Comments on: Start a WordPress Blog on Your Own Site – Part 4: From Implementation to Application http://blogsolid.com/ideas/2007/start-a-wordpress-blog-on-your-own-site-part-4-from-implementation-to-application/ Ideas for better blogging Thu, 13 May 2010 11:07:55 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Lawrence http://blogsolid.com/ideas/2007/start-a-wordpress-blog-on-your-own-site-part-4-from-implementation-to-application/comment-page-1/#comment-734 Lawrence Sun, 25 Jan 2009 06:13:08 +0000 http://blogsolid.com/ideas/2007/start-a-wordpress-blog-on-your-own-site-%e2%80%93-part-4-from-implementation-to-application/#comment-734 This is a very good article and good advice on blogging and monetizing. But I think that while it is true for most blog it does not necessarily apply to all. One example I would give, the blog I just started is about lawrence children. Not a national interest at all, just local, so even though the blog is new I have put a couple of ads relevant to the blog, the kids and the area. I have one ad for the local swim team, and one for a book by a local writer about a story for kids that takes place here. I am new at this so you do know much more than I, but I hope this does not mean that the blog is going to be commercialized. You have raised doubts in my mind. I guess I will see. Thanks for this post. I will visit this blog on a regular basis. Lawrence This is a very good article and good advice on blogging and monetizing.

I mainly just mentioned the traffic which came from being spoken about by a well known blogger like Small Potato in response to the part on how important social networking & establishing good relationships is. @ Adii

You're so right when you say that speaking to those who have already achieved some success and telling them what you do helps. Which is why I got in touch with you in the first place. Looking forward to doing that interview with you for "My Blog". Interviewing a few well known bloggers has helped me gain insight, meet great people, get some attention and learn from the masters. It's a great way to build relationships, I find merely emailing well known bloggers doesn't get one very far but offering to speak about them or help them out with something which adds value to their own operation gets them off their seats quicker. I couldn't believe it when a well known blogger who I had helped with some logo design mentioned me on his site how much traffic it generated. It was my highest traffic day altogether. So don't mind me if I offer you the same adii. Nice to see you’re spreading your wings adii, nice post with some good solid fundamentals.
