So I Crack 100 Agloco Referrals…

After cracking one hundred regular readers on my RSS Feed, it looks like that’s not the only thing that has broken the century mark…


I broke 100 AGLOCO referrals… Great…

It appears that my AGLOCO (aff) referrals have decided to grow on without me. I had totally forgotten about it until I heard some mumbling about them not making it in time to launch their viewbar for the seven week marker.

Originally, back in December AGLOCO sent out this email touting how many members they had, and how that mythical viewbar was still 7 – 10 weeks away. Well, the 7th week ended up being last week’ish, and AGLOCO responded at their blog with a post saying that they’d need until March. It looks like they are going to use up ALL the time they bought themselves.

It’s actually getting very difficult NOT to run into an AGLOCO conversation somewhere. I’m starting to have people try to recruit me. I guess because I’ve been pretty silent about it, no one even knows that I have an account. I am disturbed however by the wide eyed glimmer in their eyes as they proceed to give me their pitch. It’s kind of creepy.

At any rate, I’m not going to try to sell you on it. You’re all adults. You figure out if it’s a train (or train wreck) you want to be on, but throw me a bone by using my referral link (aff) if this post has touched you in some way. This will be my last post about AGLOCO until they launch that viewbar. I’m done waiting and I don’t care if the people with big downlines want them to delay it even more so they can build their referrals. People hate being strung along like this. They’re just too afraid of the AGLOCO Nazi’s to say anything. Enough about that…

What’s this (aff) thing? What are you trying to sell me now?

This post also gave me an opportunity to test out my (aff) marker. The aff in (aff) stands for Affiliate as in Affiliate Marking. I’ll be using this on any referral links for anything that gives me a cut of the action. Then that way I’m not accused of suckering you into something. I’ve noticed a lot of bloggers using this to tag their referral links, and I think it’s a good idea and yet another way to add a bit more transparency to a blog.

So from now on when I mention Text Link Ads (aff) or Google Adsense (aff) and that (aff) is there, it’s the same as using a tip jar. If you don’t think I deserve a tip, then don’t use my link. If I don’t put it there, then the link is clean. If I forget, please let me know 😉
