Increasing Alexa Rank - A Joint Experiment
I have 2 sites now so I can see first-hand how inaccurate Alexa Ranks can be, which are supposed to measure the level of traffic a site gets. The inaccuracies are created because Alexa relies on measuring how many users who have installed the Alexa IE toolbar.
For many sites these inaccuracies aren’t an [...]
What Do You Think Of The New Vizu Poll Formats?
Those of you using Vizu Polls may have noticed that the design of the polls have changed recently. With the old format site owners could format the Vizu Poll to blend in with their site, whereas now the polls have a new bolder look.
I’m not a big fan of the new look as I [...]
Apple iPhone Received $400m In Free Publicity
According to Harvard Business School professor David Yoffie the Apple iPhone has already received $400m in free publicity, thanks to so many sites talking non-stop about it for about a month after the iPhones launch:

Feedback On Using Intellitxt And Adsense At The Same Time

My question is, how can I monetise some of this forum traffic? In [...]
Quigo Gives Google Adsense Something To Think About
Although I love Google, I’m not a big fan of how it dominates just about everything it touches. I wouldn’t quite say that Google has a midas touch, but most things it touches does turn into gold.
I read a story yesterday from the NY Times which restored my faith in the ability of the internet [...]
Improve The Performance Of Your Alternate Urls Using Openads
Although, I’ve seen a few posts that explain the benefits of setting up Alternate Url Ads for your adsense ads ( like my own), but I haven’t seen anyone write about using Openads to ensure that the best performing ads are displayed.

Free Banner Advertising Offer Still Open
Despite offering to run free banners on my sites in my unsold slots I’ve received very few banners, which has surprised me. It’s not too late to send me any banners that you want to be served. These will be served whenever a paid for ad isn’t displayed on Connected Internet. The [...]
