Back when I was just getting started blogging I made a mistake that I think many new bloggers make - I started blogging about blogging because I wanted to share my excitement, my new experiences with my developing audience.
Most new bloggers who get sucked into that morass quickly veer into another vapid tangent, [...]

On Friday last week I wrote about why bloggers hate marketers. I can’t tell you the number of articles I’ve read about marketers who simply don’t understand bloggers and how awful most marketers are at trying to utilize bloggers as promotional instruments.
What none of these bloggers talk about, however, is the subject of why marketers [...]

There’s a great post on LifeHack today by Dustin Wax about "How To Get a Blogger To Promote Your Product." I originally began this blog entry as a comment on LifeHack in response to Dustin, but it quickly became evident that I’d need to dedicate an entire post to the subject.
As someone who is [...]

On Monday I answered a question from a reader regarding how to locate relevant blogs within your domain, and today I’m going to cover a second question from that same reader.
Again, I’m going to share my insight as well as ask my readers for theirs.

I received the following question from an AjaxNinja reader this past weekend and I thought I’d share [...]

business concepts and entrepreneurship?

Every time I write a post [...]

I’ve been due for a post about blogging for a while, and sorry I’m a bit behind. I spent the better part of this weekend getting Community Server 2007 (express edition) to work on my new blog, which I will be promoting in a couple of weeks.
In this post I’d like to discuss the influences [...]

The headline is not an exaggeration. I went from about 100 unique visits a day to 2000+ unique visits a day as a result of changing the way I wrote my headlines and it’s only been a week or two since I started improving them.
The first thing that my new headlines did was make it [...]

Digg has an immense amount of traffic and getting landed on the front page will send a tsunami of new readers to your blog or website, but getting onto the front page is incredibly difficult.
