Google Wave
06.04.09 | WebI just joined the Adversal Publisher Network. The network pays you for your ad inventory and you’ll never have to worry about your ad space going unsold again. Adversal pays up to $1.40 per 1,000 page views. That’s equal to $7.00* per 1,000 unique visitors! Plus, their ad serving technology responds and loads quickly so that your users aren’t left hanging and you aren’t left with wasted inventory. To join the Adversal Publisher Network click here and you would give me a referral. That’s another avenue to get money from Adversal.
Trip To The Keys
05.29.09 | LifeThis Memorial Day Weekend my and my lady’s fam headed to Key Largo, Florida. We rented out a trailer for the low-low at Bay Cove hotel and it had the coolest Tiki Hut. They dragged me to Key West and hit up the Southern Most Point which is 90 miles from Cuba. We almost lost the boat because we found it half sunk in the water. Check the pictures below.
I chose the Wordpress blogging platform over the others like Movable Type, Blogger and Text Pattern, because it has a great template system, it’s easy to use, and great for SEO. MyTypes have worked on taking Wordpress from okay for SEO to that next level. Most Wordpress free blog templates were not fully optimized, therefore they decided to do it themselves.
They also wrote a complete guide on how to fully optimize your copy of Wordpress including optimizing the templates and robots. Download an eCOPY for FREE Blogs & Internet Marketing Book Marketing Is A Contact Sport Sport by V.K. Singh and MyTypes.com.

Get Free Promotion with Mad Style
05.07.09 | Web
If you have a business, event, product, or anything online you would like to promote and gain another link back to your web page you should visit MadStyles.com. Mad Styles is a web site that works as a classifieds website where you can simply fill out a form with subject, description, keyword, select category and hit submit. Voilà! The best part is that it’s absolutely free after you register an account. I suggest editing your account by uploading a custom avatar picture of yourself. This not only personalizes your account but it would attract more eyes to wonder to your post, because it seperates you from the see of default icons. I bet you’ll find my post automatically.
New Twitter Background
05.04.09 | Social Media & Networks
Recently, Tight Designs, the same people who designed this website design, created a custom background for my Twitter page for only $50. It’s a great investment for a very low price. Most pro bloggers advise uploading a unique avatar and not using a basic background, because by uploading a custom background you prove you’re not a fly-by account creator and you would attract more visitors. Check out the design by going to twitter.com/fillup_banks.
Top 10 Lies Customers Tell Sales Reps
04.24.09 | Make MoneyI just read an article on BNET on the Top 10 Lies Customers Tell Sales Reps. Let’s face it, customers sometimes lie to try to get a discount or not paying at all. I know I’ve been the victim of this in the past.. and in the present. I’m waiting for a company, that I won’t say the name, said 30 days checks are sent. 30 Days have passed and I still haven’t received my check and they aren’t answering emails. After reading this article I’m pretty psyched to call them on the phone. Read the list of lies..
LIE #10: “We don’t have the budget.”
How often it’s actually true: About 25 percent of the time.
Why they tell this lie: This is shorthand for “we have budget money assigned to other projects that are considered higher priority.”
Your best response: Through questioning and conversation, gather information about where money is currently being spent. Once you’ve discovered what’s funded and why, reposition your offering and the value it provides so that it becomes higher priority than the budget items that are currently funded.
Trip To The Bahamas
04.23.09 | LifeI just came back from a cruise I took with my lady on the Norwegian Sky, which I don’t recommend. Unfortunately we couldn’t get to the second island due to the fact that a man fell over-board. My condolences go out to his family. We tried to make the best of it and arrived to Nassau in the Bahamas. We mostly hung out at Atlantis in Paradise Island. Here’s only a few of the many pictures we took.
Stay tuned for the video, once I get it editted.
I recently attended a HubSpot webinar about the importance of Social Media with special guest Brent Leary (@brentleary) . He spoke about various social media websites but mainly kept coming back to Twitter. It’s no wonder since it’s recent fame and popularity. You can’t turn on the news without hearing about it. Anyways, here’s some services in which you can take Twitter to that next level:
