Where to start with blogging?
The above comments are all right on target but just a couple of points for clarity. First, and most important, while WordPress is clearly the best route to go and it is free to use, you do not want to go with the free WordPress.com but to set up your own domain on a regular host and let them...- James Salmons

How Do You Keep It All Straight?
With a little tongue in cheek for a response, how could it be so difficult when all over the place we hear people telling us we can set up a six figure income site in ten minutes?

Hi Everyone!
Hello Angie, and welcome. Jack of all trades I may be but I would only claim to have mastered a few. But I hope to join you in making affiliate a new conquest. It is a great "trade" to learn I think. Sounds like you have something to share in this area as well as seeking to learn.- James Salmons

In this case by affiliate sellers (not marketers) I was referring to companies affiliated with Amazon to sell their products...- James Salmons

Hello everyone!
My name is James Salmons. I used my full name because you already have another James and I have never developed an interest in the typical web names—they are OK but I have so many interests I find it hard to think of myself being identified by any one of them. While I am working on a number of...- James Salmons
