Personal and Professional Development
Last Updated on Wednesday, 22 December 2010 06:53 Written by Ian McKenzie Wednesday, 22 December 2010 06:52
Those of you who know me well will know that I have spent most of my working career working in education, training, personal and professional development . Many years were in the schools sector, but around the last twenty years has been working with adults. In addition to lecturing in tertiary institutes my company Professional Performance Australia has successfully conducted numerous short courses, workshops and seminars for businesses both in Australia and overseas.
Advances in technology in recent years has also brought with it changes in the modes of delivery in many courses. Online learning for a variety of reasons is becoming increasingly popular.
I have had a web site called Personal and Professional Development for several years. Up until the last week or so, it was concerned solely with Australian accredited courses. Well, I have transferred all of those courses to another web site, and I have completely redesigned my Personal and Professional Development web site. No only is it redesigned, all of its content is brand new.
I have a way to go as yet, but when it is finished it will have in excess of one hundred and forty pages of Personal and Professional Development which can be accessed online. In my spare time I shall be working on it and plan to have it completed some time during August this year. The structure and around thirty pages of content are already published.
You are invited to take a look an give me your feedback on what you think about it.

Cheers for now

Club Asteria has been in the creation for many years, but in reality it just pre-launched this year. In the previous months we have attracted tens of thousands of people that are joining our mission and seeing our vision for the world. Our goal at Club Asteria is to reward the trust of each and every one of our members with the benefits that they will receive. We have met and exceeded every commitment and promise that we have made and will continue to do that in the future. We have made a positive contribution to the world with the donations that we have been able to make to help needy families provide food, health care, shelter and education to their families. We have donated to projects to provide fresh water by digging wells, and improve equipment for farming and delivery of products. We have provided micro credit loans to entrepreneurs all over the world. We will continue to support all of these endeavors to help the underserved people of the world. It is easy to join an organization once it has a 20 year proven track record. The promise that Club Asteria makes is that we will work as hard as we possibly can to deliver the full service and benefits to our members and to the world that needs us. Our commitment to deliver income opportunities, assist in creating extra income, transfer funds worldwide and share our revenue is what each and every one of the Directors of Club Asteria is committed to. The trust and confidence that so many tens of thousands of people have given us is a wonderful start to creating the dream of making the world a better place for all of us.
Adsense vs Adzly

Adsense vs Adzly

Adzly versus Adsense and others
If you have not heard of Google and Google Adsense, then you are probably living somewhere as a hermit, or you suffer from technophobia.
Google Adsense is the most popular contextual advertising on the internet. They have been around for some time and it is not likely that you can surf more than a few web sites without coming across Google Ads. However, they do have competition. Other advertising firms that I have used in recent years on my websites include AdBrite and Bidvertiser.
But, there is a new kid on the block! Its name is Adzly Adzly.
Adsense, Adbright, Bidvertiser, Infolinks, Chitika, Adlandpro, Clicksor and the dozens of other firms in the market place don’t hold a candle to Adzly .
Adzly has been around only since the last week in November, 2010. But, it has gone viral, and we will all see much more of adzly in the coming months and years. Those astute business people among us will also profit significantly from adzly . Especially if they are among the “early birds” catching this “worm”.
Personally over the last few days in my spare time I have been reviewing my various websites and deleting all of my AdBrite and Bidvertiser advertisements. These have all been replaced with adzly ads. Last count I had placed adzly widgets on 67 different sites. I have over 200 primary domains registered, so I still have a way to go.
Why am I adzlyising all of my sites?
Because, adzly is a powerful marketing tool that allows me (and you, if you choose) to place thousands of targeted ads across thousands of websites …, all for free!
Not only will adzly effectively promote products and services that we have on offer, but it will also earn a significant income for us at the same time.
Here is how it works:
- You create an adzly widget using adzly easy online interface.
- You then place this widget on one or more of your websites.
- If you prefer you can create different widgets for different websites. (this is my personal preference as it allows me to ascertain how each website is performing)
- Every time someone opens your page where you have a widget, you earn credits.
- Each widget that you place on a website has a link to your adzly account.
- If someone sets up their own FREE adzly account from one of your links. You not only get credit from your widgets, but also from all the widgets they place on their sites.
- The more credits you earn, the more opportunity you will have of getting your advertisements seen on websites which have some relation to the products and/or services you are marketing
All of this you can do without spending any money whatsoever!

Hello
Welcome to Ian's Business dot com. It's almost Christmas 2010 (21/12/10). This site has been neglected. The domain name was registered quite some time ago and I had planned to use Joomla for the site, but other things took priority. I currently have a couple of weeks off form my regular work and plan on catching up on sites such as this one. Hopefully by about mid-January, it will be worth taking a look.
Cheers
Ian
