The World Wide

Posted on December 3rd, 2011 by Jerry under Business, Computers and/or Internet, Life, Money and Finances, Opinion, Technology and gadgets.

When I go to the weekly networking meeting with my friends I sometimes have a hard time sitting quietly to listen to some of the folks there that are promoting their businesses. The reason that I’m saying that is because some of these folks are a little bit rough around the edges when it comes to their presentations.

One of the business people there is self employed as a business promoter. Basically he just stands up and says that he can help businesses with their SEO for their websites. I think that he would be more effective if he explained to people why that is important because there are a lot of people there that don’t even have a website for their businesses! The Internet is making the world a smaller place, and if people want to grow their businesses, I think that they should at least consider having their own Home page to help people find their business!

So anyway this guy talks about using a pay-per-click service to help drive traffic to his customer’s websites. I think that pay-per-click can help, but I think that is just one of the many ways that people can increase their rankings and visibility. I’d like to encourage folks that want to monetize their website or promote their website that they need to carefully look at the Advertiser page and the Publisher page of any website that is claiming to help people with their SEO and get a better feel for how that company actually performs their SEO marketing functions. And reading them carefully might give you a better idea of exactly how professional that company really is. If their website contains a lot of spelling and grammatical mistakes, you might ask yourself if this is really the company you want to represent your company on the Internet.

Small Business Marketing

Posted on November 27th, 2011 by Jerry under Business, Computers and/or Internet, Money and Finances, Shopping, Sports, Technology and gadgets.

This horrific economic mess that we have been dealing with for so very long now, has certainly made it a challenge to bring in enough money to keep things together, things can get “unglued” so quickly. So I have been spending a bit of time playing around with a website I started some time ago but never really got it off the ground, so to speak. My hope is to make a little money on the side to help out with all of the bills that just keep piling in each month. My site offers hunting products and supplies along with other gear that are specific to the area that I live in. The problem is that no one seems to know about my site and the good deals that can be found there.

The one thing that I recently researched and learned about was that it is not too awfully difficult to increase the amount of traffic on my site. By using , a company much like RevLocal, in which they can work their local search optimization magic which will then increase that amount of people/traffic to my site and help me get the word out and hopefully generate some much needed sales.

I’ve learned that there is so much involved in having a good quality web site.  First of  all you have to have the right web hosting and lord knows that that can be pretty tricky if you don’t know what you are doing or getting yourself involved in. And then of course you have to have a good IT to help with all of those issues that an every day person would be clueless in.And lastly you have to learn all about small business marketing and all that it has to offer via the Internet. It’s all about specialties these days!

Out Building Issues

Posted on November 20th, 2011 by Jerry under Business, Computers and/or Internet, Home and garden, Shopping, Technology and gadgets, Weather Issues.

Almost each day I find something that makes me realize just how badly this place needs work. The one out building that is used for the storing of and the using of various tools and the like, is in such sad shape that I find myself doing without or doing something else in an effort not to have to go in the darn place. Besides smelling bad, the dampness has attracted numerous bugs and god only knows what else has found it’s way in there.

What I really need to do is empty the whole thing out, put in a nice tool box and a new workbench and start filling it up again with only the essentials and in an orderly fashion. I’ve seen some nice workbenches online, which would do nicely in there. I don’t think that this is going to happen any time soon, but something to put on the back burner, to be sure.

Something else I want and need to do is to start planning on purchasing some out buildings made of metal and/or steel. I’ve hear a lot about these Future Steel Buildings that seem to be right up my alley. I know of a few people that have gone with these Future steel buildings and they couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Next time I get a chance I’ll have to look up the website and start researching for myself.

The Pick Up Artist

Posted on November 18th, 2011 by Jerry under Computers and/or Internet, Education and Personal Growth, Entertainment and Fun, Opinion, Technology and gadgets.

I had never really been into using those so called ever popular pickup lines when it came to the meeting and the dating of women. I usually just introduced myself to someone and took it from there. But I do know that there are a lot of people (men & women) alike who really do feel the need to come up with something cute or witty in order to make an impression on their targeted prospective mate. I know/knew so many guys who consider(ed) themselves to be a “top notch” pickup artist and totally get into the finding of the perfect thing(s) to say when trying to Attract Women in this crazy messed up world. They can be very entertaining to watch and listen to. The reactions of the women are sometimes even funnier then the so called pick up artist.

I have found an interesting website – puaforums.com that has a lot of information for people that are looking for a variety of ways to meet people and a good amount of interesting pickup lines to try out. Amazing what the Internet now brings to us, guess it makes sense but it did catch me by surprise, but made for some interesting and entertaining reading for a while last night while eating my dinner and before retiring for the evening. Give them a look-see sometime if you have the need or the want to. I’ll be checking back from time to time at puaforums.com to see what’s new in the pickup line area, not that I need to worry about any of that business any more. Married with children….

Ditto LOL

Saw this on Facebook today and it just cracked me up. Most of the time the photos that I see posted on Facebook have been pretty lame so it really felt good to chuckle out loud at this one. I swear I know a few people that would do something like this LOL!
