I am really pleased I decided to give GoDaddy.com a try. I have been using them to purchase my domains for a while now and I am still wondering why I was paying $35 a year at networkyouknowwho.com when I could have been getting them for less than $10 at GoDaddy.com. That price difference is pretty significant if you are starting out and trying to build a domain name portfoilo. I also just transfered one of my domains to GoDaddy.com a week ago before it expired. I was about to let it run out because I had it at network solutions and didn’t want to pay their inflated prices but I decided to transfer it over at the last minute.

One of the other things I love about GoDaddy.com is the throw in the .net, .ingo, and .biz versions of your name dirt cheap if you want them. I got a .com domain name and it’s .net, .biz, and .info varitaions for an extra $16 last week. That is less than 1 domain would have cost me at some other places. Seriously, check them out if you haven’t.

Hmmmm….Not too sure about this new color scheme.  I may have to work on this.

Well, my new keywords are sustaining their impression and click rates. 20 clicks and I should hit 300k impressions in a couple of hours. This is my very first campaign so I don’t know this for a fact, but I have the impression my click to impression ratio is extremely low. I suppose I am suspecting that since I have said all along my add was very specific about what it was.

I am still working on some arbitrage ideas to try and get my feet wet making money while I work on prioritizing some other ideas. My other projects include a directory, a site dedicated to a specific upcoming MMORPG, and a music related blog. Of course I am also working on this blog and have another side venture starting up involving a “business card” idea. The only problem is I am doing all of this myself; concepts, design, hosting, building the servers to host, programming the sites, and brainstorming new money making ideas. I am not having to spend any money, but I am also using up a lot of time. I am learning a ton doing this by myself though. I can’t wait to look back on this blog in a year and compare it to what I think I know now with what I will know then.
