Upstart Blogger is a site dedicated to helping bloggers create, maintain, promote, and earn money from their blogs. Personally I don’t like the layout very much, and found the archives difficult to browse through, but people who like the minimalist look will probably love it.
On the other hand, I found the articles useful and informative, more than making up for whatever I found lacking in the visual department. Here are a few articles I found useful and/or interesting:
- 25 Steps to launching your blog and making $100 in 30 days
I’m definitely going to try this in the coming month - I desperately need to start earning money to pay my share of the bills. - How to avoid blogging quicksand
I think I made all of these mistakes with my first blog - Size matters
How to choose what size to make your blog - Quick Web Design Mockups Using iWeb
A great idea that I can’t wait to try! - Why DreamHost Sucks
Well, now I know it’s not just my terrible internet connection that’s causing problems when I view my site. I can’t believe I only read good things about Dreamhost before I bought my hosting plan there
There are also goodies like free WordPress themes and contests, and right now Ashley is giving away a 3G iPhone!
So hop over to the Upstart Blogger site and browse through the archives a bit, you’ll find many more useful posts for bloggers!
PremiumThemes.net is a premium WordPress themes website with a collection of 27 premium themes and a couple of free ones too.
They have many good themes, but I have my eye on their SimpleSite portfolio theme. I would use it as my personal blog and a gateway to my other blogs that are more focused on a specific subject - just under the header is a space to put the banners of my other blogs, so there’s no way to miss them. I can’t believe it - just yesterday I was thinking I needed a theme with that exact feature, and now I’ve found it! 
Right now they are also holding a contest in which the lucky winner will get the premium theme of their choice, so I might just get my wish!
WPThemeDesigner is giving away 30 premium WordPress themes in a contest ending on June 30. The themes will be awarded according to how many points the participants have earned, and those with higher points get first choice!

Zac Johnson and Market Leverage are holding a contest in which you can win an iPod Nano, an iPod Touch, a Flip Mino, and more. Hop on over to ZacJohnson.com to see the details.
Affiliate Confession, Market Leverage, and Vat19 have teamed up to give away:
- Nintendo DS Lite + 2 games
- Affiliate Confession T-shirt
- Flip Mino camcorder
- iPod Nano
- 2GB USB pen
- $50 Market Leverage rewards card
- USB Missile Launcher
- Banana Bunker
- Video Aquarium DVD
I would love to finally get a Nintendo DS, and the Flip Mino would also be great because my digital camera doesn’t take good videos. I would also obviously love to have an iPod Nano! The banana bunker is a good idea - I never take bananas with me when I go out because I don’t want them to get squashed in my bag. I have no use for the Missile Launcher though, so if I won it I’d probably give it away - or maybe use it to play with my cats! 
(not to shoot at them obviously, but for them to chase the missiles! 
)
The Net Fool is holding a contest in which you can win a Flip Video Mino and a $50 MLRewards Card. In case you didn’t know (maybe I’m living under a rock, but I didn’t until I saw it in a contest a few months ago :P), The Flip Video Mino is a camcorder that has apparently become the preferred camcorder of bloggers. Now that wouldn’t usually mean anything to me, but I popped over to the official site to see the features, and it sounds really good: Continue reading ‘Win a Flip Video Mino and a $50 MLRewards Card’

This seems to be a period filled with contests! I found another one yesterday at dnxpert.com that has 62 prizes, including cash, material goods, and digital products. You can win multiple prizes, and all you have to do to enter is subscribe to their newsletter. One lucky person will be walking away with $700 cash, and I’m hoping it will be me! If I do, I’ll finally be able to get Adobe CS3 ^__^
