Welcome to Excitement

Well 2008 has started out as an exciting year. I feel perhaps that it is because I have written some strong goals that include lots of networking. Hey isn't that a great pastime. Meeting new people and interacting with them and their businesses. Managed to get a couple of good clients out of it too. That's the way to generate excitement.

Coming back to goals I have moved on the first three and within the week the first will be complete. I will have a new website - all clean and tidy and working well. What was wrong with the last one? Well nothing from the face of it but -- I had a shopping cart behind it that was only partly installed and then when that designer moved on the following one said he could handle it but - he couldnt access the previous cart so he installed another one and many pages that didn't quite work. Well they worked well enough to fool me for a while but I susses something was wrong as the sales did not come in as expected. I kept changing the text thinking that the landing pages were the problem.

Then I started getting spammers putting porn sites on my customer comments areas. I spent hours trying to get them off but it was so time consuming.

Then the universe looked kindly on me and I was contacted by a lovely lady in Brisbane who is an X-Cart specialist. She took my hand and led me through the maze and now I have a shiny new website that works a wonder. It seems that the first shopping cart was pulling against the second and causing a great corruption problem.

Anyway the main thing is that I have achieved goal number one for the year and have a new website that WORKS and to celebrate I completed goal number two and upgraded to a widescreen vdu.

Now for goal three - its on its way so more on that later.

Wishing you success
