Are you a networker? I need you.

Dear Facebook: Why do you think I am gay?
Dear Facebook Why do you think I am gay? Is it because I’m vegan? I thought that was more a lesbian thing. Is it because I am a Slayer fan? Is it because I am married? I thought the percentage of men on the “down low” was pretty low. For the most part you do a really good job targeting your advertising to me. You can tell I’m a blogger, so you show me Internet marketing and blogger related ads. You know that I’m into yoga so... [Read More...]
Being more authentic
Last week I met with Scott Stratten to get some advice on my speaking career. One of the things that he advised me to do, was to talk more about my history in the adult business. This led Justin and I to discuss being more authentic with your audience. One of the hardest things to do is be the same person on a video or on stage that you are in real life. The closer those two personalities get, the more authentic you become. Justin struggles with... [Read More...]
Could Facebook end Google’s search monopoly?
The Facebook Like Button may change the way people use search in the future. You should be putting this on your sites today!

You may argue with me but I think change is coming, and it doesn’t cost you a dime to embrace it. What do you think?? SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title:... [Read More...]

After some discussion about Chris’s false starts in business we decided to give him a challenge.

Stumbleupon Ad Buy Test
We started purchasing visits from stumbleupon.com Due to the nature of the traffic being random (within a certain category). The price per visitor is very low, so is the quality. At five cents per visitor, this is an attractive number for anyone trying to feed traffic to their existing content such as an article or blog post. My most success has come from feeding this traffic to my own blog. For $50 I can send 1000 visitors to my blog. Some of those... [Read More...]
