    Last week I outlined my initial response to receiving no traffic to my blog for a full 7 days, something I have called traffic flatline.

  • Measuring Progress Against Targets

  • Giveaways – Now and Then

    As I’ve mentioned before I tried building a list using Giveaways back in 2010. At the time I was advised to use PLR products or ones that had Master Resell Rights, and not to pay to upgrade until I had about 50 people on my list. This year I’m trying again and I’ve turned the…
