Ebay has a little feature called “want it now”.  It’s a place where people who want something can list what they want.  You can also contact them. Now I’m not suggesting that you sell folks things from there – and spamming is wrong. Cough Cough.  Ebay doesn’t like it, but you could probably find a [...]

Well it’s a new game out there.  Bing is competing with Yahoo for 2nd place in the Search Engine wars – and Microsoft is planning to pour in a crap load of money over the next 5 years (I just read that they planned on putting 5 to 10 percent of their annual operating costs [...]

I’m just curious where you guys/gals register your domains.  I usually use namecheap because I like their interface better than any others I’ve tried.  If you have more than 50 (hehe I wish that’s all I had) with them they will give you a special code to get a discount on renewals.  That’s always nice [...]

I’ve been getting all sorts of questions because I’ve mentioned power up wordpress a few times over the last couple weeks.  I’ll be honest and admit that it was just for indexing purposes (really search for power up wordpress and I’m not ranking – it was other people talking about power and wordpress before).

I get asked constantly “will this get me banned”?  Well I’ve put up about 10 million pages over the course of my “web life” and I do pay attention to things like that.  In my experience and anyone else that has written about it – you get banned for three things. Why do you get [...]

If you are looking for a charity to donate a few bucks to – my wife will be walking in the Relay for Life this weekend.  Let me know you donated something in the comments here and I’ll hook you up with something nice like a big screen t.v. or your own private island in [...]

Many of our readers are happy Niche Site Special 2 members. In fact I started Black Hat Digest for them.  Basically a guide on how to build up your networks based on what’s inside NSS 2. Obviously I have added a lot more content here since then – I’ve found I enjoy it.  But if [...]

Heya all, A week or so ago I put up 10 wordpress themes with very loose rights and they were all snapped up in just a couple hours. I got a number of e-mails asking me for another set – for a suprising reason.  They wanted them for auto blogs (great idea).  They didn’t want [...]

Black Hat Experiments is a new section on the blog where I talk about ideas I (or someone else) had that seem like a good idea.  I haven’t scaled them, tested them, or really done anything – I just think it’s a good idea.  Here is the link to the category section where you can [...]
