self-funding meditation portal
found a new web site about meditation, which attempts to be a portal of sorts to books and pithy summaries of the different traditions of meditation.
it’s also interesting that the site might be self-funding through the book referrals. each book link has an amazon affiliate referral in it. with enough revenue from those they could bid on a google ad word for meditation and create a simple business model around informational web sites that self-publicize. brilliant.
If you're new here, thanks for visiting! Please subscribe to my RSS feed and consider visiting my design-related blog and my meditation-related blog.

I got the link to this site about 5 minutes after a friend at work expressed sincere interest about learning how to meditateto me. Of course, I immediately offered to take her to Shambhala open house , but getting this link opened things up for me to offer her other options.
I have many doubts about the actual results of generating revenue through the Amazon Advantage program or Google’s competing Partnering program. Advantage seems fairly straight -forward but probably won’t bring in very much revenue over all. Google’s program (which I am participating in at Ten Speed) is pretty complicated and I’m wondering if the labor involved will be worth the participation. Really , it’s a big experiment in the power of networking and collaboration, so that’s exciting in and of itself. It’s pretty clear that as participation in the Google Partnering program rises, specific keyword affiliation choices would need to be optimized to create any impact or generate revenue.
