Speedlinking - 18 October 2007
A few links from the last day or three:
- Amazon’s Associate Program have announced that their Amazon MP3 Downloads can earn Associates 20% commission.
- Pro Blogger Marshall Kirkpatrick shares how he uses Twitter to pay his Rent
- Ooooh - Apple is releasing it’s new OS - Leopard on October 26. - the day before I go on holiday for 10 days - now the question is whether I should take my Macbook Pro with me - with 300 new features to play with I’m very tempted!
- Nominations for the 2007 Weblog Awards are Open.
- Jonathan Fields asked a number of bloggers how they’d build traffic through off-blog activities without spending any money - an interesting array of tips.

I have just been over to Johnathan Fields site and read the article. What a “RIPPER” the insights are not particularly new, but it is interesting to read each person’s reasons and contact approaches. I really is a MUST READ.

Thanks for the links!
Does anyone know if it’s possible for European (German) bloggers to participate in Amazon’s Associate Program?

@ Nothing,
It came right up for me, try clearing your browser cache as it has helped me before.
Jonathans article I found to be insightful and an interesting approach to some ideas on increasing your traffic.
The best part was the links to some great sites that I hadn’t found yet…

It would be interesting to find anyone who has gotten permanent return traffic from getting at least one Digg or Reddit or Delicious Homepage.

That 20% is high compared to Amazons usual commission. After December it goes to 10% which is still high. However my overall experience of Amazon so far is that after doing well initially with I have found it very slow to get results.
