It’s funny when you look at vintage advertising and think that this use to be cutting edge stuff.

Of course the internet is changing fast enough that two year old websites are vintage, as a matter of fact a lot of the new websites look a bit vintage as well. But then that’s another story.

Anyway I thought it might be cool to check out a couple of the old ads that use to be cutting edge. Guess one day people will be looking at our stuff and laughing as well.

The neat part is looking at some of the fonts and writing style, it’s the same way we are taught to write for websites now.

I spend a lot of time online looking for that perfect web design. As a matter of fact I’d say about 8 hours of the day is in search of the perfect web design. I make a lot of money off affiliate marketing and unlike most people in the online world my search is for a kickass web design that has the ability to convert.

I see web design blog after web design blog pointing out this cool design or that cool design but none of them have what I am looking for.

A cool design want make me money, unless it has the ability to convert.

Potential Buyers

There are a certain number of people that will make a purchase when visiting our website but the question is how many potential buyers are leaving our site without making a purchase?

A buyer is someone that made a purchase while on our site however, a potential buyer is someone that for one reason or another did not make a purchase. And of course there are also those people that landed on our site that would not make a purchase no matter what we did or who we were.

The perfect web design is not the cool looking flash site but rather the site that is able to convert the visitor into a buyer.

At this moment the number one site online for converting traffic into sales is http://www.proflowers.com/.

How to make $30,000.00 per Month

I ran across what I thought was going to be a very good topic by Jordan, however like most things on the web it fizzled out before ever hitting a high note.

This isn’t an attack on Jordan, as a matter of fact had it not been for Jordan I wouldn’t be writing this now.

The name of Jordan’s thread was the $3,000.00 per month Google AdSense project and he got the idea from the $30,000.00 per month Google AdSense project.

The $30,000.00 per month Google AdSense Project never made any money and was started by Collusion who stopped the project 2 months into it.

Both those threads gave me and some others the idea to build a website that would make $30,000.00 per a month. Unlike the other two projects we’ll give you access to everything we’re doing so you can see it come together step by step.

I’m about tired of getting spammed by Windows Live.

It’s the whole Black hat mentality of if I can’t compete, I’ll cheat however, the methods they are using are a couple years old. Not only are they unable to compete with Google but they are just as unable to use new black hat methods.

A couple years ago Black Hats used PrStorm to ping thousands of sites at a time, when a site was pinged, it would say that one person went to your site from [Black Hat URL here]. If the site publically publishes its referral logs (giving links to all sites that sent a ping), the black hat website would get a backlink.

Windows Live is now showing up in my referral logs saying my site is ranking for all kinds of crazy keywords on page one. Keywords like Internet, Design, Web, Website and the list goes on and on, the sad part is that my website is not ranking for those keywords.

And the problem is that my stats are becoming more and more misleading. As a matter of fact it seems that every time I make a blog post I get more of these fake referrals.

I went to look into this problem a bit and found this http://ekstreme.com/thingsofsorts/blogging/yell-if-microsofts-livecom-spammed-you-too, this http://www.seroundtable.com/archives/014720.html and this http://www.webmasterworld.com/msn_microsoft_search/3424476.htm and to make it worst it would appear that this problem has been going on for a couple years now.

I guess that means it isn’t going to stop anytime soon.

If Windows Live is going to go Black Hat they really need to do a better job.

I’ve come to believe that photo manipulation is a very neat form of art. As a matter of fact it’s one of the coolest; I could sit and look at photos that have been manipulated all day.

And I have to say that the I’m All Fake site is a really neat site with a very cool name. If you’re going to do photo manipulation I just don’t think you could come up with a better name for your website.

Below is some of his work and he does some really nice work.
