A $199 automation tool for nothing?
A while ago, I purchased Iopus Software's iMacro software - a tool for automating Internet Explorer operations. It cost me $199. Last week I came across a Firefox plugin my Iopus. It seems to do the same thing (but I've only had a cursory glance at the plugin). And it costs $199 less. Damn.

Automate Your Roll-out Plan, Part 2
And so it continues (read this post first if you're not sure what 'it' is). The latest launches: Undercover Profits (fantastic idea, fantastically overpriced). If all goes well, I'll be able to over a comparable product for under $50, one time payment, in just over a month... stay tuned if you're interested. Jason Potash's Content Composer .... didn't even read the sales page, so I'm not sure what it is. Some sort of content writing aid. And I think I missed a couple. Again, March is looking pretty busy for big launches. Make sure you're not competing tith these launches next year.

Website might go down
I'm caught in the Registerfly debacle, and this is one of the domains that's affected. Hopefully, I'll get it transferred to another registrar now that ICANN have finally taken off the kid gloves. Oh, and feel free to link to Registerflies.com using Registerfly as the keyword link, and help to get Registerflies into first place in Google for keyword 'registerfly' ...

Automate Your Roll-Out Plan
Well, not so much "automate" it, as "think about it". If you've been around online for more than 6-9 months, you'll remember a MASSIVE rush of internet marketing related products launched back in September or thereabouts. I remember several people commenting on there being a good reason for this, but all I remember is getting hammered by mail after mail promoting the same 6-10 products, most of which were WELL out of my zone of interest and the size of my wallet. And the thing I took from this was my golden rule: Never launch in September... Well, it's possible there's a new rule: Never launch in March... This week so far: The Rich Jerk X-Ray software. James Jones' audio-video package. Adsense Wealth Empire. ...
