Hello:

I started my blog five weeks ago and it's readership has grown well. Just a week ago I started to put in little ads for amazon.com.

I write strongly and tried to make the ads strong but not obtrusive.

I realize that this is too short a test but I believe I am the only one to click on it.

Do I need to start over?

thanks for the help.

Jim

    Put a live link in your sig. You can also put a live link in your post since it seems you're seeking legit advise and not spamming.

      Sorry. I will correct that now. It is a amazon.com link in my blog.

      Here it is: Corporate Espionage

      I did a copy/paste for the link. I don't know why it did not copy as a live link..Is this site making link no-follow?

      I don't understand.

      Someone please explain.

      thanks

    Okay, I read some of the stuff up there. First, I didn't see any Amazon ads and unless the ads directly relate to corporate espinonage then they don't belong there. I'd also remove the latest stuff where you come across as aplopgetic about it. It's awful, a major turn off.

    I think you have a very timely topic in corporate espinonage but you've done next to nothing to capture the attention of your visitors. You need an engaging headline telling your readers about the benefits of learning about how they are at risk and what they can do to protect themselves.

    Your writing isn't bad but it could definitely benefit from a professional proofreader to polish it up some. I don't think you need to start over but you do need to make some adjustments in what you have. Good luck.
