Who’s changed the world more? 60s hippies, or tech savvy activists like www.aggressivetees.com owner reggie?
Modern Activists’ Armed With Technology.
Gone are the days of long hair, free love, and drug abuse. Today’s activists are technology savvy, trendy, and innovative. Take Aggressive founder and owner Reggie DeShields Jr. This 27 year old architecture student has built a clothing line of politically conscious apparel that boasted earnings of 1.2 million dollars in 2006. The young activist/entrepreneur reflects on the company’s nearly accidental beginnings.
“It just started out as more of an emotion than an idea. I was always passionate about things I felt were wrong with the world and things that I wanted to change. I was seeing all of these injustices and it angered me so much. I had to get some of that anger out, so I learned how to make my own t-shirts with messages showing what I wanted the world to know. After a while people started asking me ‘where did you get that shirt?’ When I told them ‘I made it’, they asked me if I could make them one too. Then, when I put the shirts on a website, aggressivetees.com was born.”
What started as an emotional release for the young husband and dad quickly turned into a full-time project as he was forced to quit his day job. Being personal savvy was a key factor in the endeavor’s early success as Reggie immediately began harnessing the power of the world wide web to promote his brand. Through affiliates groups, pay per click advertising, on the web social groups, free classifieds, and SEO, his business grew more quickly than he could handle alone. Fast forward 2 years later, and Aggressive now houses 18 employees in its New Jersey office.
Even still, he has managed to remain humble in the midst of all this success stating that, “the reason my business took off so fast was because I had a message of liberty, and liberty is contagious. All I really had to do was fan the flames.”
Who has changed the world more? Was it the rebellious, marijuana smoking hippies who complained about the man all day while listening to music? Or is it the technically inclined, businessperson activists of today? You be the judge.
Reggie’s only advice for anyone thinking of starting an activism business is, “Remember that it doesn’t matter if you see immediate success with trying to educate people or make a positive change in the world. There is no such thing as being unsuccessful when it comes to these endeavors because you are planting seeds that will grow to make the world a superior place even after you’re dead and gone. If that isn’t success, I don’t know what is.”

SEO QUESTION – BEGINNER WEBSITE DESIGNER NEEDS HELP!?
May 11th
Question by HoneyLegs:
SEO question – newbie website designer needs help!?
Alright: I am starting a website, or perhaps a series of websites.
Initially in my head I decided the websites would be structured as follows. There would be one main site, for example www.mynameis.com and then 50 or 100 other sites that would be www.mynameisjon.com, www.mynameisbill.com, etc. These sites would automatically forward the visitor to www.mynameis.com/jon or www.mynameis.com/bill.
I read something on an SEO website speaking about how google does not like masking or something else, and would remove sites that did this from their database.
Is what I am considering doing called masking or forwarding or something, and does google, and other search engines not like this? It’s not a problem only setting up the main page, I just thought the site would pull in a lot more people if I had the 50 or 100 other sites automatically linking to the main page.
Please help! I am new to all this
I do not know if www.mynameis.com is a site – I was just using that as an example, the idea I have fits into that structure.
Thank you Sm.mS… you have been really, really helpful.
My idea really has nothing to do with people’s names, it’s just the structure that would be similar – but I really appreciate your checking for me.
