Interview With Raj Dash - Writer, ProBlogger, Freelancer

Posted September 15, 2007 in Inspiration, Writing 5 Rockin' Comments »

One of the things I particularly enjoy about working online and freelancing is you get to meet so many nice people. In fact, I met Raj through blogging some time ago, and I interviewed him this week.

You can find more about Raj over at his personal blog RajDash.com, where he writes about productivity, blogging, writing, internet and a lot more. You certainly have seen his name on some really popular blogs, and I have a feeling you will see his name everywhere soon. Enjoy the interview! :)

Hello folks, today we have a article by Chad from MarketingCT. Chad says he’s an addicted entrepreneur, I believe him! :) - Jon

A List of Do-Not’s:

Do not be a specialist, do not be a generalist, do not be an everything-in-the-whole-world-needs-to-be-done-this-way-ist. Just be the entrepreneur that everyone flocks to, the leader that people want to follow, and then let everyone who does something good, do that thing good.

Top 100 List Of Make Money at Home Blogs

Posted September 10, 2007 in Business, Tools/Resources 7 Rockin' Comments »

I recently found a list of Top 100 money-making blogs online and the list is somewhat interesting. You’ve likely heard of some of these blogs. If you are a freelancer working from home then some of them are essential reading. I highly recommend that you subscribe to their news feeds. Take a look at the Top 10 on the list:

• ProBlogger (essential reading, especially if you blog)
• John Chow (good to read for his insights even though he bills himself as a personal blogger, not a make money blogger)
• Shoemoney (I’m not as familiar with Shoemoney, but it looks like a decent goto source)
• Dosh Dosh (a extremely useful resource)
• Daily Blog Tips (I’m not familiar, but Jon is)
• Entreprenuers Journey (Not familiar, but Jon is)
• Andy Beard - Niche Marketing (good insights)
• eMoms at Home (excellent resource for you ladies out there)
• Nate Whitehill (another useful resource)
• NetBusinessBlog (not familiar, but Jon is)

Carl Ocab, a 14-year-old Web guru, was in the top 10 until he dropped down to No. 11 this morning. [Click here to read more →]
