About Us
We are currently travelling around New Zealand in an old Bedford Van/ Ambulance which has been professionally refurbished into a motorhome/ campervan.

Goa, India, thinking about domain names on Christmas day
Thinking about it our latops have been in quite a few countries and have a good story of their own to tell. We both had been working in Sweden and left in March 2008 to do some travelling. While in Malaysia we came across their annual PC / laptop fair which was huge and it was hard to leave with out purchasing two brandnew dell latops. From their our laptops and temporary offices have been setup in Cambodia, Bali – Indonesia, Vietnam, India, China, and Thailand and now New Zealand while travelling the last 13 months.
Now we are in New Zealand which is my home country, travelling N.Z in our campervan using mobile broadband to continue to run our domain names and website interests. Instead of the recent past for the never ending search for wireless enabled hostels or friendly internet cafe owners that would let us connect our laptops while in Asia.
I built my first website in 1997 while at high school and building websites was a hobby for me. It wasnt until 2003 that I come across google adsense that I made my first money making website.

Bali, Indonesia
But it wasn’t till early 2008 I got into websites again and made a new site from an idea I had. It was on my search for websites to advertise on that I got chatting to Ed Keay-Smith from www.Ozdomainer.com, an Australian domainer, Google Adwords specialist and Seo guru, who refered me to his personal blog which has open my eyes to this industry and have him to thank him for that.
Over the last 13 months travelling Asia and now New Zealand with my partner Alice. We have had plenty of time on our hands to focus soley on our internet business’s and strengthen our knowlegde from experimenting,testing, brain storming, thinking and as a result learning more great stuff each day. I have even been such a great advocate for the industry that Alice now has 7 domain names of her own and she is busy developing them.

Great Wall of China
We have had success to date with our websites and continue to test different methods out to make more money online with them and its been just over 1.5 year now that we have done domains and websites full time.
I have an interest in making the most out of YOUR website, Wordpress, website development, SEO, Mini sites/ Domain development, domain names and social networks/marketing.
At the moment, my current plan with this blog is to use it like an online diary, blog what I have learnt for my own easy to find reference. If it gets traffic it will get traffic. But I guess, it is getting traffic as you are reading this page today? Well take a seat and welcome to my blog. :)

Its amazing what i have stummbled upon on twitter! Hi guys I hope the trip is going well and having toured NZ many times I could share some tales and places to see, but firstly about myself.. I have been a computer enthusiast since my first apple 2e , mostly business related and have a very busy family wine retail company Glengarry. Social networking and its use to spread the word about what we do and attract wine lovers is my real interest at the moment. I dont have a blog and need one! I also need to look at how it all fits together, a bit like yourselves I think. Some exciting times ahead for sure.
tonight Im looking at cotweet to see how a group of us can collaborate on twitter from Glengarry.I will post some more questions and look forward to following you. JAK

Cold down here in the South Island Jak! Everything is good thanks.
Site looks good and ranks in Google okay. Newsletter signup very important but could do a pop-up and trial that if it increases conversions. Have you used google adwords at all?
Are you continually working on seo for the site? Just looking at the term “buy wine online” in google. It wants to be at the top for this term and other similar terms. Too many questions I know.
Thanks for visiting.
@Glenn
Thanks for the comment.
@Jak
Looking again at your site. The text near your photo which says “Visit my blog” the link should open in a new window so you don’t loose customers from potentially buying your wine.
