Hope you enjoy the links, what is the best post you have read this week?
As many of you will know I ran a small survey of bloggers to try and get some statistics about bloggers. The survey is still open if you want to get involved, you can find details here: ‘The Bloggers Survey #1‘.
So I thought I would give you a few updates on the bloggers that make up the blogosphere. I will run through some of the stats that I have gathered so far, you may find them useful when working on your blogs.
Q1. How Many Blogs Do You Run?
The rest are spread between 1 blog and 5+ blogs but the majority of bloggers surveyed run 2-3 blogs. This means that bloggers are sharing their time between blogs and can leverage the power of each blog and share it amongst the others. It also means that bloggers are in a good position to network with other bloggers as they have a large target area.
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.
Performancing 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.
