2008-03-16 Sunday Links Folder
Posted March 16, 2008 in Uncategorized
Hi everyone, I hope you’re having a great week-end and are taking some time off to relax and recharge. I thought I’d write a new ‘links folder‘ post because it’s been 3 weeks since the last one. :)
Cory Miller, who runs the Premium WordPress themes store, iThemes, is giving a 25% discount on all WP theme purchases, just enter the discount code ‘FREELANCE‘ and voila! (the prices are already very reasonable anyway). I know many of you are bloggers, so if you’re looking for a cool WordPress theme, check it out. Maybe you already knew this but I thought I’d make it more ‘official‘.
Now the list:

Matt Jones from BloggingFingers wrote a great ebook on the topic of blog monetization. It’s only 16 pages, but it’s packed with very useful information and insights, and it’s free! So if you are a blogger I’m sure you’ll find it interesting, go grab a copy!
To stick with the WordPress and blogging stuff, SP, who runs WPDesigner, one of the leading blogs about WordPress (PR7, 70k uniques per month) has put his site up on SitePoint. The BIN price is $65k, and it looks like someone wants to buy it. Congrats SP, you did an awesome job with WPDesigner. Good luck with your future projects.
Also, in case you have a Twitter account, why not follow me? I know this is totally counter-productive, but so far for me it’s proven to be a nice networking tool. Just don’t abuse it. :)
That’s it for this week folks! Have a great week-end!
Jon
