Guest posting is a crucial, highly effective way to pour traffic in to your site and rapidly build a name for yourself. No doubt it fits perfectly into any content marketing strategy.
You’ve read plenty of are articles on how to write a great guest post. But how about attracting more writers to your own site?
It’s really an awesome time to be a Marketers Delight customer.
On Thursday, the DIY crew released Thesis 1.8.3 to all Thesis customers. It came with some new features that increased performance, WP Network support and more.
Unfortunately, the way Marketers Delight 2.0 was coded, it couldn’t support the new update. This is because it was considered a child theme and lived outside of the Thesis installation (woops).
Running your own business is no joke. Whether you’re based online or in a fancy Palo Alto office, chances are, you’re putting in more work and more hours than anyone else you know.
But are all these hours you put into your business the thing that drives it? What about luck, or fortune? Do these things have roles in how successful a business is?
I’m sitting in Barnes and Noble in Union Square, New York writing this post and looking around in amazement. What’s the big deal, it’s just a bookstore, right?
But I’m looking at a bigger picture. Something a lot bigger than just sitting in a bookstore typing away on my computer.
Chances are, you know I sell skins for the Thesis Theme. Like any other “good” WordPress theme vendor out there, I offered an affiliate program. Just because it’s something that seemed… normal.
You know about affiliate programs I’m sure. They give people incentives (cuts of commissions) to promote a company’s product. I think affiliate programs are great (and I do participate in a few), and I am not trying to bash the idea of having one.
I just don’t think they’re for me. But my most important realization: I don’t think they add much value to my business as it is today.
