I have the scratching my butt part down... I'm working on the being sexy like a robot part ;)"
"Oh man... that guy napping at the top of that page is SEXXXY! Especially when he scratches his butt. :-) He looks a little bit like you, but I don't think you could possibly be THAT sexy. "
"Luc, you crack me up. I'm not sure if it's intentional or unintentional comedy on your part. :-) But how can I not laugh at a guy whose myspace name is "lucxxxhot". That's funny!"

Mark Flockhart replied to Marshall Mathers's discussion 'Paid Access Pricing Needs To Change!'"My network would benefit from a percentages today but 5 years from now taking a percentage of my sales would be unfair. Thinking long term I would rather pay a monthly fee.

Mark Flockhart replied to Marshall Mathers's discussion 'How is everybody's spam?'"I get a spammer once every 10 days -- not happy. I've caught them all within an hour or two myself but no spammer bot warned me yet. I wonder how long of a delay it is before it catches them."

Motivation!
I could end the blog post there. Do it! Follow it, create it! Your attitude will control your success. If you want to be successful then you need to stick it out. Usually the time things take off are right after you quite. Don't miss out.
Self development is a form of motivation but not the same. Both will help you reach the goals you should have set. Do you want to have 5,000 members, or $10,000 a month? I don't know, what I do know is that if…

What to expect
Google doesn't disclose what niche is better or what click through rate is on average. You need to test your own. There is very little averages with Google Adsense. Typically the average click through rate (CTR) is low. 10% is high.

It's a well known fact that you have approxametly 4 seconds to make someone like your website or they're gone. I just wanted to let you in on a little secret. People get overwhelmed with the toys you allow them to play with. What happens to kids when they're given 30 toys for Christmas? They get tired angry and end up in their room without dinner (smirk). Too many toys to play with and the value starts to dissapear the more they open another present just like the first.…

You have a point there - what would you consider the disadvantages of going to Wordpress? There has to be a way to do an open-web magazine type of feel with a Ning...the adventures continue...I have some work to do! :)
- At 8:43pm on December 17, 2010, Saniya said…
Im considering going to Wordpress, and starting over there in 2011 - with a new look and a fresh take on the whole thing. Going for more of an open web-magazine feel instead of a private network. Plus Wordpress doesnt cost me anything! The interface is a lot cleaner and they dont have the keyword and tag problems that are here on Ning - and not getting fixed anytime soon.

Well - it's getting there. I've had it for almost a year and to be quite honest signups have been slow going and member engagement could be a LOT better. I feel like I'm doing a lot of work for very little return from the members. With wedding websites - the girls want a lot of info without having to sign up it seems!
- At 8:45am on December 14, 2010, Saniya said…
Thats awesome, looking forward to your Vector site - I'm very into graphic design and all things codey :) I run an anti-platinum wedding site specifically for Desi/Indian (dot not feather) chicks who are into DIY, planning on a budget, etc.
