Default busy busy busy

I've got so much to do but don't seem to have the motivation or energy to finish anything

Fab Kidz is not that busy sales wise but it still takes a lot of time to amend stock levels due to the fact that most of the products are dropshipped

Sleepytopia is not going anywhere atm as I know what I want to stock but have cash tied up in stock from Kidz Fashion Zone that needs shifting asap. I have lots of plans for that site and can't wait to get them going!

A new project I've just started is a website for people who work at home, I'm working on trying to find the right software to put a shop on that and I have started a directory for people to advertise on for FREE. It's called WAH Network The main site is a work in progress but the forum is up and running.

My husband started a new job about 5 weeks ago and decided that I could build them a website I have no idea about that but hey ho. I bought the domain name from 1and1 and it comes with a 1 page website builer so I'm currently working on that too

oh and I work a 'day' job 27.5 hours a week and have a house and 2 kids to take care of too.

So when are we getting 48 hour days then

I need a holiday

so how's everyone else doing?

thanks Ruth, I feel like collapsing in a heap right now

dh is driving me nuts with his website, I've only been on it for 3 days and I need stuff from him (like photos) before I go any further and lay it all out. To be honest I really don't feel like doing it right now, I want to get on with my own stuff but I just love him too much to tell him to go away

Hi Sleepytopia - don't think I've posted you before...

Just had a look at Fab Kids & Sleepytopia sites - they're really nice and have some good stuff on them. Couldn't resist taking a look at the keywords (I'm so sad) and notived you have a strange one on Sleepytopia 'shopping cart' - this isn't very relevant to your site from what I can see. On Fab Kids you have loads of keywords, including 'bathroom!' which i find another strange one - the exclamation mark is unusual.

Have you or your developer done keyword research to ensure you're using the best keywords for your website?

OMG you are so sad

Sleepytopia is under construction so I haven't worked on keywords for that site yet

I have no idea where the ! came from in Fab Kidz though, I'll look into that tonight. I haven't really researched keywords for that site as I was concentrating on another site but have recently shut that one down and now I have more time to devote to Fab Kidz.

Thanks for the info

Yes - I'm now incapable of looking at websites without thinking through the SEO etc - it can be quite frustrating at times.

Just thought I'd point out the 'unusual' ones that really stood out. If you need any help when you get round to the actual keyword research let me know - I offer a report or alternatively I can point you in the direction of some good free resources.
