However those that know me know I am generous and willing to give more.

Win a minimum of Four 1-1.5 hours Business Coaching sessions with me, by helping me win at Jack’s site. These can be once a week, once every two weeks or once a month you decide.
Coaching I know, blogging I do not, blogging I want to learn successfully, coaching I want to share for your success.
A quick word about coaching
Coaching works, Period! Coaching will take you and your business to new heights. Coaching will have one of the highest ROI’s for your efforts. Coaching is the process where you identify what area/s you are interested in having breakthroughs in and then being held accountable to cause the results you want. You cannot coach yourself, sorry, you can read every book on coaching and still not coach yourself. Coaching works from the outside in. People who have used a coach short term or long term have raved about the results they obtained. The one draw back, you will not be coached if you are un-coachable. You have to have a willing mindset.

8 Reasons Why Lists are Good for Getting Traffic to your Blog
Writing Content 80 comments
Here’s a tip for how to get people to link to your blog.
Write lists!
I’ve been reminded by this again today by seeing just how many people are linking up to Piaras Kelly’s list of Tips on writing content for your blog. I must have seen 10 or 15 people link to it in the last few hours (including me). Even though I don’t agree with all of it there is something about a list that bloggers and blog readers love. Here’s a list of reasons why lists can be good for your blog:
Lists are Scannable - online readers are notoriously lazy. A list helps communicate a number of points quickly and easily
Lists keep posts succinct - there is something about a list that keeps you from rambling
Lists look ‘neat’ - I don’t know about you but when I surf onto a site that is full of messily formatted text - I don’t tend to stick around long. Lists on the other hand can be quite visually pleasing
Lists are easy to link to - most of the links to the link above simply summarize the list (giving the keypoints) - bloggers seem to like linking up in this manner
Lists can be comprehensive - Piaras covered 12 points in the above list
Lists are persuasive - if you want to mount a case for something quickly presenting numerous arguments in a list can be quite convincing
Lists can add to the ease of writing - I like writing in lists because they break down my thoughts into bite sized pieces which is good not only for readers but me as a writer as I consider how to express myself
Lists as Memes - I’m not quite sure how to describe this - but lists can start epidemics of ideas. For the above reasons (and others - bloggers seem to love linking to lists and as a result they have the ability to spread quickly
There is obviously a pretty good case for using lists in your blog writing. Of course you can use them too much - sometimes a topic calls for something a little more meaty and in depth than a list - but overall I’d recommend that using lists on your blog as part of your writing mix is an worthwhile strategy.

I’m outgunned by everyone at FTR - I’m running out of places to put links already!
My best blogging tip?
Always write as though you were speaking to a single individual because you are… It doesn’t matter how many people are reading what you have to say they are doing it one person at a time and they want you to talk to them directly, not to a crowd of which they are merely a part…
Well, that’s one of my best-kept secrets blown! Oh well
Cheers and good luck! You deserve to win for using your ingenuity as much as anything else!
