I’ve been using the BayRSS plugin from Azlan Kasim for several months now, both here on IMMania.com as well as on several niche affiliate blogs. This is a fantastic WP plugin and has worked for me without a hitch. My approach to using the eBay affiliate program, now called ePN since the migration in-house by eBay, is to rapidly blast-test products from eBay using Adwords and then breakout the winners into WP blogs to leverage longer term free traffic.
Gotta love that free traffic!

I’m currently in the process of overhauling my oldest affiliate content site. This has been a very tedious process to say the least. The site was originally setup to use SSI (server side includes) since at the time, it was suggested to me to go that route in order to include things like a common sidebar navigation and footer includes. The concept is definitely sound, but the method to implement it is kind of outdated.

Yesterday, sometime in the afternoon my time (EST), Google started going to work on my Adwords campaigns on the Search Network. It clearly was a “Google Slap” in action, but this time around it seemed to be acting a little differently.
At first, it was only a few ad groups in one campaign and then only certain keywords. While some keywords were getting hit with the usual $5 and $10 minimum bids, which are typical of a Slap, others were hanging on at .05 with “Great” Quality Scores.

I joined “PPC Classroom” on the day it launched - September 25, 2007. I can easily remember that date because it’s my dad’s birthday, but anyway, I was sitting in front of my PC refreshing the sales page in order to qualify for the “fast action bonus”.
I’ve waited until now to write up a full review of PPCC in order to let all of the dust settle. And there has been quite a bit of dust to be settling.

I recently took advantage of the free offer to download a non-demo version of Techsmith’s Camtasia Studio 3 and decided to start learning how to make screen capture videos with it. I believe the offer is still up, so you may want to get in on it. I don’t have a link handy for it, but a quick search will turn it up for you. Seems everyone has blogged about it. It is a great deal.
