Search For Blogging is a young yet dynamic blog which was launched in September 2007. Within 6 months, the number of unique visitors exceeded 21,000 by the closing of February. There are currently 116 posts and 766 comments, contained within 13 categories and 52 tags.

I target much higher statistics for 2008. I work non-stop to double, or maybe triple above statistics in 2008. Therefore above results are not satisfactory, yet they are still an important milestone for me and my blogging career. That’s why i wanted to share them with my fellow readers.

What are Email List Profits?

I certainly agree with this : an email list is one of the most powerful marketing tools you can have on the Internet. Your blog and your email list are the perfect combination for a successful online business.

You may use your email list to develop relationships, to deliver value added content and to communicate with your audience. If you aim to make money through advertising and affiliate marketing, you should definitely use your email list.

What is the Big Advantage of An Email List?

Remember the last time you posted an announcement in your blog, and the response you got from your audience. What was the average response time ? One day, two days, or a week ? In my cases i still get response from my audience three days after i published the announcement.

This proves that if you are in need of immediate response from your audience, a single blog post is not enough. You need to send a message to your email list in order to get immediate response. If you support your blog announcements with an email announcement that would be perfect!

Do you Really Need an Email List?

Depends on your future goals. Experts say that you can still make money without an email list. However, if you are willing to multiply your earnings, then you definitely need to use an email list.

When you have a few thousand members in your email list, chances are you will be making very good money. Imagine you add 5 new subscribers per day, that’s 150 a month and 1800 a year. Don’t push yourself too much, when you have so many members, things will be growing at light speed!

Aweber Test Drive

Would you like to try Aweber ? Please take the test drive by signing up to free demo. Please do not worry, they won’t start spamming you. They are very sensitive about SPAM mails. They will only send you the information you request from their side.

Part 3 will mainly focus on how you can profit from your email list. I am looking forward to receive your comments about Aweber after you take the test drive. Should you have any questions regarding Aweber, please ask me. I will be more than happy to help you.

I am 34 years old and i remember the first time i discovered a PC. I was 13 and it was a 48K Sinclair Spectrum. Playing with PCs, upgrading & optimizing them have become a habit for me since then. I like to follow the developments in PC technology and apply them immediately.

If you have similar interest and looking for a reliable company i strongly suggest you to check PC Kits website. Their slogan is “Easy AS My PC Kits”. They include everything you need to build your own computer in their PC Kits.

They also include plain English instructions with lots of illustrations. You may get upgrade kits to increase your ram or replace your CPU. You just need a screwdriver to do all of these.

They categorized the PCs into three; Gaming, Business, and Basic. Prices seem affordable to me when compared to the market levels. Just like IKEA did in the furniture industry, you save money with PC Kits by building your own PC.

Why should you pay hundreds of dollars for just a PC upgrade ? If you learn the basic concepts, you will eventually see how enjoyable it can be to make your own PC and then upgrade it. You can save hundreds of dollars everytime you need an upgrade or PC change this way. Because you will not pay someone to do this for you. You can approximately save $100 per PC by building it yourself.
