WA support rocks!

I really don't know what else WA can do to impress me....but they just keep doing it!Firstly a massive big THANKS, CHEERS and bucket loads of APPRECIATION to the WA support team.WHY?A wee way back, for personal reasons, I had to relinquish my premium status with WA (nothing to do with WA. It was external situations). In doing so I lost the hosting for my site and all the content on that site...or so I thought (read on). I had plenty of warning from Kyle and the WA team this would happen so the

Celebrate freedom and be grateful.ANZAC

Today (25 April) here in the great 'Down Under' both New Zealand and Australia commemorate the service of men and woman who have so bravely laid, and still do lay their lives on the line in the name of freedom. Many of these brave souls never returned to their families and many who do endure years of pain and mental torment as a result of the horrors they endured. It is a day of remembrance and in my book is the most important day in the calendar.The term ANZAC comes from the Australian and New

Seeming somewhat stationary sourcing solid statistics?

If you are in need of some good sound statistics, whether it be the population growth of Greenland or the worlds biggest cookie munchers then I can point you in the right direction. I receive, almost on a daily basis, a bunch of FREE stats covering all manner of topics. This crowd may or may not have the stats you require but they are definitely a good start point for in depth research. Below is the site. It's not a link so just tap it in if you want to have a look at them.statista.comBTW I am

Jaaxy telling me to never say never!

Playing around....I mean searching for a bunch of key words/phrases on Jaaxy the other day for my WA site and I thought I'd Just try a little something different.6 years ago I closed my business I'd had for 15 years. It was my 2nd business in that particular field, although slightly different niches of it.I closed it for no other reason other than I was over it. "Never again" I said....I'm done. I was very good at what I did. I had over 10,000 very satisfied clients. I even won a national award

Time to be thankful

OK team. Today I turned 46. Normally I let the birthdays slide on by and try not to register that another year has passed me by. This year however is somewhat different. It has been a year of change and it started 52 weeks ago.Last year of course was my 45th and for those of you who have not reached that, it can be significant. It can be a time to reflect and a time to mourn those you have lost along the way that didn't make it that far.I decided to make some changes to improve my situation, bo

OK team I need some feedback from you awesome bunch.

I'm about to start another site as I discovered I have a few spare hours a day I'm only using for sleep and I reckon I can minimize that. Anyway it's in the outdoor/camping field and I'm totally pumped about this one and wouldn't mind some feedback on a few names I have in mind. I'll only put a few from my shortlist here as I've come up with over 30. Some I like and some are a bit questionable. All have been searched and are available. They are not in order of preference as I don't want to infl

Consistently amazed!.just sayin.

I've only been a WA member for a short time and have been quietly going about my business in the background....building ideas, planning, content creation, traning and so forth when I decided to take another look at the tools and training available to me (and every member for that matter) and truly realised the depth and extent of what WA really is - and there really is only one word for it....exceptional !! I always knew there was something special here but it was a matter of conciously remindin

Beating the odds - a miracle or the result of positive action?

What I am about to share is very personal to me but as it was 4 years ago yesterday a little miracle happened I feel I need to share.December 2010 I was living in the Philippines with my fiance who was 5 weeks pregnant with our first and only child.My fiance became very ill and got worse by the day - to the point she ended up in hospital with suspected denge fever. Her situation got worse by the hour and her fever was going through the roof. It wasn't looking good.Now this particular hospital, l
