admin — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 15:28:18 +0000

Any person reading this blog right now that is in the design field has probably wondered this very exact question: What do these design blogs actually make in ad revenue and is it possible for me to make money with my own design blog? Hopefully, by the end of this article you will walk away with answers to that question.

I’ve been pushing around the idea of starting my own design blog for months now and decided to do a bit of research to see what the top design blogs actually make in revenue. Since I know that the blog will be focused on ad revenue and not just pushing my web design business, I wanted to gauge what types of money could be made with the blog and how much traffic I’d have to hit in order to get to certain cash milestones.

Like most bloggers do, this morning I checked my Feedburner stats and see that my blog Cats Who Code had 6000+ RSS subscribers. I decided to check out how many readers I had one year later. I wasn’t surprised to read that I only had 900 readers at the time.

So, how did I manage to get 4000 new readers in 2009, while I only managed to get almost 1000 the previous year? This is what I’m going to explain in this article.

Starting a Podcast is Easier Than You Think | Anthony Licari

As ego maniacal beings the internet and subsequently blogging wasn’t good enough for us. Not only do we want everyone to read our senseless drivel but we want them to listen to us to and thus the podcast was invented. The podcast, in my opinion, shouldn’t be your sole content driver for your site given that your random visitor who doesn’t know you probably could care less and is going to move on. For your return visitor, the one who finds you interesting, having a podcast could be the perfect augmentation for building loyalty.

Blogging: Secure Your Spot as the “Go-To” Blog | Tutorial9

admin — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 20:58:27 +0000

With the popularity of blogging showing little waning, I decided that I would offer a bit of a tutorial on how to blog. Effectively, that is. Anyone can sit down in front of a keyboard and punch out a post of little to no import or community relevence, but it takes a bit more than that to blog effectively. There are millions of people blogging all across the vast sea of cyberspace, and many of them are doing it the right way to maintain their visibility among the masses. In fact, I posted about this very topic here at Tutorial 9 recently in, Key Elements to Blog Visibility. One of the main focuses of that post was on content. Because, above all, it is the content of your site that is going to bring the readers back time and again.
