my new wordpress blog is almost ready

Hi everyone. As I said a while back, I have almost completed the move from blogger to a self-hosted WordPress blog. So far so good, I'm almost done, but if you're curious to know how it is going to look you can check it out at:

http://alansmoneyblog.com

The only thing that I cannot figure out how to do - and maybe one of you can help me - is how to place a banner advertisement at the right hand side of the header. Once I get that up and running it will be perfect - and I'm a big perfectionist.

Sorry for the lack of updates

Sorry everyone for the lack of updates to my blog, but I've been pretty busy working on building and promoting my GoldenBux.com PTC website. The site continues to grow, but sadly it seems to have slowed down a bit. Another problem I've been having is a few additions to the site have been delayed slightly. I have in mind to add advertising packages in the range of 100, 200 & 500 visitors. That way you won't have to pay for 1000 visitors (the smallest package so far) and only get 312 (the number of members as of Sept 13) or get duplicate visitors.

However, we still need to attract some advertisers so I've lowered the price of the 1000 visitors package to $18 from now until September 29.

Hm, well, seeing as how I am pretty busy with this new venture of mine don't expect too many updates in the next two weeks, but I'll try my best to sneak in a few important news items or reviews of a few earning opportunities.

Take care everyone, and don't forget to sign-up to my site :)..

Almighty Google drops all e-gold adwords ads

Well, I'm a bit shocked to hear this. According to Digital Money World Google has decided to prevent any future use of adwords ads that contain any reference to e-gold, including e-gold exchange, e-gold investment etc. Some have called this move as "fascist" and "anti free-market", others have said that e-gold had it coming and in a way deserves this because of their lack of "self regulation". I think this move is utterly preposterous. Filtering out keywords such as "HYIP" or "e-gold investment" can be somewhat justified on the grounds that it can be easily proven that the majority of such supposed e-gold investment sites are nothing more than ponzi scams, but banning completely the use of "e-gold" as a keyword is ridiculous. E-gold is a CURRENCY, much like US Dollars, and Euros. Who in their right mind would ban people from using the word "dollar" or "euro" in their advertisements. Google's decision does not seem wise to me and I think that either they have been pressured by some "outside influence" or they are embarking on some sort of moral crusade to rid the internet of ponzi scams and the like. Well, I've got news for you Google; you're not going to accomplish much because all those advertisers that used keywords such as "e-gold" will simply move to your competitors' sites.

Anyways, I am going to stop here before I go on a rant. I am interested in hearing what you people think about this, so feel free to post a response to this post.

Here is a copy of the e-mail Google sent out to its customers:

Dear AdWords Advertiser,

We are writing to inform you of a change to Google’s advertising policies that may affect your AdWords account.

In the coming weeks, we will no longer accept AdWords ads that promote e-gold.

Ads and websites are also not accepted for related content which includes, but is not limited to, e-gold exchange, e-gold investment, and e-gold accounts.

When we make this change, Google will suspend all ads identified as being in violation of this policy. If your account is affected by this policy change, please remove any e-gold content from your ad text and website. Current e-gold advertisers are encouraged to instead advertise other products or services that comply with our policies.

As a business, Google must make decisions regarding the advertising that we accept. We apologize for any inconvenience this policy change may cause you.

Sincerely,

The Google AdWords Team

** As noted in our advertising Terms and Conditions, Google may refuse any ads or terminate ad campaigns at any time, for any reason. Please note that the decisions we make concerning advertising in no way affect the search results we deliver. Google offers broad access to content across the web without censoring search results.

Update from PPREI admin

Here is the latest update from the PPREI Admin crew. For those of you who had concerns (like me) that they took off and ran, well, this should quell those concerns; for now..lol just kidding :) your money is safe. Take care everyone.

Resend of earlier email update just to let you know we are still working on it.

Hello

How are you?

You may notice that the PPREI site has been unavailable. This is because we are updating to the new site. Unfortunately we have to manually move over all invested amounts as the 2 sites are not compatible and as such we cannot move the details from the old site to the new site automatically.

This being said, please watch for the new site and a new email once it is online by the first part of next week (I am shooting for Tuesday).

As for those that have previously been paying monthly into the Early Bird plan.......We will now be accepting wires directly to us as well as Ebullion and PayPal. More details on how the move from FriendlyPay to these will work next week.



Thank you kindly

PPREI (Paradise Properties Real Estate Investments) website is down

Hmmm, it appears that the PPREI website is down and has been down for quite a few days now. The last update I heard from the admin (Rupert) was on the PPREI forum where he mentioned something about bringing the new website online. Well, it has been a while and I don't see why it could be taking so long just to bring online their supposedly new website. If anyone has any information about what is going on please get in touch with me. Thanks.
