Fo those of you new to the Internet blogging is all the rage - the InternetMoneyTree is a blog! The great news is if you want your own BLOG you can have one for free - just go to http://www.wordpress.org/ and follow the instructions.

I have just upgraded mine to version 2 and it has at last got a simple WYSIWIG for writing yipppeee.

I will be talking about using BLOGs to make money with soon so keep checking the site or sign up to my mailing list.

Google have a nice feature that I hadn’t heard about until today - it’s a simple feature that allows you to have search results for your chosen term emailed to you as often as you want.

For example, if you wanted to monitor how well you were doing for the search term “making money online” you just go to: http://www.google.com/alerts type in the search term “making money online” and put in your email and of you go.

It’s a great way to see how well your doing, or perhaps how well your competition is doing too. Also you could use a site: www.yourdomain.com search to see when Google has indexed your Website which is always useful to know!

A few days ago Google increased the size of the font for the adwords adverts down the side of their search results. This is good news for advertisers as there ads stand out that bit more but sadly it does show the Google is paying more and more attention to money.

Naturally they have shareholders to please now so more clicks on paying advertisers ads than search results would be a good thing hey.

Still, some advertisers are reporting a higher CTR (Click Through Rate) which is great for them.
