No Data, No Presence In Sight (Insight), So Had To Block You Boo

via (giphy)

Sometimes when you are not getting supported but copied, you learn not to share it all even if you been saying it in a blog, in content you have been sharing for years or reaching out to some telling straight up what is what.

See, some just hate on you behind your back and still befriend you to take from you. When you see this re-positioning, you must protect. This may mean some you are cool with need to be blocked. Not because you do not trust them, you just do not trust their cameo loving colleague. Some do not want to be associated with those who front like they know just to watch what you do. I find it not fair if one does something to fund their initiatives for a phony to come in and hurt those efforts. Too many came in and still see what? "No Data for you (In My Cookie Monster Voice).” Why is that if you know what you are doing the past over three years nothing? This one person I refer to knows who they are. Remember the blogs you tried to point my way still not picked up? I saw this person making cameos, I had to bounce after informing the party I had to leave alone. I cannot stand that aspect of a start-up when many conspire to "Try It" but you have the last laugh for now. Sweet is the vengeance you had nothing to do with. Do not claim things you cannot prove outside the bubble. Just don't. Any who, I am off to bed soon or not. Always an email or inbox right at the moment I want to log off. Or I am so into seeing how some things online are faring just to brainstorm during insomnia sessions how to factor them in. My mind races and just a must to let it. So I am finally able to spread my wings and branch out even more. Residual income is the goal to support initiatives and the youth who need it. ‪#‎Zoepreneurs ‪#‎ButThatIsNoneOfMyBusiness ‪#‎KermitMemesSeriousThough ‪#‎Twisted

Train The Web, After It Trains You

“Train the web”, a phrase I love to say that I gather throws many off. Yet, this phrase alone could mean doing one hundred things in one day. Real talk, it is a very daunting matter that many keep making worst as they go it alone without practicing Search Engine Optimization (SEO), the research many care not to is so important. Learn how your industry operates online and see what you are doing or not focusing on. If you do not get it, then that means many who do not have it (Money) like that, should then sit out till you do get it.

All one, not serious is doing for the most part is making sure those out there who can remedy their online presence dilemma will charge them more to do so. It will take time to correct and the average cost for a specialist is around $20 to $30 an hour. The going rate hourly is how some come up with their quotes by estimation of how long it will take to correct. This is something I do. I went by what the hourly rate was for freelance website builders and employers in my states hourly wages for the work. Those who have their strategies cut down to an efficient manner, make more. If it takes five working hours, plus cost of domain registry, website hosting and other costs in association with completion of a job to build a website then combining then draws up a number to give.

The tricky situation is going with someone who just does not only provide aesthetic help, but also knows where the brand went wrong in the first place. This needs to be understood well. Thus why many who are honest will tell a business owner they need to do more than what they came to them for. I for one now have learned not to take the job. Just my personal experience shows results and better working conditions with a client who did their research and continues to stay on top of SEO practices. No time for the headache when many do not care to educate why one thing or the other is done or not done. One faults you for not keeping their platform consistent, while their content creation is lacking. They are not paying you for content creation either so your time to find content on the web for them to share is now doubled. Week two passes still stalled on content but wants a superb job done with nothing. Their team who is supposed to get to you with information or collaborate on campaign strategy is not adhering to the recommendations. So the work is further plagued with set backs none on the other end are aware of, but you and the business owner. The user just notices not much going on with your clients page or website. Not worth it. Best to work for those brands who understand the terrain. 

Understand why something said would be done is no longer the case after their very capable specialist is awaken to a notification message on phone of update changes. Now to go in and mitigate any possible snags if any. Then re-work the whole strategy, may have to go into queued information and change text or image information presented if citing. Just so much can go one way or another. This alone would have constant calls to a client, "Okay, what was to roll out cannot since much in the practices used and queued a few weeks ago or days ago need to be tweaked." The ideal client: "Okay, thanks for the heads up, appreciate the hard work." Many of my clients are like this. Yet, some can be a bit unknowingly irrational for how online matters really are. The non-ideal client: "What is it I am paying you for? Why can't the post already set to roll out go as scheduled? Why did you post that current event (yeah the one that ties in associations)? I do not like the same tweet everyday. Can you change it?" While you take the time in another window out of six or more open at once to message while correcting. Wasting precious time that could have been added to correcting. Just these reasons alone for me personally have me work for short term projects and long term maintenance accounts most. I take on what I can handle and find more can be done with a client who came already with some knowledge or eager to learn. 

