Cre8tive Flow

Our new Twitter account, Cre8tiveflow has been set up today and all are welcome to follow. Not only will it announce our blog posts here, but knowing the Cre8tive Family, we may have a few things to say here and there.

Welcome to our friends!

In case you missed it, Cre8asiteforums has launched an opportunity for you to place web site announcements, jobs wanted/offered, classified, new product announcements, etc. in our Cre8tive Community Announcements & Jobs Board.

One liner, brief statements are permitted. All we ask for in return is a minimum donation of 5.00 to our Tip Jar. Longer announcements are accepted for higher donations. All notices remain on the forums forever. There are no insert/remove dates.

Cre8asiteforums puts all donations back into the industries we cover by sponsoring workshops, educational opportunities, contests and more.

In our continued quest to give back to the search engine marketing and web design industries we serve, Cre8asiteforums has answered the requests from members who want to promote their web sites, products, services, wish to fill job openings or seek new jobs.

For a minimum donation of $25, your announcement will be posted in the forums in our Cre8tive Community Announcements & Jobs Board, where it stays indefinitely. (No tracking code; nofollow, no “juice”.)

Not only that, as an extra bonus, your announcement may be hand selected by Moderators to be added to our well trafficked forums homepage, under our Cre8asiteforums News section. (Certain restrictions will apply.)

When We Build Web Pages owner, Jim Boykin, announced a logo contest recently, I knew just who to contact – Risa Borsykowsky. She not only entered it…she won it!

Risa, who is a Moderator for Cre8asiteforums, is also the forums’ logo creator. She designed the logo for this blog, as well the incredible logo for Cre8pc.com. She has been designing our holiday and celebration logos for the forums as well.

The contest was for a new website and foundation called “Give A Little Bit” (Site coming soon. Her logo design is up on the placeholder page.) Risa won a prize of $200. A web designer, mother of 3 boys, artist, and ecommerce site owner of several sites including Jewish Gift Place and Basics Body Care.

As the days continue, I’ve been hearing from old friends and honoring some of our members who have contributed the most to the Cre8tive Community.

Meet one of our most devoted members, Yannis Lazarides, from Cyprus!

1. If you can remember, how did you first learn about Cre8asiteforums?

I came to Cre8asiteforums via Google, just landed trolled for a few days and then decided to post and stay. One of my early posts was ‘With Apologies to Bragadoccio’
which was followed by a blog post by Elizabeth Able aptly named ‘With Apologies to Yannis . When Bill retired from being a moderator I thought of writing a post ‘With Thanks to Bragadoccio’, but I regret that I never got down to actually writing it.

As I interview and touch base with Industry favorites like Rae Hoffman, and showcase Cre8asiteforums Moderators this month, I’ve begun to mix together old friends and create a reunion of sorts.

While I polish up some of the upcoming Industry interviews, I’d like you to meet some wonderful people from the Cre8tive Community, in our continuing Moderator, Member, Industry Interviews: 6th Anniv Celebration Series.

Miriam Ellis, Moderator

While I’ve been interviewing people of interest in the industries covered by Cre8asiteforums, I’ve also dragged forums Moderators and Site Admins to the interview process. In our continuing month-long celebration of our 6th Anniversary, I’d like to present several of the Moderators.

Please click their name to read their entire interview.

It was the switch from long continuous hours to semi-retirement that encouraged me to join Cre8. More ‘family and friends about the kitchen table’ discussing subjects of mutual interest than business meeting or conference. And gaining new perspectives. The depth of knowledge, in Cre8’s archives and members, is comparable to most other fora but the community is ‘nicer’, for lack of a better word.

If you are a member of Cre8asiteforums and Linkedin, and would like show off your participation, you’re invited to join the Cre8asiteforums Group In Linkedin.

It’s free!
