New Blog Created!

I decided to create the blog tonight instead of waiting till the weekend. Let's just get it installed!

This way, as well as my product creation (in a different niche by the way), I can create and post 2 articles a day - one on the blog and one with an outbound link on ezinearticles.

I used Wordpress as I know this is very SEO friendly. So far I haven't put on any Adsense - I've installed a theme but I may change it as it looks good but there could be something a lot better available.

Also installed alinks, which automatically creates links out of post keywords that you specify. So I configured it so that four common keywords will link to Clickbank products. I have another blog which has brought in a little cash using this technique so I am hopeful it will help for this blog as well.

The aweber opt-in form is yet to come.

Also installed Spam Karma 2. In my experience, without this you either have to sift through all the spam, or let it through. This kind of plugin is essential.

Also installed a statcounter plugin and Ultimate Tag Warrior. UTW is pretty cool but the Yahoo tag search feature is temperamental. Its supposed to suggest tags for you based on your post which is great, but yo have to trick Yahoo by changing your id on each post to get it to give you suggested tags. Dunno if I can be bothered to do this on every single post but we'll see.

Got delayed today due to more flat viewings so only got an hour left in the day until bedtime......should I burn the midnight oil tonight? I guess there's only one day left until the weekend so we'll see if I get any product creation done tonight.
