I’m Celebrating With A Giveaway!

Jul-28-2009 By Barbara Zak

I first started blogging in March of 2008.  I’ll admit I’m not very techie, but at that time I was determined that blogging was going to be my retirement career.  All I knew is I wanted to write. The rest I hoped would just take care of itself.  I had written some good posts, and gotten some favorable response, but nothing that knocked my socks off.  I knew there had to be a better way.

I fell in love with Forced Green, and longed for something that beautiful. There  was a widget on that site about Whole-Hog-Blogs.  I just had to know what that was.  I was amazed at what they had to offer, and for a reasonable price. They even offer help and training forever, or until you feel confident to do some of the behind the scene things on your own.  It was precisely what I needed so, I joined the Whole-Hog-Blogs network last July.  It has been among the BEST decisions I have made.

Theresa Cahill and Jeff Greer, employ the best ways to social media market your website or blog.  Unlike the old ways of cold calling, direct mail, or even randomly harassing people…all the proven things that don’t work.  I can assure you they have a system that WORKS!  Whole-hog-blogs couples online SEO marketing, with the proper amount of social marketing and networking, with a little ezine marketing thrown in.  It is a magical combination that pulls customers to you.  Everytime, I check my stats, I’m amazed at where I started and how far I’ve come in a year!  They helped me choose a theme, that totally is me and helps me express who I am to my audience.

Between the two of them, Theresa and Jeff have 10 plus years of experience online.  So, if you are struggling in these tough times, perhaps you need to take the plunge and rely on yourself.  This truly is the easiest, most effective way to market yourself, and your blog or business online.  Whole Hog Blogs –  The system that brings unstoppable traffic right to your door!  Give it a try …You’ll be glad you did!

To celebrate my blog-aversary, I am offering something, that I think we have all been waiting for.   Maximum Power, Minimum Impact-Eco-Respectful Batteries Now Available In Stores Everywhere!
