I think that it is always important to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries, as they are not only a good way to mark time, but also an achievement. It has been a year since I first started this site, which makes it a good time to reflect on the work that has been done here over the last year.
From idea to website
This website started from humble beginnings, in fact, it lingered as a mere domain name for several years. You see, I purchased this domain name way back in 2001. At the time I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted to do with it, but I knew that it had to be something big. It took eleven years before I was finally ready to launch the site, which first hit the Internet on July 19, 2012.

Why This Blog Was Born
I have had a lot of ups and downs in the network marketing industry and wanted to share my successes and ideas with others, as well as to provide a forum where people could share their experiences. My initial idea was that this blog could be a one-stop source of information for network marketers that were struggling in the business. I wanted to provide valuable insight and tips that would help them get their network marketing opportunity off of the ground. I believe that it is important to share successes with others and encourage them to do the same. I always take an “abundance” mindset when it comes to network marketing, as I firmly believe that there is plenty of success to go around.
In order to make this blog into a good source, I knew I had to establish and brand myself as an authority on the subject. I wrote tirelessly about important topics in network marketing such as how to use keywords, blog comments and other techniques for getting your business off of the ground. Over time I was able to gain the trust of my readers and hope that I have established my blog as an authority in the industry.
Why I Love Blogging
I enjoy this blog so much because it allows me to share my experiences and expertise. I love writing about the network marketing and Internet marketing industry. I like being able to help people with their problems and through these discussions I actually learn more about the business myself. Because of this, I can’t say that this has been an entirely selfless endeavor, as I have learned as much as I have taught.

Happy Birthday to NateLeung.com!
I am now one year into this journey and have been entirely happy with the progress so far. I can’t tell you how long I will continue to do this, but as long as I have a passion for network marketing I will continue to write and share information. Thank you so much for reading my blog and I hope you will share this anniversary with other people. Here’s to many more years of successful network marketing and blogging!
Hi Nate,
Well, happy birthday to your blog. It looks great, it’s full of content, and you’re just getting started I bet! 🙂
Fantastic job – I love blogging (now) because it’s a creative outlet, a way to share information I learn and tips that the School of Hard Knocks teaches with others!
Everyone should start one, if for no other reason than sharing their knowledge with the world!
Hey Jon!
I agree with you 100%. It can be any type of interests and if you have a passion for it why not? Share ideas and give value to those in the same community. Thanks for your feedback!
Hi Nate,
Happy birthday to your blog! Love the idea!

Hi Nate,
Happy first year birthday! Have your favorite treat tonight. You deserve it!
The people who truly love what they do are about 4% of our population. Yest anyone can become part of that group, when they decide to direct their lives towards what they really want to do, be it performing, flying a plane, making cabinets or anything else. You’re a real role model and I salute you today!
Hi Joanne!
Thank you so much for the kind words! 🙂
Hey Nate
Congratulations on your blog’s first birthday!
That’s an achievement in itself. Some people don’t make it beyond the six month stage.
Once you get to 12 months though, you’re surely going down the right path.
Hey Tim!
You’re right about the six month stage. I can totally agree with you on that! Thank you, much appreciated.
Happy birthday..!!
I’m a recent follower of your posts but I’ve picked up lots of useful stuff over the short time I’ve been here – so very many thanks!
