Sorry its been so slow posting. In the last 2 weeks I went from 5 days in Miami to NYC then to Moline IL then I just got home.
Some big things happening 
So now just catching up on email for the last 2 weeks and returning calls from people who think I am ignoring them =(
I just found out today that Marcus Frind will be joining the “Making Money With Contextual Advertising” panel in SES San Jose so that was really cool news. Marcus owns the Plenty Of Fish dating website and kills it in contextual revenue. If people thought I put up some big checks just wait until that panel… course his is in canadian… jk =P

Jeremy, thank you for the link to your “pops” web site One thing you failed to mention was the fact that I didn’t know how to turn a computer on three years ago. Due to the fact that you kept prompting me to do a fishing web site and the name suggested by your wife “J”, WhereIFish.com, it has all jelled into a fishing forum website that is growing bigger every day.
All this, wouldn’t be happening without your encouragement and knowledge. Thanks so much, Dad

Frind makes a ton of money..

Shoe Money back on his grizzy
July 27, 2007 at 7:02 am
technical solutions don’t necessarily mean that you also always find the time to use them.
July 27, 2007 at 7:01 am
yeah, it’s been kind of silent around here. lucky you’re back
July 25, 2007 at 2:58 pm
Glad you are back
July 25, 2007 at 12:34 pm
Yeah – Me too!
July 25, 2007 at 10:45 am
Glad you’re back!
July 24, 2007 at 6:57 am
It’s the Plenty O Fish stories that inspire me and keep me focused. Drive on…
July 23, 2007 at 5:49 pm
When are you getting a Lambo, Shoe?
July 23, 2007 at 4:59 pm
Shouldnt that be the other way around?
July 23, 2007 at 4:21 pm
It does the job the way it is, who knows the look might be part the reason it’s so successful.
July 23, 2007 at 3:28 pm
Glad to see that you’re back home. And I’m sure you’re glad to be back home, right? Ya know, there are solutions to your problems of not being able to post that much while you’re on the road: do it remotely, blog via cell phone, start microblogging via twitter or something like that?
July 23, 2007 at 2:20 pm
LOL, I don’t think even ShoeMoney would give it up for anything less than a billion.
July 23, 2007 at 2:16 pm
Busy days. Hope you soted everything out.
July 23, 2007 at 2:16 pm
I wouldn’t be bored knowing I had a gazillion dollars in the bank. Well actually I wouldn’t be at home either!
Anyone think he should change the look of the site? Seems dated. But that may add to the appeal.
July 23, 2007 at 1:54 pm
Welcome back!
July 23, 2007 at 1:40 pm
Traveling the country is always a good time. But of course, the downside is being away from the computer. For me, this is the hardest part of leaving home base!
July 23, 2007 at 1:06 pm
Thanks, Shoe.
I replaced all the code last night and so far so good – it usually takes a couple of hours for AA to start showing irrelevant ads – I’ll shoot you an email when this occurs.
Thanks for the great customer care – I appreciate your time.
July 23, 2007 at 12:46 pm
thats the first i’ve seen of anyone having targetting problems :-\
July 23, 2007 at 12:43 pm
I use the keyword of my ebay sellerid – this means it shows my auctionads on ebay when they are there otherwise it shows the best converting items on ebay.
If you want to email me the sites I will look into it but we have not had any targeting issues.
July 23, 2007 at 12:42 pm
Yeah but it’s still canadian.
July 23, 2007 at 12:41 pm
Wouldn’t you get bored if you just chilled at home all the time?
July 23, 2007 at 12:06 pm
welcome back home, I wish I could travel to all these places like you
July 23, 2007 at 11:41 am
Nice you made it back man! thats the only downfall of traveling is catching back up.
July 23, 2007 at 11:33 am
Marcus should spend an extra hour a day on design, lol. I give the guy big props, but POF is visually hideous
July 23, 2007 at 11:32 am
Hah, tell me about it! My adsense check this month was about the same in canadian dollars as it was in amerian – with the bank exchange rate and all :S
July 23, 2007 at 9:08 am
Will The Shoemoney Show be on tomorrow?
July 23, 2007 at 8:03 am
He was also featured on the Today show. He chills at home with his girlfriend and programs about an hour a day. This guy has it locked down.
July 23, 2007 at 6:50 am
Shoe!
I went to Canada the other day to go gambling and got .02 on my USD… UGH
I think Canada is taking over
July 23, 2007 at 5:44 am
let’s chip in for a big shoe casket.
July 23, 2007 at 3:56 am
Don’t worry, shoe. I forgive you.
Steve
July 23, 2007 at 2:19 am
It’s been awfully long
Lookin’ forward to new posts!
July 23, 2007 at 2:13 am
Moline isn’t to far from me. I drove by there today on my across state trip.
July 23, 2007 at 1:37 am
Why mock the CAD Shoe? Our dollar is not that far behind the US
July 23, 2007 at 1:06 am

