Go It Alone!

Go It Alone! The Secret to Building a Successful Business on Your Own by Bruce Judson
** FREE Online **
I read this book several years ago and keep going back to it. It is a great resource to jump starting your outsourcing brain. For all you infopreneurs out there this is the model to follow. Let’s face it outsourcing is outsourcing. Whether it is a physical or a digital product.

“Today, the conventional wisdom about how to start a substantial business is just plain wrong. Now, you don’t need to raise a lot of money first, you don’t need a team of employees, and you don’t need limitless financial resources. This book details how in today’s business environment it is easier, and more possible, than ever to build a significant business on your own with no employees.”

Sit down, read the book. It is well worth the time.

1. Login to WordPress as Admin
2. Make a new Page called Home and assign it Page Order 0.
3. Make another new Page called Blog and assign it Page Order 60. This will be the last Page item in your menu.
4. Select the Admin section and then the Options, Reading. Select the Home page as Front page and Blog page as posts page.
5. View the site.

Optional – Menu Themes

If you theme has a menu at the top make sure both of the pages show up. If not check the Header.php file and add wp_list_pages(’sort_column=menu_order&title_li=’) to add a menu.

Also, some themes have the “home” page listing hard coded in the Header.php. If you view your site and have two Home listings in the menu, then edit Header.php and delete the default home item.

Optional – Searching Pages and Posts

If you want to be able to search your pages and posts then
you should install the Search Pages 2.0 Plugin.
With this plugin installed you will be able to search for information stored in the pages as well as the posts.

Trade Secret: I number the pages (Page Order) in increments of 10. That way I can “insert” a new page if I need to between two other pages.

Key: The Page Order is key in this setup. This will determine what order the pages are displayed in the menu. You can go into Manage, Pages and change the Page Order at anytime.

Here is an example of the basic pages I setup for each site:

In this example, Home will be the 1^st page because
it has the lowest Page Order value of 0 and About will be the last with a Page
Order value of 60.

I am just putting the final touches on a new ebook that will be available in the next few months. It has been a long process but worth all the effort.

I set out on this path to try and understand what it takes to create “AutoPilot” web sites. What I mean by this is how do you have a web site that runs on its own?

A lot of people can setup a web site but over time they discover it takes a lot of work maintaining the site, adding new content, processing online orders, updating search engines, etc.

I have made this mistake a few times in the past with sites I have developed as well. Over time you discover making changes is so painful that it is not worth it.

And then your dream becomes a big choir.

Don’t let this happen to you. Design your site so it is easy to update and maintain from the beginning. This book will walk you through these steps and many more so your site runs on it own.

Thanks,
Steve
