Have You Ever Seen A Turkey Run?

Published by admin under web design & blogging

Turkeys run across my front lawn every day. Dozens of them, sometimes. Here in Texas there is even a town called Turkey, named for the wild turkeys that lived along the creek when the town was founded. So we are used to
turkeys around here.

It is fun watching the turkeys’ heads pump back and forth as they run and how, as a group, they can’t run in a straight line for anything. They will run a little, then fly for a few feet, then walk aimlessly around for a while.

Turkeys aren’t always like this, however.

The other day I saw a video of a turkey chasing a police officer. The police officer was scared and running away from it as if he was being chased by a criminal waving around a sawn-off shotgun.

It was hilarious.

That turkey wasn’t distracted at all…it had extreme focus.

Proving my point that all of us perform better when we have a goal and a purpose behind our actions.

That Is one of the reasons why Stephen pierce wrote Make Real Money on the Internet. To help give YOU extreme focus.

The book is a real book, not an ebook. It will arrive in the mail and you can read it away from the distraction of your computer and take it with you into your backyard, the waiting room or as you travel. After you finish reading it you can keep it by your computer for easy reference.


There are so many ebooks out there priced at $47, $97 or much more and they end up as clutter on your desktop too much to the time. But here he giving you a real book that he wrote his self, with a retail price way less than the average ebook.

But you won’t even have to pay that.

All you pay is a very small shipping fee.

A steal, don’t you agree?

Most beginning internet marketers get distracted. They move forward, have a set back, then more success and get distracted all over again. Kind of like those turkeys on his lawn that he was talking about earlier.

But not you.

You will have access to his 7 steps to making real money on the internet with all of the insights he share from his years building his business to the $10 million per year company it is today.

P. S. And that’s not all. When you order his free book, you get access to free money making software. It is the next phase of marketing intelligence and yo will want to get in on it.

Blog Comments and Reputation Central

Published by admin under others

Shhh!When people think of reactions from blogs, they normally think of negative reviews or inspiring stories.

Comments aren’t usually high up on the list of monitoring and watching what’s being said online.

Yet they should be, as a recent post by David Henderson and the subsequent conversation in the comments section show.

I won’t go too much into the actual blog post or the comments, as they’re both recommended reads and will give you a far clearer view of who may be in the right or wrong. What the post does highlight is that a blog comment can go even further than a blog post at painting an individual or company in a less than flattering light.

The gist of the post and resulting conversation is that David Henderson suggests that WordPress is an excellent medium for hosting your own online newsroom. Countering this is Steve Momorella of TEKgroup International, a company that develops and maintains online newsrooms.

What could have been a good discussion about both the validity of having your own online newsroom and how good WordPress is at running such a tool instead develops into a messy claim/counter-claim regarding the post and follow-up comments.

David seems to take umbrage with a comment made by Steve about the usefulness of WordPress and calls it a lack of understanding on Steve’s part. Steve is unhappy about David’s “disrespect” and so points out an error on David’s website.

This then results in other commenters joining in and by the end of everything, there’s a veritable “he said, she said” feel to everything.

While it makes for hugely entertaining reading, it also shows how a simple blog comment can taint someone’s view. I read David Henderson regularly. I respect him immensely and find him to be a great source of information and knowledge (although his constant putting down of PR does jade, after a while).

I didn”t know Steve Momorella prior to his comments on David’s blog post, but I do know of him now. Because of that blog post and its comments, I felt both David and Steve came out a little less positive than they otherwise might have.

While Steve’s comments have merit, they did come across as slightly leaned toward promoting his company which could be classed as comment spam. Whether that was the intent or not is down to Steve’s interpretation.

For David’s side, I felt he was being a little defensive and it maybe encouraged Steve to counter more than he would have.

From an outsider’s point of view, it could be seen as Steve is a promotional spammer and David doesn’t like comments that disagree with him. I know this isn’t the case with David and I’m guessing it’s not the case for Steve.

But see how easy a conversation in blog comments can sway a point of view?

Are you always thinking slightly about what you say and how it’s said when you comment on a blog? Or do you feel that it’s not something to worry about too much and just say what you feel regardless? Can comment conversations get away from you?

The comments are yours (no ironic pun intended).
