    Sales Down For 3 Months - Help?

    HOT! MARKETING 
    This is one of the difficulties with relying on SEO, especially now Google are reluctant to tell you which keyphrases your visitor find you with and some phrases converting much better than others. All traffic does not convert equally. If someone finds your page selling nautical themed jumpers...

    The first website I chose from your testimonials page (http://www.courtneyjack.com) only displayed a message saying I needed a newer version of Adobe Flash. My question is: If it had loaded, would it have looked as good as your website?

    I actually thought that post was going to be an April fool. Post 1:"I'm going start a nutrition blog to make over $100,000. The main criteria will be: I will spend no more than $100 on a domain and will not not leverage my existing contacts." Post 2: He then buys a domain for $1889, links from...

    MINDSET FEATURED! 
    I've never really got the 'this is the sea/my pool view where I work' thing. I'd much rather work indoors, in a quiet, cool office with zero distractions and zero sun glare.

    Passion, Fun, Success and do whatever it takes?

    MINDSET 
    I think what @MJ DeMarco means is that the question is stupid, the guy is looking for a way out, or reason why it can't be done, rather than working out what needs to be done and then finding a way to achieve it e.g. sell some stuff on ebay and pay a freelancer to do it. A lot of people (most)...

    I've read all your posts in this thread but other than you focussing on one site (which is actually three) and posting about how to get started Carp Fishing (information which is freely available) I am struggling to see what the need is that you are going to meet.

    The first months of your new business. How was it for you??

    So what are you doing now? Just because something isn't 'fastlane' doesn't mean don't do it. I created a business that wasn't fastlane but it took me from working 8am - 7pm, 6 days a week for someone I despised, to working for myself a few hours a day Mon-Thu while paying me much more money...
