The sun is shining (not, it’s a wee bit after 5am), the birdies are mooing (kinda sorta possible, as the 15 TwitterBudgies are grumbling about the light from my computer screen) and the kids are sleeping (yes! Mom can work!) and I just finished reading a superb recap over at Super Blogging Tips. To wit:

…This is the first roundup post here at Super Blogging since I moved them from weekly to bi-weekly, and so far I’m glad I made that decision. It’s opened up space for more real content and made the roundup articles a bit more valuable. After making that choice I wrote 8 Ways To Add Value With Link Roundup Posts, which discusses my decision and also how link posts add value, and how to make yours even more valuable. It’s worth checking out! Also, as always, if you’ve written something on your own site that you’d like me to share with my readers, feel free to email me and I might include it next time! …MORE….

The blog postings listed were all worth quite a lot of perusal to me, especially DoshDosh and his article Rethinking Blog Comments: Much More Than Just A Quick Way to Get Web Traffic.

Why?

Because I had just finished my rounds of blog-reading myself, and found myself with the following opportunity.

I had read a review about a particular Clickbank product, and noticed that the blogger had neglected to cloak the affiliate link. Now, if you’re familiar with Clickbank, you know how easy it is to steal commissions; simply substitute in your affiliate ID instead of the blogger and voila, the commissions go to you instead. And yes, while it’s cheery to think nobody does that, I’m pretty certain it’s standard practice for those in the know (having seen zillions of people buy my products with their own ID).

I had written an article about how to prevent this over at How to easily cloak your Clickbank and other affiliate links for free. So I dashed off an email to the blogger that pointed out the problem at hand as well as the solution, and hopefully, it will help them prevent such commission loss in the future.

Do you do the same thing?

When you visit a blog and notice an error (a spelling mistake, a grammatical typo, a commission problem), do you take the time to alert the blogger/site owner to the issue and offer to help?

It’s a very easy thing to do! The benefits of good will are immediate and long-term…and that’s something that no “make money online” tool can ever produce (good will, that is). It comes from the heart instead.

Enjoy!

Barbara
