Happy Thanksgiving! I realize that only about half of Eric’s Tips readers are in the USA, but gratitude transcends all borders.
| First, I want everyone reading this to know that I’m thankful for YOU. Without you, Eric’s Tips wouldn’t exist.
Here’s a small free gift as a token of my appreciation. It’s an ebook containing Google Analytics tips. It also explains how you can integrate Google Analytics with social media. Click here to download… (PDF file) |

Next, here is the 3rd annual Eric’s Tips Thanksgiving contest!
(Watch this video…)
(Update: the contest is over and I have emailed the winners– twelve Eric’s Tips readers from all around the world. Thanks to everyone for participating! And it’s not too late to post your words of gratitude.)
Please post a comment below and let us know what you’re thankful for 🙂
Have a great day and a happy Thanksgiving!
Nice video!
I’m thankful for (what’s left of) my family, and my ability to spend the holidays with them. I’m thankful that my daughter survived her bout with a brain infection, with only minor long term effects, and I’m thankful that her severe allergies are under control. I’m thankful that my son, who worked very hard to get his engineering degree at a well known school found a job (even if it is as a clerk at a toy store). I’m thankful for my husband, and that he has a job he chose rather than one he was forced to take after layoffs and the like.
Like you, I’m thankful for a nice warm home and food on the table.
And, of course, I’m thankful for the opportunities the internet and people like you have provided me.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

Hi Eric,
Happy Thanksgiving to you!
I’m grateful for having the eyes to see this, I appreciate the great love of family, friends, and business partners. I’m thankful for being able to apply your tips, tricks, and techniques to my film making and acting careers.
Very thankful for my new juicy role in a Hollywood feature film.
All The Best,

I am thankful to the Lord for allowing this old WWII Marine Combat Corpsman to be alive to enjoy and love his wife, children, grand children and great grand children.
And as an adopted child, thank you for your charitable efforts Eric and your help to this 85 year old book seller and others over the years.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

P.S. Your Colorado home looks to be in the area of Westcliffe where my daughter had a home.
We are really thankful nation!
Today is just another day if you were truly thankful however I would like to express to all who read this a happy and blessed day to you. At 81 years I have had the honor to be born in this great country and to have been raised as a kid, first to walk behind a mule and plow, no indoor plumbing or electricity to participation in each and every major technical advancement this country and world has gone through. I have been a creator of many inventions, both own my own and as a team effort, I currently am working to master this e-marketing gig. If I make it OK and If I don’t, I will have had a lot of fun and learned many new things. I have spent money and searched the net and I can say that Eric is by far the best teacher and bargain I have found. That alone is something to be thankful for.

Thankful for family, friends, and God’s gift of time to honor and enjoy them…
It DOES look like an outhouse, doesn’t it! No, it’s a tool shed.
Hi Eric,
Thanks for your tips and Happy Thanksgiving.
Michael Palm Sweden.
Hi Eric, thanks for sharing. I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the work you do, specifically ‘Erics Tips’. I have been following from the very beginning and I can honestly say that the one piece of valuable content that you presented in one of your tips has made a huge difference in my online strategy. That tip was to purchase a hosting reseller account. That for me made my online strategy more economical and cost effective.
I look forward to receiving your future tips and wish you every success in the future. Thanks again.
I am thankful for Jesus Christ who died on the cross for me and you and showers us with bucketsful of blessings each day. I am thankful for Godserving people like you and your family and who selflessly help others to help themselves. The list is endless…..Thank you dear Jesus and praise your holy Name!
I am thankful that I can see, feel and hear
Happy Thanksgiving Eric and everybody else in the USA and thank you so much for your gift.
I´m grateful for being born in a country where I can eat and drink every day.
Every single day I am grateful to live in a beautiful land, with the freedom to do as I please so long as it harms no others — to enjoy reasonably good health despite many challenges — to be able to smile when a teenage boy cuddles a kitten and sheds tears of joy for the pleasure of the experience — to watch a determined elder person navigate the difficulties of living without as many resources as they once had, still vital and full of vigor and purpose — to see the sun rise and set with so much beauty — to have a family and home that is both shelter and peace. For friends and family who would be there for me in a heartbeat if I asked — and I for them. For work to do that fills my soul and makes my heart glad. For all the people on the planet who are working with everything they have to make things better where they are. I cannot stop writing and thinking of things that are so good. And Eric? You are definitely on my list among so many others who are doing good things here. Thank you.
Dear Eric,
Thank you verymuch for all your lessons. Really I thank God for you. I have never come across any Entrepreneurs who does Gods work. Really I am motivated by you. professionally I am a nurse. I have plans to do some good work in India. God will enable me to accomplish great things for Him. As you do I also want to do mission work and Charitable work in India. We are working in UK. I got your link through Mr. Tom Hua. Then I subscribed and learnt a lot from your lessons. I whole heartedly thank you and our dear Lord bless you and your family to do more mission trips around the world.
I am very new to Internet business. Thank you for all your help.
God bless you.

