Eric, who writes that blog, is an Internet veteran. And he has a wonderful ability to dig out all sorts of information from the most obscure places and write about it on his blog.
A recent article of his that I [...]

Thanks to my new friend Don, I got a question through my ‘Dear Martin‘ page this week, about how to start an Internet Business.
As it turns out Don was way ahead of where I assumed he was in his on-line work, so most of what I gave him was of little use (to him, at [...]

I’m just on the point of launching my web site services business, so this post from Eric at Web Services and Tools caught my eye.

A while ago I wrote an article directed at people who’ve been working online for a reasonable time (9 months to a year). I said that you probably under-estimate how much you know and suggested some ways you could use that knowledge to earn additional income from local, off-line businesses in your area.

Q. Why should you pay the monthly fee associated with the big, well-established autoresponder service providers, when there are several autoresponder applications that you can download, install and run yourself – free..?
