Why You Should House Sit Around The World

This post was written by expert vagabond, Ana, from The Art of Epic Living!

What exactly is house sitting anyway?
Well, it’s like babysitting, except instead of watching a kid, house sitters are in charge of looking after the house, pets, and gardens of homeowners who need to go out of town for one reason or another.

*** Are You Mobile? ***

How does your Website, Blog or Facebook Page look on a mobile phone?
Are you missing out on loads of traffic and what does Google say?


Mobile phone XXX

Take this one minute Google Test to see …  https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly

It checks … 

  • If text is readable without zooming
  • Whether users have to scroll horizontally or zoom
  • If links are far enough apart so that the correct one can be easily tapped
  • For software that isn’t common on mobile devices, like Flash

And shows …

  • What Googlebot sees and how it affects your website performance and search engine ranking.
  • What it takes to earn “mobile friendly” status with Google. This is important because Google, and other search engines, now look for “Mobile Fiendly Tags” when determining Page Rankings and positions.

Check your site, it only takes one minute.

If your site is Mobile Friendly – Great.

If not, you know what to do.

Please pass this on to friends, colleagues or even your enemies to help their website design.

Thank you.

*** Is Your Website Down? – How Do You Know? ***

Do you know when visitors to your website or blog see this?

—————————————————
404 Error: File Not Found
The URL you requested was not found
—————————————————

You have invested time and money in your website and it must work for you.

  • But what if it isn’t there?
  • What if nobody can find it?
  • And how do you know when it’s down?

When our previous website stopped delivering the traffic we expected we carried out a lot of tests to discover why and it was only when we installed Uptime Robot we found the hosting server kept dropping out, sometimes for hours at a time, due to testing they were doing which had nothing to do with us.

Uptime Robot pinged our website every few minutes and sent us an email whenever our site went down and another email when it came back up so we knew how often and for how long our site was down.

Your hosting company isn’t likely to tell you they’re not providing the service you expect, and pay for, so getting an alert when your website is down is very much in your own interest so you can do something about it.

The sad truth is that if visitors see your website is down, they most likely won’t visit you again, and worse, may well spread the word your site was down when they visited.

We highly recommend installing  Uptime Robot – and it’s free.

It takes just a few minutes to set up and immediately gives you the comfort of knowing how reliable your website is.

PS. We installed our new Traveljunkies website in January using a different host and Uptime Robot is now showing 100% availability.

*** Lifestyle ***

Travel and work anywhere in the world.

Don’t tie yourself down doing a job you hate. Free yourself to travel and work anywhere in the world you choose.

Let’s face it … you hear this all the time

A few months ago some guy was living in his car and now he’s driving around in a limousine and living in a mansion. And all because he’s discovered a new way of making money nobody’s thought of before, and he wants to share it with you.

Yeah, right!

But now and again, someone comes along who really is making a life changing income and showing others how to do the same thing. They are totally different to other people out there on the Internet.
 
 
Andrew Reynolds is not your typical rags to riches story. The fact is he had a decent job before he started making millions online every year…
The only problem was he hated his job, and maybe you do too?
  • He hated the commute every day, stuck in traffic every morning and evening.
  • Working himself to the bone.
  • Barely making enough to get by

Do you recognise this or perhaps your circumstances are different. Maybe you haven’t got a job, or it doesn’t pay enough or you just want a change.

Andrew decided to take action and create a different life for himself, and you can do the same.
Now he has a thriving home business that practically runs on autopilot from his laptop and if this sounds good to you … 
 
 
It can be absolutely life changing
