Paul – wordpress is pretty easy to get going. Just download from wordpress.org or if you want them to host it then take a look at wordpress.com but you won’t get the same control.

Sitting here once again paralysed by the gurus. Great podcast. Off topic, but how can I set up my own wordpress blog like this – I really ought to show my face in the affiliate world, having been making a living from it since 2001.

Sorry Fraser my fault really for being a bit cryptic, I must have had my grumpy head on.

What I mean really is it was valuable to hear you folks discuss the nuts and bolts of grimey commerce. Don’t be shy to ask those tricky questions!

& thanks again for doing the podcasts, it’s appreciated.

The P word = Profit – particularly in the true sense of the word ie having enough left over after costs to earn a sensible living.

Glad this podcast seemed to go down well. It was great to speak to Doug.

Matt – what’s the ‘P word’? I’ll bear in mind that I shouldn’t talk as if people know the same people I know! Cheers for the tip.

100% agree with fly.co.uk being a bargain, if i had seen that and had the money would have snapped that up

Excellent podcast, the best I have heard Fraser.

No flannel or cliquey talk* – real discussion on the nuts and bolts of the business. Hey you even use the ‘P word’.

Appreciate it, thank you both.

* PS When you drop various first names into conversations many people will have no idea who you are talking about, and it does make the whole thing sound a little like a small club. (Perhaps it is!)

As usual Doug is highly entertaining, informative and downright scary! A refreshing unique view of the affiliate world, but that’s the view from the top I’m guessing!

Thanks to you both! Really enjoyed listening to that:)

Found the discussions on generic domain names and ppc very interesting.

Really interesting podcast. I like the start where we get a comment list of the different places Doug acted as a bum in.

Definitely agree with the comments about the domain names, difficult to get people to catch on to short, sharp domain name than a “personalized” domain name. I also completely agree with the “giving up is easy” part.
These days (affiliates in particular) give up straight away just because money doesn’t land in their laps, the hard working affiliates get all the rewards, simple as that.