Thank you Eric for your gift and your video.
I am really thankful that there are actually 365 days in every year for me to give thanks. There is so much for me to be thankful for in my life that it takes all 365 days to get the job done…. 🙂 Gary
Firstly Eric, thanks for giving me the chance to express my gratitude in your blog.
Being healthy and alive is the best gift for a human on earth. I thank God for giving me this life.
And internet is the best invention in my lifetime, allowing me to have freedom when it comes to generating income. It gives me the room to express and fully utilize my talent for good. Internet transcends my life and everyone of us.
I feel so grateful that my parents is living with me. They give me their unconditional, special love and attention even though I am an adult now.
I am grateful that I’ve a place to live, protected from the rain and sun. So I can do what I want anytime and sleep peacefully whenever I like.
I am grateful for all my past, good and bad. The history is part of me. With the good experience, I enjoy the happiness. And without the bad experience, how could I appreciate the good experience?
I am grateful for those who hurt me for I learned from them valuable life lesson. I am thankful for those who make my life good with joy and happiness.
Thank you life for you make me unique. Thank you for making me a human. Thank you for I am what I am. And I stand tall for who I am.
Hey Eric,
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family too. I hope it will be a day filled with joy; remembering Who our many blessings come from. I am grateful for my good health, friends and family. I am grateful the Lord opened the door for me to visit Xinjiang,China this summer and for the wonderful experiences meeting people there.

I am thankful for life. In April 2005 I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and not expected to live. Today, after extensive chemotherapy, several surgeries and 38 radiation treatments I am cancer free.
I’m thankful for my 5 children and my grandchildren
I’m especially thankful for you. I am 70 years old and permanently and totally disabled. I read your ebook, “How to sell hosting.” I just started a small website hosting business to help supplement my meager social security.
Life is good and I have much to be thankful for.
I am thankful the Lord has allowed this old WWII Marine Combat Corpsman to live so long to be able to love and enjoy his wife, children, grand children and great grand children.
As an adopted child I also thank you for your charitable endeavors and am thankful their are persons like you that can and do help an 85 year old book seller like me.

I’m thankful for this wonderful community I’ve found online. I have virtual shoulders to cry on, and new friends to laugh with. You’re amazing, and it is a privilege to walk this path with you. And for a God who loves me and blesses me every day. I am thankful for my family, a home to live in and food for every meal. I am thankful for my health. I pray every day for those who are less fortunate and don’t have a home and food.
Thank you for the contest.
I am thankful for my family, health and hapiness. Also, I’m very much appreciative for the information that you provide for the benefit of aspiring internet marketers. As a result of your style, I like many other of your readers have and will continue to purchase items either from you or that you endorse if they make sense for our business model.

Thank you.
I love this time of year. Thanksgiving and the Christmas Seasons. However, I try with every fiber of my being to be grateful all year long. This is is how I live my life: 1. My God and my Priesthood! 2. My Family! 3. My Friends 4. My Country and its Flag.
The most thankful this year I’m to my friend Darius who introduced me to investment course, which I’ve finished and started investing career 🙂

Greetings Eric and family,
I am so very thankful to be vertical and moving on this beautiful Thanksgiving day! Out here in Northern California it is cold but sunny. I think when we reflect more, on all that surrounds us daily, we can be thankful for the people, the land, and blessings that make us, who and what we are!
Thankful for you Eric!
Faithfully in His loving grip, <

Hi Eric
That is a dream office if I’ve ever seen one.
I’m thankful for the following:
-Air in my lungs
-A large extended family with which to celebrate the holidays
-Great weather in Southern California
-The time in history that we live in
-Having a roof over my head
-All of my mentors, past and present
-Graduating college
-Every day that I can play golf
-Eric’s Tips
I am in the thick of a marketing project for a group of local businesses. Just before lunch today an awareness was given me on how to incorporate a major leap forward in their marketing efforts.
A friend had invited me to celebrate Thanksgiving with their family. It was almost like I was told to stay home so that I could receive and work on the inspiration.
When the idea and method became clear to me, I was so excited that I could hardly take time to eat.
So glad that I did stay home because when this idea and these methods are perfected, I will have lots more time to spend with family and friends to celebrate all the good gifts given by our triune God. (Spell check does not recognize “triune”. Obviously the “spell checkers” don’t know much about theology.) And thank you, Eric.
Hiya Eric.
Happy Thanksgiving to you too. Thanks for all the info you’ve helped me understand.
What am I thankful for?
The basics. I’m warm, fed, have a roof and people who love me.
Everything else is gravy. (Yum….. gravy..and mashed potatoes…oohh cranberries. love cranberries..)
Gotta go a loved one wants me to get off the computer and hug me.
*Big smile*

