No matter how well defined something is, I for one, am inclined to challenge it. Look at every possible angle, argue every point, move the lines around to see if it can be made into something its not. Conspiracy theories, maneuvered situations, shading the truth are all specialties of mine but I'm also inclined to see things for their fairest value and since I can't seem to find any holes in the boat I sit in it with relative ease. Call me a believer. Transparency is a huge word these days, but

 I read an article about Jerry Lewis's final appearance on the upcoming Muscular Dystrophy telethon. I was surprised at how touched I was. He will sing "You will never walk alone" and at 85 years old, thats no small feat. No small exercise to continue to head up the telethon even though he will not host it. The telethon made its first appearance in 1952, as did I, so I suppose I experienced it's power in one form or another through the years. Jerry Lewis raised over one and one an

Writing an article for use on the internet is confusing. As an affiliate your aim is to promote a product. Somewhere along the line we discovered that by infusing keywords into the article that they will receive a higher rank. That is, googles search engine will recognize the value of an article and place it on their pages based on those keywords. We as new affiliates and writers find the mix can cause some unusual problems. New search algorithm changes have made it even more mysterious. Writing

 One of the things I read about in regards to internet marketing is the dead end. I tried this and it did not work. What am I doing wrong? I think about my own frustrations and the thousand times I have said this just doesn't work. So I read some more. Hang out in the forum reading about somebody elses problems. I read the heartfelt wonderful blogs, some about success, some about failure and then I get busy and study some more information on seo, google algorithims, writing a successful art

 Do you ever ask yourself why you struggle with writing content for the web? You know what you want to convey but your article marketing effort comes out looking a bit strained, more than that, the poor critter is blue in the face and struggling for air.

 Had to share this one. Here's a niche that took me off gaurd. Reading a small adds paper called "Farm and Ranch" is just part of morning coffee time, but this left me spluttering.

 Ever wonder why you aren't getting anywhere with affiliate marketing? I sure have and I'm going to tell you what I think about it all. Affiliate marketing is a scary thing. WA lays it all out in front of me and its so big and awesome that I can't help but sense its incredible power. I want what it has, I can see how it moves, but do I dare touch it? What is it going to do to me? Well, I don't know, so I start circling around it, poking it every now and then with a stick. Ezine will except

  I woke up this morning slumped over my laptop. My beard had grown into the keyboard and spider webs crept from the walls and ceilings to my decaying, clothed, disheveled form. I wondered at the time, it was Friday, but a month later than I remembered. What had happened to the once well organized, motivated would be affiliate marketer? Had I lost my zeal? Was I defeated? Was this the end of the world that Joan suggested was not? Had the magic all gone out of Jay's much appreciated wabanar

At heart I am a mechanic. I believe most men are and I have come to recognize that the better you are at understanding something the less sure you are about fixing it. Making the fool thing fire and run... It is not just a matter of building a motor, it becomes a matter of building a better motor, after all, if I am cursed to have been born with the ability to build a motor, it should be bigger, faster and "badder" than any other one on the street, besides, I like spinning the tires. T

 If you are to lazy to write your own article, why are you trying to utilize article marketing? Why are you taking the content that someone else has  tirelessly worked on and stuck it in an article spinner that, besides producing near gibberish, is an insult to the reader's intelligence? These articles are obviously tortured renditions of someone else's work. The people who use these essay manglers  do not even go to the effort of personally editing the slashed version of the comm
