LM-BLOG RELAUNCH COMPLETE
Site Sponsor :
Welcome to LM-BLOG, we are once again back and posting as of August 8th 2011.
I have managed to let this site really fall away over the past year and know I have lost most, if not all of my regular readers. So I must try my hardest to build this back up to its previous highs when the site got up to an Alexa rank of around 45,000.
There is only one part of the site left to relaunch and this is the logo. I plan to do this when I have some extra spare time so that I can make it look at its best. For now it is not a priority to have a “pretty logo” but more important to give users great posts .

Adsense is back
Well I have decided it is time to re-introduce Adsense to my blog in the hope of monetizing the site a little. To both help finance the site and also too give me some extra cash.
What is Adsense ?
I am going to experement a few different placements, within the layout. Firstly looking at the footer of the page, then moving onto the sidebar (placed roughly where the Adgitize ads are) then I am planning to work the Google Adsense ads into the posts to see how this works.

Press Release by Adgitize :
Read MoreMany advertisers over the last year and a half have requested the ability to target their ads to specific markets within the Adgitize Ad Network. Target Marketing is the ability to show your ad only on specific publisher blogs that write for a specific subject or category.
Target Marketing to Subject Matter
We received the first request for targeted marketing back in December 2008. An advertiser requested to only show their ad on blogs with a subject matter of sports. Target marketing will allow our advertisers to specify a specific subject matter category like sports, computers, politics or music and video. Adgitize has created 32 specific subject matter categories within which our advertisers will be able to specifically target their ad.
Adgitize has also created regional or continent categories, so you will be able to target a specific area of the world. This new geographic categorization will enable advertisers to aim their ad to a particular audience.
Why Get Paid Blog Hosting ? – Part 2
I will continue with my previous post on the reasons to get and not to get paid hosting for your blog. Read bellow for the continuation.
Will my own domain gain me more users?
In many cases people just want to move becuase they believe their own domain will “make them better bloggers” or make “more visitors”. This can be true, i wont deny it, however it is not really guaranteed to happen like this.
Infact it can have the opposite effect. You may want to “make a return” on your investments on hosting that you will just post anything to make sure you have posts (I have done it myself).
A good domain name is memorable so people may return over and over. But content is just as important. People will search hard if they know the content is good so if your members are high already it may be a good move to go private.

2010 looked set to be another memorable year for Adgitize, so far not for the reasons Ken and the team had hoped for.
for those of you who dont know Adgitize recently suffered almost 4 days of continuous downtime and when the site finally came back online users got less than 24 hours of access before the site dropped offline for another day or so.
Every new creation suffers problems and this is just one of Adgitizes problems, a problem which is being overcome and will most likely never happen again. For a small sized company such as Adgitize it takes longer to solve issues which take large companies, such as Google, to fix.
These small issues should not be looked at as “issues” or “problems” of the program but more of a learning exercise for Adgitize, perhaps even for yourself as you may come across a similar issue in the future. These learning exercises help to improve Adgitize and make it a much stronger and secure system for the future.
