As many of you may have noticed I have not done any updating this week, this is because I decided to take a week out. I have been working really hard on all of my sites and blogs over the last month and have put a lot of other activities in my life on hold.

The last week has made me realise that I need to spend less time working online and focus on the things that are really important in life. I spend a lot of my time blogging, reading other blogs, updating my other sites, checking stats and advertising. The combined time of all these activities mean that it takes up a huge chunk of my week.

The result is that I have decided to stick to just one blog, this one. I currently have two other blogs and a number of money making sites. I am now going to sell all of those and focus all of my energies on ProTycoon.com and free up some more time to actually have a life.

PerformancingAdsPerformancing which is a large blogging community last week launched their their new Ad Network, Performancing Ads. The Ad network is focused at bloggers by focusing on the 125×125px banners that are the most popular choice for bloggers.

I have recently signed up to the Ad network to get a feel for what it has to offer and to see if it is beneficial to me. Here are some key points that I have noticed:

  • The Ad network is good for anyone looking to buy/sell 125×125 banner ads. It is more focused at these ads and has a large market place.
  • All the payments, bookings and Ads are managed by Performancing, so it reduces your work load.
  • You can book your own ads. This is useful if like me you offer away some Ads on your blog, you can simply buy the space yourself for free.

I hope you enjoy the selection of fine links above.

Just to let you all know that I may be away for a few days soon, so I am offering the opportunity for people to have guest posts featured on ProTycoon.com. If you would like to have a guest post featured then please contact me.
