Network Marketing - Persistence to Success   by Deana Miller

In network marketing persistence is a must or you will not succeed. Will-power and desire, when properly combind make an irresistible pair. Sometimes, men of wealth are considered cold-blooded and ruthless because their strong will power has been misjudged as greed. When will power is paired up with persistence coupled with a person’s deepest desires, the person’s objectives are usually attained. Your organization will get through the down times.

A lack of persistence is very common in people. However, it is a weakness that can be overcome with effort. Depending on our desire, which must be to the point of obsession; persistence can be dramatically helped. Utmost desire must be in our minds. Everyday our self talk must be about our desired goals. They must be kindled with a passion of fire. We cannot let ourselves recognize failure, the very thought cannot occupy our conscious minds. We must learn by unfortunate failures, putting persistence back in operation, and never losing sight of our desired goals.

DO YOU WANT MONEY?

Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire. Next, determine what you will do in return for the fulfillment of your desire. Third, establish a date when you want the money and your desire to be fulfilled. Fourth, create a definite plan to carry out your desire. Fifth, write out your desire in a clear, concise statement, with all the details, the amount, the anticipated date of achievement, and what you will do in return for the money. Make a sign; put it on your bathroom mirror, on the office wall or on the refrigerator. Look at it every day. Read it out loud. If you keenly desire your goal to the point of obsession, you will have no difficulty in acquiring it. You must become “money conscious.”

A STATE OF MIND

Persistence is a state of mind. It can be cultivated. It can only be accomplished by the following plan. * Clarity of Purpose. Persist in what you want * Desire. Persist in your desire. * Self-Reliance. Beleiev in your ability to carry out your plan with persistence. * Definite Plans. Even though your plans may be weak, have definite ones. * Cooperation. Learn to be harmonious with others, it tends to develop persistence. * Will Power. Develop a habit of concentration, leading to persistence. * Habit. Persistence is the direct result of habit. You cannot be spasmodic about your desire. You must apply rule number six to get a fixed habit so that your mind becomes “money conscious.” Without persistence you will be defeated, even before you start. With persistence you will WIN! There is no substitute for persistence. No matter how many times you are defeated, with persistence you will reach the top of the ladder. Then, all your failures will be changed to VICTORIES in your network marketing organization!

Walter GavurnikEarlier in this blog we touched on using the phone. We should get a little deeper into that. One of the hardest things for many people is to talk to people they don’t know! Why? Simply because we have nothing in common with them, or so we assume. Now, the question would be, how do we know that if we never spoke to them before? Human nature is why we think that way. The fear of the unknown! There are other factors involved.

Henry Ford Inventor and Founder of Ford Motor Company, once said:

“One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his
great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid
he couldn’t do.”

  • Isn’t THAT what you started a business for? Something new? Finding out if you could do it? “You never know if you never try”, and a ton more cliches!
  • So how do I talk to people I don’t know? Well, you just said it! Talk! Be yourself and not someone you think you “NEED” to be.

Since the subject is talking, why don’t we just “talk” about it a little. When you go shopping for a car, boat, dining room table, you have to speak to a salesperson. A complete process has begun. You talk, bicker, negotiate, and either leave with a purchase, or without.

What happens during this process? The first thing depends upon the salesperson. They need to perform a physical on you, the prospective buyer. No, not a thermometer and stethoscope, more a psychological “profile”. You are asked seemingly mundane questons, and you freely reply since they are not personally threatening. What this does is give the salesperson an idea about you. Likes, dislikes, etc. Now they sort of know how to “SPEAK” to you. Notice the word “SPEAK”? We will cover that in a minute.

Okay, so now you went through this whole process with the salesperson. The next question is; did you purchase or not. Ask yourself why. Was it the product, or was it the presententation? We have ALL done this countless times. We may go to the next store and purchse the exact same product, only because the presentation was something we were more comfortable with.

The first thing you must do is REALLY get to know your product. Jerky Direct, for example, gives you all the information you need to answer mostly any question you may be asked. There will always be a question or two you don’t know the answer to. Make sure you write it down as soon as it is asked. You will want to refer back to the question before you finish the call with the promise of getting the answer.

Now that you know your product or promotion:

  • BE ENTHUSIASTIC and above all SMILE!
    The person on the other end will know if you are.
  • BELIEVE in what you are promoting!
    If you don’t believe in it, how will you convince someone else it is something for them?

