I don’t know about you, but I realized I have this underlying low-grade anxiety over online activities.
Perhaps it started when my blog was actually hacked into (twice).
Imagine a client and friend sending an email saying, “I clicked the link in your email and got a big red message that the site had a virus.”
It happened […]
Keep Your Blog Secure!
Technology–bane or blessing?
If your web site is ever hacked, it will feel like a huge bane. If not a curse.

Be Well Heard by Cutting through the Noise of Too Many Messages
You know how it’s so NOISY out there? If you’re like me, you feel you’re constantly fending off advertising.
You can’t switch on any kind of media, surf the Web, go to the grocery store, or drive your car from one place to another without being bombarded with messages.
The trouble is, you as an author or […]
Get your question answered on Internet marketing from the best …
Marketing on the Internet–many “gurus” purport to show you how.
Frankly, I’m always a bit skeptical. There are only a few people I trust.
