Hey, guys. Welcome to the show. Wow. It's such an awesome show this week. I just finished interviewing Will Swayne who is a conversion rate optimization specialist. I got a hell of a lot out of that interview, including a really cool pdf that backs up the interview. I'm looking forward to that. I've just got a couple of things to go through before I start. I wanted to just have a quick recap on the last episode I did with Joe and Justin from the Adsense Flippers. They gave me a bunch of tips for selling my website, awebsitedesigner.com.au on Flippa. I've since put that up on Flippa, yesterday, I think.

I've taken some of their advice. Some of the stuff I couldn't take. It would've been great if I interviewed them first a few months ago and got some sales under my belt. I did notice I had bought a couple of sites on Flippa. I had a little bit of history there. I thought that would be enough. I put that up. I'll link you up to that. That's going okay so far. I've had four or five bids. I think it's up to $1,200, a lot less than I need it to be,
