  • Will Amazon Affiliate Twitter posting tool increase spam? – Amazon has introduced a new feature for its Affiliate members, making it easy to post a link to any product on the site to Twitter.

    It’s another step in making it easy to promote Amazon’s products, after the introduction of cut-and-paste widgets and “link to this page” for bloggers and website owners.

    Yet Twitter is already flooded with spam and promotional messages, and Amazon has just made it a whole lot easier for casual spammers to flood the service with affiliate links.

  • Would You Consider a Dedicated Twitter Device? – Since I’ve started appreciating Twitter for both personal discussions and promoting my blogs and online content, I’ve been exploring ways to access the service conveniently, even while on-the-go. For this purpose, I’ve settled with a Symbian Series 60 application called Gravity. The application is a fully-featured Twitter client that supports practically anything that a desktop-based [...]
  • Who is Posterous good for? – Posterous has caused quite a stir in the blogging world, because it all but removes even the moderate level of complexity that other blogging platforms tend to put in the way of simply publishing.
    The service has even managed, somehow, to alter my view a little on using free, non-self-hosted blogging platforms, though I’d still say [...]
  • How to Be Wildly Successful in Blogging – There are many things that go into being successful in the problogging arena. Things like putting in the time and effort, determination, hard work, writing chops, and marketing savvy have been brought up by many people. But I think the most important thing doesn’t get talked about a lot. For the most successful bloggers, their [...]
  • Facebook is not killing blogging… – After yesterday’s post on social media being key to blog marketing, there’s a certain irony in reading an article which suggest that Facebook is killing blogging.
    Of course, this is just one opinion amidst many, and the “x is killing y” argument is eternal, but it’s an interesting point of view.
    What seems to be happening is [...]
  • Blog marketing: Do social networks outrank search engines? – An interesting article over at Promotion World declares why search engine traffic is not vital to blogs, outlining the strategies bloggers should already be using to drive traffic and, eventually, loyal readers to their blog.
    At first I jumped to a conclusion, thinking that the author (TJ Philpott) was saying that search engine ranking and traffic [...]
  • How to Maintain Focus When Writing – As a blogger and writer, I must admit that there are days when I’m just on a roll. I’m able to achieve significant output. I’m able to manage my time wisely, and I’m generally productive. But then there are also those days when I uselessly stare at the computer screen for hours on end, never [...]
  • Explaning Niche and Community using the Reverse Maslow – I sat in a series of sessions of a co-professor who projected stuff from the Authenticity Book for his marketing class. Part of it had to do with understanding new media, the Internet — that sort of stuff, really. So I borrowed it. And it’s been a “formula” I use to introduce or summarize “new [...]
  • 5 Ways to Turbo Charge Your Blog Monetization – By now you probably know that simply plastering ads all over your pages and prominent donation links don’t really work.
