Conquer The Net Blog

The reason I’m writing today is to let you know about a new giveaway site that specializes in graphics. If you have any web properties, chances are you are going to need some graphics.

This site has not just graphics, but opt-in and website templates, how-to ebooks and graphics-related software products. There are some genuinely valuable offerings here.

I suppose at this point I should point out that in the great majority of these cases of “value disconnect”, it is not done intentionally.

What I mean is, hundreds of new and intermediate-level marketers are releasing new products in any given month.

It’s their product (possibly their first), they have a lot of time, money and energy invested in it, and are therefore quite proud of it.

In short, they don’t really understand effective marketing.
