I'm Gonna Be Rich!

I'm sitting in a workshop on how to monetize your blog. Advice I received thus far is to use key words that will lead lots of people to my site (e.g. - "Jewish pussy"), then cleverly blend paid links and ads into my site. If I follow this advice, I will become a wealthy blogger and a fine pillar of the porn industry. How exciting is that?

On top of that, some people who sat at my table for lunch tried to convince me to do affiliate selling. That means when I complain about Brazilian waxes, readers will be able to click on ads for home snatch wax kits or pubic hair dye! Isn't that awesome!

The downside is that the blog pimping session led me to realize that Blogger templates are motherfucking (see? I'm using a key word! If only I had a paid link to people who fuck mothers, I'd make $1!) impossible to customize, so unless I switch to another format, we'll more or less be keeping the pepto pink. So it goes.

Given my options, I will leave the moneymaking to Husband. He likes that shit anyway. My life is definitely too hairy for all that. Ha ha.

  1. I looked into the advertising malarky a while back. Seemed much too much like hard work.
    Glad you enjoyed the conference though.
    Cheers

  2. . . . and I was sitting behind you during that session watching you madly live blog. Was completely distracted by the name of your blog, though not enough to realize that a 16-year-old (or younger?) was telling me to subtly work ads that don't look like ads into my blog. Heck no. Anyway, I noted the blog name, here I am, and you have the best live blog post yet. Hope you had a great conference and great trip back!