With countless video and your own countless attempts with some will have one a bit bothered by some questions. After an email, video inboxed or links to articles breaking down what you are doing for them and many still do not pay mind to them. Yet, they will make assumptions and some even berate you when they feel. I find I do not do well with this and why I hired customer care professionals who are training now. This for me is madness because when I first went for the same services I now provide and assist many youth with, it was hard to grasp. I went into researching and then implementing what was taught online. Then by doing it for my brand I learned so much. Also being somewhat of a perfectionist enthusiast, I went in as in “Ham” on the back end. Still use many website building companies who also host many of my brand(s) websites and through my own efforts with consistent behavior in key areas I could afford to maintain did well. So I got very good at what it was HAY Online was about in the first place, to make sure the youth succeed in all they do. What better way than making sure an entrepreneurial youth has an ace in their corner willing to even step in and do the extra they uniquely need.

I am always staying on top of trends as it pertains to Search Engine Optimization because this is an area I notice many in the community I service have played with in my opinion. Too many, even webmasters and developers I notice do many things the most basic principle in SEO would tell one never to. Link structure issues, website flow issues, and so much more. One thing for sure, I learn a lot from doing that have my clients doing way better. My “thing” is organic traffic generation, online presence monitoring with maintenance and website design restructuring. I love setting clients online presence up from start to maintenance. One is never done with all the changes many platforms make in response to big “Daddy” Google.  When updates roll out, I am well aware and now know how to remedy situations for those who are dealing with the same dilemmas I have or continue to. The knowing why an issue arose is best to understand well how to go about fixing it. Gradually remedy the situation and make sure all that “Daddy” say is what it is. Learn as you go and stay on top of new updates about the updates. 

Like in college all taught from freshman year to senior year expounds on the previous lessons learned before for a set major. So repetitive like, one paying attention, studying every possible angle will get it eventually and master it. That is how one should go about learning Search Engine Optimization. Learn the basics, apply them and move on to the next level of learning. This is when many realize the hell they put the last few online enthusiasts they never gave content to all at once through. Never understood why being asked how often they did an event or would have a project to share. So much information and closely updated about current events is greatly needed and appreciated. All these things help draw inferences and allows one to creatively come up with unique messages, posts of images and edited video that tie in the message of the campaign. The matter of online promotion and marketing still ties in the fundamentals of the conventional manner still a brand should go with. The only thing in today’s world of online everything, one needs to hire someone who has a good, firm knowledge of online practices all around. Knowing code also does not hurt. Have a productive day! I know I will. 

Fellowship, Grateful For the Difficulties That Mold Me

A great feeling when around someone who is fighting as hard as you are for better. Not all come with the "Golden Goose" of solutions or saviors as in those looking out for one another. Understanding where one is coming from is key and if one feels the worth to go it together why not? We all have our strength for a reason and sometimes it is to just always be there. It reminds me of a woman who once told me to stop crying over always being there for others more than they are for you. She said, "You are still hear and maybe your purpose is to deal with the difficult. Just keep helping and in return it will help you." 

Yet, at that time over ten years ago I was homeless, a thing that is common for me due to my own actions. Not to say they are malicious, but towards my well-being they were. I would look out for others even when I knew it was my last and I would have to go to another for a hand out. Understanding this and realizing a change needed to be made brings me to where I am right now. In the same boat for other reasons but same outcome. Broke and homeless. 

