I recently had a visitor to my office who has a very exciting product to launch. I asked him what his URI was, he said the address, it ended with com as in telecom, so I typed it in with one M, as you might.  Ah , horror of horrors it was not his, the URI he had registered and was using, ended with two Ms. Needless to say, before our meeting was over we checked all variants of his domain and spent money with the registrar accordingly.

My advice only, you don’t have to take it.

So, it should be no surprise to read here about Wine and Affiliate Marketing in the same entry.

Let me explain, It’s no secret that I have often registered domains without any real idea what to do with them. That way www.mywinelist.co.uk came to be and for many moons it simply pointed to www.shops-mart.co.uk’s food and drink section.  I’ve now added a category for Wine and Vineyards, to which I will add links to the Vineyards that supply wines that I enjoy and, where I can, links to places to purchase the featured wines—this will be fun for me.

The above will be all the more enjoyable, if I can find decent wine suppliers with their own affiliate program in place, then a few pennies will come our way every time our link is employed in a sale. If these wine suppliers don’t have an affiliate program in place, I should be able to point them (or anyone else) in the direction of reputable program facilitators.
