    you don't need three posts to say what you could have said in one post. Whats the rules for signatures? Can u reduce that annoying font and the colours? its sore on the eyes. if you do that, i might check out your blog.

    Found that in your business plan part. The reason why people don't use it as much is because its cost them to instal something extra in their car to use it (assuming they don't ahve the gas converter in the first place). In australia our goverment is paying for the gas conversion because of the crazy petrol prices,

    BUT, if we do convert, the gas will run out within 50 years or something, then we would have no more natural gas in australia. Mind you, Australian has one of the most natural gas in the world if I haven't mistaken.

    Another thing is that things happen gradually, and if the conversion is going to happen, it will take awhile. I mean, even when the bloody government is giving us free gas conversions, there is still not enough people wanting to harm their car but chucking a frigging gas tank at the back (or underneath) their car.

    Which brings me to the point of your blog, even if we do send your blog around, I don't see how it will help you get rich. If anything, it probably be treated as spam, which would be alot worse for you. You should go through the right way to promote your blog, and that is through good blog entries, great articles and by getting a good reputation on the internet.

    You can also comment on other people's blog (NOT WITH SPAM COMMENTS) and make a contribution to forums, people will eventually want to know more about you and also listen to what you say. Which works alot better than spam emails.

    Its for the long run, having a sudden spike in traffic at your website really means nothing because they will never return

    hmmmm thanks for your advice,
    but I dont think sending your friends a mail with a message to help me would considered as spam.

    I am almost 25 years and in my short life I have tried alot to get my dream or a business partnership and I see this blog as another way to try it.

    Thanks for your good advice tho

    you must be joking...

    i would say if you have a blog which is interesting, then people will read it and that will build overtime as you get a reputation. spamming people about a blog is unlikely to change much apart from pissing people off.

    well I gotta try don't I ??
    you never receive those foolish mails about save this or watch that which you forward ?
    Well thats what I try to get with my blog.
    Maybe someone will see I am serious and offer me my dream job. Maybe not. At least I will have tried.

    if you don't want to give me this chance then don't, I won't be flaming you.

    just do it if you feel like try doing something non selfish

    I'll assume thats a joke also. If not its emotional blackmail... and very amateurishly done too.

    Although you're right. If you don't ask, you don't get I suppose.

    its not emotional blackmail my friend, its just this whole world is so selfish based lately. The ego goes before everything without considering any others.

    Like I said, I am just asking, if you dont want to I wont blame you.

    Cemiko - man, again, you're getting into the MASS MEDIA business. Use your media.

    You want to promote your blog. Good idea - join forums with readership, post a handful of eye catching posts and include it in your signature. You shouldn't have to drive traffic through BEGGING. The problem is you're giving off an air that what your blog contains is not really worth reading. Find a few blogs that you enjoy - ask the owner if you can contribute a piece or two - and again, include your blog link as a signature.

    If you think people are going to send out emails to their friends saying "hey, check this out" and include a link to your blog, which is something a lot of these people THEMSELVES don't read...

    I don't email forwards. period. My friends know this. if it comes to me the chain is done. The last thing I'm going to do is send out an email asking my friends to read something that I DONT READ.

    And stop trying to appeal to people's emotions "if we help him, he'll help us". "He's going to change the world". (un)Fortunately, most people are a little more cynical than that. They're going to approach your blog like ALL blogs with "What am I going to get out of this". You've got to GIVE something to get something and unfortuantely, up until this point, all you can offer is the faith that you'll be successful and that we'll all sit back one day 5 years from now and say "oooh, so THIS is what he was trying to do".

    Again, no one is telling you NOT to move forward, we're ALL simply advocating a shred of creativity and some acumen.

    How about a funny story on your blog that folks can relate to that has to do with reaching your goal? What about an interview, or a podcast? Some music? SOME CONTENT that would give people a reason to read your blog, repeatedly.

    my darling,

    you obvisiously did't read my previous posts on my forum ))))

    or can't you relate yourself with my "mystery man" post ?
    how did you like my post about the old man ?

    tell me

    I must excuse myself for my behaviour today because I am so extremely happy I found some real investorish person who like to hear my idea !!!!!!
    I mean I might become well known once this idea starts.

    If you think I am annoying just ignore me for a day or two ( At least till monday)

    This is a ridiculous idea because your blog isn't very good. No offense though. You have like 4 posts about nothing.

    If you want traffic to your site, focus on quality writing, not trying to get people to spam their friends and family to go to something that is not interesting. "If you make it, they will come"
    "Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."
