Shoemoney sells affiliate site AuctionAds, but for how much?
I blogged about AuctionAds a while ago and now Jeremy “Shoemoney” Schoemaker has sold his company to Media Whiz, the parent company of Text Link Ads.

Welcome to my blog. My name is Kieron Donoghue and I run UK Offer Media Ltd. I thought it would be fun to post a daily (well hopefully daily) blog, writing about my experiences in Internet Marketing and more specifically Affiliate Marketing. I'll include some personal stuff too, probably about my other passions, music and cars. Please feel free to post your comments and thoughts too.
