How Thoof Got It's Name
2007-08-07 18:18:00
I remember way back in grade school, around the mid-70's. I loved recess and getting together with the guys to play some tackle football. Now, I was never an athlete, but did love getting out there and trying. Because I wasn't the best, I always was last to be picked, but that's another post and a few more therapy sessions. Anyway, there were times when it got pretty rough out there. Our bodies pumping with testosterone, we would huddle up and plan our attack.One time in particular, I'll never forget. It was the last play before the bell would ring and recess was over, so this play had to be good. Hike! I went long for the pass. If I caught it, I knew that I would be able to make the touchdown. I felt it in my youthful bones. I'm not sure exactly what ended up happening, but just remember that football coming at me with the speed of a bullet. Somehow it went through my hands and forcefully hit me square in the stomach. I mean, this one was a bullet from a gun! THOOF!! It took t...

The Need For Search Engine Optimization
2007-08-02 22:38:00
As search engines get smarter, the need of search engine optimization services to move along with them is essential. SE's are on the lookout for reality. They are focused on keyword-rich content, rather than the Black Hat tricks of keyword stuffing and the intense reconfiguring of META tags. They're main goal is to give the people want they want and that is traffic-hungry content.Still, as businesses grow and their web sites follow suit, there may be a need to hire a third-party search engine optimization company who can keep up with the ever-changing algorithms of the engines. Natural search engine optimization is a must. It seems as if there is an almost daily dance that they do. Pages are ranked and then dropped for no obvious reason. You need to know that your web site is on solid ground. SubmitAWebsite.com is in the business of search engine placement.Delving into your web site and conducting a thorough keyword analysis, they can then optimize it with the proper coding and de...

Walmart's Affiliate Program Now Sucks
2007-06-22 16:40:00
When you're in the business of working online, having multiple streams of income is vital. One day something may be up and another, it may be down. A plan B is something you want to have. Walmart is case in point. Their affiliate program now sucks, big-time!A recent email went out to all Walmart affiliates concerning pay-out changes. If you're an affiliate of theirs, this is a must-read. Affiliate sales of electronics went from a 6% to a 1% payout, clothing from 12% to 4%, books and photo from 8% to 1%. That is absolutely ridiculous! Anyone who knows anything about affiliate marketing, should know that a program that pays you 2% or below is not worth the effort, especially if you're talking high-ticket items such as cameras and electronics. This will tick off a lot of their affiliates.If you're a Walmart affiliate and you didn't know about this, look for the email in your Junk Mail folder or Trash. Don't spend another dime on PPC campaigns to promote a Walmart product that you...

PayPerPost and StoresOnline
2007-06-21 23:10:00
I love blogging for money using PayPerPost. The one rule I have for myself, though, is that I must believe in the product or service I'm telling about and know that it's not going to harm my readers or my reputation as a honest business person. It is does, I don't care how much I would make for the post. I simply will not do it.Recently, the company, StoresOnline, has been offering opportunities for PayPerPost users (Posties) at a whopping $38.50 for a 50 word post. Now, that's some good money. Although that is quick and easy cash, I refuse to promote StoresOnline.StoresOnline hold nation-wide, all-day workshops, providing information about how to get started with an online business. Now, some of the information is good (I've been to one here in Seattle), but the product they are ultimately promoting is not. In fact, it's a huge scam. They offer over-priced, web site's "in-a-box" that they promise will make you tons of money. When I say over-priced, I mean a couple thousand a...

PayPerPost Receives $7 Million In Funding

Here they grow again! PayPerPost is a company I've been promoting and personally enjoying for months now. If you're a blogger, one great way to monetize it is to join up with PayPerPost.

This is an enormous gift and is sure to push the company even further than it could have imagined. Being a Postie myself, I'm expecting some terrific things to be passed along. I think that we're going to see enormous growth. I'm pretty pumped about it. The question remains, where should that money go to? Maybe expand the hardware, maybe into promotion and advertising. Maybe give it to me! hehehe. I guess you could call it a matter of blog ethics.Regardless of what they decide, I'm pretty certain it will be a smart move with their supporters in mind.
