  Mid-December 2010: on my photography site, we launched a new campaign—our first ever 12 Days of Christmas promotion. The result was my biggest month of earnings ever up to that point. The idea was simple: offer discounts on 12 products over the 12 days leading up to Christmas. I used a mix of my own ebooks and products from other photography sites with affiliate commissions. The result was massive. Not only did we see some great revenue generated, it created some lovely buzz on the site. Due to the success of the 2010 campaign, in mid-December 2011 we launched our second 12 Days of…

• Six Steps to Make Sure Your Site Is Ready to Go Viral

  Guest Blogger

  6 Feb 2012 | 6:00 am

  This guest post is by Nancy Sathre-Vogel of Family on Bikes. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Surely Google Analytics was confusing my site with another, way more popular site. There was no way my visitor numbers could be so high! And yet they were. One of my posts had taken off and was spreading like wildfire. Those viral post phenomena that happen to others were now happening to me. The first day, 17,000 visitors came to my website. The next day we topped out at 56,000. Readers were coming in droves. It was exciting. It was exhilarating. My site, viral! Wow! And then I took a…

• The secret for local marketing (affiliates and business owners)

  Jeremy Schoemaker

  9 Feb 2012 | 8:00 am

  2 months ago I put up a survey to blog readers and newsletter readers. I asked what content people were interested in that I could create from you. From that we have released software, lots of free videos, and done webinars. But one particular top we got a TON of questions on was local marketing. But it was a big mix between people who were business owners looking to learn more and people who were looking to offer services to local businesses. If you’re an affiliate looking to make money working with local business owners or if you’re a local business owner who wants a flood of…

• Why Most Affiliate Bloggers Don’t Last

  Jeremy Schoemaker

  8 Feb 2012 | 4:55 am

  Recently I got a interesting question: Shoe – How come you see all these affiliate bloggers startup,  deliver awesome content,  then dissapear into the woodwork?  I am talking about sites like Nickycakes,  bluehatseo, seoblackhat, ppc.bz and the like. That is a really good question. There are several reasons why people stop.  I would say the average lifespan of an affiliate blog is about 1 year… or 200 posts on average. When people start an affiliate blog they are super gung ho and want to show the world how smart they are.   And they are unbelievably smart……

  About 6 months ago we started a new division of ShoeMoney called Elite Internet Solutions. This is a full service internet marketing company for business in the 1 million to 100 million in gross revenue range. We don’t solicit any business. Its all been word of mouth so far. One thing that amazes me is how many businesses neglect email. We divide emails into 2 things. Retention and Acquisition. The acquisition sequence is when a person gives their email directly on the site or the data was obtained by a 3rd party. We send them a series of emails which educate them about the company,…

  I’d predicted that in 2012 someone would actually do this and here it is. Somebody finally created a system that’s almost “push button” and gets you to the top of Google’s search rankings. Here’s The Concept It takes links, and lots of them, to rank highly in Google. It takes “real” links, and not spammy bookmark links, forum profile links, etc. to rank highly these days in Google. Getting “real” links is hard… That is, unless you own all of the websites the links are placed on. Owning 1000s of Page Rank 1 and above, websites…

  I have been running ThinkComputers since 2002 and over the years we have found many instances of people stealing or copying my articles.  Most of the time it is content farm type sites that just rip entire articles, or they just rip our RSS feed and call the content theirs.  In other cases it has been review sites that steal our content and put it off as their own.  You wouldn’t think that it would happen, but believe me it does.  I’m sure if you run any type of content site it has happened to you at least once. There are some ways to stop it.  You could disable access to the RSS…

  Unless you’ve been hiding on the dark side of the moon, you know about Facebook’s IPO filing on Wednesday last week. Facebook shares are expected to sell like dim sum, and the latest figures from Wall Street put the company’s valuation at $94 billion. That’s some serious money! Mark Zuckerberg, the founder, will come out of the IPO with a net worth of about $24 billion, and he won’t be the only one to gain billions. Clearly, being the top dog in the social network niche is not a bad way to make money online. Not surprisingly, a number of challengers have come…

  Guest Blogger

  6 Feb 2012 | 9:06 am

  I have recently been writing about some of the common marketing strategies used to increase traffic to blogs and websites. I thought I should now look at a comparatively less popular form of marketing called Joint Venture. If implemented correctly, joint venture marketing can be effective in driving traffic to a site. A joint venture is an agreement between two or more persons or businesses with the purpose of forming one entity. In its basic form, joint venture marketing can be as simple as swapping ads with another person or business. How Could Joint Venture Marketing Benefit You? By…

• Essential Shifts in Online Marketing: Are You On Board? Are You Optimized?

  Lee Odden

  Is your company adaptable? Is your marketing optimized? I think most online marketers get the fact that marketing and communications on the web is a fast changing place and that most companies are structured to move at a slower pace than the digital world is evolving. Take for example, the notion of Search Engine Optimization (SEO). It’s been around for about 15 years or so and in just the past few months Google has made the most significant changes ever. Despite the crystal clear focus towards search integration with social, many companies and digital pundits are still skeptical about…

  by Mike Fleming Company owners and other business decision makers who handle a web marketing budget are given, whether it's their fault or not, too much website data that doesn't directly relate to an impact on the bottom line. What's wrong with this?  Only looking at visits and pageviews gives an incomplete story of how a site is truly performing for its customers and the company.  So, when it's time to decide how to invest, there's nothing concrete that gives confidence in where to put money.  To combat this problem, there needs to be a fundamental mindset shift to focusing…

The difference with Pinterest is the fact that it all takes place online in an environment where you can share your collection with your friends and vice versa.

Without marketing, you have no one to demonstrate the superiority of what you offer! There is a reason people build businesses in cities surrounded by people, rather than in a desert surrounded by cactus! You need people to market to, and you need customers coming in your door. The success of your business relies on how well you market your product or service first, and second by how well you deliver it. Very few businesses survive on…

• Building the Right Digital Measurement Infrastructure: Setting the Table for Big-Data

  SEMangel

  22 Jan 2012 | 11:16 am

  In my last post, I described four challenges to creating a robust digital measurement infrastructure in a real-time environment: tag-based governance that demands exhaustive pre-planning, poor intra-page data capture, lack of a robust data model, and long load latencies that make real-time decisioning impossible. Celebrus Technologies (formerly Speed-Trap) has a technology that tackles every one of these challenges. First some back-ground. Celebrus has been around almost as long as Semphonic. Founded in 1999, they are based in the U.K. and while there's a pretty good chance you…

First, I'm deeply concerned with the issues and arguments covered by the white paper: the right way to build a digital measurement infrastructure.

  Enterprise data integration is incredibly beneficial and it presents many advantages, but few enterprises ever do it the right way. According to many studies, only about 10% of all enterprises have ever performed data integration, or actively support that integration. This is mostly because data integration takes a lot of time and money, and the short-term benefits are not quite as great as the long-term ones.However, once the integration is complete, this can help enterprises better survey data and decrease costs by need less people and making it easier for workers to go through the…

I guess it sucks, but they will probably get away with it.

Then there’s Google and Bing.
