Cyber Monday, StumbleUpon, and SEO for Firefox Updates

Friday, November 28th, 2008

If you’re out today shopping and facing the “black Friday” crowd, all the best to you; however, if you wait, apparently come Monday you’ll be able to find a ton of even better bargains online. (more…)

Jazzing Up Your Advertising

Friday, November 21st, 2008

I’ll be the first to admit it, when it comes to graphics I absolutely… am horrible. Being extremely partial to the written word, my banners and buttons tend to be more than a tad amateurish.

However, today while stumbling through Stumbleupon, I came across the most amazing list of font types sure to please anyone during their creation process. (more…)

Your Crazy Idea Just Might Make You A Million Bucks

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

In our continuing thread of ways to make money online, during my recent Stumbleupon session, I ran across How 10 People With 10 Stupid Ideas Made Millions of Dollars.

Honestly, this just goes to show that the crazy idea floating around in your head might not be as nuts as you think it is… there’s money to be made by not following the mainstream marketers.

We do have some historic examples that show, how an idea of a penny made someone a Millionaire. It is not the idea, it is one’s dedication that makes the ideas a reality. Sometimes a very stupid looking idea proves so fruitful that you always wonder that “This idea worked!”

If you’ve been around a while, you’ll know the first example (not telling you’ll have to look yourself), but the other ones caught me off guard - not only simplistic but so do-able! (more…)

Maybe Your Surroundings Are Holding You Back From Bringing In Wealth Online

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

Today doing some of my favorite type of marketing, stumbling at StumbleUpon, I came across an amazing website by a lovely woman by the name of Carol Olmstead.

Whether you want to believe it or not, your surroundings very well might be the thing holding you back from collecting “wealth,” no matter what you perceive wealth to be or mean. (more…)

Adding It All Together And A New Social Media Toy

Wednesday, September 24th, 2008

It seems a bit odd writing this post because as you read it, you’re already “doing it.” And, if you take the time to comment, you’ll even be putting it into practice (and getting some free marketing all at the same time).

Social media is huge, and blogging is one of the fundamental layers to using social media marketing to your advantage.

Being a blog reader - and again, commenting - also makes you a strategic part of the whole web 2.0 marketing hubbub. (Keep reading to get the stats AND find out what new “toy” is available online… for free!) (more…)

The Rules They Are A Changing For StumbleUpon Users

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

Not that long ago, it was acceptable to stumble one’s own post to get the ball rolling in Stumbleupon. However, the rules of the game are changing as detailed here:

StumbleUpon Has Updated Its Algorithms

If by chance you have been found wanting by the SU team, never fear there is a way to get back into their good graces. Here’s just a few excerpts from the post (linked above): (more…)

The Untapped Mystery Resource Almost Guaranteed to Make You Money Online

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

Bear with us and read this entire post if you’re truly interested in the whole “make money online” thing.

The question comes up quite often, “How do I monetize my website or my blog?” More often than not, most people have done the obvious and joined a program either like Google’s Adsense or that program itself.

Joining Amazon-like programs, and pulling products out of places like Clickbank also often head the list.

Did you know that (more…)

Taking SpicyPage Whamx Jumptags and More to the Next Level

Sunday, June 1st, 2008

Special Notice: Our favorite Entrecard is currently offline due to a fire where their servers are housed. They are working to get back online quickly and we wish them godspeed! Now on to today’s post…


After almost 36 hours of debugging our wordpress theme only to discover the archives had gone missing due to incomplete data in our HeadSpace plugin, it’s time to explore other ways to take the services and websites you may (should) be using to the next level.

If you’ve read our earlier posts about SpicyPage, WhamX, and Jumptags (we have talked about more, but these three will suffice), and applied what we’ve written (signed up and started using them), we’re positive you’ve already seen backlinking to your website or blog in the search engines.

However, I’m amazed as I log into these programs how so many people are missing the boat when it comes to using these marketing tools.

What I’m discovering is (more…)
