Want blogs you can set up and forget? Impossible with Blogger? Not really. Use free tools available online to automate Blogger and increase your niche profits.

1. Create a Blogger blog if you don’t already have one.
2. Go to your Blogger dashboard and click on settings, then email.
3. Under Email, you will find a section called Mail to blogger address. Create a special email address. All emails received at this address are automatically turned into blogger blog posts.
4. Go ahead and download a simple autoresponder script.(you can download a simple script like the Infinite Autoresponder script)

1. In the autoresponder script, add your the Mail to Blogger email address as a subscriber.
2. Add all the unique, quality articles that you plan to post on your blog and set up the interval at which you would like them to appear.
3. Test it out.

• When choosing an autoresponder, choose one that allows you to leave off the Unsubscribe link for the Mail to Blogger address.
• Make sure you test out the Html tags and links.
• Always use original and useful content

Content sites don’t make money by selling products. They work by providing valuable information that draws lots of traffic, and then selling advertising space and referring visitors to sponsors.

1. Think about your interests and things you know about. For example, a hobby, sports, music, movies, beauty.
2. Research profitable keywords relating to your topic. Pick the ones with high demand and low supply – that is, keywords that a lot of people are searching, but there aren’t a lot of websites to help them.
3. Decide what you are going to create your site about. Look at your list of profitable keywords.
4. Select your domain name using the most profitable keywords.
5. Create your site. Begin writing content and then submit your site online to search engines.
6. Search for affiliate programs and join them. If your site is about music, search for affiliate programs that pay you every time one of your site’s visitors decides to download a song or buy a CD. Join Google adsense and/or the Amazon Associates Program.
7. Keep growing and learning. You may even want to create your own ebook or refer people to a product.

• It is very likely and probable that you will indeed make money with this kind of a website. Creating a website that generates lots and lots of traffic usually does not happen without loads of money put in. That is why if you create a website that is well planned, with the right topic and profitable keywords, you can do it!

Also just because you design a site does not mean you are going to get traffic. It is expensive to hire someone to get your site to be number 1 in the search engines- that is why you’ll want to choose your keywords carefully.

Create your own Web 2.0 company NOW!!

Its easy. Just follow these 10 simple steps and you, too, can be seen in fine dining establishments like Jamba Juice and speaking on panels for conferences like Distribucate 2.0, Fred, Bloggerstock and Elfdex.

1. Solve the smallest possible problem (that is still big enough to matter) for the user and know exactly what problem you’re trying to solve. Google’s first and primary job was very simple: Help people find stuff. They didn’t start layering on everything else until much later. Brad calls this the “narrow point of the wedge.” Its the easiest, simplest version of what you’re trying to do… the smallest bite your users will ever have to chew–small enough to get hooked on very easily.

2. Get a responsive and chatty audience using the product. The del.icio.us community eats new features like piranhas. They pour over the service, discuss it, promote it, and complain when they don’t like stuff. You couldn’t have hired a better, more thorough, or more passionate group of alpha testers. Don’t rush to get the service so easy that my dad can use it, because he’s not going to really be helpful to you in the early days when you need really hardcore Beta testing.

3. Launch. Now. Tomorrow. Every day. Don’t wait until its perfect to put it out in the open. No more closed invite-only betas. Your idea of perfect may not jive with your users’ ideas of perfect. Put whatever you can out there and get people using it as soon as possible. Feed them daily with new features to keep them interested and coming back. No one likes waiting six years for new releases.

4. Distribute. Distribute. Distribute. Don’t force your users to play on your site in a walled garden. Let them take the service and use it wherever they want. (See Flickr badges, Google Ads, Amazon affiliates, Indeed jobrolls, del.icio.us linkrolls, moblogging, RSS, e-mail alerts, etc., etc….) Instead of building it so they will come, go out and get them by placing little bits of your service everywhere on the web. Be where they are.

5. Don’t hold users against their will. If they want to leave, let them pick up with all of the content they created while they were on your site and leave… for free. Charging $0.29 to get back each of the hi rez photos you uploaded to the site (See my upcoming Snapfish post) is thievery. You have to let the barn door open and focus on keeping your customers fed, so they want to come back, instead of coming back because they’re stuck.

6. Be mindnumbingly simple. Extra clicks are deadly. People just won’t do it. Indeed : One search, all jobs. Two boxes: What job and where. You can’t get any easier than that and all it takes is for someone to put one search in for people to go, “Wait…what’s this… links to Monster AND Careerbuilder??”

7. Get people hooked on free. Craigslist wouldn’t have become Craigslist if it wasn’t free for so much for so long. Even now, they’re very profitable and they’re only charging for just a few small pieces of their service in just a handful of their 120 markets. The world is changing. Service is cheaper to provide now than ever and users are expecting to get more for free than ever before. Its hard for a lot of big companies to accept that. I just had lunch recently with a couple of friends from a music publisher. They were signing some bands to “incubator” deals for just a couple of songs to test the market with them. I said, “And you’re giving those songs away for free, right?” They nearly choked on their food. Well, why the heck wouldn’t they? Give a few songs away for free, generate buzz, get lots more people to buy future albums. Seth Godin did that with his books, releasing e-books that generated buzz around hardcover sales. Free sells. Do you think the Facebook would be the Facebook if you had to pay for your smooches like you do on Match?

