Yes! PR2. This is better than not having PR after having lost PR4. No, not this blog but the main blog -> TeacherJulie.com
This is even better than having Manny Pacquiao win his WBC Title. No kidding.
This is got to be one of the best news that has happened to the main blog.

One of the most effective ways for advertisers to promote their products online is through buzz marketing. Buzz marketing is a “word of mouth” marketing strategy aiming to target customers through verbal interaction. For customers who rely on online information, buzz marketing can be done in various forms like profile pages or blog posts or through emails or even instant messaging or even message board threads/forums. In this line, marketing strategists, to be more specific, blog marketing, have developed systems that would be able to connect advertisers with bloggers for buzz marketing. One of these is Snapbomb, where advertisers and bloggers are connected in a fully automated marketplace that provides buzz analytics.
Why bloggers?
Blogs are here to stay. Blogs are platforms where the writers, also called bloggers, write about different topics. It is fast becoming a source of information in the internet. With blogs, Snapbomb advertisers are able to advertise their products to relevant and targeted audience. In doing so, Snapbomb is able to track success through their buzz analytics features in an automated environment. Bloggers can choose to write about paid opportunities for topics that interest them and their blog’s niche because advertisers have created campaigns targeting a specific audience. This is where the Snapbomb’s Buzz Analytics work: by tracking responses to the campaign and giving immediate feedback on the buzz effect that has been created by the post.
Bloggers are paid for writing these advertising campaigns which is also called blog marketing.

A lot of people are putting up blogs to be able to express their thoughts in writing, promote their products and services or simply to connect with their loved ones and other bloggers as well. Blogging is a little bit time consuming and tedious. Blogging can be expensive too because it is not just electricity, web hosting services, domain name registration and connectivity services that are being paid but time is spent as well too. So these people who blog have to find ways to somehow blog for money.
How is this done? By joining blog advertising, or putting advertising in their blogs. In other words, these bloggers, including me, blog for money. How is this done through Smorty? Bloggers first sign up with this service which connects advertisers to them. When these bloggers get approved, then these bloggers get to choose what to write about. In writing about the products and services of these advertisers, bloggers include key words along with the anchor texts provided for by the advertisers. Then they get paid for their work, or in short, bloggers can now blog for money. Take note though that not because a blogger can advertise on blogs, mean that these bloggers can just write and write. These bloggers have to make it a point to write properly using the correct syntax and spelling. These bloggers should also know how to follow instructions as well. After all, they are being paid for it.

Splog or spam blogging is one of blogosphere’s not-so-funny sites. A splog links to your posts and may even up blog’s links. These are fake blogs that copy the first few sentences from blogs and post these in their site with some links going to where the posts were copied. Popular topics covered are about gambling, poker, home mortgage and even parenting.
Here is an example of splogging I got and which I have removed the link attached to the permalink (the permalink is linkless 😀 ) :

When clicked, the splog site was gone. Instead, this was found:

Anyway, what can be seen when the link is clicked is my post.
