Every business has it’s own unique set of tools to perform various tasks each day required to keep it moving forward. One of the most important tools of an Internet Marketer is some kind of email marketing software such as Aweber. This software tool is also know as an Autoresponder.

A most important feature of this software is click tracking. This feature keeps track of how many times a link is clicked and who clicks it.

We’ll start off by wishing everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It’s hard to believe but yes, it’s 2010 and I wonder how many of you have made New Years resolutions. I used to make new resolutions every year but that’s when I was much younger. Now I figure I’ve reached a point in my life where I’m entitled to have a few vices so no more resolutions for me. Besides let’s face it, most of us have blown it by the end of January.

There’s this misconception amongst bloggers that every time they leave a comment on your blog that they are getting a free one way backlink.

Surprise! Not if you’re using Wordpress.

By default Wordpress puts the NoFollow attribute in your blog comments so when the web spiders come along they ignore the link, as far as Page Rank goes anyway. Thus you don’t pass along any link love to your visitors by giving out a free one way backlink.

If you want to give some link juice to your commenters you have to remove the nofollow attribute that Wordpress takes upon themselves to place in the source code.

You know what, I just want to go on a little rant today.

Maybe I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning or maybe it had something to do with the fact that it’s only 35 F outside and Old Man Winter is knocking on our door.

I was just on Twitter going through my Direct Messages
trying to answer some of them and I found one of interest
and it led me to their blog.

Upon arriving at their blog I gave it the quick eyeball
glance and it looked very nice. You know the ones I mean,
easy on the eyes.

Do you sometimes start feeling sorry for yourself because you’ve been trying to make money online for so long and just can’t seem to get anywhere.

Maybe you’re having trouble getting motivated and don’t know where to turn to get help.

Well, I’ve found the help you need. His name is Nick Vujicic.

Nick has a saying that we all should stick in the back of our heads and when ever we feel a little down and out we should mutter the words…

Well here I am almost a month later after I told you I was doing a major overhaul of my blog and if memory serves me correctly I said I would be done in a couple of days. So much for meeting my deadline. I just ran into many unexpected problems along the way and the final straw was when I couldn’t get online for three days. Three days may not seem like much but in Internet time it’s like an eternity. And if I’m going to be perfectly honest with you I must admit that I just got lazy for awhile and took some time off to boot.

I just came from my friend Gary Simpson’s blog and he had pictures of his daughter’s wedding on it and it got me to thinking about my wedding long ago and how times have sure changed. This started out as a comment on his blog but the more I typed I said I should post this on my blog. So here we are.

Weddings are out of control these days. I don’t know how people can afford it.

You want to hear one of those “when I was a kid” stories. NO! Too Bad, I’m going to tell you anyway.
