Hi Jill

I've got so much going on it's hard to tell just which part of sales
come *directly* as a result of my blogs.  I've tied blogs in to
my marketing very intricately, so they act as

 * lead generators
 * content resources
 * search engine traffic magnets
 * direct selling tools
 * donation getters
 * list builders
 * affiliate promotion tools
 * ad revenue spinners

... even integral parts of some of my products!

All I can say is if you're not blogging, start doing it.  The goldrush
of search engine ranking is probably ending, but there's a lot more
in blogs to make them great business supporting struts.

And just yesterday I read the most amazing book on RSS feeds
and their use in publishing and marketing, by Rok Hrastik.  You
can see a review on my blog -

I don't care if you order it using my affiliate link - but please,
please do yourself a favor and buy the book.  It's just $47 and
has 354 pages - and is worth reading, re-reading and learning
from.  I spent a straight 3 hours+ yesterday on it, and will
be putting many ideas into effect soon.  There's a ton of value
in there for e-publishers and marketers.

Sorry if that's off-topic, but I'd have sent in a separate post
about it in any case :)

All success

Dr.Mani
