The closing keynote of Affiliate Summit West Las Vegas was delivered by my good friend and enemy (frienemy?) Jeremy Schoemaker of Shoemoney.com. The keynote would be Shoe’s 50th presentation and his last.
I actually recorded the entire presentation and was going to process it with Shoe’s slides, but had to scrap the idea when I found out that recording of any Affiliate Summit sessions were not allowed (this is why the other ASW session videos were removed). Shoe went and got special permission to make the presentation available. He then had a member of his staff processed the video with the slides. That saved me a lot of work.

Let me start off with a quick story about Chris Brogan. And, no, this is not an ass kisser post, although it might seem that way. 
Chris and I have met at several different events. The first time, though, that we really hung out was at an Izeafest event in Orlando, FL. We ended up going to dinner with several other people, but a small enough group where we all had a chance to talk for awhile. My friend from Vegas, Warren Whitlock, was there, too. It was a great meal.

Filed in: Blogging by RMS on 01-23-12
How would you like to learn how to use simple little WordPress to literally deposit hundreds of dollars a day into your Clickbank account?
Did that sound…. spammy?
Probably.
But, give me a minute. Because, what I have to tell you is indeed the real deal.
See, there are two ways to go with affiliate marketing as a blogger:
#1 – Build an authority blog and go big.
(This is the way I do it, and what I usually teach.)
or…
#2 – Build an ARMY of smaller blogs targeting tight little niches.

Filed in: Blogging by RMS on 01-20-12It is one thing for me to blog and share my own stuff here on DavidRisley.com. It is another to share the love and point out some great stuff I’ve come across in the last week – on OTHER people’s sites.
And, so… I am starting what will probably end up being a new weekly feature (probably on Fridays). I’ll share out some stuff I’ve come across during the week.

I met many John Chow dot Com readers while at the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show and Affiliate Summit. It’s always fun to see what kind of impact one can make on people’s lives. One of the things I never get tired of is hearing the success stories from readers of my blog. Normally, it’s a conversation shared between me and the reader. However, I decided to film a few of them this time.

Today (Jan 18th) is a large-scale protest day to SOPA/PIPA. No doubt, you’ve heard all about it.
Many large websites are going black today in protest of the bill, including Wikipedia, WordPress and Google (in the form of a censored logo).
If I had more time available, I might have set things up to black out DavidRisley.com and PCMech.com. But, I don’t really have the time to set it up in the right way.
I am, though, in full support of the protest.

Then, Google+. A new “facebook killer”. People flocked to it. The social media gurus and marketers all went into hyperdrive to…. yeah, you guessed it.
