In Episode 044, Mark discusses three topics: the Corn Sheller affiliate site case study update, a practical guide to Google's new Disavow Tool, and his response to Pat Flynn's episode about what he wished he had known as a new business owner.<\/p>\n
Mark opens with a personal update about being up all night with his sick three-year-old daughter, then dives into three content segments.<\/p>\n
Corn Sheller Site:<\/strong> The case study site continues earning approximately $50 per month through the eBay Partner Network, with lifetime earnings exceeding $200. Mark plans to add YouTube video summaries and fresh content to push toward $100 per month.<\/p>\n Google Disavow Tool:<\/strong> Released in October 2012, the tool lets webmasters tell Google to ignore specific backlinks. Mark plays Matt Cutts audio explaining the tool and offers practical advice: first try to remove bad links manually, then use the disavow tool as a last resort for links you cannot get removed.<\/p>\n Response to Pat Flynn SPI 053:<\/strong> Inspired by Pat's episode about things he wished he had known, Mark shares his perspective as a part-time entrepreneur with a day job. His five lessons: embrace the competition, work from start to profit, match offers with buyers, stop buying things you were not looking for, and work on your business every day even when progress is small.<\/p>\n Mark recorded this in January 2013. The Google Disavow Tool still exists in Google Search Console but is rarely needed as algorithms now ignore most spammy links automatically. The five business lessons remain as relevant as ever for part-time entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n Listen to Late Night Internet Marketing on Apple Podcasts<\/a> or subscribe at latenightim.com\/internet-marketing-podcast\/<\/a>.<\/p>\nWhat's Changed Since This Episode<\/h2>\n
