Interesting stuff today!

I was a busy bee today, lot's of interesting stuff came out. Where to start....

First, I was perusing a forum and for once was in the ptc section. I saw a site that looked different. I signed up for free and the next thing I knew, I was buying keywords and linking my sites to existing keywords. DOH! What a sucker I am. But...read on. The site is called Kooday. Their goal is to build a search engine. Here is a blurp from the site:

Our ultimate goal is to become a competitive Search engine and we are taking a different and refreshing approach. Other Search engines use a bidding system and pay-per-click fees to link websites to keywords. (like Google Adwords) This is how they make most of their money and have gotten very rich. Kooday is not going to compete with these types of rules. Kooday is making it completely affordable for anyone to link their website to any search word.
Anyone can link their website to any keyword by purchasing the KeyWord or if the KeyWord is too expensive they can simply pay a very small fee to the owner of the KeyWord. Kooday allows any person to own Keywords. This means that you make the money when someone wants to link their website to KeyWords. We are unaware of any other Search Engine that allows its members to own, control and profit from KeyWords. (Ownership of KeyWords pays!)

Now, I really did not expect much, but the keywords I bought were around ten cents, so I figured I was not losing much. Next thing I knew, I had sold three of them!! I also spent a few cents linking some of my sites to some existing keywords. Very cheap. I figure it is a very small investment and just might end up being a pretty good thing.

The second thing I did was join InstantBlogSubscribers. I'm still figuring out how it works, but so far it seems pretty cool. You can make a blog and they promise that you will have at least 200 readers; more if you upgrade. I figure to join for free and give it a shot. It certainly seems to be popular. I've probably received 20 email ads for it since signing up. No harm in giving it a try!


Ok, well I think I will go see if there are any other interesting keywords to buy. (:


Take care,
