			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>These days, it seems like everyone is jumping on the Affilate Marketing banwagon and trying to get their hands in the money pie.  The truth of the matter is, 90 percent of affiliates make a total of 10 percent of all the affiliate revenue generated.  The remaining 10 percent of affiliates make the rest of 90 percent of all affiliate income!</p>
<p>Those top 10 percent affiliate earners can be classified as Super Affiliate and this British gentleman, Kieron Donoghue surely belongs in the upper class.  Kieron is the owner and director of UK Offer Media Ltd, and he specializes in making money online through affiliate deals in his many diverse websites and blogs.</p>
<p>Kieron&#8217;s official <a href="http://www.here.org.uk" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.here.org.uk');">Affiliate Marketing blog</a> can be found <a href="http://www.here.org.uk" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.here.org.uk');">here</a>, or rather strangely named <a href="http://www.here.org.uk" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.here.org.uk');">here.org.uk</a>.  For all his expertise and track records in affiliate marketing, Kieron could do well to nail a more relevant key term in his domain name to better optimize search engine traffic. I really can&#8217;t see any connection between &#8220;here&#8221; and affiliate marketing.</p>
<p><span id="more-226"></span></p>
<p>Being based in the UK, Kieron&#8217;s writings about Affiliate Marketing are naturally skewed towards affiliate programs and networks in UK.  However, the tips and advices he dispenses transcend all time and boundaries and can be applied by all affiliate marketers.  Besides blogging about his bread and butter topics like Affiliate Marketing, Affiliate Networks and Affiliate Programs, Kieron also include some personal stuff and adds a personal touch at the end of every post by telling you what music he&#8217;s listening to right now.</p>
<p>It is safe to say that Kieron has a special liking for cars, the whiter the merrier, as a couple of his posts which I enjoyed, will attest to that claim.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.here.org.uk/2007/10/white-is-the-new-black-for-cars-that-is.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.here.org.uk');">White Is The New Black</a></li>
</ul>

</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.here.org.uk/2007/10/auto-marketing-creative-and-original.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.here.org.uk');">Auto Marketing</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Here.org.uk recently got a blog redesign done by Uniue Blog Designs and Kieron has teamed up with Nate to give you a complete blog overhaul </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m sure most of you have noticed on many blogs, a little sidebar widget called &#8220;Showoff Rankings&#8221;, but how many of you actually know the creator of this cool Wordpress plugins? Well, the creator is none other than Jon Lee of Jon Lee dot see eh.</p>
<p>Jon is a Chinese-Canadian who has been involved with Internet for 20 years! He created his first fan site on Geocities when he was only 12! Jon has indeed come a long way since his Geocities days and had gained lots of experience in web development. All this translate to online credibility which you can trust when reading his experience Jon shared on his <a href="http://www.jonlee.ca" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.jonlee.ca');">Web Development Blog</a>.  It is thus not surprising that Jon had been touted as the brainy one, cloned as &#8220;Boba Fett&#8221; in <a href="http://www.cashforcomments.com/beauty-vs-brains/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.cashforcomments.com');">Blogging The Movie&#8217;s magazine vol. 2</a>.</p>
<p>With Jon&#8217;s consent, I am submitting this post as a combination of his <a href="http://www.jonlee.ca/free-backlink" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.jonlee.ca');">PR4 linkback promotion</a> as well as his latest contest to <a href="http://www.jonlee.ca/giveaway-worlds-smallest-microsd-card-reader/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.jonlee.ca');">win the world&#8217;s smallest MircoSD card reader</a>.  My newly migrated blog could really use some high value linklove and the microSD card reader will really come in handy as I won&#8217;t have to use the normal SD card adapter when I want to transfer or read files from MicroSD card.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently this blog <a href="http://www.cashforcomments.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.cashforcomments.com');">get paid</a> a free review from Cash for Comments&#8217; free ReviewMe promotion.  How does one earn a free review, you might wonder? Well, it is very easy, simply leave 5 genuine comments on the blog and email Mr P and ask for your free review. It is a very simple but effective way to promote a blog and ensure stickiness by driving traffic and comments to the blog.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_DMyOWNROTsk/RpN42y5uk0I/AAAAAAAAATQ/J3702XtW_lY/s1600-h/Cash+flow.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/bp2.blogger.com');"><img src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_DMyOWNROTsk/RpN42y5uk0I/AAAAAAAAATQ/J3702XtW_lY/s320/Cash+flow.jpg" style="cursor: pointer" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5085541287003591490" border="0" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center">The above image is a self-explanatory flowchart of the free ReviewMe promotion.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cashforcomments.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.cashforcomments.com');">CASH for COMMENTS</a> was started on 18 June 2007, only 3 weeks ago, and it has already gotten on the Google first page for search term &#8220;free reviewme&#8221;. What an impressive achievement for a new <a href="http://www.cashforcomments.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.cashforcomments.com');">blog site</a> and this goes to show that a simple but revolutionary idea goes a long way. The frequent &#8220;Free ReviewMe Batches&#8221; posted will attest to the popularity of the promotion, besides that, you can also find other interesting articles.</p>
<p><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_DMyOWNROTsk/RpN4TS5ukzI/AAAAAAAAATI/_8Tvb5PMZgQ/s1600-h/speech+bubble+1.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/bp0.blogger.com');"><img src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_DMyOWNROTsk/RpN4TS5ukzI/AAAAAAAAATI/_8Tvb5PMZgQ/s200/speech+bubble+1.jpg" style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 141px; height: 149px" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5085540677118235442" border="0" /></a>There is nothing negative to critique about the content, writing style and posting frequency.  If I may suggest, I would ask Mr P to consider changing the header image to something that closely resemble his blog mission in order to strengthen his already strong branding. I feel the current image of a highway does not gel well with the cash bag contained in a speech bubble.  And for a blog build on comments as its main focus, it is rather strange not to see the Top Commentators plugin installed.</p>
<p>This is a new blog which had exploded off the starting block, I&#8217;m sure Mr P will ride the momentum he had created so far and continue his good work to grow the blog.  Now if you would excuse me, I&#8217;m off to getting my 5 comments from that sneaky bastard!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For those of you constantly on the lookout for fellow bloggers to do review exchanges and swap links(to increase PR ranking), you will understand how time consuming and tedious this process is. What if I tell you there is a way for you to simply submit your site to one centralized network and easily and efficiently colloborate with other bloggers on review writing? Something similar to the convenience of ReviewMe marketplace. I found this godsend website which does exactly that in the form of <a href="http://www.reviewback.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.reviewback.com');">Reviewback.com</a></p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_DMyOWNROTsk/RnOStPXpABI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/1OfcHWbEfqs/s1600-h/reviewback+copy.jpg" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/bp2.blogger.com');"><img src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_DMyOWNROTsk/RnOStPXpABI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/1OfcHWbEfqs/s400/reviewback+copy.jpg" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5076562510894137362" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Conceived in May 2007, Reviewback aims to be the world&#8217;s first, free review exchange marketplace. It provide tools to quickly add your site to their network and instantly begin communicating with other bloggers and writers in your same niche and target audience. There is no limit to how many reviews you can receive: as long as you are willing to write for others, they will write for you. You are meeting like-minded fellow bloggers, remember?</p>
<p>Founded by Nick Mazza, his hope is to provide not only an effective way of promoting content and building links, but also of receiving honest criticism and comments from fellow writers so that you can continue to improve and develop your site/product.</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_DMyOWNROTsk/RnOUmfXpACI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/3K44k6RZ6yo/s1600-h/reviewback1+copy.jpg" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/bp3.blogger.com');"><img src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_DMyOWNROTsk/RnOUmfXpACI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/3K44k6RZ6yo/s400/reviewback1+copy.jpg" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5076564593953275938" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Registration is free, and sign up process is a breeze. You&#8217;ll need to input some basic standard information about your blog (e.g. blog title, description, tags, relevant category, feeds url etc.) and you are ready to rock! Once those info are submitted successfully, you can start browsing the network of blogs from many different categories and start trading reviews with fellow bloggers!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I had blog about <a href="http://kumikosuzuki.blogspot.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/kumikosuzuki.blogspot.com');">Kumiko&#8217;s Cash Quest </a>earlier, having participated in her &#8220;<a href="http://kumikosuzuki.blogspot.com/2007/04/my-new-google-pagerank-discussed-really.html" target="_blank" ref="http://kumikosuzuki.blogspot.com/2007/03/win-30-plus-prizes-by-predicting-my.html">Predict My PageRank</a>&#8220;contest, where I boldy predicted a PR6 but narrowly missed the actual result as she got a <a target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/kumikosuzuki.blogspot.com');">PR5</a> in the latest update. I did not win the $30 cash price, nor did I get to guest blog on her blog (priceless), but that is all water under the bridge now.</p>
