You Respond to Blog Comments – Do Your Readers Notice?

By Dawn Leave a Comment

As bloggers, we know we need to respond to comments on our blog posts. This lets our readers know there is a real person behind the blog. But have you thought about whether or not your readers are seeing your responses to their blog comments?

Do your readers see your responses to their blog comments? If you aren't using a comment notification plugin, they may never know you responded.

WordPress does not automatically tell your readers when someone has responded to their comments. This means if you don’t have a comment notification plugin, your readers don’t know you have responded to their comments. [Read more…] about You Respond to Blog Comments – Do Your Readers Notice?

How I Earned my first $100 Cash from Swagbucks in 10 Weeks

By Dawn Leave a Comment

I started using Swagbucks on Nov. 4, 2013 thanks to a recommendation from a trusted blogger I follow (and here I am spreading the news on). She insisted you could earn cash from Swagbucks with very little work.

I started using Swagbucks thanks to a recommendation from a trusted blogger. She insisted you could earn cash from Swagbucks with very little work.

In my first week (5 days) of playing around with Swagbucks in my spare time, I had the following results:

  • 50 Swagbucks by filling out registration and profile information on my account
  • 75 Swagbucks for using the search engine
  • 24 Swagbucks for viewing special offers, daily poll and using tool bar
  • 10 Swagbucks for liking on Facebook
  • 400 Swagbucks for signing up for Credit Sesame (a free monitoring service similar to Credit Karma)

My total after my first 5 days was 559 Swagbucks.

So, what could I do with 559 Swagbucks?

A $5 gift card to Amazon.com is only 450 Swagbucks. Most other $5 gift cards (including Starbucks, Target and Walmart) cost 500 Swagbucks. So one Swagbuck is essentially equal to one penny. That doesn’t sound like much, but they can really add up and just in your spare time.

What I chose to do with my 559 Swagbucks was save them up until I had 2,500 Swagbucks and could redeem them for a $25 PayPal deposit. That’s right — real cash! [Read more…] about How I Earned my first $100 Cash from Swagbucks in 10 Weeks

Review of Money-Making Mom by Crystal Paine

By Dawn Leave a Comment

Crystal Paine’s newest book, Money-Making Mom: How Every Woman Can Earn More and Make a Difference, shows women how they can earn more money and use that money as a tool to make a positive impact in this world.

In this book, Crystal provides practical advice for starting a business (any business!) and also finding ways to make money outside of a traditional job.

Crystal Paine's newest book, Money-Making Mom, shows women how they can earn more money and use that money as a tool to make a positive impact in this world. Taking notes is a must!

 

I received a free pre-release PDF copy of Money-Making Mom, but I have pre-ordered my own hard-cover copy and anxiously awaiting its release.

I read through the entire book in a few days and got so many ideas for my own business, but still didn’t know where to start. And it was entirely my fault because I didn’t take notes along the way. I was so excited to dig in that I read the book without pausing to make a plan of action. Don’t make the same mistake I did! [Read more…] about Review of Money-Making Mom by Crystal Paine

Welcome!

Hi. I'm Dawn. I am married with two active kids, a boy and a girl. I enjoy reading, photographing family activities, and preparing home-cooked meals. My education is in business, my working background is in accounting, and I love creating spreadsheets to organize just about everything.

I started blogging in 2013. During my blogging journey, I realized how much I enjoy digging into the technical side of blogging and helping other bloggers to understand analytics and the behind-the-scenes workings of WordPress.
