I’ve received a lot of feedback from readers regarding – "How Do I FTP files?"

I decided to put together a short video showing you how easy it really is.  Also, I mention the hosting service that I feel does a great job.  That is Blue Host.  The quality is great, very easy to use and the uptime is almost 100%.  If you like using WordPress as your website then you’ll love Blue Host.  It’s easy to install in your root directory, allowing easy operation as your website.

Here’s the video, sit back and enjoy.

Nothing is more satisfying than building a [tag]website[/tag] that is considered an Authority Site.

No matter what your area of expertise is, if you provide high quality content, others will respect the effort, the information and reward you by visiting often.

When you add different types of monetizing efforts with an authority site, you can create a nice income stream. Making a living utilizing your creativity is always rewarding. Especially if the alternative is working for somebody else.

Here are a few Authority Site works-in-progress examples that I am building:

- CallCenterCafe.com

- RightToLead.com

- DebtRepairOnline.com

- BlueSkyBrothers.com

I have approximately 30 more sites that I am also working on, and during this process I learned that it’s important to get the right hosting company, the right design and the right integration of web 2.0 services.

Making the wrong choice can cost you in both time and money. However, making the right choice can make the authority site and profits happen sooner than later.

For instance, I firmly believe that setting up an authority site with all the functionality of a blog just makes sense. Doing it this way allows you to take full advantage of web 2.0 systems to drive targeted traffic.

That brings me to the point of this post. If your interested in setting up an [tag]authority site[/tag] you need to read this manual that has all of the top [tag]web 2.0[/tag] tools listed in one spot.

The value of this report is $197 but you can download it for free by going to my business site called www.blueskybrothers.com. The download link is on this post….Instant Traffic with Web 2.0

Make sure you download this report and use it for a reference.

To your success!

I’ve tinkered with several niche websites in the past.  A couple of examples are below:

But recently I stumbled on a results driven solution for website design and publishing.  My friends have noticed. 

Whenever, I experiment with something new I let my friends and family check it out first and provide feedback.  Well, the feedback that I have received thus far is overwhelming in support of my new system.

I love it because it is easy to add content and when I do it pings the search engines.  But more important are the traffic results.  This site, www.gregmeares.com has not been up that long.  I am already getting a lot of traffic and I have over 121 blogs/websites that link to it.

So with that being said, if your interested in checking out this system, I put up a new page outlining my steps.

If you go to Website Development you can learn more about how I do it.

Regards,

Greg Meares

Can you say too much work and not enough time? 

Right now I am getting hammered with this high class problem.  And trust me it is "High Class."  The alternative is having too much time on my hands.

My day-time focus is working on my call center responsibilities, but when I have the time I build websites.  The overall number of projects I have are somewhat overwhelming.

I found some really awesome tools that help and do a great job when building a quality website.

Here is the list…

Have you heard of web 2.0?  Well the power of using tools that fall into the web 2.0 category really help with traffic generation.

That’s why I’ve moved to only building sites with [tag]Wordpress[/tag].  I my tool of choice is the SemioLogic Pro Package.  The level of ease combined with the professional look is awesome.

I have so many websites up in several niche markets that I have a lot of experience with Hosting companies and my favorite is Blue Host.  Their price is right but the tools available and the ease of use make them the top choice.

Here are a few example of the recent websites I have built with the SemioLogic Pro Package and Blue Host, (BTW – this site is hosted with Blue Host and this is just one of the templates from the SemioLogic Pro Package.

Check out the sites.  The big advantage of using this system is the amount of traffic you can generate with the fantastic [tag]plugins[/tag].

Have a great day!
