Another Great Affiliate that actually pays! $$ WPWebHost

// June 19th, 2009 // No Comments » // Affiliate Networking, Blogging, Cool Websites, Design Resources, Featured, For Geeks, Geeks, Hosting, I recommend, Wordpress, Wordpress Themes, webmaster

Another Great Affiliate that actually pays! WPWebHost.com I just signed up with them as an affiliate and added a banner to the bottom of my posts using the Shantz WordPress Prefix/Suffix Plugin which I also love by the way.

I earned 70.00 bucks with only 2 referrals and in no time at all.  If your like me when you first found out about affiliate marketing you thought “great I can just add links to my website and I’ll make money”. Well it’s really not that easy.

I’m very picky about the affiliates I add to my website. If I don’t believe in their product I’m not gonna bug my visitors with their ads. If it’s something I think my visitors would be interested in then I’ll sign up and add the banner.  Knowing full well that I’ll probably never see a dime… but I tend to have the “hey what the heck can’t hurt” kind of attitude when it comes to most affiliates.

However there have been only a few affiliates that I have made money off of and those few are The WP Remix Theme, Woo Themes and now WPWebHost! The cool thing about WPWebHost is you can create and track your own affiliate links! Which is not something most of the Wordpress theme affiliates allow you to do.

WPWebHost also offers tier linking which basically means you can make money from other affiliates who sign up under you.. and no that is not why I’m promoting them. I’m promoting them because I made money and money is is always fun to share! SIGN UP TODAY!

Plus their client list is pretty impressive.. well if your familiar with some of the designers who blog that is..

WPWebHost Clients:

Design Shard is now Hosted with WPWebHost and its been a really great experience so far, support is fast at responding to questions about their hosting and about Wordpress, the features of there servers are better than what I was on at Godaddy! I would recommend them with confidence if your thinking of changing hosts.”

OIO Publisher - Let advertisers buy space on your site without lifting a finger - WP Plugin

// May 25th, 2009 // No Comments » // Admin Tools, Blogging, Coupons, For Geeks, I recommend, Useful, Wordpress Plugins, Wordpress Themes, web tools, webmaster

Put your advertising income on autopilot.

OIO Publisher OIO Publisher is a very user-friendly and easy to use Wordpress plugin that lets advertisers buy space on your site without you having to lift a finger.  All you have to do is set the plugin up by setting the types of spaces you want to sell, for example, banners, text-links, or inline ads in each of your front page posts and setting the price for each.  You’ll also have to fill in a few other details, such as how long an advertiser can rent the space and your Paypal ID.  That’s basically it.  Now all you’ll have to do is click the “approve” button anytime someone submits their link / banner to the site.

This is basically the same concept as the publisher program , except, OIO Publisher has one major advantage… no middle-man.  Text-Link-Ads has this nasty habit of taking 50% of the money you earn for themselves, those greedy bastards…  With OIO Publisher, all the money that you earn goes directly into your Paypal account, it’s great.  ForTheLose.org has already sold two banner slots and one text-link slot.  If you want to advertise your site / product here, just check under “Advertise Here” on the sidebar to see what we have open.

Flexible

  • install OIOpublisher as a Wordpress plugin or a stand alone platform
  • sell all forms of text ads, banner ads, and paid reviews
  • custom purchases also allow you to sell digital products
  • display ads on any website you like using php or javascript
  • click and impression tracking, plus weekly ad reports emailed to advertisers
  • integrated marketplace helps you sell your ads

Customizable

  • break ads into zones, display ads easily over multiple sites
  • no empty spaces, show your own default ads until slots are purchased
  • convert website visitors to sales staff using the inbuilt affiliate program
  • developers can easily add more functionality using modules
  • use the ad manager on an unlimited number of sites (providing you own them)
  • submit an unlimited number of your sites to our ad marketplace
  • earn 50% commission on all sales of OIOpublisher, via our affiliate program

Where can I get it?

