George Foreman is concerned about your health.

--G5 grill from George Foreman--

After prolonged procrastination, I decided to attend one day cooking class. Don't laugh at me please because, "Mom, do you need to learn at this age" question you may entertain.

The story goes like this: My husband suddenly picked up a liking for grilled food after he tasted a grilled vegetable sandwich.

Now he wants me to learn to use a sophisticated grill so that he can order (how dare) me to make him a grilled dish daily.

To pacify me, he bought a sleek looking G5 grill from George Foreman who has sold almost 100 million grills so far. He even managed to buy a recipe book full of grilled food.

For healthy grilling, he gathered a few ingredients too, claiming that he researched for them. I am sure he got them from the recipe book he bought.

In-text advertising pays.

After much procrastination, I signed up with Kontera and I have already inserted their ad code on this blog. You may see their in-text ads in some of the posts in this blog.

Kontera has been in this field for long. They now offer in-text advertising and publishers can benefit from this financially.

Kontera’s ContentLink In-Text Website Advertising lets you monetize your content in real-time, resulting in an increased revenue. These in-text ads always point to us whether our content has really proper keywords to the topic we have written on.

The above point is important and may force us to re-read our blog post and modify if necessary. I was given to understand that Kontera provides more control and better usability than some of the other networks that offer inline text ads.

Any insight?

Forums that pass on link juice.

There may be hundreds of forums that may pass on link juice. Passing on link juice means removing 'no follow' attribute. Our blog gets backlinks-one way backlinks if we happen to leave behind our link to blogs as a signature.

But, I know all such 'do follow' forums may not be interesting to bloggers. Forums must be in our niche to participate-right?

Feedburner forum is definitely a nice for bloggers and it follows our links. I was encouraged to join this forum because it has more 75,000 members.

But, what a disappointment when I opened that site. It is on the verge of closing. I think I have missed out on a golden opportunity to get backlinks and readerships by not being aware of the feedburner forum earlier.
