Great To See You Again! Since You're Back, Make Sure You Continue To Get My Posts Via Email Which Gives You Access To My FREE Marketing M.A.P That Shows You How To Get More Traffic For YOUR Site!

I just quickly wanted to share this idea with you. As you work on building your blog remember that it serves as your homebase. It is the place where your interested readers can come and get information about a topic in various ways.

Your blog reflects you and your tastes, ideas and likes/dislikes. It is a place for you to share what you want, talk about what you want and give what you want. If there are others who vibe with you well, they will take a liking to your offering. Don’t be overly concerned with those who don’t!

Take content you have created such as your articles and post them to your blog. Take your videos and post them to your blog. Post other people’s stuff to your blog too, afterall, you must find content besides your own useful right? I certainly do.

Add some color and some pizazz to your blog. Like my favorite color is red, so you seen that color tone throughout my blog. My banner is a personalized banner that was created by my friend Barbie Figeuroa. (If you need a banner done, find her on twitter at http://www.twitter.com/barbiefigueroa and hit her up..she is awesome!) Take the affiliate programs that you promote, or at least some of them and add them to your blog for monetization. Be sure to add a cool signature line (you can see how to do that in a previous post). If you’ve noticed, I’ve even added an audio to my blog so people who have never heard my voice before can listen to me in an attempt to share more of the real me with them.

All in all, just go for it. Start with the layout of your choice and go from there. It won’t all come together at once, I would be lying if I said it did for me…it didn’t! I screwed up this doggone blog a trillion times before I got it “right” which is just a matter of personal like and taste. Put yours out there and start blogging. Tweak as you feel the need to. It’s yours so you can change it as much or as often as you like. You are in control!

My friend and colleague Kurt Henninger shared something cool in this video that I didn’t even know about! So I thought is was definitely worth sharing with you. If you still have not created a twitter account, you are missing out on alot of connections as well as free traffic you could be getting!

So, if you haven’t already done so get going with a free twitter account and be sure to follow me. I will surely follow you back! http://www.twitter.com/traceywalker

Remember to please leave a comment!

It is early Monday morning and I was just thinking about the many conversations I have had over the weekend with networkers really looking for success. And here’s what I learned.

Some people want the success, but want it handed to them on a silver platter. With all the bells and whistles. They want it without really having the desire to work for it. I don’t fully understand this train of thought so it is difficult for me to address. For example, there are people who have literally said to me that they want to quit their J-O-B’s and want to do it in 6-9 months, but then turn around and say that they don’t know if they have the time to complete the necessary tasks to ensure that desire. A bit of an oxymoron to me!

Now, there are others who say they want success and they make the time to read, study, and listen to every conference call/webinar. Yet, something happens where they never take action. Excuses are part of their everyday conversation. No progress is ever made, and then they say that the business isn’t working for them. Huh? Let’s see, if you say you want to be a gold medalist runner, go to the gym, watch other people run, learn the techniques from the sideline, but never get out on the track yourself to run and practice and improve, are you deserving of a gold medal? Can you say that the olympics is not working?

Lastly there are those rare few that not only say they want success, but stumble actively along the road of improvement, perseverance and commitment. These rare few work long hours at the job and then come home to tend to family and yet burn the midnight oil to take another step forward in their online business. These types always have time…because they make the time. This breed doesn’t complain about what didn’t work this time because they spend their time looking for ways to make it work next time. These are the stars, these are the Rhinos in the jungle, these are the people just like me!

So as you proceed with your business, ask yourself, “am I really willing to do ALL that I can to succeed? Do I really want to enjoy my life being free from the corporate slavery? Am I equipped to handle the downfalls as well as the great achievements that will come on my journey? Is it totally worth it to me to go out, create my own future and live life experiencing all the abundance that is here to partake in? Is it worth it to me to work extra hard everyday for the next year to NEVER have to worry about bills, lack of time or family neglect again?

Well if you are anything like me, your answer to all those questions is a big fat YES!

If you are fighting the battle of fear, procrastination, doubt, etc…get that out of your psyche. Someone, somewhere, has put that in your mind and now you and your life is suffering as a result of it. Unnecessarily! Get on the right foot. Not only learn what works, but DO what works. Practice what you read and hear, don’t just read and hear it! Be an active marketer, not one that sits back hoping a check will fall in your lap.

Go out and GET what you deserve….and that is…MASSIVE SUCCESS!

(ok, I guess I’m off my soapbox for today, LOL!)
