It's getting bigger every day but 'My Shopping Genie' has underlying problems where they'll appear to the public sooner rather than later.  I wrote a review for my subscribers all about it.  Here it is. My Shopping Genie - Review A repeat of the 1999 Skybiz business opportunity has hit the UK (although operating from the USA) after being launched in Ireland. It's called My Shopping Genie and, I must say, a very clever computer application is involved. The Shopping Genie app is a pro

Seems like you can't turn on the TV news or pick up the daily newspaper these days without being bombarded by messages of doom and gloom. High petrol prices. repossessions, falling house prices, floods, famines, heat waves, foods that make you sick. It's almost like the news media is in a never ending race to tell us why life is no longer worth living. But of course, the news media are usually wrong. It's just 'bad news' sells newspapers and keeps people watching TV. (If you don't believe me, ge
Now that's what I call an instant blog. I just used the new tool from WA to launch a brand new blog hosted with WA. It's going to be for newbies to learn the extreme basics of IM. Once they've subscribed as a member to WA, they'll have no problems building sites, that's for sure.  Mine appeared in around one minute ... wonderful stuff.

I have done a little research and, yes, Google are seriously cutting out the crap, so to speak... even it it's not crap to you and me. Basically, anything that remotely looks like being a link to another site just for that purpose is being removed by Google. Worse, if you upset Google in this way, they'll take a look at EVERYTHING else you do.  They check the IP and domain registrations you are involved with and lower your ranking on all of them. So, the guys who know these things are advis

For over three years I've had a Google Blogger blog for my local Pottery. Google have just sent me an email informing me that it's been deleted for reasons of SPAM. They point me to their terms and conditions page: ===== Spam: Spam takes several forms in Blogger, all of which can result in deletion of your account or blog. Some examples include creating blogs designed to drive traffic to your site or to move it up in search listings and posting comments on other people's blogs just to promote yo

Just a heads up about a change ot the Terms & Conditions at PayPal this month. While I am sure non of you mislead your customers with misleading descripitons... it's worth mentioning these new terms and the affect it may have if you are not open and honest. ============================== START ====================== From 1 June, customers who pay you with PayPal will be protected if they receive a product that doesn't match its description. Over 20 million online shoppers use PayPal and

The question of '.info' domain name extensions often crops up.  Are they any use? After me thinking not, it was revealed that one of my own .info domains was doing OK so, perhaps it was worth investing in the .info extension that cost less than $1.00 to buy for a year. A '.com', however is around $10.00 for the same length of time. Does Google think that anyone who purchases a .info domain are just planning to have 'thin' sites that are weak on content? To test out my theory, I used a sm

Here are four things I found out about Twitter that aren't immediately obvious, so hopefully they may be of use to you too. 1) Link stats Because of the 140 character limit, URLs you post on Twitter are usually shortened. The default URL shortener in Tweetdeck is bit.ly. So the short URL for my last post might be http://bit.ly/ac4GWm. Here's where it gets interesting. Add a + to the end of the URL so it becomes http://bit.ly/ac4GWm+ and you get a page with click statistics as well as info on w

I just created a Wordpress blog using the brand new WA system and it is absolutely amazing, I really can't believe the quality of this brand new feature available to WA members.

Thanks guys for building this really cool tool where I know everyone here will be as excited as I am about implementing it. My New WA Blog Site - (It's Incredible) Martyn

Profit From Public Domain Books - Useful New Method Selling eBooks 'As Is' has become old hat in many people's eyes but you can still profit from them in another way. How about uploading them for other people to download and read on their electronic book readers? I've just built a quick training business blueprint here on WA which may prove useful to other members. The resource link above shows you how to get started.
