This weekend I'm off to my brother's wedding. And over the past few months I've been upgrading the recipe section of my website. I've also started a campaign help Stefan to try and re-unite the woman I love with her father who's dying in a hospital in Sierra Leone (Stefan is a refugee in Senegal, having sruvived the conflice of two civil wars). If you can spare just $1 to change someone's life (and get your name posted on the web) then plase help us. If you are a website owner then your $1 will get you a permanent link on one of the site's one dollar links pages. For $10 you get a permanent listing on the campaign's home page
Personally I'm working on a number of information products, each with good content and targetted at various adsense niches. I've also been involved in essential housekeeping tasks on my website such as asjustinig the placement of adsense ads, altering the look-and-feel of various web pages as well as adding new campaigns and advertising materials. One of the big things has been a mobile-phone based minisite an information-based site which I hope, with some judicious advertising, will bring-in some good adsense revenue.

6 Quick Steps to Advance in Ebay Income
by Sean R Mize
So you have started an Ebay business and would like to take it to the next level because you have heard so much about making a productive Ebay income. Here are 6 steps to help you advance your Ebay business.
Step 1: Quality
Even if you are dealing in pre-owned items, you can screen them more carefully for quality. This is important because you can’t get as much money for lower quality items, yet they still take the same amount of time and money to sell.
Step 2: Prices
Productive Ebay income means making more than you spend on advertising, shipping, handling, etc. Make sure you can be fair to your customer and still make a few bucks—if not, don’t carry the item.
Step 3: Photos
Whenever you can, use good photos of your items. Again, however, be fair. Don’t disguise or hide flaws in the product. It will come back to bite you later.
Step 4: Descriptions
If no one understands your descriptions, they are not going to buy your merchandise. Productive Ebay income is as much a matter of communicating with your customers as it is a process of buying and selling things.
Step 5: Accept Returns
Let people know that they can return items for the full purchase price. This will take the risk off them without placing it squarely on you—you can always resell. This will help you get good feedback from customers who would have ordinarily been dissatisfied.
Step 6: Feedback
If you offer your buyers good feedback, they are more likely to purchase from you again later. For productive Ebay income, keep your customers coming back.

Getting your Website Noticed
As the old internet adage goes 'Content is King', but if you're putting-up new and unique content on your site how can you get that site of yours noticed?
If you have a content-based site then you're probably monetizing your site using Google's AdSense. If you're not then I suggest that you sign-up here:
This will give you money on a PPC (pay-per click basis) and is an excellent way of monetizing an information-based site (I use it extensively). This gives you a stream of revenue, but it still doesn't necessarily mean that you will get any money, as you'll need visitors for this to happen. So, how do you attract visitors to your site? You can learn some information about this in my Internet Marketing Information. Take a look at the content there and I hope you will lern a number of new things.
But, one major source of traffic (and page rank) that almost everyone with an information-based website forgets is Wikipedia. Yes, the free on-line encyclopedia that almost everyone has heard about. Have you ever thought where those articles come form? Well, they originate with people like you and me writing them in the first place. If you have new information not on Wikipedia and you can write an article about this (or extend an existing article) then you can cite your website as the original source of the information. I've been using this a lot with a number of the rare African spiecs that I've managed to obtain on trips to West Africa. None of these were in Wikipedia before, so I get to write a new page with a completely novel entry. I'm also able to link back to my original reference on the source as well as a link to one of my growin number of African Recipes which have traditonal recipes incorporating many of these spices.
Wilipedia has a Page Rank of 8 and is an excellent place to put in-coming links to your site as its strong PR means that your site is a serious source of data. As a results your pages will tend to rank higher in Google and you will get more of your site indexed as well.
But it doesn't just have to be Wikipedia. This is only a single suggestion. Indeed, there are many other directories on the web. Another good place to go is Yahoo! Answers where you can answer questions based on the content of your site and get links to your site noticed. There are also speicfic newsgroups out there where you can add a link to your site in your signature line. Then there are specific sites linked to the specific topic areas. If one of these matches your site's content then maybe you can use them to your advantage. Basically, be creative, and the links will start coming in and your traffic will increase. For example, I've managed to more than double my site's traffic this month. More than that, I'm getting far more targetted traffic and the click-through rates on my pages have doubled as well.
Business Tip
Building your List
Even if you have a purely content-based site, this doesn't mean that you can get away without building an email list. You want people to return to your site and you can do that by sending out updates that you have added something to your blog, or that a new issue of your eZine has been published.
Maybe you just want to tell your subscribers that new content has been added to your site. Then again, once your list builds you may want to share product reviews or offers with the users of your site. These are all ways of increasing your site's visibility and of generating more income for you.
