Sorry I've been away so long!

[zhuuraan]

Hi guys! Sorry I have been away so long, but things have been kinda hectic with moving a couple months ago, and then staying with a family member til my fiance and I found our own place, and then moving there. Then there's unpacking, selling things I no longer am using, and all sorts, as well as setting up my printer so I can print flyers and things like that. It's all been really hectic and I haven't even had time to work on my site, meaning that I am not even making any progress yet.

Anyway though, I am sort of back, though in the process of being about to set up a new desktop computer and getting rid of my old motherboard and case since I have a new one now, so for a few days I may not be super active but am here. I am actually working on new keywords for my site as I am going to work on completely revamping it to be entirely different from how it started. The homepage will be virtually unrecognizeable!

Anyway though, just wanted to post a message saying I'm still around, and I hope to start making some money once my site is revamped. You'll all notice, especially those who know me, when my site is up because the anchor text of the link in my signature will change.

Anyway, boo, and welcome to all the newbies I haven't yet had the pleasure of meeting.

Oh right, and once I get the other desktop up and running, I will begin making posts on my blog again too, which will be nice.

And, though I doubt it really matters, my personal site's down but will be back up soon, with a bit more content and new things being added there too. Not as nice as the business site, but still fun!

Nice to have you back....

Hey, Amanda.

I wondered where you suddenly disappeared to and was sorry we lost such a prolific poster.

Glad you are back and sounding way enthused again.

Hi Jeff, thanks for the message. It's nice to feel welcomed back, rather than forgotten lol. It's good to be back and I hope I can do some good things.

Hey Pat!

Yeah, I did kinda fall off the face of the earth there for a while, lmao. But, I should be able to get back to some posting as well as fixing up my site, and reselecting my keywords so that hopefully I can get more traffic to my site and bring in a little cash. I bet my Traffic Swarm account is extremely negative credits for inactivity, but I'll pump that up, and hopefully get some people joining under me and helping me bring them in.

I did have a few people join PIPS under me in my absence, and took the time to write to them telling them about the forum and to contact me if they needed anything, but it would seem they just went idle almost immediately.

If I had the money to spare, I'd consider buying leads from someone or doing a co-op, but I'm strapped til I can get traffic and stuff coming in, so I'll squeak through. If there's one thing I don't lack, it's determination!

I will be active again, though perhaps not as active once college starts. I'm trying to finish my associates and get my bachelor's in elementary education. Even if I make enough with PIPS to not need to work, I'd do it cuz I want to and cuz I love kids!

Anyway, rambling again. Man I am notorious for that!

Welcome back to the forum Amanda and look forward to more of your posts.

Cheers for now

Hi, Amanda:

Welcome back! Of course, consistency with a business is best in the long run, but one of the benefits of a home based Internet business is the ability to take time off for various reasons, such as yours. Once you are fully back in the swing of things, I am sure your business will begin to fly. You have the desire and seem to have the right attitude about it, so there is no reason why you can't succeed big time. Best of success to you!

Thanks! Yeah, I know I should've kept up with the momentum, but there really was no way around it. I've been doing a few things in the background when I have time though, so even though the site is unchanged and I haven't built backlinks too much, I've been working some.

Actually, the lack of backlinks is kind of good, as I am changing my target keywords, and so the anchor text of my backlinks will need to change. Since I have very few up currently, I can change the existing ones like my signature and stuff and then create the anchor text I want for the new ones.

I also just got a link to a place where I can create lots of backlinks for free, so I can use that, and I was thinking of using another thing to get them, but I will have to get the trial of it first to see if I really like it and it is worth the money.

welcome back!

I was gone for 3 years so your absence seems like a walk in the park :P

Hi Amanda,

Welcome back. We are still here which tells you something about PIPS and Internet marketing in general. It gets in your blood. Good luck to you.
