PlugIM.com - For all things Internet Marketing related

[Dravis]

All right y'all... I've been hesitant to post my site here until I felt it was ready for a look... Well, I feel it's finally ready for a look.

http://www.PlugIM.com

Zeegal and I (http://www.zeegal.com) worked on this for pretty close to 3 months tweaking, implementing new features, and fixing various bugs. Zeegal is great to work with by the way, if you're looking to hire someone for a template. I'm guessing that he's got quite a back log right now though since I occupied him for such a long time... Sorry about that.

Anyway, the site, PlugIM, stands for Plug Internet Marketing and obviously is geared toward the IM niche. Anything to do with making money online and increasing traffic: SEO, Google Awords and Adsense, linking, blogging, creating info products, and helpful software such as auto link submitters etc.

Some of the new features we added are the integrated newsletter, which is tied into the Aweber newsletter service and also a neat PayPal tip system. When you create an account, you can optionally add your PayPal email address. Then whenever you write your own editorial that doesn't link out to another site (i.e. your own original article) a PayPal donation link appears under the article on the story page. So if other PlugIM users enjoyed or learned something valuable from your article, they can click and send you a tip. I also plan on implementing Google Adsense revenue sharing fairly soon but right now I'm still cleaning up a few odds and ends.

Let me know what you think... There isn't much content right now because I'm just starting to promote it, but I'd obviously love to have any of you sign up and post away. Let me know if you notice any fixes on there that you'd like to know how to implement and I'll be happy to share.

Oh btw, it's running on Pligg 7.2 beta (heavily hacked up, Lord help me if I ever need to upgrade) and the template was generated using one of the skidoo templates... Not sure which one. And the Blog is running on WordPress.

Nice design! I wish I had a cool design like this. I'm working on one though.

It's a beautiful site ...

Very professional looking .... you should do very well.


You should do a spell-check though ... "explanation" "business"

Thanks Randy... That's my inner engineer coming out to haunt me. DreamWeaver needs a spell checker.

Great design. I love seeing Pligg sites with well done custom templates.

It seems as though all the pligg sites that have decent templates are the ones made by Zeegal.

www.dealspy.com is another one. 3dkiller's new template is being made by Zeegal, too.

I didn't realize that dealspy was done by the same designer, but when I looked at PlugIM I definitely saw some similarities. Something about the sidebar is what gave it away the most.

I've finished implementing Adsense revenue sharing for PlugIM. I know some Pligg sites have done this all ready but here's how it works at PlugIM. In your edit profile section, there are fields for Adsense ID and Adsense Channel (channel is optional so you can track how many impressions your ads are getting). From that point on, any time one of your stories is viewed, there's a 50% chance of your Adsense ads being displayed.

I've also made it so as long as you're logged in, if you view your own story (to check comments or whatnot) your ads will never be displayed to prevent you from accidentally clicking on your own ads.

If anyone has any questions how I implemented any of this let me know, I'll be glad to help you out.

What is "internet marketing"? I've gotten that question a lot recently since PlugIM has been steadily increasing in visitors (Alexa rank 75,801). Ask a hundred internet marketers this question and you'll get a hundred different answers but the simplest answer I've heard is: "Internet marketing is the art of making money online."

If you're reading this, presumably you have a Pligg site. If you have a Pligg site, presumably you’d like to make a little income from it eventually. Why not? We all put a lot of work into these sites. It'd be nice if we could earn a small return on that. So in a sense, you're all internet marketers and as such, PlugIM has something to offer you. As an internet marketing Pligg site, PlugIM focuses on everything related to making money online and that includes traffic generation. And who couldn't use some extra website traffic?

So come visit PlugIM and pick up a few pointers on what you can do to promote and drive traffic to your own Pligg site. Better yet, if you have your own tips for getting traffic to your site, or how to make money online, create an account and share your knowledge. Now's the time to do it, because for a limited time, we're offering new members 100% Adsense revenue sharing for life! What’s that mean? It means the Google ads displayed on every story or article you ever post to PlugIM will use your Google Adsense publisher ID number 100% of the time. If a PlugIM visitor reads your story and clicks an ad on that page, you earn money! Directly into your Adsense account!

Very important note: This offer is only for those of you reading this post! It isn’t posted anywhere on PlugIM. When you create your account, it’ll default to 50% Adsense revenue sharing. To get it set to 100% you must email me your PlugIM username using this link: pliggoffer@plugim.com

Also note: Of course you need to have a Google Adsense account to make use of this feature. If you don't have an Adsense account, you can sign up here.
