    Lead Generation and Actually Selling the Leads

    I generally buy or build sites to hold; however, I had a sizable network of lead gen sites at one point, and eventually sold almost all of my lead generation sites in order to focus on a specific niche (they were sharing backend resources, but most of the income coming off of a small subset of...

    Lead Generation and Actually Selling the Leads

    If the site is producing, sell the site to one of the tire sellers. If they are buying advertising, then they'll see the reasoning behind the notion that a lead site is just a variation on the theme. Check around and find out what panel newspaper ads, serious Yellow Pages ads, billboards...

    Any young Perpetual Travelers here?

    I did through much of my youth, put down roots to take care of some family issues and raise a few little ones, and plan on pulling those roots back up in a few years. Really the way to go, if you tend to become energised by a change of scenery. I've lived in several parts of the US, plus...

    Lead Generation and Actually Selling the Leads

    Sign up for a couple of the bigger CPA companies (eg. NeverBlue.) Chances are, they have campaigns running that are in your niche; whatever they are paying out you can generally assume that the price you're going to get for your leads is somewhere around there. You may just be charging too...

    Mark Cuban is so Fastlane

    EXECUTION 
    posted by shades" I normally don't bother responding to personal attacks, but let me offer a thought experiment (which I assume you'll ignore, since you clearly didn't read my posts if that's all you took from them, but maybe it will help someone else.) Here goes: 1) What do you call...

    The SEO Marketplace - here goes nothing...

    HOT! 
    @Talisman: That quick look will cost ya. I once asked one of the mods why they let such an otherwise excellent forum get filled with 4chan-level garbage, and his response was that, as a matter of policy, it drove away 90% of the WarriorForum guru types, who won't post there (not openly, under...

    Mark Cuban is so Fastlane

    EXECUTION 
    I will say first that I mis-spoke about Cuban's net worth -- I got thinking about it after I posted, and distinctly remembered seeing a sub-$2 billion figure at some point in the past, which would tend to negate my "steadily down" comment. So I went digging around, and the facts are that the of...

    My mistake -- been a long time since I even loaded up BHW in my browser, let alone sold something there. Frank

    Mark Cuban is so Fastlane

    EXECUTION 
    If Cuban is so smart, why has his net worth steadily declined since his one lucky break? (Forbes currently lists his total net worth at $2.5 billion, which is of course a serious, non-trivial number of dollars, but that's not even half of his Yahoo!/Broadcasting.com deal value -- and adjusted...

    IMPORTANT QUESTION Too much Competition in Affiliate Marketing? /

    MARKETING 
    Competition drives price. If a given niche, or keyword for that niche, is highly competitive, it will become more difficult/expensive to rank for it, whether in SEO, paid promotion, or other avenues. Eventually the price will no longer be worth the benefit, and competition will drop. And...

    How McAfee Anti-Virus Founder Lost 90% Of His Wealth

    Can you cite any kind of a legit source for "rich people doing this all the time?" Can you describe the mechanism by which assets are protected by talking about one's financial situation to the press (whether truthfully or otherwise.) These are pretty interesting contentions you're making...

    Obsession with perfection for my site

    Not only are you wasting time, but what on earth makes you think "perfect" exists? A website is not a pyramid -- it should be fluid, constantly testing little new things to see what can increase conversions, enhance the user experience etc. And even if you don't consider perfection a static...

    The SEO Marketplace - here goes nothing...

    HOT! 
    WarriorForum is a toilet where failed marketers flush their only viable target customers (gullible newbies a six-year-old could pitch) down the bowl $7 at a time. DigitalPoint is not much better, but does generally have a more "SEO services" mindset among members (largely due to the...

    Not enough hours in a regular day?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    The biggest problem with the "not enough hours in the day" canard is, simply, that it isn't true. It's a completely wacky lie we tell ourselves, so that we can later have a fairly comfortable excuse for not getting anything done -- there simply isn't time to do everything, but we keep trying...

    eCommerce integration with drop shippers

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I've been using inFocus recently -- very much worth the $30. It is a dead simple drop-in solution, as easy to customise as a WordPress theme (even easier if you opt for the WordPress or XHTML versions, but I prefer the full-featured one.) Frank
