    The Bragging Thread - Inspire A Newbie

    My day job. We sell appliances locally so most sales are in person or over the phone. Not my business but i've built it up from nothing and working here part time keeps a roof over my head for the moment and frees me up for my personal stuff. Also means I don't have to freelance :mad: 7K FB /...

    The Power Of UGC (User Generated Content)

    @TacoCat yes do. There are all sorts of ways to get people to send pics back and in my tests it's better marketing material especially on social. I like the idea of having a section on the website I may implement that : )

    How Many Earning Sites Do You Operate?

    1 site that is making most of my online income and one that is a WIP but turning a profit and scaleable. I still sell myself 3 days a week doing dev / IM which pays my rent and gives me a steady wage. So 2 days and evenings / weekends I have to build my empire. I read somewhere that the...

    Talk me off the Wordpress theme bloat ledge!

    I've gone in to projects and bought themes with every feature going thinking it will be easier to build what I want. 99% of the time you won't even use 99% of the features. I will go with speed every time now.

    Q: email delivery services

    How many records do you currently have? I am using Mailerlite at the moment. It's cheap and easy to use. Does the job. My e-commerce sites are built on Woo Commerce so what I do is export the customers email data using a plugin and then import it in to Mailerlite. It's not as full featured as...

    Does it HAVE to be a .com TLD?

    I've got the perfect brand name for a new site but the .com is taken. I can get the .net / .org . Is this a deal breaker? It's a perfect brand but my gut is telling me get a .com. Maybe I could so brand-random word.com... Any thoughts on this? Thanks,
