I have started a new series on our 4FabMoms blog. It's a series that has actually been a lot of fun to do. It's called Thankful Tuesday's and each week I share something that I am thankful for. I have to admit that some weeks are easier than others, but in the end, I can always find something to be thankful for!
Today I highlighted that I am thankful to be home with my daughter. I think one of the greatest gifts is to be home with your children and I am grateful that home-based businesses allow us moms to do just that!
As I have done on my other blog, I would like to open this post up for comments. It would be great to read what everyone else is grateful for! So share away:)

Are You Using Google Adsense?
If you are not using Google Adsense on your blog or site, you are missing out on free money. Even if you only earn a few dollars or cents a day, who can pass up free money.
Google Adsense is free. You sign up for a free account at google (if you have blogger, you already have a free account) and you sign up. There is a tutorial to teach you how to do it and the benefits of having adsense on your site or blog. Then you place the code on your blog or site and let it go. You make money whenever anyone clicks on the ad.
Now don't think you can go it and click on it everyday and earn cash. That is not allowed. Just place the ads and let it happen naturally. As your traffic grows, so will your revenues.
This is great even if you have a mom blog and aren't really looking to earn tons of income. If you earn $100 over the course of a few months or even a year, you are $100 ahead of where you were already- and for doing nothing more than posting in your blog. And my daughter's blog is adding to her college fund, bit by bit!
Sign up for your free account and get started making multiple streams of income!

Did you forget to ask this question?
Today I have the privilege of having Denise Willms as a guest blogger. I first met Denise through the Smart Moms Professional Series when she taught us how to "Write Articles for Traffic." Denise did a terrific job and I learned a ton. Since then I have joined her article submission site, WAHM-Articles.com and have seen a stream of new traffic because of it.
Because Denise had so much to share and has experienced success at working from home, I just knew she would have more valuable information to share with us!
Did you forget to ask this question?
Article marketers – those who write and submit articles as a means of driving traffic to their websites – usually find it works quite well.
If you've tried it yourself, you may have watched your stats go up... and your new visitors leave soon after. You might have realized there was one important question you forgot to ask.
How do I keep all this traffic coming back?
Sound familiar? You’re not alone. But there’s a way to keep those new visitors coming back for more.
First-time visitors don’t necessarily become buyers. They may not even become repeat visitors. They already have a whole list of bookmarked sites they frequent. Why add yours to the mix?
A slight twist on the technique you used to get them to your site in the first place can keep them returning. In other words, providing quality content that gives information they need.
Think about a particular site you visit regularly. Why do you keep going back? Odds are it’s because, in some form or other, it has content that you just can’t find anywhere else.
While the articles you submit to directories and groups might be published all over your corner of the ‘Net, you should keep some of your best articles for your own exclusive use. Make sure they’re extremely relevant to what your target market wants and make them easy to find on your site.
Once your visitors know you have good quality content they can’t get anywhere else, they’ll start coming back for more. With every visit comes another chance to turn them into buyers.
