February Firesale With WordPress Themes, Facebook Social Ads, Craigslist Guide & More…

BuyNowDeal.com has a new offer for February. This month they are offering 24 products with resell rights. All products come with either Master Resell Rights (MRR) or Private Label Rights (PLR). Just like last month’s offer they are increasing the price each week in February. The price is currently $17 but will go up $5 each remaining week in February.

  • Firesale Week 2 - 8th Feb - 14th Feb - $17
  • Firesale Week 3 - 15th Feb - 21st Feb - $22
  • Firesale Week 4 - 22nd Feb - 29th Feb - $27

There is an interesting combination of products on offer this month. Facebook Social Ads (with Master Resell Rights) is a guide to Facebook’s answer to Google Adwords PPC. It is being sold for $7 separately on the site and is worth every penny if you’re already using pay per click or intend to use it in the future.

There are also two packs of Adsense ready themes for WordPress blogs. 30 Adsense Ready Instant WordPress Themes (with MRR) and 50 Niche WordPress Blog Themes (with MRR). The first 30 themes come complete with Photoshop PSD files. The pack of 50 does not include PSD files but is still a good collection of WordPress themes. Both of these products is being sold separately on the site for $7 for the 30 themes with PSD files and $5 for the 50 themes without.

Craigslist Marketer Pro (with MRR) is a package consisting of a guide, video, speadsheet and list of popular cities. It is being sold for $10 separately on the site through the product mini-site. It’s surprising just how much traffic flows through Craigslist each day. The package shows you how to get started and how to avoid getting your posts flagged or deleted. It’s actually pretty useful, even if you don’t think Craigslist has much to offer your existing website. Give it a try and see the response you get! ;)

Fanpop - The Next Generation Of Fansite…

It’s tough to keep up with the world wide web when it keeps getting bigger and bigger each day. Wouldn’t it be great if someone organized the web into topics you care about?

Four guys in San Francisco thought so too and created Fanpop!

fanpop

Fanpop.com is a one-stop destination for real people with real passions to find real content and community.

Remember when the web was small enough that you could look at a directory of the best sites on the web for a certain area of interest? We miss those days. :(
Fanpop is the next generation of fansite created for the fans by the fans. It’s a one-stop destination for fans of anything and everything and the place to find fellow devoted fans.

Fanpop makes discovering and sharing content fun, easy and social.

Fanpop is essentially a network of user-generated fansites for different topics of interest created and maintained by the community of fans. There fandoms are called a “spot” because it’s a place where you can hang out and get to know other fans.

Every spot has a bunch of really cool features that empower the fans to share and discover content and interact with each other.

In all spots you can find the following features:

  • Videos - kinda like youtube
  • Links - social bookmarking
  • Picks - choose between A and B type polls
  • Forums - you know what a forum is right?
  • Headlines - news from around the web
  • Soapbox - an article type publishing system
  • Image Gallery - can you say flickr?
  • Fans - like friends just called fans

You really should go check it out for yourself… Fanpop.com

Lookout for a deluge of cloning projects at a freelancing site near you soon. ;)

Get Inside Digg With Digg Labs…

I think everyone reading this will know exactly what Digg is right? A very popular site combining social bookmarking, blogging and syndication. Unless you’ve been living on the dark side of the moon you’ve probably Dugg plenty of stories.

But what a lot of people aren’t aware of is something called Digg Labs!

digg-labs

So what exactly is Digg Labs?

The labs provide a broader (and deeper) view of Digg. A lot of stuff gets submitted to Digg every day, so good things can sometimes fly right past you. Labs projects look beneath the surface of the Digg community’s activities.

Stack

Digg Stack shows diggs occurring in real time on up to 100 stories at once. Diggers fall from above and stack up on popular stories. Brightly colored stories have more Diggs.

stack

Swarm

Digg Swarm draws a circle for stories as they’re dugg. Diggers swarm around stories, and make them grow. Brightly colored stories have more Diggs. This is my personal favourite!

digg-swarm

BigSpy

Digg BigSpy places stories at the top of the screen as they are dugg. As new stories are dugg, older stories move down the list. Bigger stories have more Diggs.

digg-big-spy

Arc

Digg Arc displays stories, topics, and containers wrapped around a sphere. Arcs trail people as they Digg stories across topics. Stories with more Diggs make thicker arcs.

digg-arc

Pics

Digg Pics is a relative newcomer to Digg Labs. It tracks the activity of images on the site. Images slide in from the left as people Digg and submit them. Pretty cool stuff if you ask me!

You can also download all of the above as screensavers and run them on your PC or Mac!

Check out… Digg Labs now! :)

How Much Is Mozilla & Firefox Actually Worth?

firefox-title

How much is Firefox worth, will it go public and when? The answers are a lot, almost definitely and probably this year or next.

Mozilla’s open source browser, Firefox has done what most people would have considered impossible in the past few years. It has managed to eat away at Microsoft’s domination of the browser market. When you think of the major advantages Microsoft has had in that it’s browser comes pre-installed on just about every new PC, this is even more of an achievement.

Firefox currently has more than a 15% share of the browser market. That equals approximately 100 million or more downloads. So just how much is Firefox worth?

According to the New York Times in May 2007, Firefox has generated more than $100 million in revenue over the past few years. It generated $6 million in 2004 and $52 million in 2005. If revenue continues to grow we could be looking at $100 million to $200 million per year. And that’s before it has really started trying to build a business.

Mozilla hasn’t made much effort yet to actually build a business. Their main revenue stream is derived from per browser carriage revenue for the little Google search box you see in the top right corner of your toolbar. This is equates to approximately $1 a download according to some estimates, so there is clearly a lot more money to be made.

Even if you allow $50 million a year for costs that still would leave Mozilla with annual profit of $50 million to $150 million.

So when will Mozilla/Firefox go public? Mozilla’s Mitchell Baker says “never!”. But why would the Mozilla Foundation not want several billion dollars worth of public company stock?

Let’s face it… an IPO is inevitable.

And here’s a thought… what if Mozilla bought Netscape from Time Warner and renamed the company Netscape Firefox! ;)
