Last night I had my weekly Webcast (every Saturday Night at 8pm EST), we were talking about traffic, and I asked the question “What do you want your visitors to do when they get to your site, what is the main goal?”
I was kind of surprised at the range of answers. But even more surprising was that only one answered “email”. It seems that the procrastination is abundant when it comes to email marketing. What will it take to…
This one has had my blood boiling for a couple of days, but luckily I was too busy to get my rant on here at Hot Blog Tips about it. I say “luckily” because I can be pretty hotheaded when it comes to a rant, so having a couple of days to let the blood come back down to temperature will probably help keep me from making too much of an ass out of myself.
As I was making my…
This weekend, I am going to start work on a new product for Hot Blog Tips readers. I have put a lot of thought, and taken lots of notes (which I still do on paper!) Yeah, I know, it’s a little archaic, but I love having ten legal pads scattered everywhere!

It’s amazing to see how the web is constantly changing the world. Nowadays it is imperative for you to own your own slice of the internet. Thankfully, you can make your online presence felt in a flash and let your brand be known to the world. Building your offline (you know, the REAL world!) brand is a long process.
