Jan. 12, 2007 - Gene's Board

Hey, Happy New Year everybody. I hope that things are going well for you. So far so good here.

What is Gene's Board, you ask. Well feel free to click the link and go there. Once you get there it's kind of self explanatory, but I will expound upon it in a minute. Why would I talk about it in my Real Estate Blog, you wonder. Well if you follow this blog you will already know that the term Real Estate Blog is used pretty, loosely and I do usually tie everything in, but sometimes not.

Anyway, Gene's Board is a community bulletin board that I put up for the use of anyone who wants to get the word out about something. I have it tied into my web sites in the hopes that people will go to it and actually use it. There are a few categories right now, such as an explanation of what it is (sort of my vision of what I hope it will become), For Sale (which did have a cool Mercedes posted in it, until it sold) Business Directory (which does have a couple of business posted in it) and today I added a Not For Profit Organizations category. That should have at least one organization posted in it soon.

Outside of word of mouth and the links on my web sites, I haven't quite figured out how to promote it though. That maybe explains the lackluster use it's been getting. I mean here I am offering what amounts to free Internet advertising to anyone who is interested in using it and it gets so little attention. That's why I thought I would blog about it. Maybe that will light the fire.

I realize that if someone should want a particular category added they would have to contact me to set it up, but that's OK, I don't bite. I love doing this stuff, so don't be shy.

As always, if you have found yourself receiving my blog postings via e-mail, it is because I have either blogged about you personally, blogged about something I know is of interest to you, or I consider you to be a person of deep thinking and intellect and I would love to have you occasionally commenting on my blog. If you would like to be removed from the list simply send me an e-mail saying so.
