Hello
Sheryl,
You gave us
a lot to think about in your contribution here.
You said
that you liked the fact that my blog wasn’t just one advertisement for
something. I don’t like the blogs that are just that. They are not at all
subtle, and as blatant advertising, they tend to turn people away, which is, of
course, the opposite effect to what the writer intends.
There are
those who have a whole series of free blogs, all with the one blatant
advertisement and this, to me is rather black hat stuff.
My other
comment that I’d like to make about this is that a one advertisement blog only
encourages other advertisements to be posted in comments, if they get any
comments at all. I actually translated a blog posting for an online friend of
mine very recently. He wrote in French and I translated it into English. He had
a very interesting point to make about the topic of blatant advertising on
other people’s blogs or forums. I’ll let you take a look for yourself here.
The other
point I’d make about this is that a good blog is one with content and interesting
topics. On the other hand, I believe that a blog shouldn’t be too ‘crowded.’ If
there is too much on the page people will not want to spend the time reading
it, as they are usually very busy people. A crowded blog or webpage is not
pleasant to the eye. This is my opinion, of course and is not carved in stone!
I’m not
familiar with the B2evo system, I must admit, but what I like about Wordpress
is that it is easy to use and you can create new pages easily, which is like
having multiple blogs, and it is just like having a website without getting too
technical (if you get challenged like me). You have used some terms in your
post that are not familiar to me. I don’t have to worry about that, because I
have my Success Patrol team who deal with that for me, or instruct me, if I ask
for explanations.
I want to
concentrate on my passion, writing. The
technical details and setting up of domains and cpanels and all that jazz, I
can leave to my friends at Success Patrol that like to do that sort of thing
and are good at it. I have every confidence in them.
I see that
Scott has made some valuable comments on page 4 of this discussion about blogs
and the Success Patrol system.
The last
thing that I’ll say in this posting, is about internet marketing online
and making money from your blogs. The chaps and chapesses at Success Patrol are
constantly researching on our behalf to get our blogs, along with the system,
highly ranked etc. as well as teaching us how to market using our blogs. This
is a big aid.
Also, as
our friend Thomas said to me in one of my other forums, quote
“I think Success Patrol is very useful with info put in by all to
help you recognize your potential in marketing. Tim is a great business
partner, I had fun personally to give him a showcase on his business, I
knew from him way back his marketing skills but to actually have the
privilege to be in the same company with him is awesome for me."
Thank you
for your contribution here Sheryl.
