Online Entrepreneur’s Guide to Web Design
Tags: blog design, business advice, Online Business
If you have an online business, or you’re planning to launch one, chances are that at some point you will be searching for a web designer to redesign your current site or create something completely new.
A different path to choose is to buy a premium, out-of-the-box website template.
Either way, no matter which path you choose you still want your website to be well designed and to represent what your business is about.
However, how do you tell what is good web design and what isn’t? Is a website good just because you like it visually? Is everything that looks good suitable for your business? Or maybe we’re not even scratching the surface…?
Unfortunately, we’re not.
Are You Doing the High Leverage Activities in Your Online Business?
This may be a shock for some people, but the fact is that not everything you do matters.
I’m sorry to be the one to break it, but that’s just the way it is…
We all like to be busy, well, maybe “like” is not the best word, but we surely feel like we “need” to be busy. Doing different stuff, answering emails, looking at stats, tweaking this and updating that.
Has it ever occurred to you that most of this stuff simply doesn’t matter? That you could stop doing it and nothing would change (when we’re talking your online business)?
Don’t Be Running Around Like a Chicken With Its Head Cut Off! Use Some Systems in Your Business
One of the most common questions asked in every business at any stage of its development has to be: “what’s next?”
Knowing what to do next is not so obvious, nor is it easy to decide on the best possible approach. We all know that everyone has a different situation, different business, and we all feel that our own situation is very unique. That’s why we’re often skeptical about any piece of advice we get, and we’re even more skeptical about what should be done next to bring us closer to our goals.
One thing that is sure to help you/me/us not to be running around like a chicken lacking its head is to use some systems. Now, by systems I don’t mean a fancy piece of computer software or anything. This is actually a lot simpler.
Regret I Didn’t Come Up with These Myself… January 2012
Tags: blog advice, blog tips, business advice
The early part of every year is really heavy on all the new year’s resolutions posts. No matter what you’re interested in you’ll always find a resolution post on your desired topic.
And I’m not saying that it’s a bad thing. I mean … I’m kind of guilty here too. This year, for example, I might have written four of such posts myself…
(Here they are, by the way: Things to Ask Yourself About Your Online Business in 2012, A New Year’s Survival Guide for Bloggers, 31 New Year’s Resolutions for a WordPress Blog, Where to Find Design Inspiration in 2012)
It seems that the only sensible approach for January’s edition of the regret series is to take a look at some cool posts of this kind. So here’s a set of 7 great blog posts from the past month (January 2012) which I regret I didn’t come up with myself.
One more thing … you don’t actually have to take them seriously. There are some cool pieces of advice there, but it’s always up to you to select and execute only the ones that make perfect sense to you, your goals and way of living.
