Gotten one of these recently?

The picture below is from a FAKE email being sent around trying to get people to click links in them and go to websites, sign in with your information and give the crooks a way to:

a. steal your identity
b. empty your bank account
c. both

You'll see them more and more often around this time of the year. A lot of them from Paypal (it appears, but really not them). If you receive one of the paypal ones, simply forward the email to them at spoof@paypal.com and they will set out to alert all of their clients about it. They're really good about following up on them.

Please watch out during the holidays and don't get taken to the cleaners by some Scrooge.

Happy Thanksgiving to all in advance of the day.

When you're committed...

When you are truly committed to your vision, to what you desire to achieve, all will show up magically for you. If money is missing, check with your loving of you and knowing of selfworth. If resources are missing, are they what you really need now in this moment to be successful? If clients are missing, would you really be able to step up & be present with them, or would they be a distraction from you & the creation of the business. When you're ready for them, the universe will roll the red carpet out for them to walk up to and ring the doorbell. It's all about you, the love of you, your connection to you, and your love of all that is. Without love, nothing is possible.

Friday the 13th...Something Special for you

**NOTE this is good until 12Midnight November 14th, 2009**

There's a thought out there that good things don't happen on this date. Well until 12 Midnight tonight you can have them happen to your website or wordpress blog for the next 6 months, AND the first 10 people who use the code word of MORE in the shopping cart will save an additional $800 off the package price of what I am going to discuss below.

If you want to skip the reading, click this link and purchase:

http://tinyurl.com/yjhwx52 - You'll notice this link pasted below a few times, it's to make it easy for you when you're ready to take advantage of this offering which expires at 6pm on the 14th.

Otherwise read on - 

Before we get to the pricing of this package. I want to share some thoughts with you about why you'd want this and what it can do for your website and your business at large.

Search engine optimization or website optimization as its also known is the process by which your website is made to be more visible on the web when appearing as a result of someone searching for something.

In english, someone goes to google, yahoo or bing, types in something related to what you do for business, your website shows up on page 1.

I get these next 5 questions all the time:

a. So how does this happen? 
b. Is it automatic?
c. I heard if I had a blog that this is not necessary, is that true?
d. Will I get more sales from this?
e. What does this do for my business?

The answers to those (which you may be asking right now are):

a. It happens by taking your website information and presenting it to the various search engines once some changes have been made to the site to make it more "attractive" to the search engine. None of these changes are related to the design of the site per se', but rather to some specific code areas within the backside or code area of the website or blog.

b. Yes and no. Some companies will use automatic software to submit your website to the search engines. The ones that do are leaving out some key elements that we don't because we submit both manually and automatically. You never want to work with a company that only does one and not the other. Reason why is because they'll miss some key submission times and days and that will do a disservice to your sites exposure on the web.

c. blogs are nothing more than websites that allow a user to more readily add content to them. Some are easy to perform SEO on as a result of plugins, some others are complex and do not allow the flexibility desired so they're more difficult to promote to the search engines.

d. You may, or you may not. It's never the intent of SEO to produce more sales. The intent is exposure of your website to your target market as a result of their search and to render a result to them of your brand being very visible to them within the results of their search. Top 5-8 results.

e. For your business what SEO really does is to increase exposure of your website in the search results of what people are seeking on the web. Can it increase sales? Sure it can, but that's never the intent. It's the wish and the dream of many that it does, but the plain truth of the matter is that's NOT what the purpose of SEO is, and this is where many SEO's get in trouble because they don't set or manage customer expectations correctly.

So that's the top 5 questions asked of me all the time. Let's take that last one and expand on it a little bit though because you can increase sales with SEO by doing some extra work in some areas that I coach and teach and include in the package that you're going to see when you click that link below. By doing/performing certain regular tasks in combination with good quality SEO, you can increase your sales. BUT These are things that YOU as the owner of your business need to do, we can only advise you what they are, look over what you're putting out, and offer suggestions and guidance around what to do, how often, and what not to do.

Mac OSX 10.6.2 is out

Mac Users: OSX 10.6.2 is out. Make sure you do a software update after quitting all of your running programs. It's a bit snappier, seems to use less ram memory to run with, and my Mac Mini is running cooler since installing it, so there may have been some efficiency updates that they're not disclosing :) I love those!

Strange Macintosh Behavior

Have you ever opened your Apple Mail and there's no messages bolded so it appears as if you've read them all? Or you send out a message and the font is bold even when you tell it not to be? This happened to me this morning and I found a quick solution that saved me from rebooting the computer.

QUIT the FINDER - Now your questions is probably two fold, but basically the Finder is what you look at when you're looking at your screen and the Apple Menu in the upper left has the word FINDER next to it like so:

How do you quit the finder? Simple, Go under the Finder menu to the last item on the menu and select it. It's the QUIT function.

This will cause all of your icons sitting on your desktop to vanish. To bring them back, simply click on the Smiling Face Icon at the far left of your DOCK

When you've done this, the icons will magically reappear. Notice also that when the Finder is not running, it's like any other application in that the little glow dot is gone from underneath it.

When it's properly restarted it gets its dot back as seen below.

If you were having the same problem as I was with Mail, the problem will now have vanished. Relaunch Mail and see that now your unread messages are back to being bolded and when you write a message the font is no longer all bold.

That's your DocMurdock™ Macintosh TIP for this day.

You can also look for me on the Women's Information Network in the Zen of Technology Show. www.thewinonline.com


Happy Sunday.

If you're busy...

If you're BUSY, are you really achieving anything out of the BUSYNESS? Probably not. Normally busyness is created when you don't have a plan and you're grasping at straws. Work even though a four letter word some despise can be fun and enjoyable when it's your passion. So breathe, know you deserve great things, that everything you need to achieve your goals is lining up for you, and just go for it. FEAR? Imagined & created resistance by others to stop you due to their lack of belief in them. You know better :) We love you.
