I agree that flexibility is probably one of the rewards. People often ask if I get bored and I tell them "How can I get bored when I can do whatever I want to on pretty much any given day?" We don't have to sit at home if we don't want. We can work from Starbucks, the beach, you name it!
Just keep it up gallito89. It will pay off in the end. Like you, I started working on this when I was in school. I was a senior in college and had to go to take 2 extra summer courses before I graduated. Since all my friends had graduated I didn't know anyone at school so I stayed in my...
No, by one-way links I mean people voluntarily link to my site because they found it useful. When Google sees other sites linking to you without a link in return, they see that as a much more high-quality link. Traditional link exchanges (where someone places a link on their site and vice...
Most of my traffic to the site I'm referring to is from the search engines (it's not the sites in my sig file) and as you probably know all you can do with that is optimize your pages, promote your site and hope for as many backlinks. I honestly don't do much with this site as it's my secondary...
This is a great post.... love it! So many people think all they have to do is go to blogger.com, throw up a few google ads and BOOM here comes the money. If it were that easy, everyone would be rich.
Some eBooks and success stories like Ashley Qualls from whateverlife.com are inspiring but...
I agree with much of the advice above about finding a good niche but in my opinion, people don't talk enough about making a useful, fresh, unique site that people want to visit. New Webmasters often focus so much on "what program will make the most money?" or "what affiliate program is best?"...
Linda, I knew I could count on your forum for some Idol chatter. I have to say I was surprised Cooke won. I thought the teeny boppers would out-vote the rocker fans. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I think Cooke will end up being one of the top selling idols but then again...
True, but if you host your WordPress blog on your own domain then you can add AdSense, affiliate links, etc. Using a web host that offers cpanel makes setting up a self hosted WordPress blog super easy.
Well I'm a proud AI nerd and remember most of these performances listed. I definitely think David Cook's Billy Jean performance should be higher on the list. That was amazing.
I agree blogger is a great place to start. But once I got comfortable with blogging, I decided to move to WordPress for some of the reasons suggested above. Another issue I hear blogger users complaining about is creating static pages. Correct me if I'm wrong but there isn't a simple way to...
Whoops, ignore my above post. Larry just informed me there was a thread on this topic already so he moved my post here. So no need to answer again Linda. :) I was hoping to get to meet you! Shucks.
Hi tomsmith,
I believe SiteSell is working on private registration options but it isn't complete yet. So right now you have to host your domain with them too. Under their technical constraints it's not possible to host your domain somewhere else and then use SBI! as a host. Everything has...
Hi
First of all, there are many legal ramifications with that kind of site so I'm not sure how you'd go about allowing people to download music, movies, etc. in a legal manner.
But assuming you somehow got rights to do a site like that, I would think it's best to start off with a basic...
Very interesting point. Once I got into affiliate marketing I discovered how much I enjoy helping people through my content, etc. and it is a very rewarding process, especially when you receive emails from people thanking you. Sometimes it's the little things. Being helpful is always fun. :)
I've had to use their customer service a couple of times and always got an answer within 24-36 hours.
Yes, it works with MAC. Everything you need to build your site is done from login.sitesell.com. You will get a username and password to use and all your building, site management and tools...
I bought SBI! for the first time in 2003. I rushed and ignored many parts of the guide so of course my site failed because I didn't follow the instructions. I moved my site to another host with no problem.
When you register your domain name you own it, not SiteSell. So if you decide to go...
Hi all,
I'm the Lisa Linda spoke about and have nothing but good things to say about SBI!. But I do want to stress it is not an automatic money generator if you don't do the work. SBI! does not build and market your site. YOU do. But it's a fabulous step-by-step guide and program to use...
