Frankly, there are so many communities out there and so few of them are worth any mention let alone subscribing to . . . and then there are those very few that are actually interesting.
The latest community that we have been excited about is the Website Development Community provided by the v7network.
I have to admit that I’ve always regarded online forums as nothing much more than locations to mine information from altruistic folks who have taken the time to post solutions to problems I need to solve at best or a total waste of my time at worst.
However, a new forum has just come along — started by Michael Kane — that I have just fallen for “hook, line, and sinker” . . . . www.WebsiteGuru.com
This forum got started so quickly and with such a great community of folks, that I’ve invested a good deal of time becoming a valuable memeber of it ( look for Sean@WMS ).
To quote my friend Cricket:
It is a brand-new forum, filled with the best of the best. This place is gonna rock because there are so many members and website gurus there who truly have a clue about how to run an Internet business and make money online.

I highly encourage you to register with WebsiteGuru.com, introduce yourself, and start asking questions. There are both a large number of some of the Web’s most brilliant folks and a very large and growing number of other business owners.
And to take a page from Dan Kennedy’s book — one of the best ways to find innovative avenues for success in your business is to see what is working in other business models and translate that to your own business.
I have considered many times over the past few years whether to start a forum for online business owners and web merchants to share their ideas and just kept putting it off . . . . But now there’s a forum that is much better than I could have imagined creating.
Looking forward to seeing your there.
