Hi Again,

My name is Gracie McCray. I am a homemaker and have been tinkering online for about 4-5 years. Making everything fit and having a plan that works is my main problem.

I would love to learn how to build mini niche sites on natural skincare products and how to live a healthy lifestyle. I recently had one site built. I am not sure if I can place the link here. So I will not.
There are a few changes that I plan to make on this site.
• Rewrite my “About Us” page and make it more me as suggested by David Perdew.
• Replace my header.
• Find someone to proofread my contents before publishing to the Web.
• Learn how to setup Facebook and Twitter for this blog.
• Listen to live training replay for monetization techniques for my site as suggested by David Perdew.
.
I am reviewing Wordpress videos at MyNAMS Member’s Library.

I am open to any suggestions and looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Gracie,

It's OK to post a link to your site so we can answer specific questions.

Gracie,
You might want to change your optin form a bit. These days you need to give a good reason why people should give you their email address. The title of that top post is the kind of benefit to highlight. So if I give you my email, what's in it for me? Also you might want to have just two fields: NAME and EMAIL. Then change the button from Submit to a call to action for the benefit like "Send Me the Tips". If the giveaway is an ebook, having an image of the cover might work well.

I use "might" because you just have to test the various components of the form (headline, image, button text, colors, etc) to see which one converts better.

Christine,

Thanks for the suggestions, I will make these changes before promoting this site.

[David_Perdew]

Gracie - one correction here - and it took me a long time to learn this - make these changes WHILE promoting your site. You'll always have something to fix, so just accept that and keep promoting - that's job #1.
