I have. And if you’ve seen me, you know I have a lot of hair to pull. I really like WordPress as my blogging platform. I don’t foresee changing it any time soon. However, with every upgrade in our techie world, as much you hate to hear it, but it’s true, it’s realistic to expect that sometimes the bugs will show up.

I was working on my blog the other day and I added a TweetMeme pugin so my tweets can be tweeted easily; however, it really slowed down loading my blog. So I decided to look for another one.

In my search I came across couple other interesting plug-ins that create widgets on your blog, but when I installed it I could not activate it. You are supposed to drag the widget to the sidebar and I could not select it. It just would not let me.

Issue: cannot select and drag widget

Solution: in the widget window click on the screen options in top right and click on enable accessibility mode

I now use TweetThis plugin. So we’ll see how it works…the only bad thing is that I lost the tweet count that TweetMeme was showing on my site. I guess you can’t have everything – at once.

Another heavily needed feature for me was to hide certain pages. WordPress templates do not do that automatically – at least most of them don’t.

When I met Mike in Dallas at the private party after the conference, he was much more than I expected: he was approachable, nice, funny…and it all started making perfect sense: the guy truly had talent for what he was doing.

His attraction marketing and funded proposal literally changed the internet marketing industry, and my life along with it, but…

Despite the fact that Dillard’s army of experts has put tons of hours in marketing research collecting data for this course. When you’re new, it’s not always easy to see how something that fits great in business “A” would fit into business “B”.

Do you know how to:

>Turn off notifications for a specific person on your phone.

>Retrieve the latest Twitter update posted by the person.

>Remind a friend to update by asking what they’re doing on your behalf

>How to send an SMS invite to a friend’s mobile phone

There are some interesting statistics on people using Twitter I wanted to share with you. In March of 2008 Twitter recorded:

Total Users: 1+ million
Total Active Users: 200,000 per week
Total Twitter Messages: 3 million/day

Twitter also shows these numbers in one of their graphs:

Here is the scenario that hunts 97% of internet marketers.

One morning you wake up, and the advertising money is gone.

The money you set aside to “invest” in your business has literally vanished. You spent it. Whether you got few, some, or none…not enough leads have come yet to pay you back for your investment. The credit cards are maxed out. The bills need to get paid. Your family and your friends are just waiting to tell you: “I told you so!”

Time’s up…What do you do?

• Do you throw the towel in?
• Do you spend more money – which you don’t have – doing more of the same thing?

One of the greatest disservices to their internet existence and profits new reps notoriously make is using replicated websites.

What is a replicated website?

Replicated website is a copy of the company’s main webpage. The only way it differs from the reps is that in the address bar it contains a number after the domain name. That is how the company tracks who brought a new signup: i.e…http://www.greatcompany.com/266372

At first sight, the idea looks pretty neat.

You can always mask their domain name with your own, so the affiliate number is not showing – because when it does it makes it look very unprofessional and lot of peeps will simply take the affiliate number out and just go straight to the main site, in which case you lose the lead and the commission.
