Heads up UK bloggers: Our man Worstall (of Britblog Roundup<\/a> fame) is actually getting somewhere with his BlogAds UK<\/a> scheme. Could be a way of actually wrangling us some money for the stress and effort this blogging lark costs us. Check it out, and check with the man for more details. If I understand correctly, the more people who sign up, the more we’re likely to be able to charge.<\/p>\n

From la Worstall:<\/p>\n

Two things everyone needs to remember about Blog Ads.<\/p>\n

1) You set your own prices.<\/p>\n

2) You can refuse any ad you wish. Everything gets offered for your

He’s also trying to get us all actually using Trackbacks<\/a> to help foster cross blog debate a bit more on this side of the Atlantic. Nice idea – I keep forgetting to ping people thanks to being lazy (and due to “ping” sounding both silly and potentially rude at the same time…)<\/p>\n

It’s also worth remembering that if auto-pings don’t work for your Trackback system (as they don’t appear to with my Haloscan lark), you can manually ping Trackbacks via this handy site<\/a> – well worth bookmarking. You can even do it if you don’t have trackbacks enabled on your own blog. (Although as Haloscan<\/a> doesn’t cost a penny and is so simple to set up that even I managed it, you haven’t really got an excuse…)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
