blog income A blog income can be acquired via a membership siteGaining a blog income from your blogging efforts is hard work and quite often the amount of income you make each month fluctuates from month to month. You never know how many affiliate or product sales or new clients you are going to get.

Some months your blog income can be great and some months, pretty poor.

When I first started my on-line business I was recommended to create my own products and that’s what I did (and that’s what I would recommend to anyone starting on-line).

But even after creating your own products, you simply don’t know how many you are going to sell.

pawan agarwal Interview: Pawan Agarwal – MaxBlogPress Owner

Pawan Agarwal Owner of MaxBlogPress

This interview is with Pawan Agarwal, the owner of www.MaxBlogPress.com.

Whenever I build a new blog for myself or for clients I ALWAYS install several of Pawan’s free WordPress plugins including:

MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizercan save your wordpress blog from getting tagged as ping spammer

Max Banner Adseasily rotates banners to overcome ‘screen blindness’

The business model that Pawan uses is that which all bloggers should use – give something away of value and they will come back and buy.

And that’s exactly what I did.

guest bloggingGuest blogging is one of the best ways to find new visitors, customers and blogging relationships.

We know that, don’t we?

So why do so few of us actually do it?

Here are my views:

1. The Fear of Rejection

My very first guest blog was accepted and published by the mighty Darren Rowse over at problogger.net. I couldn’t believe it. He wrote back within 24 hours of asking and said ‘yes’.
