Something I’ve been working on for the next release of IMC Lite, Affiliate Branding.

What does Affiliate Branding mean? Well, in short you’ll be able to set your Affiliate ID in the program so that any folks that upgrade to the Pro version from the Lite version will garner you a 30% commission on Internet Marketers Companion.

This means you can offer a branded version of IMC Lite through your website and while providing your users with a great piece of software to help folks keep tabs on their PPC spend and income, you’ll also be able to pick up some nice affiliate income also.

Kind Regards,

Hi Folks,

The next release of the blasters imc lite is undergoing final tweaks before release.

New in this release:
* Mouse over on merchant id in PPC and AFF tabs now shows the Merchant name.
* Program can check if a new version is available and download it to your desktop.
* Various streamlining and code fixes.

Kind Regards,
Shane

Well it took a while but I’m finally back in the world of Mac. It looked a good time to jump back in with the new Macbooks now having enough grunt to be useful and small enough to be nice and portable.

I’ve always had a soft spot for the aluminum laptops and spent a few quality years with a 17″ Powerbook back in the day.

What does this mean for IMC? Well of course you’re all going to have to buy Macs right?

Of course not. I use REALBasic to code IMC and it’s a crossplatform programming language. I already have the new IMC Lite ported and running on both Windows and Mac and it shouldn’t take me long to get the full version across also.

Actually what’s taking all the time is that I’ve upgraded to the Professional version which has a few more bells and whistles. Part of that upgrade process is that some of the objects I was using aren’t there anymore and they have to be upgraded to use the new objects. Nothing major, just requires a little bit of quality time.

I’m hoping to give the site a revamp soon, using the graphics I had made last year. My lovely wife is going to use me as a guinea pig as she starts creating custom wordpress themes.

Look for new versions with Mac compatability soon.
Cheers,

Shane

Hi Folks,

Looks like the folks at AVG have flagged something in REALBasic incorrectly as a virus. This also affects IMC.

I’ve had my AVG telling me both the REALBasic executable and those I’ve compiled using it as having virii.

I’ve recently changed to PC-Cillin and it doesn’t have the same issues.

All programs are guaranteed virus free from Orange Sands.

OK, well maybe not featured as such. I was looking through my email and saw a Google Alert come through for the the Internet Marketers Companion website.

I had recently uploaded Internet Marketers Companion to download.com and I was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was once I started the process. Now I just wish I had done it last year.

So I was looking at the links in the email and I opened this one . To my very pleasant surprise it was at the NY Times. Looks like the download.com items are syndicated to a lot of very nice websites.

Internet Marketers Companion has already become a favourite download and I’m looking forward to many more Affiliate Marketers getting a look at what it can do for them.

Best Regards,

Shane
