Laura DOT the DEAF Boxer UPDATE: 6 hours on her own in the crate with no Houdini tricks today. I think she knows I mean business. Integrating pretty well with farm life and other dogs. She already owns a large part of my small heart.

Ask Laura Why You Need A Mailing List

…you’re leaving way too much money on the table! Most websites created or maintained by people who are new to online business are missing one important piece of the marketing puzzle. Namely, follow-up! Of course there are other reasons websites don’t maintain mailing lists, but usually it is a result of an entrepreneur without any marketing experience. Other reasons exist though (and I’m a perpetrator in this regard), even though I’ve been selling, promoting and marketing online for the last 10 years – you’ll still find many of my websites lack a subscription...

Ask Laura About Website Marketing

“My website is ready and I’ve spent thousands of dollars on it, but I’m not making any money!” I’ve heard it a hundred times or more… Learn How to Start Marketing Your Website – Ask Laura (July 2007) After spending all that money for a custom designed site, or forking over cash for a turnkey website in a hot market, you realize that just because you’ve built it (or had it built), doesn’t mean they’ll come (the customers).

Building Value into Your Website If you are redesigning your website, or growing it for search engine boost and traffic, don’t just add more content on the same topic. Spin off your topic to something closely related and incredibly useful to your visitor. A few ideas are: Add...

Ask Laura About Formating Ebooks

Online marketing and promotion experts will try to sell you anything everything – whether you truly need it or not. When you just start out online you need to keep a sharp focus and one hand around your wallet at all times. One issue that comes to mind when I first started out was the number of people who were promoting ebook formating software progams, ranging in price from $20-$200. I sat with my book written, formated and ready to go for 3 days while I surfed around for the best deal and reading every review on these programs… Learn Why You Don’t Need An Ebook Software Program...
