Today is that day, the one that only comes around once every four years, so I thought it would be appropriate to mark the day with another update from my end for those of you out there who have been waiting for one.

Already in my previous post I mentioned some of my plans for this year. As of right now, there have been some small changes. The project I had originally planned to get started as soon as possible has been scratched, and I am now working on something completely different instead.

I have more or …

As some of you might have noticed, we just made the leap into a brand new year, and what better time could there be to grab a clean state and give yourself a fresh start? For me (especially after the long, undesired break) it seems like the perfect chance to reach out and try and grab some of the many opportunities the internet still holds.

I do feel like somewhat of a sellout writing this post, but the title doesn’t lie. Bloggst has indeed been sold. When I started the auction I really didn’t expect the kind of attention the auction got, and I certainly didn’t expect it to receive four BIN within the first 24 hours.

So why did I end up with the …

Well today is a day of joy for me, as I can finally say that I’ve made the very first sponsorship deal for Bloggst.

In my experience, while this method initially requires more effort from my end, it has far more potential in terms of profits. It also helps you expand your network of contacts, which I have found to be one of the most crucial …

Almost a week since my last blog post. No excuses really, but stuff and other stuff are interfering with my online stuff. I’ll admit, it would be great to be in a position where I could put all my efforts into my online projects, and while I obviously do believe it would help me be “successful”much quicker, I’m really quite happy with the way things are right now.
