Ever get the feeling somebody’s trying to sell you some ‘Product Launch’ software or application. or a WordPress Launch Theme? Either that or the ‘Last WordPress Theme You’ll Ever Need’!
Man, I sure do! 3 new releases this month alone and that’s not including Kajabi!
The simple fact is that we have NO idea how many potential affiliate commissions we are losing out on if we just link to the site we are promoting using a standard affiliate link.
I think it sucks that all our hard work promoting something can get hijacked! Don’t you?
When reporting on innovations in the WordPress (self-hosted naturally!) Blogosphere every now and then something comes along that makes me go, “Wooh HOO!“…
…and write a post with way too many exclamation marks in it!!!
Synchronicity is a great thing isn’t it? Weird too! I’d been thinking about blog audio for a while now and thought a post was kind of overdue when, all of a sudden, some new options came to my attention.
Hmmm, thinks I – maybe a post showing the options is in order here…
Let’s take a step back for a minute and analyze how we find Keyword Phrases to target, optimize our content for, get ‘traffic’ which, if we’ve got it right, will equal sales – “YAY!” ( but is this the ONLY way?)
At the risk of flying into the face of all that’s holy me say NO!
I’m a great fan of Google Alerts. You type in your keyword phrase query and Google will send you an email about sites on the WWW that are relevant. A great way of finding ideas/news related to your market!
This came into my Inbox today! Blimey, I can promote myself on the telly!
You’ve been smart enough to get yourself a self-hosted WordPress blog so don’t let yourself down when it comes to WordPress security. Let’s be careful out there!
Are you really serious about protecting your WordPress blog from a hack attack?
Not everybody wants to Tweet! Some of us, horror of horrors, actually think Facebook is a load of bollox, wastes time and is an excuse for avoiding work while AT work!
BUT, getting on top of Social Networking is a ‘must do’ – how to reconcile?
I’m a massive fan of Anthony Fernando ( well it’s Doctor Anthony actually!) of Market Samurai. He’s recently come up with a new training/explanatory video which is MEGA!
The most succinct explanation of how basic blog monetization works I’ve seen to date.
It’s a lonely old business working from home, you can become a bit of a recluse if you’re not careful. Being in touch with like-minded people around the world helps.
This video reminds me of the possibility and power of global friendships!
It’s apparent to me that the majority of Web browsing will soon be done via cell phone rather than desktop, laptop, notebook or ‘pad’ (DISCUSS!). Well however the numbers play out one thing’s for sure… If your blog isn’t phone friendly you are going to lose a bunch of traffic!

I’ve had blogs hacked, I’ve had hosting companies let me down. I’ve installed bad plugins and uploaded dodgy themes and not upgraded WordPress when I should – in fact I’ve done about everything the wrong way before learning the right way! It’s not just down to knowing how to backup WordPress!
Anyone who’s had a good look around the Blog Briefing site knows that I have a lot of time for software designer Jonathan Leger’s applications such as The Best Spinner that I talk about in another ‘adding content’ post.
SEOpressor and the Scribe plugins? Forget about it! Here’s the thing, there are people with a certain mindset that like a To Do list – and yes, I’m one of them! But why would I pay somebody to write my To Do list for me? Writing the list is half the fun!
