Wow, it’s the first ever Saturday of October! I guess it’s a brand new start for some of you. Anyway, I’m here to share some great reads that I have encountered this week.
Shane from WhoIsShaneWoods.com gives some tips on affiliate marketing. He tells us which programs to look out for, and shares a couple of pointers. On a side note, I will be reviewing his blog some time this week, so you better watch out for it. It’s going to be exciting, I’m telling you. 
Mattaw from MoneyBites tells us that taking action is the ONLY way to make money online. I wholly agree with him; how can one make money if he’s being idle all day? I know there are some autopilot sites which can generate a good stream of income, but if you don’t work on it at first, then you’re not going anywhere.
Ikki from Rauru.com had written a guide on how to create killer titles for your blog posts. I know most of you guys are bloggers, so I wanted to share this with you. Remember, your title is your first (and most probably your last) chance to captivate your readers. Without a great title, your awesome content would not be given any attention!
Jason from The University Kid shares a great tip on how to gain traffic by making use of social groups. He had a pretty good idea, I myself have got to try it! Check it out, especially if you’re looking to boost traffic to non-webmaster related websites. Hint: What “social people” are talking about these days would most likely be the best niche. Top bands, celebrity talks, and all that. You get the picture.
As for some exciting news… tomorrow, I’m going to post something that would make you realize how much money you’ve “wasted” on ads. 
Also, I had just completed the first phase of my proxy journey. Some interesting posts about that as well, hopefully… Well, the bottom line is, you should be expecting a lot of posts regarding internet marketing next week, so stay subscribed!
It’s a Saturday again; apologies because I didn’t post some links for you last week. As you all know, I was busy (still busy), so that’s my excuse. Lame excuse? Sorry about that! To compensate for that, I decided to give you almost twice the amount of links I usually post! Good enough, I guess. Ready? Okay, here we go.
Danny from Linkers Blog shares a very big list of dofollow forums with PageRank. While I myself do not really care about Google PR, I reckon that a lot of people do. So, I decided to share this with all of you. Plus, these forums are active so maybe you can also pursue your marketing efforts in here.
Ankesh from NonToxin published a great post on sacrificing in order to reap great rewards. I have mentioned this before, but allow me to reiterate it. I find awesomeness in Ankesh’s posts because of his very unique approach. I urge you to subscribe to his blog; you will NOT regret it.
Sire of WassupBlog tells us how to deal with rude commentators. I have been getting more and more comments these days, and I must admit that some are just so rude. Well, Sire’s tips were indeed helpful. Check them out!
Ryan from Smarter Wealth posted something interesting this week, he tells us what to do when our businesses are not growing, failing, or anything related to those words. His post is inspirational in a sense, so be sure to read it — especially if you are running a business and you feel like it’s not doing very well.
Joe of IM with Joe gives a tip on how to increase business knowledge for free by using other available resources. Some of us really like spending and all that, but then there are always other things that you can leverage in order to be a better entrepreneur. I remember myself saying that free doesn’t always mean poor, and this holds true in this issue.
Static from ahnternet wrote a great guide (if I may call it that) on how to find a niche to start affiliate marketing. Sometimes, we just sign-up for all affiliate offers not thinking that having a smaller scope can increase our profits. This is where Static’s post comes in — he makes us realize what niche we should conquer! Oh, and before I forget, this guy seriously has a talent in writing about things in the MMO niche, so I suggest that you subscribe to his blogs.
I’ll be back later with a post about maintaining (and ruining) your reputation as an internet marketer. Don’t go anywhere else!
It’s a Saturday again, and it’s September already! I can’t believe time flies so fast. Let me talk about some things about Net Strife first. If you haven’t read my post yesterday, click here. It’s all about knowing if you’ve got great marketing skills. Also, my contest is ending in two weeks. If you haven’t joined yet, you better do so now.
Enough talk about my posts. Here are the articles I found interesting and helpful this week.
