Money Making Secret #1 &endash; Who's Linking to YOUR Website
What is Link Popularity? Link popularity is the total number of web sites that link to your site.
And why is it important?
Because good link popularity can dramatically increase traffic to your web site. Well placed links are an excellent source of consistent and targeted traffic. And due to recent developments, they can even generate additional search engine traffic to your site.
Most of the major search engines now factor Link Popularity into their relevancy algorithms. As a result, increasing the number of quality, relevant sites which link to your site can actually improve your search engine rankings. There is still no one "secret trick" to getting good rankings, but boosting your site's popularity may give it the edge it needs.
Knowing who links to your site and increasing the number of quality links is an important part of any web site promotion effort. This free service allows you to query Google, Altavista, and Hotbot and reports on link popularity.
Go to http://linkpopularity.com, then simply enter YOUR URL to find out who's linking to your website.
Thanks to Kathleen Scheps and Larry Barnhart for this valuable resource. ==================================================

Money Making Secret #3 - Here's a Neat Way to CELEBRATE ANYTHING
Last Saturday, May 31st, was my birthday ... and I was feeling a bit lonely UNTIL my friend Mark Weber called me from Chandler AZ and gave me a 'homework' assignment.
He made me promise to sit down and write 72 things that I'm thankful for. Then another 72 things that I regret doing or NOT doing. (After completing the second assignment, he asked me to take a match to it and burn this second list.
I'm diligently working on List #1 THINGS TO BE THANKFUL FOR. Who knows, this just may turn into another book, booklet, or e-zine.
To celebrate, my daughter Renee and I drove to Marie Callender's today and bought a whole banana meringue pie FOR ONLY $5.99.
ALL their pies are on sale during June for $5.99 each.
I've shared this pie with three special people in my life. I can't be down when I share pie (or anything else) with others.
What do you have to celebrate this week? How are you going to celebrate it? Let me know ... I'll be sharing 'WINS' with others.
