Welcome back! Have you joined my mailing list yet?

I’ve been doing a little bit of work on this site as time has been permitting me. Alas, I’m not really sure how much more I can do.

Oh wait, there’s a ton of things that I can do to make this blog better! But until those good ideas come around, here’s a couple of the things that I have been doing around here.

First, I’ve added a new plugin to the site in order to help with organic traffic, namely Headspace2. What it does is give you the ability to fill out the meta title and description of each blog post. Just think, this is a chance to get in those all-important keywords that search engines just love.

Second, I’ve signed up and installed Kontera, which is a content-based CPC advertising network. Basically it chooses keywords in your blog posts and automatically makes them links (denoted by the double underlines). So far, it seems to be working, although I really would love to see some real traffic show up to see just how well using Kontera works.

I’ve also added a neat little feature (which you can see at the top of this post if you are on the post’s page rather than the index.php) which allows you to retweet my posts with a single click. Just a little bit of php code and voila, instant Twitter retweet gratification! OK, maybe not so much, but it’s a very neat (and easy to use) tool for giving your readers a chance to pass your post along to their followers. Speaking of Twitter followers, my earlier blog post about how I gained 100 Twitter followers in two hours did sort of jump the gun…I’m now over 1600, and the number is steadily increasing. In fact, my followers are also growing thanks to my use of the #tcot (top conservatives on Twitter) hashtag for my other blog, Verbal Thermite. Another area where having tons of Twitter followers is showing a great benefit is in the use of Be-A-Magpie, which is a service that helps you monetize your Twitter account. I’m now making over three Euros with each Magpie tweet. I wonder what John Chow could make with his account…hmm…

Finally, and also the most important update to this site for now is the fact that I’ve done some work with my mailing list. Now you can get a free PLR (private label rights) article pack when you join our list! If you are wondering how this can benefit you, you should check out my Squidoo lens on how to make money with PLR and MRR products. Read that, and then join the mailing list, and together we can take over the internet…er…I mean, make money online.
