Project Wonderful… a wonderful project for monetizing

January 18, 2008 – 7:07 pm

Part of returning from semi-retirement to help build BookWise also includes generating income from as many sources as possible. After all, a drip becomes a trickle, then a rivulet, a creek, a stream and finally a river… with many of the same processes beginning again.
Across my active blogs, I run a little Google AdSense, and [...]

I’ll help you stretch your Entrecard advertising efforts

January 17, 2008 – 3:15 pm

Starting immediately, you’ll get more than just a 24-hour ad spot when you advertise with me on ANY of my four blogs.
Here’s what you get.
When you place your first ad on one of my blogs, I’ll record the purchase price on a spreadsheet. Once your ad is completed, and I’ve been credited with my 25% [...]

January 15, 2008 – 4:55 pm

Yeah, looking back at my last four posts (three weeks time), it appears I’ve been obsessed with Entrecard. Well, yes… I have, but now I’m over it and ready to move forward.
No, I’m not leaving Entrecard, I’m simply working it “smarter”… and you should, too.

Not all traffic gets recorded in the same way

January 11, 2008 – 3:30 pm

I’ve been analyzing my stats. I use multiple ways to look at traffic, who’s visiting, how long are they there, where do they go, etc.
Now, this is a very time-consuming process, but I believe it’s the only way I can determine what’s working, what’s not, what’s in my control to change, etc.

Entrecard: I’ve got a plan that will work

January 7, 2008 – 2:17 pm

After just over two weeks, things are finally coming together for me. I’ve spent countless hours dropping cards, reading other blogs where folks are discussing various Entrecard systems, and analyzing ad results.
Here’s what I’ve come up with. It will work for me for a while until it becomes time to tweak. If it works for [...]
