Video interview w/ Yaro Starak

Over 3 years ago I stumbled upon a great blog, it was entrepreneurs-journey.com run by Yaro Starak, in my opinion, he is a one smart entrepreneur/blogger with great content and wealth of blogging information, I decided immediately to follow his blog’s feed.
It’s not a hidden fact that I basically started blogging seriously because of Yaro’s influence, every time I spoke in a seminar or did any phone or online consultation I normally mention his blog as a great source for businesses and bloggers information.
Yaro started a blogging school called “Blog Mastermind” and this year Yaro is on a journy world wide promoting what he called “Conversion blogging” which I think was a very smart idea for blogging for profit.
I couldn’t beleive that Yaro was in my home town of New York.. My own backyard! I immediatlly got in touch with him and we met in a local cafe there and that’s where the video interview took place.
This interview is full of information (Just about the best 5 minutes of information in a video) I will share the tips in this video and more about Yaro’s work in another post soon, for now, pay attention and enjoy this video:

Interview with John Chow (Tips on Affiliate & blogging)

Here is one of the most important interviews I have ever done, John Chow agreed to meet me in Boston and agreed to share with us his greatest tips for affiliate marketing and for blogging. Being the great blogger that he is, I advice any blogger to listen to these tips. Here is the video:

There you have it from the great one himself.
When you sign up with an affiliate program, make sure to contact your affiliate manager and ask them to increase your commission rate, 9 out of 10 times they will do it. (That is true, I did that with one company before. Now I am doing for all the other companies I am with).
Also when blogging, do it like John said, be passionate about it, don’t do it because you have to or because you want to make some cash fast, that never worked before and will never work for anyone.
When I speak in seminars about blogging, I always mention 3 names:
Darren Rowse, John Chow and Yaro Starak. As some of you may already know my plans for an online school for blogging/Online marketing/Web 2.0 tools/Social networking (Coming up soon), I will make sure to showcase most of their work as bloggers, but for now, please enjoy the video above 🙂

Blog Action Day 2008

Last year I was one of 1000’s that participated in blog action day. This is another reason that I love blogging for, taking actions, and voices heard.
Aside from being an active member on www.one.org and also a very active member on a group called “Stop global warming: on facebook, I decided to take action with this years blog action day, to fight poverty world wide (Very close to one.org), I am doing everything I can and I encourage you to take action as well, at least you can spread the word about it.
I hope to see you all reaching out to your goals.
