It seems to me that a lot of thought has gone in to this site. I like its theme and when you read it, it’s evident that the author has previous internet marketing experience. Each post is clearly thought out – in fact, the author talks about how and why she does this in her latest post.

Other recent posts alert us to the difficulties that she and others had with one programme (and why we should avoid it !), and how one of her other blogs got on to page 1 of Google.  (Very nice going !). “Public Service Announcements” like this and Conspicuous Achievement in an Ultra-Competitive Niche both score highly on my Blog Of The Day criteria.

Delving further back we find an article about AdSense that made me realise that this blog is actually a bit different to most of the others that have won in this contest. Not only does it have AdSense, it also has some banner-style ads at the end of each post and a peel-away ad.

My reflex reaction to these is negative because I see them as possible exit points for visitors. But if you read the AdSense article, you will realise that the blog is actually using the tactics described in it. So it must be working ! And if it makes you cash, then you really can’t argue with that

I suggest that you take a peek at the blog I referred to earlier, the Page 1 of Google blog, as I think that we can learn a lot from that too. Finally, buried back in earlier posts, is something which is almost certain to make you laugh out loud. Check it out here.

So for blogging that is scientific and combines discussion of serious issues that deserve our attention with lovely humorous touches, Petra Weiss wins today’s Blog Of The Day for petra-weiss.com

Congratulations, Petra ! Your Blog Of The Day Award badge is on its way !
