Apple iPhone launches in 10 days. Whats the deal for affiliates?
Whether you love it, or whether you think its an overpriced iPod, the fact is that the Apple iPhone will be MASSIVE this Christmas.
In the USA it sold 270,000 in its first 2 days of launch. And up until September 29th 2007 they have sold 1,119,000 in total so far. So, it would be foolish to [...]

Highlet teaser campaign reveal. I’m disappointed
Well it has now been “revealed” that the Highlet viral campaign I blogged about it is actually to promote Capgemini.
Capgemini are a company that specialise in….erm…..well I have no idea actually. I looked at the landing page (below) but the boring blue corporate looking screen instantly made my eyes glaze over and sleep soon followed. Where [...]

Theo Paphitis is robbed of £200k for 30% of affiliate site Gaming Alerts in Dragons Den TV show
Theo, if you are reading this, I can save you £100k and get you 100% of a company, not just 30%.
Maybe its me but I always see Dragons Den as a kind of “last chance saloon”. In other words if you business hasn’t grown organically or been able to attract investment from other sources then give Dragons [...]

Oh Dear. Lee has just blogged about brand name ppc bidding and seems to be of the opinion that the approval process is corrupt. Sadly, he lowers the tone of his argument by ending with this paragraph:

Some of my blog emails
Thought I’d share some of the weird and wonderful emails I receive on a daily basis. These are 100% genuine, and I have only deleted web and email addresses to save some embarrassment:
Dear Sirs,
Could you please inform me how can I become a merchant with your affiliate network as I run my web site xxxxxx and [...]
