Why Do You Charge A Fee To Review Blogs?

Obviously you just don't know how much people are charging for a blog review.

Oft times people willl pay for their blog to be reviewed because they will want to know why their blog isn't getting traffic or how does their blog look. They want to know why they don't get comments, how well placed are their adsense ads, etc.

Now there are lots of free sites on the Internet that give very helpful advice but its really up to the person who wants their blog reviewed.

I just let my work speak for itself.

Plus this is a very good lesson for those who are still new to adsense and earning money online. No matter what it is you want to do to earn money - someone is always going to put you down. It's what you do next that counts!

WTF - Both Blogs Out Of Whack!

Well it looks like my 2nd blog is under reveiw from bloggoer. It has been tagged as a

spam blog

and is currently under review!

I have sent Blogger the contact form and now have to wait for 2 business days for them to contact me.

This had also happened to this blog. This blog was locked. I sent them the email and they got back to me the next day and my first blog was unlocked.

Now it seems like I have to go through this again with my 2nd blog.

I don't know what it is but I kind of look at this as a compliment. The "robots" think my blog is a "spam blog" when clearly it is not.

Hopefully my 2nd blog will be unlocked soon.

Now if you are wondering why I have 2 blogs that are called

The Adsense Consultant

it is because my first blog - for some reason that I don't know of - got its adsense ads taken away. Now while I wait for Adsense to get back to me as to why they took the ads off of this blog, I created a 2nd blog!

So now I'm awaiting word on the status of BOTH blogs!

Does this stop my from continuing to be an Adsense Consultant? I think not! What kind of Adsense Consultant would I be if I couldn't solve my own Adsense problems!

Client - The Computer Brother's Blog - Blog Progress

The Computer Brother has become quite involved in his blog. He is adding more and more longer posts into his blog. And he is also getting more familiar with how to add entries to his blog. He has now started to post entries to his blog via email. While he gets comfortable with working on his blog on a regular basis there are still some things to do to his blog.

As I posted before The Computer Brother's blog was approved for Adsense just this past weekend and you can sss that the adsense ads are now appearing on his blog. His adsense account has been created and now he will be able to check his earnings daily.

The next thing that has to be worked on is on the blog itself. As you can see on his blog while he has long posts on the left side, the right side of his blog has a lot of empty space on it that should be filled up - but not to the point where the whole blog looks crowded.

You want to have your blog look as finely tuned as possible. By that I mean that you don't want to have too much empty spaces on your blog. Just fill it up a bit so that it looks nice and pleasant.

So that is the next thing to be worked on.

Stay tuned and watch as The Computer Brother's blog progresses.

Blog Review - The Computer Dude!

A while back I mentioned that I had my first (paying) client (besides myself of course). This client was totally new to blogs and blogging. Of course he had seen blogs all over the internet but he just thought that he would never have one. Well I changed all of that! Now The Computer Dude has a blog of his own! As you can see he is into computers and computer repair. He has told me that he doesn't seem to get much business mostly because people don't seem to want to pay anything. I have told him that I have had potential clients like that and I am sure that this is true in almost every profession there is out there!

I explained all the advantages to him about having a blog. The most important of which is that people all over the world will be able to see his blog, find out more about him and even be able to ask him questions! It also gives him a good business identity. He can put his blog address on all of his business materials including his business cards and any other promotional material that his business has.

Take a good look at his blog. I chose one of Blogger's layouts but of course the layout can be changed to almost any way that he wants. There are many different websites that have Blogger-type layouts that one can use.

The adsense ads have been added to his blog and I incorporated the adsense ads so that they blend with the color scheme of the blog.

Still in it's beginning stages, the blog lacks content and I would recommend that he (and any other bloggers) add at least 2 entries per week. Even more would be better but if you're new to blogging, adding 2 entries a week is a good starting point.

I would also like it if the blog had more content on the right side of the blog just to fill it out more. Depending on your style, interests, etc. there are widgets out there that you can add to your blog to make it look more like your blog (plus it helps to fill some of the empty spaces). Don't have your blog look too bare but don't have so much stuff on there that makes it look crowded.

I have also included a counter and a stats tracking code so that the blogger can track his traffic and see where his traffic is coming from.

Since I am giving this client the full-blown treatment, the next thing to work on is increasing his traffic.

I will post more on the progress of this client here on my blog.

I think I did a pretty good job so far, don't you?