Have you ever noticed how easy it was to talk to someone about something you were enthusiastic about and believed in? I’m sure you have! Confidence! Plain and simple. It could be anyone. Even, (EEK!) someone you have never met! This is because you know it, believe in it, and are enthusiastic about it. Understand what I mean?

Have you thought about the “whys and why nots” during past purchases? I hope so. It’s time to talk about talking! Above, I used the word “SPEAK“. Here is why. Anyone is able to talk to anyone. To “SPEAK” to them, you must know what they want to hear, or they will not hear anything! Makes sense, doesn’t it. You know since you have been through it. Seminars do not have guest “talkers”, they have guest “speakers”. You went to the seminar knowing what it was about. This is the topic the speaker will use throughout. Unfortunately, phone contact is a little different. Pre-qualified contacts at least know you are calling about what ever it may be. An opportunity perhaps. Now you need to speak to them and get them to listen to what you have to say.

So how do I speak to them? This is something you will have to figure out with experience. Personally, I hate to jump right into my “pitch!” My personal experience’s show that looking at the weather map of the person you are calling is a great ice breaker. You know the type of weather they are having when you call. If your call is answered, start by introducing yourself. It may go something like this:

Hello (Mr., Mrs., Ms. whomever),
My name is Walter Gavurnik. I received your request about a business opportunity. I noticed you are having some (type of: ie nasty, delightful, etc.) weather in (where). How (dealing, coping, enjoying, etc.) it? (This does 2 things, it has shown you were interested enough to check the weather and you care about them and not yourself. Never tell them about your weather unless asked!)

You have now engaged in some small talk. Get a feel for their mood. You will know pretty fast if you are going to get anywhere. Now, most experts will tell you that this is the wrong way to go about it. It’s poor time management, etc. HUMPPPH I say! You have taken calls from sales people. How do you react if they jump right into a sales pitch? Would CLICK be a good word? I know it is for me. So why not learn a little about the contact? All you are doing is finding out a tidbit or two so you are able to SPEAK (that word again) to them! Five minutes of your time can mean the difference between a CLICK and a sign up!

Walter GavurnikWelcome back! Let’s move on to long-term goals. By now, you should be comfortable with setting short-term and mid-term goals. Now we will get into long-term goals. What are long-term goals? Boy am I glad you asked!

Long-term goals are; “the final frontier”, “the top wrung of the ladder”, “your destination”, “where you end”, “the finish line”. WRONG!!  Long-term goals are only, and let me repeat that, are ONLY a place to get to! Once you have acheived your long-term goal, it is time to create new goals. In my example of taking a trip, your long-term goal was to arrive at the destination. That means you are done once you get there, right! You accomplished your long-term goal, right! If you said yes, I guess you don’t want to get back home, do you.

Still reading? Good! You have now arrived at your destination. The next thing is to create new goals to get back home. You go through the same process as when you began your journey. Complete each in order until you are home. That was pretty simple wasn’t it? This just shows how easy it is to obtain your goals. It’s time to dig a little deeper into goals and goal setting.

Short-term goals are the easiest to accomplish. What you are doing is proving to yourself that you are moving in a forward direction. With each check mark in you short-term goals, you have advanced toward your mid-term goal(s). Likewise, with each check in your mid-term goals, you have advance toward your long-term goal(s).

Okay, it’s time to hold your nose, close your eyes, and dive in! Long-term goals are no different than short and mid term goals. The only thing that changes is time to accomplish them! Don’t be mistaken. You will NEVER reach your long-term goal(s) without going through the whole process. There are no short-cuts! What you need to do is, “Practice!”

Aha you say! How do I practice? Very simply, use household chores you have been wanting to do. Make them “Goals”. Start with your short-term goal and go from there.
Here is an example of how I began practicing goals:

  • Short-term goal: Insulate my daughters bedroom this year (2002)
  • Short-term goal: Add electical outlets during same period
  • Short-term goal: Purchase required products before September 1st
  • Mid-term goal: Tear down walls to facilitate installation by end of 1st week of September
  • Mid-term goal: Add all wiring and service boxes by end of 2nd week of September
  • Mid-term goal: Install insulation and sheetrock by end of 3rd week of September
  • Long-term goal: Complete construction before end of 2002

By using this plan, I not only completed the room by “October”, but was also able to create another goal to accomplish. Without setting these goals, I would most likely still be working on the project! It is now 2006 and I can tell you, if I had not set goals and commited to them, my daughters room would still be a skeleton.

