If something feels uncomfortable then get excited because you're on the brink of a potential breakthrough. Push past the discomfort and benefit from the growth.

Turns out Twitter is a great place to test messages, as you can see in real time the click through rate of the messages. If a tweet get no clicks then you can amend it repost and see what happens, great place for PPC advert testing, However the value of each message is very short lived, the click through rate falls away after a couple of hours as the timeline moves very quickly and people do not often trawl through your previous messages looking for stuff....an idea for a competition perhaps. If you want to get followers then follow heroes in your niche, my latest twitter account was created in this way and has generated 170 followers with minimal effort from me. function sbmgOptinValidateForm759(name,email) { var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm759' + '_' + name); var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm759' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n'; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

So....how many posts will you do this year? Getting "out of your comfort zone"..........I have done loads of this over the last 18 months and although it's really scary at times, I have to say it has really paid off and I love it! I plan to do lots more things that will definately get me out of my comfort zone as this is what is getting me to my goal - a passive income life :) OK Matt - hope you have a good year this year and maybe will bump into you at another event somewhere. Bye for now Eileen function sbmgOptinValidateForm245(name,email) { var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm245' + '_' + name); var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm245' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n'; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

Like the looks of your blog and would like to ask you how added your Author section with Image. I'll subscribe by RSS . I will post a guest blog on my blog with proper links and author bio.
