Wanna Get Listed on Google News? Use American Chronicle to Increase Pageviews...


Wanna Get Listed on Google News? Use American Chronicle to Increase Pageviews...by Paula Neal Mooney

Can I tell you how much I'm lovin' American Chronicle right now? I'd searched and searched for ways to get listed as a news source on Google News. I submitted my Orble blog to try and get on Google News, but they summarily rejected it, saying that Google News didn't accept websites maintained by one person.

Then Orble bought the GoodAndBadNews.com domain name for me, which I considered building up and using multiple bylines and submitting to Google News...I still might do that.

But in the meantime, Googling for "submit to Google News" or "get included in Google News" or something like "PLEASE GET ME ON GOOGLE NEWS!!!" I found some guy whose blog post led me to American Chronicle. (Sorry, dude, I'm feeling research lazy right now. I'll give you the link credit later, hopefully...)

Anyway, I sent the editors at American Chronicle three of my best Associated Content articles' links and forgot about it. A week or so later, after I'd forgotten who the heck American Chronicle was, they sent me the approval and I started submitting articles up the wazoo to American Chronicle.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that American Chronicle takes HTML, so I can just copy my blog posts' HTML right on over to my American Chronicle articles. They publish relatively quickly...some stuff went up the same day, within an hour or two or three. Other stuff is languishing. They might not like my iframe Amazon code or blatant blog promotion...

But American Chronicle does get writers so much more exposure and in the face of folks like my sister, who admitted today that she excludes blogs on her Google News alerts about Chavez (she works for an oil company) -- and I understand. Many times I only search Google News in hopes of only finding the straight news stories.

See my Associated Content article about American Chronicle to find out the particulars...and email subscribe or bookmark http://www.paulamooney.blogspot.com/ for more tips like this to increase your readership.

Update: For those who continue to enjoy this post, check out my website about 50 real online people making more than $50k per year , and my page where I update my online salary . UPDATE: Before you read any further or especially link to this old list, please check out "Paula's New List of Blogger Salaries (and Webmasters, Affiliate Marketers, Content Scrapers, Domainers and any other title you can think of) June 2007" by clicking here! ~ Thanks, PAULA NEAL MOONEY by Paula Neal Mooney One of my favorite features in Parade magazine is the issue where they grab a random sampling of people and report their incomes -- from the millionaires to the working poor. Since I'm fascinated with how much money bloggers and webmasters are making nowadays, I've created a similar list -- a random sampling of people making money on the net. Who's on Paula's List of Blogger and Webmaster Salaries? I spent hours and hours scouring the internet for the last-reporte

Paula's New List of Blogger Salaries (and Webmasters, Affiliate Marketers, Content Scrapers, Domainers and any other title you can think of) June 2007

FIND OUT HOW MUCH BLOGGERS REALLY MAKE ONLINE -- CHECK OUT THIS NEW WEBSITE ABOUT MONEY-MAKING ONLINE CALLED 50 OVER $50K... by Paula Neal Mooney The time has come. The time is now. Paula N. Mooney will you please publish that list now?! (Yes, I fancy Dr. Seuss' iambic pentameter.) My WebMaster blest me with a viral post called "Paula's List of Blogger Salaries," and the response was so wonderful, here lies an update. It's bigger and better than ever before with more pics, and double the amount of bloggers, webmasters, domainers, affiliate marketers (or a smidgen of some or all of those titles) and their reported incomes. How Much Do You Make? Money is funny. The abundance of it, the lack of it, the subject of cash in general gets attention. While some invoke their choice not to post their online income nor discuss it at all, I've always been of the Suze Orman mindset ever since I read her first book. Suze encourages people to talk ab

Digg.com's Autobury Secret Blacklist...Are you still being banned by automatic burying?

UPDATE: PLEASE CLICK THIS LINK TO DIGG THIS STORY AND TELL DIGG TO PLAY FAIR... by Paula Neal Mooney Many of us know the power of Digg.com, dreamed up by Kevin Rose, who touted it as a "user driven" site that says it allows the general public to determine the stories they want to see make it to the front page by voting for interesting articles they find across the web. The more votes the public gives an article, the better chance it should have to make it to the front page. Theoretically... The power of Digg's front page Digg.com -- according to Alexa -- is now more popular than The New York Times. Getting one of your articles or blog posts to the front page of Digg.com will get your website seen by plenty of eyes. John Chow experienced a one-day traffic record of 55,856 page views when one of his posts hit the front page of Digg. Digg Bans Domains...then Supposedly Unbans Them One day, Digg banned me -- I'm still not clear why. I found out they banned a whole bun
