Criticize the site you’re guest-blogging on. Yea, that’s smart (not really). What better way to help the main author, the blog, and the readers than a review? (I’m sure there are better ways, not to mention less lazy ways.)

Kevin is pretty slick with the 728×15 Google Adsense ad unit. It’s right next to the main navigation bar so you might get tricked into clicking it, which would earn BloggingTips.com some moola. However, Kevin’s slick integration doesn’t take advantage of accidental…

More and more bloggers are using in-text advertising services such as Kontera to earn extra revenue on their blog. It’s something that is frustrating me more and more.

Daniel from DailyBlogTips posted today that bloggers should Stay Away from In-Text Advertising. Leroy from Green Lama then posted about it and said that In-Text Advertising is Not Evil.
