Quite a few people have asked how they can put a red cross donate now button on their blog like the one that I have in the upper right hand corner. You can simply do so by following the instructions on Brian Alvey’s Weblog.

Copycat Blogging - Open Mike
Ok - I’d like to start an ‘open mike’ discussion in the comments of this post on a topic that I’ve been wondering how to raise for a while now. I’d honestly like your opinion on this (I’ll keep it as a ‘hypothetical’):
If (hypothetically) you started a blog on a niche topic and started to get some popularity around it but then found that a number of your readers were starting blogs with not only on the same topic but using the same blog name and variations of your URL - how would you react?

WordPress.com Review
TECH has a WordPress.com Review - written on an actual wordpress.com blog. I’ve been invited into the alpha testing also and from what I’ve seen so far it’s shaping up to be a great system. I’m looking forward to seeing what features they add as it moves towards a beta test.

Live Blogging Resumes
‘V’ and I returned last night from our mini-break - three days of touring wineries, eating at some amazing restaurants, sitting in front of cosy fires, reading intriguing books and enjoying some sunshine and beautiful countryside.
There was no blogging, no email, no spam comments, no trolls, no earnings updates, no SEO, no interviews and no instant messaging.
Of course as usual we went away just when things heated up here at enternetusers (it seems to be the way that every time I can’t blog that some sort of controversy or massive influx of visitors happens). My announcement of reaching six figures from blogging from Adsense in 12 months caused as stir as you’d expect. The response was overwhelmingly positive and any problems were handled wonderfully by regular readers in comments. Thanks for that.
Taking a break from your entrepreneurial blogging activities is a definite must. I’m feeling now feeling refreshed and am ready for a massive month of blogging.
Over the next few weeks I’m winding down an offline project that I’ve been working on for the past six months which will mean I have an extra couple of days per week to dedicate to blogging related activities.
As a result I’ve been working with a number of other bloggers on a variety of new projects recently and am looking forward to making some announcements in the coming weeks. Some of these are large scale collaborations and others are smaller - but large or small I’m hoping that the results will be a stable and growing blogging enterprise. Stay tuned….

Blog Manager II
Peter has continued his thinking about the Blog Manager concept:
‘Instead of trying to market myself, I’d try to form an alliance with a brand name blogger. Someone who’s doing well, who people know. Someone with a demonstrated history of generating a buck from his or her blog. How would I do that? Very good question, given how busy these uber-bloggers are. I’d make them an offer they can’t refuse.
“Let’s form a partnership,” I’d say. “50/50. You supply the credibility and expertise, and I’ll do the work.” If there’s one thing a enternetusers loves its making money from blogging. This would be a hard opportunity to pass up. “What, you mean I talk to you on the phone for 10 minutes describing what I’d do, and you give me a couple of hundred bucks? Yeah, ok, let’s do it.”’

Rotating Adsense Ad Colours
Cash Keywords has a good reminder that Adsense has a feature that allows you to Create Rotating Adsense Ad Colours which is one technique that can help overcome ad blindness.
I think this is a particularly helpful tool for those blogs and websites with a lot of repeat readers. For example a site like Engadget (which has a very loyal readership) rotates the style and colours of its ads every impression. In doing so they change the look of their site subtly every time a reader logs in and in the process give their ads every chance of having their ads seen.
So if you’ve got loyal readership consider rotating your ads. On the flip side if your traffic comes largely from search engines it may be smarter to find the colour and design that works best and to stick to it rather than risk having lower performing configurations appear on your blog.
How do you do it? Here’s Google’s explanation:
‘For added variety and freshness, you can even choose to rotate through up to 4 different color palettes at a time. To take advantage of this feature, you’ll need a newer web browser with JavaScript functionality (Internet Explorer 5.5+ or Netscape 6+). However, the color choices will be visible to users of most web browsers.’

Another enternetusers Public Service Announcement
Every time I talk about the potential for blogs to earn money I generally get a lot of feedback from readers. Much of it is pretty balanced but there are two other types of responses that within hours of my most recent announcement I had in my inbox:
- readers telling me they are going to quit their jobs to become a enternetusers too
- readers telling me that I’m being irresponsible for talking up blogging as an income spinner and saying that I’m just doing it in a hypef illed way to make some quick cash myself.
So let me mention three previous posts that are companion pieces to my recent announcement:
Keep these in mind when you enter into ProBlogging and you’ll have a much more realistic approach.
Update: You might also like to check out two polls I’ve run that show that the vast majority of bloggers don’t earn much money from their blogs. Once again I’m not wanting to put a downer on the potential for blogs to earn money, ask you’ll see in the polls a small number of bloggers make very good money blogging - but I just want people to have a realistic understanding of it. Check these polls out at Adsense Earnings Poll and Chitika Earnings Poll.
Also relevant on this topic is a story I wrote of my first 3 years of blogging.

Six Figure Blogging - How Long?
One of the most common questions I get asked when people hear about my blogging earnings is ‘how long has it taken’ to get as far as I have?
The short answer is that it’s taken a considerable amount of time. I’ve been blogging since November 2002 and started to experiment with Adsense in September of 2003 - two years ago.
You can see from the following graph (of my monthly Adsense earnings since September 2003) that the growth has been pretty steady with a couple of blips along the way. The first ten or so months were very slow going but the growth since then become quite exponential as I’ve been able to dedicate more and more time to blogging and have learned more about how to get the most out of Adsense.
The motto of the story is that it takes time. As I often say - if you’re not in it for the long haul you’ll probably never see significant earnings.
PS: every time I use a graph like this people ask how I made it - the answer is Keynote - an Apple Presentation tool like Powerpoint.

Spring Clean Your Blog
Spring has Sprung here in Melbourne and so it’s an appropriate time for Spring Cleaning for those of us in the Southern Hemisphere. Duncan is extending his Spring Cleaning to his blog at Quick spring cleaning tips for your blog which includes a variety of ways to freshen up a blog:
‘Its the first day of Spring here today in Australia, and although its still fairly cool, September in my neck of the woods means that the 6 months it rains here will soon come to an end, it will be warm soon, and I’ll be a whole much more happier person (mainly because I hate winter). So what better time to write a quick spring cleaning list for blogs, but don’t despair if your North of the equator, because spring cleaning your blog(s) can be done at any time of the year: indeed I find it helps me particularly if I get into a rut, and as they say sometimes a change is as good as a holiday!’
