain your day away. Others feel that they offer fantastic networking opportunities and information. So who is right? Are forums a [...]
More on WAHM Value
In case you missed the start of this discussion, I posted Value as a WAHM after a twitter discussion was started. It not only prompted some great discussion via twitter and my blog post, but it also has brought up the topic at WAHM Talk Radio. My friend Chrissy is an intern on WTR and brought up some more good points. I felt the need to bring [...]
Value as a WAHM
I brought this up on twitter last night and I was very sorry it was so late. Some great discussion was started, but I just couldn't stay up and still be productive this morning.

Advertise Locally
Guilty, I'll own it. I even have part of my business as a totally local biz, but I still don't remember to convert all my advertising to being local. Sometimes being online keeps my head thinking only online. I am a VA, but why does that have to be strictly virtual? Why wouldn't some local small businesses want a contractor to help them [...]

Is Your Marketing Vanilla?
If your marketing campaign just isn’t working, or you’re just getting started, take a long look at what you’re trying to do. Is it exciting? Is it eye catching? Is it unique? If not, you’re campaign is likely too bland to get anywhere. It used to be that simply advertising your business could get you more than enough customers, [...]
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 [...]