8. Don’t waste any money on marketing. Word of mouth has never ever been easier or less expensive in the history of human communication. Things go viral in a hurry… when they’re good. Ever see a Skype superbowl commercial? No, but they’ve had 146 million people download it. If you don’t have the service and the quality to back it up, no amount of fancy marketing is going to help… and people are so quick to share cool stuff, because they want to be the person “in the know”. When they’re satisfied, they’ll blog about it and e-mail everyone they know. And they’ll tag it furiously on del.icio.us, too.

9. Don’t overfund. Do you know how many times a day I see companies get funded on Private Equity Week and I’m like, “What the heck are they going to do with all that money??” Underfunding a company can be a problem, too, but thinking that more money makes you better is a fallacy. It probably makes you a bit sloppy and fuzzies your focus. When you raise $2 million, you’re much more likely to have a clear sense of exactly where that money is going to go than if you raised $20 million.

10. No one sucks. I hate it when someone says that a whole service sucks. Now, I say it myself, I’ll admit, but what that does is it teaches you to discount and generalize, and probably miss a lot of small opportunities that add up. Now, I think Ofoto sucks versus Flickr, but people still use it. Why? There’s got to be something there. AOL sucks… or does it? They still have 20 million users, so it can’t entirely suck. You should look at every competitor and take the best of what they do right and do it yourself, even if that’s only one thing and the rest of their service sucks.

A powerful earthquake shook Peru‘s coast near the capital on Wednesday, toppling some buildings and killing at least 15 people. Authorities said the quake generated a tsunami but it wasn’t destructive.Health Minister Carlos Vallejos said there were 15 confirmed deaths in southern Peru, but Civil Defense put the death toll at 22 without providing details.

Peru’s highly respected Cable news station Canal N reported that the 7.9 magnitude quake had caused a church to collapse in the city of Ica south of Lima, killing 17 people and injuring 70.

The U.S. Geological Survey said the earthquake hit at 6:40 p.m. (7:40 p.m. EDT) about 90 miles southeast of Lima at a depth of about 25 miles. Four strong aftershocks ranging from magnitudes of 5.4 to 5.9 were felt afterwards.

Several hours later, President Alan Garcia said in a nationwide broadcast that it apparently had not caused a catastrophe.

“Thank you God Almighty, these terrible quakes did not cause a high death toll like in other years,” he said.

The Hawaii-based Pacific Tsunami Warning Center issued a tsunami warning for the coasts of Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, Costa Rica and Panama. A tsunami watch was issued for the rest of Central America and Mexico and an advisory for Hawaii.

The center canceled all the alerts after about two hours, but it said the quake had caused an estimated 10-inch tsunami near the epicenter.

“It wasn’t big enough to be destructive,” said Stuart Weinstein, the center’s assistant director.

An Associated Press photographer said that some homes had collapsed in the center of Lima and that many people had fled into the streets for safety. The capital shook for more than a minute.

“There was a pretty big, intense, long-wave earthquake,” a woman named Erica in Lima told APTN television. “You could see all the buildings here in San Isidro and the glass shaking.”

“People were running, everyone was grabbing their cell phones,” she added. “They wanted to call home and they couldn’t. No one could get through to my line either.

In his comments, Garcia did not give a death toll, but said there were at least 70 confirmed injured.

He ordered all police personnel to the streets of Lima to keep order and said he was sending the country’s health minister and two other Cabinet members to Ica, 165 miles southeast of Lima, where news reports said the quake hit hardest. Garcia also said public schools will be closed Thursday because the buildings may be unsafe.

Police reported that large boulders shook loose from hills and were blocking the country’s Central Highway east of Lima.

Firefighters quoted in radio reports said that many street lights and windows shattered in Lima but did not specify if there were any injuries. Hundreds of workers were evacuated from Lima office buildings after the quake struck and remained outside, fearing aftershocks

Callers to Radioprogramas, Peru‘s main news radio station, said parts of several cities in southern Peru had been hit with blackouts. Callers reported homes in poor neighborhoods in Chincha near Ica had collapsed.

The quake also knocked out telephone service and mobile phone service in the capital. Firefighters were called to put out a fire in a shopping center. State doctors called off a national strike that began on Wednesday to handle the emergency.

The last time a quake of magnitude 7.0 or larger struck Peru’s central coast was in 1974 when a magnitude 7.6 hit in October followed by a 7.2 a month later.

The latest Peru quake occurred in a subduction zone where one section of the Earth’s crust dives under another, said USGS geophysicist Dale Grant at the National Earthquake Information Center in Golden, Colo.

