I just had someone ask me how to make an image float left in a post. It’s a very common question so I’ve quickly pulled together some images to step you through the process in WordPress.
There are seven images for you to follow, click on each image to view. I hope you find this a helpful tool to keep your blog posts looking neat and tidy with your images floating next to your text. Thank you Lizzie for the inspiration provided for me to make this post.

If you have multiple websites with Adsense ads on them you probably have thought about tracking Adsense earnings. There are a number of ways to track and analyse Adsense from free options that Google offer through to paid programs.
There is a ton of information about tracking Adsense in terms of which ad blocks are getting clicked on the most and from which of your sites. There is a lot of analysis you can do if you really want to get into Adsense in a big way. Now some people make a huge amount of money out of Adsense and it really is a workable business model. But I caution you to not put all your eggs in the Adsense basket. Read more »

When you first start out with the idea of building a list of subscribers and managing the process all yourself it can be quite manageable. However if your list is growing and or you’re creating more opt-in forms for a number of offers then you could start to find it overwhelming not to mention very time consuming manually sending out follow up emails to your list. So is it time you stopped fiddling with this and instead look into the many email marketing services on offer? Read more »
I’ve been discussing how you can set up a contact form to collect subscriber emails to build a list. Then I talked about how to write ebook content quickly and easily that you could give away to your subscribers. But now what?

Giving away a mini ebook or report is a proven method to build a list. It can seem quite daunting to some people to sit down and write an ebook especially if it isn’t their first language and or they just aren’t confident in their writing skills and think it will take them all year to get it done. If that sounds like you then you can relax as I’m going to share with you how to write ebooks quickly and easily. Read more »
If you’re trying to build a list of subscribers then you’ll no doubt have realised that simply giving them a place to put in their name and email address isn’t going to drive a ton of sign ups. You need to of course give the subscriber something in return for their email address. There’s nothing to say you must give something away for free but I would strongly recommend it. Who doesn’t like getting something for free? A freebie for a simple exchange of an email address can be very enticing for your readers; sounds easy doesn’t it? Well don’t think that just ’cause your report or newsletter etc is free that people will sign up. Read more »

You might have heard the saying ‘the money is in the list!’ when it comes to making money online. Well there is a great deal of truth in that, many successful marketers make a sizable percentage, if not all, of their income from their list of subscribers. Sometimes when you’re just starting out online it can be a little daunting to set up a basic contact form where you can manually take subscriber details and or just give your visitors a place to contact you. There’s no need to worry about how to ‘code’ a form as there is a brilliant contact form plugin for Wordpress and I distinctly remember using this when I first started out online. Read more »

Does article marketing only generate rubbish traffic though, after all it is free? Read more »
