How to Switch From Blogger to Own Domain

If you have a blog on blogger and would like to switch to your own domain then you should visit How Do I Switch Blogger To Custom This has to be one of the most detailed explanation I have ever come across. One of the reasons why many don't switch to their own domains is because they don't know how, including me :) Etienneteo gives an easy step by step explanation. One downfall from switching is you have to wait to get whatever rank you had back up and since mine is only a 1, I guess I should start now. :) But if you are with some companies that pays you to blog, then having your own domain name is a plus.

Is Your Alexa Ranking Going Up?

My Alexa score has been rising every week. At first I thought it was just my blog until I googled it. In the Payperpost forum this question was asked and most have seemed to notice and increase in it. Just in case you didn't know, the lower your score is the better so going up isn't popular with Alexa.

Have you noticed a change in your score and does it makes a difference to you?

I Love SpicyPage

I have read some blogs mention their opinions of SpicyPage and I wanted to give mine also. I love SpicyPage! You can view other blogs and vote on them and also start your own group. I vote thumbs up for everyone. No one wants a negative vote and it doesn't make me feel better to vote badly for someone. I would rather skip their blog than to vote negatively but that's just me. Be positive to others and positive things will happen to you. Also it makes me feel better. My very first vote came from Maccise and that made my day. Voting for others also encourage them to visit your blog. I know I went straight to Maccise site and it is filled with interesting movies.

I also have experienced being #1 for the first time on a site. Woohoo!! I don't care how long it lasts, just felt good to get there. Also it is bringing me more traffic so another plus to the site. If you haven't joined so far, what are you waiting for? There are so many categories that can get you to the top 100 such as the number of votes you get or give, being the friendliest, being the most active, and they will also put you on the front page just for logging in last. SpicyPage is free and its a great place to meet new friends. Stop by their blog for the latest updates.

Alexa Ranking!!

I just had to post this! I just, I mean just downloaded the Alexa toolbar after reading DoshDosh and my Alexa ranking dropped from 1,229,000 something to 1,094,420 in like 10 seconds. How neat is that! I didn't believe it but it dropped right in front of my eyes. My page rank according to siteranks is now a 1. I just searched my website through the Alexa toolbar and alakazam(however you spell it) it worked! So I guess now I am going to try out some more of his tips.

Thanks DoshDosh

BegForPost

Have any of you heard about BegforPost I just happened to come across the site today. Apparently you just basically ask for a review of your site and target the author that you wish would write about you. When I first saw the site, I thought it was related to PayforPost Am I the only one that notice the layout comparison? Hmmmm. Anyway seems like a good idea.

This makes me want to put on a tshirt that says "Will Blog for Food". You think it would sell?
