When you look at how much Yahoo has put into their Panama system but yet they have dumb shits running the affiliate program can this really be a surprise?

Google has one goal, ruling the internet in an unchallenged top-down dictatorial manner. If you stand up for yourself and challenge them, they will do [...]

A lot of people ask me how I created the feed signature that allows only subscribers to download my free ebook How to Start a Business Blog.
The answer is simple and… unglamorous: I use a WordPress plugin called Sig2feed and some HTML/CSS coding. Anybody can use the plugin. If you don’t know HTML or [...]

Well, to tell you the truth, it’s my friend Mani Karthik who has the contest. It’s a real contest with a real prize: $250 (hey, that’s a big chunk of iPod, know what I mean?). Mani and I both write for Blogging Tips, and he’s a super-nice guy. He’s launching a personal blog and thought [...]

Watch on YouTube.
I believe that if you’re going to participate in social networks, you have to truly join in and be a part of them or you will not get much benefit for your blog at all.
Major points:
People don’t care about your blog.
But… given half a chance, they might care about YOU.
So I don’t [...]

What should a band or musician blog include, irrespective of the kind of music the band is about? I’ve made a short list of items you want to be sure to have on your band or musician blog:
Performance Schedule
Your band’s blog is information central for your fans, so make sure you keep it updated. You [...]

I never thought I’d see the day when I’d be quoting a scraper ripping off my content and using a program to rearrange and substitute words (quite badly), but damn, this is funny stuff:
hit a accusal to make: I don’t hit goals.
Wait, what? How crapper I not hit goals and ease be doing so [...]

I was responding to a comment from my friend Phil Gerbyshak, telling him “you’re welcome”, when I realized that I really haven’t been saying those two words very much, lately. I’ve been thanking people myself, left and right. But I haven’t been saying “you’re welcome” as much.
Why does this matter? Who are you really writing [...]

Mashable reports there is a new “teleprompter” application online, called CuePrompter. And just in case you didn’t know, a teleprompter is a machine (computers, nowadays) that scrolls the text a person reads when giving a speech. They’re used by everyone from politicians to talk show hosts to news anchor people.
I’m big on video, and I [...]

Well, that would depend on what search engine you’re using! Obviously, on the one that matters the most, I’m not even on the front page of the results. Update: I just checked again, and I am indeed on the first page of Google results! W00t! But, interestingly enough, I am either on the first [...]

In less than 2 weeks, I’ve managed to increase my blog’s subscriber count by nearly 200% to about 900 subscribers (198% to be exact, at the time of this writing). Many of you already know how, but I’ll say it anyway. Two words: Free Ebook.
I did this according to a plan, and I’m going to [...]

Blogs have come a long way since the late nineties, but most people still don’t really know much about them. The terminology confuses them. They have absolutely no desire to leave comments, and don’t know why anyone would. All the widgets in the blog sidebar are incomprehensible.
There are millions of people online who barely know [...]

I’ve said that mobile blogging will be big in 2008. That means that more folks will be both creating and consuming blog content via mobile devices. So the question has come up: Do you need a .mobi domain for your blog?
There is a lot of .mobi FUD and madness out there, and the combination is [...]

I Wish I’d Never Started on Blogger
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve read comments from bloggers who say that if knew then what they know now, they would never have started a blog on Blogger. It’s a common sentiment, but it’s also wrong. Before you get all righteous about how Blogger is lame, [...]

My big prediction for 2008: blogs rule. Blogs will grow tremendously in the categories of:
Political
News
Business
Mobile
Video
Political
In 2007, we saw a noticeable increase in the power of blogs and social/new media as they now play a more important role in American politics. I think 2008 is when web and grass-roots campaigns are going to really start fighting [...]

My recent post on the Success of my client’s blog Nursing School Programs must have got some people thinkin’. And thinkin’ is dangerous, because it leads to self-improvement. Anyhoo, I got a question from someone via my contact form:
There are a couple of Wordpress blogs that you offer - are they ones that allow [...]

Can you make a lot of money with AdSense on your blog? Well, like most things in life, that depends. I’m not going to give you any silly unrealistic happy-talk about it, but yeah, you can make decent money with AdSense on a blog–if you choose your niche wisely and write great, informative content.
Case Study: [...]
