I don’t normally read e-books, but I checked out John Chow’s new Ultimate Blog Profit e-book and it inspired me to get into e-mail marketing. I’ve done e-mail marketing half assed on Gator Envy for years, but never really given it the attention it deserved.
I ditched Mail Chimp and signed up for Aweber (affiliate link). [...]

Playing With Adobe Illustrator

I’ve been playing with Adobe Illustrator a lot lately – man is it fun. Don’t know where this program has been all my life. I love checking out free vector websites and trying to build designs. I’m really trying to tone my graphic design skills – it will definitely cut out on a lot of [...]

Changed Wordpress Theme for 2 Sites

This morning I changed the wordpress theme for two of my sites: Tim Tebow Zone and Assassin’s Creed 2. They were both pretty standard designs and kind of ugly considering the volume of traffic that they bring in. It was definitely time to update them with new looks and new features.

The Wibiya Toolbar

You’ve all probably seen this toolbar on websites and blogs, but you might not know where it came from. The Wibiya toolbar pops up at the bottom of your screen when you visit a website that has it installed.

Dragon Dictation iPhone App Review

Upgrading Hosting During the Holidays

A couple of years ago, I used to run 2 dedicated servers and a VPS. Since then, I’ve dropped the dedicateds (to save money) and house all my sites not on a single, powerful VPS. A VPS is nice because it’s a lot cheaper than a dedicated server, and with most hosting companies VPS’s are [...]

Assassin’s Creed 2 Drops

Ubisoft’s most highly anticipated game of the year finally hit the stores yesterday. Assassin’s Creed 2 is a follow up to the original game, which came out in 2007. This is relevant to me because I run an Assassin’s Creed 2 fansite. Traffic is up 120% over last week and I’m loving the additional revenue [...]

The Best Business Blogs to Follow

I got my November issue of Inc. Magazine in the mail a few days ago – Yes, I still subscribe to the magazine even when all their featured articles can be found online for free. One of the articles I felt was blog worthy is titled “19 Blogs You Should Bookmark Right Now.” There are [...]

What Have I Been Up To?

The truth is not much really. You don’t see a lot of blog posts on here anymore for a few reasons: 1, I am not as active in websites/internet marketing as I was 2-3 years ago and 2, I just don’t have a lot of time any more to blog. Now, this may change a [...]
