The other day, I wrote about suspecting that my page impressions are somehow not recorded by the local ads that I have implemented on the blog. Well, the boss told me to place the ads of a different format and also at some other more prominent spots on the blog, which I did.

After a couple of days, I do see a very slight improvement in my revenue. However, I still suspect that there is something wrong with the system. How can it be that I was earning 10 cents per day and it suddenly dropped to one cent per day only when the number of page impressions did not fluctuate all that much?

Of course, this figure is just for illustration purposes to show the steep drop. Is that a 90% drop? I think so and it baffles me. Sure the boss said that not all impressions are equal and I do agree with him but the equation still does not add up!

Actually, I did complain once before and the following day, my revenue went up once again to the old days. I still think there’s a problem over at their end, just that they are not admitting it!

I was surfing the internet when I came cross this site, Online Casino Bluebook, which by the way, is NOT an online casino but a website that reviews online casinos and give the top ten casinos on the internet.

Coincidentally, I was looking for a website which allows me to read comprehensive, professional reviews of the most popular online casinos from a single place without me visiting each and every online casino and looking for the information I require.

I wanted to find out which online casino gives the biggest bonus, highest payouts, has the best computer graphics and great customer service. Online Casino Bluebook, which has a website at onlinecasinobluebook.com, has just revised their reviews and already listed the top ten online casinos for November, 2007.

If you are curious to know which are the top ten online casinos reviewed and rated according to the professionals at Online Casino Bluebook, hop over to the site for an informative read.

A friend got a surprised when he took a peek at my mailbox and saw that almost all the email that I received is a marketing email. Well, I signed up to a handful of Mailing Lists and I have a special email box for that.

I like to be informed of the happenings of ecommerce stores, broker’s lists, internet marketer’s database and what not. That’s because I want to have the news sent to me via email instead of going all over the internet reading. It saves a lot of time.

I read that there’s a company that specializes in selling mailing lists so that companies can reach out to the people who really want the information. Companies who buy such lists see a higher return in incoming links and a better conversion in sales.

I tell you, this is driving me crazy!!!! No matter how many times I set my Gmail to show the older version, each time I log into my account, I get the new version again and again. I don’t want the new version, cannot meh??? I prefer the older version and it is not because I cannot accept change, OK?

Change is perfectly fine, only IF it is better than the older version. So no, it’s not anywhere BETTER so I prefer to stick to the old version.

In fact, I am still using the Old Versions of quite a few computer programmes, just because I like to. New ones could be rather buggy and resource hungry so who needs the extra features which are left unused?

I don’t know why Gmail cannot even “remember” my settings and I would have to do the same thing over and over again. It’s like being forced to use something that I don’t want to use! This is getting stale!

I saw this EXCLUSIVITY option in the dashboard of one of the advertorial companies that I am a member of and I have always been curious as to what that means because there was no further information except for a form and the words, “Apply to be an exclusive member”.

Well, last night, I had the opportunity to talk to the head honcho and I suddenly remembered about this feature and I asked him what does that mean? What benefits does it bring to be an “Exclusive” member?

The boss told me that once we become an exclusive member, we would have to only serve ads from one company and no other. Whoa.. I told him, perhaps a little too late, that if he wants that kind of loyalty then his company has to provide adequate compensation to make up for the loss of income from the other advertorial network.

On the other hand, people who would find that this exclusivity works well for them are most probably people with a lower earning power with the other advertorial network.

Personally, I would not like to limit myself like this because this would mean an option less for me to earn a little extra money. This is similar to the kind of limit that bloggers face if they were told not to blog for the next 24 hours or ten days to allow that post to stay at the top of the blog for a set period of time.

Like I mentioned on those occasions, the compensation would have to be adequate to worth my while. What do you think?

Krillion is a very powerful home appliance search engine that is very useful if you are in the US and planning to buy any household item. The founder of Krillion believes that not everyone would be comfortable shopping online, yet these are net savvy people who would actually do their research on the internet first in terms of price, specification and performance before hopping over to their neighborhood store to make a final physical comparison before making a purchase.

Last week, my sister was looking for a hitachi 55 LCD but she did not know which neighborhood store has it in stock. What she did was to do a search on Krillion for her desired item and not only did she get to know which stores have the item, she was also able to read reviews from owners and compare prices.

I think that this is an application that should ideally be developed to include countries outside of the United States. That would be awesome!
