Getting off the ground

Although this website is still new, fresh, unspoilt and even sort of virginal, it’s clearly gaining speed and getting off the ground – making its webmaster’s life a joy! I spend so much time pottering about with it that I’m even identifying myself with my computer: as you can see in the picture my head has turned into a monitor. My wife Caroline insists that it’s an improvement, by the way.

I’ve been making websites since 1998, which I took a step further in 2006 by becoming an internet marketer, after having been an internet buyer for several years. This enables me to look at the online trading game from both positions, between which I noticed a truly monumental information gap. There is an enormous amount of info, e-books, websites and software about selling, but very little about buying on the internet. It was relatively easy to become pretty good at the marketing part (I just sold three Eiffel Towers and a couple of Hoover Dams), but it took me a lot more time to become a clever buyer.

Although still being screwed every now and then (one of those Eiffel Towers was initially bought by myself!), I make it harder and harder for the crooks to pull the wool over my eyes. Being the generous guy my late parents used to think I am, I decided to share some of my profound buyer’s wisdoms with
you here. May it help you buy cheaply and safely, while avoiding the many pitfalls in this jungle we call the internet.
