I know many of you are having problems when trying to add a mini squeeze page. As you can see above, I placed mine into the main page, but most of you are trying to put it in the sidebar and are having problems.

I just took my code and added it to the sidebar and had the same problem. The squeeze page is all over the place. I think I have found what is causing the problem and also how to solve it :)

The problem is being caused by the Aweber form, and in particular the submit button. The reason the squeeze page is being pushed over the edge is due to the length of the button. Changing the width of the table makes no difference. The code in the Aweber from will insert the button as you created it.

One way round this is to shorten the text in the button. If you just use ’submit’ it works fine. If you want to add more text you will have to keep testing the form to see the effect.

Another possible solution (though I have not tried this yet) is to change the Aweber code. Instead of using the javascript, selcect the raw html file. Copy and paste that code into notepad and set a size value for the submit button. If you do this then you can set the size to fit the text in the button.

Hopefully that all makes sense.

I have had many emails on this subject so I will try and put a video together. It’s not something I have done before so bear with me, it’s outside my comfort zone, but I will fail forward into it! :)

It seems quite a few people are having problems uploading the profit pulling platform to their servers. If you are using FTP for the first time it can be very confusing. The first FTP I download was Filezilla and seems a popular choice but I didn’t like it. I had problems connecting to my server and the layout in Filezilla seems too messy for my liking.

The are many FTP’s out there so you do have other choices. The one I use now and highly recommend is Coffeecup FTP. It’s extremely easy to use and there are only three windows in it so it’s very tidy and staright forward. Your computer files are on the left, server files on the right and the upload activity below. You just drag a file from the left window to the right and your done.

I have a few CoffeeCup products and they are all great. There is plenty free stuff available including a HTML editor so grab that as well.

Click the link below the picture and that will take you to the Free Stuff page where you can download the FTP.

So guys, just set up a Twitter account, another one off the daily ‘to do list’. Who else is on Twitter? Have found Dean, Nadav and Alex of course.

I have uploaded another great plugin, thanks Lori for the tip in your post. It’s called ‘tweetmyblog’. When you write a new post on your blog it leaves a comment on Twitter at the same time. Also does the reverse, so any comments you leave on Twitter show on your blog. Pretty cool, eh?

If you look down the bottom of the 2nd sidebar on the right you will see the Twitter feed, if you click on ‘tweetmyblog’ that should take you to the site to get the plugin.

Just got to work out what is all about now :)
