- Lifehacker: the book has now started shipping through Amazon. I’ve ordered mine. Another example of leveraging a blog to make money.
- Aviva Directory has a list of 99 tips to do branding on the cheap. It’s written for Web Startups but a lot of it could apply to bloggers.
- Are any ProBlogger readers coming to the Underground Seminar (aff) that I’m speaking at in Washington DC in March?
- Loren writes 9 ways to get banned by search engines.
- Chris Gilmer asks ‘what motivates web workers?‘. Go have your say. For me it’s a combination of enjoyment of what I do, helping others, setting myself goals, being rewarded well and meeting some great people.
- Don’t forget that every genuine comment that you leave on ProBlogger (on any post) between now and 25 December gives you another chance to win my 10 top books for 2006.

My name is Darren Rowse and I’m a full time Blogger making a living from blogs like 
I went to the link for the underground seminar. It leads to a cheesy flash video and they want you to provide your email without any information about the seminar. The whole thing reeked of scam.
What gives? I just wanted to know the details because I live in the DC area.
John, there’s a little more information on this when I announced I’m going. It’s an internet marketing seminar which I was invited to go and talk about with regards to blogging. The promotion is typical of the internet marketing crowd but I guess that’s who they are mainly appealing to.
I just found your site, and wow! You have a lot of great tips. I have been struggling to earn with my Adsense, so I look forward to reading all that you have to say about that. Keep up the good work!
Wanted to add another link to your speedlinking:
The 2006 Weblog Award Winners – The winners of the anual weblog awards have been announced.
A little bit sad to read that ProBlogger.net doesn’t win this award this year. Well, may be it’s categorized in Business category – wrong category for this blog.
PS: Sorry for double post, forgot to add the link in the previous comment.
What I like most about web related work and (potential) earning strategies is the fact that it functions pretty much the same- whether you’re in Australia, or in Serbia, as I am.
