Site Reference Forums

G'day John. Welcome to the forum, Mate.

Here's my rather harsh advice. You can take it or leave it as you choose.

So you've had a bit of a play with Publisher. My first site was built with Publisher. See the post: http://forums.site-reference.com/topic/ … Rolls-com/

Save all your content to disk and wipe the Publisher stuff. No future in it.

Start from scratch with a proper html editor or a WYSIWYG editor. Quite a few free ones available.

Unless you learn to use it properly, you'll get into many of the same errors with a WYSIWYG editor, as you have with Publisher.

Best wishes with it,
Laurie.

Thanks Nic

Our offer (promise) is rather simple - allow me to digress a bit by describing our target clients = Losers:

4 Types (all Old System/Game, all Not Profitable)

• Losers - fearful, greedy, distressed traders

• Bored - traders who break even at best

• Repeat Losers - traders who crash (emotionally) & burn (financially)

• “Winners” - hopeful of having a profitable business

So, our offer is all about helping our clients shift from Losers to Winners (developing a lucrative trading career + a very profitable business - in a matter of months) for those who qualify.

Sure it's about becoming a high roller with $$$ as you said, but the aim is winning, period.

Thanks again for your supportive comments.

John

High WaveShoppe

Thanks for that comment - credibility. Hmmmm

I've thought about that, as another viewer made a similar comment a year or so ago. Not sure what to do to bring that forward for you and others who have that impression? I'm certainly open to your and any other's thoughts and suggestions.

The Trademark issue is really simple - as a consultant for over 25 years, much of what I have offered executive clients in banking, real estate, and high tech over the years I created, shared, or otherwise generated hundreds of documents over this projected period of tim. So when I present writings from the 70s, 80s, and 90s within the DayTradersWin site, I feel it apporpriate to note that all my material on the site has this legal protection from unlawful use. My Day Traders Win internet business has only been in play for a few years, so I can see how you might find this strange.

Thanks for taking the time to comment and I hope you feel free to further comment about what you observed and recommend in the area of credibility.

John

Hi WaveShoppe,

And I thought using Red to connote Losing comments and Green for Winning comments would set the mood for the text.

On the copywight, it's probably easier for understanding, rather than explaining, to use a time spread of 2002 to 2008 - thanks for questioning it.

Elizabeth - thanks, I think.

The "shit" part was a bit much don't you think? - you must have been horseback riding with your laptop when you came up with that one. You're a hoot.

A little perspective for others (with possible interest) might be in order, if you will allow. I'm going to quote a few lines from my recent help request email to you, I'm sure you won't mind, so other's can get a sense of my goals and needs (wants).

"I have a 2 stage approach I want to run by you.

First, I need to get all I can get for prospective client draw from my current site (Publisher generated, as you recall) – getting rid of any coding errors, design crap, appropriate content only, and so on…. – before I present this same site with more clarity, punch, power – with an alternative software/development program (like you were talking about in your offer a while back).

Second, I will have a “world-class” site – attracting suffering or otherwise Loser traders, who have been longing to become [b]Winners [/b]– with both a Lucrative Career + Profitable Business – bla, bla, bla

As I add content, I would prefer to use/learn the software – either on my own or with a top-notch marketing/design/SEO expert (like yourself?).

How will I/we accomplish both?

Well, that’s the purpose of this email; to talk with you about all this, get your guidance, and, should we talk about doing business somehow, your costs for any services."

So, Elizabeth, you are not interested in the above and have referred me to Barry Densa - thanks, you're a straight shooter and a friend. I'll contact him and I'm open to him (he?) or any other professional contacting me to help me get out of my own Website "shit", if that's how they perceive it, and solving my dual problems, as follows again:

1. Keeping business alive with my current site (working out the kinks), until this site is appropriately done over.

2. Create a superior, replacement web site - present new, powerful, and far more effective (prospective client draw) -  new site design software (?), writer (?),  presentation (?), and so on.

By the way, is seems you left the impression I was trying to "free-load" services on this or any site. I thought you knew me better than that. I don't give my services away, nor have I ever anticipated likewise from any other profession for as long as I've been in business. Don't ask how long that has been - as it would date me - heh heh - and purhaps limit my relationship possibilities with special Ausi women down under.

Thanks kims - we all agree my site sucks.

You can't have 2 versions of the same sit up, as we know, so it's fix what I have while getting a pro to redesign the site. Been talking with a couple experts since yeater.

I'm open for any suggestions to make the current site more effective and offers to fix the site in the long run.

Thanks again, Kims

Ah yes, but bunging on a blue is a good way to get some optimized content to go with your backlinks, huh?

Relevency! Relevent anchor text!

Good stratergy! He just may have got what he came for, huh?

A site in that much trouble with Google needs a good backlink building programme such as has been implemented.

Regards,
Laurie.

The nofollow in the review request is a nonsense.

We all have links all the way down the page. I've got about 5000 SR backlinks. You'd have three times that.

Won't do me much good, of course. Relevancy! I'll have to start bunging on fights so I can waffle on using photography, camping and motorbike key terms to get the relevancy to my backlinks.

Top strategy! Guaranteed to bring top placings in Google, Yahoo and Live in less than a week! Yes Guaranteed! But not guaranteed by me.

Regards,
Laurie.

Thanks matte.

Yes, I understood that you meant the nofollow on the review link.

It's a nonsense because the requester fills in their profile with a link in the website box and three links in their signature.

Evey time they make a post they get another four backlinks.

This is the whole essence of the forum spam that we get, whether it be a normal post or a review request.

And if someone can bung on a blue, which happens every month or so, while ever others keep responding, they get more relevant backlinks if they're clever enough to fight about their keywords/phrases, as we have seen above.

Of course, the links won't do the spammers much good if they are so naive as to not understand about the relevency issue. But that doesn't stop them filling up an otherwise good forum with spam.

Regards,
Laurie.
