Blogging For Money

Introducing my first free web directory project, Link Muncher Web Directory which I intend to keep as a free web directory for as long as I own it it. This is part of my experimentation with a totally-free web directory.

MFA, affiliates or redirect websites will not be accepted at all.

So submit to Link Muncher Web Directory today and show that you appreciate this latest effort to maintain a free web directory for your backlinks and SEO needs.

For some strange reason, Google decided to make some sort of adjustment to their PageRank algorithm. The result of that was my flagship blog dropped its PR by -1 to PR4. I find it strange because this is certainly not an update and out of all my sites, only my blog has suffered from a decrease in PageRank for some strange reason. Fortunately my web directories did not suffer a tumble due to this change, although many directory owners have experienced a -1 tumble in their PR as well.

Bid for position directories are currently one of the popular methods on the World Wide Web, and there are many web directories which are following this new concept. In order to get a listing in this type of directory, all you have to do is to bid for your link position according to the minimum bid, and add to it in order to improve its position. Basically, the idea behind it is that the more you pay for your link, the higher the position of your link compared to others. There is certainly something alluring about this new way of advertising and we feel that gaining attention and traffic via bid for position directories is certainly around to stay for a long time.

A web directory is a collection of web sites which are organized into different niche categories and sub-categories, usually by a human editor who will scrutinize the listing before approving it into the directory. The difference between directories and search engines is that all web sites in a directory are selected by hand after undergoing various review criteria, whereas search engines use softwares to automatically index the web pages with no regard for quality. Thus this means that a web directory is a biggest source for the searching and browsing through the best web resources.

A web directory can also be focused on a general collection, or it may also be a niche directory which collects a good list of blogs sorted by categories, or what one may refer to as a blog directory. Blogs have always been an ultimate source for getting some of the best information, therefore it is a good idea to collect them into a directory. A good example of this type of directory is the Alive Blog Directory, which is a quality directory with high traffic containing various blogs for you to look up. So do not forget to check out this directory in order to subscribe to the many famous blogs that regularly post something new.

I am no longer the owner of Bid Your Links, the bid directory has been transferred to the new owner’s server this morning and the transaction is almost completed. All is left is for the $$$ to be transferred to me. I feel a little sad to let it go but considering that the sale is worth USD1.5K, I suppose it is well worth it.

Now I am starting on a new bid directory project and I have instructed my web designer-coder to design a template for Bid Your Web. The name of the directory was suggested by my darling, so I decided to take that name. If you want to submit your websites or blogs to the new bid directory, you can do so. I will spend at least USD300 on promoting this directory, it will be bigger and better than the last one.

Never thought that I’d neglect blogging for so long but I have a reason for that. Still waiting the final outcome of the impending sale of my bid directory which the buyer has agreed to purchase at USD 1.5K. My intention was never to sell it but after consultation and receiving advice from many others in the industry, I decided to sell it and start a new one However, I will only start aggressive promotion of this bid directory once the sale goes through and I receive the $$$.

In other news, I’ve begun to discover the joy of selling sponsored links in WordPress themes (already making some $$$ from it) and bought the license for Mishre Directory to open its doors. I am focusing more on income from web directories and have yet to fully realise the potential of selling sponsored links in WP themes (although I have three themes on standby to be coded), I will touch on that later. To put it simply, however, I am no longer depending on blogging as my sole income source. I’d advise those of you who are serious about generating income online to never fully rely on one internet source for your moola needs. Try starting a web directory if you have a good domain name and server space to spare. You would need to spend for advertising but once the submissions start to come in, the rewards are enormous.
