Affiliate Blog

  Imagine being able to post your articles, your datafeeds, and your RSS feeds to all of your blogs no matter what the blog's software platform is. That's the power of Content Farmer!

I've looked around the Internet at a few blogging softwares like Content Farmer, but haven't found one that does datafeeds as part of it's bag of tricks. That's huge!

At slighly more than $200, Content Farmer will serve as a single source dashboard to all of you blogs, making the process of operating several blogs that much easier.

Content Farmer works with WordPress, b2evolution, Blogger, Windows Live Spaces, Nucleus, Live Journal and Post by Email.

I highly recommend you get yourself a copy of Content Farmer as part of your afiliate marketing strategy. It does far more than I've listed for you here, so at the very least get yourself educated about it.

Don't cry foul! Be smarter with Google's Adsense Smart Pricing.

You can't blame Google for wanting to do right by their merchants, and try to get them the best qualified traffic possible. Google's attempt to deal with the arbitrage issue has caused some problems for their legit publishers as well.

I'm talking about Adsense Smart Pricing, which was Google's original answer to dealing with arbitrage junk-clicks. It's definitely having an effect in favor of the merchants, but guess what … it's got a wicked backlash to it that is hurting those White Hat Publishers as well. Opps!

The problem is that there are poor quality advertisers/merchants out there as well. And if your site happens to run in the same keyword set that those poor quality advertisers do, then you've got problems my friend.

What happens is the the consumer comes to your site, clicks the Google ad and lands on the crappy advertisers landing page … the consumer then bails on that crappy site immediately.

What's that mean for you? Means Google is going to punish you for sending that advertiser what they percieve as bad traffic, when you were not at fault at all. Oops! 

So, there is something you can do combat the evils of the bad advertiser syndrome.

Log into your AdSense account and then wander on over to the Adsense Setup area … look for the Competitive Ad Filter and click on to it. In the box of URLs to block, paste in a copy of this list of Bad Advertisers to be Blocked.

Do this and you'll made a big dent in the amount consumers fleeing from your Google links. Life will be good again!

You know back in January there were rumors afoot that Matt Cutts was inimating that he might be ready to try something different. Something other than being the poster boy of Google and the search engine optimization (SEO) community.

I was this quote from Matt's blog that raised the eyebrows…

"I love working at Google, but at some point my wife is going to wake up and smell the coffee. She’ll say 'Hey, we agreed we’d try this Google thing for four or five years, and then I’d get to pick what to do next. It’s been like eight years now! When do we move on to our next adventure?'"

But it's a month later and I haven't heard any more on this topic, and that's a good thing. Matt Cutts is all about ethical SEO methods, and he tries to make sure that search engine spammers aren't the ones getting the good results in Google. Although Matt and the BlackHat community hold a mutual respect for each other I think … at least, it seems that way to me.

Matt works for the quality group of Google, specializing in SEO issues. He is one of the co-inventors listed upon one of the most well-known patent filings from Google: "Information retrieval based on historical data". He wrote SafeSearch, Google's family filter. He was the first to publicly propose to use historical web site information to identify link spam.

Matt Cutt's blog is the semi-offical source for upcoming Google ranking updates. So, many of us are glad Matt's around to answer questions and give guidance. It's nice to have a guy who knows what he's talking about at the keyboard.

You can now target your PayPerPost (PPP) campaigns based on Google PR, Alexa score and topic and domain.

It's getting a lot of thumbs up from the advertisers. Honestly, I like it, but not sure if they will be able to pull it off or not. I recently ran an ad with PayPerPost where I was very detailed about what I wanted, but still a very easy post to make for the publishers. I guess because I was so specific I didn't get even one taker.

I chalked it up being a little more focused on who I wanted posts from. Like I wouldn't accept any MySpace and I wanted PR3 or higher. I asked for the bloggers to some how be related to the niche I was campaigning for. So basically, I'd already narrowed myself … and for that, I got zip.

My guess is that the publishers will need to get educated and come around to what the advertisers want if they want to get paid for posting. Otherwise, it's best to just enjoy your blog and forget the PPP aspect. PayPerPost's move towards segmentation is a clue that the blog advertising market is heading in a new direction.

PayPerPost announces the purchase of Performancing, and Performancing announces their partial acquisition by PayPerPost. All these bits and parts add up to a lot of pieces that when put together will make PayPerPost a much stronger company.The paid to post blogging model of advertising is proving to be an amazing way of spreading the word about … well, about anything and everything. It’s no wonder that PayPerPost is stretching it’s reach to include much of Performancing.

So, what parts didn’t PayPerPost buy?

According to Nick Wilson of Performancing, the purchase does not include their Partners Ad Network, nor their PFF.

What it does include is the Performancing Metric technology, the domain name Performancing.com, and the Performancing Exchange technologies.

The chat amongst the blogging community is mixed as always. It’s controversy and we bloggers live for these moments. Some are delighted that PPP will now have the type of metrics that will afford them huge amounts of blog statistics, and that’s what Marketing professionals live for. Others see any chumming by Performancing with PPP to be beyond their grasp to comprehend. But when the dust settles, what we now know as Performancing will be moving over to PPP. PayPerPost’s bloggers will now be able to track visitor stats and monitor AdSense auditing for their blogs.

The parts of Performancing not sold will find a new domain and brand identity … also something Marketing professionals live for.

Let’s face it guys, the landscape of blog advertising has changed forever. The world of professional blogging has just expanded by another 28,000 bloggers.

I received a challenge, a paid challenge no less, from TollFreeNumbers.com to try out their services and review their website on our blog. I don’t normally take up such challenges, but they gave us a free toll free number too and well, when they said they’d backlink back to the Affiliate Guild … that’s too good to pass up.TollFreeNumbers.com finds businesses Toll Free 800 Numbers and even tries to find them numbers that spell out words.My challenge was to find myself an 800 number using their online lookup tools system and then, activate it.Toll Free numbers valid in the U.S. and Canada onlyIn using the TollFreeNumbers lookup tool, I found it to be easy to use and quick to respond (I’m on DSL). After the first four attempts to find a phone number, it prompted me to email me some other possibilities for the names I’d chosen.

Where I got a little confused was how do I get one of those long numbers that says it all like the ones in thier testimonials? So, I clicked the “tips” button on the lookup tool.

What I found was a nice creative suggestions page, and what I didn’t know is that you’re not limited to seven digits. Well, you are, but the advice is to think longer if need be. The person calling your 800 number will push in all the needed numbers and few more … the result will be the same … your 800 line will ring!

I spent about an hour of my time playing with different word combinations to match the overall theme of my businesses and the one I decided upon was 888-SEO-WRITER … that pretty much sums up what I do for a living really. I writer highly targeted content for affiliate niche websites, blogs and more. Need a writer? Now, you can contact me!

You can get a free eBook from them too called Phone Numbers That Make Money.

For a limited time, 800 numbers are free to bloggers.
