ASW Press Pass!

It seems my plan has finally paid off! After my last trip to ASW and meeting several new bloggers with press passes. (I am looking at you ppc.bz) I told myself if they could do it than I could. 1 Years later and 51 posts later and I was finally able to secure my press pass for affiliate summit west coming up at the beginning of the year. So congrats to me! and thanks to all my readers who have helped me get a pass for this years ASW!

This was the first digital product I have ever made so I was hoping to see some better results. I had a lot of good feedback and lots of people telling me they would love a plugin like this. But even at $5.00 ($5 Off Coupon Code: B1541ABA40) I have been unable to generate a single sale. But I really had intended on only using it myself for my own sites so my plan was basically to break even and then maybe sell a few more. Perhaps I still will some day, but as with any online venture there has been a lot that I learned from this and a lot I did not expect. For one I had no idea that so many bloggers actually signed up for askimet for all of their blogs! I mean this blog has it. But there was no way I was going to register every time I made a blog.

Ebay

I was not planing on doing any eBay posts since I had been hiding out with pepperjam for awhile now avoiding EPN and its crazyness. Well this month I decided to check out their new cost per click thing they just launched. My revenue with pepperjam had already fallen horribly low so I didn’t think I had much to lose. Well after a months of traffic I can say I was wrong. After a full month of traffic eBay now reports I have made a whopping $75.00 with them for September! I am so going to retire now. But since this is only my first month with EPN I have not given up on this system yet. Perhaps it is just to soon for me to really see results since they have no account history with me. I have also confirmed that pepperjam will soon be also switching over to this quality click pricing so there is really no way around it. They only thing left to do is step up my eBay game and find new niches to dig into to make up for the loss of income with this switch over.

Family

This Friday I received a call from my father who was at the hospital. It seems on Thursday he checked him self into the emergency room for shortness of breath and chest pains. many of you can now see where this is going. It seems he was on the verge of a major heart attack but was lucky/smart enough to seek help and was able to dodge it. He has been in the hospital for two days now as they test and monitor him to make sure nothing more is going to happen. Tomorrow he ‘may’ be checked out to my custody for a Sunday at home. After which we will be driving to Miami for him to have a angioplasty and possibly have a bypass or a stint done on Tuesday depending on how the tests go. its time like this I am so happy that I am an affiliate and that I was able to drop everything to fly down to see him today. I will now be in Key West for the best week and a half taking to the hospital and what not and making sure he rests after the operation. I highly doubt I would be able to do this if I had a real job. It looks as though all will be fine after his operations.
