Juggling many projects?

One thing is for sure. Getting into the internet marketing field also means getting excited about all the possibilities and opportunities that come along the way. Most of the time, we tend to take on too many projects simultaneously. This is almost fine, as long as the projects are short-term ones. The main problems arise when our projects are long-term and involve teams with many people.

For quite some time, I used to think that the way to go was many in-house projects with many other people. My aim was to get involved with several teams and help each one with its project management, promotion, monetization and branding. I thought that since my tasks were limited to team management and promotion, and since my involvement actively starts near the end of each project right before its release, it’s the best to take on as many as possible and hope one of them meets success. I thought I had all bases covered.

But I was wrong!

What I found out the hard way was

What is a CMS?

Nowadays, the amount of information increases exponentially. This includes the information available on the internet that many organizations expose. A never-ending cycle, it implies that:  a source exposing more information makes the source more influential, resulting in even more information being exposed by other sources. In order for this information to be managed, several systems have been implemented to facilitate the creation and, most importantly, the taxonomy of it. Therefore, any modern web site of dynamically managed content should implement a content management system (CMS).

The most popular CMS are:

1. WordPress
2. Joomla
3. Drupal

Let’s take a look at them and see what each one has to offer.

Path to choose

I’ve been trying to find a way to choose how this blog will evolve.

There are two approaches.

The first one would be to write articles about advanced users and create a “strong” appearance on the internet marketing industry. While this might be a good way to “kickstart” the blog and create a lot of “hype” I think that it would be much better if i could:

Start from scratch

Lay everything down from the beginning and guide the readers from step and day one. I am sure many friends will be disappointed but the value that a “newbie” in internet marketing will get is more than i could hope for this blog.

Getting someone who has never heard of internet marketing before and guide him through every step seems much more fulfilling to me. So if you’re reading this post and haven’t got a clue what internet marketing is and how people make a lot of money with their sites, just add the site to your rss list or your bookmarks and start exploring this amazing field.

That’s it for now, good luck on this beginning to both of us!

Journey so Far

My journey with Internet marketing started six years ago. It was a process that involved a lot of “playing” and many trials and errors. After all it’s the journey that counts, not the destination.

This mentality didn’t help in my beginning, but at least I’ve learned my lessons.

The Journey itself might be a splendid thing, but without a goal any journey is endless and ultimately pointless. To trully understand this notion, I had to spend 6 months over my computer trying to rank position 25 for a term searched over 24.000 times a day; only to realize thatw the market was crawling with webmasters and the money i was making from my own traffic wasn’t particularly good. Well that’s the problem with me, once I see competition, I’m all up in it,no hesitation. LESSON LEARNED.

Vision without planing is pointless.

Welcome Post

Hello and welcome to my new blog, Moneytized.com

Thinking about it, this blog is being developed for more than two years. It was always my intention to release a blog not only about SEO(search engine optimization) but internet marketing in general, with guides in various fields of the internet marketing, from campaign management to branding.

When I started with internet marketing back in 2005, I was always keeping notes on special posts I’ve read, together with comments. Watching this folder with data grow was the best thing I could imagine, but at the same time, the need to transform this data into information so that it can be shared with the rest of the world, became stronger.

This blog is created and will be used as a tool for me and friends to find all the information needed much easier. It will be my pleasure if I could see more people getting involved with this effort in terms of comments and corrections and why not, even more.
