There may be more rules and guidelines for other forums and threads in addition to these and these rules apply to all of the Pheeds Phorum.

You should assume the intent/spirit of the rules and not the exact letter of the rules.

One account per person. Real names perferred even if it's just your first name and initial.

Be nice. This isn't a "safe place". Instead, Pheeds is a place where marketers understand "trigger words" and use discipline to avoid those that intend to anger, insult or shame others. It isn't about "them", it's about you and me.

If you can't select better words, this probably isn't the place for you.

You own the rights to your posts. However, by posting here you grant Pheeds.com the post them even if you get banned.

Cow Chips are Pheeds.com "currency" that can be earned through helpful engagement in the Phroum and spent to buy access to additional Pheeds features. Do not try to earn Cow Chips or increase post counts with meainingless short posts or comments or inflate character counts with "fluff" words.

Don't use excessive caps or styling like fonts, sizes and colors.

Pheeds.com may move or delete any threads, posts or comments.

You must have the rights or permission to use the content of your posts. No "sharing" of files unless you own the files. No copy/pasted content unless you own the content. Sites that allow content to be shared like YouTube videos are fine.

Signatures require minimum participation in the Phorum before they are available. Sigs are limited to 255 characters and no images allowed. Affiliate links are allowed but must clearly be marked with (AFF). It's strongly recommended that you don't post about how to make money while having an affiliate link to a product about how to make money.

These rules may change as needed.

My low carb cheese cake crust:



1/2 cup Capn Crunch

1/2 cup coconut flour - I use about 2/3 cup of coconut flakes and blend/grind them into about 1/2 cup.

2 big tablespoons of butter/margarine



Blend together Capn Crunch and coconut until fine.



Then add the butter and stir until combined and press into a pie pan.



17 carb from 1/2 cup of Capn Crunch

17 carbs from 1/2 cup coconut flour

0 carbs butter



34 total carbs in the entire crust.



100 carbs in a cup of graham cracker crumbs.

'Retargeting jacking" is when you post a redirect link that includes adding a retargeting pixel.

For example, you post a link on FB to an article on Forbes.com. Someone clicks on the link, but instead of being taken directly to the Forbes article, the link sends them to a script that adds a retargeting pixel then forwards the clicker to the Forbes article.

This lets the person on FB that created the link to build a custom audience from their pixels that are interested in topics like the Forbes article.

Unlike typical link jacking, retargeting jacking doesn't steal the authority or opinion of the destination site or put that site in frames. I don't think there's any issue here.

However, is it unethical to add tracking pixels to the people interested in article you posted without them knowing for you to market to in the future?

It can be very difficult for a person with no affiliate sales history to be approved at sites like Warrior Plus and JVZoo. Here's some of the issues you need to overcome.

People without any sales history seldom make any future sales and in the rare cases they make a sale it's usually only one. One sale makes vedors think that sale may have been just to get a "discount".

And worse, affiliates without any history pose a real problem with fraud, making sales then using dirty tricks to get refunds and you're stuck paying.

Once an affiliate gets sales, the things vendors look are:

1. Refunds. Refunds kill the ability of vendors recruiting other affiliates. As a vendor we'll see some applicants with a 3% refund rate and another with a 30% refund rate. Why is the second getting so many refunds? Is he/she lying or a scammer? They affect our reputations.

2. Low conversion rate. If you're sending traffic that doesn't convert you hurt our EPCs which again hurts our ability to get other affiliates.

It's very hard for me to approve affiliates with no history. And if you have a high refund rate, it will make it almost impossible to be accepted by any vendors.

For me personally as a vendor, they only ways I'll approve someone without a decent affiliate sales history is that:
 

• I've known you for a while
  
• You have sold your own products
  
• You are a customer
  

Here's a strong technique for creating Youtube tags. The downside is you need to already have a decent number of views for this to work.

Check your Youtube analytics to see what keyword phrases people are using to find your video in the YouTube search results. Then, use these phrases as your tags as well as working them into your video description in legit ways.

These keyword phrases are how people are already finding your video. By using them in your tags and description you can increase your ranking for these keywords.

From your Creator Studio, go to:
Analytics
You'll see your Top 10 Videos => Click on "browse all content"

Click on a video title
Click on Traffic sources
Click "Youtube search" - This will show a list of keyword phrases that people used to find your video in YouTube search

Think about how to sell things in quantity. For example, you can market a set of bath towels to Mom. Or you can market of 100 sets of bath towels to a Mom and Pop motel. They are are both 1 sale, it's a matter of reaching a different market where a single sale can multiple your profit.

I think Amazon has a section for Science and Industry which can give you some ideas.
