Posted on Wednesday 10th of September 2008 at 13:56 in The InternetPiracy and the prevention thereof is a popular topic on the Internet this week; with the eagerly anticipated "Spore" being released last Friday, forums around the world have sparked up debate about piracy once more. The reason for this is that EA introduced one of the most invasive and (in my eyes) sinister DRM systems known to man. This thing limits the amount of activations you can have (to only 3) and phones home periodically...

I have several review slots available for September still so get in touch as soon as possible if you'd like a product or service reviewed. As an example of what your $40 will get you, read the review recently posted of AffiliateTips.com.

You may have read a few other reviews scattered around the Internet because they seemingly went on a massive marketing spree, chalking up reviews on high profile blogs like JohnChow.com. T3leads.com is a pay-per-lead affiliate program - they say that "We provide our affiliates with an arsenal of promo tools that are constantly...

Your keywords are quantifiable; you know roughly how many clicks you'll be getting for the keywords you provide. However, the copy you use for the advert itself can have a massive impact upon your CTR. One of the weapons in your arsenal is 'keyword injection' and it can (when used properly) improve your CTR and ultimately make you more money....

Business seems to have been going well for them too and I'm glad, but I can only imagine that experiences like mine aren't conducive to new registrations.I'll just say that TNX works well, it's a good system and I've only seen good things with it. Unfortunately their "link calculator"...

I ask this because I've seen a distinct shift in the number of active participants on some of the bigger blogs within this niche, and it appears that the focus needs to remain on high quality information.The problem is that a lot of the high profile bloggers have stopped talking about the topic that engaged their readers; how...
read more and comment Posted on Saturday 26th of July 2008 at 10:35 in Make Money OnlineI've read somewhere that some online stores sniff your browser history using Javascript to determine what you've been looking at. So if I can tell you've been looking at Dell.com recently it makes sense to target advertising in that direction. Vendors like Dell can check whether you've been browsing competitor websites and therefore drag the best deals they have right under your nose in an attempt to steal a sale. This is quite...

Well, it's because I finally got around to creating and launching StevenYork.com - my own portfolio and web development blog.I'll be writing web development tutorials on there periodically so it's worth checking out. The other thing you'll probably notice is that the background for StevenYork.com is identical to the one used...

I've had it for months but seldom use it, so it wasn't until last weekend that I was able to sit down with it and formulate a review. Ironically, the new EEE-PC 900 is out imminently but I can't see myself being an early adopter for it.Last week I was contacted by the PR company who deal...
