Here’s a bench I fell in love with… (photo by me: early october, 2009)
And a post I fell in love with by The Mogul Mom about an hour ago…Tim Ferriss’s 3 Simple Blog Tips That Have Big Impact.
Mogul Mom quotes Tim, “Why should [your readers] subscribe to your blog posts, newsletter or free ebook? What do you offer them? Exclusive products? Advance notice of sales? Discounts? Free shipping? Fresh content they can’t find anywhere else?”
This so inspires me to revamp my Suscribe Page to reflect the WHY of subscribing here. And maybe you can help me with it!
Is “Ye Olde Jannie Funster Blog” subscription-worthy? And if so, why?? Please share any ideas you have, however nutty they may seem. Don’t be shy — just let them fly. We’re all friends here.
And whichever ideas I use from your comments, I will credit you for — and link you up FOREVER on my Subscribe page!
Whoo-hoo!!!
(I could use some help with my still-lame About Page too, but I guess that can wait for another day.) 🙂
So…?

Do you have fleas you can’t get rid of?
Nothing but bread crusts twice daily?
A board bed? One thin blanket?
Neither do I!! So let’s dance.
And write letters. And sing songs.
And fling our love to the stars!
(The alternate last line is, of course,
And fling our “bras” to the stars!)

One by one the guests
stagger from the stars
into my comment box,
some bundled up in
garlands of little birds
laughing and dancing,
some robed in oceans
of late summer sunset.
Others in sepia scenes.
Some wear hats made
of rainbows, and socks
knit from lilies and lace.
Some smell like lilacs.
Some smell like lemons.
Some smell like the light
of the newlywed moon.
Two or three smell like
full length leather coats
not worn since 1975.
Some carry trays packed
with pies and maps and
freshly baked dreams.
Some carry only a rose.
Some flounce in early
with explosions of lupines
dripping from their hair,
to sway by the fire, then
float through the crowd and
slip out my music-room door.
Some limp in after midnight
soaked in beer, to swirl into
my heart and my soul and my
coffee mornings forever.
Others drift away in the fog.
But whoever the sweeties
— from whatever planet,
the more the merrier here!
— The End 🙂

Imagine if you woke up tomorrow and your blog was gone. Totally gone. Forever.
How much would you pay to recover your site? $500.00? $1000.00? Thousands? A LOT more thousands?
I’d probably pay at least several hundred bucks to get all my precious bra-flinging tales and your wonderful comments back. And all the contact information contained within my blog — lost? Devastation.
Hey, don’t believe a malicious hacker would ever try to get into your blog? Think again. A site attacker does his evil deeds…
- Because he can.
- Because it’s there.
- Because it’s thrilling.
- Because it’s a challenge.
- Because he thinks it’s fun.
- Because he can brag about it.
- Because he’s training for bigger attacks.
- Because he doesn’t like you or what you stand for.
But blog invasion can be prevented in the first place!
Today one of our own, and a really good guy — John Hoff — is launching his “WordPress Defender” Blog Security E-Book with its companion 1.5 hours of video on how to implement many of the security features. There’s even a bonus — an affiliate program through E-Junkie to earn “WordPress Defender” owners a 40% commission. Cool, eh?!
John learned the hard way from his wife’s site vanishing that he never ever wanted himself or another person to go through the agony and the fury of a hacked site. So he poured his heart and soul into writing this 150 page book and producing the videos.
How would you feel if you could be 100% confident that no spammer or hacker could attack your blog – EVER? John Hoff’s “WordPress Defender” blog security package will put your mind at ease.
“WordPress Defender” gives you 30 security strategies you can implement today to fight back, defend and protect your blog from malicious hackers out to destroy what you worked so hard to build.
Some of you may already know John through his WP blog, or from his WP Blog Host site. Follow him on Twitter here. John is a good guy. 
You can’t go wrong with his program.
What you’ll glean is GOLD. And easy to use. And at $39.00 it’s a gift.
Most of us put off blog security. I know I did. Don’t YOU put it off, PLEASE!!
Any questions you may have — I’m sure John will be happy to speak to directly in the comments.
