WordPress Guides, Tips And Strategies For Successful Blogs

If you are a regular reader of Alex’s Internet marketing blog you might have seen my recent post about getting my PayPal account phished due to a tabnabbing attack. I’m happy to report that my account access has been fully restored after having verified my identity. The thieves didn’t get far, thanks to my trusted Password Manager. If it weren’t for me using a software that autofills my logins securely I don’t know whether I would have been so lucky…

I’ve been using both WordPress and XSitePro for a long while now and have come to love both a applications for various reasons. However, in the last year I’ve really fallen in love with XSitePro because of the following reasons …

It’s fast

I can build a new 5 page website in as little as 30 minutes with the software. Granted, I will need to have my content already written and lined up, but thanks to the software’s multi-page creation feature I can launch a new Adsense or affiliate site in less than one hour.

Today the unexpected happened; I was the victim of a PayPal phishing attack, even so I claim to be one hell of a smart cookie with web security. And before you ask, no, I didn’t click on a link in an email. I’m not THAT stupid. What I did instead is to type the URL into my browser by hand, and stupidly enough I never included the https:// bit. Call me slack, call me silly, but that’s what happened.

I have a confession to make… I’ve lost my blogging Mojo. If you see it someplace near you, please be gentle with it and return it to me via Express Post (or read on to find how you can win a PD book from Amazon). To help you find it, here is a short description: it’s fiery red in color, somewhat studious, always in search of inspiration.  At best, the Mojo is primed for action, ready to finger-bash the keyboard at over 100 words a minute; at its worst it is a frustrated entity with a lack of desire to fire up the blog editor…

Does my blogging Mojo sound familiar to you?

How about your Mojo?

What drives you to churn out blog post after blog post without traffic, sales and people commenting? With the rise of meta blogs (those are make money blogs for the uninitiated) came the idea that having a blog must be cool. Thousands upon thousands of people come online with the idea of wanting to make it big with their blog, then somewhere along the way they lose their Mojo.

I have to admit, I have a Love/Hate relationship with spammers on my blog:

• I Hate the time and effort that goes to waste to deal with them
• I Love the inspiration they provide me with to constantly evolve the methods of dealing with them and also Content I create on the topic

It seems that no matter how solid of a protection we put in place – it only works for a while and then we begin to see an influx of comments filled with bunch of BS that supposed to make me “feel good and approve their crap”.

Think again!
