Week In Review – January 9, 2010
Wow the new decade is upon us. I started to write 2009 and had to correct it. Guess it has not quite sunk in yet.
The Week In Review is something that I am considering let go as part of the many changes I am doing in my business for this new decade. Not sure yet, but your comments will have a lot of weight so if you enjoy this weekly digest leave a comment below and let me know.
This is the first one of the new year and actually the first one in 3 weeks. I took some time off over the holidays and a lot of that was in planning for the new decade and deciding what was going to stay and what was going to change. Scroll down a post or two and you will see what I am talking about.
One more week left on the blog tour. It has been fun and I do recommend you consider it as the results have been quite good but it does take planning and effort. You can find out more about setting up a blog tour in Nicole Dean’s Blog World Tour Guide
Now to the blogs this week.
WordPress Made Easy
- Categories, keywords, tags and traffic
- Moving your blog to a new server
- Text widget problem with W3 validation
- WordPress releases 2.9.1
- Changing your blog to do follow
- WordPress.com or self hosted WordPress blog – what should I choose?
- Adding a disclaimer to your blog
The PLR Secrets
Three Turtle Marketing
What’s Hot
There are quite a few reviews that I have added here for evergreen products over the holidays. These are all products I use and recommend scroll down and keep reading after you finish here.
Simple Steps To Success – A new release from Shelby Carr which will help you overcome being utterly clueless in getting your business started. Includes an ebook and videos for a very reasonable price.
Skyrocketing Tactic – A new very limited PLR package from Joel Osborne. Being run as a WSO so the price increases as the number of copies sold does. Limited to just 75 copies and the topic – Make money with resell right – is perfect for adding an additional product to your arsenal.
Marketing Dashboard – Probably the best product I have seen for overcoming information overload. Marlon’s step by step instructions lead you by the hand to get your business going.
Power Start 2010 – Doug Champigny has just released a 4 week intensive mentoring course to get your business online and make 2010 your year. Check it out and as mentoring works best when you have the right fit I will be doing a teleseminar with Doug Champigny on building your business Monday night at 9 pm. Doug and I will be discussing the steps necessary to build a profitable online business. You can attend by calling in or listen online. Get the details here. Make sure to mark your calendar.
Blog Tour Update
This week the blog tour resumed after a two week hiatus for the holidays. I was at Twitter Marketing Products and will be making my last stop this week at Blog Income Life. Hope you have been following me and getting some great information as I travel from blog to blog.
Finally if you get here before noon est today I will be doing a talk at Affiliate Funnel today on Getting ready for 2010. It is free for all members and Affiliate Funnel is free just get the seminar information in the members area.
Remember to let me know if you want this format to continue as the number of comments this receives will be the deciding factor on whether or not the Week In Review continues.
Now go take action on your business today.

I just went through some of your detailed posts within your post of Jan 9, and am quite impressed. I never actually read your blog before, but will in the future, if you continue it.
The thing that distresses me about blogging is this.
Yes it is so easy to start a blog and do regular posts to it, but learning how to use the sidebar, and other areas, is very difficult. I am grateful to have found a friend to bail me out.
The 2nd problem is that I make no money with my blog. Adsense is the lowest income probably because that new plugin Advertising Manager doesn’t show my links within a blog post. I get only 5% of my Adsense income from blogs.
If you have any help of monetizing blogs, pls email me.

Mike, as a newbie to the IM scene your information is priceless. I hope you keep it up. There are too many people out there just trying to make money off an inexperienced marketer. It is truly refreshing to actually get honest help. Please don’t stop!

Hi WordPress Guy, I have a long way to go before I get to your level of WordPress Wisdom.
I just started blogging late last year and the thing that gets me is how to stay motivated. I still don’t earn enough from blogging and I’m wondering when should be the time to decide to continue blogging or not. Anyway, I enjoyed the first week in review for this year – I have yet to go through the others (first time visitor here). If they are as informative as this one, I hope you keep it!

I am in awe of your amazing energy, my friend! One week into the new decade and you’ve already crafted 10 blog posts on our own blogs plus those on your blog tour – I’m just glad you’re doing this online, as if you were writing this much offline we’d have no trees left!
As always, you continue to be one of the most knowledgeable and helpful bloggers online – keep up the heroic efforts!

Yep, 2010 is starting out great for a lot of people! I am so glad to see that, and it helps to put me to work too, seeing everyone else working hard.
My suggestion, don’t stop the week in reviews. It helps for us to catch up when we might have missed a previous post of yours.
