ASW and a nice scam!

Written by The Kid on February 25, 2008

Here i am at Affiliate Summit West and it looks to be a solid conference, day 1 is over and i have already picked up a ton of info. Jason Calacanis decided it would be a good idea to make fun of Shoemoney and Zac Johnson by saying that showing off your earning checks are lame. Good way to start the keynote speech.

After that we went to the Video Innovation in Affiliate Marketing session it was good but pretty standard, so we jumped over to the email marketing session which was a good session, tons of tools to use if you are an email marketer.

After lunch I went to the How to Futureproof Your SEO Efforts by Wil Reynolds that guys presentation was sick, that guy is a very very smart kid. His company is SEER Interactive i will be posting the presentation here in a few days, if you ever need SEO done i think this is your guy.

I went back to the hotel room and i saw this nice email message

    I’ve received the same offer from (presumably) the same spammer. And yes, they couldn’t pull the “online since” for my blog either.

    I’ve had exactly the same mesage for every one of my blogs. I’m totally sick of finding 1400 spam messages every morning, especially when they are as thick as this and can’t even manage a properly formatted message.
