ClickBank has rolled out a new order form today and boy is it ugly.
While they kept the layout the same, they changed the blue to a brown but left it on a blue background.
On their blog they said the new one outperformed the old in split testing. Which I am sure that it does over-all but it might not for your market. So keep an eye on your conversions
I’ve just installed two WordPress plugins that are just great.
The first one, Admin Drop Down Menu, takes the vertical admin menu and replaces it with a compact, horizontal menu.
If you, like many people, don’t like the huge, default menu on WordPress, I highly suggest it.
The other plugin I installed is the All in One SEO Pack. It makes your blog more SEO friendly. You should get it if you want more traffic from the engines.

On a popular marketing forum I visit, perhaps to much, the topic of PayPal and buyer complaints on digital items & services come up a lot.
Generally, the person is asking what to do about the complaints and multiple always reply “refund it as PayPal always finds in the favor of the buyer.”
Well, this is far from the truth.
After my trial of IE 8 I have finally gotten my shortcuts to once again open in new tabs instead of reusing windows.
So here are the ways to do it. Each one may or may not work for you and if you screw something up, don’t blame me. 
Method 1:
I took the plunge and download IE 8 when Microsoft let me know about it via the updates manager and I un-installed it shortly after.
Anyway, at fitst IE 8 seemed to be OK but then it started freezing when I opened multiple tabs.
Then when I clicked an email link, it would keep reusing the same window and sometimes freezing if it wasn’t loaded already. And this would cause Outlook Express to freeze.
When using ClickBank to process your payments, you have to expect more refund requests because they will honor any refund request within 60.
I know this. It doesn’t bother me like it does some people.
However, it does bother me when a person asks for support, the download again or replies to a receipt asking about a different order and ClickBank REFUNDS it.
ICANN who is basically responsible for managing the assignment of domain names and IP addresses, has a new proposal that can help you kill your competition called Rapid Suspension System.
Basically, for a small few, someone can complain, the site will be removed and THEN you get to defend yourself.
Yeah, it’s a half-ass backwards method.
Gmail has a neat little feature called “Plus Addressing” that in reality, gives you unlimited emails for use with a single GMail account. It’s also easy to use and can be done on the fly.
Here’s how it works:
If your GMail address is “email@gmail.com” you would simply put “email+word@gmail.com” to create a new email address.
Benefits of Plus Addressing:
Good news!
ClickBank has finally decided to leave the 80s and implement a customer support ticket system.
I honestly don’t know why ClickBank has been so against ticket systems and did everything strictly by email. Infact, in the past when I had to get an account approved, they denied me because I was using a support system instead of an email address on the download page.
Anyway, ClickBank says that it will require buyers to use the ticket system when they want a refund. Thus giving the vendor 24 hours to try and save the sale.
Let’s keep our fingers crossed and…
Welcome ClickBank to the 21st Century.
