			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="pino" src="http://juffan.com/wp-content/plugins/WizardRSS/cache/f6a1b_how-to-build-a-blog-business.jpg" alt="how to build a blog business" width="200" height="314" align="left" />I started following the work of Collis Ta’eed around three years ago, when he launched a blog called Freelance Switch.</p>
<p>I suspected Collis would rock the blogosphere for a couple of reasons. He knew how to choose his niches wisely, his content was outstanding, and other aspects like design or monetization were perfectly integrated.</p>
<p>Fast forward to today, that one blog grew into a blogging empire called <a href="http://www.envato.com">Envato</a>. Collis is the CEO, and he leads a team of over 50 full-time people. All the online properties combined generate over 20 million monthly page views, yielding a seven figure yearly revenue.</p>
<p>Crazy huh?</p>
<p>But why am I telling you all this stuff? Because Collis recently launched his book, titled <a href="http://rockablepress.com/books/blog-business/">How To Build A Successful Blog Business</a>, and I just wanted to show that he is the real deal.</p>
<p>I am not an affiliate for the book, so I won’t earn anything whether you buy it or not. Collis sent me a review copy a while ago, however, and I felt like the book would be useful to many of you guys, hence the review.</p>
<p>So what is inside? Everything you need to build a blog business, and I mean it. Just consider that the book has 327 pages….<span id="more-1957"></span></p>

<ul>
<li>Case Study 1: FreelanceSwitch</li>
<li>Case Study 2: Psdtuts+</li>
<li>Case Study 3: AppStorm</li>
</ul>
<p>I think this book is really solid for one main reason: while there are dozens of books about <em>how to make money blogging</em> (i.e., how to build, promote and monetize a blog), this book is pretty much the only one about <em>how to build a business with blogs</em> (e.g., how to choose niches to enter, hire people, manage writers, scale everything and so on).</p>
<p>One part I liked were the case studies. Collis has written the complete story behind his most successful blogs, including screenshots of his traffic levels, income sources and so on. As I told him via email, I think the case studies alone are worth the price of the book.</p>
<p>If you are planning to build an online business with blogs, this book is a must read. You can get a free sample with the first chapter in the sales page too, <a href="http://rockablepress.com/books/blog-business/">so check it out</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I re-opened the <a href="http://www.onlineprofits.com">Online Profits</a> training program back in June, there were two main changes. First of all the course became virtually free. That is, you just need to create a hosting account with my hosting partner to gain a lifetime member account to the program now.The second change was the introduction of a new section in the members area, called “Live Case Study.” Inside that section members would basically follow the steps I would take to build, promote and monetize a website from scratch. I created this section because I wanted the members to gain some practical knowledge too, learning how to apply all the concepts they would get from the training material. <span id="more-1963"></span>I decided to build a mini website for the case study (also called niche website), because you don’t need to spend too much time or money building one, and once the site is “complete” it becomes a passive stream of income.</p>
<p>This doesn’t mean that making money with mini websites is fast though. I launched my mini website on July, and I was expecting to start generating some revenues with it after three or four months. But this little project surprised me. In the very first month it generated $875 in profits, and I only used free methods to promote it. I am not sure how things will evolve, but if things keep going as they are by the end of the year the mini website will be making close to $2,000 per month.</p>
