You know how I feel about my coupon sites….I’ve got nearly 50 of them!  This weekend was unbelievable for AllPizzaCoupons.com….with the following Google rankings, the site got plenty of qualified traffic this weekend:

# 7 Pizza Specials

#10 Pizza Delivery Specials

#11 Pizza Coupons

#9 Pizza Restaurant Coupons

# 1 & #2 Frozen Pizza Coupons

I also see that AllFastFoodCoupons.com did very well too, traffic is up nearly 1,000% and doesn’t indicate that it’s slowing down at all.  Got to keep tweaking the SEO and inbound links…only two weeks until the Super Bowl.

On January 12, 2010 the domain name ConanOnFox.com was registered by Fox.com – what do you think??  Where is Conan O’Brien going?

Being that I am a domain name addict, I had to check to see what was happening with haiti-related domain names given the recent tragedy…

I first checked HaitiEarthquake.com which was regsitered on 1/12/10 and redirects to a google page talking about donating money for relief…This is a GOOD use of the domain name.

HaitiEarthquakes.com is a parked site (which means they make money from serving ads) and was created on 1/13/10…hopefully this domain will be used with good intentions since it was just procured!

HaitiEarthquakeDisaster.com was created on 1/13/10 and looks to be taking paypal donations…..doesn’t say what organization it is and when you click on the paypal button to “donate” the paypal page shows “Gift Baskets N Gifts”….certainly suspect – BE CAREFUL!!

HaitiEarthquake.org was regsitered today 1/15/10 and appears to be parked at the moment…..

Makes you think; doesn’t it!

Have a great weekend……

I know I have been on the quiet side lately….been focusing a lot on my Internet Marketing Company and doing MEGA site development since the New Year…..one of my goals for the new year is to focus more on those things that I enjoy and can also make money from….

Good post over at my Internet Marketing Agency on “Is Twitter’s Data Worthless?

It illustrates that Google and Microsoft are paying just about $0.03 for every 1,000 tweets they index in search results.

Please check it out and have a great day!

After weeks of leaks and revelations, the Google phone has been officially revealed….it’s what Google calls a “Superphone”

According to Mashable, this is what they have learned so far:

- The specs match previous leaks. It’s a 3.7″ AMOLED display with a trackball.

- It comes with features such as a light sensor, GPS, and accelerometer. These are all features pioneered by Apple’s iPhone.

- It’s 130 grams in weight and 11.5 mm in width, about the width of a standard #2 pencil.

- The camera is 5MP with LED flash.

- The audio has received an upgrade. It has two microphones, one of which is used for noise cancellation.

- Customization is a key to the Nexus One. There are five home screens to customize your interface.

- Google showed off some of its dynamic touchscreen features of the software. For example, one of the wallpapers is a lake with leaves. When you touch it, it will ripple. It’s quite nifty, actually.

- They worked with the team at CoolIris to visualize photons on the Nexus One in a 3D environment. If you tap on an album, you’ll be able to quickly scan and load photos. You can also tip and dip photos based on your hand motions and the accelerometer.

- Every text field is voice-enabled. Every time you speak, it will process your speech into text. It gets better and better the more you use it.

The phone costs $179 on T Mobile with a two-year contract….to learn more go to Google.com/phone
