Happy Birthday Shanker Bakshi dot Com

Shanker Bakshi dot Com turns a two years old mature guy today (Cheers!). It was an interesting, learning and very exciting journey. So far so good and I have enjoyed every bit of it thoroughly.  Off course during this period I made “Some” money (IF not BIG MONEY), learned so many new lessons about blogging, blog traffic, making money, how to establish a blog brand and many other techniques. Life is a journey in which you always keep on learning new things and experimenting with new ideas. There is still couple of things which I need to fix. This Blog’s PR is one of them.

I take this opportunity to thanks those that helped me to blog better. “Mostly Blog”ger don’t feel like sharing the source of their information and knowledge, bad thing, I think you must give credits to all those who lend a helping hand.

This is not the complete list but I would like to mention people who really help me out to get closer to my dreams.

John Chow

John chow: We share talks over IM, he always be there to help me and guide me whenever I dice a question before him.  Much has been said about him on this blog. He is my mentor and will be a guru for eternity. Thank you John for what you did to make me who I am.

Abhinav SonkarAbhinav Sonkar: Tell me one thing; do you like the design of this blog? Abhinav is the guy who made this blog look super cool, Isn’t it? I pointed him to one blog and ask him “hey abhi, can you make my blog look like that”. In an hour or so he came back to me with some codes and tweaks and made this blog look better than I could imagine. This passionate guitarist taught me how to install WordPress locally, How to integrate google Custom search in a blog theme and many other valuable implications. Thanks very much Abhinav for sharing your tech “GeekNess” on my blog. You are an amazing guy.

Yan Susanto

Yan Susanto: He is really a great guy, recommends that “Thau Shall Blog”, educate me on how to use social media sites to generate traffic, how to get backlinks and so many other important things about blogging. Recently we were discussing how to choose right keywords to target organic search engine traffic.

MarleneMarlene: The girl who inspired me to switch over my blog from shankerbakshi.blogspot.com to self hosted WordPress back in November 2007. Thanks Marlene for giving me the sheer beauty and wonderful blogging tool WordPress. Your command on blog designs is incredible. Thanks for being there all the time.

I should also mention here that Ajith Prasad of Dollar Shower has made a SEO study on this blog recently and suggested some fixes which also means that I need to make some changes in the blog theme very soon.

The above list is not complete; there are so many other people who help me in one or the other way during my blogging voyage in last couple of years.

Here are some big accomplishments during last year in images:

    I remember you wrote about you started blogging the same birthday as Michael Jackson’s. It’s so sad he’s no longer with us now. But life must go on for us and so with this blog. Two years is a very young age, yet your blog has gone all the way to the top on Google’s search. It’s awesome! Happy Birthday, SBDC!

    Where’s my share of the cake? :-)

    PPC is a bit risky stuff sanjay, nothing is wrong if i’ll say that lot people have burned their hands while playing with it. Don’t jump into this PPC thing until you are confident and have gain some basic knowledge about it. I will advise you to first make some money spend it learning the things from big giant like Amit Mehta and Anik Singal of PPC Classroom, learn some inside tricks and then go for it. Its sure that you will loose some money in your initial campaigns. But as they say – You loose some you win some. So if you are passionate about it then learn the stuff and go for it.

    thanks for reply Mr. Bakshi,

    amit mehta and anik singal is charging too much for the ppc which is around US$ 97.00 per month and i received the mail in which they said that they are raising the price to US$ 397.00 per month. there is an another sit which is called http://www.ppc-coach.com which charge US$ 50.00 per month and have forum(which is considered to be the best, according to review), video, audio, tools which provided by ppc-coach.com and coaching itself. and i have seen so many review about this site ppc-coach.com. what do you think that is that anik and amit is too ahead of ppc-coach.com. because they are charging very high. what do you suggest to me if i have only US$ 500.00.

    Happy birth day!
    You have indeed become a guy who understands the significance of being grateful. I believe its unbelievable tool available for free. Sure, you are using it for greater rewards. I know, for sure, from kinda content I read on your blog that coming years would be even more rewarding, right?
