Do You Have a Sitemap?

If you have a website or a blog and you have not added your site map to Google Webmaster tools, you should take the time to do so. Back in the Stone Age when I first got online I barely knew what a sitemap was. I spent some time reading in various forums trying to [...]

Google Indexing Speed

Some time ago, I wrote a post about switching one of my Google-step-child-sites from a hand coded site to a Joomla site. I made the switch because I originally hand coded the site several years ago and things have changed since then (and I’ve learned a lot since then). Not to belabor the point (for [...]

Lessons Learned as an Online Freelance Writer

There are tons of self-help books, ebooks and blogs on how to become a successful freelance writer. I’ve read a few of them and I guess I’ll never make it big as a freelance writer. Maybe it’s my age, maybe it’s because I no longer feel the need to prove myself, or maybe it’s because [...]

Looking for Feedback

I’ve found a cool open source free software called CamStudio that allows me to create tutorials.  It captures my screen activity, thus allowing me to create instructional videos.  CamStudio isn’t new and has been around for quite some time.  I’m just thrilled to have stumbled across it.

Monetizing a Blog with OIO Publisher Software

If you look on the right-hand side of this blog you see ads in little squares of 125 x 125. I’m able to display those ads because I purchased a software called OIO Publisher.  It’s an ad management software. I came across the software because as I mentioned before I want to take this blog [...]

Into Each Life a Little Rain…

The past three days were a bit of an online challenge for me. A bored ne’er do well decided to test the security on my blogs. Apparently this person had a pretty good time inserting links for one of the well known male enhancement drugs (I hesitate to use such words on this blog for [...]
