Find a New Theme
The Internet is a highly visual place. That being the case, it’s a good thing for every blog to get a virtual new can of paint at least once a year. This can mean changing up or decluttering the sidebar, it could mean doing more features or series, or it could mean either finding a [...]
Whoa—Time to Cut Back on the Plugins!
The other day I was noticing that my blog was running ridiculously slow when I was in the admin panel. This was with having Google Gears turned on. There are three things that go toward the speed of your blog—or any computer for that matter. The number of processors, the amount of memory, and the [...]
Turbo-Charge WordPress over Dial-Up
WordPress 2.6 introduced an exciting new feature, especially for those who blog over Dial-Up Modem. They have added support for Google Gears to the platform, so that once you enable it, many of the admin panel pages will react much quicker than they did in previous versions of WordPress.
How Do You Find Good Hosting
I’m really blessed. One of my college friends spent some time working for a hosting company so when the time came to move this blog off of Bravenet I had someone to ask about hosting and where we should go. How do you go about finding good hosting? Well, there’s a number of things to [...]
New York State’s New Tax Law
New York State’s recent action to make sure that they get their tax dollars has had a chilling effect across all affiliates from that region. In case you haven’t heard, NYS has, for some time, been suspicious of people buying and selling stuff online. The rule was that those companies that had physical offices in [...]
5 Plugins Every WordPress Install Should Have
Every single time I set up a WordPress blog (and I’ve set up quite a few now) there are a few plugins that I find myself wanting or needing every single time. It’s to the point that if I’m helping someone out on their blog and I go look at their plugins, I immediately wonder [...]
Affiliate Ad Manager Update
Well, there’s been a few tweaks, but so far the Ad Manager seems to be running smoothly. As is always the case, bad data in means bad data out. I had a few cases of some ads not showing images because Performics had urls with two “.”s before the com– “xxx..com/xxx”. After I fixed these [...]
Would it Make a Difference?
So I got to wondering the other day while I was mowing the lawn… What is the effect of a high ranking blogger on a blog? More specifically, if a more popular blogger were to comment on a rather unknown blog, what effect would they have on that blog? Could I get someone like Darren [...]
It’s That Time Again
Time for lots of links. I’m running a bit behind, trying to keep up all these blogs as well as write interesting posts, and keep up with the comments. So, this week I’m going to do some rapid fire links posts, each one a given topic from my delicious account. Hope you enjoy!
New Affiliate Ads
I’m toying with something new here at MInTheGap. Some of you may already have noticed what it is, but I thought I’d explain myself. Up on the top right you will now see a random set of 4 ads. This is different from the Square ad that occupies that space if you’re a first time [...]
Determine Whether You Will Run Advertising
Something you’ll want to think about, if you’re new to blogging or have been doing it for a while, is what you want to get out of blogging. There are many different things that can be rewards for running a good blog: Recognition: Yeah! I got my first comment that wasn’t mine! Friends: Where did [...]
Text Link Ads – Promote My Site, Please!
Text Link Ads (and their accompanying banner ads) carry a similar problem to Pay Per Post, but they also pay better than most of the other money making systems. The problem that’s similar to PPP is that people are trying to get links on your site so that they can get “Google Juice” and reach [...]
Google AdSense – Click Here
When I first started blogging on Brave Journal close to four years ago the only ads that you saw were the (sometimes blinking) ads that were placed there by Brave Journal themselves– on the top of the blog. They were irritating, and they did nothing for the blog itself, and so when I first moved [...]
Yahoo Shortcuts
If you’re like me then you like to spruce up your posts with images, links and any tool that you can find that will help you do this is– and do it easily– is something that you’d want to try out. Well, one of the great things about WordPress is that there are always people [...]

Threaded Comments
One of the things that makes commenting difficult on blogs (for me at least) is trying to keep a line of discussion going. Since there is no hierarchy to comments, you’re not always able to keep track of what’s being said to whom. This is one of the things that forums do a much better [...]
