AzoogleAds CEO Don Mathis Comes on the ShoeMoney Show

by Jeremy Schoemaker on January 29, 2008 · 26 comments

On last nights ShoeMoney show my guest was AzoogleAds CEO Don Mathis. Its not every week I have the head of one of the largest Affiliate companies in the world and I had a lot of questions for him. We started off slow getting his background… What were his thoughts on the industry. I think most affiliates will find the show interesting. I asked Don about the million dollar settlement donation to the Florida attorney General and also their recent change in affiliate referrals which was one of the most asked questions sent to me. Don also talked about the future of affiliate marketing, the reason you should go with time tested affiliate companies and not the new fly by night affiliate companies popping up all over.

Just FYI I plan on doing a live show every Tuesday 5pm central until further notice. You can call in or ask live questions in the chat room.

Here is the show:

P.S. It looks like the webmaster radio link is super saturated so you can download it from here also:

Great Interview…I guess my $100 wasn’t as dumb as I thought it was when I asked it!

Whew!

I wish you had a trash can for bad comment typing…

I meant “my $1000 what to do question”

Good quality interview, the audio difference in the volume between you and the CEO was alittle off but i found it an excellent insight into something i’m just starting to dabble in.

Shoe was dropping spam when Google was earthless
When meta tags had purpose and backlinks were worthless
When the SERPs was dirtless and before TLA had surfaced
Underground before Matt Cutts had his hands on PageRank
Quality content
Pre links exchange and splog posts (Yes, the Shoe hits the splogs)
Keyword researches
Before the links was purchased
Matt Cutts stands in person
No care for spam or hijacks
Selling links at a yard sale
PageRank merchants
G don’t care

Unconscious servers its disaster time
When spam hijacks SERPs AdSense spirals like blackholes

That was my first thought as well. A million for a payoff. But anyways back to you Shoemoney, glad to see that you are doing the live shows again. Looking forward to your live show.

Very interesting interview and well worth a listen. To be honest, I had no idea that Azoogle were that big or established.
