How is it possible to be in one place and everywhere at the same time? For us mere mortals, it's not. However, with social media all of us are more connected than ever before. I frequently get questions from people wanting to know how they can connect with me. I thought it would be useful for me to provide a list of where you can find me. I invite you to connect and interact with... Continue Reading

Remember the good old days? AM radio blaring the latest top forty hits. Televisions with dials on the set so you would have to get up to change the channel. And who can forget the typewriter? Simply put in a piece of paper and start typing! It was magical. That is, until you made a mistake. Get the White Out! The magical days of the typewriter have returned. Only now you don't really need paper... Continue Reading

No firm has done more to enable the monetization of the Internet than Google. Its AdSense system has gone through a lot of changes since it launched in 2003, but it's still the backbone of my online business, the channel around which much of my content is built. Continue Reading

I'm a big fan of guerrilla marketing. I think that marketers should be using all of the most effective channels available to them to put their products and services in front of leads. Continue Reading

Earlier this year I received a Facebook message from a person representing a well-known author and speaker who has done quite well in the infomercial space. I was told their group was interested in meeting with me to explore the possibility of creating an infomercial that would feature me and teach people about the opportunity for making money on the Internet. Now I have received calls similar to this many times before. Usually it turns... Continue Reading

I received an email solicitation today to take part in an alleged competition that is due to take place starting in October. It's called (brace yourself...) "The Internet Marketing World Cup" (goooooooooalllll!) It is likely you will be hearing more about this in the future so I thought it would be interesting to dissect it and share some thoughts.

(Written by guest contributor Ray Edwards) Have you ever noticed that over the years, you tend to do pretty much the same things? If you're a reader, you remain one; if you're a writer, you tend to write; if you're a procrastinator, you tend to keep procrastinating, and so forth. Continue Reading

(Written by guest contributor Tim Golen) In my line of work, I get asked a lot about what the difference is between mobile application development and mobile web development. Instead of just responding to a bunch of emails, I thought it best to write an article about it. Continue Reading

(Written by guest contributor Joseph A. Michelli, Ph.D.) Recently, I had a very candid conversation with an entrepreneur whom I've known for a long time but who has never shown much interest in elevating service at his business. During that conversation he said something like, "Joseph I know you believe service is an important value proposition and intuitively it makes sense, BUT I can't monetize the value of service."

(Written by guest contributor Chris Harper) If you have spent time on YouTube, then you've probably seen at least one user's YouTube channel. And if you've seen more than a few, then you may have noticed that the design and attractiveness of those channels varies widely from user to user. Some of them are highly attractive with custom imagery, while others make your eyes hurt to look at them. If you have a YouTube account... Continue Reading

In the years that I've been an online entrepreneur, I've seen some pretty bizarre times. I remember the days when advertisers were paying crazy sums of money for sending them traffic - far more than the visitors were ever going to spend - and I remember the day too when they figured that out.
