It didn’t matter that the year was over, one thing remains the same - I’m churning out sites with brand spanking new Wordpress themes every two weeks. There’s a ton of exciting stuff becoming “standard” in this year’s Wordpress themes, like shortcodes, the 960 Grid, and themes that continue to push Wordpress into CMS status. Check out my totally upgraded Best Wordpress Themes list - newly re-designed with dead themes removed and shiny new ones added.

We all have weaknesses, and mine, by far, is that I absolutlely suck at negotiation. Thanks to several shows on channels like History and Spike, I think I’m getting the hang of it.

Lately, my…

I’ve switched from Droid to iPhone and couldn’t be happier. It’s just better, all around. The touchscreen sensitivity is better, the apps are WAY better, and who could forget about all of that cool aftermarket stuff? I’ve been writing a few helpful articles over on Squidoo about it, such as how I was able to connect my iPhone 4S to my Linksys router. After encountering a snag with one of the 3rd party apps I’ve downloaded which kept crashing the iPhone, I wrote an article about how you can resolve issues when your iPhone crashes due to an app. Lastly, I wrote a review on the super cool Zagg Invisible Shield, which is by far the best screen protector for the iPhone 4S on the market.

After having spent a lengthy amount of time getting a new sterling silver necklace, I decided to simply pool up everything I’ve learned and make a brand new Squidoo lens all about buying a men’s silver necklace. Everything’s in there, from basic facts about silver, to the many different chain types out there, and even width & length (and how they affect price). Hopefully it’s a help to other people in the market for some “Ag” (that’s the element for Silver, btw…)

One thing I can’t let go of is the fact that Google Panda has screwed me out of a long-held ranking, and therefore, a massive chunk of my monthly earnings. It took some due diligence to see how…

In terms of auction software, it’s a pathetic state of affairs – even after years of high demand, nothing out there is worth anyone’s money. If you’re a developer, this is my gift to you: a mega…

Here are several conclusions I’ve come to about the state of SEO and why 2011 should be considered the climax of your SEO career.

1. Say goodbye to comfort. Some of those cemented rankings you’ve…

With the arrival of Google Panda, my recent experiences purchasing a few premium domains, and a total shift in the way people use the internet, I begin to wonder about the current and future state…

If you’ve ever bought a domain name from registrars like GoDaddy, Network Solutions and the rest of the fray, you might have seen that “enter coupon” or “promo code” field right before you make the final payment. The truth of the matter is that one simple code can cut 5%, 10% or even half off your order, and these coupons come and go on a regular basis.

Before you buy domain(s), it’s always in your best interest to simply apply a coupon code before checkout. Even if it doesn’t do anything, it was worth a try. If saving $2 on your order doesn’t sound much, think about how much that saves on dozens of domains purchased throughout the course of a year! Check out this list of domain coupons for several of the most frequently used domain registrars. It could save you a buck or three.

Wordpress 3.2 is here - if you love minimalism, you’ll really appreciate its new admin area! At first, I thought there was a problem because the top bar was completely missing. Anyway, coupled with some of the new Wordpress themes that have been coming out, you can really customize menus more than ever before with Wordpress. Check out my list of best Wordpress themes that have been revised with a whole slew of great new themes for all different purposes.

What I’m looking forward to this year: converting all of my old “Build A Niche Store” sites to Wordpress. Here’s hoping for many more affiliate Wordpress themes to be created - that’s one thing there’s a severe lack of!
