Mike — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 13:32:32 +0000

With Brad Callen’s Keyword Elite 2.0 just a few hours from launch you are maybe wondering where you can find the best Keyword Elite 2 bonus package available? No, I am not going to offer you anything myself in order to get you to purchase through my affiliate link. Instead, I thought I would quickly tell [...]

Content Will Be King In Solving Newspaper Crisis

Mike — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 08:12:19 +0000

I read an interesting editorial in the local newspaper the other day – it was about the great challenge newspapers and other printed media has to deal with in the decades to come. According to a professor emeritus of journalism, Philip Meyer, the brand of the printed newspaper has perhaps never been stronger – professional [...]

My Clickbank Business Not As Unique As It Sounds

Mike — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 16:51:04 +0000

Several of the heavy hitters in the Internet marketing world have been promoting a product called “My Clickbank Business” the last couple of days. I must say my first impression was that this was something rather interesting, and I am not talking merely about the fact that they opted to primarily have a video instead [...]

Start Blogging and Enjoy These Benefits

Mike — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 14:22:21 +0000

Why you would want to start your own blog is still an unsolved mystery for some, yet there are actually more blogging jobs online than one would perhaps first imagine. Blogs can be used for anything from writing about the latest gossip you heard and what you had for lunch to effectively promoting various products and [...]

Popular Adobe Products Targeted By Hackers

Mike — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 08:05:36 +0000

Le me guess, you probably have Adobe reader installed on your computer. And probably flash player too? If so you should take care to not join the 80% of users online who have, according to Trusteer, not upgraded their software and are thus vulnerable to hacker attacks. Nothing could disrupt your online buisness efforts quite [...]

Long Time No See…err.. Post That Is

Mike — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 13:28:49 +0000

No posts since January of this year – eek! It would seem that I came very close to committing blog suicide on this domain. I have simply had my head buried so deep with other projects (many of them not related to Internet marketing) this year that I had all but forgotten about this blog. I [...]

The (Really Short) Skinny on Google Annihilation by Rob Benwell

Mike — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 11:49:50 +0000

I have received many email promotions about a new traffic and SEO membership product by Rob Benwell, called Google Annihilation. I haven’t had time to even look at the sales page until just now, and I did a little quick research about what some who bought this product have to say. In short – I will [...]

Affiliate Marketing Product Selection – A Forgotten Aspect?

Mike — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 15:24:12 +0000

A while ago I watched a video from an online marketer. In his hands he held a set of DVDs, an affiliate marketing product he had chosen to promote, and he sincerely recommended that the viewer – his own subscribers and customers – invest in the material that was on those DVDs. Certainly nothing wrong [...]

Merry Christmas With Internet Marketing Presents

Mike — Tue, 23 Dec 2008 11:35:43 +0000

As I am soon off to spend Christmas with the family, I just wanted to give any readers of this relatively new blog a couple of Internet marketing related Christmas presents. The gifts are two “old skool” books that you can start reading right now, free (I am actually using the word as it is [...]

WebComp Analyst Review

Mike — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 16:06:19 +0000

As the first product review on this blog, I’ll have a look at a new keyword tool called WebComp Analyst. But before the actual review, let’s begin with a quick look back on some Internet marketing history. I remember a few years back, when the “Bum Marketing method” was being taught. If you’ve never heard of [...]

Daft Comments On Youtube and Christmas Gifts for Real Guitar Heroes

Mike — Sun, 14 Dec 2008 11:58:45 +0000

In today’s post I am going to explain why I rarely pay any attention to comments on Youtube anymore, why I don’t play the video game Guitar Hero, as well as give some suggestions for what would make a great Christmas gift for someone who plays guitar. In the process I will also recommend a [...]

Daniel Craig is Great as James Bond!

Mike — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 15:35:19 +0000

As I, in my earlier post about a black James Bond, said that some people think the latest Bond movies where almost a bit too pretentios, I would like to go on record and say that I actually do not agree with that notion. I saw the newest Bond movie, A Quantum of Solace, during [...]

The World’s Most Expensive Free SEO?

Mike — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 13:16:42 +0000

Although I didn’t end up buying Traffic Crusher I discussed in my last post, I do think that paid traffic is something that every serious online entrepreneur should look into. In fact, I have a feeling that many of us are so hung up on traditional SEO – ranking at the very top of Google [...]

Traffic Crusher Dissected

Mike — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 16:20:55 +0000

No, this is not a promotion for Mike Filsaime’s and James Kumners new training program called Traffic Crusher (apparently “Crusher” is Filsaime’s new brand or something). Neither is it a review of this product, as I haven’t purchased it. But I did watch their promotional video earlier today, and thought it could be a fun exercise [...]

ShowTime’s Bullshit – An Aptly Named TV-Show

Mike — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 18:14:21 +0000

During my lazy time this weekend I watched an assortment of episodes from the Bullshit tv-series starring comedians/magicians Penn&Teller. I think the show is really entertaining and that you can actually learn a little bit about various persuasion techniques (something most marketers are interested in) by watching the show. But I wouldn’t recommend that you [...]

Black James Bond a Great Idea?

Mike — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 13:12:30 +0000

I just read in my newspaper that Barbara Broccoli, the current producer of the James Bond movies, said something along the lines that – as there is now a black American president, there might just as well be a black James Bond. I didn’t know this, but it seems that the same thing was actually discussed [...]

Swedish Logical Fallacies about File Sharing

Mike — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 13:31:50 +0000

I watched a debate on Swedish television the other night, it was about P2P networks and the Alliance government’s new plans of giving record companies and the like rights to hunt down individual file sharers and sue them. From the view of personal integrity this is of course a problematic issue. But what I found even [...]

Adventures in Domain Name Registration

Mike — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 14:43:42 +0000

Okay, so here comes the first rant for this brand new blog – so hold on to your hats dear readers (yes, both of you). When I was trying to register an appropriate domain name for this blog, I encountered the same samba dance of annoying issues I always have when registering a new domain name: 1) [...]

Sell On Ebay and Survive the Financial Crisis

Mike — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 18:25:31 +0000

You have probably not missed hearing the news about the current financial crisis taking place in the world – what with ever news media blaring facts and horror stories about the crisis. Business owners, small and big ones alike, have reason to be anxious and are currently trying to take the steps necessary in order [...]
