Good morning sweet friends!
I just got a great question in my email. It comes from one of my dear friends who is a part of my private coaching client circle. I thought that you might want to see my answer to her–it is actually something that I just found for my sites a few weeks ago. You will love this!
Does anyone know if you can make a “blind” page on WordPress? I want to create one page just for family and friends. I usually send out a Christmas letter each year but want to drive them all to my site this year. I don’t want the general public to be able to view it, I just want to send an email to family and friends with the “private” page.

Blogging. Ready to begin your own blog, but totally overwhelmed? Not sure where to begin or even what to do? Have no idea of how to get started (or restarted) on the right track? Well, dear friend, this article is FOR YOU! Let me take you by the hand and share some ideas that have worked for me…
1. Get a vision. First things first. Who are you? What are YOU all about? What is YOUR message? When others come to you, what do they ask you? Take some time to really think this one out. Your blog will only be a success when you find YOUR voice. Pull apart and get a vision. Keep your blog simple, clear, uncluttered, and focused. Stick to who you are. Don’t change up every day. Don’t add in content that does not go along with your message. Get a vision for what you are to be all about and be ONLY that.
2. Set it up right. Don’t take short-cuts. If you want to build a successful business, invest in your “home on the web.” This is not an area to skimp by or put off. [Read more...]

Incoming links offer your business website two main benefits. Incoming links increase your website traffic which of course means your conversions and sales increase. Incoming links also increase your search engine ranking because search engine spiders from all the search engines including MSN, Yahoo, and Google, all use incoming links as part of their ranking and indexing algorithm.

Links which come from websites which are relevant and trustworthy have more weight than non-relevant links. [Read more...]
