How do you market your blog?
I’m starting a series of posts that I’ve decided to call ‘The Pessimists Guide to Blogging’… over the next couple of weeks (perhaps even longer if these posts are met with a little more than a dull dose of apathy), I’m going to look at one rather pessimistic view of the blogging life and see [...]
Australian Pro-Bloggers Darren Rowse, Karen Cheng and Neerav Bhatt were interviewed on mainstream Australian TV news today (shown on Channel 10, one of three main commercial TV channels shown Australia-wide).
The Interview focused on the increase in people working from home and making a great income from blogging - it was nice to see a brief [...]
One of my favourite bloggers is Seth Godin, I always find the time to read his posts.
Seth is a marketing mastermind, and while most of the topics he talks about are basic principles, they are things that many people get wrong and ones that we need to be constantly reminded of as bad marketing habits [...]
In the past couple of days FriendFeed have added ‘rooms’ to their service. Essentially a room is like a forum, except that you can manage it within your overall lifestream.

I’ve been on EntreCard, what - four days now. I’d hardly call myself an expert, but I’ve had a pretty good time playing around with it over the past few days and I thought I’d share my experiences with you and give you an idea of how I’m approaching it.
I’m not suggesting that what I’m [...]
Ok, I’m new to EntreCard - you know that, but it seems like I’ve jumped in at the right time… they’ve just released a free 19 page eBook that details all the inside info from the basics of ‘getting started’, to advanced topics such as dropping strategies and reducing your bounce rate.
Admittedly, the advanced topics [...]
I came across a good post today on Problogger, and it’s very pertinent to what we’re talking about here so I thought I’d share it with you and and expand on a couple of things in the off-chance that you don’t read Problogger and have missed it!
The Post is called ‘Understanding the Blog Lifecycle to [...]
Most bloggers want their readers to subscribe to their content - the whole reason we do what we do is to be heard. Relying on our visitors to remember to check the blog for new content is far from ideal… no matter how much they like it, one day they will ‘forget’ and that means [...]
One of the great things I like about Twitter is ‘overhearing’ conversations between people you follow, and others they are following - it’s a great way to find even more interesting people to follow.
Unfortunately the people at Twitter don’t seem to agree with me, a new update to their blog today: How @replies work on [...]
I was cleaning my pool today - it needed it.
The weather has turned cooler and maintenance has been non-existent for the last month or so. There was a thick layer of green sludge on the bottom, sticks and leaves floating on top, and for the last few weeks a family of ducks have decided it [...]
