I thought I would spread the love of a long pinging service list for all of you to ping your blogs. Now, there have been a lot of controversy over rather or not pinging so many services were good or bad. This is still really unclear. Some say that if you ping too many services it can hurt your blog by making it look like spam, others say that it can cause your website to slow down, some say that it is okay to ping all the services, it might slow your website down but it will still help you get traffic. I would really love your thoughts on pinging services. I want to know what experiments you have used to voice your concerns over pinging your blog. I am going to try a few of these and see how it does. My goal is to create a massive list of pinging services and so far I have come up with this list. I will add more as I find them. I am hoping that I haven’t added them more than once. If you have a favorite pinging service or top pinging service list, please let me know so I can check it o...

Oh the great controversy over keyword placement strategy. This debate has been going on for years. I have actually found a lot of websites that contradict one another on where to place keywords and keyword density. If you read the blogging world of SEO, you will find that this is one of the most blogged about topics. Everyone wants to know if they are using too many keywords or not enough keywords. This is the question of the last few years. So, I am going to break it down for you the best that I can. I will show you a keyword placement strategy that has worked for many, including myself. Keyword in the Title of Your Post This is simple; only one keyword phrase used in the title of the post. Place the keyword at the beginning of the title, always at the beginning. Keyword Density Keyword density is defined as the percentage of keywords used in your post; yes, it is as simple. After researching for years on the different keyword placement strategy, I  found that ...

A domain name says it all. If you are new to blogging and need to know how to get started blogging so you can start making money online, a domain name is the first step.    Sure, there are free blogging platforms such as blogger or wordpress , but a domain name lets people know that you mean business, and it makes it easier for people to find your blog. A short, to the point, domain name is all you need.    Need another reason to have a domain name   Most free blogging platforms, such as blogger and wordpress , don't allow the blogger to customize it like it would if you had a domain name and hosting. I use Godaddy for this website; they are fairly cheap, and often they allow you to get a domain name either free or for very little when you order hosting. There are other good sites that sell domain names such as Hostgater .    Should you buy domain names from wordpress or blogger   I wouldn't think that this would be very wise. Both of these are ...

 Increasing your pageviews is important to your blog or website; you cannot earn any money if people are not reading your content. This post is sharing some ideas that work, and have worked, for years. Some of these ideas are old, some are new. How to Increase Your Pageviews by Sharing  your posts via social media platforms Share and share often. I have an account with every social media networking site that I can find. Not all people are going to use every site ever day; some prefer one site over the other. If you sign up for as many  social media networks  as you can and submit your post/articles to them, you raise your chances of getting more pageviews. It works! How to Increase Your Pageviews by Targeting Social Media Audiences I love how a lot of social media networking sites are now allowing its users to use such things as the hashtag; making it easier to find a post on a specific topic. Take advantage of the hashtag or whatever your social ...

 I recently got asked if I would allow an individual to  write an article  for my blog. I assume that what they meant was, could they write a blog post. I also assume that this individual did not know the difference between a blog post and an article. Conversational Language of a Blog Post Conversational language on a blog post is more like you are talking to a close friend. It is like you are having a conversation with an individual that you have known for years. Blog post do not have to be formal at all. Blog post are supposed to invite the readers in and create conversation. Blog post also tend to have the writer’s opinion more than an article does. This does not mean that a blog post is not based on facts. Blog post are editorial pieces at best. Conversational Language of an Article Articles are meant to be informative, leaving false information completely out, and the opinion of the writer at a minimal. Articles are normally formal and more objective. Most articles d...

  Some of you might find this humorous; I find it rather irritating but nonetheless, I am going to write about it to get it off my chest. Ironically; this was something that this guy, who this story is based off of, told me to do. He always said that I bottle things up until I finally exploded. Well, today was one of those days when I finally exploded and I exploded to the max. I traveled from Kellyville, Oklahoma to Bixby, Oklahoma to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and then to Stillwater, Oklahoma which is where this story took place. I was already tired from all the traveling and the lack of sleep I got the night before. I had planned on meeting this guy, my ex, earlier but he decided to sleep in late so he missed my text so I drove to Oklahoma City, bypassing Stillwater, just to turn around and have to drive all the way back out to Stillwater to meet him. I pull up and he is working on his car, and I must say that he looked rather hot but then again, I do like a guy when he has been wo...

I started a blog almost two months ago. I heard that it was a great way to get information out to the public. I wasn't sure if it would work at first but I thought that I would give it a try anyway. What I had discovered not only opened my eyes to the Internet but had also brought more page views to my articles as well as other things that I was offering to the public. My blog started out to be pretty simple and needed a lot of work done to it. I decided that I would write something in it everyday until I ran out of things to write. My result was amazing. I noticed that more and more people were checking out my stuff and that in return I was making more money. I had also set up a google adsense account so that I would make a little extra cash on the side just for posting up ads and different material that google was trying to get out there on the Internet. I was amazed that I could make money just by doing something that I love. It took me about one hour to get my bl...
