I almost feel like a relationship has ended. As of this week, you won’t see me teaching people to build entire empires of content on free sites. You’re going to use them to your benefit a bit, but never again will I – or you – rely on sites like Squidoo, Ezine Articles, Blog sites or Hub Pages or anything like them to build our online businesses.

The crackdowns on web 2.0 sites have been staggering. Doesn’t matter if your content’s 100% original, if you own the site you want to link to – if you have a PhD in your niche. They can SHUT YOU DOWN without warning and all your hard work is gone.

This week someone threw me a life preserver. Craig Kaye asked me if I’d tried out Network Blazer yet – it’s kind of a host and site builder all in one. I hadn’t, and was wary of site builders since I honestly couldn’t figure out the one’s I’d bought in the past, I’m embarrassed to say. I don’t have a tech-savvy bone in my body.

See the title of this blog post? I get it via email several times a week. People who read something online that I wrote want to know if my glowing reviews still stand. A couple of weeks ago, a subscriber told me flat out he’d have to mortgage his firstborn to afford it, but if I said Info Product Killer was worth it, he would. He emailed me back days later to say I was right – he was SO impressed.

Then this past week Belinda emailed me. This is what she had to say:

“Hi Tiff,

I’ve gotten two back to back emails from people who bogged themselves down in the fine details of something so bad that they got stuck!  Sometimes, you can unstick yourself by following the mantra of this blog post – Keep It Simple, Stupid!

In this case, instead of simply using a template and uploading using cpanel, one person has bought various extra tools – professional website builders and specific FTP tools. Now they had dumped a whole bunch of extra work on themselves – to learn how to use two more tools.

In this case, it’s with IPK – Info Product Killer. The whole purpose, if you remember reading the PDFs or watching the videos, is to QUICKLY get your content up and feeding the search engines. He states that we shouldn’t get wrapped up in making everything perfect – content, etc.

When I buy a product like this, it’s a good idea to follow the basic instructions. If you recall, I whizzed through it so fast initially that I bought the wrong kind of domains. That’s a mistake you don’t want to make. But here’s how I’m Keeping It Simple, Stupid:

1.) I outsourced the content. Since this was for my own sites, I didn’t have to worry about quality as I would with a ghostwriting client.

2.) With the content i got back, I had the urge to correct mistakes like putting the period inside the quotation marks, or fixing it’s to its whenever I noticed a mistake. But I had to stop and post it as is. I was taking too much time rewriting it – what a waste!

3.) I use one template and plug in new graphics. I don’t use any website building software. One person said he looked at the HTML code of the IPK template and it blew his mind. Don’t look behind the curtain! You’ll make it harder than it should be. You don’t need to know complicated code. I use a simple FrontPage program and cut and paste my content in there.

These are just a few ways but you get the gist of it, don’t you? Stop trying to overthink things. I have to rein myself in from time to time, too. Just check yourself on occasion and you’ll be fine
