Why I Won’t Represent Kim Kardashian
Dec 1st
As you know, I am a celebrity pr consultant. I handle their reputation management, and not only advise them on how to stay out of trouble, but how to repair it after they’ve gotten into it.
You may think that with her recent fraud of a marriage, that she would be the perfect candidate for my consulting services. This may be true, but I will never take her on as a client. My reasoning is this… She did this to herself.
Every time Kim Kardashian’s name pops up on Yahoo! News, there are thousands of comments saying the same thing; “When will she More >
CPA (Cost Per Action) and the Facts
Nov 17th
Cost Per Action, also known as CPA is all about conversions. I have discussed CPA in the past on this blog, and I would like to get into more detail here and now for those of you looking to make a long-term residual income.
Timelines from placement to actionThe thing about cpa is that it is tricky to make money with if you have no previous experience with it. I am always excited about getting people into cpa, and sometimes get crazy about it when talking about how it works. Just ask Alex Whalley who I introduced a few months back More >
Cemented Pitch, Blackberry Theme
Oct 9th
Just last week, my two new themes for Blackberry were published on App World. They are Cemented Pitch for Facebook, and Cemented Pitch for Twitter. These themes were created because I wanted to have Facebook integrated into my home screen of my Blackberry 9800 Torch, because the regular notifications sucked ass. With Cemented Pitch, you have your latest 4 notifications on the home screen, underneath your 6 most important icons.
I created Cemented Pitch for Twitter for those of you that are addicted to Twitter as much as I am Facebook. I also use Twitter, but not daily like I use Facebook. More >

As a matter of fact, your newsletter can bring in some serious traffic and sales when you want them. But I am here to tell you that your newsletter list is nothing compared to another important list.
The RSS Feed Email SubscribersYour most important list is the one that tells you how many people get your rss feeds. The most important of which More >

Using SEO for Practical Online Marketing
Apr 28th
Search engine optimization is more important today than it ever was. There are those out there that will disagree, but as a marketing professional, I rely on hands-on knowledge rather than industry gossip.
Without search engine optimization and search engine marketing, a company can easily end up going out of business before they get their feet off the ground. That’s why every internet marketing campaign should include the search engines.
I am providing this as a general article rather than blogger-specific because many bloggers end up getting into the niche website business. This article will benefit everyone looking for information on search engine optimization and search More >
Do You Want to Live Off of Google Adsense?
Mar 12th
Many people are working online with Google these days. Sure, it’s tougher to make lots of money with Google Adsense now, but with the right training, you can be one of the heavy-hitters.
Making money with Adsense is all about numbers, placements, and content. Combine the three, and you can quit your job in just a few months. I am NOT exaggerating on that either. You just have to be consistent in your work-flow on a daily basis, and truly believe that it can happen. If you do that, it will.
In the meantime, it’s wise to cut a lot of time off of the More >
How Much of My Marketing Budget Should Go Towards Online Marketing?
Mar 3rd
Marketing today isn’t what it used to be. As a matter of fact, online marketing has taken over in many different industries. Advertising in general is one of those industries. To understand this, take a look at the phone book. How many of you actually use on? Most people go right to Google or some other source and look up information.
I am not saying that you should have your business in the phone book, or ignore offline marketing methods completely. That would be crazy. Just because you have a ton of people moving towards the internet doesn’t mean you want More >
Are You Over-Using Video in Your Blog Posts?
Mar 1st
I have been finding a lot of blogs these days that post videos. Normally, that’s not an issue. However, when video becomes your entire blog post, you can almost guarantee that you will lose readers. I mean, you can’t really be a reader if you are watching a video now can you?
The reason for my distaste for that blogging style is that I often listen to music while I blog hop and read articles. If I am trying to listen to something else, why would I pause it to see what you are talking about?
There is a good way to More >
Tips for Launching an Established Blog
Feb 27th
Launching a blog is always exciting, but it’s also stressful because you know how tough it’s going to be establishing it. What if I told you that you can establish the blog on day #1 and it will only cost you $50?
There is this wonderful little tool I like to call Fiverr.com, where you can hire anyone to do pretty much anything for $5. Some of these things include internet marketing, article writing, etc.
If you were to hire a few people on Fiverr right after you launch your blog, you can have immediate traffic, blog comments, and backlinks before you know More >
