Testingalotlloyd What is that all about eh?

This word only exists in my brain and it is used as a test word to check where my article is found.

It is important to test everything that you do. For example, if you are writing articles or doing blog posts then you need to know where best to post them.

Also if you are going to create a number of web 2.0 pages then you also need to know which ones you should spend time on as they should all have unique content on them

It is not worth spending time to create a web 2.0 page if it is not going to get seen by the search engines.

IT is not difficult to check this and you do not need fancy or expensive software to do it either.

All you have to do is to create an article and embed a unique word or phrase into it.

After a few days then search for the keyword on google, yahoo and msn as well as any others that you want to check.

This can also be used to check how fast your website is indexed by google or the other search engines. if you make a post on your blog then check the publish time and check every few hours to see if it appears. Easy eh?

I use special words in my posts and articles and when it is eventually indexed we will see where my post is syndicated. Over time if the word is found in other sites then we know that the article is being used. You can then check it out to see if your content is being plagiarized or the proper links are being displayed.

Making money online and working from home is a dream for a lot of us.

There is a wealth of how to courses available on every different subject you can imagine. Everything from FOREX trading to selling on Ebay.

The problem is that there is so much choice that it is hard to know what is right for you.

People get blinded by the temptation of earning their fortune online, they read the numerous sales letter and get caught up in the hype.

Pressing their buy now button and spending their hard earned cash on a course that fails to meet the promises made.

The biggest problem however, is not the fact that the course fails to deliver, the main problem is that we all have different talents and abilities. Some of us are good at facts and figures, analysing things and paying attention to detail, others are great at ideas or designing but have great difficulty in understanding html or php.

The secret to success is to first work out what you are good at and make your decision based on that not on the compulsive, persuasive sales letters that all sound so simple to copy.

I have spent time searching for something that can help with this decision and there is nothing available.

I have been involved in a number if different businesses over the years and I have always used other people or companies to assist me in tasks that I was not competent at, or did not like to do.

Yet, with my internet business I tended to do everything. This slowed me down no-end and meant that I spent days of wasted time learning things that could easily have been outsourced.

The internet is a minefield and those wishing to get involved need to spend time assessing their skill and ability levels.

Making money online is easy if you spend time doing things you like and are able to do. so beware of the sales letters and choose something that you are good at before you get going.
