How to setup simple two-tier afilliate program in WordPress
WordPress has a plug-in Called WP Affiliate that plugs into the WordPress shopping cart using PayPal, or most other merchant gateways – it costs under $40 per site installation, and it is wonderful> we have set the cookies to last 365 days, so that our affiliates get paid on any referral resulting in a sale at 15%, or any recruited affiliate at 10% of gross sales, for one year after they are referred!
I have always wanted to do a direct marketing program for fun products and services that are fairly priced: where the money is in selling products, not business opportunity bubbles! The time has come:
Would you like to make 15% of gross sales for referring people here, and 10% of gross in overrides for their referrals for the first year? This is not Multilevel, only two levels and we actually have a wonderful list of products and services that everyone needs! sign up here:
2010 Internet | The Roar of Us talking to Each Other
User-generated, User-filtered content is the name of the game now: without it you will not compete is this quickly changing environment.

I here it almost everyday:
“Must I post, can’t you just make me rank on Google search without me having to do anything?”
The answer is yes, and not.
What good will it do you? Even if i know some ways to fool somebody into coming to your worthless, page, what would be the point?
Very soon (and is some ways already) it will only be the value of your site to your visitors, and how long they spend there that determines your rankings; the tips and tricks of Gurus like me will not help you, if Google knows that people do not stay on your site; and Google already knows everything.
I am living proof that most of you would rather buy sweet lies than hear the truth. But the truth is still the truth. It is all about the value of the resources you provide now.
Stop buying sweet lies. You need video, interaction, and real content to compete online in 2010: and the best way to get these things on a scale that will scale, is user-generated, user-filtered content. The way to get that, is with a social media enabled site.
The Value of Social Media for Market Testing – This is a test…
It does not take a rocket scientist to understand the value, for instance, of Twitter for instant feedback on a product, service, or copy.
But most people do not realize the value of a group like this one for market testing: case in point: we are about to launch a replacement for e-Lance and Rent-a-Coder for the buying and selling of digital media products and services of all kinds including websites, video, and marketing – all free, with nothing standing in the way of the transactions (sort of like a free dating site for business, with the best features of Linked-in, Facebook, Meetup.com.)
What Better place to get some feedback about the initial copy and branding: your opinion please:

2009 Latest trends in Social Media Marketing: Bloblive, Meetup
When I reserved socialmediasystems.com three years ago for $8.75 my ex-partner (a programmer) laughed at me.
My, my what a great deal has changed since then. In an effort to keep up, here are some current trends:
Social Media Marketing: the new checklist for 2009
Think Video in 2009! Google has built huge server farms all over the world and video has taken over as a viral content distribution method. There is no better way to get links and subscriptions, resulting in search placement and traffic, than to blog a combination of text, video, and if possible, profiles with bookmarks and favorites.
The Social Media Marketing plan for 2009 must include:
- Syndicated RSS feeds
- Video and other graphic content
- Profiles on major highly traveled sites (My Space, Digg, Facebook etc.)
- Opt-in subscriptions, groups, feeds, email – mybloglog.com is a good place to start building an affinity group
- User-generated, user filtered content – the amount of content needed to rank now is more than you will consistently generate on your own – and you must have an automated way for the content producers, contributors to police themselves with user-ratings
- Social Bookmarking (you must stumbleupon.com your content, bookmark with delicious, netscape.com, etc.)
- You must ping the world and tell them when there is new content to keep the robots crawling your site more and more regularly
- All these things must be optimized properly
