Should I quit my blog NOW?????

There’s been another round of ‘blogging is dead’ posts doing the rounds of late and as a result I’ve had a number of emails hitting my inbox over the last week from bloggers asking if they should stop blogging.

Here’s some of the advice I’ve been sharing:

* Blogging is not dead - it’s evolving.
* You should be evolving too (read Blogs are Out of Beta, But Bloggers Should always be in Beta)
* Keep being useful, keep solving problems and keep meeting needs - whatever the medium this is key.
* Keep producing content - people continue to search the web for content in huge numbers. It’s not all about networking and bookmarking - whether it be text, video or audio - keep producing content.
* Experiment with different mediums - to the best of your ability keep abreast of the ‘new’ mediums that are emerging.
* Build a ‘Home Base’ - many people flit from one medium to another and end up with nothing of their own (read more on the Home Bases and Outposts that I use).
* Build a Brand - the mediums are tools. They’ll come and go in time - the key is to build something that lasts beyond them.
* Don’t be Precious about your ‘Blog’ and be open to change - there’s no one ‘right’ way to blog. Blogs can have comments or not have comments, have full RSS feeds or partial ones, look like a traditional blog or act and look more like a lifestream or portal. The key is to know what you want to achieve and let that shape what you do with your blog.
* Don’t abandon your blog too quickly - your primary efforts may move into a different medium but blogs can be an important part of the mix of what you do online. Don’t abandon your blog - build upon it, let it evolve, leverage what you’ve already built and use it where appropriate in the mix of what you do.

What do you think? How are you approaching what you do in this ever changing web?
lets continue your blog.....be a good blogger now....

2.WidgetBucks

Is Widgetbucks worth it, and how does it fare against AdSense? Find these answers in this review!. widget bucks is PPC (price per click) program. I see people flaming widget bucks in forums as a scam. This is not uncommon for new programs out there. After all widget bucks just Started in early October. the first payments for widget bucks will be sent out mid December. After those first checks are cut this will clam many of the people out there saying it is a scam. I really can’t uderstand why someone would even say they aren’t a legit company. After all they are the makers of Mpire. It’s not like this company just came to be they have been in the market for several years. Not only that would they really go throug hall the trouble of tracking my earnings and impresions every day. Since the launch of the new widget bucks program thye have done extensive code modifications and updates. This does not sound like a fly by night company but more like a company that wants to build a solid base.

3.Text Link Ads

Text Link Ads (TLA) are the text links that you can find on my sidebar under ‘Sponsored Links’, that link to the Advertiser’s site.Advertisers will find Text Link Ads useful as these are static links without a nofollow and will therefore help them improve their search engine rankings and get them some traffic.Text Link Ads makes it easy for Advertisers to choose which sites to advertise on by displaying all their publishers by category and ordering them by Alexa ranking and monthly price. Once you select the sites you want to advertise on, just tick the ‘Buy’ checkbox and click ‘Add to cart’.As a new Advertiser on Text Link Ads you are eligible for $100 in FREE Links.Publishers will find Text Link Ads useful as unlike other Ads they are just text links and won’t be irritating for their visitors. As a publisher you can choose how many ads you would like to display, and whether they will appear on a single page or sitewide. Be careful on what you choose because this will affect on how much each link on your site will cost. The more Ads you choose to appear, the lesser will be the price per link.You can choose where to place the links on your site, but remember that certain places can get you more money. You can use the Text Link Ads calculator to see how much a link is worth on your site depending on where you put it and whether you chose to offer a single page or a site wide link. The left side of your page can earn you the most and the link worth decreases as you move to the right side.Also Text Link Ads are sold at a flat price for a 30 day period. The price won’t fluctuate with your traffic nor will it depend on how many people click or view the Text Links but is based on factors like Alexa Rank and Google PageRank. So your site will have a higher link price if you have good Alexa Rank and Google PageRank.

Just do it !

4.LinkWorth

Linkworth is a advertising network with multiple opportunities available for bloggers and webmasters to monetize their site. They have sponsored post, text link ad, and banner ad options available.

To recieve sponsored post or text link ad opportunities you must sign up for these options after you register an account. Then you wait for opportunities to come to you. They have 2 options on how much of the commission you want to get per transaction, 50/50 or a 70/30 split. The advantage with the 50/50 split is even though you only get half instead of 70% of the money, you should get a lot more opportunities. This is because Linkworth gives these accounts priority. Try the 70/30 and if you havent received opportunities for a couple weeks, I recommend switching it to the 50/50.

Linkworth also has an affiliate program for referring publishers. If someone you refer earns 100 dollars you get a 50 dollar bonus. Linkworth does payments by check, paypal, or direct deposit. They do require U.S citizens to fill out a tax form online before they are paid.

How To Monetize Our Blog (Part 1)

Blogging is big business these days, with some bloggers reporting six-figure or even million-dollar incomes. There are a number of ways that these bloggers earn such large paychecks, and the best know how to do it in a way that won't scare off readers.

This is many ways to monetize your blog :

Merchandising

1. CafePress.com: This perennial favorite makes it easy for you to put your blog's logo on shirts, bags, coasters and other items.
2. Self-Published Books: If your readers like your content, they may want to have something they can own offline or even share with friends. Create a book with self-publishing services like Lulu, and you'll earn profits even without a huge book deal.
3. Printfection.com: Design and sell custom products with Printfection.com.
4. Hard-Copy Content: Create a CD-ROM "book" with cleanly organized content that can be accessed offline. You can take things a step further and sell subscriptions for future updates to the system.
5. GoodStorm: Like CafePress.com and Printfection.com, GoodStorm is a nice way to create and sell your own merchandising products.

Paid Content

6. E-Books: Whether it's a compilation of your best tips or a new idea altogether, an e-book is a good, reader-friendly way to package content.
7. White Papers: Like e-books, white papers are a smaller, more technical version of your content.
8. Phone Calls: Sell one-on-one phone calls for advice and other consulting through Ether.
9. Miniguides: If you've just run a particularly helpful series, package it up into a miniguide.
10. Tutorials: Gather your knowledge and compile it into a tutorial that relies upon your expert advice.
11. Members-Only Sections: Whether you're providing access to published items or just ad-free content, make sure you're delivering a product that your readers are willing to pay for.
12. TextMarks Inc.: Charge readers to get text-message alerts about your content through TextMarks.
13. X-Events: Project physical events online and create revenue by charging admission, attracting sponsors and selling subscriptions to future events.
14. Podcasts: Podcasts may be a novelty to your readers, and many of them are probably willing to pay to be able to hear your entries on the go.
15. Videos: Like podcasts, videos are value-added extras that readers may be willing to pay for.

18. Mailed Checks: Of course, good old U.S. mail works just as well. Provide readers with a P.O. box that they can mail donations to.
19. Buy me a beer/coffee: Asking for donations in the form of a beer, coffee or other special item allows readers to reward you with something tangible.
20. Amazon Wish List: Although it's not cash, asking readers to buy you items from your Amazon Wish List will save you from having to buy things yourself. Again, they'll feel more rewarded knowing they've given you something tangible.
