    I like you too, no homo lol 1. Some sites are generalist some not. Bodybuilding.com is generalist, that's what we try to do, but we don't compete, we are like a supplemental source of info. 2. That sucks lol This is one of those cases when people want one thing but need different thing...

    Website name importance?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I noticed that if people want to build a brand and a long term project they will use a good sounding name, short or at least easily remembered doesn't matter if it makes sense or not. And then people who want to quickly build it and sell it use keyword domains so that help with SEO.. Not all do...

    I see what you mean but my goal isn't to build another site like SS or bodybuilding.com. There are plenty of them, my goal is to have people sign up for email tips send once a week. That's where our content goes. It's like a complementary thing to usual bodybuilding sites. I frequent those...

    I can't believe these would work. haha... maybe because I'm into marketing and think differently.. It's definitely great tip to adjust to time of the year and use quick gratification. Missed that one! @Shade, the goal is to get visitors to give their email address to us so we can send tips...

    How to find a partner?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I should be doing this two but on two projects I work now, both are done on handshake. Sometimes it backfires, sometimes it doesn't. You can get screwed over even when you are in agreement officially and then go try solve it legally (which could take longer than if you are unofficial). I guess...

    Suggestion on Creating Website Marketing Plan?

    MARKETING 
    Yeah, this is huge! Connections matter and can push you ahead way further. Now developing friendship with top influencers is not easy cuz everyone's pitching them.. This applies to bloggers/diggers/stumbleupon users etc. There could be an argument made that Digg/SU traffic isn't as sticky as...

    Need advice to help my retail site convert traffic into sales!

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Use smaller fonts, and add border to the site so it isn't stretched in all the window. Most sites are centered in the browser and have certain width. To get some design inspiration go to Web Creme | Web design inspiration ;)

    How Would You Modify THIS Capture Page To Convert Better?

    'Weekend reading' sounds bit unserious to me... Would make it more brandable like 'Entrepreneurial Weekly', 'Entrepreneur's Digest' and when writing a sales pitch I'd write something like 'Must read stories from around the business world that increases your insight and wallet size!' Something...

    Cool to see another email newsletter. Great biz. Good stats too, but I'm pretty sure the open rate is good, not greatest. Def. add sign up form above the fold as Steve suggested. Change dull background into a picture, would make it look more trustworthy. And speaking of that the domain .name...
