Hello to all!

You may (or may not)  be aware of the new SEO and IM forum I’ve been whispering about on the WF forum thread, and also made mention of in an earlier post on this blog – a few days back. Well, its not far off launch now!

Its already built – I outsourced the work on Elance (I have no idea about vBulletin forum construction) and bought the licence. I advertised the job only some 5 days or so ago and already we are just about ready for launch, which has caught me somewhat unawares, for sure! I wanted to tie in the new eBook with the lauch of the SEO forum, but the eBook will not be available for about a further 10 to 12 days.

The eBook will be up for sale on the forum and on the blog here too – its gonna be very affordable, I just need to cover my outlay and perhaps make a little profit at the same time. More about that nearer the time!

So, please keep an eye out for details of when the forum is ready and the doors are open. Initally its not going to be too bulky – there is gonna be a lot of work over the next couple of weeks in really bulking it out – transferring a number of the posts from the blog here, for example, and categorizing them. This is particularly helpful for anyone who is new to the WF thread and new to the whole Challenge, but its also going to be good for reference materials for pretty much everyone.

I’m going to have a few product offers on there too – these will be clearly advertised – as I have done on the blog here (it will be much clearer on the forum). I’m going to make available a number of really good SEO and IM tools which can be purchased through MY links. Why purchase through my links?

Firstly, I will have a cool bonus for you if you go ahead and purchase through my link. These I need to work on over the next few weeks.

Secondly, how about a nice cash-back lump sum?

Hmmm… got you thinking, right?

Furthermore, I shall regularly be on hand to help out when the need arises. Obviously I am unable to be glued to the forum all the time, and thus I am limited as to the amount of input I can have. But I’ll be around on a regular basis all the same, making comments here and there when ever the need arises.

I shall also be making myself available for one-on-one coaching sessions. These I do have to charge for – my time is obviously very limited and thus its only fair to expect something in return for what limited time I have – I’m sure you agree! More details about this will be available on the forum!

There is going to be more besides all of the above. Various services that come highly recommended by me personally (only those that I myself have used previously, thus the recommendations are indeed personal).

Further, I know quite a number of you would love to see services such as Blog Blueprint, LinkVana (similar to Blog Blueprint but ramped up!), Unique Article Wizard etc. being much more affordable to use on a monthly basis. If you were to take just these three alone, you would be looking at a monthly cost of at least $271 (I pay $281 due to the silly and unfair UK tax – I don’t even live there) and this is out of reach for many of us by a long way!

As such, what I would like to do is to find a way to combine these sort of services into a package and give you a special monthly deal on using them. I’ll get some more information on this up on the forum – coming soon! This service alone is gonna be HOT HOT! But, there has to be enough demand for it in the first place otherwise it will be unworkable. There will be discussions about this on the forum, without doubt!

Okay, that’s it for now. Forum will be up and running in the next few days. So fast, I know! Its exciting, very exciting!

Best!

Jo
