    The deadline to take part in Econsultancy’s affiliate census is fast approaching. I blogged about the advertiser and agency one here. So much has changed in such a short time that it is clearly really important to give our opinion on the industry, particularly in a year when challenges will focus many a marketer’s eye on affiliate marketing.

    So – for affiliates who want to take part click here. You have until the 27th January.

Tip of the Week


"A large proportion of publishers I know own dozens if not hundreds of domain names. Later on they regret having purchased so many as they don't have the time to build websites for them. Also they don't attract the amount of type-in traffic they were hoping for. Therefore discipline yourself to only buy domain names that you must have.

Be cautious of hype-ridden new TLD releases. There is currently a lot of hysteria surrounding .co domain names, but they could end up being just as much of a damp squib as .tel, .ws and other TLDs. One thing many people are not aware of is a .co domain is seen by Google by default as a local Colombian domain; great if you want to rank well in Colombia, not so great if you wish to use it for a UK site."
