Earnosphere: Week Ending 15/12/07

It’s that time of the week again, a number of readers have requested a link building guide for PhpBay Pro Sites so that’s coming up next week (it’s almost done). I’ve also had to remove the keyword lists as they were in violation of the Wordze TOS, so I’m going to have to pull future keyword information from a few different sources.

The last poll was interesting too. 29% of the voters thought that Monthly Revenue or Traffic figures are the best way to value a blog. I’d be inclined to go with Yearly Revenue though as this takes consistency into account, there’s no point paying 12k for a blog that’s only made 1k for the last month only when it’s made buttons before that. However, I do also agree that other factors should also attribute to the value (i.e. RSS, Email Lists & Traffic Numbers).

It’s also that time of the year, people are posting less & gearing up for the final push into Christmas. So Making Money related posts are becoming few & far between, but I’ve mixed things up a bit this week:

• I really enjoyed this video by the Legendary Warren Buffet on the Key Points to Success.
• SEO Book’s Keyword Tool now has International Data (by plugging into the Wordtracker API).
  
• Maki at Dosh Dosh outlines 16 Different Types of Website you can Build to Make Money (there’s quite a considerable few that’s been left off this list, but perhaps we’ll go into that in another post).
  
• Bruce Clays Blog shows some Practical Tips to Increase Landing Page Conversion Rates using Marketing Sherpa’s Data (If you don’t buy their reports you’re seriously missing out).
• If you’ve been using Yet Another Content Generator a YACG Mass Installer has just been released to increase your output (I personally haven’t dabbled with this, but I’ve heard good reports).
• Eli over at Blue Hat SEO has been taking Questions this week on his SEO Empire series of posts. Worth reading if you have a spare 15 minutes.
• And finally, Copyblogger highlights 58 Offers that will Increase your Profits & Boost Enquiries.

This weeks poll requires a little more brain power than normal so let’s see what you got:
