nullHello everyone, and welcome to 2009!

I know I have already made a post or two in January but I haven’t actually said hello or happy new year…

Well the name of this post is actually quite serious and something I have needed to address for some time. Well good ol Joe over at ImWithJoe.com reviewed my blog from the contest I took part in over at SuzanneFranco.com.

Joe always puts his own twist on things and he did that with the review of my blog as well (gotta love him though, he is totally original). Anyways here is the post if you want to see the video or whatever.

Well in the video he asked what the name Infected By Bugs means since it really has nothing to do with Internet Marketing or anything of that nature.

Well Joe, the problem is simple. When I started blogging just over 1 year ago I had no idea what to do nor what was actually important, so I picked a domain name that I could easily remember and probably never forget. At the time I did not know I was going to start an internet marketing blog but the name stuck and it has become one of the quickest growing and most useful internet marketing blogs out their.

I am no Tyler Cruz or John Chow but maybe someday I could hit 1,000 + subscribers who in turn help me make money by brining in continued banner renewals like my pals over at NetKilx!

My goal has always been and always will be until I reach it to make $500/mo with this blog off various advertising options. Heck when I first started most people told me I was dreaming if I would ever make it in the MMO niche, all those guys are probably shocked to know that I have over 600 daily rss readers and am already making about $200/mo off this blog alone (soon to go up I’m sure).

Anyways sorry to get off topic but I just felt I needed to say it!

So yeah Joe, your right. The name has nothing to do with Internet Marketing but honestly since you first heard the name Infected By Bugs have you forgotten about it? I think not and I believe its the same for many people. I mean seriously bro what the heck does Google mean?

Well that’s all I had to say today but hit me with some comments below and lets see what you think of my name!

  1. Work From Home Says:

    This made me think about the question, “What’s in a name?”

    A name could be mean something completely different from one person to the next. I have to admit, when I first saw the name of your blog, I thought the exact same thing! It’s very catchy to say the least, and one to be remembered. There is a lot of great value here too. I will be visiting often.

    Thanks,

    Alan Mater

  2. Shannon Lilly Says:

    Glad to hear it Alan!

  4. Alex Says:

    lol you dont know how google got its name? they chose it because there is some number called a googleplex and its like 10000000000 or something huge. that was their goal of how many pages to index when they started.

  5. Ecommerce Blog Says:

    I figured you originally intended to start it as a report of software bugs! Probably in some kind of niche, like VB or Wordpress or whatever….and then decided it would be more profitable for marketing.

    Guess not :)

  6. Miva Modules Says:

    Alex – The number is called a “googol” and is 1 followed by 100 zeros. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googol is a good overview and mentions the Google connection.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googolplex describes a googolplex, which is much bigger.

    Googleplex is the name of Google’s HQ – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googleplex (with a cool pic I’ve never seen before)

  7. Monty - Sensonize.com Says:

    Buy infectedbybucks.com :P Its better and suits the niche.. Cheers ! :D

  8. Alex | Blogussion.com Says:

    I have been wondering what the name meant for a while now, glad you finally addressed this.

    The thing is though, it makes this blog kind of stand out from other blogs in the niche. Usually I see a ton of domains with “xxxmoney.com” or something like that.

  9. Suzanne Franco Says:

    LOL … just keep doing what you’re doing! I enjoyed Joe’s review and I have a “To Do” list that now includes to take a look at my static pages. Those pages were usually put there when we first started and once we get busy blogging we forget that many new comers to our blogs will check them out and they’re important. As for the name … I’ve never forgotten it ;) *huGs* Suzanne

    P.S. When people ask the name of my domain and I say it’s my name, Suzanne Franco dot com, they raise an eyebrow … they think they’ll see me naked or something! LOL

  10. Timon Weller Says:

    I like the name too, it is easy to remember which is important online… :)

  11. Donny Gamble Says:

    Every time that I visit your blog, I think how did you come up with that domain name. Now I know how you came up with the name. Most marketers would have changed their name once they decided what their focus was to blog about. I’m glad to see that you stayed with your name since day one.

  12. jeff paul internet millions Says:

  19. how to make money Says:

    your blog is interesting.how about a link exchange with my blog http://www.dfunda.com?

  20. Martin Says:

    Professional internet marketing companies take publicity beyond e mails and blogs. They can offer search engine optimization, which includes you paying for keywords that are linked to your site. Each time someone uses one of these keywords, it can create a hit to your online business.

  21. Dave Says:

    I have to admit that it is a pretty catchy domain name and unlikely that it will be easily forgotten.

  31. miva merchant Says:

    It’s fun to go back to Shakespeare’s thoughts on “what’s in a name… that which we call a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet”.

    Names truly land the best first impression, that is, if the picture doesn’t come first

    Please be aware my recommendations will be my personal favorites Classic Cardy and not necessarily your only options.
    My first recommendation and one I’ve mentioned in several classic ugg

    tall is a freeware utility forugg tall boots.

    The reason it’s my first recommendation is if you’re going to download and install an application I mention, or for that matter Ugg Amelie Suede, should you decide it’s not for you I want

    you to be able to do a complete, in-depth uninstall.
    Revo will access your Windows uninstall UGG bailey button

    boots utility to perform a normal Windows uninstall. But once Womens ugg Sundance II has completed the uninstall, Revo will assume command and with your Ultra Short, folders and registry keys that often remain on

    your ugg mini boots.

    Although Revo’s most important feature is its after deletion housecleaning, it has among its many other UGG bailey bootton boots one that you shouldn’t be

    without.

  48. Miva Merchant Says:

    Hey, your name is excellent. In the web world, an “easy” to remember name is big, but an “unforgettable” name is even bigger. I’ve run by your blog a handful of times, and know right away ever time I see the domain that this is your brand.

    I do prefer “Infected By Devils” as that was an awsome line from a GZA song back in the day, “his brain was infected by devils…”.

  49. Cerita Dewasa Says:
