The Vision and Future - Proud to be the first for Spotlight On!

[vicdigi]

Hi folks,

Some of you here know me and some not so let me introduce myself.

The name is Vic, I work for an international law firm (position withheld!!!) and have a long term vision of what I am trying to achieve for my personal business outside of my normal every day job.

Our main website is UK One Way Links (SEOMOZ page strength 5.5) and rated No.10 at Directory Rate.

In times gone by we have spent lots on getting this site listed in many directories and advertising on various sites. But no more.

On building many links to our site we decided enough was enough and sort several directories that would in turn link to our sites, make sales/revenue and, drive the all important traffic to our websites.

That aside, earlier this year I took down 100 websites and started concentrating on the ones that had good working scripts that could allow us to operate our sites far easier and make money quicker and also allow us to adding content to our sites easier.

In creating more directories, I felt there was a need to have a backup site that would help in making sales for our directories so, under at construction and coming along nicely is, and I guess I am lucky to have snapped up this domain several years ago - onewaylinks.co.uk. See the site in it construction at ( my name continued by) christod .co.uk) - please do not make this link live!!!! Note: all sites listed on the left under UK Web Directories and Zonelet Friends belong to us - Us being myself and me wifee.

Our next phase - is to relaunch My Travel Directory (we have the design ready and waiting). This site will be operated with a blog front end and a phpld directory built in with the possibility of adding a forum for all Worldwide travel, car hire, holidays, hotels and travel news and advice.

The next stage after this is to launch our hotel review website (we have the design ready and waiting) - hopefully some time later on in the year!

All of the above has a sole purpose - to eventually lead to, when the revenue has been earned, to build a unique Worldwide hotel booking website to rival all the big players that are currently out there. Some way off yet but the vision is becoming clearer everyday on how I want to build our group of websites leading to the big one.

So, to wrap things up - what with having a permanent job outside of being a webmaster, I absolutely love this and hope that one day the earnings will increase, business will be booming and I'll head on to the biggie

Best of luck with your websites - i'm sure you will continue to do well.

I didn't know you work for a law firm, so have learnt something new about you

Not sure abot learning a different thing about myself but certainly I learn a different thing almost every day - they all count as valuable lessons. Some more valuable than others.

So when did you first step into the online world? i.e becoming a webmaster

I launched my first 3 years ago on 30 April at 6.30am after working all night adding the finishing touches.

Prior to that I took a course for html about 4 years ago at a small computer college on Oxford Street.

Travel was alway my thing so decided to try my hand at a travel website which led to My Travel Directory being launched.

Now I am looking forward to relaunching this site.
