    Targeting local market in SEO

    Simple and straightforward. Any keyword that you would use globally or nationally for a broad match, add the towns name. You WILL rank at the top of the results organically if your "on site" seo reflects the broad match with your town name included. Hope this helps. I have done this for two...

    what kind of business education is needed?

    The short answer is "no". If you have the internet, local libraries within a five mile radius, and/or a bookstore within the same radius, there is no reason why you should be able to build a foundation on how to start a business from scratch or learn how to acquire an existing business. Self...

    Moving Forward Daily

    WOW, I watch plenty of golf and did not know to attribute this quote to Woods. It speaks volumes and before I read it, that is how I think EVERYDAY. I look for one thing, I don't care what it is but I usually go for knowledge, that I know I will be better in the next day. I have been doing this...

    Are Forums Making a Comeback?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I did not know they had fallen behind. I use both equally and probably started using both at the same time. I joined my first social network in 2001 and my first forum in 2002. They both are equally important in different ways in my opinion.

    The New Internet Boom, Get Rich Slow

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I rarely leave threads to read external links. I usually just save them to my favorites but always read them. This was worth the immediate external link exit. Very, very motivational. I know I am, and have been on, the right track. Thanks MJ.

    How to Grow Your Blog through Customer Development

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I will be sure to check back in on this thread. However, that one paragraph really speaks volumes. I could just take the mantra of that statement on and use it throughout the rest of this spring and summer.

    Targeting gender (female) ... what are your thoughts?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Actually it is a classic issue of Business 2.0 November. Let me find it..... Here it is: Pink symbolizes femininity and calm. Red symbolizes power, activity, rescue. Orange symbolizes movement, construction, energy. Yellow symbolizes light, future, philosophy. Green symbolizes money...

    Would you recommend Google Adsense

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I would recommend it as long as you already have internet real estate that is on its way to being successful. It just won't pay the bills by itself, and in my opinion, you should never expect it to.

    Targeting gender (female) ... what are your thoughts?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I would have to respectfully disagree. The OP stated he is "targeting." There is overwhelming evidence that women dominate the internet in every category from searching to spending. It is so competitive going forward that you MUST choose. He is choosing the money. To the OP, that is a good...

    the 1st 5 people you call when you make your first million(s)?

    Re: the 1st 5 people you call when you make your first million(s) For the purpose of this thread, I will answer the question the OP asked: Mom so I can gloat Dad so I can tell him I just made a deposit into his account. Sister so I can tell her she can expand her business. My accountant. My...

    Any Internet Marketing Experts Here?

    MARKETING 
    The storyline is great and the content is awesome. However, I would shorten the length of the article and the length of the paragraphs. People usually maintain attention for three to four sentences then break. I am not an internet marketing expert but it is what I do for a living. Article...

    Is Traditional Blogging Dying?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Overall, it could be. The internet can be fickle like that. As has been said in the thread, it depends on what you are blogging about. Social networking and blogging cannot be allowed to be synonymous. Similar, no doubt. It is a limited market to begin with. People that love to read and love to...

    Before you Take on a Competitor in Public...

    I think it was well thought out. For a casual car lover, I follow these two pretty closely. Spec to spec, Audi might have an edge but it is debatable over the lines that they offer in each class. I know Audi wins "Best in Whatever" the majority, if not all the time. BMW is just that though, a...

    Interesting notes from lunch with a RE developer

    This is good info. Not new info, but good info. It hold more weight for me due to the fact you described a personal private discussion you had and just wanted to share it with the forum for our sake. I was a small fish and even I saw the writing on the wall. I got out of property investment in...

    Jewerly business question

    I am very optimistic by nature. However, I don't allow that optimism to cloud the facts. I receive a very, very solid wealth newsletter from a company based in Delray Beach, FL. This is an excerpt from October 29, 2008 that I would just like to share to add some perspective: 'My...

    Wealthy VS Rich: There is a difference

    MINDSET 
    Good read. I agree with it in very broad strokes. Everyone should strive NOT to be poor, however, at some point in your life you will be broke.

    Would you change the past??

    Kneejerk answer is yes. However, I have no idea what lessons I would NOT have learned if I had not taken it for the team early on. The experience, truly, has been priceless.
