Affiliate Meter – Track All Your Affiliate Stats in One Place
If you are into affiliate marketing this may be something that can give you more hours in the day. This tool is a software that is run from your computer (not web based) where you load all your login information into affiliate networks in one place. You can then get a reading of your income from one place, it remembers your login and passwords, it even tracks your ad words, and gives you a view of the big picture. That’s the good news. The bad news is it has a monthly fee associated with it. In my opinion this is a great idea with a bad pricing structure. For more information go to affmeter.com
Create Your Own Magazine
I hesitated to include this as its not really a web tool, but it is a tool webmasters could use for promotion. It’s called Mag Cloud (http://magcloud.com). You can have your own magazine printed for .20 a page and then sell it. For example, a 20-page magazine would be four bucks plus shipping. And you can make money! You set your issue price and all proceeds above the base price go to you. Shipping is a flat $1.40/copy (USPS first class mail) for quantities 1-9, or a flat $13 for quantities from 10-100 (per box of 10-100). You basically submit your PDF document and they turn it into a magazine and handle the shipping. It’s an interesting concept for those looking to promote their websites offline. There is no minimum order.