This brings us to BHAG! Your Big Hairy Audacious Goal! What is it and why do I need one? Because, because you want to succeed in life, because there are higher steps to reach, because you need the ultimate platform to stand upon, because you are you and you know that where you are at is not where you could or should be!

“Anyone who stops learning is old, whether 20 or 80. Anyone who keeps learning is young.” - Henry Ford, Founder - Ford Motor Company

You have set all of your goals and acheived everyone of them. Don’t be “old”. Set new goals. Keep moving forward. This is the importance of your BHAG. Did you remember to create your BHAG? When The United States created its BHAG to reach the moon in the 60’s, and acheived it, we did not stop there. New BHAG’s where created. Building a space station, going to Mars, sending probes to the outer planets to study them. All have been obtained! Your BHAG is just a stepping stone to your next BHAG.

  • Create your short-term goals. Revise them if necessary to acheive them.
  • Create your mid-term goals. Make them more difficult to obtain than short-term goals.
  • Set long-term goals. These could me 3, 5, or more years to complete. It’s your goal so only you know what a reasonable amount of time to obtain it would be.
  • BHAG, do you have one? If not, create one. This is your dream or vision of what you  ultimately want acheive.
  • Right everything down. Put it where you will always see it as a reminder.
  • Commit, commit, commit! This cannot be sressed enough! You MUST commit to your goals in order to make them work!
  • Keep track. Mark down date and time you acheive each goal. This will tell you whether you are making your goals too hard or easy to acheive. Adjust your new goals accordingly.

That about wraps it up for goal setting. Remember, as long as you use the SMART rules of goal setting, and commit to them, you will succeed in all that you do!

Best of everything to you!

Walter GavurnikOkay everyone, let’s continue with goal setting. To review, short-term goals are easy goals; goals which require little or no planning to acheive. Your best short-term goals would be weekly, daily, or even hourly. We will review this again at the end of this article.

What are mid-term goals then? Well they could be viewed as taking a long trip in your car. Your short-term goal is to get out of the state. :D A mid-term goal would be to drive for 9 - 10 hours without stopping. This is where you will take your first break. Depending on the length of your trip (or long-term goal) you may do this again. Your long-term goal would be your final destination. This is a very condensed version of goal setting, but you are able to visualize each step (goal) and how they work together.

Why don’t we apply this to your Jerky Direct business. We will start with setting some goals. Not wanting to spoil my next article, this will only be short and mid term goals. To begin we need to set some short-term goals. You may use these examples although I highly suggest you create your own. Remember, you are committed to acheiving these goals.

  • Some Short-term goals
    1. I will make 30 phone calls this week to prospects
      (This is 5 per day and I get Sunday to do other things)
    2. Of these 30 calls I will have 1 enrollee
    3. I will give my local (any orginization) information
      for my fundraisers
  • Some Mid-term goals
    1. I will have 6 new enrollees this month
    2. I will have 1 fund raiser scheduled this month

As you can see by the above example, your first mid-term goal is more than your short-term goal. That is to say, if you enroll 1 per week that is only 4 enrollees. By making your mid-term goal 6 enrollees your are giving yourself more to strive for. It’s the same with the fundraisers. Handing out information does nothing until you make sure at least 1 schedules a fundraiser with you. If all of your short-term goals gave you your mid-term goals, there would be no sense in having short-term goals. 

Let’s break down your trip a little more and say that your short-term goal was to get in the car. (We all know how tough that can sometimes be, especially with children!) Your mid-term goal is now to get out of the state. Without getting in your car (ST Goal) there is no way you acheive your MT Goal. It is imperative that each set of goals takes you to a new level. I can’t think of anything more frustrating than doing a whole bunch of things to end up in the same place.

Someone once said, I think it was Jay Hebdon, the very deffinition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Actually Jay was only quoting. You get the idea. With each step (goal acheived) you MUST advance. Static is as static does….Nothing.

In review, your short-term goals are easy goals. Things you are able to come up with off the top of your head and accomplish without too much difficulty. Your time frame is up to you depending on what your goal is and how long you can reasonably accomplish it. Mid-term goals are the next step. These are a little harder to accomplish and take more time. Typically they will be anywhere from 1 month to 3 years depending. Set them and commit to acheiving them. This is the only way to avoid the insanity factor spoken about above.

