Dean Hunt from Buzz Profits in the UK has had the rest of his life sponsored by Mark Joyner of ConstructZero.com for one million dollars.

I’ve heard of people getting sponsored temporary tattoos for companies at decent money, but this is ridiculous.

Dean will be required to wear some form of branded clothing with ConstructZero.com’s logo, website and slogan every time he goes out in public.

The question that is probably going through his mind is will he be able to still brand his infamous Killer Bunnies?

	My dad’s rich! Woo Hoo! Death to all humans!

Mark Joyner is allegedly the godfather of internet marketing and Dean is allegedly one of the world’s top buzz marketers like his infamous Bizarre Google Request.

So this seems like a match made in killer bunny heaven. Will be interesting to see if more money is earned from the “buzz” that will come out of this or the sponsorship itself through the years.

Do your links suck? Are they somewhat colored text or do they stand out from the rest of your text in your emails, blog posts and web pages?

Do they stand at attention and beckon your readers to click? Somewhere along the way of cascading style sheets, designers thought it would be cool to remove the underline in text links. Usability experts cried foul and rightly so.

People are trained to recognize clickable links that have an underline. I have actually tested this in emails, and underline always wins..

Lets say I want to promote the 4th annual Email Summit by MarketingSherpa. Which link stands out the most when promoting the Email Summit by MarketingSherpa?

Did you know that simply inserting a relevant graphic can not only increase your click-through rate but actually get more clicks than text alone? So wouldn’t it be logical to make your images stand out a little more rather than simply being eye candy? Believe it or not, but both images below have a border of 2.

I’ve included the video below to show you how to make your links and images stand out if your blog theme, crazy web designer or something else has caused your links to blend in a little too much.

Here is the code to add to your text links. The video shows you how to do it in detail.

<a href=”http://www.yourdomain.com” style=”text-decoration:underline;font-weight:bold;”>Your Text

Here is the code to make your clickable images stand out.

<img src=”http://www.yourdomain.com/someimage.gif” alt=”alt text” style=”padding:8px;border:1px;border-style:solid;border-color:#000000;” border=”2″>

I’m not a css jedi, so there are probably a ton more elegant ways to do it. But this is the simple copy and paste version.

Hope that helps. Subscribe to my blog below for more helpful videos.
