SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — Outdoor television star Michael Waddell has been selected as honorary chairman for this year’s National Hunting and Fishing Day, set for Sept. 27.
In the volunteer role, Waddell becomes the official spokesman for the annual commemoration’s key message: Conservation succeeds only because of America’s 34 million hunters and anglers.

Do You Not Want to Join Skinny Moose Media But Still Want to Blog on Your Own Domain?
February 29, 2008
There are a lot of people out there who are very independent and want to blog on their own. Maybe they feel they can make more money on their own, or don’t want to be tied to a Network. Skinny Moose Media supports all hunting and fishing blogs even if they aren’t part of the Network. We feel that blogging for the heritage of hunting and preservation is very important. We understand not everyone want to be part of a Network so we wanted to remind people that Skinny Moose can still host and set you up with a blog for a small fee. You can check out our hosting costs here. Read more
How Can I Monetize My Blog If I am Going It Alone?
February 28, 2008
One of the key reasons people start blogs is to make some money doing it. If you aren’t joining a blog Network like Skinny Moose Media then you are going to have to learn how to monetize your blog and make the money yourself. This takes a lot of extra effort than simply writing.
But let’s not put the cart before the horse. What a person needs to do first is put content on their blog each day that carries some weight. Good keyword rich text with links to highly resourceful sites will help get your blog off the ground. Now it is time to start making money from it. Usually blogs don’t start making money until 6 months into it at bare minimum. Most take at least a year. And most don’t want to hear that. Read more
Using Text Link Ads As a Revenue Generator
February 26, 2008
I get lots of people who ask me how the Skinny Moose Media Network makes its money. The trick I have learned over time is not to put all your eggs in one basket. Also don’t settle. In other words, just because one revenue stream is bringing you a little cash, don’t assume that is the only thing for you. You should be constantly pushing the boundaries and finding out which methods are right for you.
At some point I will breakdown for everyone what income streams we choose, which ones bring us the most money, and actually some new income streams we are looking into now.
Right now I would like to talk about one of the ways we generate income and that is through Text-Link-Ads. Read more

The Skinny Moose Media and Outside Hub Strategy
February 4, 2008
The time of the outdoors not being up and current with Technology has long since passed. Thanks to our Strategic Partner and key sponsor Outside Hub (outsidehub.com) Skinny Moose and outdoor media as a whole will be up to speed with the rest of the world. Since Outside Hub has come into the picture there now is a way to reach Sportsmen in huge numbers for Advertisers. Their network now receives up to 11 million visits per month. Outside Hub has created the ultimate 1 stop shop. This is valuable not just to advertisers but to outdoorsmen that like to find fresh content and videos throughout the web as well. The front end site has both a wealth of archived relevant content and also more current teasers of articles where people can surf through their portal to find stories that interest them in fishing, hunting, and many more activities of the outdoors.
