If you’ve been around for a while, you’ve read my rant about price fixing for wireless data rates in Canada.

As I discussed earlier, at the end of August, Faith, her brother and I headed down to PAX. I was thinking about the swag the other day, and an observation about marketing dawned on me. Several companies that had booths there were giving out T-shirts, but they only had one size: XL.

It’s Supposed To Be Hard.

2007 at 6:54pm | by Dave

One of the most annoying things about this industry is how get-rich-quick it’s become. I talked about this briefly in the Brad Callen post, and everywhere you look these days some ‘guru’ or expert is selling some e-book or software with promises of untold riches from the Internet finding their way into your pocket […]

In our partnership, I usually come up with the ideas. Not to say Jay hasn’t come up with some amazing ideas himself, but most of the time I dream up some crazy idea and Jay shoots it down mercilessly. It works well! Why? Because I tend to focus on the big picture and not the […]

Recently, Jay posted a review about one of our most utilized tools, SEO Elite, and how one of the features the program has lets you scan for sites with your keywords in their Title Tags, Anchor Tags and in the Text. I’m going get a bit more in depth as to why this information is […]
