Incredible Facebook Ads Targeting…wait

Posted by admin | Nonsense | Tuesday 15 December 2009 9:59 am

So last night I was perusing Facebook and of course the ads displayed to the right to see what was being advertised to me…

Facebook Ads WTF


The first ad was for an affiliate network…I thought that was pretty interesting since I don’t mention affiliate marketing at all on my profile.












The second one was for guitar strings…possibly my favorite brand…also quite interesting since I’ve been playing guitar for like 17 years yet do not mention this fact in my “activities” or anywhere else.

At this point I decided Facebook must know me perhaps even better than I know myself…and then I saw the third one…

Affiliate Summit West in Las Vegas – Free Passes!

Posted by admin | Affiliate Marketing, Events | Tuesday 8 December 2009 4:15 pm

If you have been following this here blog for a while, perhaps you already know what a great time I had last year at Affiliate Summit West ‘09. I intend to do the same at the next one in January. In fact, I intend to have an even greater time, if you can believe that.

Wanna come? This year, because I’m so awesome, I have a full pass. Pretty sweet. But the fact of the matter is you don’t really need access to all of the educational sessions and all that jazz. Sure, you can learn a lot in those sessions, but an upgraded (aka more expensive) pass is required to get in. However, what makes Affiliate Summit truly great (and anyone who has been will tell you) is the networking opportunities that are nothing short of abundant. Especially if it is your first Aff Summit, all you really need is a silver pass. A silver pass gives you access to the exhibit hall (where network owners will swoon you). The exhibit hall is where the (daytime) action is. It is your duty to find out where the dang parties are each night (and I might just be able to help you with that)!

Let me go ahead and detail what a silver pass gives you access to:

  • - Affiliate Meet Market & Exhibit Hall
  • - Keynotes
  • - Affiliate Summit Social Network

How much does this silver pass cost, you ask!? Well, if you had registered super early (before Oct 19th) it would have been $79. From now until the event, a 2010 ASW Silver Pass can be snagged for $149. And if you somehow forget to register altogether and show up like some sort of vagabond affiliate with no registration, you can get a silver pass on-site for $249.

Or….

If you’re one of the first 5 people to register using the following code: ASW10JACK (that’s my name, silly), you can get a Silver Pass for FREE! Register here at once.

Wahoo!

I look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas. I’ll be the one getting his stomach pumped by a showgirl and simultaneously TwitPic-ing it.

Namecheap Opens Affiliate Program

Posted by admin | Affiliate Marketing, News | Sunday 6 December 2009 5:13 pm

It’s about time. My favorite registrar (as well as the favorite of anyone with any sense!) is finally offering an affiliate program. Sign up here.

The reason Namecheap is such a favorite among webmasters (in my opinion) has to do with the following:

-Free WhoIsGuard with every new domain registration

-They don’t spam the shit out of you (like a different registrar that rhymes with BlowCaddy)

-They’re cheap, as the name implies.

One thing that sort of sucks, though, is you won’t be credited for sales generated using a promo code. Also, the tracking cookie lasts for 30 days, but you’ll only receive a commission for the first sale generated by each customer (15% of it).

Speaking of coupon codes, “SNOWNEEDLE” is the one you want to use for the month of December to get the discount on new domain registrations.

That is all.
