OK! The SEO class starts tomorrow. I came on at the tail end, so I’m ready to get started. I’ve read a few messages, but not many since I knew we were at the end of the group. It can be a little confusing since they keep the group open continuously and you don’t really know where you are when you join. I was kind of thinking about waiting for the next class anyways, since I don’t have much time, so it was great that I just signed up over the weekend, and came right at the end.

How often do you check your websites? I just started building websites in the past 6 months, and I really didn’t know too much about the smaller direct sales companies until then either. But there is a direct sales company that closed in January, and I just went to a website that had an ad for that business, and had it listed as one of the websites sponsors. Now me being as nosy as I am-clicked the link, and it didn’t work. I’ve never been to this website before, and I really don’t think that I’d go back again. After all, if you can’t take a company that shut down in the middle of the night 6 months ago off of your website, then I don’t think you’re keeping the website up to date enough for me to want to get information from you. The strange thing to me is that it apparently this was a big deal when the business closed, yet I’ve seen the business listed several places-there are still forums which have the company listed..I personally think it would be easier to click the button and delete the whole forum for that business, but at least put a notice up saying the company is defunct so people won’t be posting messages about how to get involved with a business 3 months after it closed. I’ve also seen people calling for that company to be a vendor at a vendor fair, or to be a sponsor for other sites…now it’s mainly in lists of direct sales companies, but I would still want to know a little about the companies I was thinking about sending my customers too, and I would like to think that I care enough about my business to check and make sure every thing is up to date. I’m sure you get busy, and forget to do things…but still… 6 months is a long time to be advertising a dead business.

Well, I finally decided to order some boots from zappos…who knows why, since I can never find any shoes that fit me in the store. Of course they didn’t fit 
they were gorgeous though. I guess I’ll get to see how well their return policy works.
Fun, fun.
I’ve taken to listening to conference call and business radio stuff at work. Some of it is actually very interesting. Which is amazing to me since I hate talk radio. I’ve been listening to Dani Johnson, at danijohnson.com, wahm talk radio, and direct sales talk radio. So far most of the stuff has been very useful. I’m hoping to find some more exciting stuff later. I tried today, but I was having trouble with music match jukebox, the stuff would download, but I couldn’t hear it, or it would stop after 5 minutes, which is really annoying when you can’t fastforward, and have to listen to the same stuff over and over again. The error message on the jukebox thing kept saying to uninstall it, then reinstall it, and when I uninstalled it, everything worked fine, so I just left it uninstalled. Oops.

Woo hoo, I saw an ad for free web site at wahm.com and I responded. He’s going to help me out with E-tailers Mall! I am so excited. I really didn’t think I would qualify since I already have a website up, but I have been hoping I could do more with it. I know I have limited web design skills, and it could look a lot more professional.
In other news Jeff and I are writing a book. This is gonna be fun.

I’m taking the yahoo seo class, that I heard about at wahm.com I’m a little nervous. I have to be on individual messages, and they get around 50-100 a day. I already have so many because of all of the yahoo groups I’m in, but it will be all right. I’m kind of excited too. I have heard this is a great group, and I hope I learn a lot. The seo class is combined with a website marketing class, which I really need too, so I really think the classes will be useful. I’m also taking an optional website development training class. Everything I learned about html I learned in the barnes and noble online university website class. I was really impressed with it. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be But there’s still a lot more that I need to know, so that I can make some fancier webpages, and get E-tailers Mall looking like I want it to look.

I finally got my own website! Let me tell you, it’s a lot easier to upload to earthlink than it was to this, until I figured out how to do it. Anyways, it’s at www.mystical-beauty.com, so stop by and check it out…yeah it’s the same as the old one for now, I’ll try to get more reviews up soon! It’ll also have our very own forums! No more network54 passes trying to get in our way! I’m still working out the kinks on it, but it will be at http://www.mystical-beauty.com/forum! I am so excited. Stop on by and say hi! Hopefully we’ll have more people posting since it will be easier.

I think I found a webhosting site! It only took me all day today, and yesterday. I hate making decisions. I want to make sure everything is perfect.
