My Gradually Evolving Blog
Jan 21st, 2008 | By Kevin | Category: blogging, news, personalIf you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed with Feedburner. Thanks for visiting!
If you have been watching my blog, you have noticed a gradual evolution as we start to add more feature and tweak the look and feel. Based on our stats, I have removed the standard banners from each post, they were very distracting, and were not being clicked on so they proved pointless. The 125X125 ads did have some clicks but haven’t converted yet, so they are staying for now.
Tonight I revamped our subscription form and RSS button to try to help them stand out a little more. I’ll be spending some more time in this area next week, but what I have finished tonight will have to do for now.
I have modified the comments to remove the no follow tag, and added an image to note this in the header along with a link to my Ether.com phone consultation at $50 for 30 minutes.
Lastly, I added the Textmark.com widget tonight to start a text messaging service providing the lastest internet marketing news I see fit on a weekly basis to subscribers for only $4.99 a month plus whatever you pay per text message.
I think I’ll try to make a post each week with the latest changes to the blog as it evolves.
Coming up this week is a post where I share some of the results I experienced last week after being Stumbled by a fellow blogger and I will highlight her site in gratitude for the mention.
Good night,
Kevin
Originally from Wisconsin, I moved out to Salt Lake City over ten years ago on a six month software development contract. I now have over 15 years in software development, and was introduced to internet marketing back in 2003. During the wild west days, our business focused on content sites for Adsense revenue. As it became harder and harder to keep up with the search engines, our business has evolved, and forced us to focus on building lists and creating products. We now have a list of about 5000 interested in goal setting, and a small internet marketing list of about 500.

Dear Kevin,
Saw your Twitter re. “Gradually Evolving Blog”…
Things are looking very neat around here, my compliments on your efforts, well done.
The first thing that caught my attention after reading your post was the TopSpots widget. I found that sufficiently interesting to click on a spare slot, check it out and hey, I thought that’s definitely worth a $1! So I ante’d up for “The AdWord$ MoneyMap” listing.
I’m going to add you to my RSS (Google Reader) and keep an eye out for what’s happening here :-)
Keep up the great work!
happy regards,
Bradley
