Are Traffic Widgets Really Worth It?

No one likes to blog for empty space, and readers (and comment leavers) can make the difference between you quitting after a couple weeks and you going on to become a blogging mogul. I’d say the readers have the largest impact on a blog apart from the owner – their prods and advice can refine your blogging technique and help develop your blog into a better place to visit.

If you’re going to have a successful blog, you need to get smart with setting goals. Success does not just happen; you have to plan for it. I’ve found it to be a process of trial and error.

How To Advertise Your Ebook
This Guest Post was submitted by Tracey Sands from Piggy Bank Pie Writing Services. Update from Collin: I am not a huge fan of ebooks but I do know that a lot of people still make a good amount of money from them so I approved this post.You’ve finished your first ebook. It’s a PDF, it has a cover and it’s been proofed. It’s sitting on your website waiting for someone to buy it… but no one has, what gives?