Well, I have a home due to circumstance and to see all the love from people whose only connection is my son and his father, was at first hurtful for realizations I never wanted to accept. Mostly because of pride and still caring how my family who always find room to talk about me, yet never really talk to me would have more to say. I find that yes I am very angry with them. I will always be until the elephants in the room a skirted out. As I have on many occasions confronted many with heart racing not knowing what tongue lashing I would open up to and do, they rather be afraid of the wrath they are accomplices to. 

Nothing will ever be made right if congregations about my well-being and mostly downfall are topics of conversation I am privy to after the fact and yet no one have the balls without judgement to confront. A sibling tried and went about it all wrong. In this public back and forth since I can cut up in the house but for good old "Tet Cho" Nancy she gets it live and in public for more unwarranted scrutiny am belittled by a person who was too young at time all was boiling and festering to understand. To understand why I left home at 17 bare-foot walking to my then Pastors home a few blocks away. Thankful for a sibling who from birth has always seen and understood me. She made it clear the approach to me after knowing I am talked about but never addressed was not a good look. I got slammed on and told why I was a failure, I watched my father protect and shield this sibling something he never did for me, and I was the one publicly humiliated for any neighbor to hear and see. 

So when I am there for someone who is in the same boat, I just look at the lack of this same vigilant unconditional support I do not get from many in my own family. Not all are this way and even the one giving the lashing I forgave the moment the words that hurt so much came out their mouth. I just knew if they knew the full story I never divulged to them because of tender age when so much was going on they too would understand like their older sibling who seems to be the only one who truly gets me and without judgement or malice. She shows me unconditional love no matter how many times I fall. So really wish sometimes people would stop criticizing and just sit and reflect on their own watched actions when they are toting their beliefs while doing exactly the opposite of a man many love to reference name, Jesus. 

I will be there even when it hurts because I take my "Suffrage" badge with honor now to know it hurts and yet feels good to now accept why I must. We all have our purpose and mine is just to always be reachable for those who need to see that one can keep being slammed over and over but never give up as they choose to. Go through it, take time off, but as long as there is breathe there is room to fix anything. Just some days are more lonely and harder than others and find it is now okay to revel in them. Just never let the bad thoughts control the good. Find those things, rituals that pull you out and wean off those who encourage limiting behavior no matter if they are the only one giving you attention. 

Just my thoughts as I finished mopping the floor. Just be you and find you how ever it works for you while taking advice that fits your whole truth. Knowing thy self also comes with knowing not all advice is good advice even if it sounds good. 

Never Hurt Yourself Helping Others

Sometimes one can sense another's unspoken disdain. When you feel you are being a broken record, always venting the same bull you honestly keep going through, you stop talking. Stop talking to the same people. I find this writing as a release for me on here as my diary always was. The need to really show many who are wayward as I once was, that there is a brighter outcome. Just some do not get that handed to them even after years of let downs self-inflicted or imposed by others. Some like I realize we go through it to better help another not to.

 A line I say to my younger siblings is, "You do not want to end up like me?" Not to say I am a bad person, just to show them what putting yourself last does to you. Never, be so helping, you help yourself into destitution. When there, that low point many times many things you would never do are presented to you. Thankful I never end up doing something I regret, but the things I have gone through help me see why so easy to succumb to the pressures some do.

The Overly Zealous Religious

Morning and so true. Sometimes my issue with overly zealous religious people is this. When they are slapped left and right it is fine for them to lose it as long as they mention their Lords name and I say "Their" for many reasons so do not ask or assume if one is not ready to receive the complicated answer. Any who, yet one who blatantly says they are not in the church again for their own reasons is said to be having issues with the devil. Well, news flash so was your overly zealous religious behind.

Everyone prays whether they admit it or not, it is what they define it as and prayer is not only a religious thing. Many get their panties in a bunch when a very outspoken person such as myself who really find cathartic relief in letting what I do allow out, out. No need to bottle it up. To me if many religious fanatics would take the stick up their behinds out and instead of prophetic with scriptures to back up disdain, just listen, reach out and touch the one you talk about or at.

