Easy-to-Use Blog Navigation Bars Added

The new blog navigation bars, which appear at the bottom of blog pages, are faster and easier to use than the calendar. Readers can now see earlier posts in a blog by simply clicking page numbers.

Once it's clear that the navigation bars are working correctly, the calendar will be removed from the standard template. If you have a blog with a custom template, don't worry; the calendar will continue to work properly.

Faster-Loading Blogs

Blog pages now appear more quickly, since post information is accessed more efficiently. In addition, a "See other blogs in this category" link has been added to blog pages, and some minor cosmetic bugs have been fixed throughout the site.

Want to Subscribe? Now, You Don't Need to Set Up a PayPal Account First!

Since the Network is growing so rapidly, we've set up a new system that allows us to accept credit cards directly.

As a result, subscribers no longer need to set up a PayPal account first. And, we now accept credit cards from all countries, not just the ones supported by PayPal. Thanks to the use of secure pages, all credit card information is kept safe while being transmitted over the Internet.

This improvement makes it even easier for anyone to subscribe to Blogging Network. Of course, PayPal is still available as an option for subscribers who prefer to use PayPal.

Blogging Network Update

Thanks to word of mouth, subscriptions are steadily increasing, so writer earnings are up 89% in the second month. The home page shows the total to date. We’ve also set up a referral bonus of $5 per new subscriber.

The best part is the growing writer lineup. Along with familiar bloggers, we’re seeing many new additions to the blogosphere as a result of Blogging Network. Here are some of the writers:

Now that the site has been successfully tested in the real world, we’re preparing our first press release, which will focus on writers. If you know anyone who might be interested in writing, please let us know.

It felt wonderful to send out the second set of earnings to writers. With readers already paying hundreds of dollars, the marketplace is working perfectly. Like eBay, Blogging Network is giving us more choices at fair prices, and restoring power to each of us.