That’s it for today, I will continue this in the next few days with information on your long-term goals.
Until then,

Walter GavurnikI was born in a “Budding Metropolis” (Still Budding) called Gladstone, New Jersey in 1957. This was a Wonderful town with Great People! As I grew up, I had the need for wander. So, in the late “70’s, I made the BIG move. I moved about 7 miles from home! Bernardsville, New Jersey. My new place of residence. Bernardsville just happens to be where I went to High School. Yup, I knew the town well.

Loving the surroundings I grew up with as well as the security of being around home, I NEVER traveled to anywhere I did not know! With that said, here is what I am asking, please post ALL of your experiences here. Where you live, how you live, all that stuff.

Okay, I would like you to post how you live where you live. What makes it different than say, another state. We have distributors outside this country, what is life like there. This is all I am asking. I want to TRAVEL through the thoughts of people here.

OK, I am done babbling!

Walter GavurnikIn my last article, I spoke about short, mid, and long term goals. In this article I will cover this a little more. Your short-term goals are those you want to achieve NOW! What this means is, “My goal for this week is to make 10 phone calls.” That is a GREAT short term goal! At the end of the week, you are able to track your goal. You KNOW if you achieved it or not. SMART! (Remember the rules for SMART.) Here is what you do:

  • Write down your short-term goals.
    These can be anything you want to accomplish, today, tomorrow, this week, or whatever! Commit to them! Your short-term goals include things like:          

    • Pass out 50 business cards per day!
    • Make 10 phone calls per day!
    • Mail 20 post cards per day!
    • Post 100 fliers this week!
    • Send 1000 emails this month!

     

  • Put a copy of these goals where you will always see them.
    This is a commitment to yourself. You want to constantly be reminded of what you want to do. Achieve your “Short-term Goals!”     

    • Put them over your computer.
    • Fold a copy for your wallet or purse.
    • Add a post-it to the dashboard of your car.
    • Hang a copy on your refrigerator.
    • Put them everywhere you will be reminded.

Please remember, lack of achievement is NOT failure! You may have set your goals too high for short-term. Adjust them. You may have had some unexpected things prevent you from achieving your goals. TRY AGAIN! Above all, DO NOT QUIT! Your short-term goals are your stepping stones to your BHAG! Without them, you will never get to the moon.

You have heard all of the cliches’. I will not repeat them. Here is what I will say, “If you never begin, you will never find the end!” Your short-term goals are where you begin. Your BHAG is where you finish, not end. Now you create another BHAG and begin anew!

“The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” Your short-term goals are your first step! My next article will be about mid-term goals, what they are and acheiving them!

Walter GavurnikHello again. Just wanted to let you know that I have made a major overhaul to the Jerky Direct blog. I sincerely hope you like the change in looks. The content bars on the right will have much more as time passes. In the next couple of days I will be continuing my article about goals. Included will be more about setting, maintaining, tracking, and evaluating. If followed on a daily basis, you will find out how simple it can be to achieve every goal you set.

Thanks again for visiting and be sure to stop back in a couple days. You will not want to miss my continued article on goals. You may also get the feed using your favorite aggragator. The rss, atom or rdf feeds are all listed on the right.

Walter GavurnikNeed, Want, Desire
We all have things we need, a place to live, a new car, and money. We all have things we want, a nice vacation, a big screen TV, and more money. The problem we face is that sometimes we have to settle for less. The house is too small, or we can only afford a used car. That vacation turns out to be a day trip here or there. We were able to upgrade the TV to a 25″. The money? Well that just never seems to be there.

You may look at these 3 words and wonder, “Why is he using these words?”
Let me explain. Need comes before want. We all do everything we can in order to fill our needs. There are certain things we want but unless we have filled our needs we cannot have them. We put aside a few dollars here and a few dollars there in order to obtain those things we want. Unfortunately when we have enough another need arises. Furnace breaks down, the septic over flows. You get the picture.

Now you may ask, “What about desire?”
On November 29, 1992, Dennis Byrd of The NY Jets, had a collision with teammate
Scott Mersereau during a game against Kansas City. The collision was devastating
leaving Dennis a quadriplegic. Dennis did not need to walk in order to live. He obviously
wanted to walk again, but that was just not enough to make him walk!

