		<description>I want one of those &quot;I&#039;m blogging this&quot; shirts... maybe I should join MarketLeverage, just kidding. But really I have yet to hear any reviews of their interior account manager, etc. How good are they really? </description>

		<description>Jonathan - 
You are right.  I agree that business is business and that you can promote anything that makes money. 
 
Since I manage a lead gen program quality is of utmost importance to me and my clients.  
  
When you believe in a product - or at least pretend to - you tend to have a passion for it and therefore create better content supporting that product.  All of that creates true value resulting in better quality and/or conversion rates whatever the case may be. 
 
We have too many pages created in 5 minutes or one day just to get some money in our hands &#8211; spam. 
Google is getting better and better at determining where the real value is and over time the passion for a product I am referring to will prove itself in search results.   
 
On the PPC side we might always have those PPC guys who recognize the money to be made via tons of clicks with just a few sales - small conversion rates on a massive scale can work very well.  We have to put up with this as spam for right now - hopefully those sites that are most useless and spammy will start to be weeded out at some point in the future.   
 
Affiliate marketing in its true form is true marketing resulting in sales - or leads - and therefore worth the commission paid. </description>

		<description>I have to disagree with Mark Olsen. He says you should truly believe in your product to market it. I don&#039;t think you have to believe in a product at all, you just have to believe that your campaign will make you money. I bet those people who market ringtones REALLY believe in their GREAT product of ringtones for $9.99/month. Seriously?  No, but they believe that product will produce money for them. This is business. </description>

		<description>Dave:  
 
I think you fail to realize that I was not talking about the quality of their service at all. :) I was talking about their marketing strategy, which is quite good. 
 
Thanks :) </description>
