Membership Site Arrives
It has taken me a while to get the hang of the configuration and model but at long last, I have this site configured as a membership site. Postings here on the blog will continue. Most of the posts will point you to the content within the membership areas.
Basic membership is free and will give you access to files, articles etc to help you learn internet marketing. Once in the membership area, you will be given the opportunity to upgrade to a premium membership for even more advanced materials.

If you are anything like me, you’ve spent time online trying to figure out how to make some money. Actually, how to make some serious money, not just pocket money, but a living which allows for the freedom and lifestyle you dream about.
I’ve downloaded files, paid and free, until the most I’ve got to show for them is gigs of space used up on my hard drive. Some I’ve read, some I started to read and then got distracted to the next ‘shiny coin’ and some never even got opened before I got distracted.
The problem was first off that I hadn’t yet developed the mindset which I needed. I needed to embrace a business model, plan and implement it, and then work on it until it either succeeded or showed me why I failed at it.
If it failed, then pick myself up and get on with refining what I was doing until I got it right. Instead, I kept looking for that one magic new bullet that was going to make it all work.

Do You Twitter?
If you have no idea what Twittering is, you probably are either new or you’ve been ignoring a lot going on. Twitter is a very popular microblogging site which allows you to post(tweet) 140 character ‘slices’ of what your doing as often as you want. You follow other people who are twittering and people follow you. You can post about the mundane, the insane, the ups and the downs, the pain and the joy, whatever. The idea is to share and enjoy the interaction.
I didn’t get the whole Twitter thing when I first looked at it. Primary because, like Facebook, I couldn’t see how I could find the time to keep refreshing a website so I could see what other people were doing. Then I started to discover some of the Twitter tools that were available and started to understand the draw.
