Michelle’s new experiment

I had a meeting with an amazing entrepreneur yesterday and I have to say, he’s got me all excited about what’s to come for me and my business!

Anyway, one of his many projects involves a way to have your own website built automatically (yep, it can be done!), so I figured I’d set up a Home Equity Solutions website to see what would happen!

Also, he told me that one of the main keys to success and boosting a site’s ranking was to add regular, unique content on a regular basis.

This is so true. His suggestion was to add some content every week and soon enough you will begin to get found in the search engines.

Now, it’s been around 24 hours and I’m already ranked in Google after following the steps outlined in his tutorials. So I’m pretty impressed so far! It’ll be interesting to see how much traffic I’m getting over time and I’ll be sure to post my results!

How to add products to your Zen Cart

Adding products to your Zen Cart starts by adding categories first. These separate your products into groups and allows for easy organising of your products or services.

Offline advertising - why it’s losing its effectiveness

More and more businesses are turning to online advertising and there’s a very good reason for that - most people are searching online now, and are therefore turning away from traditional advertising.

So what’s the point advertising in the Yellow Pages or the newspaper, if your prospects aren’t going to look there for your services?
