Vacation and business planning

This week I have been on a short vacation visiting my fiances mother.
We have just been enjoying life, and been taking it really easy all week long.

 

But I have also had some time to do some business planning.
I have developed/planned 2 different franchise concepts, 1 online and 1 offline.
This will be very interesting stuff, and I will be presenting more about it soon.

 

On saturday I am going on another short vacation trip to my house in the north of Sweden, there I am not going to do any work, just relax, enjoy the sun, fishing and have a lot of bbqs.

 

I will be back next thursday, with my batteries re-charged, and more creative than ever.

 

 

Blog Statistics - What an improvment!

This month I started to “advertise” my blog in some forums in my signature (that is shown with every post), I make about 100 posts a day in different forums so my link is shown quite much. I have never before even bothered to look at the statistics of this blog, but now it got more interesting and I was amazed of the first restults.

The first week the unique visitors went from an average of 2 a day to 20 a day, now it suddenly got very interesting to analyze the stats, and see where the traffic came from.

What is even more amazing is that the past week I have been doing some link exchanges with other entrepreneurs and that has made my unique visitors grow to a steady average of 70 uniques per day. This feels really great and if it carries on in this speed, this can soon be something very valuable and profitable for me.

The quest for a name

I usually do not have any problems in making up names for my sites, it often takes sometime but eventually I get it and just go register the domain.
But now for the first time my name-creativity is gone.

What I am looking for is a name for mine and Niklas K’s forum network, and I have been trying to come up with a good name now for almost 2 weeks, but nothing is good enough so far.

Well, I will keep trying and hopefully soon something will pop-up.

New business partner - Niklas Kvarnström

I have recently been starting working with my long-time Internet friend Niklas Kvarnström, he is an excellent young entreprenur and is very much like me in many ways, because of that I know this will be a wonderfull cooperation and a total success.

Niklas and I are building a network of music and lifestyle sites, and we currently have 3 ready:

RockerForum.com
MusicDialog.com
eMusicTalk.com not yet opened

We are planning about 10 sites, and the sites already developed are growing ok. Now we will just optimize them for ads and seo.
