Affiliate Summit West 2011 T-Shirt Auction For Charity

Posted: 10 Dec 2010 10:43 AM PST

I am auctioning myself to wear your company’s shirt for 3 days during the Affiliate Summit West Event January 2011 in Las Vegas.

I have done this 3 times before and the auction has never gone less than $10,000 as you can see below from previous winners. But there is always a chance you could scoop up this great bargain for less!

All of the winning bidders money (not just the proceeds) goes to the Affiliate Marketers Give Back foundation which is a non profit group lead by Missy Ward (Affiliate Summit Co-Founder).

The winning bidder can pay us by Credit Card, Check, or Wire Transfer.

Go here to see the auction now

Here is the history of my T-Shirt Auction for Charity and details:

At Affiliate Summit West 2009 I agreed to wear your companies logo EXCLUSIVELY at Affiliate Summit west and the auction ended up going for $10,000 !!!!.

The winning bidders Trainsignal, makers of computer training software, were in attendance. We gave the money on behalf of the Affiliate Marketers Give Back foundation to the National Breast cancer society.

Then at Affiliate Summit East 2009 I did the same auction again for the Lincoln City People’s Mission Homeless Shelter and it ended at $11,000.00. The winning bidder was the giant coupon site retailmenot.com

Once more a year ago at Affiliate Summit West 2010 I held an auction that raised $10,100 for the People’s City Mission again, the high bid coming from ClickBooth.

Its really been awesome raising over $30,000 at Affiliate Summit events by wearing a companies t-shirt.

But now its 2011 and we are ready to do it again!

This is a great chance to get your brand out there and also support a GREAT CAUSE!

All of the winning bidders money (not just the proceeds) goes to the Affiliate Marketers Give Back foundation which is a non profit group lead by Missy Ward (Affiliate Summit Co-Founder).

The short version is this:

There is an auction on here for me to wear your companys logo during Affiliate Summit.

The winner will send me 3 shirts to wear at Affiliate Summit West Jan 9-11th 2011 in Las Vegas . I will wear no other shirt than your shirt during the conference and parties.

You will receive a TON of exposure. And A LOT MORE than just a handsome model wearing your logo!

Video Exposure:

At Affiliate Summit this year we have gone through all the background checks, union agreements, and other hoops to be one of very few people allowed to take video inside of Affiliate Summit West. I already have about 15 companies booked to interview them about their services and also will be doing some general video.
I also am asked about 10-20 times to be video interviewed (nobody is supposed to shoot video without authorization people will do it outside of conference areas) and your shirt will be shown.
I have over 10,000 YouTube subscribers and am by far the most subscribed to person in this niche. All of the subscribers get alerted each time I upload a video. Each of my videos also has a chance of being syndicated by techcrunch/mashable or another large HUGE website and giving your company more exposure.
I will also put the video on our CDN which will be ShoeMoney branded and get more exposure on the blog here.

Photo Exposure:

My photo gallery is the most visited section of ShoeMoney.com other than the root domain. Check these stats out from the last year:

(Click to enlarge)

You are not reading that wrong… over 2 million page views and almost 1.7 MILLION UNIQUE page views. That’s quite an amazing reach!

But besides the TONS of photos I will have in my own gallery, there will be loads of them on flickr and Facebook that people will tag and they’ll be seen by many.

So put your logo in front of TONS of people NOW!

Free SEO Reports from Free Seo Report Dot Com

Most mainstream people do not trust services that say they will rank them higher in Google for their “keywords”. They either have had personal experience dealing with a Search Engine Optimization expert who has ripped them off or have heard horror stories about how the person has even got them completely banned for doing shady practices.

Nothing like a double whammy of paying a company for a service that is supposed to increase your websites traffic but instead has you now banned getting zero traffic… YA… it happens…

But then where can you turn? Well I have a very small list of people I trust in the industry and recommend often to others but the fact of the matter is most people reading this blog simple can’t afford their services. Most don’t even know what SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is yet alone know how to do it.

We do not consider ourselves professional Search Engine Optimizers. I have stated this many times. However we have had some pretty big success with SEO. So when people come to us to try to hire us to do their SEO or come with SEO questions I tell them the same thing.

I am not going to tell you the way its supposed to be done. I am going to tell you where I have had success and what I know to be true from my experience.

Experience being the key word. In my opinion everything else is fluffy fluff (from my experience).

Many people who do SEO work talk in theory and rarely will talk about exact clients and what they did for them. They will usually say its due to some confidentially bullshit or NDA. Funny… Every reputable SEO company I know of has a plethora of clients with real examples.

But lets be more specific about you. While I can share with you what has worked for me, you could be in a completely different market. My advice to you from my experience in how I dominate in the ringtone vertical and make thousands of dollars a day off of sites I have not touched for 4+ years, most likely will not help you probably will not really help you if your in… say… the travel business, or teeth whitening, or whatever vertical other vertical.

So one day about 6 months ago I had a bit of an epiphany.

What if we created a free service that would do this for you?

A simple, easy to use service that would look at your site and the keyword you want to rank for, then look at ALL the top sites currently ranking for your keyword (for every search engine known to man), then tell you, from facts (not theory), exactly the difference between what they were doing and what you were doing?

What if then it would tell you exactly what you need to do based on factual, real life experience data what you need to do in order to be compeditive with them?

(you know whats coming right)

Well today I am happy to announce Free SEO Report. We teamed up with Latvia’s Best Programer to bring you what I feel is a truly excellent service that is 100% free to get your first report. Your first report is also a full report. Nothing crippled about it.

If you are excited to get going on it then give it a run here.

As we were letting a lot of SEO’s who actually have paying clients we asked them how we could improve it. The number one suggestion they had was that we allowed them to upload their own graphics and links so that they could present the reports to their own clients. So we did.
