    Amazon Associates Issues Custom Commission Tables to Some Affiliates

    I received an email and I saw the table. My main category remained unchanged, and a secondary category was bumped. The funny thing is that I went back to take a screenshot and post it here, and now Amazon's comparative table is gone. I went back to the email and clicked their link, but the...

    Just Sold My Portfolio for 7 Figures USD, AMA.

    Congratulations on the sale. I appreciate you doing this. How's your tax situation after the sale? Were the sites registered to a company? If so, where's the company registered? Did your specific setup help you reduce the tax burden from the sale? How? Thanks for taking the time. Good luck on...

    How do you best prepare for an authority website sale?

    OTOH, if you get paid over two different tax years, you might fall into a lower income tax bracket. You mentioned more than once about your tax situation, so think about that. Obviously get a lawyer for your protection, a CPA to review your numbers according to your unique situation, etc. But a...

    Better Call Saul (Potential for spoilers)

    This show is one of my favorites too. I love the old-school marketing stuff he does - park benches, yellow pages, TV ads in odd hours, billboards, and so on. This is a 32-min video that explores many possibilities for BCS final season. It was one of the best YT productions I've ever seen...

    Domains Odys Global - the leading marketplace for premium aged domains

    This is exactly what I was looking for since I first read @Ryuzaki s thread but I didn't know how to even begin searching for a quality domain like that. Thanks for the review. I've just started a couple of new sites and a domain like that will help a lot. @Alex_ODYSGLOBAL thanks for offering...

    Itchy eyes in the Caribbean?

    A 3% solution of boric acid (in water) helps a great deal in reducing swollen eyes. Works best if left in the fridge and applied over the eyes using one of those round-cotton-girl-thingies. I'm trying to find it in English but I can't. Wikipedia has only a French page...

    Publish Date, Last Updated, Query Deserves Freshness, & Google Fresh Rank

    I'm savvy enough to look at the date published in gray on white in the SERPs (which should correspond to the "updated date". My vertical has many 40-60 y.o. men who might not pay attention to it, or whose eyes could catch the "2020" in from the SERP title more easily. It has bigger contrast...

    LinkBuildr WP Plugin Review

    @CCarter that WP plugin sounds like it could accelerate your reverse guest post traffic leak strategy by bringing automation to 90% of the steps involved. It almost makes me want to return to WP.

    I'm thinking about working towards a sale, but...

    Any reason not to set aside a couple of hours and come up with a new domain for a new brand? If you gave the domain issue some thought right now, and threw a few articles on it already, you'd be able to age it during the six months you're figuring out the PPC part of the equation. A new domain...

    Genius Accuses Google of Stealing Their Lyrics - Used Morse Code as Evidence

    The truth is, G is using all of us. Increasing AI development and leeching off users on one side and increasingly concentrating market share and tightening its claws over webmasters. Both totally valid moves BTW. Quem pode mais, chora menos, or "those [who are] more powerful, cry less" is a...

    The Amazon Associates Program - Is it Broken?

    Perhaps I misunderstood the topic -- and you can blame my English on that, but I believe one of the reasons is Amazon Prime. While removing S&H costs has increased the amount of purchases, the average ticket has decreased. Instead of buying the $xxx products I review and recommend, people go...

    Finding motivation At $100k A Year

    I have never been homeless, but my current situation is far from ideal. I have very, very little spare money to do groceries and eat properly. And this has been like that for the past 5 years or so. With that said, I kinda sorta understand where you come from. And I fully understand your...

    I'm thinking about starting a physical service or selling a physical product

    Except for the concussion part, are you me? For me, going outside and doing physical things with my hands helps a lot. A few years ago, I made wine - as in picking grapes, crushing them, monitoring the fermentation, waiting the few months, and going back to the big barrel to refill a couple of...

    Question about building local saas?

    A bigger global competitor could also mean an exit strategy. Start-ups get acquired all the time for their dev teams, patents, market share, and so on. If they are willing to dump money on local development, they could also be willing to buy my customer list. Give me half in cash, half in...

    Question about building local saas?

    My short answer to your question is yes, I believe you can make it work. Being a local, you could be in a position to understand the market and your customer better and faster than any foreigner. You could also provider faster answers to your customers needs. (Keep in mind I am not a programmer...

    Question about building local saas?

    I am far from being an expert, but this is what immediately draws my attention: It looks like you have the programming and the competition analysis done, but you haven't talked much about how you are going to market your idea, who is your target customer, price points, timelines, and so on...
