Instant Results for Monetizing Your Blog 2008-02-26 12:01:29 I like seeing results, but more importantly I like seeing instant results, which is why I am pretty excited about the addition of PayPerPost to my blog.
My theory is that if a monetization method does not bring in any money within a few days, it’s not going to bring in any substantial money over a [...] Read more:Monetizing

Why This Post is Titled: “Writing Online Articles” & “Make a Blog” 2008-03-10 11:04:40 That looks like an SEO infested title. With the phrase “writing online articles” and “make a blog” so blatantly exposed it is obvious that I am targeting those keyword phrases. Well it is and it isn’t. Although it is good to subtly target keywords when you write posts, it is generally in poor taste to [...] Read more:Articles

Play Hide and Go Seek With Your Adsense Ads 2008-03-27 14:35:12 Yesterday I wrote about how Google Adsense
is super picky, and only likes organic traffic. Remember that this advice will vary from blog to blog, niche to niche. On my Adsense blog it holds true.
The majority of people that come directly to my site do not click on my Adsense ads, they just [...]
Adsense Would Prefer A Cheeseburger, But You Should Give It Something Organic 2008-03-26 09:22:50 Apparently organic food is supposed to be a more healthy choice than processed food. I guess the human body enjoys “real” food instead of “plastic” food. Personally I a prefer Big Mac, or a Sourdough Jack over a plate of vegetables and fruit. It just seems to me that processed food is more filling, and [...] Read more:Adsense
