  • Getting Site Sponsors

    Holy Moly! I could not believe what I was seeing and hearing  at the “how do get corporate sponsors” session at BlogWorld. I was amazed, astounded and somewhat stupified by the level of expertise I was hearing. So the speakers on the panel were agents at an agency that represented big companies like Pepsi, Johnson…

  • Ways to Generate Revenue

    I was working with a client this week on getting their site concept down and putting together their keyword theme map and site structure (which is one my services, by the way), when they asked about revenue generation.

  • Affiliate Network List

    Affiliate Network List

    Check here for a comprehensive affiliate network list. If you know of an affiliate network that isn’t on this list and should be, leave a comment to let us know about it.

  • Repurposing Content and Screen Capture

    So this week, I spent a good amount of time talking about repurposing content. If you have a bunch of stuff sitting around that you’ve already done (ie informative e-mails, recordings of phone calls, e-books, blog posts, etc)- you can reuse these.

  • How Google AdSense Works

      I got asked this question this week, “I don’t understand how Google Adsense Works. I and another blogger have about the same traffic and have ads in the same places but she makes a lot more money. What am I doing wrong?” Now this isn’t a bad question because Google Adsense isn’t the easiest…

  • Assess Your Blog’s Income Streams

    What if Google didn’t exist? What would that do to your blog’s income stream? Let’s examine how at risk your income is. You’ve worked really hard to get where you’re at now. Can you imagine how devastating it would be if that magically went away?

  • What Can You Learn From Your (Black Friday) Campaign?

    So I’m using “Black Friday” as a metaphor for any campaign you just undertook which also just ended. Just like list building, just like conferences and events, just like ebooks. . . a campaign is a tool to learn and grow your business.

  • Optimizing Google AdSense on your Site

    One of the most frequent questions I’m asked here at SavvyBlogging is about optimizing AdSense accounts (most recently in this very popular blog post). And a good question it is because rarely do I run across sites that are fully optimized.

  • The Science of Blogging – What You Need to Know to Increase Reach and Profitability

    There are few jobs easier than blogging. In its simplest form there is little to separate the writings of a private diary to those of a blogger. With a computer, internet access and a willingness to pour one’s thoughts out over a keyboard –BLOGGING in essence is easy. Unfortunately blogging as a business is anything…
