HI - Nice to see you again. Have you sent any greeting cards recently?
I have set up the blog for option 2 & 3 purchasers. For now it is available to everyone but won’t be for long. I know there is one person who misspelled their email so I want to make sure everyone knows about the new blog. If you have payed for the course or made arrangements with me and did not receive an email confirming, let me know. roxanne at coachroxanne dot com
It should be placed at or near the top of your blog. Why? Because when am going through the blogs and dropping cards, I like to read a post or two while I’m there. If I can’t find your widget by just looking or scrolling a tiny bit, I will scroll down, look for your widget, drop on you and leave. I don’t have time to scroll all the way back up to the top and begin to read posts. Many times it takes a long time for the whole page to load so by the time I find the widget and drop, it’s taken too much time already. Especially if you are one with the widget at the bottom, chances are that’s because you have a LOT of other stuff in the sidebar. That all makes your page load slower. The stuff at the top loads first. If your widget is at the top, I can drop and begin to read as your page is loading. Then sometimes another sidebar button may catch my eye and I may click on that also.
You may ask, why don’t I read while I’m scrolling down. Well…if you want me to pay attention to what you are writing, I can’t be reading AND looking at your sidebar to find the entrecard widget. I would miss it if I got caught up in a post and not look for it again. I know that so I don’t even begin to read posts until I’ve dropped on your widget.
I hope that makes sense. Check out my blogging teleseminar course where you will learn how to get tons of actual readers to your blog instead of just traffic. Which would you rather have – someone who just stopped by to drop a card or someone who stopped by, read a post or two and dropped a card?
Where is your widget and why? Leave me a comment.

Roxanne explains her 3 week blogging teleseminar course. You don’t need to have a blog or a product to take the course. Due to popular demand, this course is going to be a home study course with the first course materials delivered on or before February 17, 2009 instead of a teleseminar course. All else remains the same as discussed in the video below.
I did not get to take another video that day because I got caught up with the whole cooking dinner thing (this family of mine expects to eat EVERY DAY for some reason). I did get back to show you the sky after the sun went down about 2 days later. It’s a little shaky. Here it is:
