SBI Webmasters
SEZ WHO?
TWIXT ME AND
THEE
 Everybody
asks me. And I always give the same answer.
Question:
What sites have you worked on?
Answer:
Well, quite a few. But, no, I can't tell you which ones.
Truly, I'm not being
evasive. Lots of SBI webmasters do have have lists of recommendations.
I don't.
Let's put it this way: You and I have worked together to
find a really cool niche, a bunch of strong keywords, a great approach.
Then I go and post it in this
website for everyone to see.
Just what would you think of me
then?
I have absolutely tremendous
respect for my clients. Over the course of time they become
friends. And I simply cannot list their sites here for all to see.
Their site concepts are confidential. Their keywords are
confidential.
And yours will be too.
I just don't talk about my
clients' sites. But ...
A LITTLE HELP
FROM MY FRIENDS
Pictures are
almost all from the
"Tortoise
Contest" in the SBI Fourms
(see credits below)
Torti are just wonderful
folk. I am very pleased that several of them have been kind enough to
say nice things about me in the Forums. This is pretty public
information, so I feel comfortable sharing some of it with you.
From Ken Evoy, our fearless leader:

See the post here
Mary Ann,
Sheer brilliance!
To anyone reading this post, please read the
first two posts at the top of this page. Mary Ann's reply is more
than just turning lemons into lemonade, and very creatively I must add
(which itself is a tremendous lesson)!
It's a post
about attitude. It is totally natural for Joanna to respond the way she
did. It's infuriating to see low-lifes copy your brainpower. Bit then...

... and
another kind comment from Ken:
MaryAnn,
Spot on answer at...
http://forums.sitesell.com/viewtopic.php?p=218435#218435
That's exactly what
I was getting at when I said the answer is under your nose to Thomas.
There are some other excellent answers here (ex., Gehri's info
complements nicely too).
But MaryAnn hit the bulls-eye. The point of the
exercise...
It can be
hard to see what is under your nose without a mirror.
All the best,
Ken

From torti of all sorts, newbie and
oldies:
Thanks for answering my question. I was literally stuck for days not
knowing what to do. This makes me much more confident.
Thanks again.

Thanks MaryAnn - some very appropriate words for me there!
Richard (from
Lincoln – no domain yet) |
Thanks a lot! Its a godsend just to know that it is possible. That way I'm
not just spinning my wheels!
I'll let you know
if I am successful at it!

You are a really good coach and I
appreciate you help.

Thanks for the help on deciding which
theme to pursue.
I like your idea.
Having this forum available is great. When you
try to talk to someone about what you are doing it becomes very
difficult to explain. Therefore especially difficult to get any good
feedback.
Tks again.

Thanks for the succinct explanation of what I am
doing with the key words. I am trying to get through days 2 and 3 and
this greatly helps me understand. I wish it was stated so clearly in the
guides I am stumbling through.

Julien,
Your hunch is right. You will be lucky to rank
well sometime in your lifetime with a Supply of hundreds of thousands or
millions FOR THAT KEYWORD.
But you don't need that keyword to have a
successful web site.
How are your T2 and T3 keywords? Is the Supply
low enough there so you can rank well? Can you find 50-100 strong "low
hanging fruit" to get your site started?
If so, you probably do have a strong concept. It
doesn't hurt to have a difficult primary keyword. At some point down the
road (actually several years, not several lifetimes), you will start
ranking. And when you do, the traffic generation will be substantial.
Best,
MaryAnn
Thanks,
that's some great advice

"If you're not failing from time
to time, you're just not trying hard enough."
Woody Allen, philosopher
When SBI webmasters gather, the talk often turns
to The Forums, the favorite spot of nearly everyone connected with SBI.
and for good reason: The Forums are just darn great.
The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely
tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything
you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and
the procedure, the process is its own reward.
Amelia Earhart,,
Aviator and explorer
When folks ask me how much I know, I say, "Not
nearly as much as I want to know." Some SBI Webmasters undoubtedly know
whole lots more than I do. I am here as your Coach because I take such
tremendous pride in watching your business grow.
"A man has to have
goals -- for a day, for a lifetime. And that was mine -- to have people
say, 'There goes Ted Williams, the greatest hitter who ever lived.' "
Ted
Williams, often considered the greatest hitter who ever lived.
One of the things that makes the Forums so great
is that you really can't tell the difference between the SBI webmasters and the
"others". I guess that means that we are all SBI Webmasters!
A lot of people
come to me and say, "I want to be an entrepreneur." And I
go, "Oh that's great, what's your idea?" And they say, "I
don't have one yet." And I say, "I think you should go get a job
as a busboy or something until you find something you're really
passionate about because it's a lot of work."

CEO of Apple Computer
