Thank you for noticing. While I do make some money online I am definitely not nearly as effective at it nor am I doing what I already know I should be doing because my priority has always been for helping others.

I do have to focus more on it and if you read the discussion just above your comment that starts here you’ll know how I will be doing it.

My focus is on keeping small businesses from failing due to the economic downturn. That is made possible by the support of two high quality businesses owned by very good-hearted people that I work with every day. What they pay me has made all my research and posting possible and benefits them and everyone else too.

If it weren’t for them much of what is available here would not exist because I would not have had the time to do the research I share here. Because of them hundreds of other businesses will survive. I hope anyone reading this who can use their services will do so.

They are:

Pete Ekizian, owner of my favorite online personalized gifts store Executive Gift Shoppe.

Bill Sutton, owner of Good Millwork whose Florida mill supports sixteen families.

Both of these men are highly ethical, brilliant and keep me constantly researching and learning. Without their support I would know far less and teach what I learn less effectively.

I use their businesses often in my examples and you can find links to them on my disclosure page and a 125 x 125 image for Executive Gift Shoppe in my left sidebar (sidebar is what WordPress calls column). Please support them whenever you can – they ARE good people.

That is the need that Andrew set out to fill. His course is step-by-step how-to do it. For example, he doesn’t just say install All-in-one-SEO plugin. He tells you where to get it, how to download and install it, how to configure it and how to use it.

That is what we all need – precisely HOW to do something. I have know for over 16 years that I needed to build a list and for at least a year that AWeber is the best solution to use but I still do not know how to actually make that happen myself.

With Andrew’s course now I will and I can finally make it happen. THAT is why I have no doubt that his is THE one worth paying for and Kikolani and I have already decided we’re both going to buy it and work through it together. Read her recent Income Blogging Guide review for more details on the course.

I hope that my readers and hers both realize that by buying through an affiliate link (hers or mine or anyone else’s who has provided you with valuable information) you enable them to share more.

I ask that anyone reading this use my Income Blogging Guide affiliate link or Kristi’s or the affiliate link of whichever blogger has done the most for you.

Doing that allows us to afford tools like membership in the Income Blogging Guide and write even more valuable information for you. We invest our time and knowledge so you know what is worth buying and what is a waste of money and get the most out of whatever you do.

I invite anyone interested in collaborating to join when we do and connect with us. If you have the time and money to do it now – don’t wait! You’ll be making more money before we are! Do share with us what you find most valuable in the course.