<p>If you want to follow the case study and check all the steps I am taking to build and promote the mini website, with screenshots and monthly reports, you just need to join the Online Profits training program. I say “just” because it is a no-brainer right now. You’ll pay $5 or so to sign-up for a hosting account with our partner (HostNine), and you’ll get complete access to our training material, the live case study, the resources section, the content library and more. Plus, you get another hosting account, and you can use that to build your own mini website. <a href="http://www.onlineprofits.com">You can check all the details and join here</a>.</p>

<p>Hi Daniel, did you recently drop HostGator as an option for registering for the online profits?</p>

<p>Yes, HostNine is the sole partner now.</p>

<p>Hey Daniel,</p>
<p>I’m assuming you’re alluding to HowToMakeAWebsite?</p>
<p>The 101 traffic tips went big time on Twitter – really shows the impact of a pillar post.</p>
<p>I’m just assuming here but I’m just linking two things together <img class="wp-smiley" src="http://juffan.com/wp-content/plugins/WizardRSS/cache/d26c2_icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /></p>
</div>
<ul>
<li>
<div>
<p>I don’t think he monetized that site yet. And this site is not exactly a niche website, it’s also really hard to rank for these keywords, even with that domain name, especially within 1 month.</p>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>
<p>I can’t disclose what site I am using in the case study, but drop me an email if you want to know more about it.</p>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<div>
<p>Hi Daniel ,</p>
<p>I gone through your mentioned  web ,no words !!!  faculty board is enough to generate $2000 per month !!</p>

<p>Is this for real?  Can you please tell me more about it because I just want to make sure. I know $5 is just a little amount but it is still money.</p>

<div>Ever heard the saying “you can’t improve what you can’t measure”? Well, it is true. Tracking and analyzing your numbers is essential, and there is one area where most bloggers and webmasters neglect this: affiliate links.For example, let’s suppose that you are promoting an affiliate offer by commenting on other blogs and by participating in online forums. If you could track how many clicks each link you are posting is getting, you could stop working on the blogs/forums that are not sending traffic and focus on the ones that are. <span id="more-1943"></span>How do you track that data? There are software that will do it for you, but you’ll need to install most of them on your server, so you need to have some technical skills.</p>
<p>What if you don’t? That is the problem that my friend Gobala Krishnan is trying to solve with his new project, called <a href="http://www.linktrackr.com/">LinkTrackr</a>. It is basically a web  based application that will let you cloak, redirect and track the statistics on your affiliate links. Here is the complete list of features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Link cloaking, link tracking / masking</li>
<li>Full graphical stats and reports</li>
<li>Viral bar – shares your cloaked link on FaceBook / Twitter</li>
<li>Custom domain names – as many different domains as you want</li>
<li>WordPress plugin that converts keywords to your tracking links</li>
<li>Use on all kinds of static sites, BlogSpot blogs, email links, PPC ads</li>
</ul>
<p>The cool thing is the reports that are created automatically, enabling you to visualize which links are performing better, how the number of clicks is evolving day by day and so on. Here is a screenshot of the dashboard:</p>
<p><img class="bc" src="http://juffan.com/wp-content/plugins/WizardRSS/cache/4ddfd_linktrackr.jpg" alt="linktrackr" width="500" height="344" /></p>
<p>It is a paid tool, and the cost is $29 monthly. It is not cheap if you are getting started online, but if you are already making some money with affiliate marketing the tool could help you increase your profits by improving the performance of your campaigns.</p>
<p>Gobala is offering a $1 trial for the first 30 days too, so you can test the tool yourself to see if it will work for you. <a href="http://www.linktrackr.com/">Here is the official website</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>
