A Time for Talk and a Time for Action  from ProBlogger Blog Tips  (2009/1/1 14:43)

I really like this post by Chris Brogan - What’s in a Name . “You worry about names. You think long and hard about titles. You put boxes around what you?re doing, if that suits you. I?ll be over here just doing. Thinking, planning, doing, and observing my results.” I’m always amazed by the debate and chatter that can at times surround blogging (and social media). Who’s doing it right and who’s doing it wrong, what is legitimate and what isn’t…. While there is a need for us as a community to talk, debate, reflect, label and define - the smart ones among us area also ‘doing’. What do you think? Share This

How Much Money Do Bloggers Make Blogging?  from ProBlogger Blog Tips  (2009/1/1 14:01)

Over the last two months I’ve had a sidebar poll running here at ProBlogger that asked readers to tell us how much their blog earned in October of 2008. This is an annual poll that we’ve run for a number of years now so it is always interesting to see the results. As usual - the poll revealed that most bloggers either don’t try to make money blogging or earn very little from their blogs but also that a smaller (but still significant) number of bloggers are making at least a part time living from the medium and a few bloggers beyond what most of us would consider ‘full time’. Of course this is not a scientific poll and it relies upon people interpreting the question correctly and voting honestly - I’m certain that there are inaccuracies in it (particularly with some voting in the top category just for ‘fun’) but the results are actually quite similar to previous years which does make me think that there is at least some level of t ...

How to Use Twitter to Grow Your Business  from Copyblogger  (2008/12/31 18:17)

Can Twitter actually help my business or is it a complete waste of my valuable time? This was the very question I asked myself only a few months back. Perhaps you’ve pondered the same? When people I respect started singing the praises of Twitter, I decided to give it a go. At first I just didn’t get it. However, after a short while I was shocked at the level of access to high profile individuals I was able to achieve. This article reveals how bestselling authors and business professionals use Twitter to grow their businesses and reveals ideas you can employ to achieve Twitter success. In fact, I used Twitter (and LinkedIn ) to source much of what you see here! First, What is Twitter Again? “Twitter is instant messaging made available to the public,” stated talk show host and author Hugh Hewitt . I think that’s a fair starting point. I’ve heard others call Twitter a micro-blogging platform. Here’s what ...

Bathtubs, Lightning Bolts, and The Myth of Writer?s Block  from Copyblogger  (2008/12/30 19:54)

Let me tell you two stories. For the first, we go back to Syracuse, Sicily, in the third century B.C. Archimedes, a Greek mathematician, physicist, and inventor, was called before the throne to solve a difficult problem. The king had ordered a pure gold crown from the local goldsmith. But when the crown arrived, the king suspected the goldsmith of keeping some of the gold and replacing it with silver. The king asked Archimedes to help him prove it. Later, while thinking about the problem, Archimedes went to a bathhouse, undressed, and stepped into a full bathtub, causing some of the water to spill over the side. Suddenly, Archimedes had the answer: he would take the crown and a weight in pure gold equal to the crown and dip each into water. If the overflow was different, the crown wasn’t pure gold and the goldsmith was nabbed. Archimedes jumped out of the tub and ran through the streets stark naked screaming, “Eureka! Eureka!” meaning “I have fo ...

69 Questions to Ask to Review Your Blog  from ProBlogger Blog Tips  (2008/12/30 14:02)

With the end of 2008 hurtling towards us many bloggers are beginning to cast our minds forward into the new year ahead to set goals , make resolutions and come up with strategies and plans to grow their blogs in 2009 . While looking forward and planning to improve your blog is something well worth putting time aside for - I’ve found that you can drastically enhance the forward thinking that you do by doing another step first - reflecting upon the past . The mistake that many bloggers make in only looking forward is that they often fail to capitalize upon and build upon lessons that they’ve already learned. An Example I spoke with one blogger this morning who I think illustrates this perfectly. I won’t name him as I don’t want to cause embarrassment but he emailed me to tell me about how he was about to completely relaunch his blog in the coming days. He’d put up a holding page where his old blog had been, was going to launch a completely ...

How to Write Fast  from ProBlogger Blog Tips  (2008/12/29 14:19)

Alisa Bowman from projecthappilyeverafter.com shares some tips on writing fast. So you haven?t quite monetized your blog. That means you?re still working 8 or so hours in the non-virtual world for that paycheck. You may also have many other time commitments. They are called marriage, parenthood, friendships and Twitter. With all of these variables vying for the same 24 hours, how do you follow Darren?s advice and blog at least every day? You have a few choices. You could stop sleeping. You could give up the family and friends. You could learn how to write really fast. If you?re tempted by option #2, I can?t help you, but I wish you the best of luck with that. If you want to know more about option #3, keep reading. I first learned how to write fast when I was on deadline as a newspaper reporter. I, at times, had just ten or so minutes to crank out at least 800 words. These days I blog 4 to 5 times a week at projecthappilyeverafter.com , twice a week at Cap ...

Get Inspiration from Blog Comments When Writing your Next Post  from ProBlogger Blog Tips  (2008/12/28 14:37)

Today Marko shares a quick tip on how to generate post ideas from the comments left on previous posts. At the time of writing this, there has been 34 comments to my Create A Media Kit To Attract Advertisers To Your Blog guest post at ProBlogger.net . One of the good things about getting a guest post spot at a bigger blog is that the number of comments is larger as well. Getting higher number of comments from your targeted audience allows you to learn more about them, what they think about your writing, what questions did you raise in their minds and what answers they are looking for. This can give you inspiration on what you can write about in your future blog posts. Some of the comments on my guest post at ProBlogger give an idea on what readers are interested to learn about. I can see ideas for two new blog posts after reading the following comments: When is my blog ready to start attracting advertisers? 1. “100% agree with you Darren, but the point ...

How to Upgrade to WordPress 2.7 Safely and Ensure Compatibility  from ProBlogger Blog Tips  (2008/12/27 14:23)

Many bloggers are upgrading versions in WordPress at the moment to 2.7 - so when Hendry Lee offered to write this guide to doing it I thought it’d be useful to many. Enjoy. WordPress 2.7 codename “Coltrane” has been released earlier in December 2008, with the most significant change being the new Dashboard interface. A lot of people upgrade immediately, but a few others are still hesitant for one reason or another, as seen in the various blogging forums, including the WordPress Support Forums . The rule of thumb is simple. You should upgrade as soon as time permits. Not only because this version includes a bunch of new features and security updates, but also the fact that new versions will make future upgrades easier and painless with auto-upgrade and compatibility with newer versions of PHP and MySQL. However, many people haven’t yet taken the time to upgrade because of a few concerns: Compatibility with installed theme and plugins. Most the ...
