Introduction

Actually “quality splogs” isn’t the right word. Cause splogs are generally seen as blogs with text you didn’t write yourself. But in this tutorial we will write a part of the blog post, so that it is unique and handwritten.

When this guide is finished you will have a small sized network of quality splogs that attract search engine traffic and will be accepted by quality blog directories. This network will bring you a stable income.

The main benefits from quality splogs compare to splogs are:
- quality splogs contain handwritten text.
- because it contains handwritten text it is accepted as normal blogs by quality blog directories.
- and again because it contains handwritten text you will get far more and better search engine traffic.
- and because you put effort in these blogs you will get easier link trades.
- and because you can change your blog posts you can optimize the blog post so that it will convert (bring in $$) better.
- a basis to a stable income.
- unlimited content for your blog.
- and there are many more.

The tools we will be using are:
- Gallery2Blog ( http://www.adultblogresource.com/gallery2blog/ ), this will convert a free hosted gallery list to blog post. In the middle of this process you will be able to add handwritten text to the blog post.
- Your own hosting or Thumblogger ( http://www.thumblogger.com/ ) or SensualWriter ( http://sensualwriter.com/ ). Gallery2blog directly supports thumblogger and sensualwriter, you will need to get a wordpress plugin for your own hosting.
- A pack of beer. How this might come in handy will be explained another time.
- Some evenings.

Because i can’t change this post after 15 minutes i have setup the following page:
http://www.adultblogresource.com/gallery2blog/np/

When i post a new part of this tutorial in this topic i will add a link to the above url. This way you don’t have to dig through tens of pages just to find the content that is needed for this tutorial.

The steps for today:
1. Get a gallery2blog account and look around, don’t worry if you don’t understand it.
2. Place a link to gallery2blog on your webmaster page (this is the only requirement for gallery2blog). If you don’t have a webmaster page, then just skip this step and wait till you have a couple blogs.
3. Get your self some hosting or go with thumblogger or sensualwriter.
4. Go and party wild this evening, cause you will be seeing yourself behind the computer on many other evenings.

Feel free to ask questions if you have any. And lets hope this will be your final breakthrough in the blogging world!

Planned Hardware Upgrade at Thumblogger

Some of the hardware of the thumblogger server will be upgraded tomorrow (Friday, 07/13/07) somewhere between 2am – 4am CDT (which is 8am to 10am GMT). The upgrade will likely take less then 30 minutes.

I will post a message when the exact time is known.

It will hopefully make the thumblogger server even more faster!

Porkolt player at thumblogger

The porkolt flash player seems to be badly programmed/made. It seem to make a extra request to the server when a player is displayed. This means that when you have 30 players on the frontpage, 1 single visit of a surfer generates a whopping 36 requests to the server instead of the normal 1 request.

I would suggest you try contacting porkolt to see if they can fix their player. The extra requests all have the word “undefined” in it, which is often caused by not correctly written javascript/flash code.

Your own Domain Name at Thumblogger.com

Just a short message to notify that you now can have your own domain name for a thumblogger blog.

The steps to follow are simple:
- login
- select a blog
- go to “Options” section
- go to “Domain name” tab
- and read the instructions

That should do the trick!

Linkdump program that can run on thumblogger?

It can be done, but it is very dirty
Dumping of links can be done using the ‘add comment’ form. Create a new blog post every week/month and put a link on the warning page. This way the warning page will display links directly to a blog post which shows the blog post and all comments.

When you choose a WP/blogger template you will be able to customize the page with blog post and comments to your own needs, for example you can hide the blog post and make the comments look like a link dump.

Make sure that you allow links in comments and enable guests to post.