<div>When you write for living, whether you do it for your blog or you are an author, it is crucial for your success to be persistent about writing. Especially if you are your own boss, no one is going to come and force you to start writing or whatever it is you should do today, so it is sometimes really hard to start. <span id="more-1939"></span>The motivation just always isn’t there when you need it.</p>
<p>In my opinion, one of the biggest things that separates the most successful people from others is that successful people are able to stick to their habits and get things done even when the first burst of motivation wears off, and they are able to do the crucial things for their long-term success even during those days when you just don’t feel like doing anything.</p>
<p>Consistency is the key, and sticking to right habits every day can get us anywhere we want to in just one or two years. The good question is: how can you get things done even when you don’t have a slightest bit of motivation?</p>
<p>Here are my favorite tips for being able to start writing, no matter how unmotivated or distracted you are:</p>
<h2>1. Kill the negative thoughts</h2>
<p>Replacing your negative thoughts with more positive ones is the first thing you should do. At least for me, negative thoughts are the main reason behind procrastination. It is only natural; sometimes you feel good about everything, believe that your future is going to be bright, and feel that your blog or book is going to be a success. The other days your mind just plays tricks on you and keeps telling you that you are going to fail and there is no reason to continue on your path.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, your mind is always right.</p>
<p>If you keep telling yourself that you will succeed, you will succeed, and if you keep repeating that you will fail, you will fail. Don’t let your mind take control. It is sometimes like a feather in the wind, and you are the only one who can really take control of that feather, tame it, and put it where it belongs.</p>
<p>First, observe your negative thought externally. Think about how realistic it really is that you are going to fail, if just one week ago you felt like everything is going great. If saying aloud “I can do this!” a few times does not help, think about how many how many average people with no extraordinary skills have succeeded. If they have been able to do it, so are you!</p>
<p>Another thing that helped me to get rid of my negative thoughts today was thinking about my life in the long-term. I felt that I am not moving anywhere at the moment, but then I reminded myself about the fact that I am doing what I do at the moment for the long-term goals, and it doesn’t matter where I am at the moment if I just keep on doing what I love.</p>
<p>You have all the time in the world, so don’t rush, and if you still haven’t succeeded, you will find the way eventually if you just stay positive and persistent.</p>
<p>After you have killed your negative thoughts you can start writing.</p>
<h2>2. Focus on the benefits</h2>
<p>If replacing your negative thoughts with more positive ones was not enough and you still were not able to overcome your procrastination and lack of motivation, focusing on the benefits of the reaching your short-term goal should do the trick.</p>
<p>Remember the feeling you have got after you have been able to finish your crucial tasks, such as writing a great article? What about the feeling you had when you did something difficult that helped you to move forward in your life, career, or business?</p>
<p>I remember the feeling I had when my first guest post was published and I had a burst of traffic to my new website. What could motivate you more than thinking about the feeling you had when you were able to achieve something important by writing?</p>
<p>It doesn’t even take a huge success story to get the amazing feeling – just taking a few steps daily that take you a little bit closer to your bigger goals can give an incredible satisfaction and bring a smile on your face.</p>
<p>You can achieve the same feeling really soon just by starting to write now.</p>
<h2>3. Take baby steps</h2>
<p>Sometimes the bar is just too high compared to your motivation, and even thinking about starting makes you feel overwhelmed.</p>
