Test Your Typing Speed

How fast do you “type” now? Test your typing speed online

When I was in high school, I took a typing class twice and dropped out both times. (Yikes I think I am aging myself !) I have wanted to be a writer since I was quite young, and I knew I needed to learn how to type.  I truly hated typing class and gave up on the idea I would ever be a fast typist. Life moved on, I went into the corporate world  and had my own secretary so I actually never did have to learn how to type fast. Than came the internet and computers.  I have been working on the computer daily since 1998.  When my kids watch me type they have often said, “Wow Mom you are fast”.  I still feel slow, so I just dismissed their remarks. Then I found this fun little site that […]

Did your web design company or person leave you hanging?

I often get new business from very frustrated website owners who have basically been abandoned by the person or company they hired to help then with their website. Sometimes their websites are half finished on a test site and the person seems to have mysteriously disappeared or stopped answering their phone.   Other larger companies who offer website design, farm out the work, and slap the site up, but give no help or direction to the poor website owner. Often the reason for this is they are not actually doing the work themselves. I recently had a client who came to me with that  very situation. Their website was up, but it had no keywords, tags, or any kind of the most basic SEO done. The client was more than willing to do it themselves, but the company insisted she […]

Letting WordPress Provide the Solution to Your Blog and Website Needs

Discoverability. It’s the most important word for an aspiring author to know and to master. The Internet is where everyone and everything gets found today. If someone searching for you, your book or subjects related to your book can’t find you on the Internet, you will remain obscure. Unknown. That’s not what any aspiring author wants. That’s not what a publisher wants in a writer. The fact that you can’t be found on line when someone searches for you, that you and your book aren’t discoverable, can feel pretty overwhelming, especially if you want to sell books to readers or to publishers. Yet, so many writers fail to develop an online presence. They don’t want to create a blog or a website, both of which provide them with a way to be easily found on the Internet. Why don’t they […]

BBB scam alert

Better Business Bureau Fake Email Complaint Scam

If you  have gotten any email like the one I posted below, it is FAKE.The thing is I am not sure what they are trying to do.When you are unsure of an email one thing you can always count on aremisspelled  words, and bad grammar such as in this case when they say the complaint is in respect to their dealership???? What the heck does that even mean? “with respect to their dealership with you.”   So I looked up the domain which is showing on the bogus link amazonandbeyond.com and it is listed below. No one answers that phone number of course.Also it looks like whoever bought it, added the privacy service. Here is the offical notice about the scam from the BBB, Better Business Bureau. If you know what exactly the scammers are trying to do please leave it […]
