I do a lot of surfing. Some for entertainment, some for blogging research. I have been using StumbleUpon as my social bookmarking tool this year and I wanted to share with you all of my favorite links from the past year broken into categories. If you have a Twitter account, I’d be happy to follow [...]

StumbleUpon is one of my top traffic generators. Besides the visitors that come directly to your domain, most traffic is generated by search engine results or some other type of search. Social media sites and online bookmarking sites are another way to explode your traffic. I started paying attention to my StumbleUpon traffic after writing [...]

Since I recently had to do a lot of work (I’m almost done) moving my domains and sites to a new server, I did some additional research on the art of buying and selling domains. So I have included a list of links to those sites on top of my regular StumbleUpon favorites. Community Websites [...]

20,000 visitors in a couple days can’t be wrong. My last post was titled Why geeks make better boyfriends. I was searching the interwebs for some information on a future post and came across an old post on the ‘best of Craigslist’ that laid out 15 reasons why Geeks make better boyfriends. Instead of just [...]

I don’t write enough. Though I manage a few different sites and periodically post to them, I rarely use this site as a springboard for my thoughts. Instead I take my time and write something substantial to post and work on the code. (I know it still needs some work.) So I figured I would [...]

StumbleUpon has become a staple in my online life for the past couple months. I like StumbleUpon more than other sites like Digg. The main reason is that the process is extremely passive and requires little effort by me to find interestingly random websites. I think I have written just about all that I can [...]

I recently wrote about Twitter saying “Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that allows users to send “updates” (or “tweets”; text-based posts, up to 140 characters long) to the Twitter website, via short message service [SMS], instant messaging, or a third-party application such as Twitterrific.” I thought I would put together a [...]

So you’ve built a nice website, with good information, fresh and frequently updated content, maybe you’ve registered yourself with great affiliate marketing programs, and you even have many prospects and leads. But you’re not breaking even yet. You might not have made a single sell yet. The fact is that the vast majority of people [...]

1. SPECIFIC Goals have to be specific if they are to be effective. Your goal has to be described with as much detail as possible. You have to be specific or your goal may be accomplished! What I mean by this is that you may be in danger of accomplishing a vague goal. For example, [...]