<p>Why not lower the bar? If your initial plan for the day was to write three perfect articles, send 15 e-mails to your potential business partners, report everything you do to your Twitter followers every second hour, and write 10 blog comments to your favorite blogs, maybe it’s just too much for you today.</p>
<p>I have personally set myself quite a low daily bar for achievement, when you compare it to the most efficient people out there, but hey, this is my life, so I am not ruin it by getting a burnout. If success is not possible without a burnout, I don’t want to succeed.</p>
<p>I have decided that no matter how unmotivated I feel, I am always going to write one article every day, except for the days that I decide to relax, and I usually give myself one or two days completely off every week.</p>
<p>When I do have the motivation, I can then achieve a lot more, but it’s good to have a minimum level of daily work that you are able to achieve, no matter how much you would like to do something else.</p>
<p>Writing one article a day is not that much. However, it is heck of a lot better option than doing nothing during the days you just don’t have any motivation. Remember that one article a day equals 365 articles a year, which is much more than most people will achieve even if they seem to be working eight hours a day in an office.</p>
<p>If even writing one article overwhelms you, start now by writing a title and one paragraph. That should not be too much, and just by starting you make it so much easier to then continue.<br />
Start now by writing just one paragraph.</p>
<h2>4. Get inspired</h2>
<p>When the blank sheet in Word stares at you and your head seems to be as empty as the sheet on your computer screen, inspire yourself. If you only focus on exporting information from your brains, you can easily run out of ideas at some point.</p>
<p>Instead, spend some time every day by reading interesting books, observing things that happen around you, reading magazines, and reading the best and most inspiring blogs.<br />
Is there a person that has achieved the things that you would like to achieve? Look at what he or she has done and get inspired. Don’t copy, but pick some points or ideas for example of others’ writings and then apply those things to your own life.</p>
<p>Google is one of my best friends. I can ask Google anything and it will give me lots of great answers to choose from. Finding inspiration has never been easier than it is today, so instead of procrastinating, find something interesting right now, enjoy the moment, and get inspired.<br />
When you have found something amusing, just start writing. Someone out there is already waiting to hear what you have to say.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Segala sesuatu akan lebih baik bila dikerjakan dengan menegement yang bagus, demikian pula sebuah web. Dasar-dasar management juga berlaku untuk sebuah web. Web yang memuat banyak konten dan katagory sangat sulit bila hanya ditangani sendiri. Sebagai contoh bila anda memiliki seratus katagory, dan setiap category memiliki paling sedikit 50 konten, sudah ada 5000 konten yang mungkin selalu diperlukan untuk diupdate atau di remove dan lain sebaginya. Belum lagi bila setiap katagory memiliki klasifikasi yang berbeda-beda, pasti membutuhkan penanganan secara khusus. Ini hanyalah gambaran kecil dari sebuah masalah dari sebuah web, belum factor-faktor yang lain tentu membutuhkan perhatian yang tidak sedikit.<br />
<span id="more-271"></span></p>
<p>Hal ini perlu saya tulis mengingat belum banyak artikel seperti ini dengan bahasa Indonesia. Padahal hal ini tentu sangat dibutuhkan bagi para pengusaha web. Namun di sini saya akan menuliskan secara singakat dan mungkin hanya sekedar gambaran bagaimana management sebuah web bisa diterapkan dan dapat memaksimalkan usaha..</p>
