They did it in 12month..

I know its (#project_100k_in_summer) possible now, seen it out there,
       ....just need to build the steps to get it all done.
             ....Read one example story here, they reached 100k in 12 months... nice!


Themes, Themes..

Quick SideStep again..

If you are building your own site, remember to check out MOJO-themes, excellent collection of themes.
Be sure to check their WordPress themes for blogs also!



Step Three

Step 3 show me the money Stats..

As early as possible you should setup statistics, there are few options out there..
...but google analytics is still the one with most feature rich set..

How to setup google analytics?

  • Create an account at www.google.com/analytics/
  • Browse to "Admin" and then "New Account"
  • You can group all your blogging site under one account, so maybe name this as "Blogs"
  • Then give a name, drop url, and select industry category + click "Get Tracking ID"
  • Almost done, copy the script, head back to Blogging template, add new 'html/script' widget
  • Drop the code, and Bob's your uncle, all done.. Easy...

#project_100k_in_summer

Getting background work done for the #project_100k_in_summer..

The plan is to try out if it's possible to earn 100k in a summer just by using blogging.
Will also document practical steps how to do it, or if it all fails, how not to do it.. :)

So lets share the love, RSS style..

A Quick SideStep.

People tent to have RSS feeds everywhere, so you should have your blog RRS feed available also..

And if you are not sure of the format, here's how it works for Blogger.com.

Format is:
http://YourBlogName.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss

For example:
http://testing1testing2.blogspot.dk/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss


Drop this to your favorite RSS reader, for example *I think best* Pulse, or any of these.. 

Go and test it, easy... 

Step Two

Done, Step 2 of the plan is completed, maybe...

Have installed some referrals to test out, not expecting anything at this stage, only to see how their service works, what the interface is like, and how they deal with their customers.. We go from there.

How to install VigLink, easy:

  • Register on their site (http://www.viglink.com/(really only email initially, don't be worry no CC or anything needed)
  • After registration, they present simple HTML snippet.. Copy that to clipboard..
  • ..and in your favorite blogging site, navigate to template and add a html widget
  • Drop the code from clipboard and you're done, sweet.. 

Side Step

Next moment, these templates are great, but setting up colors to match each area gives grief..

--update--

Should have known MOJO upfront, krr.. Check it here.

Step One

..ok. Step 1 done, site up and running.. easy..

How to:
- Browse through the top site of the day, use search words like "top blogging platforms"..
- You will most likely get hits something in the lines of:

Boot-up
