Author's Comments
I know that you have grown tired of our writing articles about article marketing. However, we feel that this is one of the best ways to attract traffic to your website.
John has published 59 articles to date. This has paid off. John received an email this week from a staff editor of Beyond.com inviting him to become a guest author.
Since John did not ask permission to reprint the email, we will paraphrase it for you. In the email the editor said that she had read some of John’s works on ezinearticles.com and felt that his articles would be a great addition to the Beyond.com articles and blog.
The reason for this discussion is to urge you to write and publish articles. John published his first article on ezinearticles.com on May 2, 2006. Since then he has published an average of about one article per week. You can do the same if you set a schedule and stick to it. The first article is the most difficult, so write it now.
The first article posted on Beyond.com is one about becoming a consultant when you retire. It is a variation of an article posted on Ezine Articles.
Q & A, Suggestions and Comments
We received an email from a reader who was very upset that we were pushing the Google Cash Detective. Her position was that it was not right to use GC Detective and take over a person’s spot.
I am torn on this issue, but I still feel that it is competition on the Internet.

Creating eBook Covers - Continued
Last week I told you about placing an order for an ebook cover to use for the paper I wrote titled “Starting Your Own Business”. I hope that most of you have downloaded this paper.

Looking for Hosting in All the Wrong Places
This is an article I wrote for Ezine Articles. I have observed that advertising for web hosting is all oriented to the technical side of web hosting. I guess it is easy to measure gigabytes of storage and bandwidth. What really needs to be measured is the success of the users of the web host.

StatCounter Update
We wrote about Statcounter in Volume 1 Issue 40 (http://www.boomer-ezine.com/V1I40_011207.htm). The article includes a video to show you how StatCounter works.
StatCounter was free for log files under 101 records. There was a charge for a log file larger than 100. This week I receive an email that StatCounter has increased its free log space to 500 records. If you use StatCounter, you probably received the same email.
If you do not use StatCounter, I encourage you to use it. I have installed the StatCounter script on every web page that I create. Every couple of days, I log on to StatCounter and check the traffic stats for our websites. It is revealing. I use it to optimize the pages and increase conversions.
You can check out Statcounter at http://www.statcounter.com.
That wraps up our issue for this week. Until next week, stay tuned.
