I don't know your situation, but my advice would be to not isolate yourself so much.
I'm not saying you have to "meet up with the boys" every few days. But see and talk with another human outside your house every now and then.
If you're in mumas basement everyday grinding that's great. But...
Without outing my upwork account / site... something like
Need expert for xx to do xx. Cant really be more specific than that.
Titles definitely play a role in hiring though you're right. I guess one title could attract the mentality of one group, and another could attract a whole different...
Looking for people with strong knowledge of my vertical / niche that can help market my brand.
I've found some good channels I want to promote in, but don't entirely have the knowledge to make useful or helpful comments.
I've tried upwork but failed miserably multiple times. I think...
Discipline doesn't come overnight so building a routine like you've mentioned works.
I did something similar. I wrote a daily routine which included when I would eat, meditate, exercise, scratch my balls etc.
If you have it set in stone you know what's coming next so there's no pissing around...
Seems to me that this update was just rolled out to clean up the trash. From that report I see that they hit thin content sites and heavily advertised sites. Same old stuff, no?
I'm keeping like a 8:1 rato on my site. 8 informing posts with zero affiliate links, and 1 money post. Do others...
One thing I learned was to not send mail out on rubbish day. People are more inclined to check their letter box and then throw half the shit straight into the bin.
Another tip I picked up was to customize each letter you send out. Make it very personal so they think you took the time to help...
I thought that was too easy of an answer, my apologies. I use a framework so I'm used to hooking PHP wherever on the fly.
Where do you need it to go? The code below inserted the date code into the header (tested). It goes into your functions.php file.
function yearInject() {
?>
<h1><?php...
I agreed to post an infographic for a site in my niche. Instead of posting the infographic, this guy just copied parts of my money page, then stuck a link at the end.
I'm not quite sure what this halfwit is playing at, but is this going to be an issue for me? Should I disavow the link if he...
I think this post should be added to the begging of the digital strategy crash course. If you're not able to make these connections from the start of a new venture, it's going to seriously hinder your success. I mean, if you can't separate yourself from these people, not even physically, but...
You can send an offer directly to the freelancer after they do the work for you. This will be done using the hire the freelancer button. You'll click that, then enter the amount $, add in the job desc / task, send the offer. They'll accept it, you can close it right after (provided this was a...
You can click "hire freelancer" BUT when clicking it, make sure to select keep the job open so it doesn't close it, and you can keep getting people to apply for it. You can hire multiple people for a project.
Or you can just give them a task, but don't officially hire them, just tell them it's...
1+ to everything @backwoods said. Additionally if you find a pair of socks you like, hunt for a better deal. There's resellers of resellers on there, so there's a chance you could be paying more than you need to.
No brainer... but always use escrow
Here's a follow up question to the people that have put out over 500 in a month...
Why did you pump it all out in one month, rather than drip feed it out?
