Apple iPhone - What does a laser pointer look like when shined into the camera lenz

photons photo graphedlight beamlaser beam light pictures

laser beam photographedlazer beamcamera testing

The pictures above were photographed with the Applie iPhone 3G. We shined a laser beam directly into the digital camera lens on the iPhone - what we photographed was short of spectacular. We shined the laser into the phone in an average lit living-room.

The iPhone has a few applications that let you explore the universe, earth, and other large scale zoom in and zoom out applications. The magnifying glass software hardware/software on the iPhone is very cool and extremely advanced for our times (year 2008). With the pictures above you can do the same thing and it almost seems as if you are exploring a universe of photons. Test it out and amaze yourself.

Learn about how crappy Google’s Android TMobile cell phone is.

Agressive SEO Marketing - Google is the terrain, the weather, the distance, the time, and more in modern day SEO war

Friday, November 14th, 2008

Missing Attachment

Google is impartial - at least that’s what they want us to think: “Do Not Be Evil“.  Yeah right.  Google made it into a proper noun.  Google IS the Internet and a company that you need to be using in order to generate tens of millions of more dollars in the next few years.  Both on an SEO front and a Google Adwords front - those two battle grounds have merged.  Some corporations will engage in SEO warfare and some will not.  As R L Ermy says, “They will be dead Marines.”

Military combat soldiers are taught everything they need to know on how to kill their enemy completely.  Soldiers learn how to put bullets through enemy eyes at 500 yards.  How to throw grenades into enemy bunkers.  Their taught on how to kill an enemy with a bayonet.  Their taught how to navigate with compasses, maps, radios, by the damn stars!  Combat soldiers are taught to be fearless in the face of death - they are taught to become ultra focused warriors (there is no TV or internet on the battle front): never thinking, never flinching, cespools of hormonal rage and anger.  Destroyers of souls and reapers of chaos.  That is the truth about battle and winning - life or death.

Search Engine Optimization is basically the same thing - duh, you didn’t know that!?  Of course not, because your not a killer - your not engaging in modern day SEO warfare.  Only a few genius corporations and mid level size corporations are taking on the big boys.  If your corporation is not engaging in Google SEO warfare through Indian soldiers working for $1 an hour - you will lose.  Chinese and Indian SEO slave labor is no laughing matter - they are your soldiers carrying out a battle for you.  You are giving them work and a chance of life - instead of a textile mill for .10 a day.  Banner Blindness employs over 66 fully staffed Indian SEO experts in over 3 different Indian cities.  These are our soldiers fighting an SEO battle for our clients.  Were proud of them.  Let Banner Blindness help you engage in Nuclear warfare SEO against your enemies.

Please contact us via email at Support@BannerBlindness.com or call 312-281-8931.  We look forward to speaking to you about SEO warfare in 2009 and beyond.

Subway 911 Call in Florida reflects Subway’s terrible food

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

Missing Attachment

subway

The man above called 911 after getting pissed off about Subway’s terrible food and customer service.  Can you honestly blame the guy?  He is most likely a tax paying citizen and has every right to call 911.  After listening to his 911 calls it took local police almost an hour to get there.  I find it annoying that this story has made national headlines and the media is chastizing this man.  He was simply trying to get what he paid for.  He is probably poor and hungry - do we have no compassion for the needy in this country?  He was even polite to the 911 employees.  This customer was ripped off by Subway (as thousands of American’s every day are) because the owner/operators rip you off by giving you very little meat and condiments.  I say kudos to this man for having the balls to call the police on Subway.  Because Subway really sucks.  Leave your comments on whether or not you like Subway.  You can read more about this consumer grievence on The Smoking Gun.

CPM advertising vs. CPC advertising - Do your company a favor and STOP cpm ad buys.

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Missing Attachment

If your company is still advertising on major display advertising networks such as Specific Media, 24/7 Real Media, CPX Interactive, Double Click, adGardner, etc….? STOP and re-negotiate your rates or STOP advertising on these networks all together. It is costing you an arm and a leg for shitty results. Yes, that’s right, shitty results. You may be featured on some of the most prominent websites, but you are also paying an arm and a leg and your banners are “blind” to the audience you are trying to reach. Only two out of ten impressions actually “see” your banner and out of that 20% only 1/10 will click on your ad, resulting in a CTR of around .02%. That’s pathetic, we regularly get 1%+ CTR with the banners and placement we create. But wait, there is a better way: Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, and Adsonar (AOL). Dump your CPM buys and buy CPC - you will actually get traffic.BannerBlindness.com regularly delivers hundreds of thousands of unique visitors to major portals looking to grow their subscriber base. Why would you want to pay for an impression when you can actually pay for a visitor. We can help - yes this is a shameless plug post promoting our services. We recently helped BuddyTV.com generate tens of thousands of new users. They are in a battle with TV.com for online market share of “online television social-networking”. This is the bread and butter way for major television networks to attract viewers for prime time television shows.

