Blogging… It seems everyone is doing it. In fact, I asked someone the other day, “Does anyone create websites anymore?” It seems that when given the choice between a blog and a website, most people opt for blogs these days. If this describes you, I certainly understand your reasons. Blogs are much easier to setup [...]

Arial of AttackDepression.com learned a great lesson about anonymity. Even though her site has been around for 2 years, she just added an About The Author page in June. Due to the fact her site includes a lot of personal information about her own depression, she didn’t want her family and friends to find out [...]

One of the common mistakes Webmasters make is they don’t define who they are targeting. Now that everyone is learning you can profit online by writing about any topic and adding Google ads, people are often mislead.
