    WordPress Membership Plugin

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Avoid Amember IMO like the plague, serious PITA. Best I've used so far is Premise by CopyBlogger. I was just working with it yesterday. It didn't fully serve my purpose because the cart aspect didn't calculate tax for me, so I've switched to using WP E-Commerce plugin with their membership add...

    Entrepreneurs at a Crossroads documentary

    JAWS, What particular market are you speaking too? Competition is high in all the same markets as it would be in the US, but the reason Canadian's focus on the US market is because you're 10 times bigger then us. There's more people in California then in all of Canada. If I could launch...

    Web Programmer needed

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    My personal fav is Odesk.com. I bill quite a few hours through this service weekly. Secondary marketplaces I've used are: Elance.com and Freelancer.com Odesk is the happy medium of quality for the price.

    What do you think about buying Websites that pull in money?

    All valid questions. From my experiences with buying sites, improving and either holding for flipping them you always want to ask for the real info before you make a deal. For example if you can't find where the site is getting it's traffic, walk away. Ideally i f a site is pulling organic...

    Managing Link Exchanges / Backlinks

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I have an account at SEOMoz which will provide up to 10000 backlinks that they spider. Also I use scrape box to automate pulling backlinks from yahoo site explorer if I need them. Realistically, tracking this stuff is kind of wasted time unless a.) It's a paid link and you want to ensure your...

    A Great DOFOLLOW List

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Kfleming Just to play devils advocate here... there is no proof at all about what google has or hasn't devalued. From my large network (100+) test sites I've seen sites that took a nose dive that had no "grey" or "black" hat techniques used on them and sites that only used automated backlink...

    Which ad networks are the best? (biggest returns for publishers)

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    CPA Has always generally stood for "cost per action" not click. It is generally meaning an action that takes place other then a sale. I.e. And email or name submit in a forum or a fee trial request with a credit card. CPA networks, such as neverblueads and click pith are good launching a...

    All my work for nothing? {IM}

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Bozigian My 2 cents but build site as a backup not a squidoo thread if the market & keyword is really worth it. A Squidoo lens isn't an asset it's a social media account.

    How Would You Launch this product?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Mr Pink has given SOLID advice there. Beyond that I would be writing a blog around the basic topic/theme of your product NOW. Having a built in subscriber list via an RSS feed is always golden for launching something. The old flow chart of launching a product was: Find Niche - > Give them...

    Which ad networks are the best? (biggest returns for publishers)

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Low CTR and truthfully low quality inventory. I'd spend my money learning Facebook advertising for some products or just stick with MSN adcenter and Adwords. I've never been able to get a good ROI in second and third tier PPC or display ad networks.

    Anyone have any experience using Site Built It?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I have used SBI, still have a site I believe using Ken's system. It's a solid program for someone who has a.) no SEO experience b.) no website building experience in a sense of wanting to monetize it via ads or affiliate links c.) Doesn't want to learn Wordpress or another CMS While a lot of...

    New Internet Buisness

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    You'll need at least some intermediate knowledge of some server side language such as PHP, ASP, .NET. PHP is well documented all over the place. You're going to need integration with a DB as CEBenz mentioned. If you go PHP I'd say look to MYsql. However, even before you do that I'd do some...

    All my work for nothing? {IM}

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Bozigian The recent Panada update hurt a lot of sites that it shouldn't have and also cleared out a lot of sites that relied primarily on only a spam based link profile (i.e. blog comments, forum profile links etc). It has nothing to do with age of sites from all of my testing and talking with...

    Website code types?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    LightHouse Viewing page source won't do it for ya unfortunately. PHP, ASP and .NET are server side scripting languages, meaning they execute on the web server before they spit out what ever data you're looking for. A previous poster to the thread is correct through manipulation of a...
