Call me a copycat. I think the title of my post might be the same or similar to one of Seth Godin’s many books, but I am not trying to steal his limelight and I don’t think he’d be too threatened LOL!

I am copying Jennifer Laycock’s idea though. She is on approximately day 27 of a 30 day plan to make some money by marketing a website without spending any cash. The name of her “project” is Zero Dollars, a Little Talent and 30 Days. I have found it very difficult to navigate between each of the 30 days, so may I recommend doing a Google search for “Zero Dollars, a Little Talent and 30 Days Day 1″, day 2, etc. This is how I managed to find all of the days.

I am going to apply this principle to a new website that I launched called ReviewedBy.ca. This is a hobby website that is in need of some more appropriate design, but that is going to have to wait until I start to get some traffic to the site.

It is really a learning site - an opportunity to play with WordPress in greater detail, AdSense Deluxe plugin for Wordpress and AdSense Gold, a software package and articles database to be used in conjunction with your Adsense account. I hear of so many affiliates making money via AdSense - to date I have only made a couple of dollars on another site that I have, a directory of Affiliate Programs - which, like everything else I start, is unfinished *grin*

So follow me through the adventure of getting ReviewedBy.ca into the search engines and getting some traffic!

Unfortunately I have used up all 5 of my Google Analytics accounts right now so will have to find another means of tracking traffic ;-)

It’s not really SEM marketing news but some of you may be interested in checking these out ;-)

Please welcome some friends and colleagues on the launch of their new sites recently!

• Mario the Montreal Dog Walker! Mario walks and boards dogs on Nun’s Island in Montreal. His wife is expecting another addition to their household this week - but it’s a 2 legged baby instead of a 4 legged baby! I left my dogs with Mario for a week while I was out of town and when I returned my dogs were better behaved than ever LOL
• On the subject of dogs, say hello to Romy and Jacob while you search for a new designer dog coat for your pooch! These coats are far from the average knit sweaters that average dogs wear…These are designer style! Corduroy, paisley, faux fur - you name it!
• I thought I knew all about VOIP but when I received a call from MyFon…I soon realized I knew very little! It’s hard enough keeping up with the SEM market, but now I have to keep up with the VOIP telephone market as well!

I will follow up with the review of ranking software that I promised but today is a busy one!
