You can use it to showcase your hobby by creating photo albums, posting stories and participating in the forum all of which give you the exposure you need linking back to your site. And due to the fact that it is a hobby site those back links are really good for your own site and help you get better rankings in google searches. Plus you might get your first clients from there as well you never know.

These days everyone uses social networks to promote their business due to the fact that everyone uses one or another. So if you take your hobby on the next level and start your own business I think http://www.hobbything.com/ could be a great start.

I am a retired (newly) accountant who has always wanted to work online, and I have a lot of interests, so the question was which one?

I took some time and researched so that I wouldn't spend a lot of money here and there for this and that.

I decided ultimately to talk to a coach, Terry Dean (www.mymarketingcoach.com), and this is the best decision I could have made. It has saved me not only money but time, and now I know exactly what direction I'm headed and the fastest way to get there.

I like the blog and hope to be back.

The best thing about making money as a freelancer is that you have control over your time. You have no boss and you set your own deadlines. It all depends on whether if you would make your schedule stressful or not.

I treat my blogging as an internet business but I still enjoy it.

Nice post. Happy blogging!

I'm going to be a columnist at the MANILA MAIL newspaper, arguably the largest Filipino American newspaper in circulation in Northern Cailfornia. My column will be about ... and other ... subjects.

IS it OK to mention your website... as the source of my information on ... ?

Thank you very much, sir, and more power to your very hefty and informative web presence!

Respectfully yours,
