Don’t throw in the “holiday towel”

The holidays are here in full force; life is already getting busier and more hectic. Unfortunately, the pace is only going to be picking up, and it won’t be letting up until sometime around January 7th…
It is really easy to get distracted and put your business aside during this time of year. If possible, stay focused and keep working. If you are really swamped, it’s okay to reduce the number of hours you normally work… we’re not trying to give you a heart attack.
If you put things aside now, you may lose momentum and not be in “full business force” again until February or March…. You know how hard it is to get back into the groove after a vacation! If you keep working now, you’ll have an easier time to pick things up after the New Year and hit the ground running.
So, for the sake of your business (and your pocketbook), try to keep working each week and continue making progress!

Where to buy: http://www.technorati.com
Description: If you have a blog, either work related or personal, and you want people to know it’s out there then Technorati is for you. Technorati indexes your blog so it can be easily found and used.
Review: Most of us have seen blogs and know what they are. Many of us have thought about setting up a blog but wonder how we can get it out there for the world to see. I know that has been my thoughts. My friends and family would know about it but how would anyone else know? Technorati can help you with that.
When you register with Technorati they will keep track of your blog. I was impressed by how they were able to let me know who was looking at my blog, what they were saying and how it affected my blog and business.
I was able to stay in touch with other weblogs. Some of the authors were very influential to my business. In fact I learned alot about blogs and how they can help me in my line of work.
Technorati will index your blog. Not only with they have the initial blog but also every time you add something new or update your blog they will see that it is indexed in the proper way to drive people to your blog easily.
Technorati ranks your blog. It does it by how many sites are linking to it. So the more popular your blog, the more people save it in their favorites, the better your ranking. They continually monitor your blog for these types of things. So when you tag your blog with Technorati it tells them and other people what your blog is all about. This will help drive traffic to your blog.
You can also use Technorati to find blogs that you want to read and comment on. By using tags (keywords) you can find blogs that are most linked to or most popular for the area you are wanting to checkout.
Technorati is easy to register with and has so many advantages that no one should be without it. I’m sure that if you try it you will find that your blog isn’t just left out there in the cold. It will be visited and used by many and you will be happy with the results.
