You have to learn the dry stuff before you can move on to less dry, advanced techniques.

I'm currently reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows.

AND

"How to make your point in just a minute!"

Pretty good. Both books.

Would you like to give a short synopsis of the book you have read?

I am reading Writing Copy for Dummies. Teaches the basics of copy writing:

Ideally your copy should have benefits, an offer and some news (industry facts).

The header is supposed to hook the reader into reading more. The body is to list fully the benefits, and to build desire for the product.

The end of the copy is to inspire the reader to take action.

You meant "Zhuang Zi"?
It is authored by Zhuang Zi(yes, the book is of the same name) from the Period of Warring States of China(That's about more than 2000 years ago)..

He shared about the nature state & true freedom of life & the real meaning of perceptions & values..

Reflections from within..

Hi,

I have just completed reading the 'Dream Achievers' by Andre and Eric Masi.

It is abt the compilation from 50 people whom has been successful in Network Marketing biz. I read this book because I want to find out more abt this line, so that I can correct the negative mindset on network marketing, or MLM in common language.

Very motivating book. Can be borrowed from Bk Merah library.

I am reading "how to make your point in just a minute"

And like the title says, the book teaches you just that.

The core of it is,

1 what you is your message?
2 how do YOU contribute to the topic
3 and the way to say/deliver your message

Using such techniques for my Uni interview!

SEO? There are two major parts in SEO. Internal and External.

Internal SEO means you have to optimize the URL, description, Title to include the keywords that you are aiming for. Like my weight gain blog is called :www.healthyweightgainfast.com, and the title is also keyword optimized.

External SEO means you have the number of backlinks (links to your site) will help push up your Google rankings. The more links you have, the better. Links from a .gov or .edu site count slightly more than normal links. And if Google thinks you are an authority your chosen keywords/subject, you will get page rank (PR). For example, SSuF has a page rank of 1.

Reading and compiling on some strategies on ads that sell and bring in the results for business..

Can't really describe as it is more like a practical process, rather than a theoritical analysis..
You got to experience it to know it..

Hi admin,

On the part of external SEO, you mean e.g. in your articles, to have as many backlinks as possible that links back to, say, your squeeze page, will get you rank higher in searches?

Yes, articles that have links (just one per article is enough) back to your site are good. The more the better. For my healthy weight gain blog, I wrote articles on article sites like eZine Articles, Squido, and Hubpages. (Can't remember my passwords for those sites!)

Each backlink will be counted by Google. The more you have the better. SSuF has 65 backlinks. Please help increase it. Very Happy

Yaps, last check today, of 54,700 searches, I am still No.1 Smile

But this is really experimenting the concept of SEO only. I think probably the next step is to really do a biz on the web and to drive traffic there using the SEO methods.
