David Airey, a fine Graphic Designer from Scotland recently had his domain stolen from under his nose. Now if you go to DavidAirey.com all you will find is a sponsored link page instead of the great blog he’s been building for quite some time now. Watch this space for a new link to his blog, so that we can continue to read his observations – inspiring all.
They may have stolen his domain but not his brand, which I believe will emerge even stronger once this ordeal has been put to bed.
All the best David in the New Year,
Ed
It’s funny how ordeals like this often strengthen our ties to these people. Maybe it’s got something to do with empathy.
I hope for David’s sake that he’s kept some backups. He’s posted a lot of quality content and it’d be a pain for him to manually strip his content off Google/Yahoo/MSN cache ever so slowly.
Hi Ed,
Thanks so much for helping to spread the word!
It’s a pain, but you’re right that these things can make you stronger. I’m certainly learning valuable lessons.
Rob, your sentiments are also very much appreciated.
Thank you both!

This wouldn’t be an ad would it Jesni?
Hello Rob,
This story sort of contradicts the fact that you list a know link spammer CresceNet in your ‘recommended links’ (unless you have a second house in Brazil or so).
Aw, this was an extremely good post. Taking the time and actual effort to make a top notch article… but what can I say… I hesitate a lot and don’t manage to get nearly anything done.
Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess
I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to
everything. Do you have any points for rookie blog writers?
I’d definitely appreciate it.
Thanks for the compliment. I can’t explain why your first comment didn’t appear.
Blogging can be rewarding. I’ve gotten great leads, met new friends, and have landed some nice publicity. I would have to say to keep up consistency in posting. Also to gain wider audiences write for other blogs with greater audiences to help draw them back to you. I also write for “smalllbusnessbranding.com, smallbizclub.com and a new one meincmagazine.com”
Try to include pictures with every post. I think everybody has a hard time looking for content. I’m always taking notes to inspire. I enjoy guest writers and sometimes I send out 5 questions to a favorite author or blogger to make up an interview. Also going on other blogs and leaving comments draws audience back to you. Blogging and email marketing are my two favorite plaforms for promoting myself.
Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your content seem to be running off the screen in Ie.
I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to
let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the issue
fixed soon. Cheers
Thanks for the heads up. Can’t imagine what’s causing it.
Sweet blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News.
Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!
Appreciate it
I don’t have the slightest idea Maryanne. I don’t know how I got there.

Hi! This is my first visit to your blog! We are a group of volunteers and starting a new project in a community in the same niche.
Your blog provided us useful information to work on.
You have done a wonderful job!
Thanks for dropping by. I’m glad you discovered some information that was of value. I hope you’ll return often.
This design is spectacular! You certainly know how to keep a reader amused.
Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start
my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Fantastic job. I really loved what you
had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
Thanks for the kind words. I’m glad I almost moved you 🙂
Hello there! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog
platform are you using for this website? I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve had issues with
hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform.
I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
I use WordPress. I moved over from blogger. I’ve had no issues from WordPress.
My brother recommended I might like this web site. He was totally right.
This post truly made my day. You cann’t imagine just how much time
I had spent for this info! Thanks!
That is really fascinating, You are a very professional blogger.
I have joined your rss feed and sit up for searching for more of
your wonderful post. Additionally, I have shared your web site in my social networks
Thank you to you and your brother. I’ve been blogging for over eight years now. I’m glad you’ve found something useful.
