Plenty of people out there will tell you how to make money with a blog. Darren Rowse is apparently one of the best. John Chow is another guy making big money off blogging. A quick Google search reveals 47 pages of web pages (20 at a time) that want to tell you how to “make money blogging.” I’m not sure how many people have time to read each and every one of those 928 Google entries to learn how to make money with a blog, but I have a good idea how they read, and I’m sure that many of them will sell you a program to show you how to make money blogging for just $500 $400 $300 $197 $37.
In no particular order, this is your standard list of ways to make money blogging.
Keyword Content
You need to have good content, with your embedded keywords jammed into each post as many times a possible, but without seeming obvious. If you want to help people make money blogging, you should tell people that you can help them make money blogging. It’s like a thesis. You tell them that you have tips to help make money blogging, you tell them the tips to make money blogging, and then you tell the reader that you have given them tips to make money blogging.
The content of your blog should be focused on Read the rest of this entry »

For some time, I’ve been reading and using the Alexa redirect machine. Basically, if you use http://redirect.alexa.com/redirect?blowitoutyourpiehole.com to link to this site, it will count to Alexa as a hit to add to your Alexa ranking. It’s a neat way of getting an Alexa hit if you don’t have any Alexa widgets on your site or get visited by a spider or someone who doesn’t have javascript turned on. Whether the ranking is accurate or not is not a matter for discussion here.
I just posted a link over at the new Blondeee Blog and used the Alexa redirect, and it’s now a big fat 404 error. Now if the Alexa redirect machine is just having a temporary down time, it shouldn’t affect much, assuming that the Google and Yahoo! engines don’t start wiping their databases of the pages.
If Alexa has turned this off permanently, it will seriously drop page rankings and incoming links across the globe. If anyone used this for their adsense target, bad things worldwide will happen.
I don’t see anything out in the blogosphere about this, so maybe it’s just a temporary outage or it’s just a load balancing server issue. Maybe, just maybe, blowitoutyourpiehole.com has a jump ahead on the rest.

A few days ago, I wrote about my future domain host. I’m always looking for cheap domain name registrations, and since they had an introductory special, I used Yahoo! as my domain registrar for blowitoutyourpiehole.com in its first year. Most of my domain names are registered through Go Daddy. You can register a .com name from them for about $10, and a domain name is a domain name. As long as you get complete control over your domain registration, and your domain name servers, a domain name is a domain name. Seriously, I can’t figure out why people pay $35 a year for a domain name when you can get the identical product for a third the price.
A while ago, there was a story or two about Go Daddy’s allegedly holding some popular site domain names hostage, but I wasn’t able to find anything recently that sounds accurate.
But it’s not like Nordstrom’s where you’re paying for the name ‘Nordstrom.’ You are purchasing the exact same product, especially if it is a ‘throw away domain.’ Anyway, with your domain registration, if you really need some name servers, take a look at EveryDNS.net. At your domain registrar, whether it be Yahoo!, Go Daddy, Network Solutions, or anyone, they will allow you to set your DNS servers to everydns, and configure your everydns domain name records to point where they need be.
So now you can load up on domain names from your domain name registrar, and host them in one place for maximum enjoyment.
