by Sheryl Sisk

Holy Feedburners, Batman. It’s time for the Roundup!

Seriously??) … Blogger & Podcaster: “Social Networking the News” … Blogging Pro: Debuts a wicked cool new theme for Wordpress (seriously - love) … John Chow Dot Com: Tells us why he’s not an Amazon affiliate … Problogger: And Darren R. tells us why he is Performancing: Raj Dash is “rethinking blogging as a [full time] career” and he tells us why with reference to Yaro Starak’s amazingly helpful (and free) Blog Profits Blueprint (about which, I have more to say later) … Lorelle on Wordpress: Now here’s a question for you: “How Much Crap Is In Your Blogging Bag?” (I’m scared to tell her I don’t even have a ‘blogging bag’) … Liz Strauss at Successful Blog: Way cool post highlighting 20 blog promotion guides “to inform your strategy” (I just get a shiver - 20! Strategy! How very entrepreneurial - makes me want to write a business plan and stuff) … Lifehacker: How to get your bookmarks via your mobile device … I’d Rather Be Writing: Features three ways to boost Google rankings for your blogs, and some SEO drawbacks (which not a lot of people are writing about, so kudos to Tom J.) … DoshDosh: “15 Feedburner Feedflares You Can Easily Use To Promote Your Content and Website” … Deep Jive Interests: Talks about branding for SEO purposes … Copyblogger: Using your content to attract prospects …ChrisGarrett on New Media: Also has some stuff on branding you should take a look at.
