			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://phantomlinkcloaker.com" target="_blank">Phantom Link Cloaker 2.0</a> launched 24 hours ago and boy is it going down well. Up until now there have been a few different ways to cloak your links.  Most either WAY too complicated for the average user, and the rest.. well, not effective whatsoever. So looks like Phantom Link Cloaker 2.0 is indeed the missing link!</p>
<p>We have seen a HUGE need with affiliate marketers who are looking for a way to not just get the up-front commissions, but also start building their own lists too&#8230; one of the main features of <a href="http://phantomlinkcloaker.com" target="_blank">Phantom Link Cloaker 2.0</a> lets you do that – by adding a lightbox (with any content you like) over ANY page.</p>
<p>This allows your commissions to be secure, while also letting you benefit from the advantage of being able to presell the product with a custom message, video, or add in an autoresponder code.</p>
<p>The software also allows you to use as many domains as you want and does away with the need to purchase additional licenses.  Our Installation Wizard makes it super easy to install the software, which you will only need to do once! And what’s even more exciting about this is that there are no recurring fees!</p>
<p>It not only protects your commissions by hiding your affiliate link from so-called commission thieves, its latest technology saves you valuable time while still giving you additional chances to earn.  The software has a neat way of detecting if your page is down and automatically sends visitors to a 404 error page that you customize yourself. It will also do the same for typos as well as cut and paste errors.  Either way, you get visitors to see what you are promoting. Promotions are never wasted!</p>
<p>Ensure higher conversions and corresponding income through the ability to add your own lead capture systems to affiliate links and building lists as you promote affiliate products. Make use of lightbox popups when you offer bonuses for your buyers.  Customize the popups by adding your own message.  You also get to generate links that will be given serious consideration and will give you higher chances to convert and make money.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To celebrate <a href="http://hitsconnect.com">HitsConnect.com</a> 5th Birthday in October 2009. I have added a great new feature as a birthday gift for you.</p>
<p><strong>Smart Filtering</strong></p>
<p>When smart filtering is enabled, the rotator will prevent pages from the current website in the address bar to viewed within the rotator. For example, this means that when your rotator is being used at dragonsurf.biz, any pages promoting dragonsurf.biz will not be shown in the rotator.</p>
<p>So to take advantage of this new new feature just login to your members area, select &#8220;My Rotators&#8221; and check the Smart Filtering Enabled checkbox and click &#8220;Update Filtering&#8221; for the rotators that you want to have this feature enabled for.</p>
<p><strong>Continued Upgrade Program</strong><br />
This was part of our Phase 2 of the system upgrade plans which are nearing completion so you can expect some new features, better performance and maybe a few surprises. </p>
<p>Keep watching over the coming weeks for details!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow doesn&#8217;t time fly when you&#8217;re having fun. <a href="http://hitsconnect.com">HitsConnect.com</a> the premier Ad tracking, banner tracking, full featured rotators and split testing system had its 5th Birthday in October 2009. Although I have been online for many years before. HitsConnect.com was the first website that I built from scratch and proud to see it still providing a great service after all these years.</p>
<p>HitsConnect.com is a fully independent service with over 10,000 members and tracking over a 1/4 million hits a day. We are not associated with any Traffic Exchange system or service and therefore provide an un-biased and professional service to its customers.</p>
<p>But I&#8217;m not resting on my laurels &#8211; phase 2 of our system upgrade plans are nearing completion and you can expect some new features, better performance and maybe a few surprises.</p>
<p>So thank you to all members of HitsConnect.com for making it the premier Ad tracking.</p>

But how do you know if it is really making you money? Especially if you run more than one ad at a time. If you run identical ads in different publications how do you know which ones are worth running again?</p>
<p>There is only one way to know. You must track your advertising, online or offline. Just ask any successful marketer, and one thing they will all tell you is that you must track your ads. <a href="http://hitsconnect.com">HitsConnect</a> lets you do just that.</p>
