Affiliate link cloaker WordPress plugin

Filed under: Internet,Uncategorized,Wordpress — Joe Brewer @ 4:50 pm

Affiliate link cloaker is a free WordPress plugin that can geo target cloaked affiliate links. This plugin has the capability to generate a link like http://www.brewsterware.com/recommends/amazon and have visitors from the USA click on the link and get sent to www.amazon.com, visitors from the UK sent to www.amazon.co.uk and so on.

In addition to this, these cloaked links can be automatically inserted into content. Keywords or phrases can be set to be changed to nofollowed links that open in a new window so that visitors are not taken away from your website.

Updates for Caffinated Content

Filed under: Caffinated Content,Internet,Wordpress — Tags: — Joe Brewer @ 6:40 pm

For those of you that use Caffinated Content you may be interested to heat that kansieo has decided to sell 19 copies of the source code to Caffinated Content – it was 20, but I’ve bought one.  Full details can be found here – In a nutshell kansieo is allowing 20 developers to take the source code, improve it, and update it.

What would you like to see in future releases ?  Here’s a list of mine:

  • Cron jobs for adding posts – a set number per day.
  • Cron jobs setup to add posts to different categories from specific sources.
  • Support for more sites to collect content from – maybe use a plugin architechture to add new sites.
  • The ability to poll for content to be posted from a specific folder.  A file in xml format could allow for wordpress post fields such as post date, title, content etc could be used appropriately in each post.

Domain Renewal Group

Filed under: Domains,Internet,Rants — Joe Brewer @ 6:51 am

I keep on getting letters from the domain renewal group asking if I want to transfer domains to them, only for them to change more than twice as much as my current registrar. My latest letter is asking me to transfer one of my .net domains to them for the bargin price of £20 (yes, that is twenty pounds stirling) for one year! My current registrar, which happens to be moniker, charges $8 a year.

Anyone else get these ridiculous letters ?

Tracker progress – part 1

Filed under: Evolution of a new tracker,Internet,PHP and MySQL — Joe Brewer @ 7:08 pm

So now I can create campaigns for offers, landing pages, offer rotations and landing page rotations.  I’ve only really tested sending traffic directly to offers, but I’ve only got one real report (and that is still not 100% finished).

Here is the report for anyone that is interested.

SEO Companies using ethical techniques want me on google page 1

Filed under: Internet,SEO — Joe Brewer @ 5:58 pm

I’ve recently been getting requests from people using the contact form on my blog network small collection of blogs offering to get my sites to page 1 of google.  Here are the emails:

Contact name: Robert Karlson
Contact email: [email protected]

Internet Marketing Services

We would like to get your website on first page of Google.

All of our processes use the most ethical “white hat” Search Engine Optimization techniques that will not get your website banned or penalized.
Please reply and I would be happy to send you a proposal.

The following email came from [email protected] though they say that their page is www.google.com – a little white lie me thinks.

order to discuss the possibility in further detail.

I wonder if their ethical white hat techniques that will not get the sites banned or penalised include using xrumer or other automated contact form spamming software.  I wouldnt have thought so, looking at their emails they look very professional.  What do you think?
