For today’s YouTube Friday, I thought I’d post an informative video about SEO and link-building. I’ve explained before that SEO involves two phases: on-page optimization and off-page optimization.

I am currently setting up a new blog to launch hopefully next week. I bought the domain name, pointed the name servers to my host, downloaded the latest version of Wordpress, transferred the files to the host, and then . . . . I panicked.
I had no idea where to go from where. See, I am a [...]

But that doesn’t mean that I won’t provide you with any value. I was browsing some blogs the other day, and I [...]

Short post today (due to some pressing things here at work), but I wanted to make a very important point about entrepreneurship.
The point is a simple one: No one ever got rich alone.

Today, I wanted to provide a quick list of the three blogs I visit and read frequently.
I get a lot of ideas and inspiration from these blogs. The ideas are usually passive-income-related and aimed at building wealth without much work. The inspiration I get comes from reading posts by individuals with mindsets similar to my own [...]

My favorite Oscar Wilde quote is the following simple statement:
“Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination.”
It’s amazing that an Irish poet and novelist who died more than 100 years ago can offer such an important tidbit of business and entrepreneurial advice.
