Everyone Is Invited To Visit My New Blog Site!

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Yessss!  We are up and running at heyboomers.com.  These are the early days and the site is still only a shadow of its future self but come on over and take a look.  I think Deborah Kunzie, owner of Garlic D’zign, has done a brilliant job on the composite artwork of my headline.  She used a few photos, taken in Egypt and Thailand, and really got creative.  We haven’t yet linked that site to this one, but we soon will.  Later on, there will be picture galleries and books to buy and……. advertisements!!!

Yes, absolutely…..Ads……offering tastefully-selected, appropriate-to-the-theme products-that-I-would-actually- recommend….STUFF that you will certainly wish to investigate.  Theoretically.

If you are as innocent to the Blog Ownership World as I was a few months ago, you might not know these little insider facts about the possibilities of making money by blogging under your own label.   Since this is a tell-all site about the adventures of making  dreams come true….which in my case is blogging, book publishing, and more world travel…… then, I shall proceed to tell you all about the new world of advertising on these personal spaces.  Yes!  Blogs can make money for you, as well as books can!  Ta Da!

Yesterday, Deb told me to sign up with Amazon Associates so that they would consider my heyboomers site as a possibility for their advertising.  I did and they are now thinking about it.  I expect that I will soon do the same with Google Ads.  If they all like what they see, then we’ll get a chance to accept or pass on various products that might be compatible with our image.  Then a small sign is posted somewhere along the side and when somebody either clicks or buys (it varies), the blog owner gets paid some agreed-upon fee.  This just pours quietly into your bank for as long as the marriage lasts.

You can see the same thing happening in the right-hand column here, except that it’s not me earning that money.  But, isn’t it nice?  Quiet, dignified, non-intrusive but appealing and sometimes right on the money to fulfill someone’s need. 

Besides, the blogger can tell that at least SOMEONE is reading the entries, because a day or so after writing about luggage, for instance, there’s this swarm of little ads offering all sorts of luggage solutions.  It’s wonderfully personalized!  Just go through these little tastefully-written enticements about book publishers, writers, boomers, and work-at-home money-makers.  They know what they’re doing!

I’m really anxious to find out who will flock to my site and set up their cute little booths and send love letters to my bank.  How many marriages am I to make through this new blog of mine?   Please visit me often and click on their sites and support my next jaunt RTW!
