I sent out Grouper Evolution version 1.6.3 yesterday. I’d been working on a much more ambitious upgrade, but decided that it was important to get a few of the improvements out now.
The most visible and important change is an overhaul of the Shopping.com affiliate plugin. The original plugin was based on data sent to me […]

John Reese announced a new service today that concerned me a little…because it’s very similar to a project I’ve been working on for a few months. It looks like the future of link exchanges is the exchange of links and content. Here’s an overview of what I’ve been working on:
Members of my service (the name […]

Yesterday, we packed up our van and left Nebraska for Bear Lake (on the Utah-Idaho border) for a family reunion. Just before reaching Cheyenne Wyoming, we heard a “thunk” and saw a huge cloud of smoke in our rear view mirror.  We took it out of gear and pulled off the road, and as we […]

I’m looking for one individual to work part time from home answering questions in my forum, and eventually in my help desk system. Set your own hours. Pay is negotiable. Your first assignment will be in the CaRP forum, but you don’t need to know CaRP yet, as long as you have the ability to […]

I released a new product today named “Fast JV” that makes it incredibly easy for any ClickBank affiliate to create promotional bundles of ClickBank products and attach bonus products to them without having to go through all the schmoozing that’s usually necessary to set up a joint venture.
I was hoping to sell it through ClickBank, […]

Today, along with a minor CaRP update, I sent out a few hints at what’s coming in a major CaRP update I hope to release next month. Here are some bullet points from today’s email:

I’m hoping to implement a new configuration method that doesn’t require all of the CarpConf calls. A change this big will […]

I’ve just set up a 7 day email mini-course, 7 ways to turn RSS into R$$. When you register, you also get a free download of CaRP Free, an RSS to HTML converter for your website, and if you stay on the mailing list, updated versions will be sent to you as they’re released.
This is […]

In response to user requests, I just released Moray, a script which uses CaRP and Grouper to filter and aggregate RSS feeds, and republish them in RSS 2.0 format. It’s a free download, and can be used with the free version of CaRP, but requires the commercial version of Grouper ($17.97 for a single user). […]

There’s something of an online lovefest underway for Chris Pirillo’s newly launched metasearch site, gada.be (pronounced “gotta be”, I believe). Since I can’t find anyone else mentioning this, I’ll blow my own horn. Unless things have changed since late last month, CaRP is the RSS processing engine under the hood. It’s one of the most […]

I’ve posted an Affiliate marketing example showing a way to create a search page for multiple affiliates programs. A few noteworthy notes:
1) The affiliate search results are displayed on your website so that if your visitor doesn’t find anything interesting in their searches, they’re still on your site.
2) Default search terms relevant to my target […]