The common thing I notice is everyone wants an audience and some just do not want to admit they too seek the same the other heathen they are referencing in a posts wants, a release of their frustrations. Wish the attention given to peep one’s going in would have many self-proclaimed religious individuals to inbox the person or post community where they gave them an outlet or just block them if so unbearable and not in sync with them. Everyone is a critique and no pun intended. Just some admit it and go in and care about their brother or sister without them having to come out and say it. Stop talking about what you do not understand and ask. I know I do if it is so pressing to me. But to go in with judgement without the facts is what gets me going in the first place. I may go in, but I also seek information as to the why whether it is a friend I notice them posting things that may signal distress or dis-ease. Some like me need to let it out and after my cancer scare that was caught in time was a wakeup call to me, stop holding the bullshit in. I am not dying just to appease a few who have no clue but say their Lords name as they judge wrong. Wish many would try that approach, I think that is what Jesus would do. Not sit there commenting on the perceived lost and leaving one still alone.‪#‎MyPiece

Positive Thoughts

Zoepreneurs Thoughts on Disassociations

The other day I had to block some, not for usual reasons, but for my own continued growth. Many tell you to learn to deal with people. Yet some I just do not care to know for things done to others. When you learn of some's character and ways about doing things, you make judgments and I who am one to agree we all do for one reason or another admit this always. Now what one does with it is up to them.

Doing what I do for a living, you learn that "Smoke in Mirrors" is real. You have many out here who do some nasty things to people and operate a predictable way that once those patterns are peeped again, you make a decision. Mine this time around was to just not see possible posts in my feed. I really genuinely love and respect all I partner with or that would never be the partnering. Yet I always tell all who are in the Haitian community heavy that I do not do the Haitian scene like that. I will go to events of those who I see are different until I see the foolishness that keeps those I cater to away. Yet the clique of the same individuals who go about things in a pre-historic singling out way is not for me. As if one wants you to beg. Not in me, I will inbox a collaboration. I will give suggestions to help one do better sharing online past Facebook all day. Yet to think I ever wanted to be elite, never. Those who really know me, know I am one who loves to just be comfortable. So why I choose to work how I do, at home in my blue robe most the day unless a client is coming over and I will slap on something to wear. Just me "Knowing Thy Self". If one is put off then fine and why I select who I truly work for since HAY Online was never meant to be big. Now the brands not fully shared on FB more than them having pages on it are the ones for many to sweat as competition. SMH

One can have their issues with me for being opinionated and that will never cease. If I let it be known from beginning I am not into the "Glitz and Glam" why some still have room to be a way? Being stand offish is fine and all have every right, but also let me know things have changed too. Many do not know what I deal with behind the scenes and I all to well understand many do not care. I do and that is why I do not go to events. If I am homeless i let that be known, not for one to look down on me, but to understand the ones I cater to with brilliant minds are in the same boat. Instead of exploiting them, help them be productive tax payers that when strong can turn around and support your business. Yet many want to keep crushing and beating one to the punch when the true movement of those I affiliate with as in demographic mates want a stronger economic black community. To many have egos and I purposely when sharing or going in initially did so private on FB so that my views would not be take as those of my company who shares all sides as the come through online sources that my demographic uses. Not Facebook alone. Many had to be separated from my Aquarius Dawn Nancy because they forget that millions are out here struggling and not representative of their immediate circle. So one wanting true exponential growth would cater to all not a few. That also means the messages that can be taken a way should be looked at. So while others worry about Haiti, I worry about bridging the gap with a specific sect of Haitian Americans like me who are born here and yet to go to Haiti for same reasons as me. We are broke and struggling. Someone has to make a sacrifice to make sure those behind are better equipped than they were or are. Many got me twisted, but that was a given and works to ones advantage. More than some thinking I am a naive, jaded chic mad cause she is perceived to be loosing when every day I gain more riches I could never had by the looks of how some feeling a way about my brand are doing or fluffing selves up to.

