Hi ‘garro’ early forty’s……..You’re still a sprog mate, ha ha….. Fair play to you!
I used to do a lot of boxing training, and sparring, but not matches, around mu forty’s, I know why you love it so much, I used to get such a buzz of it.
At 55 now, I’d love to have a go, (training, not fighting) my knees and shoulder are a bit shot away now….but would like to do the fitness and learn the technical aspect of it all.
Anyone know of an Muay Thai club in, or around Chiangmai, that welcomes ‘western punch bags?

Thanks for making me feel good

I'm also focusing on technique more at the moment, and this is why I've started doing Muay Boran(traditional Muay Thai)
I'm sure they have similar in Chiang Mai and it is a bit less intense than sport Muay Thai.

Hi garro,

Where is your Muay Thai gym (how come it is called "a gym")? I may join you as I'm not that old - I'm 25 Posted Image

Technically it is a camp.
I have sent you a PM with details of the gym - I was training at Sitsongpeenong but now I'm learning Muay Boran.

It depends on what you mean by a website and what you want from it. If you just want a steady stream of people you will need regular fresh content that is of reasonably high quality. It does help to know a bit about SEO, but if you can write well about things you are passionate about this is more important. A blog is a good option and you can set something up for free using Wordpress.com or Wordpress.org. I highly recommend that you purchase your own domain name.

If you intend to use your website as a business then you should get professional input all the way, and you will need to be willing to spend a good deal of money.

blogging only helps if your title, meta descriptions,urls, h tags, alts and links have the keywords your blogging about contained within - SEO. I have pages with no content and with only the aforementioned items filled in and get first page google in a competitive market.

IMO now is a good time to get back into internet business...Many large companies still aren't optimized for 3 word keyword phrases. That would require a complete file restructure and page renaming of their entire website. Many people took the blogging path without realizing good SEO and gave up with only bleeding fingers to show for it.

But if you blog and filled in the tags...good for you !...its sure to pay off. Filling in those tags takes almost as much time as blogging itself. Posted Image

I break many of the golden rules of SEO, but I still manage to do reasonably well for myself - thanks

Quality is king – in my experience.

Did you ever consider the possibility that you are not that important? Posted Image

I'm only half joking when I say this because this is something that I have to frequently tell myself. Most people are not going to even notice that you are not drinking. Of course you will sometimes get the suffering drunk who can't cope with the idea of other people without an alcoholic drink in their hand, but these are in the minority and they are easy to brush off. If you are worried about what people will think just say that you are on antibiotics.

If i was worried about what people will think i wouldnt say i was on antibiotics. Especially in this town! Posted Image
