Monetization with AdSense and Other Ad Networks

Once you have a niche website setup, and begin getting some traffic, Google AdSense becomes a very appealing way to start earning some money. This is a common first step for most niche sites, so it’s worth a deeper exploration. Let’s take a look at what is required to earn $100 per day using AdSense […]

Selling Without Selling Out

I’ve mentioned this phrase, “selling without selling out”, several times on this blog and in my videos on Periscope. I’d like to take a moment to break that down a little bit and explain exactly what I mean by this.

Blogging For Fun & Profit

My clients are great at the bit about blogging for fun. They absolutely love the work they are doing with their website and truly enjoy serving their audience. Some have been putting in hours building their sites for years, with little to no income to show for their effort. That profit bit is where they […]

One Week at the Lake

After visiting Barcelona for a month, attending the Wikipedia conference in Berlin, and hosting the Raleigh SEO Meetup Conference - I'm spending a week at my lake property. Perhaps you read about The Lake Royale Project that I announced last year. Essentially, I have been able to build this business and live a life of location […]

Five Weeks in Europe as a Digital Nomad

A few months ago, I learned about the Wikimedia Conference in Berlin. Being one of the three founders of the Triangle Wikipedians user group in North Carolina, I had the opportunity to attend the conference this year. The main reason I was able to go when the other two founding members could not is that […]

Maybe SEO Is Not The Answer

I recently gave a presentation at the Raleigh SEO Meetup Conference which talked about why I decided not to deliver the SEO results my client asked for. The title and subtitle were selected because they would get the attention of attendees at the Raleigh SEO Meetup Conference. You see, I organized this conference and here […]

Wikimedia Conference in Berlin

What does Wikipedia have to do with monetization, business strategy, and online marketing? That's the first thing most people will ask when they learn about my involvement with Wikipedia and the free culture movement. Think about it this way, Wikipedia is one of the most popular websites in the whole world. It is dedicated to […]

Raleigh SEO Meetup Conference

The Raleigh SEO Meetup Conference was a huge success. Being the first year for this event, I used the Lean Startup Methodology to test my ideas, measure results, and pivot when needed. This is the same process I use when working with clients, and I use Lean Principles in my own businesses all the time.

Testing Your Business Idea

Have you ever had a business idea that you thought would be a hit, but couldn't find the courage to run with that idea? Maybe you're one of the many entrepreneurs that has created a very successful business that you loathe running. Another common problem for us entrepreneurs is the "shiny object syndrome." You know, […]

Everyone is talking about tenfold increases these days. Grant Cardone published The 10X Rule back in 2011 and said you should 10x your goals, now it seem that everyone is buzzing about increasing everything by tenfold. From 10x content discussions with Rand Fishkin and inbound.org to Google[x] director Astro Teller saying, "It’s easier to make something […]

Intentional Living

If you're like most people, you wake up in the morning and go to work five days a week. You spend about 8 hours a day at a job you hate because that's how you pay for the things you want and take care of the people you love. The problem is, this 40-hour workweek […]

How to crowdsource blog posts and presentations

This past week I spent three days at the Digital Marketing For Business conference in Raleigh. During that time, I attended several presentations and I even spoke at a few sessions of my own. Actually, I was the speaker at four sessions - the most of anyone at the conference. One common thread between all […]

Video SEO

So many people post videos to YouTube, Vimeo, and Facebook then wonder why their sales don't increase. There's more to publishing videos than simply getting a moving picture onto the web.

  • Frank knows his stuff when it comes to growing businesses for lifestyle design. From travel hacks to minimalism he'll quickly help you realize that your way is not the only way!

    Broc Pacholik

  • A few years ago I was looking for a way to get more active in the local Raleigh SEO community. I found the Raleigh SEO Meetup and went to my first session. There I met Frank, and have been a part of the group ever since. Frank has managed to move the starved group from meeting in a library, to having some of the biggest names in SEO speak. In addition, he helped the group spawn a very successful conference that received considerable praise for organization and content. The Raleigh SEO Meetup continues to grow and give great content to the Raleigh community under his leadership.

    JR Oakes

  • Besides his extensive business and technical expertise, Frank is an honest, trustworthy guy. We've developed a strong partnership that's lasted years. I trust his advice more than anyone I've ever interacted with in the online business world.

    I'd strongly recommend his services, and I wish we had more people like him in the online business sector.
