    Hey Jmo,

    Thanks for the question. I do have one question about resources though.

    Where did you get the template for your pop-over opt-in form? Or did you get it specially made for you?

    Thanks!

    http://SpamDisappears.com is a free site that encrypts email links on your web site so spammers can’t harvest them. Watch the video on the site if you don’t understand this. If you have email links on your site, you are just BEGGING to be spammed and this site prevents it.

    It’s a tool I actually had programmed for myself to make it super quick to generate email links.

    Enjoy!

    Hi J, Great idea to share some resources here. I think you have some of the best members who like to share their knowledge and info.

    I think I have a link that may help others. Being a big fan of personal development and a big fan of Anthony Robbins. I was disappointed when NBC canceled Tony’s new show, “BreakThrough”. It only lasted 2 episodes, but now you can see all of them right here at this link, http://www.hulu.com/breakthrough-with-tony-robbins

    The complete season (6 episodes) will be available through September 4, 2010.

    I hope you will enjoy them.

    I can not view them here in Canada, because the site will not anyone outside of the U.S. see them because of some streaming policy they have.

    I’m hoping maybe someone here can help me see them also through some link or may have some idea of how to help me view them also.

    Enjoy,
    G

      Can’t you use some type of United States proxy server?

      • Internet Marketing ABC 25 August 2010 at 9:23 pm Permalink

        I’ve used three different paid proxy services and several that are free – they can’t (or don’t want to) handle the bandwith for high quality video streaming. Even YouTube can be choppy through a proxy server.

    Very useful, thank you. I’ve been blogging on and off for almost 3 years, but have never had much of a heart – I lean to just write about whatever is on my mind when I feel like writing. Cheers!
