**Before I start off this post, I want to say that I don’t hate Apple. I prefer PC, but I’m not hating on Apple just for the fun of it. This post is of all seriousness.**
On September 1st, 2010, Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs, showcased the new line of Apple iPods. Almost everyone who uses Apple products watched the event (which was live).
While watching some of the event, as well as hearing the buzz on Twitter, I began realizing something – Apple never really releases new things.
Now, you are probably sitting there thinking, “Joe… Apple has about 20 products you can buy… What are you talking about?” Well, let’s discuss.
Why Apple Isn’t Going AnywhereThey Forgot “Quality not Quantity”.
Apple may have quite a few products, but think about it. They are all the same. All of their computers are the same. Just one or two new features.

Over the last month or two, many WordPress blogs have started using a plugin called PopUp Domination. If you’ve never heard of it, don’t fret, for I will tell you all about it.
PopUp Domination is a plugin for WordPress created by Michael Dunlop. The purpose? To get more subscriptions to your mailing list.
It basically, as you can probably tell from the title, creates a pop-up on your website, and it then advertises your feed. It also has a space for people to directly subscribe.
A lot of people have used this plugin, like I said. I usually will try out a product before doing any sort of review, but this time it’s different.
Why I Can’t Stand PopUp Domination It is DistractionFirst and foremost, the pop-up gets in the way of everything. It is a huge, extremely bright pop-up that gets in the way when [Read More...]
Much like last month, this month’s Monthly Mash-up is a day early. Why? Because the last day of the month is a Tuesday, a day that I do not post content (as of this date).
This month has been one of the greatest in the history of WebsiteBegin. In total, WebsiteBegin has received more comments (over 450) than any other previous month.
For that, I’d seriously like to thank you, and I am here to show my gratitude. So, without further ado, let’s hop into this!

If you’re a blogger, you’ve probably got caught up in the whole idea that you need to pump out tons of fresh content over and over and over again.
I do agree that putting out fresh content is one of the many keys to gaining popularity. Heck, I wrote 83 consecutive posts (one every day) just a few weeks back.
I don’t have a problem with every day posting, or even every-other-day posting (that’s what I am doing currently). There is a problem, however, with people who do a little bit more.
So, you may be asking “what’s your beef, Joe?”. Well, I cannot stand seeing people who post more than two articles a day. It just seems so wasteful.
Why More Than Daily Posting Hurts You No One Reads itIf you know anything about me, you’d know I’m all for blog commenting. Normally, I’d applaud the chance [Read More...]
Chances are, unless you are talking to a brick wall, you have at least one person reading your oh-so-valuable content. That’s a good thing. You need a community, much like a car needs gasoline to keep on going.
I don’t know about you, but I do indeed like to get destructive every now and again. I usually just destroy things for fun. Not for a particular reason.
I’ve been making an online presence for the last few months, and I have learned a few do’s and dont’s when it comes to building up your community.
Well, as I said above, I like destroying things, and the hot topic for today is your community, so I decided to write 10 ways to DESTROY your community before it even lifts off the ground.
How to Easily Murder Your Community Put 10 ads up on each page, most of which have nothing to [Read More...]
