I’m partnering on a new blog with a close relative who is an eager, but very green, blogger.  He’s been kind of hit and miss on posting and hasn’t seemed overly committed, until this past week when he dropped a few posts of rather good content on the blog.  Recently, he sent me an email […]

A couple of months ago, my dad and I were looking at new and future Ford Mustangs on various sites.  We’re both Mustang nuts.  As a tech savvy guy, I was zipping through search results to drill down the specific info I was after.  When I was watching over his shoulder, I was cringing at […]

I ran into a problem this week when I was tweaking the design of a blog.  I’m not a designer; however, I tend to learn enough to get by so that I can tweak free themes to suit my purposes for my own projects.  If I weren’t such a control freak, I would just pay […]

I’ve updated a couple of my sites to Wordpress 2.5 now.  Based on my early impressions of it, I think I’m going to like it better than the previous versions.  This isn’t a review of Version 2.5 though.  I thought I would pass along a bit of information regarding some post editing and saving problems […]

It seems as if I’ve come full circle on the blogging for social media topic.  (Don’t know what social media is?  Check out this recent ProBlogger post on the topic.)  When I first began blogging, I jumped blindly into it.  I had no idea what social media was.  When I first learned about it, I […]

The goal?  Earn 6-figures in a year from online endeavors, primarily blogging.
The progress?  February 2008 yielded roughly $2400 revenue, with minimal expenses (and minimal sleep).  That’s just shy of a third of the monthly revenue stream that I want to have.
My most popular blog seems to have hit a plateau at around 7,000 to 8,000 […]
