Holy shit has it really been a year?

52 fucking weeks of getting money, and getting paid?

A History On PPC.bz

PPC.bz was what this industry needed. An outlet to make fun of all the scammers and schiesters and stupid shit out there. Sure, there was Wickedfire where you could vent your frustrations, but a blog is something different.

333 Posts and about 2,500 comments later, PPC.bz keeps on dishing out the goods.

Everyone knows this blog was created for free Press Passes to conferences. And you know what, it worked. It worked for Ad:Tech and Affiliate Summit. I think the people in charge of the press passes don’t read the sites they’re giving passes to …

PPC.bz grew from the ground up as a huge joke. Everyone had an account, and everyone just posted dumb shit to stay entertained. We called PPC.bz the greatest affiliate blog ever. Then the lie stuck. Tell enough people that its the greatest blog ever and they soon believe it.

And after a few weeks and months, it caught on and people took notice, linked to it, talked about it, and busted a nut on it.

Out of the woodwork, people came to me to tell me how much they love PPC.bz. Really? You love a blog?! YOUR GAY! Anyway, PPC.bz has allowed me to make some good connections, because both industry posers (like me) and industry leaders (like me) randomly hit me up and tell me they enjoy this blog and wish it was a food so they could eat it daily for sustenance.

PPC.bz could be something bigger. It could be the “The Onion” of Affiliate Marketing, with daily posts and video interviews and all types of funny shit. But the problem is it takes a long time to write posts, and the motivation isn’t there on a blog that generates no revenue. Plus I don’t even do affiliate marketing.

But we still try. We try to dish out a post whenever we can that makes the masses laugh. OK, maybe it makes like six people laugh, but we don’t give a fuck.

From the Archives

Many people heard about PPC.bz only in recent months. That means they missed some good posts from the earlier days. The “archives,” if you will. And if you’re a long time reader, then you probably don’t remember some of these classics anyway.

Let’s remember how great PPC.bz is, by looking at some of our best posts:

The First Posts

There were a bunch of jibberish posts that made up the first few pages of content for PPC.bz. We deleted those because they were stupid. Next!

This post is possibly the funniest one ever written. Why? Because someone actually took this advice and created a website with “eh” all over it that was exposed on Wickedfire. I proceeded to piss myself. How I Made A Canadian SEO Empire & Retired Young.

A lot of posts on PPC.bz are youtube videos of the most gangster shit you could refresh your stats to.

Interviews with All-Stars

In a weird way, PPC.bz is partly responsible for creating the Ryan Eagle Legacy. Back in the day, everyone broke his balls (because everyone is a Nickycakes (<3) dickrider and Cakes had a field day with him). So I wrote this post that turned that around, and slowly but surely Ryan Eagle is one of the industry's top ballers today.

The Affiliate Rap Game

This is something that can be saved for another post. I’ve already wasted too much time this morning writing up this one, and to describe the Affiliate Marketing Rap Game from start to where it is today is going to take some serious commitment.

We’ll save it for later. Keep yourself entertained with the PPC.bz classics.

Stay thirsty, my friends.

Brothers from another mother?

I want to know how this happened. I wake up in the morning with a bunch of text messages, and it turns out I was signed up to a Mobile Horoscope offer.

The problem is, it happened overnight while I was sleeping, so it’s not like it was a friend playing a practical joke on me.

Ok, that’s fine. I’ve used made up numbers to test a mobile offer before. But how the fuck do I get signed up for the shit without the PIN?

If you need a backstory, engimabomb posted this Google Search Engineer parody. It wasn’t funny.

But this one is.

You’ll wake up with a sore ass.

The affiliate rap game is going mainstream, and PPC.bz is starting the revolution. Why rap about nerdcore when you can rap about making money online and smoking blunts at the same time?

Many challengers are coming out of the woodwork to step to PPC.bz. We needed an official name for the family, hence The Paper Clique was born (in about 23 seconds of thinking). So to separate the men from the boys, we had to get some official bling to represent The Paper Clique all-stars.

Dullspace came through in the clutch to provide some Donkey Rope chains at the PPC.bz / Nickycakes.com party.
