I'll Literally Give You Toast With Jam and $20

Okay so the first part is a bit of a dramatization. The $20 part on the other hand isn't. Let me explain.

You may have noticed that at the top of the site there is a leader board of contextual text based advertisements. For quite a long time, before I rearranged things here, I had at times experimented with various types of ads at the top of the page. I eventually settled on the rotating banner that has been in place for quite some time now. This was pretty successful, but there have been some comments as to the relationship between the ads and this site. The ads chosen for the banners were picked by me and the why is really for another time, but a partial explanation can be found in my article Boca Java, Rush Limbaugh And Affiliate Marketing.

I have now replaced that banner as part of a little experiment in conjunction with a friend of mine. You my friend are the proverbial guinea pig. I am curious to see the click through stat comparison of the contextual text ads vs. the ad banners. The ad banners I ran were not contextual so the comparison won't be the most scientific exercise alas I'm curious nonetheless.

Okay now about that $20. In conjunction with this little ad experimentation I decided to give you one of the keys to my success with this blog and affiliate marketing. I advertise! AAHHHHH! Shocking I know. I'll give you a minute to regain your composure...............A minute is too many dots sorry. Many of my most profitable and productive ad campaigns have been with Bidvertiser. Bidvertiser is very similar to adsense, but I have found that in almost every case the keywords I am wanting to target are far cheaper with bidvertiser than with adsense. This is a more productive use of the ad budget and gives a higher return on my investment. For these reasons and because I such a helpful guy I decided to pass along this little bit of information. Bidvertiser is giving away $20 in free clicks for new advertisers.

There are additional benefits to joining up with Bidvertiser other than the $20 in free clicks. Bidvertiser also has a very good referal program that if you choose to promote can also be an additional income stream for you. Also whenever I publish Bidvertiser ads on my pages I find that the click through rates are a bit higher so the income is on par with adsense and yahoo. The The combination of lower advertising costs, good clickthrough rates on the ads published, and the referral program make Bidvertiser a profitable productive choice indeed.



later all and have a profitable and productive blogging day

they actually put the $20 in on opening my account and then about a month later because of my use of the service gave me another $20. I have been very happy with Bidvertiser.

The Stripping Aristologist Contest Winner

Well as you can see from the above screen capture the winning entry is #5. Heading over to the contest post and looking through the comments and the trackbacks I found that Anton of Link Right Contests was entry #5 with his guess of Julia Child. The actual answer was incorrect so he won the $50 but not the bonus prize. I was a bit generous to 2 entries that commented and entered but did not give the link. I had to search their blog to find the answer. There were several that commented and gave a link to their blog but I could not find a post about the contest or any links back to this blog. Anywho....Congrats to Anton and thank you all so much for reading and taking the time to interact with this blog and really make it what it is. Oh and Anton you might want to consider some kind of Contact Me link for your blog. Other than trackback to your post and a comment I have no way to contact you regarding your winning entry. Having a Contact Me is one of the first things any blogger should

What the F Does the C Stand 4

I know all of you have been waiting with baited breathe for my first contest. Well we are taking the plunge together. Here is the chance for all of you to win something for doing almost nothing. Hopefully you won't think this Contest is full of Sh-t . For many many years I have had the "nickname," I guess you could call it, of Cman. Here lately, probably due in part to #10 in my 10 Reasons John Chow Probably Thinks This Blog Is About Him article, I have been getting asked more and more what the C in Cman stands for. Herein lays the focus of this contest. For the person who can guess what the C in Cman stands for I will give them $100. If multiple people guess correctly the winner will be chosen by random drawing from among the correct entries. If no one guesses correctly I will randomly pick from all entries and will award the winner of the losers $20. Clarification: 1. In the words of Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez, "There can be only One." Winner that is. E
