Frances Palaschuk’s Summary

I started my virtual assistant business in October 2007. Since that time I have been using my WordPress blog site to promote and market my business as well as sites that I find of great value.

I have always had a passion for web design so it was natural for me to adapt so well to using WordPress. Today, I am able to setup an entire customized WordPress site. Not only that, I have become an avid fan of everything Google. I use Google Apps, Google Webmaster Tools, Google Analytics, Google Maps – and I know how each application plays into one another for maximum results.

I remember the first post I made on the blog - it was as scary for me as public speaking is for most people. I was really nervous. Thankfully, it all worked out for me and I just love writing.

My audience is a mixture of people from virtual assistants, those looking for viable work from home options, those wanting to learn how to use WordPress, to some of my current and potential clients. I like to blog about new and relevant information and/or breakthroughs pertaining to blogging, social media and virtual assistance.

My passion for blogging has enabled me to focus my business on what I love doing - designing WordPress sites and blogs, hanging out in all the cool social media spots and of course, keeping up with everything Google!
