MixedMarketArts Will Soon Be Moving
Thats right, I have decided that this blog will be better off on CollinLaHay.com, so I will be transferring it fairly soon (after the new logo is done).
There are a number of reasons, but the main one is for branding purposes.
MarketLeverage Contest Ends in 10 Days
So there are only 10 days left in my MarketLeverage Contest, and to be completely honest, it was a flop for the goals I had in mind. When I announced a post about NeverblueAds when I was first getting my feet wet in affiliate marketing, I had over 20 affiliates the very next day, and one of whom was making over $3000/month. I didn’t even provide any prizes for that one.
The MarketLeverage contest hasn’t done as well. I have only referred 7 new affiliates to MarketLeverage, and one of those didn’t get approved. I have 6 active affiliates, and only two have earned any money and are elligible to win the prizes.
Blog World Free Ticket Entry
Here is a quick video I recorded recently as an entry to John Chow’s Blog World Expo Giveaway. As I said earlier, I am going to BlogWorldExpo 2008 in Vegas on September 20-21, and I would be stupid to pass up a 5 minute chance at saving myself a $300+ ticket. Hey, it beats the odds I will have in Vegas!
For those of you who own the Super Nintendo Console, you are not going crazy, that IS infact the Donkey Kong Bramble Scramble theme! Mhwahhahaha.

MarketLeverage Guest Review 2
The following is Melvin Dichoso’s guest opinion of MarketLeverage, an up and coming affiliate company. Melvin wrote his review of MarketLeverage as an entry to my MarketLeverage Contest. There are three ways to enter the contest, and writing a review was one of them. If you are interested in joining, there are two $179 Flip Mino video cameras, $100 in giftcards, and 10 2GB USB pens up for grabs. (Read more about the contest here) With that put aside, here is Melvin’s opinions of MarketLeverage.

MarketLeverage was the first affiliate program I ever signed up with. This review will look at the application process, affiliate manager, control panel, and offers.
Stumbleupon Removes 200 Friend Limit
Good news for all of you who abuse Stumbleupon (Updated post) for lots of traffic. The company has just announced that they are going to be redoing a few things on how the profiles are setup, and that they have eliminated the 200 friend limit.
For those of you who don’t know, the more friends that subscribe to your stumbles, the more traffic that you can send to an article. People with tons of followers are considered “authority stumblers” and send far more traffic than a new user can when they each stumble an article.
