Making money through blogging are what bloggers are focusing on across numerous revenue streams. Hence, more and more bloggers are learning how to use blogging as a marketing tool. Therefore, i will like to share with you three of the key ways to use blogging as a marketing tool.

• Through Traffics

Firstly, traffics help to convert prospects to buyers, and track them. Thus, it is necessary for you to know Read the full story

A. Aim to be a better blogger every day.  Always try to learn something different and new.  Here is a great site that will help you build your site by personally developing yourself along with your blog.  Either you keep up with the times/technology or your blog will eventually fade into the black-hole of the blogosphere and be but a forgotten memory.

B. Be yourself!  Don’t try to be someone that you’re not.  People will see right through it.  Readers of your blog will be able to connect easier and relate to you in many ways.  Being yourself lets the readers know that you are sincere and helpful at the same time.  Your personality will show through your blogging and the people will love you for just being yourself!

Just noticed that Google maps now has information on bus stop location, each with a list of alleged buses available in the infomarker.

Not good news if you actually wanted to catch a bus, but the saving grace for anyone concerned about the all-seeing eye of the 2 Mr Google’s deep in their underground lair, is that the information is completely wrong… (at the moment). There’s a bus stop there, but it sure as hell doesn’t have those bus numbers stopping at it.

Having a lot of work stacked up and nothing fun to do, I decided to ignore the work and give Habari a test installation on a localhost, just play around with it for an hour or two and see what the deal was with the core code.

To be scrupulously fair, these vague observations are the product of an hour or so, and of course, not authoritative in that regard. Against this, I have no great love for the present direction of WordPress… 2.5 seems laudable in most ideas, but not quite the finished version at present - there is still the spectre of bloat here, and I don’t think viable competition would do WordPress any harm at all.

I’ve got a WordPress blog, should I go to the trouble of setting up a (Google) sitemap for it?

No.

Why not?

The clue is in Google’s “locate web pages our spiders might not otherwise find…” - that’s what a sitemap does, and WordPress, if and when set up properly in its permalink structure will do the job just as well. (more…)

So this is the brave new world… Let’s be totally honest (for once) - I’ve never seen a bigger pile of dren.

Admin Themes? What is that all about? Well, it’s obviously part of the masterplan, since the option became available.So what is the great attraction in having a skin to stare at while doing important things like editing posts, culling comments etc. Like skins for Firefox, these things do rather slow down productivity.

As usual, some clever plugins and articles have arrived, but… surely, only extreme narcissists need apply….

As you are an internet user, you will no doubt understand how fun,  interesting and educational it is to read a blog - you may even own and update a  blog yourself - but if you have no traffic to your blog then  you might as well be writing to yourself.  Where do you find the content to  write the information for your posts - you need to ask yourself the question of  where do you research for content to write and publish on your blog.   PLR content articles can help you publish some ideas and writings on your blog,  that can help increase visitors to your site and increase the amount of hits to  your individual pages = increased traffic.  It is so obvious that you can use  these articles on your blog in order to increase the search engine traffic that  finds its way to your blog through google; this can then help you boost your  blog’s popularity and the amount of readers and subscribers that you have.
