Custom WordPress Websites that Rock!
I'm a big fan of RSS (real simple syndication) - it powers a bunch of stuff you may never think about. If you get my newsletter, it's because of RSS. I also read about 200 blog posts a day - all via RSS (and feed.ly). RSS makes the internet better for busy people. Much better. I'm also a fan …
My top 3 reasons you should thank RSS for almost everything on the internet. Including 3 bonus very cool things you didn't know RSS could do. So, I came across a post in my Feed.ly about RSS that combined a couple of my favorite things Facebook and Blogging (and as a subset, RSS). Post by …
So apparently yet another Google product is going the way of the dodo bird. This time it's FeedBurner. HINT: Even if you don't care about RSS, it's time to find a new RSS delivery system. Remember, your RSS feed isn't for you, it's for them. We want to make it a great experience for …
I've said it before and it bears repeating. We're in a constant battle for attention. One of the reasons we blog in the first place is to get our message out. The problem today is that the attention span of the reader has become so very short and new information is bombarding them from all angles …

And why should I care? This week I've had two potential clients talk to me about their websites (we're going to revamp what they already have) and both need to understand what Canonical means when it comes to the content on their websites. Maybe you do too? It's all about Duplicate …
I believe the three day weekend is a huge boost to the small business owner. It certainly is for me. It's not because we can get away to the cabin or lake for 3 days. It's not because we can get together with our friends and families. It's not because of the BBQs, parties, the mountain bike …
Here we go again with another EPIC blog post... ;) I am presenting a webinar for a group of real estate agents today and I thought I would share the same content with you as I did with them. Here's why every agent needs to OWN their own website and why it should be on WordPress. Like any of my …
You might know I LOVE my newsletter system. It's an automatic, RSS driven newsletter that delivers the posts here on the site directly to my subscribers. There's no other system out there that keeps my name, and what I do, in front of the people that matter most to my business. It's the …
You know I'm all about new technology, cutting edge stuff and being engaged with your audience. Real conversations, real relationship building. Automation? Nope. That's not me. I'm also no "Coach". I build products and sell products. Along the way I know what works and what doesn't work and …
Last post I described in detail why I have a newsletter. I also mentioned a bit about how it all happens. Did you read that yet? (click here) The one roadblock to all this success is getting people to sign up for it in the first place. Here's what I'm doing right now to build my Newsletter …
