Simon’s Notes

You can have the best blog in the world, but it will be useless to you if you don’t get people regularly visiting it. There are many ways to generate traffic to your blog, but one of the ways that I find works quite well, and is quite fun at the same time, is joining and being active in a blogger’s community.

What is a blogger’s community? A blogger’s community is essentially a club, there are lots of different clubs that you can join, but the basic purpose for joining is the same, to meet other bloggers, make friends, exchange links and reviews, and create a buzz for your blog.

The procedure is quite simple. I would suggest that you start with one community that you know you can be quite active in. The reason for this is that if you sign up with all the blogging communities out there, you won’t be able to be on top of them all, and if you try, you could easily get quite discouraged and eventually quit all together. So start with one that you’re comfortable with and be as active as you can.

Here’s a list of some of the most popular ones:

mybloglog
blogcatalogue
bumpzee

Personaly, I like MyBlogLog and I would definately recommend it. Join up, register your blog, and start promoting.

There’s a few ways to promote. Start by searching for other blogs like yours and join their groups, you should get some hits this way. You can also look for other bloggers with similar interests and become friends with them, most of the time the blogger will reciprocate this. And last but not least, leave a lot of comments.

That should get you started, you can easily figure out the ropes from here, and once you’re comfortable, sign up for some of the other ones.

Its Sunday today, and I want to relax. So my post’s today won’t be about business, and this post will be about something else that I’m quite passionate about, soccer.

I’m Portuguese, and in my opinion, Portugal has the best wingers around, not only that, but Portugal has consistently produced the best wingers. I’m sure that some of you might disagree, so in the hopes of changing your mind I’m posting some youtube videos for you to check out.

Enjoy, I know I will.

1. Cristiano Ronaldo.

2. Ricardo Quaresma.

3. Luis Figo.

4. Simao Sabrosa.

The stock market has got to be one of humanity’s greatest mysteries. I you can master the stock market successfully, it can make you a millionaire, or maybe even multi-millionaire, but if you disrespect it, it can ruin your life completely. That’s why it can be a huge advantage to have an expert at first to show us the way.

Indian-Share-Tips is a great blog if you’re looking for tips or advice on the subject. From my understanding, the author majors on the Indian stock exchange, which is always going to be a good market for serious investors, as India is still a growing economy.

Not only does this blog cover the stock market, the author blogs quite a bit about making money online, which is a topic that we are all interested in. One post that I especially liked warns us to stay away from scam paid-to programs.

To sum up, I found this blog had a wealth of information, and the layout was fairly decent. With a little work, this blog could become quite appealing, the great content is definitely there, and that is the most important.

Go check it out.
