NOT!

I was anticipating spending this weekend doing nothing, but that didn't exactly happen.  See something strange happened.  My last sale was 11/18.  Then I realized that I will never be able to take a break!

So during my travels over the holiday, I spent the driving time (my wife drove) writing articles.  I wrote eight articles on Weds, took Thurs. off and then a couple of other articles on Friday.

Today, I wrote another three articles and updated three blog posts.  I am in the process of writing another 5 blogs which I should have done today.  What really sparked all this was that I lost my 2nd position on Google for my Ezine articles.  That was the articles that was getting me all of my traffic.  So I started backlinking the heck out of it.  I think today I got another 20 backlinks between those articles.  Now I guess we wait and see!

I suppose this is all part of the game.  Learning some of the stuff that you don't read about - like LOSING your position for Ezine and Google!  What's even worse is the person that took my spot doesn't even have a live link.  I don't know if the article was edited and is waiting to be approved, but I sure would like to read WHY I lost my spot.

I feel like I'm starting from the beginning again.  Not a sale in 10 days kind of stings.  Especially when I've been averaging about a sale one in every two or three days.  Hopefully some of these backlinks will help.

I also realized that I can't rely on one source for my income.  I've started other campaigns, but sort of half-as$ed them.  This won't happen again.  I can assume my dry spell is from the holidays and losing my spot, but I can't use that as my excuse.

It is time to crank out more content and make some more money!

I hope everyone had a nice holiday!