Some of the world’s biggest quakes strike in subduction zones including the catastrophic Indian Ocean temblor in 2004 that generated deadly tsunami waves.

The tsunami warnings caused alarm up and down the coast.

Alex Kouri president of the Callao region, which includes the port of Callao, adjacent to Lima, urged residents to remain calm in the face of any possible tsunami, while other officials told Radioprograms they were going to evacuate La Punta, a Callao neighborhood, because of the potential threat of a tsunami.

In Colombia, President Alvaro Uribe ordered the partial evacuation of the southern city of Tumaco in response to the warning.

In a press conference, Uribe said residents living along the coastal areas of Tumaco, Colombia’s southernmost city near the border with Ecuador, should immediately move to higher ground as a preventive measure in case a tsunami strikes.

“The reports we received about a possible tsunami are contradictory so we’ve asked that, according to emergency disaster plans, authorities immediately begin the partial evacuation of Tumaco,” said Uribe.

A member of the Rutgers women’s basketball team sued Don Imus and CBS on Tuesday, claiming the radio personality’s sexist and racist comments about the team damaged her reputation.Kia Vaughn filed the lawsuit alleging slander and defamation of character in state Supreme Court in the Bronx the same day Imus settled with CBS Radio in a deal that pre-empts his threatened $120 million breach-of-contract lawsuit against CBS. The settlement allows him to make a comeback bid at a new station.Vaughn’s lawsuit, believed to be the first by a player in the case, says Imus and his former co-host Bernard McGuirk, along with CBS Corp. and CBS Radio, are legally responsible for damage done to her character and reputation. There is no dollar amount listed in the suit.

Vaughn was humiliated, embarrassed and publicly mocked for the comments, the lawsuit claims. Her attorney, Richard Ancowitz, said: “The full effect of the damage remains to be seen.”

“This is about Kia Vaughn’s good name,” Ancowitz said. “She would do anything to return to her life as a student and respected basketball player — a more simple life before Imus opened his mouth on April 4.”

Imus referred to the basketball players as “nappy-headed hos” on his nationally syndicated radio program in April, becoming the target of heated protests. He was fired shortly after.

‘Ho’ is a slang term for a prostitute. After the comments were made, Vaughn said at a news conference: “Unless they’ve given ‘ho’ a whole new definition, that’s not what I am.”

A telephone message left for Imus’ attorney was not immediately returned Tuesday. There was no phone listing for McGuirk in the New York area. A spokeswoman for CBS Radio declined to comment, and CBS network spokesman Dana McClintock did not immediately return a message. MSNBC said it hadn’t seen the lawsuit.

Rutgers women’s basketball program spokeswoman Stacey Brann said that the university had no comment on the lawsuit and that she didn’t know whether other players had sued.

Vaughn, who was a center, had spoken out about Imus on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” in April. She said that the comments overshadowed her team’s amazing season, one the coach has called the most rewarding of her career.

“Our moment was stolen from us,” Vaughn said then. “Instead of us coming here to enjoy what we accomplished and how far we came, we had to sit back and look at media asking questions about what he said.”

Blogger Justine Ezarik is one of the many people who rushed out to buy an Apple iPhone in June.But she just got her first bill, and it’s much larger than she imagined.How big? Well, it came in a box.

In fact, AT&T needed 300 pages to list all of Ezarik’s charges, which totaled about $275.Most of that paper was used to detail the hundreds of text messages she sent and received.”This is a lot of waste,” Ezarik told WTAE Channel 4 Action News.

“It’s a cardboard box, a ton of pages, and plus, it was almost $10 to send this, so it does not make any sense.

“Ezarik took the opportunity to make a point about conserving paper.She recorded a short video — set to the music of an iPhone commercial — and posted it on YouTube.com and her blog, TastyBlogSnack.com.”I have an iPhone and I had to switch to AT&T. So, that’s wonderful.

Well, I got my first AT&T bill, right here in a box,” she says in the video.The one-minute clip, shot in a coffee shop, has been viewed more than 200,000 times.It shows Ezarik going through all 300 pages of her bill and telling viewers to “save a forest” by using e-billing.

AT&T said it rarely sends bills in a box, and its customers do have the option to be billed online instead of on paper.

BEIJING – Four pandas were born in captivity in China on the same day, a rare occurrence after 34 were born in all of last year, state media reported Tuesday.

Xinhua News Agency earlier reported that three pandas had been born, but later said that Eryatou, who had delivered a female baby on Monday evening at the Chengdu Giant Panda Breeding Center in Sichuan province, later gave birth to a second female baby.

Earlier on Monday, Jiaozi gave birth to a male and a female at the same center.

Chinese panda breeding centers now have reported 14 cubs born so far this year, with nine at the Chengdu center and the others at the Wolong Giant Panda Nature Reserve, Xinhua said.

The panda is one of the rarest animals, with an estimated 1,590 living in the wild. Another 210 have been bred in captivity, Xinhua said.

Of the 34 pandas born by artificial insemination in 2006, 30 survived. Both were record figures, Xinhua said.
