Computer Lessons Australia - It's Back

[ScottNugent]

Hi All!

Over the last couple of weeks, I've been putting together Computer Lessons Australia to relaunch www.computerlessons.com.au. I've run it past neddy and he is impressed at the moment, but of course there is room for improvement.

If you could have a look, leave comments, or even sign up for my weekly newsletter it would be great! At the moment I am creating something called The Coding Series, which may interest some of the more technically-interested or adept forum members here. I'm also planning to post many things about my computer experiences and discoveries.

From a domaining point of view, I'm trying to focus a bit on the development side of the site, rather than affiliate marketing, advertismenets, etc. But, I do plan to implement a bit of marketing, PCC stuff, etc (on advice from neddy; thanks!). Would love your advice too.

Would love to here your feedback. Thanks so much guys.

First video is online now! http://www.youtube.com/computerlessonsau is what I setup.

Great work Scott. It looks much better now I watched some of the tutorial. A few comments:

The volume isn't loud enough, I had to turn it up quite a bit to hear you talking. Quality's alright though.
I like the start up screen of the video.
Is there any reason it was only 360p? It was fine in the player but looked awful at full screen.

Just wondering, what screen capture tool are you now using? Looks a bit like camtasia

EDIT: Also, it looks like you're 5th in the search for Computer Lessons Australia. I'm actually genuinely surprised you're that high already, I guess google is liking the content

Thanks sparky!

Yes I know I just realised, and the quality is just how it did it.

It is camtasia, so I might try re-rendering just now.

Good advertisement for content I suppose; haven't done much SEO (except description and keywords and permalinks) but added heaps of content. Interesting...

Hey all!

I'd love to see you all comment on my latest post; How important is social media when it comes to businesses and organisations (and marketing)?

http://www.computerlessons.com.au/other/so-how-important-is-social-media/

Look forward to some interesting and varied responses!

Done!

I think your site is starting to look good Scott.

Given the topic of your post, how come you haven't got a Facebook "like" button on your page? I know you've got a page 'cause I "liked" it yesterday!

Thanks Ned!

On www.computerlessons.com.au or www.scottnugent.net? The former doesn't have Facebook, my own site has nothing at the moment; but the new site I'm developing at the moment has social media links!
