I’ll start by stating the bleeding obvious. YouTube gets a lot of traffic. I tend to take notice of websites which receive a lot of traffic, simply because I can plonk marketing messages in front of people on behalf of other people. If you’re an advertising DIY’er, YouTube offers quite a few ways for you [...]
With the NBN (National Broadband Network) rolling out we’re all (eventually) going to enjoy much faster internet connection speeds in the not too distant future. Both download and upload speeds will be pretty fast. That’s the theory anyway. With faster internet speeds I think the uptake of ‘cloud’ based services will be exponential. There’s been [...]
More advanced Remarketing strategies! Last year I did a post on remarketing which, for those that missed it, talked about how remarketing works and some advanced strategies you might consider when marketing online. Just to recap the basics, remarketing is a product Google offers which enables you to market to people who have previously visited [...]

It is such an obvious thing for Google to do and looking at it now, I’m wondering what took them so long?

I’ve written quite a bit about coupon codes and affiliate marketing over the years and I quickly wanted to share an experience with the website www.Retailmenot.com.

Great website design has never been more important. If you regularly use Google, you’ve probably already noticed that you can preview web pages before you visit them, just by rolling your mouse over the results (or clicking the small magnifying glass next to a search result). This is Google Quickview in action. Here’s an example [...]

Google’s new results pages; the winners and the losers (you probably already know who you are). Can someone please ask Google to take its A.D.D. medication? They’re going mad with new updates – as someone here said recently; they’ve been busier than bricklayers in Baghdad. As you’re aware, in the space of three weeks we’ve [...]
