How to kill your blog’s brand by over promoting

How to kill your blog's brand by over promoting

One of the most frustrating things I'm seeing is new (and unfortunately experienced) bloggers deluding their brand name by over promoting their own content.  This has been an issue for a while.  Starting with blog comments, and now made even worse through use of social media. I published an article recently pleading for moderators of Google+ Communities to crack down on bloggers self promoting by pasting links to their latest articles and blogs within the communities.  Due to that article and Continue Reading

The power of now

The power of NOW and your blog - Stop thinking, stop hesitating, stop the excuses and start blogging.

The Future is Now.   This was the phrase on a small sign my Dad made for me when I was in college.  That simple phrase became one of my driving mantras in life, starting with college, but also in my marriage, my professional career and in my blogs.  The phrase is a constant reminder to me that the choices I make right now determine my future.  The phrase serves as a reminder to not put anything off, but instead do them right now. The future often seems so far off, when in reality the future Continue Reading

Google Communities – The Good and the Ugly

In early December I received an email from Google announcing that Google Communities was live and inviting me to check it out.  To be honest, I hadn't been on Google+ much since it originally went live.  When I was on, it was only to share links to recent articles I had written.  I wasn't engaged or active at all. The concept of Google Communities intrigued me though and given my new recent focus on upping my "social media game", I decided to check it out. Google Communities Google Continue Reading

2012 Year in Review

2012 Year in Review

Has it really been a year?  I hesitated writing this article because almost every blogger puts together a "year in review" post.  After some severe waffling, I decided to write one.  Why?   Given my niche is teaching others how to blog and how to earn an income online, I thought it would be beneficial for you to see the progress and growth here on Side Income Blogging this past year.  Interested in how much traffic growth I had?  Interested in how much money I earned blogging?  Read on... 2012 Continue Reading

The Biggest Risk To Your Online Success

The biggest risk to your online success

How many bloggers or website owners do you know (or, perhaps yourself) that start a new blog or website, successfully drive traffic through SEO or Social Media, get approved for Adsense, then slap on some Adsense code and call it a day? Adsense is fast, it's easy, and it's virtually automatic. Paste the Adsense code into your blog or website, set it, and forget it! Sure, you might generate $5, $10, or even $100 or more per day using Google Adsense but I am here to tell you that limiting Continue Reading

How to set-up one inbox using Gmail

Media Temple Redirect Setting

I was chatting with some fellow bloggers in the Blog Tips Google+ community (Ryan Hanley and Sarah Arrow) about how we spot spammy guest post requests. I had commented that a possible spam sign for me were guest post requests coming from a Gmail, Yahoo or MSN account and not from a real domain.  Ryan responded that he uses his Gmail account the most and had never had a problem but probably due to him working to establish a relationships before requesting a guest post.  I completely agreed with Continue Reading

Twelve things new bloggers absolutely need to know

I started blogging in 2007 on a personal finance blog that I thought nobody would ever read.  Three years later, and much to my surprise, that little blog became a top 10 personal finance blog with more than 3000 readers.  I've since sold that one and started a number of other blogs and even a blog consulting/development business.  Through this, I've learned a tremendous amount about blogging.  I know from experience what it takes for a blog to be successful and what things can make a blog Continue Reading

Make you and your blog more Pinteresting

Make you and your blog more interesting. #blogging sideincomeblogging.com

If you haven't heard of Pinterest by now, I'd highly recommend you head over and check it out. Pinterest is incredibly popular and changing the way people view and interact with websites. Given it's incredible popularity, Pinterest can also drive huge amounts of traffic to your website or blog. I began experimenting with Pinterest almost a year ago, with only a small amount of success (4 visits in the entire first six months). I stayed with it though. I continued to read, learn, participate, Continue Reading
