I’m Taking a Break

back_soon Between holding down a part-time job, doing work for my kick-ass business blog consulting services clients, launching my How to Start a Business Website and Hire a Web Designer ebook, developing the Gateway Blogging learning program, and writing posts here every week…

I need a break!

You’ll still find me on Twitter and leaving comments at my favorite blogs. You can still get in touch with me.

But I’m not posting here until the beginning of September. I have to work on stuff for my clients and other projects.

In the Meantime…

You should read my new book: How to Start a Business Website and Hire a Web Designer. It’s chock full of all the stuff you wish you already knew. It does what it says on the tin, as they say. In gloriously plain English, a nice big font, and pretty tables & diagrams. It’s a seriously nice-looking book (most ebooks are kinda chintzy-looking, and I hate that, so mine are different).

Check it out.

    I hope your other projects all go well, Michael, and all the best with the sale of your new e-book.

    @David - Thank you! By not blogging for a few days, I’ve freed up some time to ensure that they will go well.

    Michael,

    Good for you. Rest well and come back full of your usual great ideas!

    Regards,

    Kelly

    @Kelly - No rest for the wicked, unfortunately, just prioritizing in favor of other things right now besides blogging. :)

    Have a good rest.

    One thing that might help your blog is adding dates to each entry. (For example - saying you’re taking a break without a date does not allow your readers to know when you’ll be back.)

    @Paul - Good point. The dates are visible when you view the single page version of each post at the bottom. The reason why I don’t post dates otherwise is because the content isn’t usually date-dependent. At least, I never saw it that way. Maybe it’s time to reconsider. Thanks for bringing up the idea. :)

    I just stumbled upon your blog. I have a small data entry business and have been promoting my website. I am going to check out your book for any help.

    Enjoy your catch up time - it’s important to be balanced!

    Enjoy your catch-up time, if that’s possible. :-)

    @Amy - Thank you for the well-wishes! :)

    Would you like a guest blogger or two in the interim? ;)

    Good to see a web page promoting an ebook without the color yellow. *LOL*

    Very well made.

    @Kelly - Looking forward to it (email sent).

    @Jenny - If yellow would help me sell more, I’d do it in heartbeat. But I’m trying to appeal to folks who are weary of anything that looks “scammy” so it’s a bit laid-back.
