Seth Godin just released a new book called Tribes. The book talks about leading tribes and who is doing it. I wanted to make a post about how Seth launched the book because it really shows why he is such a revered marketer and why all of his work reaches the highest levels. Now normally a book launch goes through some general steps. The author will probably work it into presentations he makes to promote it. They will announce it on their website or blog. They might form a group that is excited a… Continue

Pages are something that many blogger’s don’t take full advantage of, myself included. Here is a list of 8 pages I think many blogger's could find useful in driving and retaining more traffic to their blog.
1. About Page
This is a very simple yet useful page that every blog should have. A brief summary of what your blog is about and why it may be useful to a reader. Not every article you write will come to the table with a clear message of what your blog is all about so clearly defining it for… Continue
