Hollywood, CA January 2011 ? Blue Blood's SpookyCash Nominated for XBiz Award

Blue Blood is pleased to let you all know that Blue Blood's SpookyCash affiliate program has been nominated for Specialty Affiliate Program of the Year in the 2011 XBiz Awards. SpookyCash is the official affiliate program for BlueBlood.com, Gothic Sluts, Erotic Fandom, Barely Evil, Rubber Dollies, Erotic BPM, Scar 13, and more alt membership sites.

Because of the Blue Blood team's love of new technology and strong publication background, SpookyCash was the first affiliate program to utilize a hosted blog and custom-coded affiliate RSS feed syndication in this market space. (XBiz was the first to understand how cool this was and the XBiz article about it is still linked from the syndication tools page in the SpookyCash webmaster area.) SpookyCash also still has the only fully hosted TGP of any of the nominees. SpookyCash, of course, has all the expected affiliate webmaster tools, including banners, hosted banner rotation, FHGs with webmaster preview thumbs and customizable delimited export options, POTDs with customizable thumb or image size, and all that good stuff.

SpookyCash and SpookyCash sites have received press everywhere from MTV, Spin, and Rolling Stone to Wired, XBiz Magazine, and Forbes.

SpookyCash Launches High-Tech Blog With Affiliate Coded RSS

By Kat Khan

HOLLYWOOD ? SpookyCash, Blue Blood?s B2B adult entertainment affiliate program, has launched SpookyBlog, a new hosted blog complete with writing, photography and RSS reference codes.

Blue Blood was founded by Amelia G. in 1992 as a counterculture lifestyle magazine showcasing gothic, punk and pre-Internet cyber-culture. The company later transitioned to the Internet, spawning a variety of entertainment sites in music, fashion and erotic media.

?Blue Blood has always been very involved in literary circles and has published many of the heavyhitters of genre fiction,? Amelia G. told XBiz. ?We've got some very experienced writers with huge credits blogging for SpookyBlog, and I expect we will rotate a variety of talented authors through in order to keep the voices fresh.?

SpookyBlog includes photos of the day, hosted free sites and a full hosted TGP. SpookyCash officials said site affiliates have been emailed the code for linking to the URL, as well as the specific SpookyBlog feed code. Affiliates now have the option of promoting SpookyCash with a simple text link or banners and also can receive the benefit of distributing their reference codes through RSS technology.

Additionally, if an Internet surfer who visits SpookyBlog through an affiliate link adds the blog's feed to a syndication reader, such as FeedDemon or NetNewsWire, the affiliate reference code is then preserved indefinitely within the surfer's feed reader. In short, affiliates are paid even for sites an Internet surfer joins via syndicated posts.

?I've actually received thank you notes from longtime affiliates for putting out such an innovative tool,? Amelia G. said. ?I'm honestly and gratefully stunned by how appreciative SpookyCash affiliates have been. I mean, we put out new hosted galleries all the time, but those just get traffic, no thank you notes.?

Company officials said affiliates can also use the new feed codes to incorporate SpookyBlog posts on individual blogs, as SpookyBlog?s automatic updates are designed to leave bloggers free to concentrate on traffic. A blogger also can create a feed using its affiliate feed code in many of the popular blogging services and then promote users, adding that affiliate coded feed to their regularly viewed aggregator friends pages.

?Being involved in writer circles and the blogging community, I think it just made sense for us to make a tool that would be helpful for people we know,? Amelia G. added. ?I predict that blogs are going to be very important in the adult space online, but they are not there yet in the way that they are in other arenas. I am very excited that SpookyCash is pushing the tech envelope on what adult webmasters can expect in their sales tools.?

Congrats Amelia. :) I love your program.

Thanks. That is the best thing I could hear on this. Well, except for that today is that day :winkwink:

Congrats on the nom

Thanks, Andrea :) We should really do some cross-promo. Hit me up some time 337070007

Congrats on the nomination Amelia:thumbsup

Long time fan :)

Congratsssssssss

Congrats Amelia!

SpookyCash Launches SpookyBlog
Posted Dec 13th, 2005 00:00 AM by Todd Lewis

Blue Blood?s SpookyCash has launched a hosted blog ? SpookyBlog ? with professional writing and photography that harnesses the power of Really Simple Syndication (RSS).

SpookyCash affiliates already have been emailed their personalized standard refcodes for linking to SpookyBlog and their specific SpookyBlog feed code. SpookyCash affiliates are given the option of promoting with a simple text link or banners, or affiliates can get the benefit of distributing their refcodes through RSS technology.

The high-end feed technology means that if a surfer visits SpookyBlog through an affiliate link and adds the blog?s feed to a syndication reader such as FeedDemon or Netnewswire, then the affiliate refcode is preserved forever in the surfer?s feed reader. That means affiliates even get paid for sites the surfer joins off syndicated posts years in the future. Bookmarks, of course, save the refcode too.

There are no leaks in the new SpookyBlog tool. Just like the SpookyCash hosted affiliate TGP SpookyTGP.com, every link carries the refcode forward and leads to a possible sale.

SpookyCash affiliates also can use the new feed codes to incorporate SpookyBlog posts in their own blogs. Automatic blog updates leave them free to concentrate on traffic. They even can create a feed using their affiliate feed code in many of the popular blogging services and then promote users adding that affiliate-coded feed to their regularly viewed aggregator ?friends? pages.

You too :)

Thanks JFK :)
