Hey there! I am very stoked to be able to introduce you to my new WordPress plug-in called the PPC Keyword Tracker (beta), which you can get, right now!

In a nutshell, the PPC Keyword Tracker plug-in for WordPress gives affiliate marketers the ability to track the keywords they are paying for on Google, Yahoo and Bing, and other paid advertising platforms, in order to drive traffic to an affiliate offer which they are promoting via WordPress-based blogs, websites and landing pages.

Until this WordPress plug-in became available, there really was no easy way for the Average Joe/Jane to automatically track PPC keyword-driven traffic to a WordPress-based landing page.

Currently, the PPC Keyword Tracker WordPress plug-in can store, cloak and anonymize keywords associated with the following types of tracking IDs:

  • affiliate subIDs (sid)
  • tracking IDs (tid)
  • campaign IDs (cid)
  • custom tracking variables
  • or create your own…

BONUS: I believe that this plug-ins ability to dynamically cloak and anonymize keywords is one of it’s strongest features. The Merchants you are promoting won’t get to take advantage of your hard work!

Example of a Cloaked & Anonymized Keyword:

From: http://www.yourdomainname.com/?tid=teeth-whitening
To: http://www.yourdomainname.com/?tid=5

You can see that the keyword “teeth whitening” has been cloaked with the anonymized variable “5.” This number 5 is what gets dynamically passed through your affiliate URL to the merchant’s affiliate tracking software. (:

Bob’s Big Boy Hamburger Restaurant – Back in San Diego

Bob's Big Boy Hamburger Restaurant - El Cajon, CAI am so stoked to announce that I ate at a Bob’s Big Boy restaurant in San Diego today (El Cajon to be exact). I am not stoked because the food was out of this world. NO! It was just simply nostalgic.

I think the last time I ate at a Bob’s Big Boy was at least 15 – 20 years ago and I think it was somewhere in Mira Mesa. You know what, it doesn’t matter where. What matters is that it brought back a little feeling of childhood, albeit very short lived. Nonetheless, the feeling was AWESOME and I loved every second of it.

Cool…

Thanks Jonathan Kraft – Awesome Christmas Gift

in Thank You

I got home last night from Jiu-Jitsu and saw that I had received a gift package from one of my favorite affiliate marketers, Jonathan Kraft. He is currently traveling the world with his wife Carrie while making money as an affiliate marketer; a truly portable lifestyle. How cool is that!

The gift package came from a truly awesome website called Wine Country Gift Baskets, which I’ve used before. Inside it was a Ghirardelli Tower–a tower of boxes each containing an awesome chocolaty treat (i.e. cookies, coffee, chocolate drops, hot chocolate, and such).

Thanks for such a cool Christmas gift. My wife and I will enjoy every bit of this gift for several weeks to come (so long as our willpower remains).

Merry Christmas!!!
