Realising now, that Wordpress is the best way to go with Blogging. Screw Atmosphere!

Filed under: business — admin May 21, 2008 @ 9:35 pm

Well folks, after two years of being rediculously hawkish on using my Atmosphere platform for writing blogs and the like, I have come to grips with the reality, that it was not going to help me with internet marketing. I have realised that now, wordpress has everything and then some, to make a dreary blog, turn into something quite extravagant. That is why now, I use wordpress for everything in the blogosphere. I would only make sense at this point. 

Rules for a successful blog:

1. Use wordpress. Not exceptions there. Do be a cocky loser like me and use your own dynamically programmed conjurations, because wordpress is heavily modified to be SEO friendly and get more traffice. Wordpress also pings all of the major blog search engines after you publish a post. I happened to snap up some nice google serp ratings in less than a week’s time! And isn’t google usually a bitch to get anything good from? USE WORDPRESS!

2. Use onlywire.com for social bookmarking. These guys are the once-and-done solution for getting the word out on blogging. As of right now, they use only 24 different social bookmark sites, and unfortunately digg is not one of them. I still manually bookmark to digg. 

3. Get socialist! Nope, I haven’t backed from my conservative (Not Republican!) ways, but this awesome plugin for wordpress will give you a social bookmark bar on the bottom of each wordpress post. This is so your site visitors can digg, stumble upon, furl, spurl, or delicious your posts! 

4. Especially if you are niche writing, you should really take into strong consideration, having instead of one blog to put all of your blogging eggs into, build a small network of blogs. Heck, if you are using blogs for promoting items, on clickbank, cj, click2sell. etc. This is something of strong importance here. Get a domain for 9 dollars a year, and this should be easily recooperable if you do this right.

5. Get a VPS system for hosting. This is a great way to host your content and be able to manage multiple domains and wordpress systems using a VPS.

6. Write 2-3 articles per blog a day. In my forex blog at www.goforextrade.com, I write not only about products that I review, but I also write about the meanderings of the currency market, and how and why things are happening the way they are. Having more blogs besides a selling piece on products that you review, will help increase trust from your visitors, and build your reputation as an expert in the field niche.

7. Schedule yourself. Yes, working at home has it advantages, but definitely schedule yourself to perform certain tasks throughout the day. Like for example, before or after breakfast, read your email, reply to email. After lunch post a couple of blogs, do some product testing for a product review, etc.

Having these 7 tips will greatly help you become a tour de force in your niche, and help your blog become a superstar!

Have an awesome day!

Make a left turn and about a half mile down on your right, there is that big old sign “TWHowell’s.” Stop there and have an awesome meals, by yourself, with friends, with family, or anybody you’d like to!!Now if you come down here by White Horse Pike, we are about a few miles past route 50, and a half a mile before Pomona Road, on your left!And If you happen to be fancy with those newfangled GPS systems, the address is:341 W White Horse PikePomona, NJ 08240The Phone Number is 609-965-6890 Go There and Enjoy some food created by my Dad!

If I haven’t struck gold with the following things going on in life, I don’t know what the fuck would.  I will have to advise the following: While keeping on the down low with my recent business activities, I am glad to report that everything is fine and dandy. I am still alive and everything is running as smooth as ever. Very shortly, I will be more at liberty to discuss more about the strategic business alliances that are being made. State of TWHowell. Strong as ever folks. We are looking into further monetization strategies, where we have a less of a client load, and more of a series of turnkey profit solutions. We are looking the whole gamut, from e-commerce, to product review sites. Vanbrunt Group LLC is currently operating review sites such as thisawesomething.com, and the new version of iliveinsuccess.com. Why did I go with a wordpress blog system and nix the NeinFive system that I built? Well, I thought it was time for a change, from experimenting on mySQL/php systems, to learning how to modify and develop with existing turnkey solutions. Getting to know a newer system not only increases my programming muscle, but also gets me to a point of where I can integrate aspects of different softwares with each other and create a community. Notice on the front page, now I have a most recent blog, and recipe, but very soon will integrate the forums and link directories as well! I thought this newer version would cater to just about anybody, and the design would be awesome and easier to navigate too! Folks, sit tight, as the ride of life just got crazier! And you are here to read it first hand! Welcome to my world. Thomas Howell dot O R G
