We are almost done putting the “COWpetition” eBook together for all our mailing list subscribers and it made us think about how great it was to get such awesome feedback on how we were helping so many of you.

Well we are selfish and we LOVE getting positive feedback from our readers, it makes us happy and we want MORE…. LOTS MORE!

So all we need is you to vote on what you most want us to post about…. we will then do our best to post in order of preference.

I took a look at your analytics on sitepoint and saw an awesome amount of search engine traffic for good keywords, which I didn’t know was possible for such a new blog. Maybe you could share your entire process of getting ranked for those keywords. Also what is your view on buying links on “safe” networks such as tnx.net? Is it really safe?

Buing links can be effective but you certainly need to be careful. We have never used TNX and we can take a look at it and let you know if you want.

Brilliant content so far, can’t wait to see more :)

For me procuring good content is always the hard part, so I’m after effective pre-sales material.

As far as ‘other’ goes. Spur of the moment guesswork tells me that as generic content produced by Internet Marketers gets better and better over time, the art of creating a link-bait pages in order to stand out and get traction will become more and more important.

Any of your thoughts about where IM trends are going and long term planning would be interesting (whilst remembering that prediction is near impossible for anyone).

I think you should write about web analytics.

Maybe a review on Woopra perhaps or any other interesting programs used to track analytics? :mrgreen:

I always need help with web analytics as I lack the skill with how to use them to my advantage.

Hi John,

Its really very difficult to vote for particular one topic, as all of them are important. I personally want to go for 2/3 choices, you should keep check boxes instead of radio buttons, so that we can select more than one :smile:
