Internet Marketing with a Helmet.

I wrote this script after I built my first Wordpress datafeed site.   After I loaded up the site, I realized that I had 5,000+ posts all made on the same day!   Rather than repost everything, I wrote this quick script.  Hopefully someone may find it useful. What it Does This script will connect to your Wordpress database and change the post dates on all of your posts to random dates.  You can define the range of dates by setting the two ...

Sometimes, little things bug me. I've been running a bunch of PPV traffic lately and for awhile now, I've noticed that Prosper202 doesn't have icons for DirectCPV or LeadImpact. This is most noticeable in the Overview and the Spy view where traffic from both of these networks gets stamped with the question mark icon. When you just see a question mark, you need to hover over it with your mouse to figure out what traffic source it is. And ...

Since I made the “PPV Landing Page Rotation” post a few days ago, quite a few people had asked me how to go about doing offer rotation as well. As usual, there’s more than one way to skin a cat. I’m going to show you the “right” way to do this.  By doing it right, we are going to preserve all of Tracking202’s trackyness.  However, doing shit right always takes more time.  So I would be remiss to not point out a slick way to ...

Read the comments in the file, you’ll figure ...

Purpose: To hide ugly, complex, or affiliate code laden URLs from the user.  The idea is this: when the user hovers over a link, he will see the destination URL in the ...

Even with the recent news about the FTC cracking down on flogs and fake review sites, people are still doing this stuff.  Case in point, Nicky Cake's Build Solid Automated Product Sites With Wordpress post of a couple weeks ago.   I guess people just figure this will be ...

Anyone following affiliate marketing knows that the days of using a quick & dirty landing page with the big PPC engines is long gone. For better or worse, Google's stupid "Quality Score" fired the first shot and other PPC engines followed.
