Web Resources From The Guy With The Best Haircut In The World

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007

Thanks to all who participated in our Planning For Profit Seminar! We had a great turnout, with folks attending from various industries & backgrounds.

Here are the resources I mentioned:

Afro Web Guy

  • Google Analytics - A great statistics tool that tracks people who visit your site. (Very pretty reporting and it’s free!)
  • Aweber - Keep in touch regularly with customers by sending out automatic, personalized e-mails. Also check out 1ShoppingCart as an alternative. (Both offer Free trials!)
  • Keyword Selector Tool - A great start to find what words people are *actually* searching for. (Remember: jar candle!)
  • Google AdWords - Start getting people to your website by “bidding” on keywords. (It’s free to create an account!)

If there’s interest I’ll create some tutorials for you guys. Just let me know!

P.S. Just so you don’t think we kept the iPod Nano for ourselves — and believe me, I *wanted* to — the winner was Steve May from Quality Connections. Congratulations Steve!

We’ve Just Launched Our New Site

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007

Let me start by saying: Welcome!

You’re one of the first people to experience the fresh new redesign of our site.

I know, I know- you’re *tingling* with excitement right now. (I’ll go ahead and pause so you can breathe into a paper bag.)

We’ve added lots of new features this time around. The most obvious is probably this blog! Why a blog, you ask? Well, it’s my business to spend quite a bit of time working on the internet- some might even say unhealthy amounts of time (But what do they know!)

Truth is, I’m great at making web sites that *successfully* sell your product, market your services, and represent your business.

I’m also real honest- I’ll tell you things here that other web companies don’t want you to know!

Check back often if you’re interested in:

- Improving your website with techniques that *dramatically* increase your sales.

- Learning about Search Engines, and how you can use them to drive lots of traffic to your website.

- Keeping up with the Web Industry, and learning new ways you can use it to profit your business.

I’ll be posting here frequently, so please be sure to check back often!
