Blog your way to profit
June 3, 2008
I have several blogs and for a while I have wondered whether to link to them from each other, or re-use content from one on some of the others.
Blogging is a great way to make a profit, but keeping up with the amount of content creation you need can be difficult. That’s why the idea of re-using your own content, or somebody else’s sometimes, with permission, is so appealing.
However, there’s often talk about a ‘duplicate content penalty’ that Google supposedly slap on you if they find that you’re not producing totally 100% unique content.
Pretty much pure myth, but most people believe it. In fact most people believe it without having any idea why. They haven’t done any research into it. They hear ‘facts’ proclaimed in emails and forums and there’s usually no evidence to back up the point of view - just loud argument.

Why Another Blog?
May 23, 2008
Ok, fair question.
There are billions of blogs now. Everyone and his dog has a blog. But there’s always room for another one and particularly if you learn from what you’ve done before.
Blogs are just ways of delivering content and they’re very good at doing that. And as most people in the IM community know, content and lots of it is what’s needed these days if you seriously want to achieve anything.
So with that said I’ve opened up the doors to my new blog, in my own name. Over the coming years I’ll share what I know, what I think I know, what I’ve done wrong and what I’ve done right.
I hope you join me for the journey!
