Turning On The Power Of Good

Turning on the power of good!

Turning on the power of good!

3 Million Hits Are Predicted In March 2013 For THE GOOD WORD!

THE GOOD WORD is poised for an explosion of goodness.  1 year in the making, THE GOOD WORD was registered in April of 2012, it was an after thought to GreenFest.  ”We simply needed a playbill for the concert and it evolved from there”, said publisher Steve Schappert.  Traffic started very slowly as the site took shape for the concert usually 5 views a day up until July when we printed the playbill.  We received 360 views at our peak  on July 24th.

“Plagued with setbacks, the site out grew WordPress.com in September as we started using 3rd party advertisers, which began the slow, painful migration to Bluehost.com   traffic started to increase, problems would arise and knock us back down, but we kept moving forward” said Schappert.

Persistence: Schappert has 16 years of web development experience and he just kept kicking it until it worked.  This past week all server issues have been addressed and the site sits on it’s own server, previously it had been sharing a server with 32 other of Schappert’s sites.  ”We are ready for take off! After a year of playing with a basic idea THE GOOD WORD is now ready to take the global stage as a major force in the battle between good and evil“, said Schappert.   You become what you think of and THE GOOD WORD will promote the good things people do to be successful while helping other people and the planet.

How do the numbers look?  In the last 5 days we received 66,456 hits  that tracks at about 400,000 hits a month.  There are 2 reasons for the anticipated surge:

#1 Quality Content: Each visitor visits our site 2.3 times a day, and views 8.46 pages for an average of 15 hits per person.   While the majority stop in for 30 seconds or less to view a quote or short story an amazing 7.5% of our visitors spend over an hour on THE GOOD WORD.  11.6% of the visitors to THE GOOD WORD spend between 5 minutes to an hour on the site.

#2 Contracts:  Now that the server has stabilized and the navigation menu has been redesigned to reflect the top 15 search items on the web, Schappert says, “it is time to turn up the volume”  Schappert has purchased traffic packages that will increase the traffic to five times its current level or 10,000 visitors in the next 7 days.  The Month of March will see another five fold increase bringing the traffic to 3 million hits a month from average of 200,00 vistitors   That’s alot of good!

Where are they coming from?  THE GOOD WORD has a fan base in 69 countries registering views from The United States, Japan, Ireland, Slovenia, Ukraine, Great Britain, France, Russian Federation, China, Germany, Poland, Sweden, Estonia, Israel, Canada, India, Turkey, Mexico, Netherlands, Lithuania, Spain, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Australia, Romania, United Arab Emirates, Bulgaria, Hong Kong, Brazil, Greece, Italy, Hungary, Luxembourg, Venezuela, Georgia, Philippines, Indonesia, Belgium, Singapore, Portugal, Denmark, Jamaica, European country, Tanzania, Moldova, Pakistan, Uganda, Costa Rica, Albania, Uzbekistan, South Africa, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Thailand, Iran, Chile, and Vietnam.

The Fine Art of Giving A Shit

by

0

fine art of giving a shitIf you gave a shit, you would have less shit in your life.

If you give a shit on a continuous basis, just a little each day, you will have alot less shit in your life.  Makes sense doesn’t it?   Now imagine others noticing how much happier you were and asking, “what is different about you?”  You could turn to them and say with a big smile, “I decided to start giving a shit!”

What if just a few smiled, laughed and thought it was a good idea.  They would want to give it a try, wouldn’t they? I mean how simple and therapeutic is it, give a shit and be happy.  Go ahead say it out loud, “I give a shit!” now post it, “I give shit!”  Don’t be afraid, anyone that is old enough to read or understand speech for that matter, has heard “that kind of language”  and frankly the admiration you will generate for giving a shit, will far exceed the abuse you will take for using the word shit in public.

What if giving a shit caught on? T-shirts that say, “I give a  shit”, college classes called “Giving A Shit” would fill up fast!  A new  philosophy would spread wide and far and would mix love, empathy and inspiration with a giant sense of humor…hmmm there should probably be memorial to George Carlin lol!

Giving a shit starts with not giving a shit…ahhhh now we are getting into some deep shit.  Giving  a shit begins with you, being who you are and being happy. When the plane starts to go down, you put the mask on yourself first and then help others.  Does it sound like we are sending mixed signals now?  Let me break it down for you, live by example, be the change, be the ball, just be HAPPY damn it!  Now, go help others do the same.

Well, there is the thought of the day!  Try giving  a shit, 20 years from now you will laugh about the shit in your life, so why wait, start today.  For the record, THE GOOD WORD gives a shit, but we are NOT all uptight, we are human, we stumble, we fall and we get back up again. If the language offends you I do apologize because that was not my intention, I do however, reserve the right to laugh at and with you : )  I mean honestly, I could have written an article on caring, but a lot less people would care enough to read it lol!  We are passionate, caring and not above swearing to show we give a damn!

Love more, laugh lots and have a great day!

Spreading Goodness

by

0

Life has certainly had its ups and downs over the years. One quote has guided me, “You become what you think about”  Having to recreate myself after the market crash I figured why not keep it simple, I’ll think about good stuff.

The GOOD WORD was born.  Gramps used to ask, “what’s the Good Word?”, Uncle Jim taught me that  people buy from you because they like you and my father taught me everything else about helping others and doing the right thing.

More than ever the world needs GOOD.  I am one but I am hoping the concept catches on. This year, I am asking for your help to simply spread the good word.  THE GOOD WORD  is a multimedia publication that helps people share the good things they do to help others and succeed in business.  Most publications promote tragedy and despair, we offer a breath of fresh air.

There are many ways to promote goodness in the world.  You can make a difference by simply sharing, you can find us on Facebook,  LinkedIn, Pinterest, Twitter, see a  complete list of our media accounts.  You can advertise with us,  You can submit articles about the good things your company does,  You can work with us  and well yeah, as a fledgling business we are also looking for funding to expand our mission of promoting good, green stuff and building The BIOS Center, (a Green Living Museum and our corporate home.)

May the new year embrace you and the ones you love.

Sincerely,
Steve Schappert
