Well after month or so being back from Affiliate Summit I am finally finished doing all the work with my new contacts. It is always a little hectic when I get back from Las Vegas so I end up staying there for a few days to digest it all in.
After Summit we drove to Los Angeles to see my favorite band The Dollyrots. They rocked as usual and I am so glad we added that part to the trip. (Hi Chris I know you are reading this)
So whats new is Loxly and I have our own little podcast going on. It is over on Geekcast.fm where we explain the ABC’s of affiliate marketing and making a quality website and how to drive traffic to it. There is also two podcast on using Twitter. I am finding it a lot of fun to talk about making a website, much better then typing it into a website. I can explain stuff in 15 minutes that would take me an hour to type and half that time I would lose focus on what I was trying to say in the first place.
The NASCAR site I built on the forum is doing better then expected. The traffic is just off the charts due to using Twitter I can’t rave enough about finding like minded people in the “Niche”. On some occasions people re-tweet whats happening on the site. Fans recommending fans to the site, got to love that. The forum has been a little hard to get going but like I said this isn’t a race its a long term deal. It is a passion of mine that just happens to make money.
I am now starting a new site and it is really just in the research stage. I developed a love for a certain medical type product which a lot of other people could use to make their lives easier. There is really no competition for it and I already found an affiliate program that converts well. Did my keyword research and I am able to get a great domain for it. I really don’t see why this site project doesn’t move forward rather quickly. You can bet though that the site will be pushed using Twitter, and probably Orkut too. I am not a big fan of Facebook and choose to use Orkut instead as I see it bringing my sites more international traffic.
Now go listen to the podcast on Geekcast.fm.

Hi, I actually listened to the podcast first, enjoyed it very much, and then came here to see your site. I really appreciated the info about the privacy page, disclosures, etc. Thanks for the info and the referral to JenSense.com . It looks like a great site as well. I spend a lot of time driving as I shuttle grandkids around, so I really appreciate podcasts, like yours, that educate in an interesting way. Thank you!
Thanks for the nice comments. If there is any subject you would like to hear about just let me know and I will do my best.
I finally got a chance to listen to your latest podcast (at 1 in the morning
), and so enjoyed it. Thank you for the great tips. And what a treat to hear my site mentioned. Thank you for that as well! I will definitely be heading to ABestWeb and checking out the book/site by James Martell (Was it Online Success for Non-techies?). I also enjoyed hearing how each of you got your start. Very interesting! 
Kaye thanks for the nice comments. Isn’t it great that you can listen to podcast at 1am lol I find myself doing that all the time.
The book that is mentioned is NOT James book Online Success for Non Techies. Although it is a great book for newbies and non tech people, you do not need that book as you are further along then that.
The book was actually James Martells Ebook which is great but I think you are already past that stage also.
