DatMoney Weekly Updates 2 – Merry Christmas and Link Love Thanks!

Monday, December 22nd, 2008 | Weekly Updates with 7 Comments

If you didn’t figure it out, well, this past week pretty much sucked. Let’s see, my laptop got screwed up, there were a lack of posts here (obviously), the rest of my online stuff was virtually at a standstill, there was too much damn snow here, I now have to raise quite a lot of money to pay things back and my birthday was eh (except I got to spend it with an angel).

Here are some quick updates for you guys:

I Bought a New Desktop Computer and Laptop – I figured I needed to upgrade my desktop anyways because it was already 8-9 years old. And you guys already know how my laptop crashed. Plus, I need to have a way to work efficiently online and make money.

The downside, now I have to raise some money to pay back the large bill which will force me to stop procrastinating and being lazy. Not only that but I have to try to get everything situated with my new computers.

Password for Protected Posts and E-mails – Thank you to everyone that continues to send me e-mails asking for the password. Trust me; I will get you those passwords as soon as I get my e-mail setup properly. Currently I’m able to receive e-mails but I’m having issues with my outgoing mail.

Site Flipping Team(s) – I have received every e-mail sent by you guys and a few of you guys impressed me with your introductions and why I should have you on my team.

A few of you also mentioned that we should have some sort of contest to give more incentive and push to succeed so you guys won’t slack off. I’m considering it but I want this to be more of a learning experience, for some, and for all of us to make a pretty decent chunk of change.

If you haven’t read some of my team members’ expectations already, please do so.  If these teams work out, I will definitely be working with you guys for upcoming projects.

Q&A Posts: The Answers and Backlinks – Because of my unexpected laptop crashing, like I’ve mentioned too many damn times just a couple of times, a few things got postponed. I had to set my priorities elsewhere but I’ll have the Q&A answers post and backlinks this upcoming week.

Helpful Posts – Did I mention everything got postponed? I promise I’ll have some more useful and helpful posts this week for you guys trapped in the house from the winter. Or maybe bored on Christmas? Whatever it is, I don’t want to bore you guys with these type of posts so I’ll try to get some helpful and useless ones this week.  Matter of fact, I have one scheduled for tomorrow. :)

Revisiting Old Online Projects – I have a bunch of old projects that I never finished either because I’ve been lazy, I forgot about them or I just didn’t have the time, but now I have to find the time because I’m in need of that extra cash to pay back some of these bills.

I mean, damn, I considered selling this blog so I could possibly take the easy route. But don’t worry, I’m not at that point… yet.

Please Join My Current Contest (It’s Easy!) – If you haven’t joined my contest to win a Flip Mino or iPod Nano (and more) sponsored by Market Leverage then you should get on it. All you have to do is submit an affiliate tip. A lot of people are new to affiliate marketing but who knows, your tip may very well be the best one I may read.

Special Thank You To These Folks – Quite a lot of people were nice enough to take some time out their busy day to give me some good helpful information on my laptop crashing situation so I wanted to thank you guys. You guys are here for a good read, yet, nice enough to help me out when needed too. I will probably have to follow-up with a few of you guys for additional questions as soon as I get my stupid Outlook working properly.

But thank to:

- Clint

- Vishalhd – *cough* link dropper *cough* Oh, and also, I was using Firefox if you read the second paragraph. :D

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays! – I hope you guys all have a great Christmas, enjoy the snow (make sure not to eat the yellow snow!), get great presents, eat good food, drink eggnog, etc. Have a good one!

DatMoney Weekly Updates

Saturday, December 13th, 2008 | Blogging - MISC, Other/Random, Weekly Updates with 16 Comments

updates simpsons

I think I’m going to start to get a little more organized here at DatMoney and with that said, I will start (or try) to provide weekly updates so you guys know what to expect for the upcoming week, changes and projects I have going on.

I figured not too many bloggers or online entrepreneurs update you guys enough on what to expect from their sites or even with themselves. Plus, wouldn’t you be interested in the type of posts or events I have coming up as teasers?

Since this is a short introduction of my weekly updates, I’ll try not to make this too long (but no promises).

Password Protected Posts - I probably won’t have too many of these but there are just some posts too valuable to give out to some random person who stumbles over here. But if you are an e-mail subscriber, you have first preference.

Though, I usually send out the password to everyone at once, so for the stranglers or anyone that never receive the password, shoot me an e-mail (from the e-mail address you subscribed with) and I’ll hook you up.

I’m still getting people asking about the $100/Day Adsense Password, please send me an e-mail (with the same e-mail you subscribed with) once you subscribe.

New Contest – I will be launching a new contest on Monday which is the same type that has been circulating around the Blogosphere already. But don’t worry, the prizes are still good and it just gives you more chances to win. Look out for that because it’ll be pretty easy to enter!

Brand New Mascot/Toon/Logo – I’m currently working with a great designer to try to get myself a mascot/toon to use here. I figured it’s finally time for me to separate myself from others and get myself branded so whenever my toon is seen, it’ll remind you of DatMoney.com.

I’m sure a lot of you guys are wondering why I don’t just make one for myself, well, I’m not good with mascots/toons when it comes to designing. Plus, it takes a lot of work and time.

Considering Discontinuing Designing 125×125 Buttons – I’ve been considering this for quite sometime now but I’m still up in the air with it. It’s going to be almost a year since I officially launched the idea of creating 125×125 buttons and I’m sure my long-time followers may remember my $1.00 design promotions, right?

I’m just getting too many requests and I don’t charge too much for them to begin with. And being as busy as I have been, it’s tough trying to fulfill all these requests. Though, I think I will continue to work on logos/headers but it probably won’t be as quick as it was before.

Q&A Session, Ask a Question and Receive a Backlink – I barely promoted this but it looks like not too many people were interested in asking me a question or getting backlink in return. Well, it’s still up if you want to ask a question or get a backlink. I’ll probably have those answers by mid-week.

Looking for a Team – I’m sure you guys remember that I was in a site flipping group and it went well (we sold our site for $2,000) but now I’m looking to continue a team. I currently have two members and I’m just looking for one or two more people to join.

You don’t have to be an expert but then again, I’m not looking for a newbie. I’m mainly just looking for someone that can participate, be dedicated and good at communicating with others. I know we all get busy and it’s understandable but if you think you’ll make a good team member, shoot me an e-mail.

Upcoming Posts – Besides launching my new contest and the Q&A answers post, I will probably discuss some marketing techniques as well as various niche site ideas and strategies.

My Birthday is Next Week – Yup, it is. It’s on December 19th but I don’t think I’ll be doing anything special. Matter of fact, I might do something to celebrate with you guys here. But I guess you’ll have to stay tuned for that!

Anyways, those are a few things to expect in general as well as for the upcoming week. Hope you guys check back or at least consider subscribing to my RSS Feeds. :D
