I have read and am implementing the system called Blogging to the Bank by, Rob Benwell. Although some of the information I already know, I am working with his system as if I were an absolute beginer. There are a few techniques he suggests, especially in the traffic generation part which I don't agree with so won't use, but I plan on using it as close to word for word as I can.When I have

It looks like the Free Ad Guru (Stephan Ducharme) is back again. I don't know if you have read his Ebook "How to get 1 million visitors on your website without paying a dime in advertisement" but I forked out $97.00, a long time ago, for it and I must say I was not impressed.Not that the contents weren't good, there is a lot of good information. It is just information that is readily available

I just found this on PDF Zone. It could be of interest to all you bloggers.Seems there are some new web sites where you can convert you RSS feeds into PDF format. This would allow archiving, redistribution via email, ability to read offline, and more.They note the site: rss2pdf.org as one source for this conversion. You can also use Adobe Acrobat 7 for these conversions.To read more go to: PDF

I don't know if any of you where affected by the latest google update, but I sure was. One of my sites, which used to rank first page on a number of phrases and on different pages, suddenly nearly dropped right out of site. But now, it seems to be slowly working it's way back up in the serp's.I am almost 100% sure I don't do anything that is considered bad to the engines, but none the less I got

I don't know if you have heard of Adlandpro Free Classifieds, but I have used them succesfully for many years now. It has served over 27,000 paying customers to date and processed more than 150,000 credit card transactions for our products. They have paid close to $1 million in affiliate commissions checks and have been in the classified ad business for nearly 7 years.They have started a new

The NetMarketingForum wants your opinion.If you use, have ever used or are interested in hit exchanges you should go and read this thread. You can even add your 2 cents, and there is a poll on what you think needs to be changed.You can see it here: What is neede to make the hit exchange industry betterInteresting stuff, with some really interesting posts.

I don't know exactly what I have done right, but after a few tweaks to some of the pages on one of my sites, I have gone up in ranking in Google, and am receiving a lot of visitors as well.I am going to finish working on some more of them now, and see if the results are the same. I also built some new pages for the same site, and was getting traffic from google within days. When I give this a bit

I am still in the proccess of working on the page creation with traffic hurricane. Been so busy on this new project, I just haven't been able to set-aside the time to do it. Hopefully tonight and tommorrow.I sure like the directory I built, I have been very happy with the results. Still haven't transferred the links I already have. I will work on that next week. Nice thing is, all the robots have

But I have been busy with my offline work as a communications consultant. I have been settling in Italy, and getting up to speed on a new contract in Italy.The really good news is, 2 of my websites have been getting a lot more search engine traffic in the last few days. Both have nothing tricky or special done to them, just good old fashioned natural SEO.I will update you soon on what I did.

Have any of you heard of Traffic Hurricane? It is supposed to make keyword rich pages for your website. It sounds like it just makes spammy pages to me, so I have decided to do an experiment.I am going to install it on a throw-away domain, build a few thousand pages, then trak the results, plus see if the site gets banned. I am voting for banned. It doesn't seem to be a very nice way to build

Well, I finished building my new Online Marketing Directory. I have the emails all done, the directory categories all set up, database built, and templates customized.The template customization was a little tougher on this site than on my last one because of how I originally designed the site but all is well now. Only thing left to do is put a link to the directory on the rest of my pages and let

Everyone and their dog have created links pages. They are good for you to get reciprocal link partners, but they don't really enhance your own site, and aren't a help to your visitors. Well I got tired of that and decided to do something about it.I downloaded a free script with which you can design a nice, structured directory on your site. You can customize the templates to fit your sites theme,

Well I've had a busy evening. If you are a Conigen agent, you should check the changes which have taken place.Because the agreements the competitive LEC's had with the Baby Bells has expired, they need to renegotiate. Power Net Global may be going right out of the local business, and Talk America is only offering service in Michigan for now.What a hassle for me. I was having good success with PNG

If you are a user of hit or click exchanges you will be interested in this.I don't know if you have heard of the Net Marketing Forum, but it is run by Jon Olson the owner of Ilovehits. There is a discussion going on there right now among the program owners about the state of traffic exchanges and what changes need to be implemented. If you use click exchanges or are curious about them I suggest