This brings us to DESIRE!
Desire is the one thing that will allow you to achieve anything! Dennis had a true DESIRE to walk again which pushed him to do the things he had to do so he was able to fulfill that DESIRE. Dennis was walking with crutches 10 weeks later! Christopher Reeve, Lance Armstrong, and many more, are people who had a true DESIRE to achieve something.

DESIRE gives you the drive to give 100% toward your goals.
There is no 110% unless there is a new math I have not yet heard about. You give your all and that is all you can do!

What is DESIRE? It starts with a dream. Without a dream you have no foundation. Now you take that dream and plan a way to make it become reality. Use that plan to the point of obsession and you now have a true DESIRE!

Set and achieve your goals.

When setting your goals, write them down. Do not type them into a computer. There
is a psychological aspect to writing them. Not being qualified I will not get into this.

Your goals should be short-term, mid-term, and long-term. This would be the same as
need, want, desire.

  • Short-term goal = Need
  • Mid-term goal = Want
  • Long-term goal = Desire

With each need or short-term goal you complete you are 1 step closer to your desire or
long-term goal.

Always remember when setting your goals to make them achievable and realistic.
All of your goals must use the SMART format. SMART is an acronym for:
Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Timed. Let’s have a look at each.

  • Specific – Your goals must be as specific as you can make them.
    For example, a goal to “Have a more successful Jerky Direct business” is too ambiguous. A better goal would be, “Increase my Jerky Direct business by 100 enrollees.” Now you are specific about your goal.
  • Measurable - “Increase my Jerky Direct business by 100 enrollees. This is also a measurable goal since you have added 100 enrollees to your goal. You are able to measure this goal and see if you have added 100 enrollees.
  • Attainable – There is no sense in having a goal, which is impossible to achieve. If your goals are unrealistic or unachievable, you may as well stick with your regular job. Why would you continue to work toward a goal you can never reach?
  • Relevant – This is where “Realistic” comes in. Let’s say you just started your Jerky Direct business January 1, 2006. You have never had a business nor do you have much knowledge using a computer for marketing. Setting a goal of, ”Adding 25 enrollees by January 31st.” would be an unrealistic goal due to lack of experience. While it is an attainable goal, it would be unrealistic at this point in your learning experience. In 4-6 months, this would be a more realistic goal.
  • Timed – Your goals must have a fixed duration. Using the example, “Increase my Jerky Direct business by 100 enrollees” is not a timed goal. Better would be, “Increase my Jerky Direct business by 100 enrollees in 2006.” This gives you a fixed point this goal ends.

Now we will take a look at the last example to see if it meets all of the SMART criteria.
“Increase my Jerky Direct business by 100 enrollees in 2006.”

SPECIFIC - you know how many enrollees you want to have.
MEASURABLE - you have stated that you want 100 enrollees in 2006 for this goal to be successful.
ATTAINABLE - by being in control of what you do to meet this goal.
RELEVANT - you have allowed yourself a realistic amount of time to complete.
TIMED - by having an end point to complete this goal.

You are able to formulate your goals in a clear easy to follow way. Your next step is to
define your “True Desire.” We will call this BHAG (pronounced Bee-Hag) or
Big Hairy Audacious Goal. Your BHAG is your ultimate end goal. This goal should be
beyond your long-term goal. It should be the ULTIMATE place you want to get to.
Example, in the 1960’s the United States had a BHAG to reach the moon by the end of
the decade. This is the type of BHAG you should set for yourself. Why a BHAG you may
ask? Momentum is the reason. For every one of your goals you achieve, you have made a giant step toward your BHAG.
The closer you get to your BHAG, the more you will strive to attain it.

That’s it for now. I know it was a little long, but I hope you floundered through it.

Walter Gavurnik Initially this was going to be a continuation of my previous article. A phone call changed that. Upon entering my office on Saturday December 10, I was greeted by a message on my answering machine. My excitement grew when the caller asked for a return call about my jerky business. Thoughts of a possible new member made me a little giddy. Taking a deep breath, I calmly returned the call. Immediately after introductions, the wind was gone from the sails. This caller was a Jerky Direct distributor from California. We began to chat about Jerky Direct. Let me tell you, this little chat lasted 68 minutes and 56 seconds. The caller was Keith Wellington and had just returned from the meeting in Idaho Falls. I can tell you his enthusiasm refilled the sails. FAST!! Man, this would have been a great call to record. Following is my attempt to convey the message(s) contained in this call.

