I found it fascinating that genealogytoday.com has released a database that focuses on more than the names, dates and places. Here’s the press release. Seems to be in line with FamilyLearn’s Mission.

Internet Marketing Class Back Home
Filed Under Business Ideas, Resources, Principles, etc., Education and Love for Learning, Search Engine Marketing
I’m returning to Burley, Idaho to teach an Internet Marketing Class to interested students and parents from my Alma Mater, American Heritage Academy. I feel like it’s a wonderful opportunity to give back to the community. Sometimes I look at my home community and think, “they’ve only ever known agriculture and the farms are consolidating and even dissappearing.”
There is so much opportunity in our world and, though I haven’t mastered things on the Internet by any means myself, I think I can open their eyes at home to whole new possibilitiles. It’s the least I can do after others have openned my eyes for me.
I’ll either record my notes here or set up an ATutor system to teach the course.

Wow, I found another Neal with a blog. His name is the same as mine. I guess I’m not the first. Good for him.

The Need To Preserve Family History in a safe place
Filed Under Genealogy to Family History to FamilyLearn
A lady in Redding, California lost 7 years of family history work. Very sad. She’s 81 and can’t recreate what she has done. I can see why folks want to preserve their family history in a safe place. This is why John’s advocates using FamilyLearn as a place to preserve genealogy and family history records.

Internet Commerce Kit
Filed Under Business Ideas, Resources, Principles, etc., Search Engine Marketing
I didn’t write this, John did when I missed our Internet marketing class. There are a ton of good links here and I want to record it.
Internet Success Kit
John from BackcountryStore.com spoke at Paul Allens e-business class at UVSC. He was amazing. He spoke about how to make money on the internet and about how very few people realize how cheap and easy it is to do. He gave us a piece of paper on it with a bunch of links that he called a "Kit", or, a recipe for creating a successful business online. Actually, what it is is a bunch of websites that are tools and reference points for setting up a successful business. I liked what he said so much that I’m posting it.
Here’s what he had on the paper:
"Poor people have expenses
Middle class people have liabilities they call assets
Rich people have income producing assets that pay for their liabilities"
-Robert T. Kiyosaki
Paraphrased from Rich Dad, Poor Dad
(I happen to be a huge fan of Rich Dad, Poor Dad)

FamilyLearn – Moving Up
Filed Under Search Engine Marketing
Our efforts to optomize FamilyLearn are finally paying off. Though Google still seems to be settling their results for the month, it looks like we moved up to a pagerank of 6. John and I are so excited about this. All of our other sites are moving up as a result because I placed a link on the FamilyLearn home page to the FamilyLearn Management page which has links to www.utahrealestate-1st-time.com, www.albionvillage.com, www.jonasfam.com and more. They all went up as a result. I think FamilyLearn’s jump occurred because of the sitemap and a link from each inner page back to the home page. In addition, we did the 301 redirect from www.familylearn.org to www.familylearn.com and captured all those links. Finally, we picked up some more links. Plus the interconnection of all the sites must help in some way. It’s legitimate link building. This is great.
