Given that Transport for London has admitted that this charge will only reduce emissions by 0.05 per cent (and thats best case) then [...]

How to lose out on almost 800 Diggs and handling people copying my content again
Last Friday I wrote an article about white cars. I thought it was pretty good and was going to submit it to Digg as I thought it was the type of stuff that their readers enjoy. However I got caught up with other work so never got round to it. Then on Saturday afternoon I [...]

Kieron, why don’t your remove your old discount codes?
Every week I get emails from merchants/networks etc. thanking me for promoting their discount codes on my site UKOffer.com.

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.
