Where Have I Been?

Well, I committed to a "One Page A Day" challenge for the month of February, organized by Eric Giguere of AdSense fame. I have subscribed to his blog and read it regularly. Good stuff. Back to the challenge. The only rule is to publish 1 page of content online per day. I haven't gotten off to a very good start, but I will finish strong. I'd like to rebuild some momentum with this blog and this should help. I rejoined the 3WayLinks.net program. My focus continues to be on building links and… Continue reading

Firefox and Internet Explorer Disconnect

Does anyone else feel like the days just flow together? Weeks seem to fly by in what feels like minutes. What accomplishments can I report? Much of my time recently has gone into site building. I guess that is good, since I enjoy it. (Interesting that my html editor here will not let me use an apostrophe. Hmm... I guess it is time to upgrade to a newer version of WordPress.) I was working on my project of transitioning the Niches-in-a-Box websites to new templates and was making very good progress. Then something prompted me to… Continue reading

Are You an eBay Affiliate?

Today I want to demonstrate the beauty of a new free plugin for Wordpress blogs. It's called FreeBayRSS by Azlan Kasim. With this plugin you can easily display both eBay auctions and Amazon.com products on your blogs. Here's how it looks: [nms:baseball,2,0] AND this is how the Amazon ads appear: [ama:baseball,1,new]

You can place the code for eBay and/or Amazon anywhere on your blog. You input the keywords that determine which ads display and you choose how many ads show up. And, better yet, you get all the affiliate commissions! It's very fun. Azlan is great with… Continue reading

Have you Signed up for Deal Dot Com?

Oh, and P.S. from my earlier post: Don't forget to sign up for Deal Dot Com. Looks like it will be a lot of fun and ultimately offer some pretty good deals on Internet marketing products. It is going viral quickly. I bet I've come across a dozen references to it already today. If you're into promoting, do that too. The commission structure they have set up looks pretty cool. The other new marketing craze to hit this week is BlogRush. This is John Reese's creation which will potentially increase… Continue reading

Is there a good Blog Directory Submitter?

Just a quick post to say I've spent some time using Submit 'em now -- the Firefox plugin I mentioned in the last post -- and I can't recommend it. It seems in need of maintenance. (It is free, so maybe that's the best I can expect?) I suppose if you have the time and want to stick with it, you could get some value, but maybe not. The program works similarly to Link Directory Submitter. There is a list of blog directories to submit your site to, for SEO backlink building. You… Continue reading
