Anticipate FAQ for your Business
One of the first pages that I go to on any website is the page for frequently asked questions. I find that this page usually tells me more about the business and its product or service than any other page on the site. Sure the home page and the “about us” and the product pages [...]
Describe Your Job Like You Love It
One of the first things that we ask someone we’ve just met is “what do you do for a living?” That’s why it irritates me so much when the person answers in a way that makes it very clear that they don’t like their jobs. Many of us don’t like our jobs. However, since it’s [...]
Should I Travel for Job Training?
The work that I do takes place entirely on the web. I engage in blogging, web writing and online social promotion. I can do that from anywhere that I can get connected to the Internet.
