Retire Young and Wealthy

I hate saying sorry for not updating my blog, but I honestly have been busy these past few weeks. My mum and auntie visited me here in Bali, so I didn’t have much time to get online. I also had to renew my visa for Bali in Malaysia the week before that.

I also now have a dog, who keeps demanding my attention. He is asleep now, so I can write this in peace! I am sure it would be the same if you have kids, except you can’t lock your kids outside if they are naughty!

I am starting a business in Bali. I have now rented a small shop and now in the process of registering a company. I will also then apply for a working visa, so everything will be legal and above board.

It is certainly challenging doing this in a foreign country, but everything is cheap here, so there is not a huge amount of risk if it doesn’t work out. I love working on the internet and the benefits that can bring, but it would also be nice to tell people here and at home I have my own business. Few people have any clue about the internet where I am living in Bali. When my neighbor saw me talking on Skype with a webcam, they just couldn’t believe what they were seeing.

I am trying now to get back into writing articles. I am pretty amazed how much Google loves Ezinearticles. An article I wrote to promote a website is now on page one, just below the site I was trying to promote.

I just started reading this fantastic blog and it just reinforces so much of what I am reading lately, on non-guru type blogs. Keyword research is everything, writing articles rocks and then it is just a matter of monetizing them and repeating the whole process.

Forget about leaving comments on blogs (except your favorite blogs) to get traffic and trying to get more twitter followers and concentrate on producing content. Eventually you will find what works for you.

Another reason why I haven’t been blogging, is that I am in the process of taking over some sites including a forum. The sale is still not complete which is bothering me a little and which is why I don’t want to talk about it too much.

Isn’t he cute?!
