Let 2010 be great – Happy New Years!
Coincidence–$30,000 is exactly the 2010 minimum-income goal I have set (to earn from all forms of freelance writing, not just blogging). I notice that none of your articles discuss the possibility of straight sales of articles for posting on others’ blogs. Considering that you emphasize actually making money, maybe that’s understandable. Why is it that corporations pay thousands of dollars to have text written for a Web page, periodicals pay two or three hundred dollars for an article, royalty book publishers give their writers large advances–but no one wants to pay more than a few dollars for a blog post? It’s not because blogs are shorter (the price is still comparative peanuts when calculated per word), and it’s definitely not because they require higher overhead.
It’s really great resource. Keep posting it. I am looking for more exciting resources in upcoming 2010. Keep posting.
Darren,
It is 1st time ever I wrote on somebody blog. I follow your regularly and find it very inspiring.
I have a question, my blog is 100% japanese and my audience is about 3/4 browsing my blog via their mobile phone, I am missing all the adsense sales and there is no way to sell a pdf for japanese mobile phone users.
Any ideas how to increase rentability (sales) in these conditions?
I love reading your post, it gave me some inpirations, thanks.
Happy New Year everyone!

Great advice and very true. One of the most important things bloggers, or any business, can do is try not to give up. Even when times are tough it�s important to be there for your readers and customers because they will remember you in a positive light once things get better and you will be rewarded for your efforts.

I would wish to compliment you for the attempts you have made in bringing out this article. I am awaiting the said best work from you again too.
One of the key elements of article marketing is to boost traffic to your website and produce high quality. Generating backlinks will give you better rankings on search engine result pages and consenquently more visibility. To accomplish this, you definitely need to use automation tools. Working on article marketing without some automated tools can get really overwhelming and time consuming.
Thanks for posting this, it’s just what I was googling. This is why I like blogs, you get a personal opinion from someone rather than a corporation trying to sell you on something, or an idea. I’ll be reading your blog more often!
Bloggings a great way to get your ideas out there, isn’t it?
An article marketing strategy it’s one of the easiest and most targeted strategies to get consumers , but if your strategy consists in merely submitting an article or two each week, your results will be probably very poor, that’s why you definitely should invest some money in automation softwares. Article submitter and spinner tools are the best ones you can use that are going to massively help you in your article marketing efforts.
