The Internet Has No Secrets (Traffic or Otherwise) - Or - When To Stop Buying Into Things And Just Do It

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

NOTE: Before you get going, the title of this post is “secrets” not “methods.” People come up with all sorts of new ways of doing things, and open all sorts of new social media areas, and we give credit where credit is do. But they aren’t “secrets.”

* * * * * * * * * *

For years, and I do mean years, we’ve been online explaining, demonstrating, and, in many instances, doing the hands-on work to help you be successful online.

And, throughout these years, we - like you - have been (and continue to be) inundated with special reports, new software, e-books, videos and more all ranting and raving how this is “the one.”

Rarely is anything “new.”

Let me explain by example before I continue:

Ten years ago, a script was developed that (more…)

How Much Is Your Blog Worth - Goofing Off On A Sunday

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Doing my Entrecard, Blogcatalog, visiting other people’s blogs thing this beautiful Sunday morning, and I came across:

How Much Is Your Blog Worth

courtesy of my visit to BloggerFocus.

Not expecting much (even BloggerFocus was laughing with their returned amount of $0.00) I went ahead and visited the link… just to see.

You’ll see our result in the left hand sidebar - wow what a surprise!

Now who in the world would pay us that much we have no idea, but the really neat thing is that in terms of “value” it does appear that all our very hard work to promote and interact within the blog community (and outside it, too) is really “paying off.”

We work daily on using the very features and resources we tell you about here on ourselves. I call it “work” only because yes it is in the promote your website (blog) category. However, nothing could be further from the truth. Getting out and about visiting other people’s websites is fun, informative, and common sense.

You want to be discovered, right? Well to do so you must be willing to get your hands dirty and interact.

“Good things come to those who wait” is so misleading.
“Good things come to those that go after good things” should take its place.

QUESTIONS:

What major form of interacting and promoting do you use?

What do you consider a complete waste of time and why?

What is your blog worth?
