I’m having some problems with feedburner and will be stopping the use of it very soon. If you are subscribed to my feed, make sure your feed is updated to the latest feed address.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

If you don’t know what I’m talking about, then kindly ignore this post. 🙂

A few days ago, there was an earthquake in Taiwan that destroyed major communication cables deployed under the sea. As a result, the internet access in my country was badly affected.

Hardly anyone was able to connect to websites that were overseas, and many businesses had their operations disrupted.

It will take a few weeks for services to be restored to normal.

For now, my internet is crawling along at a very slow speed, just like pre-broadband times.

As we move forward in the internet age, we seem to take for granted the availability of information at our fingertips. We forget that many factors beyond our control could and will alter the environment that we operate in.

Is your business prepared for such shocks or even changes in your operating environment?

If you are depending mainly on Google for your web traffic, what happens if Google suddenly change their rules one day?

If you are depending mainly on print advertising for your lead generation, what happens if your advertisements stop being effective one day?

If you are depending mainly on walk-in traffic to your restaurant, what happens if visitors suddenly stop coming one day?

Do you have multiple marketing channels in place so that a major change to any one of them will not have a significant impact on your overall bottomline?

How did you find the animated greeting? Pretty cool right? It was created using a free software called Flipz. If you like to download it, you can find a link to the software under my resources page.

After a few days of hard work, the revamp of the AbrahamClub.com website has finally been completed!

There is still a fair bit of work to be done to tidy up everything. But for now, I think you will definitely find it much easier to locate the information that you need with this new layout and navigation.

If you have any feedback, please feel free to leave me a comment.

As we celebrate Thanksgiving Day, let us look back at the year and be thankful for things that have (or not) happened to us.

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.
~John Fitzgerald Kennedy

It is time to get busy again buying Christmas presents and stuff. If you are still undecided about what presents to give to your families and friends, why not consider giving them the wealth of knowledge? ==> A book.

Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information on it.
~Samuel Johnson

And if you do not know what kind of knowledge to give them, then let them choose what they want by giving them an Amazon gift certificate.

I received quite a few emails from loyal readers like you saying that they were sad to see my club closing down.

Just to clarify, the one that is closing down is Jay Abraham Insiders Club which is operated by Jay. This www.www.abrahamclub.com site is a separate and independent site run entirely by myself.

As long as there are readers and I still have time and energy, it will continue to run! 🙂

Even though AbrahamClub.com has been up for a week already, I only decided to put up a blog to provide updates to the site today. The thought of updating static html pages and manually uploading them via ftp regularly just doesn’t appeal to me. It’s too much work that just doesn’t add much value. I would rather use the time to improve the site. This blog provides a simple and effective way for me to provide news and updates of the site.

Of course, another reason is that I just read today that blogs provide a quick way for your website to be indexed by the search engines. Actually, I have come across this more than once but today is the day that I finally took action. If it works, I will implement it for my other sites too.
