One feature which I recently discovered in WordPress was the ability to schedule an article to be posted at a predefined future date. As my time has been very limited lately, I do not know when I will have the chance to write an article for CyberWyre. When I do have a few hours free though, I will usually try to write as much as I can in the allotted time.
The ability to schedule an article to be posted at a future time has proven very useful to me (even with this article you are reading now — it was written nearly one week before I scheduled it to be posted). As my erratic writing schedule does not always allow me to write at a normal pace, sometimes having not written anything for weeks and then one day writing five or six articles, an automatic posting schedule lets me set when each article will be made public, allowing me to sit back and know that there will be fresh content on my site when I am busy with other things.

So you’ve finally booked that two week vacation to the Caribbean and now you’re worried what will happen to your site while you’re gone — or will your readers even know that you left? Actually setting an article to be posted at a future date was simpler than I thought.
Our friends at Text Link Ads have recently announced a new service to help link potential advertisers with authors of successful blogs in a way which has not yet been done. The general theory is that as people become more and more accustomed to seeing advertisements on websites, they become more immune to them and naturally begin to block them out. But what if an entire blog entry was an advertisement in disguise?
Welcome to ReviewME, a new pay-to-review service which allows potential advertisers to browse the inventory of available blogs and select the one site which they would like to have their review featured on. The advertiser will then contact the blog author through the ReviewME website and request for a review to be written and arrange for payment.
I have just received an email from Patrick Gavin, the president of Text Link Ads, informing me that TLA has recently been purchased by MediaWhiz. Hopefully this will only bring better things for us publishers as the larger company will be able to market our text links better.
An excerpt from Patrick’s email: “Publishers: by leveraging MediaWhiz’s agency relationships and sales staff we will be able to sell more ad space on your website. We also will be adding the ability to monetize your website in new ways including: CPA offers and CPM display advertising.”
This sounds very promising and hopefully will bring higher link sales in the coming months. For those who have not yet heard of Text Link Ads, read a review of them here, or check out their website at this address (aff).
