Social Bookmarking Wall St. Style

There is another social networking site in town. MyWallSt.net is different though in that it is focused on the stock market and investing in general. They also have a stock game called the rookie challenge that lets you try out strategies and the tips and information you gather from the site and also has cash prizes. Members create a profile and this can be viewed by everyone are rated by their performance and you can view portfolios daily, weekly, monthly, and overall return rates. The advantage of the site over many traditional stock publications is that many times by time these go to print the information is already "dated." The information here is fresh and timely. Also I find that for many people these publications just seem to talk above them. The learning curve when it comes to the stock market is steep, and many traditional stock publications don't take the "rookie" investor into account. I found that it is not the case on MyWallSt.net . The level of kn

Sproose - A New User Powered Search Engine

Sproose, “user powered search” a new age search engine, allows users to vote for their favorite websites and influence the index ranking of the search results. Once voted, the index is instantly refreshed moving the site up creating improved results for each user. The more users that vote a site the further up in the index it goes. Users may share their voted site history with others connecting users with similar interests. click here to try sproose I have went over to sproose and and checked it out. I did a bunch of random searches comparing the results to those of google, yahoo, and ask. The results were a pretty close match with yahoo and ask but not quite so much with google. The plus side of the "user powered" approach is that it integrates the algorithmic search results with those voted up the results list by users. It seems to be a mix of bookmarking sites like digg or delicious combined with the user interaction of StumbleUpon and the organic results of normal search

LinkShare Now Pays Weekly! The Best Affiliate Network?

LinkShare Review - Are They The Best Affiliate Network? NOTE: This is not a sponsored post. I am simply giving you my honest opinion as a user on a new feature of the linkshare affiliate program. As an affiliate marketer I use several affiliate link "clearinghouses." I have had good success with several including commission junction, linkshare, clickbank, and ROI Rocket. The only drawback with ones like clickbank and ROI Rocket is the wait to get paid. I have always liked linkshare's interface and the wide selection of programs that they offer. Well here is some good news to us affiliate marketers. Starting immediately, LinkShare will now pay you weekly , rather than two times per month. In addition, they will pay you on the first dollar you earn , rather than waiting for you to earn over $25 or $50 like other major networks. This is an incredible payout setup. By moving to a weekly payment schedule, they reduce your wait time to receive commissions and effectively doubl

$50 A Story & A Side Of Pigeon Poop

Lori of A Cowboy's Wife fame is having a contest at her new blog Blogging With Cents . It is a cool contest in which you fill in the blanks to make a story. Mad Libs for adults. Now for the story..... The epiphany happened about a month ago in Wal-Mart of all places. I was rummaging through the clearance underwear when I realized my socks could be seen. You have probably had that experience before. I felt betrayed, and I knew that soon I would have to offer all of my pants on the altar to the fashion god's. I was a little worried about burning down the house though. But then, all of the sudden, I saw Stacy London and Clinton Kelly coming right towards me!! I remembered what a cowboy’s wife had told me. It was very important to breathe and not faint when you see famous people. Before I knew it, I was given the tools and tips to dress like a sexy stud. So you see, I really was a sexy stud all along, and I decided I just had to wear pink and thong underwear to prov

Key Wording Your Web Site With Natural Language

Ever since the beginning of search engines there has been the discussion of key wording. Obviously your web page has to be about something and you want the search engine to reflect that in its results. In the early days of search engines you could put words or phrases anywhere on a page and show up in the results. People who just wanted traffic would get a list of the most popular used keywords and just put them on a page. The page could have been about toilets but show up in search results about Hollywood celebrities. In those days finding what you wanted was a daunting task. So the search engines started looking at natural language. Each year they have become more sophisticated about how they look at natural language. The first thing they did was to stop looking at keyword meta tags. Too often people were putting keywords in that did not match their page. Next they started punishing people for putting strings of key words together, such as "baseball baseball baseball". Next

Stripping By Numbers - Keywords & Traffic, Do They Match?

Whew! The last several weeks have been pretty hectic. A big thanks to all my readers for stopping by and for your thoughtful comments. I have been asked, more than a few times already, why the heck are you asking for stripping as a keyword anchor text link in your contest. Well I finally got a chance the other day to stop and take a look at my stats for the previous month. One area that I wanted to take a close look at was how my search engine traffic was going, and which keywords were driving the most traffic. What I found was that over the last 30 days my most popular content and they keywords that really drive traffic didn't quite mesh. Honestly I'm not yet real sure what this means, but here are some numbers. My first impression though is that I am not doing as well as I should in both writing for targeted keywords and for readability. As I'm curious by nature I figured I would try a little experiment based on the numbers below and see what happens. That is the short an

Extra Medium?

I actually posted this over at my more general personal blog and had a good response. Some suggested I might post it here as well. So here it is. Okay, just sitting here wondering once again why they make extra small, hereafter referred to as XS, and extra large, hereafter referred to as XL, but they don't make extra medium, hereafter referred to as XM. No I have not lost it and yes I know what medium means. Let me explain and maybe you can understand a bit better.

Win $50! With The Stripping Aristologist - Contest

NOTE: Due to personal illness I have not been available and therefore have extended the contest through October 31st @ 4:00 PM CST. Well the September Contest is finally here. I have been pretty much MIA for a little over a week to take care of some offline "stuff." By the way, it is nigh on impossible to blog by cell phone. I am back now though and getting into the groove again and felt like giving something away! The contest rules are simple. Of course I can't make them totally idiot proof, last month proved that :), because there will always be some "brilliant" idiot that makes it through all the idiot proofing in place.

And The Winner Is.....4 Real This Time Folks

Well here it is folks! This is the post you have all been waiting for. I know the suspense is killing you. After my teaser post yesterday folks started getting hostile :) . So I figured I better reveal the answer and the winner before I get tracked down by an angry mob. Well now that I have run through all of that let me get on with things. And the answer is..... The nickname of Cman started way back my freshman year of high school. It really only stuck because some silly freshman girls thought it sounded funny. The actual person that started the whole thing was the varsity basketball coach Steve. He first called me Cman and like I said once the girls heard it it and thought it funny it stuck. That stupid Cman nickname has stuck every since. I really don't mind and many friends from high school still tease me about it to this day. OK already what the F does the C stand 4? Well I have to admit to a bit of what the lawyers would call a leading question. I really did think though that
