“Tweet to download” or “Like to reveal” are both common marketing techniques used on blogs and websites these days. The basic idea is that the user is asked to share a message with their twitter followers or facebook fans, and they are then rewarded when some sort of download link or other hidden content is revealed to them. The concept isn’t new, but the process of making it work can be somewhat complicated if you aren’t a coder. There are several tutorials out there that explain how to do it, but to my knowledge I’ve never seen a WordPress plugin that makes it so simple. I’ve been given the opportunity to check out a review copy of the new...

At the start of each new month I try to break down my monthly income results for the previous month – including all affiliate results and Adsense income, as well as any other news from the previous month or highlights of upcoming events and opportunities. Each month these continue to be my most popular posts. You can view all of my past income reports here. Well although this blog wasn’t around last year and I didn’t start posting income reports until January 2011, my November of 2010 was a really down month.  December of 2010 was so so and then things picked back up really strong in January.  I don’t know if the Holidays make people lazy and they don’t click ads...

“In a surprise move, the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue issued a press release and memorandum late December 1, 2011, stating that an existing statute has been reinterpreted to include a definition that states out-of-state retailers have nexus (and must collect PA sales tax) if they have affiliate marketers. The DOR stated out-of-state retailers must register to collect sales tax by February 1, 2012. We have learned some advertisers  have already begun terminating affiliate agreements with PA publishers.” In a surprise move, the State of Pennsylvania  just screwed me over. I’m still digesting what the hell this all means, but I just came back from lunch to a long list...

Well I started writing an upcoming blog post last night. I got to the point of writing a few sentences, adding some images, and writing the word “test” about 3 or 4 times as some filler while I checked out the preview to see how the layout looked. As most WordPress users have probably done at some point or another, I accidentally pressed “Publish” instead of “Save Draft”. Some time long ago I set something up that automatically tweets my new blog posts (I can’t even remember where I set it up – I think in Feedburner), so about 15 minutes later I noticed my mistake when I saw the new blog post come through on my Twitter feed. Oops! ...

I just bought 5 new domains and I plan on building 5 profitable adsense niche websites. It’s time to take some action and to be more accountable for the work that I do! In the past I’ve created a wide variety of niche sites.  I’ve created adsense sites.  I’ve created affiliate sites.  I’ve created sites geared specifically toward clickbank.  I’ve done backlinking on my own by writing articles and commenting on blogs and trading links.  I’ve paid people to write content for me on fiverr, mechanical turk, elance, iwriter, and more…  I’ve bought .com, .net, and .info domains.  I’ve paid for many different backlinking packages....
