MY BIO

Hello, I'm Andre' Hartslief "I finally discovered, that man's whole purpose in life, is not to do the right things in life or to be good,
 to be successful or famous. Our entire purpose in life, is to express divinity through everyone of us.
 How we do that, is by transforming ourselves completely, from an old state of existence to a new state and when we start
removing those limitations. It is only, then, that the intelligence which  gives us all life, namely, the source,
begins to express itself unbridled through us.

'HOT' content is the key

Many SEO fads come and go but the one true technique Google goes nuts over is original content.

Just as a delicate seedling, your website needs your care and time to grow and prosper. Setting aside just an hour a week to write about the latest ‘hot’ topic in your industry can be enough to keep your rankings on the upswing.

Stay up to date

Writing an article or blog, remember the goal is to position yourself as the absolute expert in your industry, the trusted wise one others flock to. So do your research, find out who the big guns in your industry are and who manufacturers the products. Be the first to know when a new product is released or a new event organised. Follow twitter and Facebook accounts, subscribe to newsletters, attend events, chat in forums there’s literally endless ways to stay in the loop.

Write now!

Once you are in the loop the rest is simple. As soon as a new event, product or technique enters your field of work, write about it! Find out as much information as you can and write about it as soon as possible. Be the first and others will come to you seeking to write about the same topic. If your content is original and they like what they read they will endorse you and your site. Which means a healthy natural link for you!

If you don’t have the time to write these yourself you can always outsource it. We now offers article and content writing services for your website. Let us write it for you, all you will need to do is approve it. We thoroughly research your topic and compose original content which can be added as blogs to your site.

NEED A CUSTOM-MADE BOOK COVER?

NEED A CUSTOM-MADE BOOK COVER?

You have written your first eBook, now you need a cover for it. So how important is the cover? After all, past history would have us believe that we are "never to judge a book by its cover." Well, it may have been true in the day but since the advent of eBooks, that supposition will be fatal for the sale of your new book!

In 100% of cases, on pusher's like Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Penguin books etc, the exact pre-determined formulae for the various eBook niches is absolutely paramount. But off course,  you knew that, right? No, you did not and this is why your book is going to be sitting there on its own little desert island. Even the blurbs, need to conform. Blurbs? What the heck are they?
Right and so on and so forth.

I know these cover formulae, that's correct formulae and I can at the very least remove an inappropriate cover from the myriad other disqualifying factors out there, ready to pounce and kill your book stone dead before it ever had a chance to be read.

I can help and I'm NOT geared to rip you off. If you believe this and want to hear more about how I will do this, say so below in the comments section.