Ben from BenjaminPatton.com shares twenty of the best WordPress plug-ins. I reckon this will be a good read especially for those who are just starting out with their blogs.
Gyutae from Winning the Web tells us how Google Chrome will win 51% of the market share by 2010. He actually has some interesting points, especially on how he thinks Google will market the said browser. This post is worth the read, really.
Mattaw from MoneyBites gives us an advice — don’t spread yourself too thin. If you’re an entrepreneur and you get all hyped up to start new projects everyday, then think again! You might think that you can handle it, but once you start with all your projects at the same time you WILL be stressed and end up not having even one project reach the success mark.
Enkay from Enkay Blog shares tips on picking offers for affiliate marketing. Sometimes, we just look at the amount of money that each program can give us. However, there are many other things that we should consider! Check this post out, it would be helpful if you’re an aspiring affiliate marketer.
Desmond from DesmondBlog.com tells us a story of a 20-year old site flipping newbie who made a decent amount on his first flip. Interested? Well, read Desmond’s post. It’s sort of a weird story, but you can really learn a lot from it.
That is all. Enjoy your weekend everyone.
Ah, time flies so fast - it’s Saturday once again! While you’re reading this, I’m probably away from my computer. I have this interesting event going on at school so I will most likely not be here to approve your comments (for the new visitors to this blog). Anyway, here are some great posts I have read this week.
Yan from Blog for Beginners (Thou Shall Blog) shares 15 SEO tips for beginners. It was a really insightful post full of details that are easy for newbies to understand. No SEO jargon, just content that will make your blog rank higher in search engines. Check it out, it’s really worth reading!
Jim from The Net Fool never fails to amuse me with his post quality. The post I liked most this week talks about increasing our RSS subscriber base through flattery. Tell others that you like their blogs and you support them. Most likely, they will be your subscribers!
Bruno Auger tells us what we should do and not do when it comes to customer support. Let’s face it, we internet marketers (especially if we run service-based sites) need to give our customers the best support they will ever need in order to prevent them from leaving us!
Mattaw made a post on MoneyBites which gives us tips on how to network in person effectively. I’m sharing this with you because meeting a lot of new people can prove to be a great asset in your internet marketing endeavors in the long run. Who knows, the person you met today might be your next partner in an online business venture!
That’s it for today, I’ve got to run now. Almost late for the school event! *rushes down the stairs and goes straight to the front door*
It’s a Saturday again. I almost forgot about Link Bits, luckily my dashboard showed that I have one draft. I’ve gathered quite a good number of posts today, I hope you get to read them all as they’re very good posts.
At CourtneyTuttle.com, Monika Mundell posted about how important communication is in a client-provider relationship. This is related to my post about avoiding fights between your clients. Monika tells us to act on our promises, double check everything, ask/give feedback, and a couple more things to do to have an effective communication with your client or service provider.
Yan from Blog for Beginners shares 20 ways to optimize our blogs. All twenty ways are effective; they’ve been tried and tested by many other bloggers already.
Inspired Money Maker talks about how powerful repetition is. When we hear the words “You can’t do it.” too many times, then we will get affected and eventually we’ll be brought down by those words. Actually the post is more than just that — you have to read it to fully understand how powerful repetition is.
Mattaw of MoneyBites gives tips on preparing to quit your dayjob. If you want to stop working offline and be a full-time online moneymaker, then you better read this post. It’s short but you’re sure to learn a lot from it.
Jay from DatMoney.com advices everyone to offer incentives to keep our e-mail/newsletter subscribers. In my opinion, incentives are a great way to have a loyal following. Well, they’re mostly the ones who make us internet marketers some money anyway, so why not offer them something nice?
Rob from IronBlogger tells us how to become a successful blogger. His post is dedicated to new bloggers, but I guess the experienced ones can gain something from it as well.
Happy reading! Enjoy your weekend everyone.
