This blog has so much useful information I cant even begin to compare. I have used it so many times to figure out what to do next, how to do it, and why. They way they explain everything is wonderful. I wanted to recommend a series that they wrote on getting ranked. They are speaking of a page rank. Which is mainly used by Google but other searched do it as well. In this 5 part series they go over most every detail and help you understand how to get it done.

Using a search engine is not exactly complicated, and that’s the point. However, what search engines do to produce those results is a different story. There is a lot that goes into how search engines work but it all comes down to a few basic things. Search engines crawl, index, process, and rank. From these basic actions search engines are able to determine the results that will show up when you use them.

So definitely check it out and explore their site, as there is alot of useful info on advertising and blogging there.

A little about me

| October 22nd, 2006

I am 24. I have been married 2 times now, about to start my 3rd try. :-) But I have learned from my mistakes, I always got married after only a few short months of knowing the other person, thinking ‘this is the one’. Then soon realizing it wasn’t. So with this one, we have been together over 3 years, engaged for a year of that and still going well. I have 2 children and work from home. I have done quite a few home businesses, some were successful, some were not. The most successful has been blogging and web design. I really enjoy both but took a break from web design recently as it was not fun for me any more. And I am not very creative if I dont enjoy what I am doing.

I do not claim to be an expert, I have not gone to college for business, only computer programming, and I do not run a huge successful home business. But what I can offer is my results and information I find as I research and a few tips and advice along the way. See, before I start anything, I do ALOT of research, and try to get a feel for what it entails. In doing that, I have learned alot about marketing, SEO, blogging, scams and the works. This blog is sort of a repository for all of that information. Whether it is a great site to find tools or resources or just the results of a project. I hope to help provide you with some starting point in your next project.

Writing for money

| October 15th, 2006

I am sure you have heard of it; writing blog posts for money, it is a great concept if you do it right, if you only promote the site and products you approve of it is far better than google adsense as you can control what appears on your blog. But I have seen many that don’t do that, that write about virtually anything that gets offered to them, and that makes a blog loose credibility. Fast. So, If you do choose to add this to your blogging routine, stay hones with your self and your readers. Here is one I personally recommend. I have many friends whom have been paid, and my other blog uses this every few days or so. Great owners and support.

Edit 12/11/06 : PPP now has affiliate banners to help in getting referrals. I have added mine to this post.
