It’s about time i wrote about one of my fave affiliate sites, Text Link Ads. I’ve been using them for nearly a year now and my income from them is currently around $700 per month but its increasing every month.

Web developers have been screaming out for a site like Text Link Ads for years. How many times have you seen content sites advertising completely unrelated items through amazon. This probably wasn’t because the webmaster thought that they would become a millionaire by promoting amazon on their site, it’s probably because there…

Cascading style sheets can be used internally or externally - ie. you can can add your style code to your page directly or place it in a seperate style code and link to it.

Its a very basic concept but since not everyone is familiar with CSS and since
nearly all blogs use it, i thought it would be worthwhile posting about it.

Internal Stylesheet

Here is the basic code for an HTML page.

<html>
<head>
<title>BloggingTips</title>
</head>
<body>Site content

</body>
</html>

In order to transfer files from your pc to your website you need to either use an online file manager (not practical for a lot of files) or an ftp. There are a lot of ftps out there.

Before i told you about my favourite text editor so now ill tell you about my favourite ftp.

Over the years i had used a lot of ftps but the ones i used most often was leech ftp and netfile ftp. Leech is a decent ftp but its extremely basic and profiles etc cant be saved.

Less than a year later they started offering…
