Life on Florida’s West Coast

Are You an Expert?

I was always taken by the character of Don Juan’s mother in Lord Byron’s epic version Don Juan. She was portrayed as a woman who knew just enough about everything to be charming and interesting at parties, yet there were no topics at all where she had deep knowledge.

Use Your Knowledge
I’m sure you could have done without the literary reference, but what I’m saying is that it’s great to be an expert about something. When you have a lot of useful knowledge about any given topic, people will generally look to you as an authority in that area. Why should you let that be something that only happens when your friends and family come to you for advice? You may as well capitalize on it.

“Bee” an Expert
The internet gives you the entire world as your audience. Take your expertise and write articles that will educate and assist others. eBuzz is an appealing little website (with the fun motto “Bee an Expert”) that gives people everywhere a platform for their expert status. It doubles as a social networking site, allowing writers to connect with one another, find peers in your interest area, send and receive private messages, ask other users questions, and much more.

If your articles become popular enough, you can even win prize money. How’s that for an incentive?

All Topics are Fair Game
eBuzz.com is easy to navigate. Topics and subtopics are clearly labeled and you can even browse articles according to their popularity and usefulness. The subject areas are boundless. I’ve read great articles like “What Vitamins Help in Acne Problems and Treatment,” “How to Find a Good Dog Trainer,” and “Choosing a Bicycle Rack for Your SUV Vacation.” Seriously, there is an expert out there for almost anything you can imagine.
