A lot of People ask me ‘ Dog why do you spend so much time submitting other peoples articles to Digg ‘ . My response is simple its all about the profile views. Sure I submit articles from this blog to Digg but there are times I am having writers block and feel like adding something to Digg. Basically everywhere you look on the net there is good quality just waiting to be discovered.

Some places where I like to look for quality is

• The Major news sites Fox News, CNN, Google News, BBC and so on.
• Various tech review sites CNET , ZDNET , TMCNET you can always find a good catch
• There are of course other peoples Blog’s as well.
• My very favorite sites are Youtube and Break.com. I love posting and watching videos they are what most people crave during a busy work day

Now back to the making money part. Its simple If the article is pointing back to your site or blog it will expose the user to your affiliate ads or PPC ads. Not to mention the product that you are selling.

If you are linking to other sites people on Digg will check out your profile once your story has become popular and made it to the front page. If you were smart enough to add your website links to your Digg profile you can get traffic that way thus people seeing your product and Affiliate ads.

I am going to refer once again to a successful article that I wrote last week on getting your stories popular on Digg. Click here to read it

On a side note I am really starting to see a good deal of traffic coming from Reddit. I have recently started to do more research on Reddit and how it works and will post my findings soon.

The other day I started searching for a wordpress plug-in that can track your online visitors and give reports. I search Google and came across a plug-in that does exactly what I was looking for. It has a corny name but it is a great program. Its called

‘ WassUp’

Probably after that lovely campaign that Budweiser ran a few years back. Basically this program is a snap to setup and don’t require any editing so its basically idiot proof!.

Features

The first and probably best feature of this plug-in is Spy. It tells you everything that you need to know about the current logged in Visitor. Such as the IP address, spider, the operating system, time they logged on and more. It also creates reports to organise visitors and information about your visitors with stats such as those that I listed below.

• ip / hostname
• referer
• spider
• search engines used (includes Google Images)
• keywords
• SERP (search engine result page)
• operating system / language / browser
• pages viewed (chronologically and per user session)
• complete user agent
• name of user logged in
• name of comment’s author-top ten charts with aggregate data (top queries, requests, os, browsers)

All of these features can be accessed VIA the dashboard in your admin menu.

There are also customisable options included which are

• Refreshing minutes
• Users levels required
• Enable/Disable recording
• Record or not users logged in
• Record or not spiders and bots
• Record or not exploit attempts (libwww-perl user agent)
• IPs to exclude from recording
• Alert admin for table growth
• Empty/Reset the database table
• Export current table in SQL format
• Automatically deletes records older then selected period (day, week, months, year)
• Manually deletes records older then selected period (day, week, months, year)

Finally to put the icing on the cake one more sweet option is that there is a widget involved. You can add a widget to your sidebar which will show your visitors in real-time how many people are on your blog. The widget is in AJAX of course.

The latest version 1.3.5 had just come out this week. This plug-in can be snatched by visiting the download site here

I have decided to put Xtremedirectory.com up for sale. I came to this conclusion simply because I want to put more and 100% of my time into Astawerks.com and Astawerks.net. Xtreme Directory has been fun and I grew it from PR N/A to PR 4 in just a few months. It would have been sooner if G**gle updated Pagerank a bit quicker.

The price that I am putting on Xtreme Directory is going to be $500. Simply because I put a lot of work into it and it has a good amount of potential. The make it quick here are the stats for the site

Alexa ranking is 139k It has 3300 Categories and around 3000 active links. It has 7000 back links and was receiving around 250 visitors a day until I stopped promoting it.

I will sell the directory as is or you can just have the domain for a lower price. If you are interested in this directory please leave a comment for me in this post or contact me. You can also visit my post on DP at http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=558210
