OVBlogger: Blogging and SEO

Sorry guys, I know that I work in that world and love every one of you in it, but I just have to say something here… FOR THE WOMEN.

If you’re like me, you may have spent 70-hour weeks in the corporate world doing the same job that men did but making far less money. Didn’t that just totally piss you off?

And when I learned I was pregnant after 20 years of hard climbing up the corporate ladder, I decided to chuck it ALL and raise my own child.

So, then what?  My brain hadn’t died.

I became a writer. I did that for 10 books, and then, I found this world–one where I can pretty much do what I need to do. I still work hard, and I even have a full-time job, but it’s all from the comfort of my home, working with people I totally love and respect.

Well…

I met a woman at jvAlert Live and just fell in love with her energy. She’s super marketing savvy and just fun to talk to and be around. And she’s a mom, just like me, only she has 4 young children to my one now grown daughter.

Her name is Carrie Wilkerson and she runs Barefoot-Executive.com . When you get to that page, Carrie will be there to welcome you.

I just watched her two movies: TheBossMovie.com and CruiseBarefoot.com

The first is powerful and evocative. It totally tells our story, women. Check that out.

Cruise Barefoot is about a contest Carrie is holding. Get in on that. Sounds like a total blast!

And yes, Carrie walked around most of jvAlert without her shoes on. She’s great, and I encourage you to check her out!

I got a comment from a new friend, Alex , who has an awesome blog at (http://www.howtospoter.com/). He’s the guy that Mike Paetzold (of http://mikepaetzold.com) twisted his arm to tell my my theme sucked. LOL. That was 3 on the suck side, so as you see, it went. Thanks very much for your input. I sometimes forget that it’s not about me.

What I mean by that isn’t that I’m all self-absorbed or anything like that (at least I hope not), but it’s not about what I like. When you’re communicating with an audience, you owe it to them to do what THEY like. So, forgive me if I inconvenienced you with my very hot blue ball theme. I understand that it was hard to read.

And what a cardinal sin, eh? I mean, if you want people to read your blog, you should make it easy for them. People don’t really love to read, so if you’re boring or if it’s too hard to read what you write, POOF! Audience dries up.

I know these things.

And yet, I stuck to my very hot blue ball. My daughter says that when I see cobalt glass (which I collect), it’s like a dog whistle. I go right to it. So, you see, it’s NOT something I can help. I have the “blue” gene. So, I was distracted. Argh!

But I changed things around here, just for you. I appreciate you.

And talk about cool appreciation stuff. I just got a card in snail mail from Carrie Wilkerson of TheBarefootExecutive.com, who I met at jvAlert. Very cool. Wish I was that on top of it. Snail mail! How cool is that? What a gal.

Relationships. Internet Marketers need those. And I want to have one with you.

Like the new theme? Let me know. If you hate it… It’s gone.
