Today I just came accross a very interesting website, BlogShares.com. It’s an interesting concept in that’s it’s like a fantasy stock trading game, but for blogs using fictional money. I don’t yet know the details, but it seems very intriguing, enough that I’ll probably give it a try this weekend.

As an added bonus, it might generate a lot of additional traffic to your blog (hence extra monetization) and potentially give you some high Google PR links to your blog. Not only that, it will definitely give you some additional exposure as people will speculate in you.

Worse case I see is that it will be fun to start speculating on which blogs will make it. And if enough of you try it, we can even start our own internal competition in the LearningCentre.com forums!

Google has just recently updated how it updates the crawl date in it’s cache. This is very handy because it lets you know when Google last took a look at your site. In the past, it would only store the last date it crawled in which something changed, now it stores the last date it crawled period.

To better explain, please check out the video by Matt Cutts below:

From now on you can purchase a lifetime membership to our members-only forums for $100. Yes, that’s only $100 for permanent access to the forums! At this time you can contact us at sales@learningcentre.com for more details, but hopefully by the end of the week we’ll have it completely automated on the website so that you can purchase it directly online.

Also, anyone who takes one of our seminars, you automatically get access to the forums without having to pay the $100 fee. That’s a great savings considering everything else you get with the seminar.

And if you’re new here, take a look at the forums. There’s already a lot of activity for only being around a week or so! You can read all the thread titles, you just can’t read their content without being a member.

Me and Scotty have been discussing quite a bit and we’ve come up with several offerings we believe you’ll like, there’s something for everyone!

Adsense, Search Engine Optimization (SEO), and Website Promotions

This is a repeat of the initial course offered here in Ottawa on September 23-24, 2006. The final registration date is September 8, 2006 so don’t delay as seats are filling up fast
for this unique opportunity!

This course will be offered at $495, which is incredible well priced considering the amount of content you get! Just look at the video testimonials we’ve received from the last seminar.

Monthly Evening Event

Once a month me and Scotty will host a Monthly Evening Event where either us, or a guest speaker, will comment on industry specific news that you can benefit from.

As an added benefit for those of you who join this group, we’re going to offer free access to the members-only forum for your duration.

This package will be offered at $25/month or for $250/year if you pre-pay (giving you 2 free months + free access to the members-only forum).

LearningCentre.com Blog

This will be free to the general public. We’ll try to post as much valuable information as we can, but precendence will of course be given to the Monthly Evening Event group.

Members-Only Forum

This will be an online forum where me and Scotty will be very active, where you’ll get a lot of latest news and there will be a lot of discussions and idea sharing. We’re very excited about this concept!

If you join the Monthly Evening Event then this will be free while you’re a part of that group. Otherwise you can purchase a membership at a very affordable cost of $10/month or $100/year if you pre-pay.

Great news, the members-only LearningCentre.com forums are now open! I’ve just finished installing and configuring these new forums today. For those of you who took the seminar over the last 2 weekends, you should expect to have your username and passwords sent to you later today or at the latest by tomorow.

For those of you who were not part of the seminar but wish to join the members-only forums, we will be offering a paid membership system shortly. Expect the details to come out on this blog as soon as we finalize them.
