This Sunday nite, I’m thrilled that @ProBlogger (Darren Rowse) will be joining us to co-host #Blogchat at 8pm Central. Darren’s topic will be helping us learn how to monetize our blogs, and the schedule will break down like this:
From 8:00-8:30 PM Central – How to create blog content that can be monetized. We’ll talk about how you decide what to sell (ads on your blog? sponsored posts?), and whats your strategy for creating this content. So if you’ve got questions about deciding what type of content to try to sell, this is when we’ll be discussing it.
From 8:30-9:00 PM Central – We’ll talk about ideas for selling existing content, such as, how do you create an ebook from existing posts, or repurposing existing content in new forms in order to sell it. So if this is more what you are interested in, make sure you get your questions in here.
Darren will stay as long as he can, but as you can imagine, this #Blogchat should be extremely busy, and could be our most active ever. So Darren will get to as many questions as he can, but won’t be able to get to everyone’s questions. So my advice is if Darren doesn’t answer your question the 1st time you ask it, to try again after 9pm, when the crowd thins out a bit.
And please make sure you are following Darren on Twitter, and subscribed to his blog, if you aren’t already.
Hope to see you all on Sunday nite!

I dont do #chats as they’re generally annoying, but THIS one will be worth it! – maybe someone can tell me a good way to ‘save’ a twitter #chat
Mack Collier says
Randy I’ll send out a link to the chat’s transcript after the 1st hour. You can view all the tweets at that link!

Hey Randy,
This is an easy tool to accomplish what you’re looking for:

That way you don’t have to write any special “scripts” to do it.
Cheers,

Time zone?
Mack Collier says
#Blogchat starts at 8pm Central! Thanks for the reminder, just updated the post to reflect this.
Pam Chalkley says
I figured that out after I posted and my commented showed up two hours after my local (Pacific) time. 🙂
Paula Lee Bright says
Another way is: Mac Collier sends out the URL for the transcript of the chat. Bookmark it and take all the time you need to go over it to get the points you want, and any folks you’d like to get to know.
Good luck!
Michele Price says
Mack you do a great job bringing in co-host to uplevel everyone’s experience on our fav topic blogging.
Love learning from you so we create better twitter chat ourselves at #SMmanners.

Awe man! I missed it! When is the next one, I would like to join in, maybe reserve a spot too! It sounds as though you were quite crowded!
