A while back, I wrote a post on how to make money with Squidoo Lenses and got roundly pounded for it by someone who knew much, much more than I did on the subject - which I deserved.  There’s nothing worse than someone who knows a little on a subject, writing about something and vastly oversimplifying it. 

So I won’t make that mistake again.  I’ll say, right off the bat, I know very little about making money with HubPages.  But this guy knows a lot about making money online, and he has given the floor of his blog to someone who has had some success with making money utilizing HugPages.  I therefore point you to this post: What are HubPages?  I found the information quite helpful, and I’m sure you will also.

Many of you have contacted me via instant messaging and email asking more details about Online Profits. Since it will be launching next Monday, I think I can give more details out now.

The site will be home to an Internet Marketing and Online Business training program.

There are many eBooks and courses on similar topics out there, so how is Online Profits different from them? Well, for one thing most of those eBooks and courses are produced by one person. The question I always asked myself was: how can a single person master all the different aspects of Internet Marketing and Online Business? Those range from social media to SEO, from blogging to affiliate marketing and PPC. It is a tough call, right?

The material you will find on Online Profits has been produced by top experts from different areas and market segments, including:

Michael Gray: One of the most respected Search Engine Optimization experts around the world. Michael is a speaker on several industry conferences, and he also blogs on Wolf-Howl.com and ViralConversations.com.

Neil Patel: Founder of ACS SEO, Neil has worked with companies like AOL, HP and General Motors, helping them make more money from the web. He also blogs about personal branding on Quicksprout.

Skellie Wag: Skellie is the editor and social media strategst of the Envato network, which owns some very popular online properties, including FreelanceSwitch. Over at SkellieWag.org you can find her articles on web content, copywriting and social media promotion.

I will be writing many lessons too, and editing the whole thing together. You can check the about page on this blog for my short bio.

The second difference of the program will be the breadth of its training modules. I will talk about this next Monday though.

When does it launch, and at what price?

The training program will be launching next Monday, January 12. I won’t get into pricing details yet, but I can say that the initial launch will go live at 50% of the retail price, and will be available for one week only.

On January 16 we will close the doors of the program. Why? Because we want to have all the members synchronized on their learning experience, and we also want to have a limited number of people to make sure that we will be able to provide an excellent service and to exceed everyone’s expectations.

Can we get a preview?

All the lessons will be available in text and audio format. If you want to get an idea about what they look like, check the audio player below. That is a demo of the introductory lesson on the program (you can also download it if you can’t see the audio player).

Rajasekharan asked:

What are those minimal set of WordPress plugins that you would recommend any blogger to use and which are those plugins that you actually use?

This is a question I get asked quite often, so lets take it out of the way.

First of all I don’t think there is a minimal set of WordPress plugins that I would recommend to bloggers. It depends on the blog in question, and on what features the blogger requires for it. A simple photo blogger could get away with 4 or 5 plugins, while someone building a more complex website could need 15 plugins to make it run smoothly.

Now let’s cover the plugins I am using on Daily Blog Tips (notice that this list might be different for my other blogs):

1. Akismet: Probably the first plugin I activate on any blog. It already comes with WordPress after all, and I found it to be the most reliable anti-spam plugin around.

2. All in On SEO Pack: I resisted using this plugin for a couple of years, but late in 2008 I was having a problem with duplicate meta description tags on my main content pages (homepage, page 2, 3 and so on), therefore I decided to give it a shot. I am very pleased with it, and definitely recommend to other bloggers.

3. Chunck URLs: Ever had someone leaving a comment with a really long URL that broke your site design? To prevent this problem you can use this plugin. It will break down long URLs automatically.

4. Custom Query String: This plugin is a life saver for me. It allows me to specify how many posts I want displayed on every page ...]]> Q&A: What WordPress Plugins Do You Use?

3. Chunck URLs: Ever had someone leaving a comment with a really long URL that broke your site design? To prevent this problem you can use this plugin. It will break down long URLs automatically.

4. Custom Query String: This plugin is a life saver for me. It allows me to specify how many posts I want displayed on every page type of my blog. For example, it allows me to display 8 posts on the homepage, 15 posts per page on search results, and all the posts ever published on category pages.

5. SGR Clean Archives: Personally I think that all websites and blogs should have one page where all the articles and posts ever published would be available. That is what this plugin does, it creates an Archives page for you with all your posts. As the name says, the style of that page is pretty clean too.

6. Feedburner FeedSmith: I am not sure how necessary this plugin is if you point all your RSS feeds manually to the Feedburner one. I guess I use it just to be 100% that all the subscribers will be redirected to it.

7. Related Posts: This is an old “Related Posts” plugin, but it gets the job done. To be frank, lately I am finding that it lacks in some aspects, so when I get some free time I will make the switch to the Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

8. Robots Meta: A cool plugin by friend Joost de Valk that allows you to add all the appropriate robots meta tags to your pages and feeds, disable unused archives and nofollow unnecessary links.

9. RSS Footer: This plugin allows you to add a text message or some links to your RSS footer. Additionally, it also comes with a feature to automatically add a link to the original post on the feed, which is particularly useful to combat content scrapers.

10. WP-ContactForm: A very old and rustic contact form plugin, but I love its simplicity. Somehow I also don’t get spam even without a CAPTCHA on that form, and I have been using it for years.

11. WP-SuperCache: The best cache plugin available. It has a lot of advanced features, and it gets the job done when you have sudden burst of traffic from social media.

12. GoCodes: Very light yet useful plugin. It lets you create redirects on the fly, which is useful if you want to link to affiliate programs and advertisers while keep the links pointing to your own blog. It also allows you to track the clicks on those links.

13. Subscribe to Comments: The classic plugin that allows commentators to subscribe to the comment section and receive new comments via email. Lately I also started questioning how many people actually use this feature, but for now I will leave it live on my blogs.

As you can see I just use the plugins that are essential to the running of my website. Sometimes I install new ones to test them out, but if they are not essential, I remove them right after.

First of all, I am getting married in about 2 weeks’ time.  That’s going to have a major change in my life.  How I am going to live, how I am going to accomodate my life with another lady, how I am going to work for the rest of my life.  It’s a turning point for me.  And it’s time for me to make even more money than ever because I have to get myself prepared for the expenditure of the two of us.  I am going to provide comfort to her.  I want her to live in the best life as much as I can provide her.

That’s to say that I have to make my blogs better than ever.  I have to do a better job at work.  I have to keep myself abreast in the Internet arena since this is my career.

I must say that all my ex-partners from 2004 onwards have given me the best presents ever.  That’s “experience”.  I have learned something important about being positive in life.  I have learned something about focusing on getting better and better.  I have learned something about my wants and needs.

I am seeing more and more people focusing professionally in their online business.  People such as Dan Schawbel whom I have met in midst of 2007.  He is getting his blog up to speed right now as well. Carl Ocab is also another good friend who has been working really hard online.  Been hearing him juggling between business and study.  That’s really very taxing for a 15 year old boy.  Yaro Starak is planning to focus on his blog in 2009 more than ever since he has been on travelling from places to places in 2008, ...]]> 2009 seems more exciting to me than any other years
