It’s Linkbombing Time! - 2/26/08
Looks like loads of domainers will make good money with the new .asia TLD this year. Although the pre-application opened three months ago, this was the first time I heard of it.
The minimum registration is for two years for $40, not bad as a lot of generic names are still available for pre-application at Godaddy - In fact, I’ve ordered 15 pre-applications today.
Learn how to advertise from a 14 year old
Click here to continue →Carl Ocab is a great blog to highlight here on Advertising Blogger, specifically because it’s a great example of what you can do online if you work hard and set your mind to it. If a 14-year-old kid can make a ton of advertising cash with a blog—even with school and chores getting in the way—then there’s really no reason why you can’t, too. And no, there isn’t a big secret to how Carl got where he is. He…
About The New WordPress Theme
A lot of people have been asking me lately “Where did you get your theme?” “Who designed it?” “Can I use it on my blog too?”
Actually, this post about the new design was only half the story. You see, I ordered a PSD blog design from Design Guru Ryan for $250 to get a completely unique one. His first concept was this:
Although the design was clearly unique, the colors didn’t blend that well and some parts of the blog did not get that much importance like the signup box - that I wanted to prioritize.
After receiving the design, I requested a full revision with the colors I wanted and some more fine tunning. I then got this second one:
I was stunned with the sparkle of the red shadings so I said to myself “This must be it”. Although I didn’t feel that much comfortable with the logo and the featured post box,…

This post is sponsored by Mini-Site Gallery and posted by Charles Lau.
If you are looking for a suitable website template to sell your digital product, you would probably have difficulty choosing the right template through the website galleries which are freely available for download. Why am I saying so? If you have noticed, most of the templates are built with the aim of a corporate look where you have some of the menus such as “About us”, “Products and Services” and “Contact Us”. You don’t actually need them in your website since your purpose is to sell your digital product effectively. What you really need is a good sales copy where the words are there to sell to your potential customer effectively.
Mini-Site Template Gallery
I have not found such specialized galleries before until I have found Mini Site Gallery. MiniSiteGallery.com is a mini-site template gallery website. It is a place for mini-site…

Err! Enough with the spiffy 3rd voice introduction.
So yeah, I’ve just celebrated my first year anniversary, bought a cake and took a good glance of the past. I’ll also be having a contest, but there’s more than that.
Blogging has taught me hundreds of things since then. Today, I’ve compiled them and picked the best to share it with you. I’d suggest you bookmark it, print it out and save it in your desktop.
But before that, I would like to give a little plug here to those who have helped me succeed a lot of things online, blogging and in life. Special mention goes to the Lord God for guiding me, helping me and in all of these things. My parents who have supported me all the…

This article is guest posted by Dianne Ronnow.
My favorite way to get traffic to my sites and blogs has to be article marketing. It’s really a very simple concept and the best kind of a win-win situation.
The first step in getting your site noticed is to have a site that is designed in a way that is search engine friendly. That is called SEO (search engine optimized). This is mostly a web designing issue. We will assume that you are starting with an SEO optimized site. Carl has some great advice for optimizing websites here: http://www.carlocab.com/golden-seo-tips
The next step in getting the search engines to notice your site, is to understand them. The search engines’ whole purpose is to find quality content– that is what the Internet is all about. Information. And the more content (related to your site’s most important keywords) that you have, the more that search engines will…

This post is sponsored by Socialmatic and posted by Charles Lau.
Have you ever had frustration trying to submit your url to so many social bookmarking sites? There are many social bookmarking sites for us to enjoy various web contents. They have been bookmarked because there are interesting contents to look out for in these social bookmarking sites. And I can tell you I really love surfing them whenever I am free. These social bookmarking sites provide an easy way for web owners to present to the readers. But there is one problem with all these social bookmarking sites…
They are independent from one another and hence they have their own traffic to take care of to continue to get these readers interested. As website owners, especially for bloggers, we tend to have ongoing articles which may interest the readers. But to submit one after another can be a real boring task to…