July 23, 2007 at 1:03 am

July 23, 2007 at 12:11 am
Welcome back home. Seems you had a good time. I’m looking forward to your new post.

Well – the comment was published.
I don’t want to give the wrong impression – Auction Ads has been fantastic – but in the last 7-10 days the keyword matching hasn’t been working well at all.
It’s impossible to monetize when the ads have zero relevance.
July 22, 2007 at 10:49 pm
How to attend a web funeral?
July 22, 2007 at 10:29 pm
Nice.
July 22, 2007 at 10:11 pm
The thing is he owns the whole website to himself, so all the profits are his. His adsense check is enough to live on. For more info try youtube or google it, his story is definitely an inspiration for webmasters trying to make money online.
July 22, 2007 at 10:08 pm
How much is plentyoffish making?
July 22, 2007 at 10:06 pm
Google bought out shoemoney.com
July 22, 2007 at 9:48 pm
Big things happening? Like what?
July 22, 2007 at 9:05 pm
And yes I know that was a long time ago for the H2 but I figured I’d mention it since it was in the related posts
July 22, 2007 at 9:03 pm
You don’t know me, but I was having Shoemoney withdrawal and believe you me that is not a pretty sight!
And congrats on the H2! I’d have gone for a Dodge Ram or a Ford Powerstroke personally, but yeah that’s just me.
July 22, 2007 at 9:01 pm
i saw marcus on the today show. this guy hit it big with adsense. He’s one of my main motivators. You gotta see his “office”…
July 22, 2007 at 8:45 pm
yeah, i have recently started reading your blog, and seems kind of slow, i am glad this is out of the norm!
July 22, 2007 at 8:10 pm
Good to have you back, Shoe.
Please please please look into Auction Ad issues – I have over a dozen “made for Auction Ads” sites that are all F’ed right now because AA is displaying non-related ads – I’ve got DJ equipment sites showing Chanel handbags and Timeshare sites showing Wii games – HELP!
I’ve emailed AA support 3 times and have gotten one “We’ll fix it in 24 hours” – that was over a week ago.
For some sites, I re-generate and publish the code and the ads will match the keywords for a few hours – then they show irrelevant ads once again. Other keywords – like “timeshare” – won’t even generate correctly.
In fact, for this blog – shoemoney.com – I’m seeing Chanel sunglasses ads.
Don’t want you to publish this comment – I’m a big fan of you and Auction Ads – just thought this would be the best way to inform you.
Thanks,
John
July 22, 2007 at 8:10 pm
That’s going to be one serious panel to get on board with.
July 22, 2007 at 7:58 pm
Well, the Canadian dollar will probably be at par by then – it is around 96 cents right now.
July 22, 2007 at 7:00 pm
Wow, you’ve been busy. Welcome back.
July 22, 2007 at 6:49 pm
Hope the trip brought new perspectives – welcome back and thanks for providing updates where you could
July 22, 2007 at 6:37 pm
welcome back! I hope you liked the t-shirt
July 22, 2007 at 6:27 pm
We thought you died!
