  Thanks for a great year of tips on this awsome website of yours. We have got to the point of developing a FREE eBook for our site, which will be launched in a few days and our first OWN PRODUCT (another, intensely rich content-stuffed eBook) which we plan to launch after building our list a little more!

  Sincerely, thank you for all the great help you provide us bloggers. It is ALWAYS great to see a new post from ProBlogger!

  Dear Darren

  Great re-cap list, mate. Appreciated.

  I must say, as my blogging has become a little more important to me this past year, I have found myself coming back to your site over and over again.

  Your 31DTBBB eBook has changed the way I look at my blogging, and although I have worked through it a lot slower (because of other responsibilities) than I wanted to, it doesnt matter – bottom line is that I have learned a lot from it, and will continue to, I am sure.

  Do I want to become a full-time blogger, no. But, would I like to be able to create great products and make some money through my blogs (whilst helping people with the content, such as yourself), of course!

  Keep up the great work – we kinda depend on you!!!

  Best,
  Chris

  I think all those posts have been very useful Darren, i guess most of them include selling your own product, this year many bloggers have started using ebooks and memberships to monetize their sites, I think banners and text links are dying fast and we’ll have to adopt to the new methods. I have written an article on monetizing your site using these methods, which I call as imperial methods, please do allow me to post this Darren http://dumblittleblogger.blogspot.com/2009/12/imperial-monetization-methods-for-your.html

  By the way this year is going to be memorable as this is when I started to earn money and started my first blog.

  The other approach requires content depth and detail. This is an excellent example of timeless content with a focus on a very specific audience. Steve has written an article called, “How to Make Money from Your Blog” and I encourage anyone considering blogging for dollars to read this article.

  Coincidence–$30,000 is exactly the 2010 minimum-income goal I have set (to earn from all forms of freelance writing, not just blogging). I notice that none of your articles discuss the possibility of straight sales of articles for posting on others’ blogs. Considering that you emphasize actually making money, maybe that’s understandable. Why is it that corporations pay thousands of dollars to have text written for a Web page, periodicals pay two or three hundred dollars for an article, royalty book publishers give their writers large advances–but no one wants to pay more than a few dollars for a blog post? It’s not because blogs are shorter (the price is still comparative peanuts when calculated per word), and it’s definitely not because they require higher overhead.

  It is 1st time ever I wrote on somebody blog. I follow your regularly and find it very inspiring.
  I have a question, my blog is 100% japanese and my audience is about 3/4 browsing my blog via their mobile phone, I am missing all the adsense sales and there is no way to sell a pdf for japanese mobile phone users.
  Any ideas how to increase rentability (sales) in these conditions?

  Great advice and very true. One of the most important things bloggers, or any business, can do is try not to give up. Even when times are tough it�s important to be there for your readers and customers because they will remember you in a positive light once things get better and you will be rewarded for your efforts.

  One of the key elements of article marketing is to boost traffic to your website and produce high quality. Generating backlinks will give you better rankings on search engine result pages and consenquently more visibility. To accomplish this, you definitely need to use automation tools. Working on article marketing without some automated tools can get really overwhelming and time consuming.

• article marketing strategy

  March 28th, 2010 8:04 pm

  An article marketing strategy it’s one of the easiest and most targeted strategies to get consumers , but if your strategy consists in merely submitting an article or two each week, your results will be probably very poor, that’s why you definitely should invest some money in automation softwares. Article submitter and spinner tools are the best ones you can use that are going to massively help you in your article marketing efforts.
