Day Job Killer update
Monday, March 19th, 2007Well it was an interesting 10 days! I had the flu and wanted something to play with. So I bought the ebook and just played with the first section - direct linking in amazon.
This method made me 12k for just under 1k worth of adwords…. Then nothing (ok its now $100 a day but for $50 adwords and a bit hit and miss) - it seems every niche I jumped on someone else came along and grabbing it from me - sometimes several affiliates played like a ww1 dog fight! Damn they show you how to do that later on in the book and I didn’t get that far…
I’m hoping they will burn out paying stupid money for the adwords and I can take back a few of the real meaty niches I found 
So I would say Day Job Killer was a good deal for me, maybe worth checking out.
This made me laugh

Holiday Greeting
Thursday, December 21st, 2006I wanted to send some sort of holiday greeting to my
friends and colleagues, but it is so difficult in
today’s world to know exactly what to say without
offending someone. So I met with my solicitor
yesterday, and on their advice I wish to say the
following:
Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit,
my best wishes for an environmentally conscious,
socially responsible, low stress, non-addictive,
gender neutral celebration of the winter solstice
holiday, practiced with the most enjoyable traditions
of religious persuasion or secular practices of your
choice with respect for the religious/secular
persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their
choice not to practice religious or secular traditions
at all.
I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally
fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of
the onset of the generally accepted Gregorian
calendar year 2007, but not without due respect for
the calendars of choice of other cultures whose
contributions to society have helped make our country
great and without regard to the race, creed, colour,
age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual
preference of the wishee.
By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these
terms:
This greeting is subject to clarification or
withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no
alteration to the original greeting. It implies no
promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the
wishes for her/himself or others and is void where
prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole
discretion of the wisher. This wish is warranted to
perform as expected within the usual application of
good tidings for a period of one year or until the
issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever
comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of
this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole
discretion of the wisher.

MySpaCe - can-spam rebuttle
Friday, December 1st, 2006I’ve not used myspace other than for a real profile for one of my political blogs. It just seemed the right place for it… Alas the song I had in mind never happened and so the blog died… I have been adding videos of late for my problem and that seems to be working quite well…
But as you know lots of people have been creating spam profiles.
In case you didn’t know the plan of attack was easy. Upload a pretty girl photo to a fake profile. Run a whore script to gather friends and if the photo is really HOT then you will get a lot of requests too. Once you have a good list then you can SPAM away.
There are two methods.
a) Send out a bulletin to all your friends in one hit - if done right you get instant traffic. Lots of people have many many accounts with 100k of people. I always wondered how many of those were real 
b) Comment spam your friends - create long term backlinks and some traffic if used right.
The system allowed up to 50 commenst a day - thats 50 back links a day - some on high PR sites….
OK I hear you say great how do I do that - NOOOO - its spam - you know SPAM - the stuff we spend hours deleting a day from our email, forums and blogs. Don’t do it….
Bulletins and messages are considered electronic messages (i.e the same as e-mails), they all fall under the CAN-SPAM act and you are spamming. Yes spamming. The Porn sites and gaming sites have been flooding MYSPACE with complete rubbish - so have the new flocks of IM spammers thinking they have found the next big thing.
It seems that People that sent unsolicited messages and that did not identify themselves as advertisements are brekaing CAN-SPAM rules. Yes all those guys selling you automated programs (”crawlers”) to gather address have found they are against the CAN-SPAM rules too!
Insider reports say they are now getting targeted by MySpace and that maybe MYSPACE will be getting the courts to look at some of the bigger sites. As so many were exploiting the network (MySpace) by sending out mass private messages (pms) and some were getting 1000s of friends by posting spam in the form of hot looking girls - MYSPACE started to fill up with crud pretty quick and MYSPACE got p*ssed off for some reason.
A loophole in the commenting system of Myspace profiles allowed users to spam 50+ comments on a friend’s profile with a little help from a php application. Also an online program that can spam 100+ messages to anyone’s Myspace inbox was also created.
Poker Gaming sites/Porn Sites were posting hot chicks up and getting 1000s of people to become their friends. Their pagerank/traffic went through the roof, and they benefit from the oodles of PR kudos and traffic by having the MYSPACE links. Crazy crazy stuff… who wants to think they have a hot chick as their friend to only find out its a middle aged guy in boxer shorts selling penis extendors for a living…
As MySpace grows I would be careful trying to play them. A few people have been milking MySpace and the ebooks and other rubbish products are hitting the forums - Buyer beware. Ok the PR of some pages are high, the traffic volume is great although the traffic is really hard to convert.
Many of the real profiles are young, don’t have credit cards and don’t spend a lot of money on the net. They are also the people MYSPACE wants to protect and so if you cross the line they may come after you - worse case is that they tar everyone with a large number of links as spammers… I’m sure google is looking at the problem at thier end too and so spam links from MYSPACE maybe seen as bad news…
Making money with affiliate schemes
Thursday, September 14th, 2006I made $70 dollars last month on one product just recommending it to a friend. This was one of my favourite products that I use all the time… This got me wondering as $70 from one sale is a lot of adsense clicks….
I was going to flesh out a game plan, try it out and perhaps turn it into a report to sell (still trying to make my million). Anyway before I even got started I received this free report this morning! I hate it when my good ideas turn out to just be out of date market predictions…..
Anyway this report covers it all from starting out with no website at all to using your own and some of the semi-advanced ideas. It also has a nice twist. Its not long - but seems detailed enought to get you going.
It also comes with a second report on how to get free traffic, but I would say when it comes to forums and blogs make sure you read the terms and lurk for a while or you may find you are seen as spamming.
As I said its free but the email this morning said its not around for long? No idea if that true or one if its using one of its own ideas shown in the report But his server did crash due to demand so maybe he will start charging for it at some point in the future.
You can check out the video here which is worth watching as I really like the way the presenter uses the screen. Just in case you ask - yes he is a weather man

Adsense death sentence by google?
Wednesday, September 13th, 2006Well I’m having one of those mega days; two reports one saying adsense is dead -

The first one is a public domain report (FREE!), that exposes
the reason AdSense income sucks lately, even

And finally a Game all about adsense
Reverse Polarity - Just what is it?
Tuesday, August 15th, 2006Well I got an interesting email the other day - Reverse Polarity from Leonard Payne. No real details just a chance to win a copy. A quick search found little and the website has nothing on it? What is it?
Leonard is a fellow UK IM guy and seems to be churning out an amazing series of useful products - some free - some paid - some membership - but they have all been very good
So I’m pretty excited to see what this can be
But then I noticed his sig has changed on a well know IM site:-
“When the Mode of the Music Changes - the Walls of the City Shake”
- Reverse Polarity will change the way you look at Internet Marketing - Launches 23rd August -
