Having an active forum on the 4×4OffRoads.com web site has been a dream for many years - and is really a major step up for the site. It has taken a while to get it started but with your help it will grow and become extremely valuable for all 4 wheelers.
…And now it’s here! 4×4OffRoads Forums is made for you and will grow and adapt to your needs.
Begin by registering with your name and email and make your own private password. After you have registered I would like you to introduce yourself - where you come from and what your 4×4 is like and where you take it wheeling.
It is really important to get the right momentum early and I am counting on your help to make this forum the best 4×4 and off road forum available on the internet
I get such a load of questions through email that I am unable to answer because of lack of time and knowledge about particular brands etc. The forum will open new possibilities for you to get answers and share what you know.
Watching the forum grow will be exciting, interesting and hopefully fun also
The forum is a standard PHPBB version 3 forum. Even though I know a thing or two about programming and setting up software - I used www.rentacoder.com to find a programmer to adapt the look and feel.
Three dimensional digitally rendered pictures have always been fascinating for me. One program I used for testing was Pow-Ray. A ray tracing software where every object is defined with numbers and the same goes for the lighting and the camera location.
This movie uses Pow-Ray and Ultrafractal to make a full length movie based only on math and digital technology.
My Diet Program has gone through a few revisions during the time it has been online. Last update was a BANS store installation with a number of diet articles.
Now I have taken the articles and added them to the blog part as well as added articles from real people that are having success with their diet methods.
Technologically the site is now BOTH a Build A Niche Store as well as a WordPress blog. The cool thing is that both versions look alike and the sidebars are customizable through the WordPress admin interface.
They are the modern version of the old magnifying glass in the sun trick. This time the sunlight is collected from a lot larger area and the result is HUGE. Check out these videos and see for yourself what it can be used for.

The Lobster House soup is a really tasty treat from the ocean. Use it before the main course for extra special occasions. It takes some work but is well worth the trouble. It tastes really delicious and is great with white wine.
Jack Feka - a fellow SBIer I got to know on board the Freedom - is just starting a site with shrimp recipes. As shrimp and lobster have similar methods of cooking I sent him the recipe replacing lobster with shrimp
This is one of the best eBooks about turning your knowledge into something you can sell as an eBook on the internet. In fact I paid almost $50 for it! - And it was worth it
You might ask: “Why do I need to write my own eBook?”
Because selling your knowledge as an eBook is what many consider to be one of the best ways to make great money online. In addition after you have written your own book you establish more credibility and you will in fact become an authority in your subject.
“But how do I go about doing that?”
Lets say you have been collecting stamps from childhood. You know all about the most valuable stamps, misprints and rare countries. Or like me where I took my knowledge and love for 4 wheeling and love for the great outdoors to create the eBook: 4×4 Off Roads.
Some of the major advantages of having your own eBook:
Readers get their book immediately as a download to their PC.
eBooks are easy to update with new knowledge.
No shipping.
Low cost per unit ( how does “zero” sound - anyone? )
The book contains information about:
How to find profitable ideas
How to package your e-book
How to write for an e-book
How to price your e-book
How to market your e-book
I HIGHLY recommend that you pick up your copy ( did I mention it is free? ) and use it to make your own profitable eBook.
Well - you shouldn’t believe anything you see on TV but this is just amazing. I knew this blog is getting a LOT of exposure but this is kind of getting out of hand…

Being a webmaster of your own sites can be daunting. You actually have to DO most of the work yourself or find someone else who can do it for you. Some tasks are easier to do using the right software and some are easier using a service.
Using Amazon Mechanical Turk is one of the more brilliant ways to outsource. Of course you have to think about tasks that are easy and quick to work on but still need human intelligence. After funding your account, you create Human Intelligence Tasks (HITs for short) and submit them to the Mechanical Turk. After a surprisingly short time you get results coming in from workers around the globe.
I am just starting to experiment with the possibilities but already find this extremely useful.
Example - using the Advanced HIT tool:
Title: Do You LOVE your Digital Camera?
Description: Give us your quick view on it.
