Who is Anthony?

anthonyHi and thanks for stopping by.

Working online has its up and downs and everything in between. How all this got started….Well back in the late 2004 I was introduced with Internet marketing by my brother Mike. Meanwhile, I was working already as a corporate graphics designer working on marketing materials and promotion. I had some skills with HTML and photoshop so I was a good transition into Internet marketing. Helping out with a few things here and there, I began to learn about affiliate marketing, digital products and SEO. I actually attended Yanik Silver Underground Seminar and Keith Baxter’s Cloaking Master Meet that year. (props to NothingHeldBack.com) After picking up a few key ideas and churning out Adsense sites (the Golden Days), the rest is history.

My Roots

Being Filipino, we enjoyed traveling to the Philippines. And with the success we’ve had in the US, we then decided to expand operations in the Philippines. We set up our first office early that year and doubled staff every six months. It was amazing to see systems in place and production workflow. WIth all the VA’s and assistants, we decided to ramp things up and produce our own digital product. As a result we opened up the PLR floodgates with PrivateLabelMonthly.com (The Gorilla of PLR content!) and sold out all 1000 slots within a few days.

Changing Tides of Online Marketing

It was great for quite sometime, but then the PLR market turned a corner and we decided to close PrivateLabelMonthly.com. It was an awesome experience and has leveraged our resources on to other fantastic projects. We began to shift our expertise of outsourcing, contextual advertising, content creation and syndication to ArticleIncome.com. This is a revenue sharing model that continues to grow everyday as new members join. With a diverse portfolio of domains in many niches, we continue to work and expand online. We still continue to sharpen our skills and staff to the latest shiny-silver widget and test test test. :-)

Today and the Future…

With CPA, PPC and new regulations of internet marketing by the FTC, I believe the learning never ceases and each day offers new opportunities. I’ve met some fantastic people along the way and hope to offer some help for those who have questions. We still operate in the Philippines with our team of VA’s and have been under the radar with offering a guide. In 2010, stay tuned for the “Insiders Guide to Outsourcing to the Philippines” as well as a job market site opening specifically to meet the needs of the internet marketing community worldwide. Some exciting things in store. It’s gonna be an awesome year!

So, find me on Twitter or Facebook… Don’t be shy. :-) and look forward in knowing you better.

Cheers,
