If you hate the new Facebook chat sidebar just hide it

There have been a number of people making a huge fuss about the new Facebook chat that appears in your right hand sidebar (people are starting groups and pages called we hate the new chat put the old one back!) and if you hate it then it is easy enough to hide. I just found it very distracting but maybe with any change it is just a case of getting used to what’s new…. Anyway, this is how you can hide it.

All you do is go down to the right and click on the little icon which brings up the option to hide it and it disappears.

Then whenever you want to bring it back just click on CHAT and it reappears

It is that simple.

Am starting a blogging platform for local businesses

how to blog using influenceA few weeks ago my two year love affair with Blog Success came to an abrupt end and I found myself with so much free time even I couldn’t believe it! I caught a bit of day time TV and logged off at 6pm (that was a nice change) and generally allowed myself some space to enjoy the free time before deciding what to do next.

After 5 years of regular blogging I have decided to set up my own blogging platform. I have used a domain I bought last year when I first started thinking about being an influencer and what it took to provide value why earning residual income – so it only seemed right that I used that domain

http://influencer.biz

Influencer is a social blogging platform that is premium space only. It has been set up for all those business people I meet who have no web presence or they are on wordpress.com or blogger.com and are not generating any visitors/leads they can use for their business.

I have become really good at local SEO and will be driving traffic to each members website. As well as getting potential business coming to them they will also be able to

- set up and promote their own products
- set up and run a forum with their blog
- depending on their level of membership they will also be able to run a membership site or a business directory to build residual income

Full support is available to everyone inside the site so if they get stuck they can ask. I am really proud of this platform and will be including access to my local marketing toolkit as part of the membership. Anyone that has already bought the toolkit will get access so they can start their own blog.

Everyone gets access to premium WordPress themes and I am currently moving my clients over to the platform as well as my blogs. Plus I am putting up blogs and writing content so that I can eventually sell them to a business owner like this one

Influencer opens in the next few weeks or so – its been delayed because Microsoft Office 365 came along and I had to explore that too – and when it does it isn’t a site only for UK local businesses/professionals, any local business is welcome. Once you start writing content and we know who you are looking to target then we will begin the job of getting you found online.

My main focus now is to do plenty of traffic generation/ SEO on the whole site to get it up in the search engines, and I will spend a few weeks on that and then get ready to promote.  I hope you decide to join me in one of those three!

I am on Empire Avenue

{EAV_BLOG_VER:5ebc275998e395ba} – just veryifying my blog on Empire Avenue, for those of you on there you’ll understand. :)

It is the first time I have joined a social network and thought – WTF! Empire Avenue is all about virtually investing in people by buying and selling ‘Eaves’ – your share portfolio is all based on your social networks around the web and you can include your blogs too.

I haven’t had much time to ‘play’ with it – its 6.23am right now in London and here I am writing blog posts about it but I just can’t resist not being part of the social game.

If you want to join me you can click the link – it is free and we both earn some Eaves as a result – can’t remember how many, I think its around 2,000 or it might be more like 50,000 one or the other….. don’t quote me :)
