6 Reasons You Should Invest in Internet Marketing During the Recession

Putting aside whether we're actually in a recession, or not, I think it's safe to say that the "R" word is on everyone's mind.

Given that I'm in sales, and I haven't had anyone tell me that "I'm not buying because I can't get a bank to give me a new credit card."

There are three types of compensation methods that are associated with affiliated marketing. The firs...

How To Podcast Using Wordpress

Podcasting is the next step up from blogging. While blogging is done by armies of pajama-clad ordinary people, podcasting is done by many of these same people, though less often in pajamas, in front of a digital or audio recorder. Short pieces are recorded, then distributed via RSS 2.0 or Atom to their website, typically a blog site. Listeners and viewers can then download podcasts using podcast clients. A good podcast client (for example, Juice, CastPodder, or iTunes) will allow you to subscribe to the RSS/Atom feed of your favorite podcasters and automatically download the content to a computer or to a portable audio player when new items are available.
