A few weeks ago i found an interesting post about “Anti marketing design“.

Anti marketing design are sites that use ugly designs, but manage to be very successful.

The example used was Plentyoffish.com, a site that makes more than $10000 each day with google adsense. According to the founder, Markus Frind , one of the main reasons of this success is exactly the ugly site design.

He evens gives examples of other ugly sites that are very successful such as myspace, craiglist, google.

Markus Frind says that sites with an ugly design tend to generate more revenue, build better brands, and are more fun to participate.

When i read this i thought to my self “what the hell!?”. But i must agree… I have stumbled with sites that in my opinion are very very ugly, but i was surprised with the amount of traffic they had, the amount of users, readers, rss subscribers, the money they made! Even the blog where i found this post had an ugly design and ranks 19,895 in alexa, and has more than 300 comments on that specific post.

Why do we tend to use ugly sites?

I can just give my opinion. I don’t like these kind of ugly sites. But there’s ugly, and there’s UGLY. myspace is UGLY, google is ugly, but extremely simple and effective. Web surfers like simplicity, effectiveness, quickness, and not to many information at the same time.

For me, ugly sites resumes only to a simple equation: ugly sites = less distractions

The users are not distracted by a “state of the art design” with great graphics, and can focus their attention into the content, in what the site really has to offer.

Think a little bit about this, and tell me what you think…

Some of the very successful bloggers that earn thousands of dollars each month, may some day, or already have done, some cosmetic surgery. The world we live in, is more and more turned to physical appearance, and everywhere we know someone that made some changes on their looks…

In my honest opinion, I only agree with these kind of interventions if the person doesn’t feel well in his/her “skin”, and wants to improve their self esteem.

If you leave in the USA, the options for cosmetic surgery are more than many. Lasky Clinic offers services in cosmetic surgery in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills. They have a board of skilled technicians specialized in this area. The Clinic has a wide variety of interventions that may suite your need. From breast augmentation, Botox, to face lifting, facial implants and rhinoplasty. IF you want to gather more information about these subjects just visit Lasky Clinic.

SnapBomb?!? Oh yeah. Another great source to make money online and create some buzz about your site.

At snapbomb you get paid to review offers from advertisers.

But you say: “what? another paid to blog site?”

And i say: Not just another paid to blog site. Snapbomb is another valid option to make some money online, but besides this there are some aspects i want to talk:

Snapbomb couldn’t be easier. Your blog will be accepted rapidly. The control panel is simple. Don’t be “scared” by the lack of options. You get all you need. No complications. Simple and direct, and a great looking site.

There are already some reviews waiting for you! (some competitors fail to do this).

sadly, Snapbomb doesn’t have a referral program, which is not a big surprise since only a few sites like this offer a referral program.

I have only recently joined them, but so far i liked what i have seen. Register now and grab a “piece of the cake”

I was reading the new posts from shylock and i saw that he made a post regarding the attempt of Microsoft to buy Yahoo.

The news say that Microsoft is offering $44.6 billion for Yahoo. This gives a price of $31 per share which is 62% more than the current stock price.

If this goes forward, microsoft will become the top rival for google in the ppc world.

Microsoft has the adcenter and the Aquantive company. All direct to the ppc networks.
