The domain name Bankrupt.co.uk is for sale

George Marshall — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 12:22:14 +0000

An opportunity might be on the horizon and I’m making sure I have funds in place should it come to fruition. I will probably need around £45,000 so to help me reach my target I’m considering selling bankrupt.co.uk (domain name only). If you are in the bankruptcy or bankruptcy alternatives business, you won’t need me to [...]

Playing The Affiliate Marketing Numbers Game

George Marshall — Sat, 20 Jun 2009 10:25:38 +0000

Business is a numbers game and that’s particularly true of internet business. With affiliate marketing, it really all comes down to this – the more (quality) clicks you can generate the more money you will make. The problem is when you’re starting out in affiliate marketing, getting a feel for any numbers can be pretty [...]

Raining Domain Names

George Marshall — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 12:41:18 +0000

Thanks to an error at Nominet back in March when domain name renewal emails weren’t sent out, there has been something of a drought of domain names being released in recent weeks. That was until yesterday that is, when the floodgates opened and hundreds of previously registered names that had not been renewed were [...]

Did you know that there are only 198 days to Christmas? Still plenty of time to get in any “last minute” shopping I know, but it’s never too early for webmasters to be thinking about the Christmas season and the boost in revenue it can bring. So last night I sat down and [...]

Sorry, But I Don’t Want To Party Like It’s 2006

George Marshall — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 13:15:20 +0000

I’m not sure what’s been going on lately, but twice this month I’ve visited entrepreneur.co.uk to be greeted by two old homepages from previous incarnations of this website. One was dated January 2006! Apologies if you’ve been similarly confused recently. It’s just one of a string of problems I’ve had with hosting this year and [...]

Flogging A Dead Horse Or Building Mountains Of Grain?

George Marshall — Tue, 19 May 2009 19:13:40 +0000

So far this month, I’ve been busily adding content to websites, but with limited success in terms of immediate returns. Some sites I religiously update daily and at the moment the returns would suggest I was flogging a dead horse or three. I keep telling myself that content is king, you’re building for the future, 80% [...]

Is This Why Some Of Your Mobile Phone Sales Are Being Rejected?

George Marshall — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 13:45:01 +0000

In the last two months I’ve made four sales on behalf of Carphone Warehouse and could have been £100 richer for doing so. As it is I haven’t earned a penny because all four sales were rejected. No reason is given for the rejections, but in two of the cases I don’t need one. [...]

Why I’m Investing In A Beans Business In Togo And A Sandwiches Business In Paraguay

George Marshall — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 10:43:49 +0000

I knew Togo was a country in Africa, but to be honest I had to look it up on a map to discover that it’s a thin slip of a country squashed inbetween Ghana, Bukina Faso and Benin. My new found interest in the country stems from the fact that I’ve just invested in a [...]

Fancy Dress Clothes

George Marshall — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 11:01:43 +0000

One of my newest websites, I turned down an offer of £1,750 from a fancy dress company for the domain name to develop the site myself. It features an affiliate shop powered by Datafeed Studio. For every costume sold, I earn a commission. Built using basic html and with a shop powered by Datafeed [...]
