Thank you for linking to my post! I’m glad you liked it.
Hi Lawrence,
It’s clear that you put some serious time into this list. Thanks for your efforts.
Hi Lawrence,
You have posted 100 great resources. I’ve read some of them (although they are not written by you!). I will come back to read more of them.
Well, basically what I do with blog is the same as you have done. I receive more than 100 new articles every day in my article directory (www.ArticleHighlight.com). I choose 1 - 2 quality articles to share with my readers. Sometimes it takes more than 2 - 3 hours of reading so many articles before I get one that can be posted on my blog.
If you know what an article directory is, you wouldn’t say that the articles are not written by me. So far they have been submitted by more than 1000 authors. Most of them are online entrepreneurs who try to market their businesses using a method called “article marketing”.
I hope this will clarify what you probably didn’t understand (that the articles are not written by me).
Regards,
ArticleSpecialist
Great list. Thanks for choosing one of my articles. - Bookmarked page for reference

@ArticleSpecialist: thanks for your clarifications on ‘article marketing’. This is indeed a new area to me. I guess it’s just that we have different preference/style/approach in providing value to our audience. I do respect your choice of approach; it’s just different from mine, that’s all.

Glad to be here,
My name is Ethan Suplee , I just signed up. I hope, I am posting in the right section, and my apologies, if I posted inappropriately,
moderators, please move this post accordingly.
Not so long ago, I found information about
investment funds, that are rarely published on
official investment resources. The earnings, which people could
receive by joining in such private clubs, appeared
shockingly high at
first, but as I learned more reviews about them, I started to
invest. These days, I consider
myself to become the successful
entrepreneur. My next step, is marketing field, so, I
established the blog, which
outlines detailed information
about selected investment websites. To see my current picks, here is the link.
I would be happy to receive
everyone’s feedbacks.
