In his example, Wil explained how a client of his had numerous authority links (fashion magazine websites) but still was not getting the same rankings as the competition. So Wil and the folks at [...]

Tweet One of the greatest innovations to Affiliate Summit since early registration (Saturday before the show) is probably the interactive scheduler, which allows you to select from the sessions and create your schedule for the show.

Tweet I attended Jim Kukral‘s session at Affiliate Summit entitled, “How to get Motivated for Success” only to hear Jim speak. He has a natural stage presence, and I was going simply to listen to a great public speaker. I didn’t expect to get anything out of the session, but Jim definitely proved me wrong. [...]

Tweet Tuesday was the final day of Affiliate Summit West in Las Vegas – sad to see things wrap up, but 3 days is all I can take being away from my family and working (attending sessions, networking opportunities, walking the exhibit hall floor) nearly 24/7. I started the day down in the Blogger’s Lounge, [...]

Tweet Affiliate Summit continued on Monday, starting with breakfast then Dr. Robert Cialdini’s keynote. After the keynote, I ran through the Exhibit Hall, but wasn’t too impressed this time around. “It’s not you, it’s me.” Previously, I would have talked to everyone, took every pen, stress ball and whatever SWAG they were giving away and [...]