During the onset of this call, we discussed email strategy. What worked and what did not. We both happen to use a couple of the same safe lists, which is how he received my ad and phone number. As it turns out my results have been a little better from one the lists. Keith has gotten ZERO response while I have gotten some return contact. This is where Keith’s energy and passion emerge completely. The following is paraphrased:

K - “Walt, did you get any phone numbers?”
W – “No, I did not.”
K – “Do you expect to get any.”
W – “No, I doubt it. No-one seems to want to give it.”
K – “That is not what I want Walt. You HAVE to have phone numbers.”
K – “You NEED to call people. Automation to some extent is okay.”
K – “To make the business work, you must call people and talk to them!”

Words cannot explain how passionate Keith is about this. Undeniable fact! Keith went on to tell me about someone who told him, “Ask what the person wants, and then show him or her how to get it!” How much more simplistic could it be? Ask…Show. This is something we all need to do if we expect to get the most out of this business. This applies to new distributors as well as the seasoned veteran. Personal contact is the one thing that MUST be done.

Keith also provided another important step to better your business and to continuously make it better. That went something like this:
Someone tells you there is a golden nugget at the shore. So you run to the shore but find no gold. What happened? The next person comes along and you watch as he wades into the water with a shovel and begins to dig. Slowly and methodically he moves the mud from the bottom. After about 25 – 30 shovels he brings a beautiful gold nugget. You say to yourself, ”How did he do that?” That answer is obvious; he did the work to get it.

This brings me to another point Keith instilled upon me. TRACKING! As with any campaign, you must track. Using phone leads it is vital. You want to know how many calls it takes you to get someone to sign up. With verified phone leads it will usually be about 1 in 30. This of course depends on your presentation. The person at the shore digging counted how many shovels it took to find that nugget. He is now reasonably sure that he will find another within the same amount.

Another point Keith was adamant about; do not worry about making mistakes. When making phone contact, be yourself, be relaxed, and above all, don’t sound like you have been rehearsing for days. Keith suggests memorizing the phone script you are going to use and write down all the highlights. Now throw the script away. Make your calls with your notes in front of you in order to cover them all. Be calm and natural while you speak. Mistakes will happen but most likely will not cost you.

Well, that is about all I am able to remember for now. I will post more as it comes to me. Keith has been invited to this blog and I sincerely hope he adds some comments.

One more thing I am able to tell you about Keith. He has a wonderful phone presence. Phone contact is his business. He knows what he is talking about.

Until next time,

Walter GavurnikIt looks like I am falling behind already! With all that has been happening, all of my time has been used in more useful areas. I will do my best to keep up with this blog in order to help all of you better your search engine rankings.Here is a little update of all that has occurred. As you know the original forum has been closed. A new forum has begun to attempt to take its place. This forum is able to be accessed by clicking on jd forum in the right hand column, or by clicking here. To help preserve the integrity of the forum when you register, it is set up in such a way that I will need to activate your account. The reason is to prevent forum spammers. What’s that? You never heard of forum spamming? Here is what happens:
Users either do manual searches for forums and blogs, or use software designed to do the same. When any forum or blog is found, the user attempts to register. During registration the user adds their own url’s for the purpose of free advertising. If they happen to catch one with a high ranking, the search engines pick up their web address and that helps to increase their ranking. (Much as I have created this blog and the forum to do)

This is a fairly new phenomenon. Users have begun to find out how the new search engine rankings are done.
Many others are developing and selling software to accomplish this task in a relatively short time. There are a couple of things I have encountered.

  1. On 3 separate forums, including the JD Forum I created, I have had to delete up to 15 spammers on EACH per DAY!
  2. In the short time since this blog was created, there have been 10 deletions for blog spamming.

Now you are able to see why these “USERS” want to post anywhere they are able!This blog is a simple example. As has been stated to all the members, it has been getting more and more hits!
If you do a Google with jdblog as the search, we are on the second page! This has been done without search engine submission. None! Not even the jdserver.com website! I have not even added keywords!
How? That will be in my next article. Until then, those of you that have read my earlier forum posts, KNOW!
