Web Marketing Strategy Update

DealDotCom is a new site from Jason Potash & Marc Quarles offering big discounts on the best Internet Marketing products, using a “deal a day” format.

From the site:

“DealDotCom is the place on the web to find all the Internet Marketing products you really want for rock bottom prices. We sell products and services that help save you time and money when it comes to running your online business.”

Unfortunately, there’s no prior notification of which product will be on sale when, nor how much you’ll save. So you have to visit the site regularly — well, daily really — to be sure you don’t miss out getting something you really wanted for a lot less than normal.

Sounds very promising though, and of course you can just bookmark it.

DealDotCom Affiliate Program

There’s also an attractive 3-tier affiliate program, that pays you commissions for life on purchases made by anyone you refer. You also get a commission on sales generated by people introduced by anyone you refer.

As Jason and Marc say on the site, this could bring you some healthy commission checks and a nice passive, residual income.

Recently, I finally got around to looking at the scripts available for the Firefox plugin, Greasemonkey. I was not expecting what I found.

From the main site:

Greasemonkey is a Firefox extension which lets you to add bits of DHTML (”user scripts”) to any web page to change its behavior. In much the same way that user CSS lets you take control of a web page’s style, user scripts let you easily control any aspect of a web page’s design or interaction.

For example, you could:

• Make sure that all URLs displayed in the browser are clickable links
• Improve the usability of a site you frequent
• Route around common and annoying website bugs
• Use the Coral content network selectively.

Most of the scripts are fairly innocuous and are designed to help users get more out of various websites.

But MANY are designed soley to strip ads from pages, remove redirects and even change affiliate links.

Here are some examples:
