Review Place recently granted a five-star rating to Blogger Generator, a computer program that automates the creation of blogs with Blogger, enabling users to produce blogs in mass quantities and thereby capitalize on AdSense profits.

“Blogger Generator helps customers earn a worthy income from AdSense without it claiming all of their time,” said Joseph Tierney, a spokesperson for Blogger Generator. “We’re so pleased that Review Place has chosen to recognize the benefits our software with their top rating.”

Blogger Generator allows users to capitalize on AdSense revenue in a major way. Whereas it takes a huge time commitment to manually creating the number of blogs needed to optimize AdSense earnings, Blogger Generator automates the process, rapidly creating blogs and instantly adding additional income. Blogger Generator allows users to create custom templates for blogs that look like authentic websites - and don’t have the Blogger banner across the top. The software also includes 44 unique templates that can be randomly selected for each blog. Blogger Generator sets blogs up as private blogs that cannot be accessed from the Blogger site, while adding code to the template to ensure that the blogs and their individual pages are rapidly indexed by the search engines. The software also automatically chooses a domain and locates copyright-free, search engine optimized content for each blog based on relevant keyword lists. Blogger Generator takes care of the creation of each blog from beginning to end, optimizing the user’s AdSense income with only a minimum amount of work.

“Blogger Generator is a necessary tool for anyone looking to earn a decent amount of money via internet ad revenue,” said Andy West, the Press Relations representative for Review Place. “With all of the custom, time-saving features the software offers, it’s no wonder our reviewers gave Blogger Generator a five-star rating.”

Robert asked:


a number of things that should be taken into consideration when you are choosing a platform for your blog. Here we will cover some of the issues that must be considered when you are making this decision. Some of the questions that arise when starting a blog are whether or not to choose a free blogging service or to use one that is hosted on your own domain. Users want to know which direction will best suit their needs. Should you start on a free blogging platform and then change to a hosted domain later as your blog expands? There is no one good answer for many of these questions. A great many of these decisions will be arrived at according to the goals that you have for your blog. So, to find the best answer to these questions, it is important to ask yourself some questions first. For many people the decision to start a blog is a big decision. With that in mind, you should expect to take some time with the decision on your platform. There are a number of platforms out there for you to choose from and that can complicate the situation. Of course, you are always free to upgrade later, but there are some important considerations with that decision as well. If you make a good decision now, you may avoid some of the costs associated as well as the impact on your search engine traffic when you make a transfer. The first question that you should ask yourself is what your goals are regarding your blog. If you are just starting out, to fully answer this question, determine if you plan to be blogging for the long term. Also, ask yourself what the purpose of your blog will be and whether there are any professional aspirations with your blog. Many people blog as a hobby and that is perfectly fine, but your platform choice will be impacted by the answer to this question. Also, try to decide whether you will be putting advertisements on your blog in the future. These are a good starting point for your blog decisions. There are some platforms on the market that will be great for a hobby blogger, but not well suited to a professional application of the blog. There are also some blogging platforms that will not allow you to monetize your blog. This will impact your decision a great deal. Make sure that you check out the platform thoroughly before you make any decision about your professional blog. If your ultimate goal is to make money with your blog, you will want to be careful that you don’t select a blogging platform that will inhibit your ability to run ads on the blog. Your budget is another important consideration when you are choosing your blogging platform. With all of the platforms that are available to you on the market, there are some that are free and others that are more costly. Some of the things that you might have to pay for with your blog are the hosting, your domain name, and the blog platform itself. Different blog platforms will have different pricing arrangements. Determine how much you will want to spend on these items when you are choosing your blog platform. Consider your cost to design the blog as well. You will most likely get a free template with your platform, but if you want something different, you will have to pay for it or design it yourself. Also, there are some tools that you might have to pay for to help your blogging. You might not know what you need in the beginning, but a little research will show you what you will need in the future. Consider how technological oriented you are. There are some blog platforms that are very friendly to the non technical blogger and others will require you to have some technological knowledge to use. If you have never set up a blog or website before, you might have to hire someone to help you or learn the basics on your own. When making the decision between a standalone blogging platform or a hosted one, the above questions should get you started thinking about your options. When choosing a hosted blog platform, you will find it much easier and cheaper to get started. Many of the popular hosted blog platforms are free to use. A hosted blog platform is one that is provided by a company that hosts your blog on their domain. Some pros to this type of platform are that it is easy to set up, free or cheap, simple to operate, and they are indexed in the search engines fairly quickly. Some of the cons for this platform are that they are limited in the design choices, less control and your URL is not your own. With a standalone blog platform you will be hosting your blog under your own domain. Of course, there are some pros and cons of using this blog platform as well. The pros for using a standalone blog platform are a more control over the design of your blog. You will be able to use your own skills to design the blog that you want and not be limited by templates and design limitations in a hosted blog platform. The blogs are more adaptable and you will be able to take advantage of the plug-ins that are developed all the time. The cons for using a standalone platform are the difficulty in setting it up, the cost and the complication of updating your blog.

Gary Neame asked:


ew days later you received a few hits when you told your sister, father, girlfriend and

best friend about your new blog but that’’s about as far you went when it comes to finding readers.

Here are the top 10 techniques new bloggers can use to find readers.

These are tips specifically for new bloggers, those people who have next-to-no audience at the

moment and want to get the ball rolling.

It helps if you work on this list from top to bottom as each technique builds on the previous step to

help you create momentum. Eventually once you establish enough momentum you gain what is

called “traction”, which is a large enough audience base (about 500 readers a day is good) that you

no longer have to work too hard on finding new readers.

Instead your current loyal readers do the work for you through word of mouth.Top 10 Tips

10. Write at least five major “pillar” articles. A pillar article is usually a tutorial style article aimed to

teach your audience something. Generally they are longer than 500 words and have lots of very

practical tips or advice.

This article you are currently reading could be considered a pillar article since it is very practical

and a good “how-to” lesson. This style of article has long term appeal, stays current

(it isn”t news or time dependent) and offers real value and insight.

The more pillars you have on your blog the better.

9. Write one new blog post per day minimum.

Not every post has to be a pillar, but you should work on getting those five pillars done at the same

time as you keep your blog fresh with a daily news or short article style post. The important thing

here is to demonstrate to first time visitors that your blog is updated all the time so they feel that if

they come back tomorrow they will likely find something new.

This causes them to bookmark your site or subscribe to your blog feed. You don”t have to produce

one post per day all the time but it is important you do when your blog is brand new.

Once you get traction you still need to keep the fresh content coming but your loyal audience will

be more forgiving if you slow down to a few per week instead. The first few months are critical so

the more content you can produce at this time the better.

8. Use a proper domain name. If you are serious about blogging be serious about what you call

your blog. In order for people to easily spread the word about your blog you need an easily

rememberable domain name.

People often talk about blogs they like when they are speaking to friends in the real world

(that’’s the offline world, you remember that place right?) so you need to make it easy for them

to spread the word and pass on your URL.

Try and get a .com if you can and focus on small easy to remember domains rather than worry

about having the correct keywords (of course if you can get great keywords and easy to remember

then you”ve done a good job!).

7. Start commenting on other blogs. Once you have your pillar articles and your daily fresh smaller

articles your blog is ready to be exposed to the world. One of the best ways to find the right type of

reader for your blog is to comment on other people’’s blogs.

You should aim to comment on blogs focused on a similar niche topic to yours since the readers

there will be more likely to be interested in your blog.

Most blog commenting systems allow you to have your name/title linked to your blog when you

leave a comment. This is how people find your blog. If you are a prolific commentor and always

have something valuable to say then people will be interested to read more of your work and

hence click through to visit your blog.

6. Trackback and link to other blogs in your blog posts. A trackback is sort of like a blog

conversation. When you write a new article to your blog and it links or references another

blogger’’s article you can do a trackback to their entry.

What this does is leave a truncated summary of your blog post on their blog entry - it’’s sort of like

your blog telling someone else’’s blog that you wrote an article mentioning them. Trackbacks

often appear like comments.

This is a good technique because like leaving comments a trackback leaves a link from another

blog back to yours for readers to follow, but it also does something very important - it gets the

attention of another blogger.

The other blogger will come and read your post eager to see what you wrote about them. They

may then become a loyal reader of yours or at least monitor you and if you are lucky some time

down the road they may do a post linking to your blog bringing in more new readers.

5. Encourage comments on your own blog. One of the most powerful ways to convince someone

to become a loyal reader is to show there are other loyal readers already following your work. If

they see people commenting on your blog then they infer that your content must be good since

you have readers so they should stick around and see what all the fuss is about.

To encourage comments you can simply pose a question in a blog post. Be sure to always

respond to comments as well so you can keep the conversation going.

4. Submit your latest pillar article to a blog carnival. A blog carnival is a post in a blog that

summarizes a collection of articles from many different blogs on a specific topic. The idea is to

collect some of the best content on a topic in a given week. Often many other blogs link back to

a carnival host and as such the people that have articles featured in the carnival enjoy a spike

in new readers.

To find the right blog carnival for your blog, do a search at http://blogcarnival.com/.

3. Submit your blog to blogtopsites.com. To be honest this tip is not going to bring in a flood of

new readers but it’’s so easy to do and only takes five minutes so it’’s worth the effort. Go to Blog

Top Sites, find the appropriate category for your blog and submit it.

You have to copy and paste a couple of lines of code on to your blog so you can rank and then sit

back and watch the traffic come in. You will probably only get 1-10 incoming readers per day with

this technique but over time it can build up as you climb the rankings. It all helps!

2. Submit your articles to ArticleBase.com. This is another tip that doesn”t bring in hundreds of

new visitors immediately (although it can if you keep doing it) but it’’s worthwhile because you

simply leverage what you already have - your pillar articles. Once a week or so take one of your

pillar articles and submit it to ArticleBase.com.

Your article then becomes available to other people who can republish your article on their

website or in their newsletter. How you benefit is through what is called your “Resource

Box”.

You create your own resource box which is like a signature file where you include one to two

sentences and link back to your website (or blog in this case). Anyone who publishes your

article has to include your resource box so you get incoming links. If someone with a large

newsletter publishes your article you can get a lot of new readers at once.

1. Write more pillar articles. Everything you do above will help you to find blog readers however all

of the techniques I”ve listed only work when you have strong pillars in place. Without them if you

do everything above you may bring in readers but they won”t stay or bother to come back.

Aim for one solid pillar article per week and by the end of the year you will have a database of

over 50 fantastic feature articles that will work hard for you to bring in more and more readers.

Warmly,

Gary Neame
