Free Traffic Tips

I went over to Associate Programs, Allan Gardyne’s site, because I hadn’t been by his forums in forever, and there’s always good information circulating there. While I was there I found a great free ebook on traffic – it’s the most information you’re going to get about traffic free, short of … well, short of a blog about free traffic tips.

Head on over and get your copy, totally free.

Is thank you. I’ve been going through some issues lately, the details of which I won’t bore you with.

Sometimes this business can be really hard and kind of lonely. If not for your business associates and friends sometimes, it feels like you’ll go nuts dealing with the special issues an internet business with a moderate level of visibility will bring. In rough times, there isn’t the same kind of support network there is when you work in an office, or run a family business. In some cases, there’s no such thing as a personal or sick day, let alone a brief sabbatical, if you want to keep your business afloat.

Unless, of course, you end up with your own network of reliable business acquaintances and friends. And there’s one person I leaned particularly hard on during this short interim, who just went way beyond helpful. Big thanks to Antonio Thornton for taking time out of his schedule to back me up in some pretty dire moments. His name might not be familiar to you, but you’ve almost certainly come across his handiwork, probably in the past few weeks — he’s been in the background in quite a few launches lately, a couple of them pretty major, which I won’t embarrass him by naming.

Thank you for all of your help, Antonio. You’re a man of character and integrity.

Yesterday was blog day, when you’re supposed to list some of your favorite blogs. I’m going to try to do blogs that aren’t on my link list or in my side bar only, for blogs that I don’t write for or partner wi.
