His coaching program was more than I could spend, but I did get your SEO Traffic ebook. Like many other ebooks, it sat on my C:drive shelf . . . until NOW! I'm taking it down off the shelf, dusting it off and will use it as my traffic bible.:) Glad you're back to blogging. I enjoy the material you offer. I did find a mentor, Alex Jeffreys. I see several of my class mates have stopped by to visit with you, too. Happy New Year, Theresa BTW, you're only about 3 hours from me. Maybe some day we'll get to meet in person. Hi Shannon,

I know a lot of martketers are now using Twitter and Facebook a lot and I'm sure they wouldn't spend their time with it if it wasn't worth it at least on some level. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help Christine! Best Wishes, Shannon Hello Christine,

I have been following you for a while now ever since i saw your case study with Michael Cheeney. Do you go on twitter and what are your thoughts about it? I am trying to try several traffic strategies to get traffic to my site. I really enjoy your posts they are very helpful. Best wishes Christine www.christinehowardonline.com Hi Shannon,

Now I simply turn it into a flash video and upload it directly to my site. If on the other hand you are talking about videos that show my computer screen, I use Camtasia Studio for that... I got a discount purchasing it through Techsmith (using my son's kindergarten status to get a student discount) so it was only $179... but still not a cheap piece of software... worth every penny though since I am doing a lot of videos these days! I hope this answer helps Dave! Best Wishes, Shannon Hi Dave,

And a great eye opener... I was like so many others that set-up their blog with out thinking. I just wanted to get it up and running. I should have done my homework first and decided the keywords I would theme my blog around and then research those keywords and what not. But, I guess it is never too late to do that. So, I will put aside some time and work on building my keyword lists for my blog. Joshua Collins http://ISeeNewPeople.com Shannon,

I've been REALLY bad about updating this blog... I'm sorry to everyone that reads it :( Very interesting, I didn't know that Alex Jeffery's had mentioned me... that is very exciting to me to know... thanks and thank you Alex if you read this :) I guess whether you should incorporate your passion with your blog is a matter of where you want your blog to go right now... my passions are my business, my family and traveling... but to date I have pretty much kept my family and traveling out of this blog... I'm not saying I'll never incorporate them into this, just haven't done it yet. Thanks for the comment Roy! Best Wishes, Shannon Hi Roy,

Just a newbie here from Alex Jefferys class, he mentions you quite often. Just wanted to check you out and now I know why he talks so kind about you! Wasn't sure if I should include my blog link or not, after seeing yours, mine needs some help! (LOL) It is from the heart though and I will get better in time! Just quickly, I am learning a lot from Alex and I trust him as well. I am trying to use his knowledge not only to capture a piece of this online thing but more so enhance my passion which is health and wellness! I hope to find a correct way to actually include my passion on my blog but not sure if I should right now? Take care and all the best to you Shannon! Roy (A Newbie for now!) Hey Shannon!

For the past few years, as a hobby, I have been modding and have recently "retired" in order to keep my bank manager happy ;) I recently set up a site (a blog but in a sort of magazine format) here: http://www.topnotchmods.net/ but doubt I will have time to develop it. My last game I released, Viking Invasion II (September 23rd 2008), received over 15,000 views and over 450 posts on the main site for that game engine but not a single sign up or purchase of an affiliate product.lol. VI2's extremely popular and has had some great testimonials, and a best-seller pc gaming magazine may be featuring it in the new year, but it is illegal to charge money for mods so despite having about a half dozen under my belt I cannot make a penny from them directly. I think there must be a huge market for mods though - if you read my words on my site then I explain why. Starrweaver,

There's a good size niche for free to play gamers...and it's growing due to the economy downslide.The pay to play niche is still pretty strong too, so I'll be hitting that side too with another site shortly. I've not finished all the pages yet, but it's getting there. I'm using adsense and will add some affiliate banners too on some of the other pages. I'm going to be offering free gamezines to download as well as subscriptions in the store. I've done my meta tags and keywords, I get good adsense feeds and my wordpress.com blog is set up now too. I know I should do some articles, I just wish I knew what else to do to get things flowing...any ideas? I don't know how to set up those automated rss feeds and such to get my blog moving. I wish I did, but that stuff is still over my head. If you know about any sites that offer a summary about a site - like how good it is and if there's points to improve, let me know. I've heard of one, but haven't found it...yet! Thanks for all the info about traffic, I'm planning on using your guide once the site is done. I just hope that I can offer some great info and get some money at the same time. Have a great holiday season!
