extra chewing gum SuperPost Sunday Weekly Roundup #20Hello My Lovelies,

Wow, it’s week 20 of SuperPost Sunday already :D. Imagine that!

Bugs in Blogadise

So out of curiosity, has anyone else been having a bit of trouble with nasty bugs since they upgraded to WordPress 3.1? Cause I’m about to break the computer if I don’t figure out how to swat those little buggers very soon.

I’ve always referred to myself as being somewhat ATTAC – all things techie with abbreviations challenged – so if you’re having similar troubles and are a techie genie whose figured out how to fix these, then by all means – I’m all ears!

I can’t seem to link to any of my categories or else you would have seen one on my SuperPost Sunday up there ^^^. And I’m sure you’ve noticed that my picture is missing in the About Me widget on the right >>> and in my WTH tab. I know there are quite a few other things as well, but I don’t want this lovely Sunday to be ruined with a rant so I’ll stop here.

Mark’s Tao

On a happier note, I just received Mark Schaefer’s book, “The Tao of Twitter – Changing your life and business 140 characters at a time“ (not an affiliate – simply an Amazon link to make your life easier), and let me tell you – it’s loaded with helpful tips and stories making it addictive, educational and human.

I’ll most definitely be telling you a little more about it soon but until then, I suggest your read Brankica’s excellent review over at Live Your Love or that of our favorite expat, John Falchetto, over at Expat Life Coach.

Alright, I think that’s enough talking for now.

Time for Some Goodies

“Without further ado and blah blah,” here are this Sunday’s rockin’ SuperPosts on all things Social Media, Blogging Tips, SEO, Internet Marketing, Traffic Building, Online Money Making Tools and more.

Social Media

Most of us have a love-hate relationship with Twitter. Some of us (or them, I should say) are entirely addicted to it, and the rest of us use it because we feel like we grew an extra limb and, even though we don’t really need it…

My friend and business partner Troy wrote a great piece yesterday about whether or not technology has improved or hindered our communication skills. It’s a timely topic with some awesome comments, and well worth the read…

When you were only following 10 people, Twitter seemed so peaceful. It was so quiet that you could hear the sound of a penny when it falls on the ground. Then when you started following back everyone or started to follow…

About a week ago, I worked my ass off. To be more precise: I worked my ass off pimping my Facebook fan page: After reading endless hours about how important fan pages are, and how much they can do for your online presence…

Soon after Wells Fargo bank launched its presence on Twitter, a staffer noticed a tweet from a customer who couldn’t find an ATM at the Las Vegas airport. “We simply said, ‘Hey, this is Wells Fargo. Here’s a list of ATMs in the…

I’m really grateful to Are for he had posted a great question here. I haven’t actually wrote a detailed post about photo arrangements for either New Profile or the upgraded facebook page…

As a website owner and marketer, I’m totally fascinated by the workings of Google, SEO, and general traffic generation. I’m sure we all are. But there’s one thing I often worry about–falling behind. Of course, as online…

Blogging Tips

Is finding time to blog something you struggle with? A number of people have asked me how they can find time to blog on top of everything else that I have going on. Writing content is vitally important for your blog. It is your source…

Last week I had the opportunity to chat with a local journalism student. She was working on a project and was tasked with talking to a business professional on the topic of blogs and content marketing. Troy must be fresh out of real pros…

Pretty strong title, huh? If you hadn’t noticed, I like ‘em that way…but I mean every word. Here’s why…When I woke up this morning, I had no earthly intention of writing this article, but while over at Blogging Bookshelf today…

You know who they are.  You’ve seen their trail of venom all over the interwebs.  I’m sure you have one that bothers you at least a couple times a month.  If you don’t, you’re lucky.  But, if you blog long enough, you will get one…

Traffic Generation

When I started thinking about writing an article for this contest in regards to traffic generation, I thought, “man…what else can we say about it already?!” We have read article after article about how to drive traffic to our blogs…

Internet Marketing

Here’s 10…how many do you have? Here we go… 1. Selfish content marketing.  People don’t care about you, they care about themselves.  Create content that solves customers’ pain points. Stop talking about yourself…

Did you know that one of the reasons for the success of Star Wars is that it follows the ultimate mythological story template? That’s why it connected so easily with people, because deep down, we all know this story…

I have almost given up counting the number of times people have emailed or asked me the question: How do you get so many comments on your blog? In fact one of my marketing friends jokes that all I have to do is say…

Online Money Making Tools

In the beginning, when most bloggers first install WordPress, they are filled with a sense of excitement and hope. They rarely envision themselves a year, two years, or even three years later, still struggling to generate a steady…

MishMash

How do you feel about your competitors? There are generally 2 approaches people use, in order to rise above the competition and develop their business. 1. They stay just as they are and focus on trying to ruin their competitors...

It’s funny how life takes us in ways often unexpected. Such was the case for me after I graduated from West Virginia University in 2001. I had taken a job in Northern Virginia and within a few weeks of working at my ‘dream job’…

Have you heard the saying “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know” that matters? In business, this saying holds true… Leveraging relationships that matter is the most powerful way to get things done, and in some…

I’m a ‘take things as they come’ person so I usually don’t reflect much. But whenAbubakar Jamil asked me to write about thelessons I’ve learned in life for a project of his, I was super interested and immediately agreed…

This year’s big Oscar winner was The King’s Speech, taking awards for Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Direction, and Best Writing (original screenplay). When I saw the movie a few weeks ago, I was certainly inspired…

I hate flying. So when it was suggested that I take a much needed visit to Portland, Oregon to visit family over the Thanksgiving holiday, I was forced to surrender to my fears. Namely, that of stepping onto an airplane & flying 30,000…
