I got a couple new landing pages up and am starting on some new marketing today. I went to google to start my research and I typed in "find" and stopped to take a drink.

Google, being the helpful company it is, gave me a few suggestions on what I should "find".  I’m not sure if these are listed in order of importance, but if so then the first four are really just about the same thing aren’t they?

Find Chuck Norris

We’ll find you yet Chuck Norris.

Ever wondered who the top players are in your mafia, but the idea of sifting through page after page of your mafia just takes all the fun out of it? Now you can use this new tool from Bobby Heartrate and download your mafia right to your desktop.

I have had my Mastermind, Wheelman, Button Man and Bodyguard at 11% and my Bagman at 15% since around 20th level, so those were already maxed out. But I was at 12% on my Safecracker, and using the spreadsheet I sorted by heists and found a 13% Safecracker in seconds. Since Zynga is not making it easy to sort this data online, downloading your mafia and sorting the data yourself is the next best thing.

Go learn all of the details about the Download Mafia Tool here.

While you’re in Facebook, add me as a friend and then to your mafia:

If you know a Safecracker higher then 13% please leave me a comment here with their info.

This is hands down one of the most amazing cinematic scenes I’ve ever seen in my life.

Below is the trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic featuring the Sith fighting the Jedi. It’s ridiculously amazing, you have got to see it to believe it.

If this MMORPG is half as good as this trailer is, this game will be incredibly fun to play.

Check it out:

Sublime House Of Blues video

I’ve had it with Cyberpowerpc. I ordered a PC back in September in time for Warhammer Online, but it died just as the game came out and I spent a good two months trying to get it fixed.

I sent the PC back to them, they sent it back in the exact same non-working state. I sent it back a second time, it came back and still didn’t work. I sent it back a 3rd time and it worked this time, even though that was months after I had initially ordered the computer in the first place.

Now we’re in April, and it just died again. I’m done with them and the computer. I’m going to rip anything out of it that still works and either sell it or put them in the new machine. Ugh, screw cyberpower.

On Mafia Live I’m kevinBane and Undead Live I’m kevinBane.com. The game was cool for a few weeks but it’s gotten old fast.

So that being said, I’m quitting the game. If you see me feel free to farm money from me. My Mafia Live guy is around level 86 I think and pulling in like 350 million an hour right now, if I sell all my defense I can get that to like 450 million an hour but I didn’t know if I’d keep earning without some sort of pseudo defense so whatever. I will leave it as it is for a while and then sell everything later.

My Undead Live guy is not pulling in so much but I haven’t sold all my gear yet. I’m in the 50’s so feel free to attack and farm for cash. I’ll sell this guys stuff in a few hours so for now just go to war with me or whatever to keep track.

Have fun in the game everyone!

Had a few landing pages designed

by Kevin on April 20, 2009

I have to admit, I don’t know the first thing about landing page conversions yet just because I have very little data of my own to review at this point. But in the past few weeks I’ve had three pages designed for me, and I think I’m slowly getting the hang of it. My plan is to give it a month or so of see what happens, then start using the data I get during that month to tweak and test and start turning my LP’s into real conversion machines.

My current campaigns are running really well and I’m very happy with them. I’ve been able to use the extra income to test more products, which gives me more data, which makes it easier to find a winner next time. It’s definitely a ramping up process and it feels good to have it all moving along so smoothly.

I have big plans for this blog and for creating some of my own products in the coming months. I must say, the job experiences I’ve had have really helped me in the affiliate marketing business.

Being CMMI certified level 2 and trained for level 3 has helped me design a solid foundation of processes and procedures to follow from the start, and I routinely test those processes and refine them constantly. It’s second nature since it was mandatory for my job for years.

My QA experience comes in handy in all aspects of this business all of the time. The affiliate marketing business is truly founded around testing, and being a born tester it’s like this business was made for someone like me. And all of my years as quality assurance lead and business analyst really makes research and fact finding an extremely easy process for me. I’m really fortunate to have worked in IT in the jobs I’ve had and I feel like I’ve been building a business in the affiliate marketing world for years now instead of just a few months like it’s really been.

I’m doing research on my first product I plan on creating, which will be a Clickbank informational product, and luckily for me the existing products are not only lame but downright crap when you look at them. And they’re selling.. quite well actually. I have already started working on the outline of the concept and think I should be able to complete it within a month or two tops.

Your place in our galaxy.

by Kevin on April 1, 2009

I can’t seem to shake this need to understand the universe lately, so I went looking for more answers. I found this amazing view of the Milky Way Galaxy and added a few notes of my own:

milky way galaxy

This artists rendition was released by NASA and JPL-Caltech on June 6th, 2008. The data that was gathered from the Spitzer Space Telescope (SST) was used to create this amazing view of our galaxy.

“Like early explorers mapping the continents of our globe, astronomers are busy charting the spiral structure of our galaxy, the Milky Way. Using infrared images from NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope, scientists have discovered that the Milky Way’s elegant spiral structure is dominated by just two arms wrapping off the ends of a central bar of stars. Previously, our galaxy was thought to possess four major arms…

Our sun lies near a small, partial arm called the Orion Arm, or Orion Spur, located between the Sagittarius and Perseus arms. ”

The Earth is moving HOW FAST?

When you start selling through Clickbank they keep what is called an "Allowance".  What this means is Clickbank keeps around 10% of your earnings to cover your returns.  My experience with Clickbank has been anywhere from a 7% return to 10% return rate so far.

This "allowance" gets "released" after around 84 days or so.  This is really great because I have a lot of money tied up in allowance and I just started getting some of that back.  The allowance I have tied up at a glance is just shy of $1,000.00,

It’s hard to believe that I’m still such a noob at PPC in general.  After starting the business seriously this past December I have made quite a bit of money.  In just three months I’ve gone from complete noob to advanced marketer.  If I’ve accomplished this much in just three and a half months I can’t wait to see where I’m at in another three months.  It’s been hard work, and there is a LOT of hard work ahead, but damn the end result is SOOOO worth it.

As 311 says "I’d surely like to rest but the energy gets the best of me."
