Soon after even the naysayers had
ads on their blogs so I guess it wasn't such a bad idea after all.
Not exact matches
-LSB-...] Formula companies
so vigorously market themselves, that their
ads are appearing as «breastfeeding help»
on webpage and
blog ads.
and why I was
so glad that http://www.phdinparenting.com/2009/10/02/blogher-listens-and-acts-check-out-my-who-international-code-compliant-
ads/"rel = «nofollow» > BlogHer agreed to create an opt - out category
so that bloggers that do not want to carry formula, bottle and pacifier
ads can ensure that they do not run
on their
blogs.
It's a head scratching scenario at face value, because while calories and the energy balance equation do ultimately matter for weight loss — as I've said
ad nauseam
on this
blog — sometimes the «math» of that equation isn't
so neatly expressible with basic arithmetic, ie, calories in < calories out, or the now eye - rolling verbal version, «eat less move more.»
(And really, 7 lbs of mac and cheese doesn't sound all that bad to me) PS - I wanted to tell you, I saw your
ad on Anne's
blog this morning and love it —
so pretty!
Granted, I am very fortunate to get the c / o gift cards from Shopbop from running
ads on my
blog but I still feel a teeny bit guilty about owning something that costs
so much!
(cont'd)- I'm giving away hundreds of listings
on the Vault, and as a result of doing
so, won't see one thin dime of income
on the site until October or later - Given all the time and money I've already sunk into developing the site, I don't even expect to earn back my upfront investment until sometime next year - I'm already personally reaching out to publishers
on behalf of authors who are listed in the Vault,
on my own time and my own long distance bill, despite the fact that I don't stand to earn
so much as a finder's fee if any of those contacts result in an offer - I make my The IndieAuthor Guide available for free
on my author site and
blog - I built Publetariat, a free resource for self - pubbing authors and small imprints, by myself, and paid for its registration, software and hosting out of my own pocket - I shoulder all the ongoing expense and the lion's share of administration for the Publetariat site, which since its launch
on 2/11 of this year, has only earned $ 36 in
ad revenue; the site never has, and likely never will, earn its keep in
ad revenue, but I keep it going because I know it's a valuable resource for authors and publishers - I've given away far more copies of my novels than I've sold, because I'm a pushover for anyone who emails me to say s / he can't afford to buy them - I paid my own travel expenses to speak at this year's O'Reilly Tools of Change conference, nearly $ 1000, just to be part of the Rise of Ebooks panel and raise awareness about self - published authors who are strategically leveraging ebooks - I judge in self - published book competitions, and I read the * entire * book in every case, despite the fact that the honorarium has never been more than $ 12 per book — a figure that works out to less than $.50 per hour of my time spent reading and commenting In spite of all this, you still come here and elsewhere to insinuate I'm greedy and only out to take advantage of my fellow authors.
So in order to reach relevant reviewers, I focus
on making sure Annick's titles are available and properly classified, and advertising that our titles are
on NetGalley whenever possible: in banner
ads, via social media, in
blog posts, and in person at shows and conferences.
So instead of littering my travel
blog with google
ads and diluting my content with sponsored guest posts, I simply focused
on pumping out quality content and building my audience.
The developer most likely won't make a penny either with the Game, but maybe with
ads on their
Blog if they use something like Google Advertisement or other affiliate stuff or even donations (really don't know how they handle it
so I won't speculate here).
Ok
so what I know about advertising could probably be written
on the back of a stamp and while I agree with the concepts of
Blogs - as -
Ads and the need for an authentic voice... I actually agree with Andreas in this (very particular) case.
We are
so quick as scientists, non experts, the lay public, some ill informed undergrads,
ad infinitum, to argue in this
blog, however, you as a first hand expert modeling paleoclimate and modern climate trends and obviously with a handle
on chemistry and physics, also have a vested interest in our planet and though you do the modeling for a living, I do not doubt it has helped you gain inisghts and opened up your eyes to the complexity and current to future detriments and potentialities we all face as humanity.
Yes, it's true — skeptical, legitimate climate scientists like the ones who run this site have been very frustrated by the deliberately deceitful pseudoscience, outright lies — and most recently vicious personal attacks against them — that have been cranked out for the last couple of decades by fossil fuel industry - funded frauds and cranks and given unwarranted legitimacy by the mass media, and regurgitated
ad nauseum
on blogs everywhere by Ditto - Heads who unquestioningly believe whatever drivel is spoon - fed to them by the phony «conservative» media, and call themselves «skeptics» for doing
so.
Not that this post has anything to do with the various
ad hominems tossed at the skeptics, but it seems that comparing climate skepticism to other forms of anti-science cranks and medical quacks seems to be the [not
so subtle] M.O. of one
blog over at Science
Blogs [even if they don't go out of their way to actually make that comparison, having it
on their list is enough to give one that impression]: http://scienceblogs.com/denialism/
Our income has dropped in the last 2 years,
so I recently started to include
ads on my
blog.
(P.S. — Is there any possible way to put the 2 - minute Wayfair
ad in another location
on the
blog so we don't have to endure it before getting to what we really want to see?
It has become increasingly more difficult to make a living blogging (hence the extra
ads), but maybe that means it's time for me to move
on to something else (professionally) and just
blog on the side
so I can ditch some of those
ads?
