One thing that does really interest me and where I continually struggle against - time management. Could you give us a brief view of your system which seems to work so well? Would really appreciate it. Cheers Paul Hi Glen,

I've read a few and can tell this already. Seems like most of us fail because we want lots of money without doing the actual work. Kind of a universal problem I guess... human nature. But, successful people like being challenged, so I do have a few ball-busting questions for you: 1). How do you manage your time? Between Facebook, Ning, Twitter, and forums (for just one niche) it gets kind of overwhelming. I have a full-time job and a 2 year old son. I believe in chunking tasks so any workflow tips would be helpful. Like I said, I'm taking on a pretty tough niche (500k monthly searches) and I'm building a blog which will eventually turn into an e-commerce store. Here's what I do to keep the blog up: 1). produce daily articles based on news I receive from Google alerts in my niche 2). Scan Yahoo Answers for interesting questions related to my niche 3). Scan Neatorama, Digg, etc. for posts related to my niche 4). Once a month, I build links from Angela's backlinking packet 5). Try to post comments on blogs and forums in my niche. I'm creating a few link bait articles, widgets, and articles for submission, but the above 5 tasks keep me plenty busy. Any advice on managing it all if I can't outsource? 2). Most people who start blogs in a niche aren't really experts... and their content shows. I'm thinking of buying a few physical books related to my niche and writing blog posts based on what I read from the books. It will not only be educational for me, but it'll give me tons of great content. All I have to do is find a cool image to place on top of the post. How do you suggest people create great content if they aren't experts in their topic? 3). What's the best way to use contests to promote a site? I'm thinking of launching a contest where I ask for tips related to my niche. The best one every month will win a Nintendo Wii or iPod or something. Is it a good idea or too cheesy? If you're interested, I can share my niche with you personally. Again, it's pretty big, but I think I can tackle it. I'd rather do this than focus on 50 smaller niches. If this one works, I have like 3 more niches that I'll do as well. Maybe I'll sell a million dollar website myself! Best, Raza Glen,

Tis true everyone is trying to make a buck and you could have enticed us to an online PDF for purchase. It would've been well worth it but I more than likely wouldn't have purchased due not being certain of the quality once purchased. I am so in need of this support and great advice. I have written a small gift book for women in bad relationships and chose to self-publish and let me tell you I was not aware of what I would be in store for in trying to break into the big retail stores. I know my product is salable and its appearance is very marketable. I must prove myself, sales before I can get through to these venues. So THANK YOU!, your words of advice will be followed in hopes of seeing my goal through. Which is to help women and also donate to animal causes through a portion of proceeds and be able to make a living at this passion. I do have a question. Will it be a problem for me that my domain name is not on topic? If so, can I get the domain name specific (point the A record to my current site.....Oh can you point more than one A record to a site? I am already doing that. I'm a mess huh. LOL) and link all the others to it. I have 3 blogs as well as a website, twitter, facebook, myspace, yelp, and silly me they all have different names. What says you? I'm afraid of the response. Thank you again, Tina Glen,

This is solid, real strategy, that anyone can use to drive success for their blog and online business. There are probably easier and more effective ways to generate fast money, but i'm starting to believe that a blog is de-rigeur for ANYONE who plans to make an impact in the world, and an especially indispensable part of any entrepreneur's long-term strategy... your voice works. - Cheers You’re right on the money Glen.

I totally agree with your point about staying consistent. I've been running a street fashion site for over two years now, and things have slowly (albeit very slowly) gotten better. In the first year-and-a-half, I had many days when nobody showed up. Now, I'm getting about 40 or 50 visits a day, have started building a mailing list, and a major magazine in my town recently expressed interest in interviewing me. I've been learning lots of little things to help improve my blog - especially from sites like yours. :) It's still tough getting people to leave comments, and I need to work harder on getting more content posted (especially during the winter months), but I can feel the steady move forward. I think it also helps that I really love what I'm blogging about. Keep up the fantastic work! Hi Glen – I love your posts! I totally agree with your point about staying consistent.
