A Blogger's Dream Come True

From time to time I come across hot new blogging products that I really should be telling my readers about. I admit I've been lax in that regard, but this should make up for it.

I've been using a new blogging platform since last October, and really can't say enough about it. But now Blogini 2.0 has just been released, and is better than ever.

More robust than Blogger, yet simpler to use than Wordpress, and packed with features that none of the others give you. But frankly, I would *not* buy this just for the blogging platform.

What makes it kick butt is the member's only forum, the interlinking with other blogs, the "adsense ready" and themed templates (nearly 100 in all) and many, many other features.

You can get a basic account if you are just starting out, or go for a higher level package and get additional features, such as having a niche blog built for you every month, specialized automated interlinking, and free access to the "Affiliate Help Zone" membership site.

I thought this was a bargain when it first came out, but with version 2.0, Ken has outdone himself. Way more features, easier than ever to use, and lower than ever pricing - this may be the bargain of the year.

If you're already a blogger like I am, then this is a chance to really put things on steroids, with your own network of strategically interlinked blogs, on different IP addresses and servers.

If you're new to blogging, this is *the* way to learn about it, and earn in the process. The platform is very simple to use, many of the templates are "adsense ready", and the forum is a *tremendous* source of information, hints, tips, tricks, and social networking.

Check out Blogini 2.0 before the "fast mover" bonuses are gone.

Happy Blogging!

Backlinks to Your Website Using Blogs

If you are interested in blogs, then you know of the benefits is the number of backlinks you can get to your website using blogs. Some you can create yourself, if you use an off-site blog. But now there is a new service that will get them for you, in addition to being the easiest to use blogging platform that I've come across.

Ken Fox has created what he calls a "global blog network". When you join his membership site, you get 10 blogs of your own choosing, that will in part be promoted for you by the network. And of course you can also find link exchanges in the members-only forum that comes with this.

But you get *tons* more than just a bunch of blogs. There are extensive training videos and free ebooks on hand to help you with every aspect of your blogging. You get to submit 4 URLs (any of your other sites, affiliate links, whatever you want) for automatic promotion on the blog network. And each month you get a potential "authority site" built for you, on the them of your choosing.

You can submit your affiliate IDs, your adsense ID, and request to have data feeds included on the site that they build for you on your own domain. But not only do they build the site - they continue to maintain and promote it as long as you are a member. And if you ever leave the membership, you get to take your site(s) with you.

But as long as you remain a member, they continue to promote not only the sites they have built for you, but also the blogs you've created on the system *and* the additional 4 URLs you are allowed to submit every month for free promotion on the network.

I can't begin to do justice to this - visit the site and see for yourself how easy it is to build or promote a website using blogs.

Happy Blogging!
