What I'm Reading
In between books at the moment. I read all the time!
I just read a great post at Internet Marketing for Mommies about using 2010 as a way to focus on one task so I could find success. Like most beginners (in my case, I’m a pseudo-beginner) it is easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information that is out there. Read Full Story
I thought I’d spend some time talking about my backlinks strategy. In my last post, I talked about Using Niche Blogger to Create Niche Sites. An essential part of my business model is to create backlinks which are basically links coming into my niche sites. Read Full Story
I thought I’d talk a bit about creating niche sites. My niche site plan has three basic levels and I ultimately use The Niche Blogger to teach me and keep me motivated. But the secret is that I don’t really use it at first. Let me explain. Read Full Story
In a lot of ways, I feel like I am starting over – or at least coming full circle. These past few months have brought a lot of professional changes.
I no longer write for clients. The writing wasn’t very fulfilling and I wasn’t having fun anymore. Whatever writing is to me (profession, hobby, little of both) whatever I write needs to be enjoyable.
After a few years of embracing social networking, it lost it’s appeal. Overnight I canceled my twitter and facebook ac... Read Full Story
I’ve decided to do an experiment. The topic of the blog is just about one of the lowest earners because there is so much competition on this subject. And less face it, though this blog is informative and pleasant, there are others out there that are great, too. I’m sure you can think of a few… Read Full Story
I’ve decided to work on this blog a little more and I’ve chosen a blueprint - Blogging to the Bank. I’ve used this resource off and on to make my blogs better. What I love about it is that it isn’t just a “plan to make money”. The writer focuses on teaching us how to give the reader a great experience and a blog filled with wonderful, engaging content.

Are you wondering how to make quick cash with Associated Content? Well, ever since I’ve stopped writing for clients, my income dropped a little bit. It’s going back up because of my website efforts, but not as fast as I would like. So, I decided to use Associated Content to make up the difference. The other alternative would have been to get more clients, and that’s really not something I want - a deadline driven lifestyle isn’t conducive to my goals. Read Full Story

Everyone has their own story about why they work from home. What’s mine? It’s not that I dislike office jobs. I could probably tolerate it if I needed to. I just don’t love it. As annoying as it is when I need to stay up late to work on a project because I chose to go to the movies during the day instead, I still love it because that means I have freedom. Read Full Story