CPC advertising on a display network is cheaper and far more effective than purchasing hundreds of thousands of dollars of CPM buys throughout the year. Again: why would you pay for an impression when you can pay for an actual visitor. So you might be saying, and this is a common statement; “Well it’s worth it to pay for CPM advertising when your banners are very targeted” or “We have such a large marketing budget that we can’t achieve our goals through a cpc buy”. WRONG. I don’t have the time to conduct an actual statistical investigation into how much more effective cpc advertising is vs. cpm advertising - but I can assure you, that the observations and actual experience that my 10 years of online advertising experience disprove any notion that CPM advertising is EVER more effective then cpc advertising. Companies like Blue Lithium, Right Media, Advertising.com, etc… were founded on a performance based model; but quickly warped into CPM advertising as they saw an incredible opportunity to rip off major corporations through HUGE CPM buys. What the hell does a 60 year old marketing manager know about CPM buys? NOTHING.

The major online display advertising networks have been milking major corporations with major advertising budgets for years. I was discussing with an associate of mine recently, that even though major corporations like Budweiser, Ford, GM, Toyota, etc… may be losing out big on CPM advertising; it’s still probably yielding better results then traditional media buys (magazines, television, radio). So they may be getting ripped off, but at least it’s not as bad as it could be. But it’s time to get smart, and it’s time to get lean — corporations! Stop throwing your share holder money down the CPM toilet, and start paying for actual visitors not just impressions!

Contact Banner Blindness if you are interested in making a major dent in your daily and monthly uniques. We have helped clients double their daily traffic numbers, and achieve metrics such as: registrations, newsletter sign-ups, purchases, recurring visitors, landing page optimization, etc… We can very affordably and quickly send you hundreds of thousands of unique visitors through large CPC buys using all the major advertising networks. Additionally, if you are a publisher (as many of our clients are) you will be arbitraging your purchase with us, as you will make it up on the number of impressions you can serve based on the number of unique visitors we deliver. Remeber, only pay for for unique visitors - NEVER just impressions.

Yahoo contextual advertising solutions way behind Google in 2008

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

Missing Attachment

One of Yahoo’s greatest competitive weaknesses, in comparison to Google, is their contextual advertising platform - though they are still ahead of Microsoft.  AdSense (Google’s contextual advertising system) is hand’s down the most powerful contextual advertising system on the Internet.  With Google’s recent acquisition of Double Click they can now utilize the AdSense contextual network to display CPM priced banners - enhancing their CPM advertising distribution to an unbelievable amount.  Google is the worlds largest display advertising company - bigger than Specific Media, 24/7 Real Media, Platform A (AOL), and any other competitors.  Google has been slowly rolling out their display advertising efforts through the AdSense contextual network.  On this website, as well as other online properties that we own, we have seen these ads and they pay very little.  So we have been forced to turn off image advertisements, and only show text display ads; as CPM payout is worthless.  Back to Yahoo contextual network, it sucks, oh I already mentioned that.  I’m sure many of you have seen these ads before:

yahoo.jpg

yahoo-1.jpg

They are a perfect example of Yahoo’s terrible contextual network.  There is no revenue optimization system in place - which is clearly evident otherwise Yahoo would be constantly rotating competing ads in order to determine the highest revenue per click advertisements.  I’m certain that the advertisers shown above have a contract with Yahoo for a static price per click, and in return they get premium placement - but this is to the detriment of Yahoo and Yahoo shareholders.  Wake up Yahoo, there is no shame in duplicating Google’s contextual network; what are you waiting for?

Savy online marketers using Skins to break through Banner Blindness

Thursday, February 7th, 2008

Missing Attachment

Savy online marketers are realizing that paying for skins on highly trafficked sites is one of the best ways to break through Banner Blindness. PerezHilton.com was featuring a skin by NBC’s new television show Lipstick Jungle (looks like another Sex In The City Show). Below is another website (CollegeHumor.com - owned by IACI) that regularly features skins, but I was unable to capture an example.

perez hilton nakedcollege humorSo how can custom skins break through banner blindness and help your business achieve dramatic online marketing results:

  • Make sure the price of the skin is a low priced CPM, don’t just pay to have it up there for a week. Make sure you are being billed anywhere from .05 - .25 cents per CPM. Of course, this rate will vary with the website and whether or not it corresponds with the topic of what you are advertising. For the Perez Hilton example above, I’m sure NBC had to pay a pretty penny to get the customized skin - but the skin correlates with the targeted user demographic that Perez Hilton attracts.
  • Skins should have a strong call to action
  • Skins should feature something shocking or attention getting
  • Skins rarely involve direct response marketing - most of the examples I have seen have been for new television shows
  • Skins should practice the principle: Less is more
  • If you are advertising a site, be sure to use analytics and track how many type-ins or clicks you generated

If you are interested in having a Skin developed to use on a highly trafficked site - please contact Banner Blindness to see examples of skins we have designed in the past and how they might enhance your online marketing strategy.
