My name is John Pratt. I’ve been creating and maintaining web sites for about 10 years now. When I first started making web pages I was using Netscape Navigator 1.0 and the Trumpet Winsock to connect via dialup to the Internet on a 14.4 baud modem. I’ve used every version of Netscape there was, every version of IE, every version of Mozilla (and Firefox), I remember when animated gifs and frames were all the rage, and I used to surf the newsgroups all the time. I watched the rise of the dot com bubble, and the new social media tools now available in web 2.0. Years ago I used to write a weekly email newsletter that had more than 5,000 subscribers, and I also wrote web articles for many web sites and a few services.

I’ve owned my own business where I built, fixed, and maintained pc’s, I trained hundreds of people things from how to use the Internet and email to how to write HTML and create web sites. I worked at a (now defunct) ISP in Ann Arbor, Michigan until just before they closed their doors, and have worked in Ford Motor Company IT maintaining web sites and applications for both Intranet and extranet for 10 years. Now I’m working online full time for myself as a Wordpress Consultant. My clients range from individuals with blogs and niche or affiliate sites to small businesses and corporations. If you need help, I encourage you to go to my Hire JTPratt page and read more about the work that I do and my recent clients.

This site is mostly about blogging, how to make money blogging, building affiliate and niche stores, Wordpress themes, Wordpress plugins, Wordpress hacks, SEO, link and traffic building, and working online. Hopefully (if you aren’t interested in hiring me) the free information I provide can be of some help to you starting to build your own business and income online!
