Just be careful which sponsor feeds are used. Some do not allow their promo content to be used inside a member area. Otherwise, great idea!

I have actually checked with most of the larger programs that have some of the best rss feeds majority of them are fine with...

I have actually been workin on a project for this, vert similsr and along the same lines

andbottom line is, if you send them enough sales most sponsor pograms will overlook tedious shit like that

I figured Jace or someone on Oprano would be on top of something like this. On some other boards where I've posted the probability you wouldn't believe the hostile bullshit some guys sling around. Jace, you 'got it' right off the bat. I've had to go through extensive explanations with others who just don't 'get it'.

All I'm talking is using the blog format for upselling but not just a banner or button in a members area, just give the surfer more to lead to the upsell. If you get rss feeds from your sponsors that have attractive content 'in addition to' the content you already add yourself you service the upsell procedure with more for the surfer and it's far less work.

This is a sound idea Greg. And Jace is the man to do it.

We experimented with this for gonzo.com and there are more benefits to it than you realize. I was looking at using it as a pseudo CMS.

If it was going to work I knew you or someone on this board had already done it.

I have no doubt it would work. I just got a better offer hahaa.

However. Since the experiment went so well its interesting you mention it as its part of something Ive been building for the past few weeks.