First off, never started my directory/entertainment/informative platforms to be going to social events. I see that no one in this community is compiling data on demographics other than the census skewed reports on a population more vast than online reports state. Have three more years of data collection from means I put together that looks at my target markets behavior online and in the streets. My website HAY Online is how I learn all I do by "Doing it Myself" and learning different builder platforms so to help those with little means stay a contender. Which ones of the website builders are good for the "Do it Yourselfer" and how to mitigate changes online that are not reflected with the designs and functions on some. The website builder sites too have to put up help tutorials to assist the few observant customers realizing things are different about layout. Many rely on my initial of many websites as a gauge of my abilities even after they are told not to. So you learn as you go about copycats and when in a Copy Cat community where those more connected yet lacking originality get an idea and run with it run supreme. My inboxing many no matter their perceived view of me as competition advice, like one snake I purposely was nice to and offered suggestion for his marketing and promotion team, to use Hoot Suite and still never used it. It is like you watch the games many play on the surface shows big time. Finding out the same crowd go to the same events and no exponential growth is not something I look to. Eating today the same amount is not for me or my vision that never dwell on this Haitian community more than to learn who is doing what to share and presenting well online in ways the youth I specifically state on my website find it outside of Facebook.

When the many changing IP's, migrating to WordPress, deleting pages and such finally stop, then I can index their websites. Just a person who knows to put their country analytic a way so their rank is determined differently is one who understands the numbers game many over look but want to be online. The following companies and doing research to see where else other than Facebook the event or initiative is shared tells much. The always seeing things not done on websites by many offering me help with mine makes me ask, "Are you serious?" So much is changing online with algorithms and many companies who assist in this area having to update too. Many are claiming things and yes it is nice to do hands on but how is it one who has no data on what they create for others is not properly vetted more than the clutter website presented a way? The numbers are everything and that is what I work to establish organically and when afforded go ham. I am so happy my company is getting the chance to really branch out into media. Started doing my portfolio on monitoring with screen shots that show it all as to what I really do that many still do not get. So as my business plan was always to be, I am positioning HAY Online to be that premiere spot for to find it all while getting help as an independent artist or talent of any sort. Partnering with companies who will provide the youth I help with affordable services to keep them relevant online. Making sure that those coming to me about their run-ins can truly be helped. Almost there and thankful for all the help and lessons as to why many do not still approach cause if I am also still dealing with what many complain to me about, it just tells me things still need to change before any "Gap" is bridged.

Yesterday I was given a blessing as I let go of a former one. I hope we can be friends, but to be colleagues when I am specifically looking for "That Approach" will have to just be "Out of Sight, Out of Mind" on that tip for now as I focus. Some really know how to manipulate but when the truth is seen, I am happy I will not be around. Some need to learn why and still do what it takes to get ahead. I like to sleep at night and have networked with so many that I would not change my MO for the world. I will not dress up when my office and goals are different. One has to address concerns they live with and strengthen their community while others can forget that they too once had no one before many became fans. Some like me go into things not for instant results when community support building is at hand, not show boating. Talking to many I no longer even consider colleagues, was never a situation of telling too much. I told exactly what I told many I still work with. Yet some's misunderstandings on why I wanted to partner was so off and it showed by how till now some things transpire. If you are petty to block me because I rightfully so say you do not represent all Haitian Americans, that is telling. Then after I learn because I use an account no other knew till this year when I started migrating people I have come to respect over that were met during my initial start-up, that was enough for me to say, "I am through." Yet to find out some go to those I work with luring with what they do is funny when I do not have issue with it. It is just the intent to all of a sudden see to do so with all whom I deal with, just like done with initial reason and person who opened my eyes to the MO. I knew I would deal with what I am and really only feel away since I will stand off those I once went to. They did not get why selective with way going about things because I listen to the concerns of those I am out to help who do not know about what many in the "Bubble" of Facebook only share there. I tried to show with tools used and places I researched none were till all of a sudden the one not ever seen, HAY Online, uses them. Yet, funny how many are not noticing that much one ignores is what is trending in how to do things. Now the web is a "Pay to Play" when all my efforts were started free and paid only for more reach. I focus on the psychology of the "Why's". If social media's popularity and why so is not of focus to others, it is to me. It gives great demographic insight when looking in all the right places. My one of many vents and so happy much is being done by many cleaning their online presence up. I for one am happy and when HAY starts to advertise bigger and better all under my new focus, HAY Online Media and HAY Online Radio. So I will do as many have me since I do not fit inline with what they are peddling, I will stay in my lane as they do theirs.

