My New Pinterest Plugin
Pinterest is a hugely powerful social media site. One of the major flaws is that it is easy for your images to get shared and lose the attribution back to you. We just created a plugin that has just gone on sale as a special offer on the Warrior Forum which does the following: Ultimate Image Security – Adds a Watermark to your Images so no matter how often it gets shared people will [...]
Read more »Facebook Timeline – First Impressions
So Timeline has been officially on us now for coming on for a week, although many of us have been using it for a bit longer since it first launched back at the beginning of March. As the dust settles lets take a look at some first impressions. As a side note, I feel rather bad as there are no graphics in this post at all! I may get round to changing that, or [...]

Facebook have just released the new Timeline. It is available for page admins to use now and they can either publish it now or it will be switched over for everyone in theory on March the 30th. There are a couple of things worth noting: 1) You can no longer set a default tab, although you can still link to the custom tab in your advertising and on your websites 2) You can have [...]

One of my goals for 2012 is to start publishing some quality books on Kindle. I have almost finished writing my first one. I just picked up this case study from Dennis Becker: ==>http://findthis.at/kindlestudy As one of the reviewers in the sales thread on the Warrior Forum states: “You are one of the most honest and down-to-earth WSO creators I know.” I am a huge fan of Dennis as apart from anything else he [...]

Well it was rumoured to be coming. Now it looks as though it is due towards the end of February. According to an article on Co Create (http://www.fastcocreate.com/1679443/facebook-update-yes-brands-are-coming-to-facebook-timeline-open-graph), Carol Everson, VP of global marketing solutions at Facebook was quoted as saying: “”There’s a lot of speculation [about Timeline]. The goal has always been to have your personal experience on Facebook not be so different than the brand or page experience. And right now, it is [...]

It is interesting. Since my client first approached me asking if I had seen the White House Squeeze page, I have been paying much more attention to President Obama’s marketing strategies. We then wrote and developed a nifty plugin for creating squeeze pages just like on the White House, which you can read more about at http://www.presidentiallistbuildingmachine.com I didn’t realise, perhaps not being an American that in 2008 he won the 2008 Marketer of [...]

On the 17th December just 8 days before Christmas the Philippines was hit by Typhoon Sendong, which is apparently the worst natural disaster of 2011. With over 100,000 people displaced and over 1,000 dead this is an enormous tragedy which has had far too little media coverage. I had a message from one of the people who worked out there giving me a small idea of how terrible the situation was. So with Joe [...]

Read more »Facebook Custom Page Tab Change
Facebook have just made a change where you need to create your custom page tabs and attach them to your Facebook pages in a slightly different way. It is actually very straight forward and we are in the process of integrating this directly into my plugin, however until this is done you will need to do the following: For every new page tab you will need to visit this URL: http://www.facebook.com/dialog/pagetab?app_id=YOUR_APP_ID&next=YOUR_URL where YOUR_APP_ID is the [...]
Read more »Webhosting Reviews
As Cyber Monday in the United States is almost upon us this seems like a pretty good time to do a review of Webhosting. I use three different webhosts and I thought I would do a brief overview of all three below and give an honorable mention to a webhost that I don’t use but several people I respect do. Number 1: Probably my first option for people when starting out at buying their [...]
