WordPress Web 2.0 Spot-Er

I find it absolutely amazing how some well known Internet Marketers talk about integrity, business, etc and yet, when it comes to the basics - operate on the principals of “take money and run”. Lack of basic support is absolutely amazing and simply shows to me that once you are rolled into whatever profile they expect - you turn into this..

Yeah… buddy! You have been milked and your actions were recorded, analyzed and will be turned into next Latest And Greatest Product that will “surely show you How You Can do Same”!

Tracking your blog traffic could be the best thing you ever did if you aim to rank well in search engines. There is one simple reason for me to say this. That reason is “link clusters”. Courtney Tuttle wrote a great post on link clusters and what they can do for your rankings the other day.

There is no point in repeating what he said, since he explains it all too well already. But I wanted to touch on this and show you how to take a step back from what he recommends you do and actually track your traffic with ease.

Flickr Is Evil to Your Blog!

As someone who provides an option to get additional training that accompanies my main product using a membership model I know first hand how nice it is to get paid for your work on autopilot. Or to be exact - get paid monthly (or however often you set it to) for a sale made once. Membership sites are a model that many successful Internet Marketers implement and use for one simple reason - recurring profits, assuming that content is worth it.

But running a membership site is not simple if you try to do all the work yourself. In fact it becomes extremely time consuming, as I have learned first hand and requires a lot of effort. After all - to keep people subscribed we have to provide high quality information. There are several solutions to this and in this post I want to share one, created by my friend Anthony Hull that beats anything I have seen before…

Like a kitchen pantry, a blog pantry contains all the goodies, the seasoning and the secret ingredients for our blogs. One is forgiven to think that some bloggers seem to have all the secret ingredients while others struggle to even be noticed.

Much of this has actually nothing to do with the blog pantry itself, but more so with the blogger. Attributes such as endurance, determination, social abilities, hard work and longevity can often be contributing factors of making a particular blog successful.

It’s funny, here I am raving about how good my host is and then things suddenly go wrong. A few days ago I instructed my hosting provider to upgrade my server to a reseller account. I wanted a more stable environment and more bandwidth, as I’m heavily into niche marketing right now.

All was fine until now. Suddenly my last two posts are gone and so are the latest comments on my blog. As if they never even been there.

The purpose of this post is to show you how important it is to make regular blog backups. To do this I use the WordPress Database Backup Plugin. It works a treat and does the job every time.
