Tuelz Rebrander Webpage/More Info

You may rebrand up to 2 hard coded pages that will be permanently inserted into Updatez, but can't be removed by your Users.

Enter the URL of the pages you want to track, selct from the options and click "Add Page".

Note: Be careful about how often you want to check pages for updates. If you have a lot of Users, all banging away needlessly as someone's server, you're not doing anyone any good.

I suggest setting your time to no more than once every day, unless you both own the server and you have a very, very good reason to update your info more often.

You may use either jpeg of giff.

Use the following dimensions for best results:

VERSION 1 ONLY
145 width
100 height

Version 2 ONLY

Then, upload your custom graphic to any website.

Next, take the URL of your uploaded graphic and paste it into the Tuelz rebrander.

For example, if you named your graphic hammer.jpg and uploaded it to the "root" (main) folder on your website, your URL will look like this:

h ttp://YourWebSite.com/hammer.jpg

If you don't want to mess with a graphic, we've included a generic one you can use. If somehow the path has been deleted, just paste this into the box to use the default graphic:
/tuelzbox/static/rebrand.jpg

We do recommend using your own graphic and hosting it on your own site. This allows you to change your graphic at any time, for any number of reasons.

Tuelz has some original revenue streams.

By entering your SF ID, you can earn money for SF links appearing in the following places in Tuelz:

Fat Search Results - The top 8 results are displayed on each page of search results, meaning your highest paying links are diplayed on all SE results.

Newz Tuel
1. On category pages. If a user enters a new category, the name of that category will be the keywords used for the SF links displayed.

2. On the "More" or "pheed" page. The name of the pheed is used as the keywords for SF.

3. In the "Search Newz" results pages. The keywords used for the search determine the SF links.

Your End Users not only choose the content they want, they also target the ads to themselves.

This is a possible feature for the future, and isn't being used at the time of this post.

For now, enter your ClickBank nickname. If you don't have a ClickBank nickname, enter:
dombom

For example, a pheed from Daypop for "marketing" will create a keyword phrase of:

"daypop marketing". This isn't the optimal for making money and we're working on a fix. However, I do want to leave it for a while, as it makes for tracking via SF's affiliate panel a lot easier.

To enter RSS pheeds, first you need to know how to find them. For more on research and the basics of RSS, please visit our RSS forum:

Soft coded (Your users can delete these pheeds) - you can enter as many soft coded pheeds and categories as you want.

Note that your "Main Page" category can NOT be deleted.

Your goal is to create themes of content that appeals to specific "niches" or markets.

You want them to follow their favorite subjects, so you can follow up, and "capture" their search engine revenue by getting the to use FatSearch.

It is suggested that you really "think" about your categories.

Remember, you are also rebranding your SearchFeed links. You'll want to steer your Users as much as possible, so that your most profitable keywords are being used.

If possible, you'll want to chose keywords for your Users and not let them chose their own.

Users can add categories. You need to "get inside their heads" and "soft code" the categories you think your Users for this niche will want.

Also, set up some generic categories, such as "sports", "health", etc, to get some good keywords on their pages as "categories".

as for categories, you search for keywords, and poll your prospective users.

I made the change, am working on all those pages now...

I have all the mods in my ZZTuel folder. If I add the rebrander mod, it doesn't show in the tuelbox main page as an available tuel.

John

Disregard. I know I cycled Tuelz on and off several times before and the "tuelbox" page didn't show the rebrander. I just went through a soft "reset" on the PC and when I powered Tuelz up again, there it was.

So, evidently error on my part. All is well in TuelTown.

John

Or you could have just refreshed your browser...

I bought the Tuelz Rebrander a few weeks ago and everything seems to be working ok except that it doesn't seem to except my SearchFeed username. I think this is because it contains letters as well as numbers. I've asked if I can change my username but they won't let me, can you let me know what you suggest.
Very interesting products by the way.

Cheers

Looks like SF threw us a curveball...We'll need Kirill to take care of this...Email me with your receipt and I'll put you in touch with Kirill.

Thanks...

I had an end user send me this message.

=========

I am running Firefox 1.5 and I am getting this error:

Tuelz

Software Error

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Xi\tuelz\core\webs.py", line 178, in do_GET
AttributeError: SessionServer instance has no attribute 'web_initial_handler'

Looks like the file 'tuelzbox.mod' is missing.

Kirill

IE is a stated requirement.

I read that about IE. Just thought I would ask since Firefox was not popular when this came out.

And it works fine for me in Firefox.

Thanks

Kelvin

Tuelz 2.0 should be moere firefox friendly, but not at all sure of release date???

Eg. Rebrand Name 'Ford', categories 'Mustang', 'Thunderbird' 'Taurus' 'Jaguar' ...

When I replace that newz-mod with new rebranded newz-mod and run tuelz I still get the old version newz running with old categories and feeds; after stopping and starting the tuelz. So I can't use my zz tuelz with the new rebranded newz.

I suspect we might need a separate tuelz installation somewhere for each version of newz.

Don't replace Newz Tuel with the rebranded one.

Instead, after you've created a rebranded Tuel, exit the original Tuelz, then open tuelz.exe in the NEW folder created by the Rebrander.

Now you can move other Tuelz to this folder, however you will lose all previous settings and modifications to all other Tuelz, such as ZZ and Commentz projects, as all Tuelz use the same log.dat file to read preferences. This is necessary so if we give updates to Tuelz, your rebranding will remain after your Users upgrade.

Depending on how much work you've done with ZZ and Commentz projects, you can switch over....

Or is this something still being worked on?

Kelvin,

I'm not quite sure what you mean, but I wouldn't suggest mixing 1.0 and 2.0, although you can always make a copy/backup of your Tuelz folder and give it a try.

Though I missed something.

kelvin

Are you still planning an upgrade to the Tuelz rebrander.

kelvin

Hey Kelvin,

Yes, I hope to update the Rebrander, however I have a few projects I need to make priority first.

thanks

I already have the original rebrander, I am looking for the upgrade.

If I am correct the 2.++ version will be a lower or no cost.

kelvin

Kelvin,

I misunderstood your original post about upgrading....I thought you already had 2.0?

You should have been able to download Rebrander 2.0 using Upgradez.

If it didn't work for you, email me and I'll send you Rebrander 2.0 that way.

The only changes for the Rebrander 2.0 are the layout...But that is probably a good reason to upgrade.

Sorry for the confusion...

I finally got it.

If I remember, correctly, we were not able simply overwrite tuelz 1.0 with 2.0.

So we had to install 2.0 (as new), the new version did not have rebrand mod.

So, since u said it was ready, i went to an old install, grabbed the rebrand mod, copied it to the 2.0 directory, and then ran upgradez and it worked.

Thanks.

now, my problem is getting the first batch of users to reinstall.
If they have already started adding their own info, chances are they may not want to go through the trouble to upgrade.

Solution find new customers.

Kelvin

For your users to update, they just need to follow the directions on the Upgradez thread.

One difference between 1.0 and 2.0 I forgot to mention, is 2.0 includes Upgradez so all users can upgrade their Tuelz.

When they upgrade, their own info, as well as any of your rebranding, should remain, as this info isn't stored in the exe itself.

So, if I am reading this correctly, they need to make a backup and download upgradez.zip
