Get Web Site Traffic Quickly

Posted by kristinewirth on September 16

I created this video in 2008 and since then, thousands upon thousands of people have taken advantage of the viral ability of Traffic Geyser.

Since this date, they have added TONS of new features to help get you up and running quickly.

I highly suggest using this program if you are looking to start or want to increase the potential of your videos.

Go to Traffic Geyser

Pick up a great pocket camera to create those videos at Amazon!


New Amazon Widget

Posted by kristinewirth on August 7

Amazon has just released their “Page Recommender Widget” which will display links to other pages on your website and also link to Amazon products.

If you’re currently signed up as an Amazon Associate/Affiliate, you can simply plug this widget into your page and be off and running.

Here’s an example of what the widget looks like:

Since it’s new, I’m giving it a test run here on the blog but will then add it to SlingBrain.com to see how it pans out there as well.

To use this widget on your pages, you first have to be an associate/affiliate of Amazon. You can sign up here: http://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/join

Once you’re signed in, click on the “Build Links/Widgets” within the left hand navigation menu. Then look for “The Page Recommender Widget”.

Click “Add to Your Web Page”, choose the size you want to display, click the “Add to my web page” button below the widget, copy the code and then paste it on your web page or blog.

Protect Your Affiliate Links

Posted by kristinewirth on August 3

I’ve just created a *very* quick video on how to protect your affiliate links using PHP.

I created this video because I was pitched a product today that was selling a program that automatically does this for you – for $19.99 or $19.97 … can’t remember really but, it was near $20.

It is so easy to do this yourself that I created a video for you showing you how. I was appalled actually that someone was trying to *sell* you this information.

So here’s how to protect your affiliate commissions from being stolen the *right* way.

P.S. If you can’t quite see the code that is shown in the video, I’ve placed it below for you.

1. Create a web page on your LINUX server that has a .php extension. Doesn’t matter what you name the page, just so long as you can identify it.

2. Within this new page, strip out all excessive code, the html, the body, etc. You don’t need this extra “stuff” in there for what we’re doing.

3. Put the following code on your web page AS IS with the exception of where it says “your affiliate link here”.

sample php redirect code

4. Be sure you place the ENTIRE URL including the http:// portion of your affiliate link here.

5. Save the file.

6. Point people to this page when recommending your affiliate products.
