Here is a personal recommendation
from the CEO of SuperTips
Recently I was sitting back admiring my web site home page: what a great piece of work I thought - and it only took 59 revisions.
I was then hit by a barrage of criticisms, such as
- the navigation is poor
- the section headers look like links
- the combination of different fonts is annoying
- too much bolding
- too much italics
- the page looks too wide on a high screen resolution
- and more
How dare they pull my page to pieces - you may think.
So was I angry ?
No - this is information I would gladly pay a fortune for.
I had asked a group of people to review my site and spare no mercy.
I had asked them in a forum called "Site Reviews"
This is just one of 13 forums where you can ask questions about absolutely anything
Your questions are answered by members of a 'club' who are impartial and have no axe to grind. If they say a particular software product is good or bad - and they will - they have nothing to gain.
There are actually 13 forums each run by an expert, people like Jim Daniels, Michel Fortin and Ralph Hilliard.
Forums such as web copy writing, site promotion, web design, beginners basics.
For example you want to build an opt-in mailing list and need advice. Well Jim Daniels, one of the biggest names on the net, should know: his ezine circulation is 50,000. So just go ahead and ask him ! He runs the opt-in email marketing forum.
Back in the very first issue of our newsletter, the SuperTips Ezine, I was asked "what was the best decision or tactic that you used when becoming an online marketer and what was your worst mistake"
My reply then was that the best decision was to get my own domain name. If asked now I would say emphatically it would be to join a group where you can get expert advice any time of the day.
Such a group is IMC (Internet Marketing Challenge). (See footnote)
My worst mistake would be that I did not join earlier.
Don't copy my mistake.
See what IMC have to offer - just click here (See footnote)
And if you are not happy after 90 days you will get a 100% refund. That's guaranteed.
Thanks for reading.

Harvey Segal
FOOTNOTE
In February 2003 IMC was discontinued. However I now have found some excellent replacements. They are the private Internet marketing forums sites listed here.