Even if you aren’t sure if you want the plugin, check out the homepage of it anyway for more info.  It does cost you a one-time payment of $47 for unlimited use of the plugin.  You can use it on all the sites you want.  BUT…and this is a big “but”… if you buy it now and use the coupon code “INDIGO-BLOGGER”, you get $10 off of the full price, meaning you only pay $37!  Trust me, OIO Publisher will pay for itself in just a few days..  I’m not sure when this coupon code expires, so even if you can’t use the OIO Publisher right now, get it anyway for the future before the coupon goes bad or even worse - if the price goes up.

To get $10 off this plugin (and buy it for only $37.00), use the following coupon code when purchasing: INDIGO-BLOGGER.

So what are you waiting for? Go use one of these coupons on OIO Publisher right now before they expire!

Make Money with Wordpress Remix Theme Affiliate

// May 24th, 2009 // 2 Comments » // Blogging, Cool Websites, For Geeks, Premium Wordpress Themes, Wordpress Themes, Wp Themes, webmaster

I’m always looking for ways to make extra money online because lets face it there’s money to be made! Wether it be by freelancing my web design skills or affiliate marketing or selling stuff on Ebay.. it can be done. Or so I’ve been told. Right? 

It’s taken my over a year to get half way to 100 bucks using Google adwords ads. Haha! Not a huge winner.

But.. In March I made something like $350 as an WP Remix Themes Affiliate . Shocking I know. My site was down most of April and half of May so I’ve only made 100 this month but I’m telling you that is a first for me.

I just wish I was WP Remix and not just their affiliate. Their theme is awesome so it’s not shocking that people are snatching them up.

I’ve made a few sales here and there selling other premium themes but nothing like this. So, if you have a design bog I recommend signing up as an affiliate and adding a banner to your site. You might make a few extra bucks.

Have you found anything online that’s brought you luck as far as making money with your site or otherwise? Share!! Please!

Fun with Twitter: Twittereader.com & Twitterbuttons.com

TwitteReader.com

Check out TwitteReader, a new and free service which turns Twitter into something resembling Google Reader. 

Once you’ve plugged in your username and password, it presents the latest tweets as individual feed items, which you can cruise through either by reading the short snippets (a la Google Reader) or expanding them out to full posts with a click.

Just like Google Reader and Gmail, you can move up and down the list with the same J and K keyboard shortcuts. You can also star items, which adds them to your Twitter favorites list. The application keeps track of what you’ve read and what you haven’t, which, depending on how many people you’re following, could be useful. If a system like Google Reader’s trends were to be applied to this you could see which people’s updates you’re not reading and cut them out of your followers list.

Of course the obvious must be stated here–you can simply take the RSS feed of your friends provided by Twitter and plug it into Google Reader to accomplish something quite similar. TwitteReader’s killer feature, however, is that it lets you post and reply to messages from each post, just like you would in Twitter.

// May 18th, 2009 // No Comments » // Admin Tools, Blogging, Code, Design, Design Resources, For Geeks, I recommend, Useful, Wordpress, Wordpress Plugins, Wordpress Themes, web tools, webdesign, webmaster, wordpress tutorials

Cybers Ebay Wordpress Plugin

The eBay Wordpress Plugin is finally available.

The eBay plugin is very simple but effective. Once installed you input your EbayNetwork Campaign number into the settings, and how many ads you want to appear on each post.

Place the code <?php cybersebay(); ?> within the Wordpress loop and you are set.

The first time you use the plugin you will add a Custom Field to your post with the Key name, ebay. And use the value to hold the keyword for this post to import eBay ads. From here on out, whenever you write a post, you can select the custom field key, ebay from the pulldown list and add the keyword you wish to show listings for.

Below is an example from another site. The article is titled “Fun Stocking Stuffers” and the keyword for eBay is “Christmas Stocking Stuffers”

Click for full size screenshot

During my testing of the plugin I received a $27 click, and that is certainly the highest valued click I have ever received !

And it is ONLY $9.95 !!
