Last month, we introduced the topic of affiliate marketing and explained what it is, the potential benefits and pitfalls, and some statistics and predictions about the future of the marketing technique (spoiler alert: it’s bright). Hosting Tribunal says that the affiliate marketing sector is currently worth $12 billion, and growing rapidly, and that “well-crafted affiliate…

“The first of April is the day we remember what we are the other 364 days of the year.” – Mark Twain Leave it to Mark Twain to hit the nail on its foolish head when it comes to April Fools’ day (and by the way, that is the correct spelling. I looked it up.).…

Servers. Hosting. Maintenance. They’re words that have specific meanings in terms of technology and the internet, but the truth is that while a lot of us vaguely grok the concepts, we don’t really understand what they mean. Some of us, including Tree Ring Digital’s writer (full disclosure: that’s me) are more than a little embarrassed…

“I heard a bird sing in the dark of December. A magical thing. And sweet to remember. We are nearer to Spring than we were in September. I heard a bird sing in the dark of December.” ― Oliver Herford Hello Friends! We’ve been through a lot this year, haven’t we? This is the…

In January of this year, we posted a blog that blithely discussed 2020’s Top Digital Marketing Trends.