<p><a href="http://kumikosuzuki.blogspot.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/kumikosuzuki.blogspot.com');">Kumiko&#8217;s Cash Quest</a> is one of my daily must-read blog, her writing style is witty and funny, and at times, edging towards being sarcastic. She writes wonderful, flowing posts, offering great tips and resources, useful for newbies and seasoned bloggers alike. Viewing her weekly earnings report is a great source of motivation for me.</p>
<p>I got hooked on Kumiko&#8217;s blog after enjoying myself reading her post on &#8220;<a href="http://kumikosuzuki.blogspot.com/2007/02/6-lessons-britney-spears-can-teach-you.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/kumikosuzuki.blogspot.com');">6 Lessons Britney Spears can Teach You about Blogging</a>&#8220;, it&#8217;s funny and informative at the same time. More recently, her post on &#8220;<a href="http://www.cashquests.com/2007/05/6-free-ways-to-turbo-charge-your-blog.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.cashquests.com');">6 Free Ways to Turbo-chargeYour Blog</a>&#8221; offered some great tips which I&#8217;ve implemented some, like getting a make-over, installing a favicon and joining the &#8220;<a href="http://betshopboy.blogspot.com/2007/05/u-comment-i-follow.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/betshopboy.blogspot.com');">DoFollow</a>&#8221; movment.</p>
<p>I just notice her blogging tips mostly come in 6s, does Kumiko has some kind of fetish with the number 6? Then why didn&#8217;t she get a PR6 for the last update?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For this blog review, let&#8217;s take a look at the <a href="http://www.matthuggins.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.matthuggins.com');">Entrepreneurial Blog of Matt Huggings</a>. If you believe his tag line, Matt Huggings is an aspiring internet entrepreneur who is using his blog to show you how to make money online. This blog is hosted on a standard 2 column Wordpress &#8220;Beach House&#8221; theme and if you look hard enough, you can find Matt showing you some Blogging <a href="http://www.matthuggins.com/2007/05/04/blogging-seo-basics/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.matthuggins.com');">SEO basics for Wordpress blog</a>.</p>
<p>Matt is trying to get out of the 9-5 job scene and into a comfortable work-from-home environment. He is working hard online to achieve some great vision of his and get some of his projects kick-started. So you can bet Matt is talking the talk and walking the walk.</p>
<p>Besides working on his <a href="http://www.matthuggins.com/projects/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.matthuggins.com');">mega project </a>of completing an online dating website and several other smaller scale projects, he is also running a &#8220;<a href="http://www.matthuggins.com/2007/05/11/make-money-from-your-blog/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.matthuggins.com');">Make Money from Yor Blog</a>&#8221; series where he&#8217;ll touched on different monetization opportunities in Adervetising, Affiliate, and Sponsored Post Programs. I caught up on a few posts of the series and I must say, the articles are very informative, incorporating screenshots of the &#8220;how-tos&#8221; and &#8220;where-tos&#8221; to achieve better visualization for his readers. The amount of details that Matt put into those posts are huge, so huge that I actually find them too lengthy at times.</p>
<p>In an effort to get reciprocal links with other blog authors and publishers, Matt is offering a <a href="http://www.matthuggins.com/2007/03/16/mutual-blog-review" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.matthuggins.com');">mutual blog review</a> program (similar to my <a href="http://betshopboy.blogspot.com/2007/04/review-exchange-link-swap.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/betshopboy.blogspot.com');">Review exchange</a> campaign). If you are planning or are already on the path to monetizing your blog, this <a href="http://www.matthuggins.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.matthuggins.com');">Entrepreneurial Blog of Matt Huggings </a>offers great money making ideas and resources to start with.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is not often that someone appear in your life and exert a positive influence that results in a life-changing experience that shape your life. My online &#8220;guardian angel&#8221; appear in the form of <a href="http://www.chrismerriman.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.chrismerriman.com');">Chris Merriman</a>, who, with his encouraging words and kind advices, had and will shape and guide my online life, and influence how my blog will turn out.</p>
<p>I stumble upon Chris&#8217;s &#8220;<a href="http://www.chrismerriman.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.chrismerriman.com');">Kazakhstan Blog</a>&#8220;, from John Chow&#8217;s &#8220;Review My Blog&#8221; and wrote to him to request for <a href="http://betshopboy.blogspot.com/2007/04/technorati-favourites-exchange_14.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/betshopboy.blogspot.com');">Technorati Favourite</a> and <a href="http://betshopboy.blogspot.com/2007/04/review-exchange-link-swap.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/betshopboy.blogspot.com');">review exchange</a>. What I got in return was his Fave exchange and more, much more! Chirs offered his kind advices, commented in my blog posts and also send his advices via email. Chris had also posted a flattering <a href="http://www.chrismerriman.com/index.php/archives/757" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.chrismerriman.com');">review of my blog</a>. I felt totally humbled and honoured.</p>
