I was anxious to meet Andrew Wee for the first time in person at the last Affiliate Summit in Vegas, as he is a brilliant man.  If there weren’t a 13 hour time difference between us (he’s in Singapore), I think I’d be bugging him even more via AIM, as he inspires and motivates me every time I chat with him.  I felt honored when he asked to interview me for his Friday podcast show.  So honored in fact that I gave up my Skype virginity to him.  My interview aired last week.  (Um, can you count how many times I said “um”?).  I suggest you check out all of Andrew’s podcasts, as he has interviewed many intelligent internet marketers. And I’m flattered he considered me part of that list!  Thanks for everything, Andrew!

I was reading John Reese’s Income.com blog where he announced TrafficJam.com.  It’s similiar (yet different) to Bloglines. He claims it’s a great source to find blogs in your niche to share those posts with your own readers and discover new blogs in your niche that you didn’t know about.

Another idea I had - search for other blogs on TrafficJam in your similiar niche, and leave comments with a link back to your site.  If it’s “dofollow“, all the better for SE rankings, but you are still apt to get some free traffic if “nofollow”, especially if you are clever with your name/title/url/comment/blahblahblah.

Now that I bookmarked TrafficJam, I figured I want my blogs included in their results!  Well, you have to be a part of the BlogRush Network (free) to be added.  You basically add a snipet of code on your site, and for every impression you give them, they’ll load your last blog post title on another member’s similar site. I’ve tested BlogRush on one of my sites for a few months now, and have been happy with the results/stats so far. 

And now that TrafficJam will essentially bring me even more traffic, I’m adding more sites to BlogRush.com and recommend the same to other bloggers. They manually approve to keep out the bad bloggers.  You should be able to see my BlogRush widget in action in the sidebar of this very blog.

Next up, I think I’ll get rid of the Etology Ads in the sidebar, as I’m not caring for the ads being shown.  I’m thinking of adding Jim Kukral’s ScratchBack widget.  Anyone have good luck with it?  ScratchBack appears profitable for Lynn Terry of Clicknewz. Hmmm, maybe I should buy a link on her site…

Two years ago, I bought Joel Comm’s The AdSense Code, a New York Times Bestseller, and implemented several of his ideas to increase my Adsense Revenue. Joel has also written an eBook entitled Google AdSense Secrets that has been selling like hotcakes, and people have been paying $97 for his words of wisdom.  Well, Joel just completely revised and the expanded the ebook this year and is now only charging $9.95! Joel is a generous guy and wants everyone to be able to afford their own copy. Plus he’s throwing in some great bonuses, so buy your copy now before he raises the price!
