Ever wanted to know if you, your website, product or company is being discussed out there on Twitter..?
well it’s actually real easy to keep an eye on, and it’s free for up to 10 keywords.
Watch the video to see exactly how…

I’ve recently been reviewing some of my subscribers blogs and one of the main things that cropped up more than once is uncloaked affiliate links.
One of the biggest problems with uncloaked affiliate links used to be Clickbank “hoplinks” as it is very easy to see the clickbank “nickname” being used and replace it, sothe referring affiliate ends up not getting credited for the commission, sometimes referred to as “hoplink hijacking”.
Now thsi shouldn’t be as big a problem any more as Clickbank now offer “cloacked” links, instead of the traditional nickname.productname.hop.clickank_dot_net format that it used to be.
However I still recommend using a simple html redirect file on your own site for all affiliate links for a number of reasons, most importantly being that they don’t look so obviously “affiliate” (or monetized) links, but also if you need to change the program you are promoting you can simply change the one file on your own site and anywhere that you have used that link is also effectively updated…
I finally found the time to go and take a lolok at the stats at the start of this month, and I was pleasantly surprised with the results, which you can see in the video below: -
so, for just a few minutes work I’m getting a 3-400% increase in traffic after just 3 months, and this is likely to continue…

It’s time for a quick update on how well using AdSwaps is working for me in building my newsletter or subscriber “list”, and I’ve got a couple of screen shots which I hope will make it clear just how good a method this is….
I was first introduced to the idea of “adswaps” back in August last year by another marketer called Sean Mize.
He got in touch with me to ask if I would be interested in sending his free offer to my subscribers in return for him sending my free offer to his list.
Now I was used to doing “JV’s” with other marketers where we each send out the other’s paid product offer to our subscribers, and both make some profits in the process, but I’d never done “free swap”, or “adswap” as Sean called it, before, so I was interested in testing it out to see just how well it worked.

With John Reese’s announcement that he’s closing down BlogRush yesterday, and Cody Moya recently redirecting his Link2Blogs site to one of his affiliate products, it looks like the only choice left for a decent traffic widget that is worth adding to your blog is the very same one that I tipped as the best back in March when I checked out all three traffic exchange blog widgets!