Just A Bit Tired Of The News Play On Haitian Public Relations World Wide Online

What does this love mean too many who sit and do not send letters to its President to show more solidarity to those who left for better being persecuted? Then many would not feel as if one rather be in leisure than on TV every chance they see the conversations online I do to quell the insults or at least show they notice the dissent into instigated war. The disrespect on both sides of the border is getting worst. Like the passive Haitian parent who just does not address the sibling rivalry that eventually cause a cut or bruise to the other sibling or both. War is being instigated not peace when common nationals on both sides are leading the online campaign of one message or the other for respective disgruntle countrymen. As we once offered all to come to perceived Haiti during slavery a message of we care should go out to Bahamas, DR, here and all over that we understand you left because of the corruption that has many hungry and poor, but we are defending your honor. I will say corruption because no matter who is running the country, much benefited is for personal gain too. I just do not get how one who made a certain income is now making more. Of course your status goes up, so does your value in all transactions that transpired during and after ones term in office. They do that here, can one imagine the aid given to the funds of a President backed organization and after office speaking engagements when term done? So for me I do not see this a bad thing. I see the strong holding on elections and how blatantly they peddle an escape goat. As my dad would say to me, "Ou pa kon boot bet ou.( You do not know your animal in lack of better translation and spelling)" This was true before, but those words got me looking at people and their behavior differently. Doing this focused observation of people and their behavior has been so helpful with what I do for a living now out of choice, not necessity. Looking at things and people like this gives time to look at demographic information and also observe trends potentially showing patterns that are useful. Getting back to the topic, much is no surprise based off my own observations and find it sad that my timeline gets misconstrued as angry rants. This is as one sibling I choose to not be in's presence would say. I just see it wrong and needs to be addressed the lack of compassion publicly shared. It is after some are saying to do something it gets done instead of showing instant reaction. Years even ago there should have been central focus on the relationship with the DR. In the beginning there was about immigration a year or so ago, then that quelled. Then these rumors I took them as until I saw YouTube video of the abuses and lynching’s in DR was sad with maddening. I would expect with all I myself must do to piece information together since depending on circles, information is skewed to represent what that faction deems noteworthy. Whether sharing straight business and rosy posy or the real raw every day. Like getting to know all news no matter.  Nope you have those for supposed kissing tail advancement saying they deserve it because they left come to Haiti or the ones saying one is not Haitian cause they do not want to donate to their crook business non-profit started to make a quick buck. Making the ones who do it for the cause struggling for support that many who get it do not even last the one with true passion wanes when no money comes in for first few years and this is why I do what I do. Too much popcorn for me. I am proud but not happy at all with Haitians much these days. Share it all and continuously what is going on in Haiti and all over. We hear want to know and "Ain't nobody got time for that" to look on this page for this or that kind of news. Glad I see that being shared more often in Haiti Libre and Haiti Infos always shared even on social media. I just know the keywords followed in my feeds for over a decade, now share The Haitian Times who use to never come through. I have had my terms set for over ten years. So all the news on specific term pertaining to news here and there has been emailed to my Yahoo and Gmail past five years. So when I am voicing my opinion it is not out my ass. I really do pay attention to all I can and see when improvements or interruptions occur. Many talking about not being ashamed but what does the peekaboo news there and here give a message of?
