A few days ago I added another widget to this blog. You can see it on the right headed “From The Blogosphere”. Inside the box are links to other people’s blogs, hopefully on the same theme as this one. Clicking on any of these links in the “Blogosphere” takes you to that blog entry (opens […]

“And it better had be”, I can hear you mutter!
This ties in with the article: “For SEO Perfectionists”. I, too, have had some difficulties understanding the concepts behind the new approach which Google has been adopting towards ranking websites in the Search Engine Results Pages (”SERPS”).
Fortunately, Jeff Alderson, whom I mentioned above, has produced an […]

It’s a long time since I went to the CoffeeCup website. I used a lot of their f’ree stuff in my early webmastering days.
So I thought I’d pay them another visit to see what they had for f’ree.
They’ve certainly got a lot of stuff I hadn’t seen before including an HTML editor, a zip/unzip software, […]

Checking my records recently, I found to my surprise that I have been involved with the “Internet Marketing Center” (”IMC”) since 1998 - nearly 10 years! I guess that indicates the trust I have in the guys over in IMC.
IMC was originally founded by the late Cory Rudl, who was tragically killed in a car […]

If you’ve struggled to understand the complexities of Search Engine Optimisation (”SEO”) you’ll know that there are so many factors you’re supposed to take into account to achieve high rankings for your web pages and your websites.
Now I’m talking here, not about single-page sales websites, but content-rich sites.. typically, those which generate cash from a.dvertising […]

This week’s guest writer, Robert Williams, is a man after my own heart.. if there’s an easy way to get a result, take it!
After a rather unnecessary introduction (why eBooks are so popular etc.), Robert comes up with five ways to create a report or an eBook without having to write anything yourself.
Two of the […]

A year or so ago, I talked about the usefulness of “tooltips”. These are little boxes which appear on a web page when you “mouse over” text or images. I talked about a f’ree online service where you could build these “tooltips” by just completing a web form and then copying and pasting the generated […]

I’m no great graphic designer! Most of the graphics I use on my pages have been created by other people. Legally, of course!
Either the graphics are in the public domain or I’ve bought a graphics collection or I’ve hired a graphics designer to produce stuff to my specification.
Yesterday, I paid 17 bucks for a huge […]

That’s how a recent email to me started. It came from an “Update” subscriber whom I’ll simply refer to as “Larry X”.
Larry was not a happy bunny. He said:
“Why couldn’t you just let me sit on my–er–uh–couch? Eat snacks. Throw my bills in the trash can. Watch my game of American football. And simply vegetate?
“Don’t […]

I’m an enthusiastic user of “Private Label Rights” (”PLR”) products. I like to be different and I like everything which I sell or give away to be different. As I’ve said before, “differentiation” is a powerful marketing strategy which can eliminate your direct competitors.
PLR material allows me to produce unique products very quickly, without the […]
