Trackbacks increase blog traffic

Attention San Diego Realtors, are you using the trackback feature on your real estate blog?  I must admit I haven’t used this feature before.  I have been blogging for over a year now and never took the time to find out what the “trackback” feature in wordpress does.  I noticed the option everytime I wrote a post, but I guess I was so busy moving forward I didn’t take time to make sure I was making the most out of my efforts.  Hopefully you are smarter than I was; if not, I hope sharing this will help you.

Now that I realize I haven’t been blogging as smart as I could be I have been doing a great deal of research on the many ways to improve traffic to my blog.  Today I came across a really great blog with easy to follow instructions on ”How to use Trackbacks to Promote Your Blog“.  If you don’t know what trackbacks are, stop what you are doing right now and visit this blog:  http://www.5minutesformom.com/47/using-trackback/

Thank you Janice & Susan.  Your blog is great, keep up the good work

Choose Hope NOT Fear

The Presidential Inauguration of Barrack Obama marks a day in History; a moment in time for each of us to become the change we wish to see in our world.

Today is a new beginning for all who choose to accept it; a new beginning for our spirit and soul.. Watching the Inauguration speech was inspirational and electrifying for millions; no doubt leaving each of us motivated to take action like never before.  I have seen countless interviews on the televison today with young people saying that they now believe they can be anything they want…feeling like they now have a reason to do more with their lives.

Without a watchful eye, our lives can spin out of control in the blink of an eye.  Maybe this is exactly what happened to our economy, our personal finances, our relationships and our businesses….did we just take our eyes off everything that is important to us?  What the hell were we looking at?

What I have taken away from today’s events:  Be a Leader in your family, Be a Leader amongst your friends, Be a Leader in your personal life, Be a Leader in your company, Be a Leader in your sphere of influence, Be a Leader in your business life….. Be a Leader!
