So happy that there is a following around here already! &lt;a href="http://thelovelist.net/"&gt;Jessica&lt;/a&gt; and I are working on creating a forum format connected to this blog that will make discussions a bit easier to track while still posting topics up on here. Hopefully after a bit of work this weekend, we'll be pretty much up and running! And, I will work on answering/addressing many of the topics and questions posed in the comments from the first post as well. Stay tuned!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5030307089977342020-1777269802073662254?l=bloggersafterhours.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bloggersafterhours.blogspot.com/feeds/1777269802073662254/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5030307089977342020&amp;postID=1777269802073662254' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5030307089977342020/posts/default/1777269802073662254'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5030307089977342020/posts/default/1777269802073662254'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bloggersafterhours.blogspot.com/2009/06/just-update.html' title='Just An Update...'/><author><name>cassandra @ coco+kelley</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='22' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Xwl37FACTh0/TKiYMtVLlFI/AAAAAAAAL08/-NTZguM1Njw/S220/meinred2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030307089977342020.post-7779221551973073947</id><published>2009-06-03T14:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-03T16:28:07.530-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='resources'/><title type='text'>A Little Resource...</title><content type='html'>I just discovered the site &lt;a href="http://www.seochat.com/" target="_blank"&gt;SEO Chat&lt;/a&gt; that has some very useful links in their left sidebar... Guess I'll start a useful links roll tonight to add to this space, and continue to post on any resources that come my way. Excited to continue the conversation! There's got to be a formula (for those who want one) to this!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cocokelley/3593627936/" title="f2981_OlaRogowska_TwojStyl_November2005_BarbaraCzartoryska_1892 by coco+kelley, on Flickr"&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3611/3593627936_1ddc514d45_o.jpg" width="420" height="358" alt="f2981_OlaRogowska_TwojStyl_November2005_BarbaraCzartoryska_1892" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;And yes, I had to include a photo with the post. Of course.  Because this blogging thing sure gives me a headache some days... but I'm glad it's not just me! And pretty pictures always seem to help.

HOW TO START?</title><content type='html'>Well, we were all a Twitter today about advertising on blogs. What's the standard? Is there one? What's the formula you're using? My rates are no secret (if you ask, I send them) so here they are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;$85/month for top placement&lt;br /&gt;$65/month for below the fold&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I figure if there's gonna be a discussion, we have to be honest about what we're all charging! Of course, there are many factors that go into figuring out what to charge, and I don't pretend to understand them all myself. Obviously, readership (uniques and pageviews) are a huge piece. As is content, size of ad, type of ad... on and on and on...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SO, why don't we start with this. What are your questions? For those of you who are already charging, how did you figure it out? Do you have a secret formula? For those of you who haven't started yet - what do you want to know? We'll take it from there...!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5030307089977342020-8533805983291556151?l=bloggersafterhours.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bloggersafterhours.blogspot.com/feeds/8533805983291556151/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5030307089977342020&amp;postID=8533805983291556151' title='15 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5030307089977342020/posts/default/8533805983291556151'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5030307089977342020/posts/default/8533805983291556151'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bloggersafterhours.blogspot.com/2009/06/ad-rates-what-to-charge-how-to-start.html' title='AD RATES - WHAT TO CHARGE?
