Good precise answers, Jeremy. That was a good interview from her part too. But she seemed star struck, and was blushing. Must have been the Shoe effect.

I’m going to guess by that piece that Abby Prince doesn’t have a broadcasting background. Brutal interviewer.

Your stuff was good though Jeremy. Always useful information!

Very nice. Is WebProNews pretty new to the space? I’ve noticed a recent surge in their videos recently.

Good points here. I just read something similar on Problogger.net about not overdoing the personal salesmanship.

Nice piece Shoe. I like that you make it clear that you should be posting first and formost and and if there is a affiliate to add to it after the fact, then why not try and earn something too.

The Affiliate Space is still very wide open for bloggers and if you know about a niche then take that info and make a blog full of your hobby info and the affiliate links then become natural and complimentary.

great interview. a few awkward moments but well done. the convention looks kinda empty. i wonder what the attendance was like.

doubtful as most of the time there’s a ban on presenters making their slides available.

nice tips, especially that “money should take a backseat” advice for bloggers. bloggers should hold the monetizing part on the 2nd place

Great interview, and a great reminder to the rest of us to focus on the readers and make monetization a close second place.

Ah it’s great coverage by Abby :) And I love commission junction too!

They have such a huge database of affiliates and their system is great, just great to use :)

I have switched over to affiliate income as my blogs primary source of revenue. Although too early to tell if it has been a good fit for me…time will tell. I did a really ‘far-out’ affiliate push as an experiment…Not to sound ‘spammy’ but I am promoting kitty litter on a ‘blogging to make money’ type of blog.

We shall see the results of this little experiment. Good job. I love your site!
