Bloggers - Internet Marketers Against Internet Marketing

April 22nd, 2008 | 9 comments

This post is probably going to piss alot of people off. But hopefully I’ll be able to get my words across in a way that explains my true feelings on the subject, which aren’t bitter, but frustrating that so many bloggers don’t understand.
This post wasn’t written to call anyone out or criticize anyone. My goal [...]

Good Bye Akismet Hello Spam Karma 2

April 6th, 2008 | 14 comments

After using Akismet for nearly a year, never spamming any blogs and being put into Akismet hell for the second time, I’ve decided it’s time to get rid of Akismet and go with a more mature spam fighting tool, Spam Karma 2.
I received an email this morning from a good friend of mine, Caroline Middlebrook [...]

4 Ways your Blog can Pay your Bills

March 21st, 2008 | 20 comments

Although this blog isn’t to a level of popularity like Maki, Yaro or Darren’s blogs; Its growth has exceeded my expectations in the short time it’s been around. I’ve never considered myself a blogger, but more of an Internet Marketer in general, so I’m happy with 400 daily RSS subscribers (and growing.)
However, the income generated [...]

An UnMeme - What I Expect from my Blog

January 10th, 2008 | 8 comments

I was recently tagged by Terry Heath, a great guy and a friend, for a meme titled “What do you Expect from your Blog.”
However, for various reasons I’ve decided to stop taking part in memes. This has nothing to do with Terry or his meme, but memes in general.
So I’m going to do something similar [...]

Now that the holidays are over it seems like everything is beginning to get back to normal. While I work on other projects and crunch some numbers for the upcoming tax returns (or tax payment for some of us) I want to give a little exposure to a few deserving blogs.

Can Spammers Legally Steal Your Blog Content?

December 28th, 2007 | 17 comments

Of course not, but some seem to think so. A few days back, while browsing the WSO forum of the Warrior Forum, I noticed an offer for a piece of software that takes RSS feeds from random blogs, forums, article directories etc, creates a bunch of blogger blogs and publishes that content to those splogs.
Being [...]

Blog Reader Appreciation

December 8th, 2007 | 12 comments

As the reader/contributor base here is gradually expanding, I feel it’s only necessary to give back in a small way at least.
Several of you frequently read, link to and/or comment on this blog and I want to thank you. Without you I’d just be talking to myself and this blog would not be going anywhere [...]

Comment Policy Updated - Use your Keywords!

November 15th, 2007 | 3 comments

Something just popped into my head. I use Lucia’s Linky Love, which strips the rel=”nofollow” attribute from your links once you’ve left 3 or more comments, so why not let you use keywords. Anchor text helps you and it also helps this blog if the site being linked to is on topic and the only [...]
