Having a personal domain name can be a great resource. Whether or not you have bought a domain that is your actual name, there are a lot of different reasons to do so. Even if you have a hard last name to spell (like mine or something like Guillebeau) you can use your personal domain name as a living, breathing business card or host your full-fledged blog and website on it.
Last weekend I was re-reading through The Thank You Economy by Gary Vaynerchuk and I realized that most bloggers start off with the wrong intentions. Most people focus in the beginning on how they can make their first dollar online. Oh, how wrong that is!
Like we talked about Tuesday, sometimes you just don't know what to write about. Well, there's one surefire way to still publish epic content on a regular basis without getting burnt out.
There are websites about nearly everything imaginable, but that doesn’t mean that they are all good! Here at Fizzle, we believe that anyone who puts in the right amount of focused effort can build an audience online, even if it is about an obscure topic.
I'm pretty sure that most of you have a strong opinion one way or the other on this topic. What do you think of pop-ups on websites or blogs that ask for your email address?
