Recently, I watched a video that brought tears to my eyes. I seem to have a soft spot for the underdog. This guy(Paul) is a mobile phone salesman who has hidden his talent from the world his whole life. Watch and be amazed my friends. Paul, you are truly brilliant!

The internet is an amazing machine. It provides information at lightning speeds and creates money making opportunities. Why can’t I grasp it? I must be going at this blogging thing all wrong. I know you need links to get your site ranked in the search engines and to get links you need to provide quality content for users. You see, the quality content is what I lack. Does anyone have any ideas or strategies on how this is done? Who am kidding? No one will tell you “the secret”, I know you have to figure it out on your own. I’ve lost the fire and passion to blog. I need an inspiration… anyone??
Shoemoney has a sweet post about a creative way to use Google and email spam. It’s a good enough post that Matt Cutts even chimes in his 2 cents.
This has nothing to do with making money online but everything to do with hilarious:
This great new blogging network called BlogRush has given me the boost I needed to pull my head out, post to this blog and rethink the whole blogging phenomena! As you can see, I started this blog in Spring of 2006 under the instruction of Mr. Shoemoney himself but got sidetracked doing other internet marketing stuff i.e., affiliate marketing & email marketing. Well, it has been over a year and I’ve learned a ton of new tricks, made more money than ever, but also spent more money than I’ve ever made before in my life. I certainly have paid big time for this bachelors of internet marketing degree and then some. Back to this whole BlogRush thing…, as you can see in the top right corner, a list of other blogs are displayed in the BlogRush Widget that relate to the topics of this blog. This is where it gets crazy…, I can’t even begin to explain it so go here to check it out for yourself. Feels good to be back.. anyone know a good blog designer??
Showing a little love at the local Max Muscle sportin’ the Shoemoey Shirt!! I know that word on the street says shoemoney will represent at the UFC fights having Matt Hughes and company wearing shoemoney shirts. Well, I did the next big thing. Got my picture with the top fitness model and cover girl (Priscilla Tuft), Former UFC Champion (Randy Couture), and UFC Heavyweight Champion (Tim “the Mainiac” Sylvia). Hey shoemoney…, can you top that? Oh yeah, I forgot you have a picture with Paris Hilton.., oh well.
Shoemoney has a webcast radio show on webmasterradio.fm every Tuesday at 5p.m. central time called “Net Income.” He discusses different ways of making money online. He asked me to be his co-host for his show on PPC(pay per click advertising). If you would like to listen to the show go here.
It was a great experience! We took callers and questions from the webmaster radio chat room on PPC and other contextual advertising strategies. In the future, I hope to be Shoemoney’s wingman and further my knowledge of this incredible profit generating business.
MSN Adcenter is good for buying low cost clicks for your advertising campaigns, but when you need help, forget it! One of my campaigns’ max cpc was somehow changed from 5 cents to $47.84 per click due to a software malfunction. Due to this error I spent thousands of dollars in one days time, they tried to charge my credit card for this horrendous amount and my card was declined. Due to my card being declined my campaigns stopped running and any “priviledge” I had in pausing campaigns or editting them, was suspended. Okay, you can just smell how upset I am right now. It has been over 5 days, I’ve emailed and talked to 5 different people claiming they will look into this matter meanwhile, my ads are not running, I cannot make any money, and I have this huge debt to pay until they credit my account back. This could be months. MSN has some serious issues to work out until I can totally trust them again. What really stinks is that I need them for the low cost clicks. Google just plain costs too much(the rich get richer over at Google) Anybody else have problems with MSN?
Michael Cheney out of the U.K., has released his very informative video series on making money with adsense. I must say, his strategies are simple, but extremely effective. There are 9 videos plus bonus features that walk you step by step into making money with Adsense. Once I ordered them, I spent the next 4 hours watching, taking notes, and implementing his techniques into my sites. Within, a few days, I DOUBLED my earnings! Powerfull stuff here my friends. The video series is $87, but well worth the investment. If you would like to check ‘em out go here: Adsense Videos.
I’ve you’ve been reading my blog, I started out making crap online, but now am pulling down, well much more! I love the internet!
Warning- These videos will excite you to the point where you will not be able to sleep!!
So, I’ve been experimenting with contextual advertising on a few of my sites and decided to give chitika a try. I’ve learned to fire and forget different money making strategies rather than micro manage every hour of the day. Honestly, I had forgotten that I’d integrated chitika. I just checked my account (for the first time in over a month) and baam! Looks like I need to take this idea a little more serious. Instead of just showing contextual advertising like google, yahoo, or now msn does, chitika puts a little mini-mall in place of an ad showing pictures and prices of specific products related to your site. It’s a beautiful thing. If your looking to try something different give chitika a try.
