Ana Hoffman here, and I AM TIRED of all the blogs out there with NoFollow links (in case you don’t know what it is: most blogs, especially the big ones, add NoFollow code to all the outside links on their pages so that their page rank does not follow to your page if you add your link to their blog, for instance in comments).
So I created this page for my friends and visitors to have a place to promote yourself and their businesses and get some link juice to their websites.
- introduce yourself,
- tell us more about what you do,
- what drives you,
- whether you need/offer help with anything
- promote yourself, in other words.
Tell us what you’re passionate about!
Also, check out the “Join This Site” widget to the right. Feel free to learn more about our members.
Meeting new people and networking is a huge part of being an online business owner and this is a great place to do just that.
Don’t forget to check out my new Facebook Fan Page!
I would love for you to look around my blog and leave some comments on my posts. This is truly a win-win situation: you get links to your website, I improve search engine ranking on Google.
By the way, when you leave comments on my blog, I always reciprocate. Read what my view on that is on my YouTube channel.
Yes, this is a shameless way for me to promote this blog, but as long as everybody wins, i.e. my readers benefit from it, I am OK with that.
Here’s an idea on how you can get some exposure on Twitter: as soon as your comment is approved (I’ll do that as soon as possible), come back to this page, and click on “Tweet” button at the top.
All your followers (and mine if you add me @YourNetBizCafe) will read about your company – free advertising.
Here is another “bright idea” I had: I’d love to showcase some of your businesses.
I will choose them randomly and refresh the entries every couple of days. If you have a better idea of how to do this, let me know in the comments.
So, introducing:
The Cool Box
I had fun reading about everyone’s sites/businesses! I will visit as many as possible this week. My name is Suzanne Franco and I’m a blogger and online business owner. I blog about money making ideas (mostly online). I help others start and run successful online businesses and blogs. I was the Season 2 winner of the “Blogging Idol” competition and that was great fun.
http://www.suzannefranco.com I’ve also recently started on my journey to good health and taking off all of my extra body fat. If you’re interested in health, fitness, weight loss (or would like to get started) please join some like-minded people over on my newest bloghttp://www.bikiniafter40.com. As the domain suggests I’m on a quest to help as many women as possible look fabulous in their bikini (yes, guys, you’re welcome too LOL). I look forward to reading all of your great material here on the blog Ana … and thank you for a place for all of us to come together and network. *huGs* Suzanne
Hello, my name is Ross Murker: In the last 5 weeks I’ve shed 12 pounds and 2 inches off of my waist by simply replacing two meals a day with shakes that taste like cake! I’ve also save over $250 on my groceries in the same period. What I’m working on is introducing it to as many folks as possible, because I want the company to buy me a black BMW in addition to my earnings..
Refer your friends and let me know what you think.
Thanks,

I agree that it is better to give than to receive. In my Sendoutcards business, I try not to do any “cold calling”. Rather, I send one or two cards to an individual or business first, then call and try to meet with them somehow. Hopefully the gift of my card is a seed that will grow on fertile ground. If you enjoy sending printed greeting cards, then I think we have something very special for you
I am glad you made it to my blog, Lou - I admire your desire for business success!
Hi Ana,
I just started working as an intern at a company called Focus Forward. They allow people to take online surveys and get paid for it. No strings attached. If you would like you can sign up for to participate in focus groups as well which tend to pay a bit more. Also, you can even make some extra money by referring your friends to signing up and having them complete surveys. It’s really a great way to make a few extra dollars here and there.
Here’s the link:

Hi, Kelsey: I am glad it’s working for you. You are right though: “making a few extra dollars here and there” is what this survey business is all about, not creating a steady reliable income.
Thanks for the interesting read Ana.
While I am not an internet virgin, I am still a novice-
I have not yet embarked on an SEO strategy because I need to build a good solid website to bring together 2 that I currently have.
You see, I am a travel consultant, and have a booking engine at http://www.eztravelpad.com (which is my domain, but points to another site that I have no control over) and a blog at http://www.easytravelpad.com
I have some ideas on what to do, but would welcome input from anyone in the website building business.
My budget is modest now, but will hopefully grow in time.
In the meantime, please shop for your travel needs (if booking on internet) at http://www.eztravelpad.com - or contact me for no-fee consultations 14/7/365 (I do need my sleep)
Cheers!
Your blog looks great, Scott; just keep posting and driving traffic to it. And thanks for stopping by!
