There are so many of us jewelers out there so, I'm looking for a way to: 1) distinguish my designs from all the others 2) attract people to my website and 3) make lots of sales so I can move from my day job to being a full-time jewelry artist. I have someone to write a blog for me but I totally stuck on what the blog should be about... Catablogging might just be the answer. So I'll read more about that but in the meantime... I'd sure love any suggestions for discussion topics that are of interest and what to avoid discussing. Constructive criticism on my webstie is welcome, too. Thanks!!

I have a blog, still in infancy, born in January, about Marbles. Toy marbles--I collect. I want to sell, and have also set up an eBay store. I have experimented a little with products on my blog, and have sold a few. Your post inspires me to put everything for sale in a second Typepad blog. The idea of including lots of information and encouraging comments resonates! I admire your ability to help others in this way. I have found that I have a fear of posting on my blog. It is hard to commit to words about something in public, even something I love. It is one thing to post on a forum, that's easy. But posting on my blog. . . it's different. Thanks for the help!

Then I stumbled on this layout. Can I access this templete? If not, is there anything close. I'm about to launch a commercial site with two products (inventions) for backpackers. Please let me know if this templete is custom or if it's a templete that's been customized. Maybe you can help me solve this? Thanks, Mark I have been looking at template layouts for about a month.

The problem I'm having with selling niche products is that they are niche products. Seems like you almost have to go where the money is...but then, that's where eveyone else already is. Because I'm inexperienced with this, maybe Darren can speak to this point more on how niche products can be marketed with the blog. In my wildest dreams, I would have never thought that I would wake up on a Saturday and by random chance find a site talking about niche marketing and blogs. It's almost overwhelming to think that I have been missing out on these topics and this information for so long. Am I too far behind the eight ball to catch up? Darren, I have really enjoyed reading just a little of the information that is on your site (problogger.net) along with the posts of the people replying. I will definitely come back and read more from you and those that have posted. Thank you so very much and best wishes to all. Greg http://www.DiCaprioBengals.com Hope I’m in the right section here.

Unfortunately her sales have not been too good (although admittedly I haven't stepped in to help just yet - naughty me!). I'm thinking this might be a worthwhile approach for her, and am now brainstorming some ways she can do something 'unique' that these blogs are likely to link to. One of my clients, a bamboo clothing company (yes, you can make clothes from it!) launched their site a week ago, and have already got a whole ton of sales from a few mentions on eco-blogs. It works!
