About Keith Watson

Hi - I am Keith Watson. This blog is dedicated to Banger - a teacher from my teenage years who - at least once a week - insisted upon cracking the hilarious - and I have to say - never heard before line "What's on Watson?". I would smile demurely - the rest of the class would fall about with sides aching - and life would go on for another week. 'Wats-on My Mind' I have decided will assist me personally as well as be of interest to others (I hope) who share my challenges. It will help keep me organised and document my activities so that I know what I did yesterday. You think I am joking!! I have been in the website development game since 1993 and have been involved with over 2000 website builds (with the help of my fantastic team of freelance programmers) It was only in the last two years though that I have moved over to making money for myself on line and in particular linking up with an amazing talent called Adam Eason to produce and distribute self help and hypnotherapy products. As a result of looking to promote these products I have downloaded hundreds of internet marketing articles and e-books, studied countless reports, tested list building tactics, butterflied, boot-camped, buzzed, adsensed, affiliated, met a jerk, jv'ed, plr given-awayed, and generally suffered from information overload. My computer - presumably in a fit of pique or simply demanding a holiday has given up the ghost on at least two occassions - causing me even more stress. Oh this simple business of making money online. BUT the great news is that it is all working and our list has grown - I have found some gurus I have complete faith in - and Adam and I are actually making money from our endeavours. Some way to go but I am more relaxed and can spot a phoney over hyped, sexed up, must have latest product which you must either buy or if not, simply fade into oblivion. There’s not room on this Internet for the two of us. This ramble of an introduction is really to set the scene for I am sure an interesting journey which I invite you to join. In fact I want you to help me find the right tools, scripts, plugins etc. etc, that will catapult me into the stratosphere of success. I hope you will be there with me. I don't just consider success in a monetary sense. I so want to help some friends of mine who are involved in Christian missionary work in some pretty harrowing parts of this world. If I can bring any help to their missions that will give me more satisfaction than anything else. I really, really do love this web stuff and the people you meet. I am convinced that this powerful technology can be harnessed to do some good.

All I Want for Christmas is a Pencil, Paper, Penknife and a Whistle!

Not your usual letter to Father Christmas I know and if my family happens to read this it’s not what I really want (hints will be dropped) but a pencil, some paper, a penknife and a whistle or all item on a list that the British Red Cross is recommending as part of a winter [...]

Match Day Nerves Or Are They Something Worse!

Did My Nursing Career Train Me To Not Smell?

It was with some interest that I read on the BBC website this morning about a ‘smell’ study. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-15770361 The sense of smell can be improved through training, a study on rats suggests. The study, published in Nature Neuroscience, also suggests if we do not use our sense of smell, we begin to lose it. [...]

Is Zero-Gravity Yoga The Universal Law Sir Isaac Newton Missed?

Food For Thought – Think Yourself Thin

Yes you can Think Yourself Thin – but the people that matter do not seem to know it. A news item on the BBC Newsbeat website caught my eye today and quite literally gave me some food for thought.  It stated that according to figures they had seen that the number of under 25 year [...]

Doctor Mark Porter Blowing a Smokescreen Over How To Stop Smoking

I was reading a recent article in the ‘Times’ regarding women’s health problems called ‘How to stub out the habit’ by Dr Mark Porter, which in itself was informative and helpful to those wanting to quit smoking.  But what got my juices flowing was that the article blew a smokescreen over the real reason why [...]

Delicious Data Transfer

Ever since the earliest days when it had a quirky spelling (I think it was de.l.icious – hmm doesn’t look right) I have loved ‘Delicious’ the social media site.  I was so impressed with the simple notion of having publicly available bookmarks of sites that you could share. Nothing better than recommended websites. Of course [...]
