Getting Links: Can’t Hurt. Might Help.
Logic tells me that I make my living off of online content, therefore the more my content is consumed, the better off my checkbook will be. Going a step further, the more people who know my stuff is out there, the more views it will get, and so on. You get the idea right?

Getting Noticed
After being online for about a month now, the blog is starting to get noticed… YEAH! Thanks to all of you who have been checking in and checking it out. Google is picking it up and some of the many directories have added a listing for me. There are about a zillion blog directories, so […]
