That's Why They Call It Crapcenter

After being locked out of MSN all weekend, I managed to log in today. It was very disappointing to see that none of my ads have been running for the last three days.

I'm having exactly the same problem as before. The campaign started out well but just withered away and died. Rang help desk and they can't help. They will escalate the problem on the UK targetted ads but they don't have the right equipment to view the USA targetted ads. Give me strength! The poor guy there sent me the link so I can contact the help desk in the USA. Now waiting for a reply.

I would really like to know how the ads can be fine when they start but then wear out in a matter of days.

Autumn Is Here and MSN Adcenter Is Down Again

Within a matter of a few days we have gone from summer into autumn. It's quite a relief to feel cool after all that mind-numbing heat.

My autoresponder problems got sorted out. Get Response say they found no irregularities with my account, so that's a good thing. It is a pity they don't have a mechanism in place to warn their customers when this sort of thing happens. If I had known, I could have got it sorted out in time to publish my September newsletter before the month ended.

My PPC campaign at MSN seems to be taking off after I made all the changes. The Adcenter is closed again today. Seems like Saturdays are their big day for maintenance. Can't tweak my ads there but there are plenty of other things to be done. Averaging over 400 visitors a day so far. Fingers crossed for the rest of the month.

Published a new article today. It's called Using Self Motivation Techniques To Keep Your Goals In Focus. Not exactly a snappy title but the best I could come up with - at least it tells you what the article is about.

Into October, MSN Sucks And Dollar Monster Returns

Visit Hunting Venus.com Work At Home Directory
October is here.

September was a funny month. It started out on a high note. Pity it didn't continue on that level. It was a series of disasters for me.

MSN PPC advertising was working great and I was looking forward to masses of new visitors. It suddenly stopped. Yesterday they managed to send me a measly 2 visitors. To add insult to injury, I am no longer getting visitors via their organic searches. There is obviously something wrong with their system but they are not admitting it. I am sick of being given the run around.

I produced my September newsletter, held it back so I could include a programme that was about to go into prelaunch and then found out Get Response had disabled my main autoresponder so my newsletter could not go anywhere. So I missed that opportunity of building a downline during a prelaunch period. The thing that really got to me was the fact that Get Response did not bother to tell me they had disabled my autoresponder and removed all my contacts. That was my main contact list and it had taken me over two years to build. I'm not happy.

Keep seeing a new site called eDalty on the traffic exchanges. Apparently it's a payment processor and auction site. It might be perfectly legit but something about it just looks fishy. Maybe I'm just in a bad mood.

Also saw Dollar Monster being advertised. That is a total scam and I never expected to see them again after they took the money and ran. Do they really think people won't remember as far back as 2004?

After almost being reduced to hysterics, I calmed down, regained focus and control and managed to get quite a lot of work done. Wrote a couple of articles, published one new article and caught up on my email. Only thing I didn't manage was building a bit more of my new websites. Why am I building two at once? It just seemed like a good idea when I started and the one I started first was not supposed to take this long. My new mini site is due to be reviewed by the team at
MPAM tomorrow. I feel strangely nervous. Silly, because they won't throw me out and I can always change things.

October is starting on a pretty low note for me. I hope that means it will get better from here on.
