Hi and welcome to "Products & Services".
The main purpose of this page is to offer visitors some products and services that may be of use to them. Be assured, there is nothing on this page that links to anything of an adult nature in any way. I have a young daughter who visits this site regularly and if it's not suitable for her to see then it doesn't go on - simple as that!! It's difficult for me to control what the links attach to as things can change but if you find anything which turns out to be unsuitable or just plain doesn't work, tell me and I'll put it right ASAP.
Please use the Contact Us section for any questions, comments or suggestions.
About this page
If you're expecting a page that looks like it was designed by someone with a degree in astrophysics or a master of web marketing - sorry! I'm an ordinary sort of guy just like the rest of you out there who works hard for what he gets and doesn't take kindly to having his time and, more importantly, his money wasted on junk that will never yield any return in a month of Sundays. I'm probably going to upset folks that claim "my system / programme is the best there is and you can make money while you sleep". My response is, "yea, right!" To all of you out there peddling such stuff the open invitation is "prove it" without me paying for it!
So what you have is a simple page without flashy videos and sound bites or special offers that flash up when you try to leave. It may not be the slickest there is but it's simple and honest. If anyone thinks they can improve on it FOR FREE then let me know! Until I can figure out how to get stuff like "banners" working, I'm afraid we're stuck with plain old text links for now.
Traffic exchanges
If you already have a product / website etc., that you wish to promote or advertise, then traffic exchanges are not a bad idea. Quite simply, you surf other peoples websites in exchange for credits which you then use to "buy" advertising for your own website. The theory is that while surfing, you might find someone with a product that you are interested in and earn a credit while doing so! You can also purchase a number of credits quite cheaply which are used to drive visitors to your site. I did this and for quite a small outlay (a few pounds) I was able to generate over 1,000 hits in a week - not a bad investment. I've listed some of the more popular ones below that I've actually used.
Click Crazey
TS 25
Traffic Swarm
Dragon Surf
I Love Hits
Adland Pro
Easy Hits 4 U
Hit Gusher
Click Voyager
List Joe
List Bandit
Traffic Punk
Triple Your List
MyViralads
List Joe & List Bandit are two of the main ones I use to promote this site as building up enough credits for advertising on a regular basis is really easy. Triple Your List is another good one as it does actually send you opt-in leads that you can mail to.
As I discover more decent ones like these I'll add them onto the page. If you find any that are no good or just plain don't work, let me know and off comes the link.
Domains
Quite simply, without teaching you all out there to suck eggs, this is the "name" of your website. Mine is www.cardiffbiker.co.uk - easy! The big thing these days is to have as personal and unique a domain name as possible and the trend seems to be moving away from the common or garden .co, .uk., .com., etc. There is a fast growing movement towards having a domain for "life" as it were with the end "bit" being .ws which stands for, you guessed it, WEB SITE! So, you could have, for example, www.fredbloggs.ws. If this is what pushes your buttons (and it's catching on like wildfire) then the ONLY place you'll get a ".ws" is the link below.
Global Domains International
If all you want is a cost effective (ok, cheap) domain name then click on the link below.
Pay to read
Almost sounds too good to be true, someone sends you an email and you read it or surf some web pages and get paid. That's how it works folks. Worth checking out - if you're surfing anyway then you may as well get paid for it!

This is the new "BIG THING" that everyone is doing..................except me - until now. Apparently, there is a way to make some extra cash from sites like Yuwie, the cash being generated according to the amount of page views. I'm not absolutely sure how this works but I'm hoping someone will explain it to me!! In the meantime it has to be worth a look, just click on the link below.

Sponsoring
If MLM (multi-level marketing) is your thing then there are more programmes out there than you'll ever sort through in a lifetime but a few names seem to crop up time and again as being recognised as leaders in their field. MLM isn't for everyone but if it is then take a look at these guys.
Details to follow soon - might be a while coming as I'm trying to find one that I can:
understand / doesn't cost the earth / actually works / is honest(!) / doesn't insult me / doesn't let me think I can earn a million by bedtime / doesn't show me pictures of wonderful houses with wonderful cars parked outside in wonderful locations that..................................look very similar to a few other websites.....................
If I find something that is worth a look I'll put it on. If it turns out to be rubbish I'll take it off again - simple!
