What is this Joomvertising! ?
Joomvertising! an advertising network that fully supports Open Source and Joomla! A portion of every dollar made through the advertising network goes to the development of Open Source.
- Joomvertising pays publishers first and foremost – that is you!
- 70% of all advertising revenue goes directly to the publisher!
- Less than 10% of the advertising revenue goes to the Joomvertising! Ad network.
- The remainder? Is paid to developers of open source extensions which affiliate with the Joomvertising! network and to Joomla! itself – we want to keep Open Source alive!
For Publishers of content using Joomla! (The Open Source Content management system with over 10 million downloads and a very active developer and user community) the Joomvertising! Network offers the following features.
- Joomvertising! – Finds the advertisers
- Joomvertising! – Places the ads automatically

Joomvertising! initially will be offered for use through the number one comments component on the Joomla! extend directory or by logging onto the http://joomvertising.com website and registering as a publisher.
The Joomvertising! ad codes can be placed in any banner or user position through the standard Joomla! banner component. (See the support section on http://joomvertising.com for easy to understand videos showing exactly how to insert the code. – Expect launch late June, 2009)
For advertisers – Joomvertising! offers:
- Access to up to 10 million publishers using the Joomla! CMS!

Joomvertising is proud of supporting Open Source and for thank our users for understanding that without all of us making contributions to Open Source, the community will not thrive. Help the community while helping yourself by monetizing your site or offering your message – join Joomvertising! as an advertiser or publisher.
This strategic partnership between a US based website development and marketing company iBusinessLogic and the Germany based Open Source development company CompoJoom is just one example of the power of Open Source and the worldwide reach of Social networking. Mr. Pooler and Mr. Dimitrov met through one of the Joomla! groups on LinkedIn, a social and business networking site.
Without the world wide communication available today through services like LinkedIn connections such as this would not be possible. Finding like minded entrepreneurs with complimentary skills is always a challenge, the combination of iBusinessLogic’s Scott Pooler and CompoJooms Daniel Dimitrov should prove to be a strong management team for Joomvertising.com!
Keep an eye out for more information here or on Joomvertising.com soon, we expect a soft launch in late June 2009!

Domain Broker Solicitations – Buyer Beware – Trademarks Apply!
Internet Business and Internet Marketing, it all sounds so interesting and easy…
Get an idea, buy a domain name, build a website and the money flows…
Right? 
Maybe…
If the idea is right, the research is sound, the website is optimized and the effort is complete. Building an Internet business is no less difficult than starting a traditional brick and mortar retail or wholesale business.
Don’t let anyone tell you different!
Lets look at the second step most people take when entering the Internet business world – Buying a Domain Name.
Domain Names – How Much Are They Worth?
There is a large market revolving around the simple Internet domain name. A commodity usually purchased from a domain name registrar like Godaddy or Register.com for about $9.99 can, if the name is valuable, be resold for hundreds or even millions of dollars.
The following excerpt is from Wikipedia: In an excellent article describing Domain Names:
Domain aftermarket prices and trends
Domain name sales occurring in the aftermarket are frequently submitted to the DN journal. The sales are listed weekly and include the top aftermarket resellers which include but are not limited to Sedo, Traffic (auctions), Afternic, NameJet, Moniker and private sales.
To date, and according to Guinness World Records and MSNBC, the most expensive domain name sales on record as of 2004 were:
- Business.com for $7.5 million in December 1999
- AsSeenOnTv.com for $5.1 million in January 2000
- Altavista.com for $3.3 million in August 1998
- Wine.com for $2.9 million in September 1999
- CreditCards.com for $2.75 million in July 2004
- Autos.com for $2.2 million in December 1999
The week ending January 27, 2008, DNJournal reported that CNN, a cable news channel purchased iReport.com for $750,000. The high price for iReport.com, as in “I Report,” was because it was branded by CNN as CNN’s news crowdsourcing prior to the purchase of the domain name. Likewise, AltaVista was branded as a search engine prior to the high purchase price of the domain name.

Who is Jason Calacanis – Why Should You care?
Jason Calacanis – An Interesting look into the future of Social Media
Most people who are interested in the Internet and in how to make money from it today tend to zero in on how to promote one business or brand. Generally, the majority of questions involve “How do I get my website ranked higher in Google” or “Why should I be interested in Social Networks”?
From a purely local and specific perspective, these are both good questions (which will be addressed in later articles here on the Examiner) but for a real perception of the magnitude of the business that is the Internet, we all should study icons of the early days of the industry that is now called social media and follow these pathfinders leading our way into the future.
Jason Calacanis is both an icon and a pathfinder.
Brash, even harsh at times, many people revel in the idea of taking pot shots at Jason Calacanis the co-creator of Weblogs Inc. (Sold to AOL for 30 Million in 2005) and current CEO of Mahalo a people powered search engine. Jason Calacanis started as a Journalist publishing Silicon Alley Reporter, a 16 page New York based tech newsletter and later became a pioneering blogger long before anyone knew how popular and powerful blogs would become as a publishing platform. Born in 1970 Jason is a very young .com era success story and it would seem he is not close to resting on the successes of the past. Read the rest of this entry »
