How To Write Blog Comments That Finally Stand Out And Get Traffic

“Five percent of the people think; ten percent of the people think they think; and the other eighty-five percent would rather die than think.”

~ Thomas Edison, one of the greatest inventors of all times.

Why do you want to blog comment?

Some people do it to gain (more) “back-links”, hoping to influence their Google SERP rankings…

Others are commenting for direct traffic, opt-ins and (brand) exposure. What I noticed after 2 years of prestigious blog commenting though is that none of these folks have a specific strategy that they rigorously follow.

I’ll show you what exactly is a strategy and how to create one next. Hopefully, by the time you finish reading this post, you’ll have a specific “blog commenting” game plan you can follow, based on your desired … [Read more...]

Great Productivity Lessons For Bloggers From Self-Help Books: Lessons From Five Self-Help Books In Five Minutes

I have a great self-help book called How to Save an Hour Every Day. It has lots of little productivity tips and a ton of great advice, but there's one amusing irony - reading the book itself takes a few hours meaning that a simple way to save time would be to skip reading it entirely.

The same can be said for many self-help books, and useful though many of them are, they do tend to be a bit self-indulgent and ramble on. What makes this dangerous is that many people seem to be under the illusion that reading them is the same as actually improving themselves.

It's not: if you really want to improve yourself then it's no good to just read self-improvement - you need to live it. Thus, to help you benefit from the lessons in those self-help books that apply directly to productivity for bloggers, while … [Read more...]
