I’ve been pretty blogging frequently now that I make the time to sit down and write. It’s actually quite relaxing. Getting my thoughts out on virtual paper for all the world to read. When I first decided to blog, it was for me to journalize and get my thoughts out. With technology today, the thought of actually putting pencil to paper and writing is daunting. I had to fill out the customs form on the airplane coming home and I caught a cramp after filling in my name and address. I had to open and close it a couple of times to loosen it up. I nodded my head in shame. I have succumbed to the digital age where carpal tunnel is a guarantee and writing my name in cursive has to be re-learned like in Kindergarten. Off tangent: Writing in cursive is a dying skill and needs to be brought back!!!
Getting comments and hearing from friends that they enjoy reading what I write, makes me happy. Now, I look forward to sharing my blogs and reading comments. I hope to be able to get more people to read my blog and get in my head. We all learn from each other and I hope to be able to cheer someone up, open their eyes, or give them a helping hand when in need. There is a RSS Feed option on the right side bar but heck if I know what that is! So, I googled it. It still made no sense. LOL So, I decided to add a subscribe option on my blog. Tada!! Feel free to subscribe and be notified when I post a new blog. Please subscribe and share.
Now, on to the fun stuff. I took the leap. Yes, I did. For the internet gurus that are webmasters of multiple sites, this is all laughable. I’m a rookie, and who in the world would PAY to have their own domain just for shits and giggles? Well, as I was goofing around on weebly I saw a little ad that said, 30% off your domain today. Ok, wow. That’s some savings, I think. So, I click on it and read on. It’ll cost me close to $200 to own my domain name for the next ten years (total, not per year). An added bonus, I will get $100 credit to use google ad sense. Again, what the hell is that?! Ack, I’ll figure it out.
With the coupon code, my new total was $129 to own my domain name for the next 10 years. Add in the $100 credit, it’s like paying $29 for it! Jimineys I sound like the walgreens ads. Ok. ok. so what’s the damn point? WHY pay to own olipasinc.com versus olipasinc.weebly.com. They’re both online, they’re both accessible, and if they google me, the site comes up anyway. Bottom line, it’s fricken COOL to own it. And for that price! The next ten years!!! OLIPAS INC LIVES!!! Muahahahaah!!!

After I filled in the blanks, hesitated, calculated, and thought about it again, I hit PAY (as I held my breath). I know, I’m making a big deal out of nothing, right? Not to me. I’m committed now. There’s no turning back, and I can promote whatever I damn well please on the internet! Yippee!! I feel like He-Man. “BY THE POWER OF GREYSKULL! I HAVE THE POWER!!”
As I continued to review the weebly site for more fun things, there was another offer. Spend $50 on google ad sense and get $150 for free. First, I need to figure out how to use those ads to benefit me and my ventures. Then, I'll consider paying another $50. But damn, that'll give me $300 to spend on marketing and promotion and all I paid was $79 total bucks out of pocket, essentially. The coupon thing, it's in my blood.
For those who still use the weebly link, it will forward you to the new site.
If you’ve got suggestions for me, I’d love to hear it. How can I make this site easier to use, roam, surf?
What would you like to see on my site? I’m considering putting an ecommerce page so you can buy oils and other items from me that I currently have on hand.
Again, thanks for reading, visiting, and following me my lovely stalkers and trolls.
