I picked up Guerrilla Marketing on the Internet a couple weeks ago, after seeing a recommendation for it from Nickycakes somewhere on Wickedfire. To be honest, I just recently started reading books regularly again. If there’s something I feel I must read I usually find a digital copy of it somewhere rather then spending the money on a book. Usually I’m just too preoccupied with work to read. But...

This is probably a really obvious tactic for some, but I just thought of it a few days ago, and I’m anxious to share it. Let me first say that the traffic is pretty limited, especially for me, using it in a relatively small city, but I figure the links are worth it alone. The PR for the main city page I’m working with is a PR4, just 2 clicks away from my link. And the Topix homepage is a whopping...

If you’ve been following the WebWriMo challenge, you know that it wasn’t as successful as many hoped to be. There are no official numbers from the rest of the group just yet, but to my knowledge, only one person completed the challenge, and that person is InternetAuthor of Wickedfire. She joined the game much later than most of us, and kicked our asses in a couple weeks. This beer is to you InternetAuthor! As...

We as affiliates, SEOs, or whatever you may do online, are extremely fortunate that we can work the way we do; when we want, how we want, and for as much money as we want if you really think about it. Just the fact that we were able to afford a computer and internet connection at one point, so we could start our own businesses online,...

Dominating the local SERPs has been something I’ve been pondering for quite some time now. But as with so many of my projects, I never get around to them, lose inspiration, or some other pathetic excuse. The reason local SEO has always appealed to be is the added sense of security. There will always be small business in my area that are looking to expand onto the web, and I certainly believe I can help. My...

I used the following method to earn my first few bucks with affiliate marketing not all that long ago. I continue to use it today. However, the exact method I’ll explaining I no longer use because it got saturated, and the ads may not even be TV or radio on anymore. Whatever it was, I stopped making money with it and moved on. The Concept The basic stradegy is to bid on keywords that people may be searching...

Every time I start a new Wordpress based site, I usually spend multiple hours looking for an appropriate theme. Luckily I know enough HTML, CSS and PHP to modify the themes a bit. Otherwise I don’t think I’d ever get any projects completed. There’s always something like 125×125 ads, horrible coding, bad slicing, or some idiot trying to be innovative by adding a completely useless feature...
