Content is King: How to Beat Google With Great Blog Writing
January 12, 2008
While RSS feeds are all the rage on many blog sites these days, if you are thinking of including another site’s articles and daily blog text in your content for your website, stop thinking that way right now. This is called “scraping” and it is illegal in every sense of the word. Stealing full content from somebody else’s site is not only plagiarism, it is just plain unethical as well.
Google will not blink once as it bans your site permanently from its search engine pages, and that is just the start. No one will want to do business with you and you will be seen forever as an internet charlatan just looking for a quick buck, the worst kind of internet scum. It’s much better to just start writing as many content-heavy articles as you possibly can for your site. If you aren’t able to write worth a lick, pay a professional who can. You’re much better off in the long run.

6 Steps to Making Money Because of Your Blog
January 12, 2008
Bloggers make money from blogging in an every increasing array of ways - but in general they can be broken down into:
- making money directly from their blog (where the blog makes money - typically from advertising or affiliate programs)
- making money indirectly because of their blog (where the blogger makes money because of their blog - for example by landing a book deal, consulting or a job)
Much has been written about making money directly from blogs - but the opportunity for blogs to be leveraged to make money indirectly is something that I think has great potential and which is largely ignored by most bloggers.

7 Ways to Resuscitate a boring links post
January 12, 2008
The links post is steeped in tradition. After all, the very first blogs were little more than a collections of links.
As blogs have multiplied, changed, expanded and evolved, the links post has remained, essentially, unchanged. It’s a weekly fixture on most blogs, which is actually a little strange, when you think about it.
Has one of your weekly link round-ups ever bought in a lot of traffic? Has it ever been successful on social media? Has it ever received a lot of links? Probably not.
The links round-up post is one that rarely aims high. It serves to give your readers something to chew on while you take a day off. It demonstrates appreciation for some of the content you’ve enjoyed over the week. It sends out trackbacks, helping you take the first step in networking with other bloggers. These are all fine things. They’re the reason why link posts have lasted so long without changing or adapting.

Don’t Just Have a Blog - Learn to Think Like a Blogger
January 9, 2008
Last week I was chatting to a new blogger and he asked me
“how do you manage to keep coming up with post ideas for my blogs?”
It’s a question I get a fair bit - and one I’ve struggled to answer… until recently.
It sounds odd that I don’t know how I keep ideas coming - but I’ve never really understood how I’m able to do it - it just seems to happen quite naturally.
What clicked for me was a conversation with my personal trainer who said something that switched a light on for me.
