Things Shaping Up

March 15, 2007

While I haven’t experienced a surge in revenue, I believe things are starting to shape up.  I’ve finally got a basket of sites that I’m dedicated to working on and nurturing through development.  They consist of 4 forums, 8 blogs and a handful of other mini-sites that I will be working with on a more intermittent basis.

I’ve also agreed to help a couple of my friends who are DJs.  They were actually featured on a the “local scene” portion of a major news outlet in Washington D.C.  I figured, instead of helping them, let’s make this thing bigger and put together a huge networking site and community for Deejays around the world.  Enter: Turntable Talk.

I’m hoping for big things out of this forum but will need the recipricol help from my deejay friends to make it a full success.  I’ve done a little DJing but I’m no expert… plus most of you probably remember that I’m the jokester who made the spoof Rap about Making Money Online.

The other two forums are a bit further from being “officially released” and I’ll likely let you know what they are when I’m ready to do an all out lauch.  So… stay tuned.
While I have well over 50 domains, it’s comforting to have regained my focus, if at least temporarily.  Now I can show each of these sites the attention they need to grow.  The past 6 months have seen slow growth and several setbacks, but I truly do chalk it up as experience and think I’m headed on the right path now more than ever.

I’ve also come to utilize Wordpress quite well.  I’ve found a theme that I really find tremendous for imitating a live website and I’ve applied it to several of my blogs.  I’m also perfecting the steps to initially launching a Wordpress blog to optimize it for SEO and other features.  My next post will probably be a quick guide on the simple steps I follow.  Stay tuned… and stay motivated!

    I really like the layout of Turntable Talk, did you design the template or did you hire someone? I’d be interested in hiring the designer to create a template for me in the future. :)
