Yazing continues to grow rapidly!

In October of 2015 we finally launched Yazing.com.  I have had the idea for the business for many years and was one of those ideas that just stuck around and got better and better over time.  Many business ideas just aren't like that.  The concept if fairly simple, make it easy for members to earn large cash rewards both for everything they recommend and purchase online. 

For years at both Cyberia and Imwave we have had private access to these large marketing commissions that the top sites offered as well as their current deals and coupon codes.  Yazing is an attempt to simplify the process and open it up to EVERYONE. 

I wanted to create a platform that would pass through 100% of the cash rewards earned to our members for their recommendations and purchase and earn money for the business without taking a cut of our members transactions (like most companies do).  My current theory, that seems to be showing signs of success, is that if we can get people sharing their links to earn money on their recommendations, that these links, would increase the SEO value of our deal pages, and Yazing would make money on all the transactions that come in organically through the search engines.

Yazing has been growing rapidly.  We just posted a monthly update where we detail some of the specifics including over $5.5 million dollars in sales for our brands and nearly 100k in cash rewards for our members.

If you haven't checked out the site, please do and let me know what you think.  If you are not making money on your recommendations and purchases, you can be sure someone else is taking that available cash!

Introducing Yazing

As many of you know, besides my efforts at Imwave, I have started working on launching another business called Yazing.  Yazing has been an idea that I have had for many years, and has been one of those ideas that while evolving over time, the core has remained the same, enabling people to earn cash rewards when their online brand and product recommendations generate sales.

Here is a quick introduction video I created with GoAnimate that explains how it works:

I have been involved in the affiliate marketing / performance marketing industry since it's beginnings in 1996 when we used to post banners on the Cyberia home page, until most recently as a performance search engine advertising agency with Imwave.

Now I hope to leverage my deep understanding of the industry and what advertisers are looking for to create a platform that opens up the available affiliate commissions to the mass market while insuring that our members meet FTC and advertiser guidelines by having them recommend brands and products landing pages on Yazing.com.

It should be a fun ride!

What does Imwave Do?

We know many of our friends and family aren't quite sure what Imwave does.  We recently published the following video to help explain a little better.  Understand that the primary audience is for potential clients who already have an established company and an affiliate program setup where they pay commissions for sales and leads generated by marketing partners like Imwave.

Best Wifi Extender Solution For Your Home - Read Before Buying a Wifi Extender

I have been searching for the best wifi extension solition for my home for quite some time and have tested a bunch of solutions.  My friends have been asking about the solution that I ultimately settled on for my home, so I though I would turn it into an in home wireless extension tutorial blog post.

First let me say, I love my Verizon FiOs internet connection, it is fast and reliable and I am thrilled to be living in an area the has it.  The problem I had is that even with their newest FiOs wifi router, there were areas in my home where I needed fast, reliable internet connections that the wifi just wasn't reaching the Kitchen with the quality of signal we needed.  The wifi extenders I tested were "ok" but extending the wifi cut down on the speed and quality even more, so while I could get a connection, the speed was horrible and wasn't working for everyone in the family.

After researching and testing multiple solutions, I finally settled on an Internet over powerline solution to extend the internet from my office the kitchen.  I bought a TRENDnet Powerline 500 AV Nano Adapter Kit from Amazon that has two adaptors.  I plugged one into the socket in my office and connected it directly to the router via ethernet, and then I plugged the other one in the kitchen.  After pushing the sync buttons I was good to go.

This is all you really need to do if the device(s) you are trying to connect to the internet accept an ethernet connection (DVD Player, Game System, AppleTV, etc...), but if you are still looking to get wireless connectivity, I suggest plugging in an access point device into the powerline.

I really liked the easy setup and touch screens of the Almond Wifi Extenders I had tested, and they have an easy option to put them into access point mode. Once I connected the Almond device set in access point mode into the ethernet port of the Powerline Adaptor, I was good to go with Wifi in the Kitchen.

Now everyone is happy and I am consdering purching a few more powerline adaptors to connect the kids Xbox in the basement and the AppleTV in the bedroom for faster streaming.
