However, you are very welcome to participate through adding a comment or posting to your own blog with a trackback here, so people who are interested can follow the conversation. We'd also be happy to add you to the authorship roles for our next event!

Thanks for initiating a terrific virtual conference. You have some very talented participants and I'm looking forward to learning from them all.

I thought your readers might like to read a couple of articles about Nick Denton, who seems to be the king of blogging and one of the few making a little bit of money directly from his blogs (mostly from advertising). He certainly knows how to use the blogging PR machine, anyway. Both Wired and Business 2.0 had articles about his blog business in June. Here are the links:

Wired: http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.06/blog.html?pg=1

Business 2.0: http://www.business2.com/b2/web/articles/0,17863,633865,00.html

I know that blogs can raise readership, traffic at websites, and help businesses get publicity. Are there any businesses out there making lots of money from blogs? How do they do it?

I've only recently started a blog for Marketing Idea Shop ( http://www.marketingideashop.com ) and it it currently being hosted by Blogspot at http://marketingideashop.blogspot.com/ . Will it make me any money? I don't know. But it's a great place to aggregate resources for my customers.
