Nice ;) Keep us updated your experience with Pro. I actually just discovered the Pro Upwork network when I got an email from PayPal promoting a free 3-month trial to their vetted recruiting service. I never knew this even existed. They charge $149/mo + 10% service fee on every payment...

Did you apply to their "Pro" writer service? I would definitely do that if you haven't. https://pro.upwork.com/writers.html?channel=client_page How is Pro different from Upwork.com? Pro has been created with the goal of connecting the best clients and opportunities with the best writers on...

I tried using their comparison tool a few times for car insurance and they didn't even have my state available. I was surprised at the limited options available. Then I had read Google failed to get some of the biggest insurers and lenders to participate so that is the likely problem and why...

What amazes me the most about so many millennials is their naivety and complete lack of good judgement with the interwebs. Teenagers I get posting dumb things online. But when you are 25 and well into adulthood one really needs to think twice before hitting that submit button. It's the...

He is a piece of sh*t. Everyone focuses on the "price gouging" but what he is being charged for is his time as a sham hedge fund manager. He was faking documents and lying to his investors and bilking them for millions of $$. According to the SEC’s complaint filed in federal district court in...

Wow, the DHI Group just completed the sale of SourceForge and Slashdot to Bizx LLC literally 7-days ago. As they say, "timing is everything". http://fossforce.com/2016/01/sourceforge-and-slashdot-have-been-sold/ Looks like SourceForge and Slashdot were doing around $15 - 16M in revenue per year.

$3.2M settlement? Wow, they gottem' good! lulz Lawyers take = $1M "The Court did not decide in favor of Plaintiffs or Defendants. Instead, both sides agreed to a settlement."

I love their reviews as well. I stumbled across thewirecutter in 2012 after the New York Times did this piece about the owner, Brian Liam. The site was only a year old at the time and it was more of a personal blog with his reviews...

Comparing tangible products and a content based site aren't really the same. With content driven sites like BuzzFeed, I wouldn't get too caught up with the design aspect. Viral Nova was launched on a Wordpress with a $50 theme that was available to anyone. It was already huge and doing...

The text ads with that arrow I've seen have all been just one-click to visit the ad.

Most competent hosts will migrate your site for free or for a small fee. Just ask them. Edit: FAQ on Knownhost https://www.knownhost.com/frequently-asked-questions.html Will you migrate my hosting account/websites from another provider? Yes, as long as your are using the same control...

I see these arbitrage plays constantly on Yahoo front page over the last decade. Publishers seem to come and go over time with different tactics and type of content. The viral theme is definitely "it" right now. All of these types of sites seem to have a short shelf life so one has to...

Yeah, no surprises with Verizon and their campaigns. Or any Fortune 500 company really when it comes to online spending. It's still a relatively small budget for any of these blue chip companies in the big picture. It's a strategy mix of dominating market share, branding and trying to...

No, adsense is the best choice for general content especially if you are a lone wolf who doesn't have time to manage ads and advertisers all day long. Google has plenty of ad inventory and they do everything for you. Again, I'm talking about general news type content where you aren't trying to...

It's all random. Not everyone is going to see the same type of ad due to a number of variables (location, demographics, type of device, iOS vs Android, etc., Google is constantly testing... This is what I see: a banner ad and then a blue arrow (remarketing)

Well, that particular ad (not-the-pill.com > NuvaRing.com is likely remarketing - i'm sure it's related to some other article or info you (or someone else) were visiting in the past. Google makes it extremely easy for the advertiser to exclude any particular site they don't want to advertise...

I'm signed up with quite a few retailers email newsletters as well and I've found the companies below to be quite aggressive with their email marketing (daily basis). ebay.com big5sportinggoods.com SportsAuthority.com Costco.com Amazon.com allows you to pick and choose what emails you receive...

Weird, I get blasted on a daily basis from Sears.com and their ShopYourWay.com ... especially the ShopYourWay.com program... they are incredibly aggressive with their email marketing even during the non-holiday seasons.

If you do use a press release service I would use one of the major players like PRnewswire.com Google punished quite a few of these services last year and PRnewswire seemed to be one of the few that have recovered nicely since then. I saw SEO's frequently abusing SBwire.com and PRweb.com so...

Google launched contributor exactly a year ago to test this on a sample of sites so they already have the data if this a viable solution to adblocker. It must make sense on their end if they are going to roll it out across the board. As mentioned above, you should be more worried about...
