Basics For Bloggers

Steve Pavlina's How to Make Money From Your Blog covers some of the basics of blogging. He also does a nice job of discussing the myth of horrible reactions to advertsing and donation requests by readers. This would also apply to affiliate ads.

Don't tune out on the first bit on Google's Adsense in Superaff's "Focus" article just because adult webmasters cannot use it; there's sound advice here. And even more when it gets to the discussion of the 'cart before the horse' mentality.

If there's one thing I can say in summation regarding these two articles ~ besides "Go read them!" ~ it's that both these pieces take on the premise that you, the blogger, are going to remain focused on and committed to your blog. Which is not always done. (More on that in the first newsletter to be sent next week ~ so, have you subscribed yet?)
