If you haven’t been reading Darren Rouse’s ProBlogger.net, seriously where have you been?
Darren’s the ‘go to’ guy and aims to help “bloggers earn money”.
You can’t go wrong with that, can you?

For the current contest, the prizes are overwhelming and Darren has shortlisted 5 worth a jaw-dropping (more…)
I’m constantly asked, what happens if I run out of things to say on my blog.
I admit it can be quite challenging to have to come out with original content on your blog every day. (I’m assuming you don’t do an excessive amount of RSS reposts on your blog).
You want to continue to grow your blog community. As the same time, you need to balance the amount of time you spend creating content and balancing out the time required to:
- Generate traffic
- Refine contextual advertising (like Google Adsense) placement stategies
- Answer blog comments
- Research affiliate marketing programs
- Improve your blog site structure
- List it on blog directories
- Analyze and continually improve your post content
And on top of that, you might consider increasing your posting frequently to twice or thrice a day!
How do you manage?

I’d much prefer using one browser, however, it seems inevitable that I use 3 browsers (Mozilla FireFox, Internet Explorer, Flock) in the course of Internet marketing.Not necessarily because I want to, but because I have to.
If I had a choice, I’d probably go with Mozilla Firefox.
FireFox also happens to be the name of a Clint Eastwood movie. For those who were around in 1982, you might rememeber the Soviet advanced fighter that could:
- flies at 6 times the speed of sound
- was invulnerable to radar
- worst of all – has a lethally sophisticated weapons system that the pilot can control through thought impulses. As soon as the pilot detects a threat – either visually or on a scope – his thought impulses will direct a missile to that threat, without so much as pushing a button”
Sounds cool, doesn’t it. My FireFox browser can do the same things too (well except the “6 times the speed of sound” bit)

There are wordpress plug-ins and then there are wordpress plug-ins.
And sometimes if you’re lucky, you encounter wordpress plug-ins!
Some plug-ins are kinda funky, like Hello Dolly! from Matt Mullenweg (aka Photo Matt) founding developer of WordPress. Matt also holds the distinction of being the #1 most important Matt in the world (according to google).
What does Hello Dolly do? For the non-Wordpress initiaited: It’s not just a plugin! It symbolizes the hope and enthusiasm of an entire generation summed up in two words sung most famously by Louis Armstrong: Hello, Dolly.
The effect?: When activated you will randomly see a lyric from Hello, Dolly in the upper right of your admin screen on every page.
Interesting plug-in. A bit lacking in the purely functional department, but otherwise good for your soul.
Then you have other plug-ins which help you do useful stuff, like link related posts, insert tags that help you get your blog found more easily (and hopefully bring more traffic).
I had a moment of ooh-ahh, when I chanced upon this plug-in while surfing the net earlier.

You’ve done up your blog.
You’ve looked for the optimum adsense positions.
Studied the Google Adsense guides, watched the videos.
You’ve read all the affiliate marketing materials that you got at UltimateAffiliateWeapon.
Maybe you’ve already got a copy of SecretBlogWeapon and you’ve SEO-enabled your site and got all the traffic generators in place.
Now what?

It’s strange that in the real world, I’m constantly surrounded by intelligent, attractive women.
I guess they appeal to me, and they say whatever you visualize, you eventually make a reality.
The original saying is ‘whatever the mind can achieve, it can achieve’ but that’s a tad staid for me.
So by destiny or happy coincidence, I got myself a tag at SGBlogs88.com for the term ‘Internet Marketing’
and when I reloaded the screen…
