Unless you’ve decided to hide in a cave for the last ten years, there’s a good chance you know about this whole Internet poker phenomenon. It’s not like poker is a new game, per se, but it has rapidly grown in popularity thanks to televised events like the World Poker Tour.

How can you cash in (no pun intended) on this growing industry? Well, as you’ll learn from this review, Full Tilt Poker actually has one of the most lucrative affiliate programs on the web today.

I had to take my car into North Shore Acura today to get it service and change out the winter tires. Since I was going to be stuck at the dealership for a couple of hours, I figure I would just blog from there. After all, I’ve been blogging from all over the city lately so why not a car dealership? North shore Acura was actually a pretty good place to work from. They had a nice table for me to set up my blogging gears and a coffee machine that made a great Cafe Mocha. However, their wireless Internet was pretty slow.

It was great to see all the positive reaction to yesterday’s Clickbank post. I’ve received a ton positive comments and emails. Thanks to everyone who provided feedback. My article was very long and detailed but it was still just an overview of the business model and only scratched the surface. For many of you, it will be enough to move forward on. However, others will need a little more handholding.

Post image for My Blog Just Crashed.  Lessons Learned From A Recent Experience

Sometimes being the owner, operator, writer and editor of a blog isn’t easy.  Most of us are writing about personal finance because we have a passion for the subject.  Blogging is a great way to share information to help others and provide ideas or opinions around a specific topic.

But sometimes, as a weblog owner, you have to step away from blogging to operate and maintain your blog.  For me, this proved to be a big learning experience recently.  I thought I would share more about it in hopes to help others who might encounter similar challenges in the future.

The following is the business model I use to make thousands of dollars every week with Clickbank. This is going to be long and detail post (over 2,300 words). I encourage you to read though the whole thing because this model works and has been proven over and over by myself and other affiliate marketers. While this model shows how to make money with Clickbank, the model can be applied to any other affiliate network or product (even a blog). I just happen to like Clickbank because information is one of the easiest products to promote and sell on the Internet.

But, for the right person, the Roth IRA is a great way to save some additional cash for retirement! Here’s three important things to remember about investing into Roth IRAs.

You Can Access Your Principal At Any Time

This is a huge advantage! Your contributions are available to you at any point in time regardless of age and regardless of how long the money has been in the account.

Choosing the affiliate marketing model that works for your site or blog can be tough. If you’re a publisher, you will need to weight pros and cons of CPM vs CPC vs CPA models to find which one will work for you and provide the best return for your site ad space. If you’re an advertiser, you’ll need to figure out which model will work for the type of product you’re trying to promote.

Each affiliate marketing business model offers different benefits and drawbacks. To help you decide which model will work best for you, Ace Affiliate has created the following handy “Affiliate Marketing: Choosing The Best Model For You” infographic.

Dot Com Pho returns to Happy Pho for another excitement filled episode. This time we had seven people showed up to dine on a variety of Pho dishes (mostly consumed by Chef Aaron Koo AKA the new Stephen Fung). To makes thing even more happy, Michael Yurechko discovered that Happy Pho had wireless Internet access (not in the restaurant but nearby).

This episode of Dot Com Pho celebrates the heroes of entrepreneurship. Evan Carmichael came up a great idea for trading cards featuring famous entrepreneurs. The entrepreneurs were selected by 33 famous bloggers (of which I am one). The bloggers were asked to name their favorite entrepreneur. That entrepreneur is featured on the front of the card and the blogger who selected him is featured on the back.
