    10 Golden Rules Internet Marketing Podcast

    http://podcast.tengoldenrules.com/

    One of my favorite podcasts.  Jay Berkowitz & team have been producing quality information-filled productions since episode 1 (and it has been fun to witness the growth of a successful podcasting effort).  I just pray that the focus continues to include beginner’s interests and doesn’t get too internet marketing insider-ish!  I even make a dorky call-in audio appearance on episode 11!

    Joe Balestrino's podcasts, according to the host site text, were some of the first SEO & internet marketing related podcasts offered.  In writing this item up I realized there are a number of these programs I haven't listened to yet!

    I'll update this as I find others of interest PLUS I haven't indulged in the batch of videocasts I've seen available on You Tube!

Do Pigs Hibernate?

Posted by admin on February 1st, 2008

According to the Pig Pals Sanctuary Site, commenting on the wintertime behavior of their porcine guests, “They sleep most of the time, are less interested in anything going on around them, and only seem to come alive at feed time and even then it is not to the same degree as the rest of the year.”

Wellll, THIS little piggy certainly resembles that description!Sleepy Piglets

Since before the holidays, I’ve felt like I’ve been in a state of mental hibernation. Even though in a strange sort of incongruous manner we’ve been VERY busy at the J-O-B. So busy to the point that I once again sacrificed vacation time that I was too busy to take before the hours were wiped at the end of the year! Maybe all that corporate crank turning has just left me a bit burned out. That, with the chilly temps, sure makes me crave a long snooze.

At least I have been pullng in some affiliate dollars that helped a lot at Christmas. And, so far, the sales have continued at a good pace through January. I had feared a post-Christmas season crash.

But, I really need to change the approach I’m using marketing these affiliate products. The current effort is way too hands-on and gets me involved in too many “housekeeping” details that the business could and should handle without so much of my involvement. I’ll work at getting this channel more Internet focused to allow me more bandwidth to pursue additional income streams … too much internet-marketing-speak, huh?

If you’ve found your way here somehow please leave a comment. I’m thinking about writing an eBook about how to create secret web sites, since I have extensive proven skills in that field.
