Today we’re meeting Lori at Blogging with Cents. I know what you’re thinking. You’re sitting there thinking, *yawn* another blog about blogging. Does the internet ever change? Well, I’m happy to report that it does.

Where to begin? Lori, the author of this blog wears many hats. Wife, mother, rancher, crafter, cook, blogger. Oh yes, I said rancher. Lori, her husband and their 3 boys live on a ranch in the middle of the nowhere. The closest town to them is 2 hours away. With all this going on Lori still manages to stay on top of what’s working and not working in the blogosphere.

Blogging with Cents gives practical blogging and internet marketing advice in plain English. No fancy jargon. No tricky techniques. Just great advice about making money on the internet. The information you’ll find and learn is going to be of value on every single page of this blog. Lori points us towards tools to build a better blog. There are so many things out there for bloggers these days it’s hard to know what’s helpful and will save you time versus what’s just taking up your valuable virtual real estate.

Looking to dabble in search engine optimization? You’ll find 5 Must Use SEO Tools to Reach the Top very helpful in your quest for great rankings. Again, I want to stress that this is plain ole’ easy to understand English for every day bloggers. You’ll find plenty of helpful tips scattered throughout the postings on Blogging with Cents, all of them just as valuable as the last one.I have to say that Lori is good at finding new and interesting things too. I first about the Photo Dropper plugin on Blogging with Cents, I hadn’t heard of it before that. It finds creative commons pictures in flickr based on a keyword search, and inserts them into you blog for you. I didn’t even know a plugin could do that. Sure, you could go to flickr and search yourself, and check the permissions, but think of the time you’ll save having that feature built into you blog. A simple easy way to brighten up your blog by adding pictures to your posts without having to go to a lot of trouble to get it done. Awesome.I could talk all day about this blog, I really and truly could. But that would keep you from getting over there to check it out for yourself. Get moving. Do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars. Go, read, absorb, learn, blog.
