AWeber?

Welcome back! I've just finished setting up a free trial promo that those masters of the autoresponder, AWeber are pushing on their site's affiliate page. They give you the code to create a small opt-in box that goes straight to them (it doesn't count towards you list) but they then promote themselves to whoever fills in the form which gives you a better chance at an affiliate sign-up.

And there should be plenty of takers as all internet marketers need an autoresponder and AWeber are the best in the business! If you haven't set one up yet, take a look at AWeber and see for yourself.

Now, having given them the benefit of a nice plug, I'm going to give them a bit of a rollicking.

I'm picky when it comes to code and as I've built what I belive is a damn nice site in The Honest Way and I've spent time and effort to ensure all my code is xhtml 1.0 compliant. So I don't really appreciate third party code messing it up with things like nested tables. Yep, for all their high profile in the online world, AWeber are still giving out prehistoric html code for their opt-in forms that contain nested tables, repeating <font> tags and other nasties. Ugh!

So I had to spend time modifying their code to work with a <div> tag using css to create the style. But it's worth it as it looks better and the w3c people prefer clean html/xhtml.

End of rant.

The Honest Way News

The "other" Honest Way Blog is coming along nicely with it's second post pinged to all and sundry yesterday. The Honest Way Forum is also enjoying a good start in life as we now have 20 members at the last count and I predict that number to double by the end of the week. So if you haven't registered yet, now's the time if you still want to get in early.

That's all for today. Thanks for dropping by and having a look at what's happening here.
