Hello folks my name is Paul Guzman and I’ve been online since about 2002. What is this blog about? It’s about helping you promote, market and profit with your own blog – simple, straight forward and no false promises.
Blogging News for the Average Marketer
Have you ever wondered why your blog is not getting the attention it deserves? What type of content would keep your potential clients or visitors enthralled with your content?
“It is a fact that 98% of online business blogs fail”
We keep away from the bull that seems to infiltrate the entire Internet Blogging world. There is so much to find out and we strive to keep you informed of the latest happenings in the IM world.
We are the layman’s version of the intellectual online marketer. The average Joe, the mom and pop online business etc…
Humor is a big part of my life and I do my best to add some of it here on this blog. I make fun of myself and in turn expect others to do the same.
I love simplicity…the simpler the better. The online world is already complicated enough and we strive to make things easy, simple and to the point.
Internet Marketing
Find out how Internet Marketing really works without the bull that most marketers feed you. IM changes on a daily basis and can be hard for the average online person to keep up the latest trends, happenings, and the hogwash that we read and hear about.
I get numerous emails from Internet marketing guru’s who sound more like shady used car salesmen than a professional marketer. I bet you do too, this blog will have informative and sensible marketing techniques that are used by myself and other successful online business professionals. I keep away from hype, tricks or false advertising.
I will not try to make you a millionaire in a couple of days, months or years. I do not have a new ninja program that will skyrocket your visitors overnight nor will I tell you where to find a “Cash Cow”. Nor will I tell you how to to squeeze, crush or annihilate your competitor.
We want to help you solve problems that are associated with starting an online business whether it is a blog, website or marketing in any way shape or form.
Advertising online today
Advertising online is a big market but it seems to have succumb to some pretty shady tactics. Pop ups, opt-ins and offers that have no relevance to what I am looking for seem to creep into my monitor no matter how many filters I have on.
Free advertising works if you know how and what to do. But for millions of newbie bloggers it can become time consuming and a big waste of time. One way to get free exposure is to start your very own blog. Starting a Blog for Newbies.
Paying to get your services or products seen by millions is a viable way to profit online. Google adwords advertising medium is a great way to place your advertisement where people will see them.

Social Media – How does it work?
Yea, I hear you. Social media is a great place to converse with your friends, family and other business partners but how does it work for you? It is frustrating trying to figure out how this new medium will help my online or offline business.
More informative marketing stuff coming very soon. Got questions? Fill out the form below. I might have the answer?

With having so much content do you ever run into any problems of Plagiarism or copyright violation?
My site has a lot of exclusive content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my authorization. Do you know any solutions to help reduce content from being ripped off? I’d genuinely appreciate it.
First you have to find who is copying your content. Then you have to contact that person and ask to remove the copied content. Of course this will not be easy. If this person does not comply it is up to you to continue with legal action. Here is a blog that I found that outlines and goes into further detail on this subject.

Hi Paul,
I agree, most people just write BS, talk BS and do not even do what they preach in this niche. However, there are good guys who make a good living and are willing to teach people how to do the same. I like to think I am one of those, and it’s nice to see others trying to do the same. Keep up the good work with your blog here.
Best

Thanks John I respect your comments. I think Internet Marketing is an over-saturated niche and it has succumb to some pretty low tactics. Your blog is not one of those in the “Shady Spot”.
Paul
Hi there! I realize this is somewhat off-topic however I needed to ask.
Does building a well-established blog like yours take a large
amount of work? I am brand new to operating a blog however I do write in my diary daily.
I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my experience and views online. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for new aspiring blog owners. Appreciate it!
Yea, it takes a lot of work plus research, reading other blogs, and keeping in touch with some of the better professional marketing bloggers in the marketing niche or any niche.
My advice to you is to write quality content, do not write for the search engines. Research your marketing niche. Do not auto submit anything.
Do everything by hand and become actively involved in whatever it is you are trying to accomplish. Stop looking for a short cut or some push button automatic money making dream. It is not going to happen.
1. Research
2. Read
3. Read some more
4. Follow those who share your interest
5. Look deep into your soul and find out what it is that you really want to accomplish
6. Continue reading and research your niche as much as possible
Getting rich overnight will not happen…but in the long run it might happen if you follow those things I just wrote above.
You have a great website, and I really enjoyed reading this post. Well I just started blogging in November. I have tried to join about 13 different sites where you can make money from blogging. Up to this day I haven’t made a dime, so I had given up on trying to make money on blogging for now. I think the key to making money is to have lots of traffic and an interesting website people want to read. Right now, my traffic is very low still. If you have a small amount of traffic there won’t be much success on that. So I assume the answer is to be patience and to give it time for the traffic to grow before expecting to make any money,and not to rush. And the way to gain traffic is something I have to work on for now. And I don’t expect this to happen overnight. For now, I just enjoy writing articles for my blog and making the videos for it also. Happy blogging!

Susan,
I have found through 8 years of online marketing that you have to have a diversified portfolio, much like investing, if you want to make money online don’t put all your eggs in one basket. I, myself, do a little blogging, a little mlm, a little affiliate marketing, and so on.
My MLM is far my best earner. I do this full time and work from an office I set up at home. I have 52 blogs, each promoting a different part of my business. Stone Evans is a guy who I follow. He’s been around forever.

Thanks for dropping by. You are right about making money online and having a diversified portfolio. I too have several sites and all of them have a different way of producing income.
However, I am not into MLM as my research indicates people find a negative connotation associated with it. Which makes it difficult (not impossible ) for recruiting purposes.
BTW…how do you find the time to manage and maintain 52 blogs. Do you have a large staff? Sure would like to know how you do it?
