'Fake babies'
I can't believe how busy I have got with my doll kits that I sell since the TV programme 'My Fake Baby' was aired. I have sold the blank vinyl kits for these dolls for years and all of a sudden they have got really popular. The idea is to paint a blank vinyl part to look as realistic as possible, root mohair into the vinyl (which takes ages) make up the doll and then it can be admired by all! There are some pictures of these dolls on my website www.tedshop.com in the dolls and doll kits section… Continue

about me
Hi, I have two daughters 12 and 15 and juggle my time between them, learning to play the piano and my shop. I have a doll, teddy bear and dollshouse shop and have built up my own website over the last year and a half, I am quite pleased with it as I am a bit green when it comes to computers, EKM made it so easy. My web address is www.tedshop.com in case any one wants to have a peek.

I hope you are finding your way around the site ok and using the resources that Web Mums has to offer. In addition to socialising with a fantastic group of women there is the opportunity to network and really sell your business. Web Mums is growing daily and the traffic to the site is dramatically increasing, so make the most of your profile pages.
If you are finding the site confusing then have a look at our users guide and site map this can be found on the main home pages navigation menu. You will also find the business forum a valuable resource in addition to perhaps joining some of our groups.
You have been given a whole profile page to tell the world about yourself and/or your business. Many women have it for personal use but if you are a business – this is your chance to really sell yourself. You have a text box at the top of the page that you can use to describe your business, add photo’s of your products with links back to the products on your website and you can use it to introduce yourself and maybe a little bit about why you started your business.
Also, if you belong to any affiliate schemes – you can put the code here too. Make money from your profile page!
You have potentially 180+ customers on just this website alone and they all have friends/contacts and that is without the huge potential of passing traffic. Treat your profile like a mini website – word of mouth is one of the best endorsements any site can get.
In addition to this, you also have the facility to blog about what you do and you can also include links within this to specific products. If you have a blog elsewhere then copy and paste it over to Web Mums. The more blogs you have around the internet – the better rankings you will get with the search engines.
There are new members joining every day, maybe someone will join tomorrow that could open amazing doors for your business – so don’t add a few links and never come back and check Web Mums again. It is to your advantage to use this site as much as possible – that is what networking is all about. Also the information that is being added all the time may just be the info you needed to accomplish a goal within your business/life.
And that’s not all, you also have the chance to hook up to an RSS Feed. This is particularly useful if your site has an RSS feed to your products – like eBay. Yes! You can display the products you are currently selling on eBay via your profile page (if you don’t know how to do this then ask me) it only costs £1 per month!! Then why not put a post in the Buy and Sell forum to highlight what you currently have on offer so that people will check out your profile page.
The possibilities are really endless and this is the tip of the iceberg to what you can really achieve! Web Mums isn’t just a directory – it’s a network of women pooling resources to help each other.
Finally, if you are really serious about wanting to advertise your business then why not take out an advertisement on the main page so that you get optimum exposure. The prices are incredibly reasonable for members and can be discounted for 3 – 6 month terms. To view our current advertising fees see the forum of look under ‘Adverting fees’ in the navigation menu on the home page.
Also, if you would like to be included in the business directory, let me know – please specify whether you wish to be on the front page directory which is only £3.50 per three months – less than £1 a month, (This offer is valid until 21st March when it will then be £3.50 per month – which is still only about 85p a week), or whether you wish to be in the free one which will be within the site. You will automatically appear on both if you have a paid subscription. All payment would be preferred by PayPal – but you don’t need to have a PayPal account to do this.
If you have any questions or you would like further help promoting your site, then please feel free to contact me via my profile page or you can send me a personal message or email me at nikki@webmums.com
