Okay, maybe that’s a slight exageration, but just look around, blogs are sloping off, into long forgotten, dark corners of the web and just fading out of existence at an astronomicalrate. Henceforth we can refer to these as Suicidal Blogs!

Why?

Well, lets’s face it, blog writers (me included) are fickle, all we care about is becoming popular (and rich   ).

If the blog they write doesn’t reap traffic in the the way they expect it to, they tend to neglect it, sometimes to the point it can’t Read the rest of this entry »

There has been a lot of confusion about using the content from your own website and posting it as a fresh article on EzineArticles.  Many believed thatEA would consider this as derivative content, which of course, EA doesn’t allow.

I’ve maintained for a long time that using your own unique content is NOT in contradiction to EA rules.  By this I mean that you can post an article onto your own site, make sure that it is indexed in Google, and then post exactly the same article onto EA.

Now, Christopher Knight the CEO of EzineArticles has posted a video confirming this.

Have a look as he clears up some common misconceptions about what qualifies as “derivative content”.

PLR Dashboard

If you’re anything like me than you have hundreds, or more likely thousands of random PLR articles scattered about your hard drives.  I would be willing to bet that you even have complete collections that you never got around to unzipping.

So what do you intend to do with them?  They are not much use to you if you don’t know where they all are, or even what they all are.

I pondered this question for ages and even though about setting up a database of all articles and adding tags so I could sort them and search for items suitable for particular niches. But, to be honest, that seemed like far too much trouble. So I started hunting round the Internet for a piece of software that would do that for me. Read the rest of this entry »

I posted a few days ago about the Free Traffic System, and how it will post your spun article to 30 blogs potentially gaining you many relevant backlinks.

But to use this system you need to actually spin your article.

For those of you who don’t know what spinning an article is here is a brief overview…

Article Spinning is the process in which a copywriter or a website owner creates a new article out of an existing article by rewriting it. Typically words and phrases are substituted to put a new spin on the article.

There is software available that can do this automatically, producing tens or even hundreds of articles from a single document. But I find that they often produce gobbledygook. Read the rest of this entry »

I found a great site which allows you to easily add your own link to other people’s videos on YouTube. You can then get the embed code and add the video, complete with your own link to a website or blog.

The site is called LinkedTube and you can get to it here… http://www.linkedtube.com/

It is really simple to use, and more importantly… It works!

Here’s one I made earlier…

I added the ‘Real Review’ text and the button that says ‘More Info’.

Many thanks to Soggy over at Build a niche store blog

As Soggy says in his post, don’t overdo it with any type of backlinking strategy.  Spread your links across articles, videos, blogs, forums and web 2.0 sites.  You need it to look natural.  I have noticed that Bing seems particularly suspicious of agressive backlinking.
