My own hosted wordpress
October 17, 2005 at 3:23 am | In News Updates | Leave a CommentI’m switching over my own hosted blog for several reasons
- Biggest reason: I have 100% control over it. Here’s you’re kind of limited with what you can do.
- I can’t change the design here.
- I can’t upload and share files.
- other small issues.
I’m still leaving this account open and might come back if it improves, but for now I’m off to my own blog: blogvp.com – come visit now.

Google Adsense Case Study: Weblogs Inc
October 14, 2005 at 4:50 pm | In Google AdSense | Leave a CommentNew Adsense Case Study about Weblogs Inc here:
“In the beginning, probably 1 percent of our revenue came from AdSense revenue,” Calacanis recalls. But over time, and after testing and optimizing AdSense features, this revenue grew more – from $1,000 to $3,000 a day – a 200 percent increase.

Tracking Progress
October 13, 2005 at 5:05 pm | In Progress | Leave a CommentWhen I worked in the banking industy (which I’ll write about some other time), I was amazed with their obsession of having numbers on EVERYTHING and I mean everything. So I’m following the same lead and I’ve now created an excel document to be able to track and graph my earnings. Similar to what Darren has.

I’ve been using wordpress.org blogs for a while now, so it’s really similar. But this is what I expected from a hosted package.
