From one Newbie to Another

slobizman · 08-17-2005, 06:54 AM

Hello everyone. I'm a newbie and have been busy for the last few weeks reading tons of information on the world of domain investing. I realized that I could not possibly be the only one going through all this so started a blog where I'd keep a journal of sorts on my education, my successes and my mistakes. I'm hoping that newbies can learn a few things along with me.

So, to all newbies: please stop by DomainRookie.com and bookmark it.

Experts feel free to stop by as well to show me what I'm doing wrong. I've got no ego about being corrected; I'm there to learn.

Thats a good site, thanks for the link mate.

I will be following your blog because I am in the same boat as you... I hope to learn as much as possible from this business and be successful at it some day. Personally, my vision of successful is the ability to do this from home as a full time job, and that is my long-term goal. It is going to be very difficult to acheive, but any goal worth setting can't be too easy now, can it?

Great name for your blog, too...

Thank you.

I hope I can build a big enough base of readers where we can all help to educate each other.

If you have any ideas as to where I might be able to market this, please let me know. Perhaps there are some blogs about this subject that might mention it.

Well, I like blogexplosion, it is basically a traffic sharing program for blogs, but I think it is different from the basic run of the mill traffic sharing programs because it is about blogs and most of them are not really commercial, so you read some really good ones and you don't have to worry about seeing only crap sites that want to sell you something... If you want to sign up maybe you can use my affiliate link:

I will add a link to your blog on mine, it doesn't get a lot of traffic but it can't hurt... I am http://petermack.blogspot.com and I hope to get it switched over to petermackinnon.com sometime soon...