<p>Sangat banyak web yang ditangani secara perorangan, selain web non profit juga web profit masih ditangani seorang diri, hal ini tentu mereka mempunyai alasan tersendiri., mungkin dirasakan belum perlu memenej web secara professional, sebab secara teknis masih bisa ditangani sendiri, mulai dari perencanaan, maksud dan tujuan, pemilihan term, tema, title, konten, dan segala sesuatu yang berhubungan dengan web dikerjakan secara sendiri., termasuk masalah design dan sumber dana, semua ditangani secara sendiri. Belum lagi menangani masalah koding dan keamanan. Intinya adalah menangani sebuah web sebenarnya membutuhkan menegerial yang kompleks, tidak kalah kompleknya dengan sebuah kantor berita atau departemen store. Tentu hal itu tidak dapat ditangani sendiri, membutuhkan beberapa orang yang ahli di bidangnya masing-masing untuk ditempatkan pada tempatnya masing – masing. The right man on the right place begitu kata Pak Suharno guru ekonomi di sebuah sekolahan.</p>
<p>Sebuah web yang ditangani secara personal telah menghasilkan puluhan juta rupiah, apalagi bila ditangani secara professional, tentu hasilnya akan lebih banyak dan memberi banyak manfaat kepada orang lain. Saya kira personal hanya sebutan saja untuk sebuah web yang sukses, sedikit banyak mereka pasti menerapkan system management, meskipun dalam bentuk yang sederhana. Misal bagian programmer telah diserahkan kepada yang lebih ahli, bagaian penggarapan design juga telah diserahkan kepada yang lebih ahli, bagian pemasaran juga telah diserahkan kepada beberapa orang, bagian posting, penulisan artikel, pencarian berita hangat, pemilihan materi, semua telah dibagi-bagi kepada beberapa orang, termasuk bagian Tanya-jawab dan sosialisasi web. Juga tidak kalah penting adalah bagian riset dan perencanaan web.</p>
<p>Ambil beberpa contoh : google yang berawal dari sebuah situs sederhana telah berkembang menjadi sebuah gurita public service yang menguasai sebagian besar pasar dunia maya. Web yang yang sudah dikenal secara umum dan sudah sangat sering didengar oleh telinga kita, biasanya telah menggunakan system management yang  baik. Dikerjakan secara professional. Misal oprah com, kickandy com, detik com, serta perusahaan media masa dan public service pasti sudah menerapkan system ini di dalam pelaksanaannya.<br />
Web sudah menjadi sebuah perusahaan yang menghasilkan banyak uang serta banyak tenaga kerja yang dibutuhkan untuk sebuah web. Berapa juta rupiah telah melewati satu web? Berapa ratus karyawan telah bekerja untuk satu situs? Berapa bidang usaha telah membutuhkan web itu? Berapa orang yang ahli di bidangnya menjadi stafnya?</p>
<p>Manfaat management<br />
Apakah perlu management ? sebuah pertanyaan yang mungkin muncul di benak anda manakala membaca tulisan ini. Memang web yang sederhana dirasa belum diperlukan management. Sebab masih bisa ditangani sendiri. Tetapi bila anda menginginkan hasil yang lebih besar maka management sangat diperlukan. Semakin besar target yang ingin anda raih semakin besar management diperlukan. Tapi bila anda tidak ada keinginan untuk maju dan berfikir untuk perkembangan web anda, maka tidak akan ada perubahan dan kemajuan. Dengan management, pekerjaan anda akan jadi ringan dan lebih tervokus, sebab semua pekerjaan telah dikerjakan oleh orang yang ahli dibidangnya masing-masing. Dengan management usaha anda akan semakin maju dan berkelanjutan, sebab tidak hanya anda sendiri yang memikirkan kemajuan usaha anda tapi juga orang-orang yang telah anda pilih untuk mengelolanya. Sehingga anda tinggal mengawasi dan memberikan arahan serta persetujuan saja.</p>
<p>Tentukan posisi<br />
Setiap orang yang telah masuk dalam lingkungan suatu management akan teikat oleh aturan yang ada. Juga terikat hubungan saling bekerja sama dan saling membantu dengan orang lain di management yang sama, dan semua mempunyai peran yang penting dalam suatu management untuk kemajuan usaha anda. Setelah anda mengetahui kemampuan dan bakat dan keadaan anda, maka anda akan tahu dimana posisi anda yang paling nyaman. Sebab semua kedudukan mempunyai tanggung jawab dan keahliannya sendiri-sendiri. Sehingga bila anda mampu menempatkan orang sesuai dengan keadaan dirinya, maka anda akan mendapat tempat yang sesuai dengan diri anda.</p>
<p>Seorang artis yang banyak job, dia sering diundang untuk mengisi acara tv dan seabreg pekerjaan menumpuk pada dirinya, maka dia butuh mengangkat seorang manager untuk mengatur segala sesuatunya, sehingga semuanya dapat berjalan dengan lancar.</p>
