Always start your blog with your own domain!04.26.10

I spent most of the day working on transferring Dot’s blog over to her own domain.  It was rewarding to be able to figure out things and make them work!  All I have left is getting the footer and sidebars complete – it doesn’t seem like the widget functionality works very well; maybe that is something I can fix in the future.  Then the chore of importing the Blogger posts – it is fairly simple and most pictures and video transfer just fine; but WordPress likes to put all of Blogger’s “labels” as “categories” instead of “tags” and that is a real nightmare – especially since she has 350 posts!  If you are serious about keeping a blog, get your own domain name right from the start, that way you don’t have to start over building page rank when you decide you need more control.  WestHost has some great deals right now, and their customer service is fantastic.

Looking Forward to my Workday10.30.09

Milk and OreosAhh, a glass of cold milk, a handful of Oreos, my laptop, and the baby monitor all snuggled next to me in my bed with lots of fluffy pillows and soft blankets.  Yep, it is time for my workday!  And Fridays are always fun, with Follow Fridays on Twitter.  A nice and relaxing Friday at work for a couple of hours.  Meanwhile, my husband is out shopping for a new car!

Money is Time10.29.09

I mentioned on Twitter today that I was playing Wii golf with my family this morning, and someone asked how I had the time.  This is definitely the best perk of a home-based business.  I definitely do not want to give this up for a job outside the home!  I see my followers growing exponentially, and my traffic is exploding.  Time is Money, and in this case, Money definitely means more Time.  I am looking forward to many more mornings doing enjoyable activities with my entire family.

Time is Money10.29.09

I can only work 2 and a half hours a day at best, and I have finally figured out the best way to spend my time.  I will be exclusively marketing Genesis Rocket.  I am getting very good at implementing the plan fairly quickly, and I am hiring my family to help with some of the details, about 30 minutes worth per day.   Two-and-a-half hours should be plenty of time to work on my marketing strategy and still have a little time to work on my blog.  The best fortunes aren’t made by sitting around and doing nothing, after all.  The good news is that this is a lot of fun to do!  Who knows, I may get even better at it and work even less!

Baby At Work10.28.09

Working at home today was a bit interrupted, but at least I can still work a bit while the baby is napping on my shoulder.  I couldn’t do that anywhere else!
