Can I Sing About my Maker? ... Building up PaulaNealMooney.com

Google penalizing the PaulaMooney.blogspot.com URL (for whatever unknown reason), has compelled me to build up the PaulaNealMooney.com URL I've owned for several months now.

So I've switched PaulaNealMooney.com from redirecting to this blog, and loaded up WordPress on it, and have started blogging separately over there.

Since PaulaNealMooney.com has been linked to and is already being crawled regularly by Google, I figured I might as well build that puppy up and SEO that mug -- since most of my SEO efforts on this penalized blog are for naught.

I'm not ditching the paulamooney.blogspot.com URL -- it still has a great Alexa rank and PR of 3 from Google, so it's still good for blogging tips and paid postings -- but not SEO'd posts.

The "big Googe" ranks them too low in the SERPs.

The PaulaNealMooney.com will be a hodgepodge of stuff like my complete infatuation with the song "Fence Riders" by Jimmy Needham I heard last night and keep playing over and over again from his MySpace page.

HI Paula!!!

I too am thinking seriously about yanking my blog off blogger, for many reasons such as lack of real creative license as well as the lack of space provided.
I am glad to know you will be doing more with your other venture, but will still be here too. I would miss this blog :-)

Ny traffic has not suffered at Vegan Momma it keeps increasing each month. My new websites went up to a three. Two were ranked at two. I don't do anything with them at the moment, and a one that I have not publicized now has a PR of 5. The majority of my traffic does not come from search engines, I get a lot on my niche websites from Referrals, and social networks. I did not want to be dependent on search engines so with my newer websites I made sure that I could still do fine regardless.

I do think it's a good idea to move to your own place that way you don't have to worry about your blog being canceled. I have heard that has happened to a few people for no apparent reason.

Sorry to hear about your blog being penalized. I'm new to the website game, and my new site finally got a little green love. Haa. Has anyone come out and said why all these sites got penalized? It seems like there's a lot of sites that weren't selling links or buying links that got a drop in PR.

Hey Everybody -

Thanks for all these great comments.

I read them all, even if I don't always get to respond individually.

Um...I'm so glad that Google has restored the PR of this blog up to a 4, and given many of my other sites PRs that never had them before.

So I'm continuing to plug away at the niche stuff!

Google just doesn't seem to like paid posting, but I'll probably keep doing it for this blog, at least.

Take care and happy Wednesday,
Paula

Paula's List of Blogger Salaries...Are you on the list?

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...

† Tissa Godavitarne - Scam? Hoax? Or Internet Marketing Genius? Read these reviews...

UPDATE - I can't do it. Just as soon as I signed up with Tissa's people search engine, I cancelled. I just don't feel right about helping people find other people's addresses and phone numbers. AND THIS PRIVACY ISSUE IS GAINING STEAM. CHECK OUT THE CONTROVERSY BREWING OVER THE MYLIFE.COM PRIVACY SELLING ISSUES THAT TISSA USES TO PROVIDE THE PEOPLE SEARCH ENGINE INFO. I know I could probably make money with it, but it's just not sitting right with my soul. Back to the drawing board. I know better things await... I kept trying to rationalize that many people could use the people search engines for good purposes, like reconnecting with old classmates and finding deadbeat dads and such -- but the reality is that if just one person uses them for nefarious purposes, I just don't want to be a part of that. I wonder if Tissa would care if people found out the address of his fabulous home, and came a' knocking on his door? How I Bought a Brand New $1.2 Million Dolla...