<p><strong>So who is Chris Merriman?<br />
</strong>In his own words, posted as a sort of online CV, &#8220;<em>Chris Merriman is an enthusiastic &amp; skilled IT specialist with a record of success in user support. He is experienced in the implementation and use of major software applications and operating systems. Self-motivated and able to interface and work effectively with all levels within an organisation and an effective problem solver with the ability to apply new solutions to current situations</em>.&#8221;</p>
<p>His enthusiasm and expertise in IT skills is evidence in his blog, I can totally vouch for that from his advise and solution about the casues of my blog&#8217;s slow loading time. If Chris can reach out to me, a total stranger who is thousands of miles away, and mentored me and exerts influence to my blog in a positive way, I do not see any reason to doubt his ability to interface and work effectively with all levels within an organisation.</p>
<p>Needless to say, <a href="http://www.chrismerriman.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.chrismerriman.com');">ChrisMerriman dot com </a>will feature highly on my daily must-read blog, if anything, you should visit his site regulary for interesting articles and/or money making resource/tips, internet news and much much more!</p>
<p>Oh, by the way, did I mentioned Chris is a Pet Shop Boy fan?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this second instalment of mini blog reviews, I&#8217;ll review 3 blogs which I&#8217;ve come across. Not in random order, here goes my review:</p>
<p>Sarah over at &#8220;<a href="http://www.somewhereoverthedebt.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.somewhereoverthedebt.com');">Somewhere Over the Debt</a> &#8211; A girl&#8217;s Journey to Make Money Online&#8221; started the blog to share her efforts of creating <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/how-you-can-make-money-online" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.squidoo.com');">multiple streams of income</a> and her journey towards being <a href="http://www.networthiq.com/people/somewhereoverthedebt" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.networthiq.com');">debt</a> free. With her ninja marketing skills and web design skills, she had set out to make a living making money online so that she can be free to live life on her own terms and be in control of her finances.</p>
<p>The blog&#8217;s header graphic depicts the blog title with 3 doves flying pass a 6-colors rainbow.<br />
Why only 6 colors? Shouldn&#8217;t a rainbow have 7 colors? Well, my best guess is that once Sarah becomes debt free from her online money making venture, the 7th colors will appear! Seeing this picture coupled with the title, reminds me of the song &#8220;Somewhere Over the Rainbow&#8221;.</p>
<p>Sarah is a single mom, a graphic/wed designer, musician and online marketing ninja, all rolled into one beautiful package. She is available for freelance design projects like web design, blog design, print projects and so on. Visit her portfolio at <a href="http://www.youarestellar.com" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.youarestellar.com');">Stellar Creative Studio</a>.</p>
<p>Next up, we &#8216;travel&#8217; to Malaysia to uncover some &#8220;hidden conspiracies&#8221;.<br />
There is nothing freaky about &#8220;<a href="http://www.miriguy.com" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.miriguy.com');">Hidden Conspiracies</a>&#8220;, which is a blog started by a guy from a city called Miri, in Sarawak, to <a href="http://www.miriguy.com" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/www.miriguy.com');">make money on the Internet</a>. This blog is inspired by Darren Rowse at problogger.net and is where he documents his journey to make money as a problogger and other various means to achieve his goal to be a millionaire before he reaches 30 years old.<br />
most of the blog post are either about his journal and money making ideas. So, if you are interested to find out about making money online, please do stop by.</p>
<p>Our last stop for this mini review bring us to India, where a 17 year old boy will show us many tips and tricks of blogging via his blog, &#8220;<a href="http://iblog-youblog.blogspot.com/" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/iblog-youblog.blogspot.com');">I Blog &#8211; You Blog</a>&#8220;. I first stumble on this blog in March and got really interested with his blog post &#8220;<a href="http://iblog-youblog.blogspot.com/2007/03/extremely-effective-way-of-blogging.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/iblog-youblog.blogspot.com');">Extremely effective way of blogging</a>&#8221; where he posted a step-by-step tutorial with screenshots, of using voice recognition tool for blogging! What a cool idea!</p>
<p>I was very impressed by his strong knowledge in blogging, considering his tender age. His blog is ads-free, a rare find nowadays, where every blogs in the blogosphere seems to be monetized.<br />
He is in the process of changing his blog to a <a href="http://iblog-youblog.blogspot.com/2007/04/my-new-template.html" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/iblog-youblog.blogspot.com');">new template</a> and he had promised his new template, when completed, will be damn sexy. Check it out for yourself and prepare to be impress.</p>
<p><a href="http://technorati.com/tag/blog+review" rel="tag" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outbound/technorati.com');"><img src="http://static.technorati.com/static/img/pub/icon-utag-16x13.png?tag=blog+review" style="border: 0px none ; margin-left: 0.4em; vertical-align: middle" alt=" " />blog review</a></p>