Oops forgot to add happy holiday to you and your family of course… 🙂
Happy Thanksgiving Eric! You certainly have a beautiful house, but is that an ‘outhouse’ in your backyard?
Happy Thanksgiving all!
I’m particularly thankful for my loving wife… She’s my perfect counterpart and help-meet. Without her I’d be a 10th of the man I am today!
May God’s grace abound and reform first the home, and then the nations!
Happy Thanks Giving Eric & Family!
I’m writing this response, as I recover from from jet-lag, after having traveled from Florida to NYC, yesterday…
I’m THANKFUL because although I live and work in Florida, and my family lives in NYC, we’re still really close.
Although it’s difficult being away from my little (5 yrs & 11 months:-) girl, we’ve kept in touch during these 6 years with plenty of telephone calls, video chatting and holiday visits…
I’m also very thankful that my Mother is still healthy and relatively happy, my brother and sister are still the same people they were when we were kids;, although we’re all baby-boomers now.
I’m also thankful that because EVERYONE has a certain level of creativity, WE can ALL choose to CREATE PEACE and LOVE, during these strange and trying times, in the U.S. and abroad…
Take care EVERYONE and HAPPY Thanks Giving 🙂

Wow! Nice digs. Thanksgiving in Colorado without snow. What’s up with that? I used to live right down the road in the Denver area. Been gone almost twenty years now. Here I am in the Seattle area and would you believe it. Snow! Go figure. I am thankful for my family and friends. Today, we are celebrating Thanksgiving at some friend’s home who graciously invited us to share with them. The only thing I’m bummed about is not leftovers. 🙂 Your tips are enjoyable. Happy Holidays!
I am thankful for the love and support of friends when my wife was sick earlier this year and indeed the past 6 years with Alzheimer’s. I am thankful that the Lord answered prayer and took her to be with Himself in Mid August. I am thankful that both the Lord and my friends encourage me to go on and serve Him and fulfill the vision He has given me to please Him.
I am thankful for my grandmother who taught me Christian values and work ethics that I continue to share with my family, grandchildren and friends.
I am thankful for the encouragement given by friends and others to bridge the tough parts of life.
Finally I am thankful for life itself providing many opportunities for happiness and success.
Hi Eric Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones. Im thankful to live in the land of the FREE !! I want to thank all the brave men and women that protect our FREEDOM and wish them happy thanksgiving. Support our troops !!
I am grateful for so many of the little things, the ones that we take for granted unless we don’t have them — fresh air, clean water, warm shelter, a source of good food … and the freedom to associate together, travel, and pursue creating more of these for ourselves and others. These are the things that count most, and I am grateful for them.
(Oh … and I am grateful that even though Eric doesn’t always use an external microphone on his video cam, that during the first part and last part of his video he got his voice close enough to the mike that I could understand him clearly. 😉
Happy healthy thanks giving to you and yours Eric,
Iam thankfull for my internet conection and the roof above me,we should all remember those that have so little and be thankfull for all we have even if we think we are struggling. God Bless the planet and all who sails within.
I’m thankful for having a wonderful caring wife, and that we are both healthy and can enjoy life we like to.
And I’m thankful that in today’s world it is still possible that someone, like you Eric, is taking his precious time to teach us and give us valuable tips and advice for free.
Thanks Eric,
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! And thanks for all of the free advice, help and tips that you provide, they certainly have been most welcome on this end!
Very simply, I am thankful for the gift of life, faith, family, friends and the good health to enjoy it all.
Diffently a long list of things to be thankful for…as many as the next person. However, one thing really stood out for me this week and this Thanksgiving morning.
For almost 18 years now I’ve lived in Los Angeles, Ca. and have worked in a local hospital…believe me,I’ve seen a lot of things over the years.
This week it was officially announced in the medical community and news that there was finally an approved drug that prevents healthy people from contracting hiv and aids.This is diffently the biggest breakthrough against this horrible infection to date.
So many people will now be able to live healthier and longer lives now and enjoy many more Thanksgivings to come…diffently at the top of my list this Thanksgiving.
PS: Have a GREAT Thanksgiving everyone hear at Eric’s Tips
Gary
I am thankful that I have made it through another year and that my health is improving to the point where I am now looking very seriously at running a home business. I have just started looking, but even as a newbie I have learned a lot about making money on the interrnet.
Only one more operation to go and I should be able to setup my first website.
There is no sence starting something then not being able to access the internet or work while I recover. I know how upset I get if it looks like a site I am following all of a sudden stops updating or closes dowm completely.
So in recap I am thanlful for the healing power of God, the support, prayer and friendship of my wife, children and people ,many of whom I have only met through sites like this one.
This is a super contribution, Phil!
Thank you for that.
Happy Thanksgiving Eric! Thank you for your contribution to Internet Marketing
