It’s Time To Say Goodbye To Blogrush
by Robert Dobes | March 13th, 2008
I tried and tried and tried. After months of trying to make blogrush work for me I have come to a decision it’s just a waste of valuable space on my blog.

Amazing Video – Six-Figure Blogging
You may have already heard about Yaro Starak as he is a well-known and respected blogger, blog trainer and entrepreneur. Well, I’m here to tell you that he has just published an amazing Free Video that takes you inside his own blogging business.
Using his blog (just one blog) and his hobby, Yaro brings in a steady $10,000 to $20,000 each and every month. Okay, now that’s not bad at all.
In this free video he gives out many of his secrets about the system he calls “Conversion Blogging” which combines a blog with an email list to create consistent income.
I know you’ve heard this type of stories too many times but let’s not be mistaken here. His conversion blogging system is not your usual story of creating a blog and sticking Google Ads on it - he’s taken a much more business focused approach.
If you are curious about what you can learn in the 32 minutes long video, here’s a few of the many subjects he addresses.
- Why blogging is the only Web 2.0 marketing tool you will ever need.
- Step by Step on how Yaro uses his blog to build a MASSIVE email list.
- How just a blog can turn you into the respected authority in your market.
- What techniques Yaro uses to translate his hobby into a steady income.
- How you can replicate Yaro’s techniques using just one blog and get rolling in minutes.
I saw the video and I loved it because it’s meant to be a marketing hype but rather just a very down to earth and practical presentation.
I guarantee you will enjoy this video just as I did and learn something that may change your own internet business.
Grab a drink, relax and
watch this video.
Google Keyword Tool Changes The Keyword Game
No more guesses and no more estimates. I am talking about keyword research for your website and your adwords campaigns.
Without any prior notice google began to share their long time secret numbers of their search volumes. Until now we were left with expensive services like Wordtracker or Keyword Discovery which only made it easier for us to guess the numbers. Now when Google is sharing more search data with us it is completely changing the whole game.
