Saw this website on the news today. The fellow in question saw how many jobs disappeared after the last mini depression that he wanted to shop locally and support Canadian businesses. During the broadcast, the reporter followed him around his home where he showed furniture, stereo components and more that were all Canadian made.The broadcast also mentioned Canadian Made as a web resource for products made in Canada. If you want to support Canada, then this might be the place to look for suppliers of products. If you have a Canadian made product, the website allows you to add your listing for free.

I wanted to take a moment and just shoot out a few great websites that I’ve found recently.
Each of these websites show some great article announcements and such. They’re filled with article’s from the authors which then allow you to go to their websites and read the entire stories. Topics vary according to each website, but include money, finance, weight loss, parenting, writing, sports, golf, fishing etc.
Here they are: Hot Spot Blogs, Announced Blogs, I Seek Articles and one “odd” one on internet marketing.

Domain names are what makes the internet what it is. It’s said that “all the best domain names are gone”, and you should really consider all the facts about the name before purchasing. Has it got the keywords you’re looking for in the name, or are you more interested in branding your domain name? Get the domain name you want quick before it’s taken as it’s a vicious domain name world out there. I’ve had it happen where I thought of a good name, looked it up and it was available. Then in thinking about it, I paused for a day or so, then went back and it was gone. Below is what can happen when you don’t take the time to think about your domain name before acting and marketing your domain name.
All of these are legitimate companies that didn’t spend quite enough time considering how their online names might appear … and be misread.

I’ve been approved by Clickbank!
After having my Bodybuilder Interviews website up and running for about a year using 1Shoppingcart.com as my payment processor, I’ve decided to move it to a new domain and name and market it through Clickbank.
With 1Shoppingcart.com, I’m charged on a monthly basis $80 US for managing my product downloads and handling my autoresponder.
The disadvantage is that I’m not listed in any marketplace and have to manually find affiliates to promote my product and I have to pay a monthly fee.
By moving to clickbank, my product is listed in the marketplace which thousands or hundreds of thousands of affiliate marketers visit to find products. A lot of affiliates also automate the entire process using their Clickbank Malls or Product RSS feeds.
Initially, I was marketing the interviews as “bodybuilder Interviews” because they’re audio interviews with the worlds top bodybuilders giving their secrets to fat loss and building your ultimate physique.
Alas, I’ve decided to market it as “fat loss insider secrets” reaching a more targeted niche, people looking to improve their fat loss or weight loss goals, rather than appealing to Bodybuilders. It’s just a bit more focused.
I also redesigned the product logo or image to match the product.
Before moving over to Clickbank, I wanted to be able to secure my download page and be able to manage many future products as well as affiliates, so I turned to Easy Clickmate software
