Who Wants To Run HotBlogTips.com?

image - HotBlogTips.com thumbnailI’ve been planning this post for a while now. I have far too many blogs to run and still maintain everything else so it’s time to start scaling back. I’ve been dropping domains (letting them expire) little by little but HotBlogTips.com is simply too good to just drop. I have a blog setup that is running a multi-author theme and it’s just waiting for the attention it deserves.

I’m not selling the site or giving it away. I’m going to retain ownership of the domain and simply hand the reigns over to someone that has the time and drive to make a go of it. I’m looking for someone that has experience running a successful blog and can see the potential in Hot Blog Tips. See BloggingTips.com to get an idea of what I wanted for HotBlogTips.com. In fact, the multi-user theme on HotBlogTips.com right now was originally designed for BloggingTips.com

So if I am not selling or giving the site away then I must be looking for someone to hire, right? Wrong. I will hand the site over to a qualified and trustworthy blogger that can run and monetize it in any way they see fit. If the site makes a hundred a month, they make a hundred a month. If it makes two thousand dollars then that’s theirs too. All I want from the deal is a footer link (hyper-linked and do-follow) to my main site and the word of the new admin that they will do their best and not ignore it like the last admin did (that would be me).

I will even host the site free of charge or the new admin can move it too their own server, it doesn’t matter to me. If it starts getting too big for my server then we will need to move it or the new admin will need to pay for hosting.

I have already tried something similar with HateMyShape.com I partnered with Brenda Franzo and she’s doing a great job. She runs the site the way she wants and, in her case, I run AdSense on the site. I don’t see much potential in running AdSence on Hot Blog Tips so I’m just asking for a link.

Later on I will be making similar offers for eZinePress.com and SocialExchanger.com. Eventually I think I’ll be saying goodbye to Extreme Ezine too but I will probably put it up for sale. I’m just thinking about it for now. I may decide to keep it once I get everything else in order.

Here’s how you get to run HotBlogTips.com. Comment below showing your interest. Convince me you are the best choice, it’s as simple as that. Feel free to include link/s to a successful blog/s you run. Experience with WordPress and CPanel would be very helpful.

We should chat soon about what I’m working on – a way for bloggers to multiply their efforts and free up their time to accomplish more.

It could be just what you need to get that site to take off. It is too complicated to explain here but I can share it via email or elsewhere. I’ve been meaning to talk to you about our blog collaboration too. You already know some of us.

Get in touch with me ayc please?

Hi Dennis, I would still have my personal blog, Ad Tracking site, all my AdSense sites and dozens of domains. I’m re-evaluating even those. I’m not going anywhere though. In fact, I will have more time to visit and comment on blogs. If I wasn’t spread so thin I would have more traffic and much better PR on what sites I have left. What I  really need is more time to build my Online Business Consulting business.

As far as the Extreme Ezine, the more I think about it the more I want to keep it. I think I can give it more attention once things settle down. I was thinking about trying what Yan with Blogging Tips for Beginners did by having guest bloggers take care of the content but it may not come to it.

I gotcha and totally undwerstand, I’ve done it and doing it somewhat now by moving blogs.

Umm, as awesome as Yan was, I wouldn’t follow the footsteps…if I get 1 post per month from TSB in my mail now, it’s a lot….and not very good posts either.

Sounds like a great deal Brian. I wish I had the time to take it on, but as you know I have more than I can handle myself.

Make sure you check the credentials of any blogger who applies for the job, and I would still keep admin control of it as well.

Brian,

I am interested in your offer, I am losing my domain because I don’t own it and it has really taken off so I want to continue the growth. I have some plans for products and services on blogging topics and would be more interested in being able to offer those for monetization rather than ads other than maybe a few affiliates.

I write daily, and am involved in several collaboration blogs right now as well as my online fence store.

Shoot me an email if your interested if you would like to see more of my work and discuss further.

Keith

This is a good opportunity for someone who has the time to run another blog (unfortunately, I don’t). It saves you the hassle of setting up the site and coming up with the foundational 20-30 posts. I wish you luck in finding a good admin for the site! -Danny
