I have officially launched my new “Eric’s Tips” blog at:

www.ericstips.com

Admittedly, I’ve somewhat strayed from my original intent to keep my personal life and business life integrated in one blog here at Ugly Blog. I’ve decided to seperate the purely business aspect, and put my marketing tips and adventures in a new blog focused on internet marketing.

I’ll still talk about some business stuff here, but probably more in the context of how it pertains to my personal and spiritual life. Ugly Blog will also be the place to talk about business in Christianity, ethics, etc. However, posts that are purely business/marketing in nature will be in Eric’s Tips.

The reason for the change is simply BRANDING. I’ve decided that an important part of my overall business plan is to develop and build a large membership of online marketers who are interested in my advice. The name Ugly Blog just wasn’t doing the job, and the hodge-podge methodology to this “ugly” blog was not conducive to attracting serious readership from marketers.

Don’t worry (I say this mainly to my two brothers who remain the only avid readers of this blog), I will continue to update Ugly Blog. It will just be a little less frequently, as I’ll have to post regularly to Eric’s Tips to keep people interested. Then in a couple years when I retire I can focus more on Ugly Blog
