Online marketing with spiritual integrity
Most of the people who comment on here have done this, but a few haven’t, so I thought I’d remind people: If you want your avatar to show up on wordpress blogs, nine times out of ten what you need is a gravatar account. It connnects your email address (hidden from viewers) with an avatar [...]

I had a panicky email from a fellow squid this weekend who was worried about whether she’d get to stay in the Giant Squid program, after having been accused of problem making on the new squidu forums. It really is unfortunate when people who worry are perceived as rocking the boat. When what they’re doing [...]

Chefkeem at Wizzley shared some great tips for making it online on their forums today. One post he shared was the Noble Samurai videos on web conversion. Web conversion is basically the art of turning traffic into buyers. This post is about how to turn traffic into buyers on affiliate sites. Noble Samurai has published [...]

There is not much we can do about it, unfortunately, but it’s still [...]

WordPress is a great CMS to make a site with quickly and make it look good. However, like in many other CMSs, it’s not easy to get iframes or javascript included in posts and pages. Since many of the most used affiliate sites (amazon for instance) use either i-frames or javascript or both, the ability [...]

Darcy wrote on my latest blogpost that I attributed 50% of my success to Squidoo. I was like: no, I don’t. I attribute about 10% of my success to Squidoo. 90% of my success is me. I’m serious: if it wasn’t Squidoo, it would be something else. Sure, I make about 50% of my online income [...]

A little less than a year ago I wrote a post about the advantages and disadvantages of having several squidoo accounts. This weekend Brenda asked: Katinka, how are you feeling about your second account now? I (we) would love to know…either here or perhaps in a new post. She has a point: a lot has [...]

When you are trying to make a living online, one of the things we hear a lot of are LINKS. Links are hugely important to getting pages to rank in Google and Bing. However, they’re the hardest thing to get right. I see people worrying about links a lot in the forums and get questions [...]