<p>Seorang yang kaya raya, yang mempunyai gagasan, dan dia ingin mewujudkan gagasan itu,maka dia bicarakan gagasan itu dengan rekan dekatnya, dia tidak hanya perlu rekan untuk bicara tapi dia juga perlu manager yang bisa mewujudkan mimipinya itu, maka dia mulai mencari siapa yang bisa menjadi maneger usahanya itu.</p>
<p>Seorang yang hanya mempunyai gagasan dan tidak ada uang dan tenaga, bahkan dia tidak mempunyai keahlian yang specific, dia hanya bisa buat proposal, daftar gagasan dan daftar harapan. Dia masih beruntung, sebab masih punya harapan dan mimpi. Kemudian dia sodorkan proposal itu kepada orang-orang kaya untuk bisa jadi sponsor usahaya itu. Namun proposalnya selalu ditolak, dengan alasan bahwa gagasannya kurang bermanfaat,<br />
Tapi dia tidak berputus asa, maka dia cari cara yang lain, sehingga menemukan orang yang bisa membantu mewujudkan gagasannya itu.</p>
<p>Apakah anda seorang penulis ? Apakah anda seorang artis ? Apakah anda seorang pekerja ? Apakah anda seorang designer ? Apakah anda hanya mempunyai mimpi saja? Apapun keadaan anda, latihlah kemampuan anda dan tentukan posisi anda sebelum menentukan posisi orang lain.</p>
<p>Lebih lengkap saya tulis dalam bentuk pdf file, silahkan lihat document saya <a title="management web" href="http://www.scribd.com/people/documents/3339048?from_badge_documents_button=1" target="_blank">di sini.</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Satu kesalahan yang sering dilakukan oleh blogger pemula adalah, saat mereka diberi petunjuk untuk keluar dan menjalin hubungan dengan blogger lain, mereka langsung menunjuk bintang dan berharap bisa meraihnya. Mereka langsung menghubungi blogger yang sudah ngetop abis atau yang ngetopnya ampir abis, bagaimana mungkin orang yang sudah ngetop mau berteman dengan orang yang tidak ngetop, jarang terjadi di dunia ini maaan&#8230;. </p>
<p>Blogger yang ngetop tuh ya biasanya super sibuk, mereka biasanya dikontak setiap hari oleh penggemarnya. Jadwal mereka sudah penuh, memberi seminar, ceramah, workshop, tulis sana, tulis sini, ngurusin anak bini, belum lagi ngurusin blognya sendiri. Mereka mendapat request setiap hari, entah itu yang cuma mo kenalan, minta tandatangan, minta duit, ngajak kencan, minta link ampe ada yang berani minta kawin, dan beberapa pemintaan tidak masuk akal lainnya.  Dan tentu saja tidak mungkin si blogger yang ngetop tadi bisa melayani semua permintaan tersebut. <span id="more-140"></span></p>
<p>Beruntung jika kamu bertemu dengan blogger yang udah ngetop tapi masih mempunyai sifat rendah hati, baik budi, suka berbagi, dan murah hati. Maka permintaan mu mungkin saja dilayani, tapi itu jenis yang sudah sangat langka,, bahkan mungkin sudah punah. Tapi aku (Yaro) beri tahu ya, ini berdasarkan pengalaman pribadi ku lho (Yaro). Saat blog mu mulai terkenal maka kamu akan banyak mendapat request setiap hari, dan memang tidak realistik jika harus menjawab semuanya setiap hari, bisa-bisa habis waktu hanya untuk menjawab setiap email yang masuk. </p>
<p>Makanya pada kebanyakan kasus jika kamu hanya mengirimkan request pada blogger yang ngetop, jangan harap akan segera dibalas.  Elo hanya akan mendapat perhatian dari blogger yang ngetop jika elo juga sudah ngetop, itu yang namanya peer atau seimbang, sebaya, selevel, sekelas, nyaho&#8217; ? Saat kamu sudah mendapat traffik, cepat atau lambat elo akan mendapat perhatian, karena elo sudah mempunyai kredibilitas. Adalah cara yang lebih pintar jika elo menghubungi orang yang se-level dengan mu. Orang yang mempunyai traffik, dan tujuan yang sama dengan elo akan lebih terbuka untuk melakukan link exchange atau tukeran link, berbagi traffik, dan menjalin hubungan. </p>
<p>Maka dari itu cari orang yang se-level dengan mu, untuk diajak bekerjasama membangun traffik dan membuka jalur komunikasi. Jika kamu mempunyai kesulitan dalam menjalin hubungan dengan yang se-level, misalnnya kamu dicuekin, dicibirin, diketawai&#8217;in, bahkan mungkin diludahin, ludahin saja lagi (eh nggak ding, becanda). Maksudku kirim ebook ini (Blog profits blueprint) kepadanya, biar dia juga tahu dan nggak kuper lagi (hehehe..), biar dia sadar betapa banyak manfaatnya jika menjalin hubungan dengan yang setingkat. (Hayo&#8230;siapa yang mau ?) (bersambung)</p>
