As many of you have noticed, I have only had two blog posts in the last 11 days, one of which was a guest post. I wanted to make a quick blog post to let everyone know why I have slowed down my blogging schedule.
- I have been spending a ton of time learning affiliate marketing with NeverBlue Ads.
- I am auditioning for the Top Affiliate Challenge (Detailed post coming soon, for now, vote me a 10!).
- One of my new startup websites is nearing completion (I will write a detailed post letting all my readers get a first hand look before the site goes public).

This is a quick follow post about Sitehoppin, which I have previously written about.
SiteHoppin is, in short, a browser-in-a-browser which lets you visit websites based on tags and categories. You can submit your site, tag it, and rate it a five - afterwards, people that use SiteHoppin will sometimes be directed towards your site. I’ve consistently been receiving 2-3 visits per day since adding my site.

In what is most likely the largest blog contest of all time, Gyutae of WinningTheWeb.com currently has $14,575 in sponsored prizes, including a $40 paid review from my blog.
The best part is, it is actual useful products and not just garbage ebooks that are sold expensively. There is even $2100 in straight up cash just for using Gyutae’s referral link to register to the different sites. In a very smart marketing move, Gyutae will not only gain a huge promotion from the blog contest, but most of the prizes are sponsored and he will gain hundreds of referrals. He will get a lot of new readers, new backlinks, and new affiliates which will earn him money all the while he is keeping his costs down.

This is a blog reply to one of my readers posts, who has made a video in response to the building powerful links with a pr7 blog post I made.
Before I begin, I just want to say a few things. This post is not meant to be counter-hostile in any way, but I just feel the need to express my opinion on the matter and want to get my reader’s thoughts as well. I also wanted to thank Collin for allowing me to write my first rant post. I also wrote this “rant post” on the fly (at 12:58AM), so I apologize if there is any typos.

This post is a little satirical, please do not use it as solid advice. It is more of an accidental case study that happened to me and I wanted to share it with my readers.
Back on March 15th, I made a simple one paragraph post mentioning that I bought an iPhone. For those of you who didn’t know, the iPhone was one of 2007’s most hyped online product launches, and nearly every technology blog in the world was keeping tabs on iPhone news. This also means that since it was being searched for a lot, there were a lot of blackhat search engine spammers trying to steal their piece of the pie by their use of content theft. They scrape blogs around the world that mention the word iPhone and then post a piece of that blog post on their blog hoping it will rank for long-tail keywords.

Do you have a website for sale? If so, letting me know may turn that old forgotten domain into a wad of cash for you. I am looking into investing up to $10,000 this year in websites. If you want more information, visit the Sell Your Site page on my blog.

I had been using the same phone for three years and knew it was time for an upgrade. I bought the apple iphone and have to say that I absolutely love it. I can setup all of my emails on it, browse the web, youtube it up, check the status of my websites (mediatemple has an iPhone compatible section), and even login to wordpress. If you are planning on getting a new phone soon, I recommend testing out an iPhone at your local Mac shop.
Did I mention that I wrote this entire blog post from my phone?
