Default Thanks mystic

Thank you Mystic for the info, I will definitely check the links out. If I can get something up and running, I don't mind waiting 3-6 months to see some results. I guess I just want to make sure that I'm doing it right so that i'm not spinning my wheels for 6 months with nothing coming in. Like I said $300-500 month would be great. Is that a reasonable goal? I see so many ads for ebooks and other membership sites (Submission Magic), that say you can make $7,000 in 2 weeks. And I'm the type , "If it sounds to good to be true...". Mystic, thanks again for your help.

no problem cmac100. Once you have your site up put a link to it on your signature line when posting on forums that gets links to your site as well and helps your seo a little.

My experience:

You do much work for the merchants and somtimes get broken links in return (reduced value for your brand). The best one is in my opionion:
https://www.cj.com/index.jsp

1. Encrypted links.
2. Smart zones (rotating banners).
3. Excellent reporting (eg. on broken links not
generating traffic.)
4. Very stable site. 100 % up time.

But they pay by checque. The checque were not accepted by the bank, here in Norway. It is not a Norwegian bank. Why not direct electronic payment to my account in 2005? Is there any security problems?

So most of the affiliate proveders out there are for the US, Canada and UK.

And it is very much about generating traffic to your site. This W3Schools Online Web Tutorials site developed / driven by a family in Norway gives free education and certification. The site is driven by ad and generates less than a million USD with more than 30 million visitors / month.

Now I am looking for financial institutions / banks / fund managers to brand their logo on my site. I think that is better. I may also try a PayPal donation, but prefer doing business.

A company operating in Norway with heavy traffic takes nearly USD 7000 / 24 hours for a dominating logo. So for sites with heavy traffic this is big business.

Never have som many alliliates done som much for so many companies in return for so little.

It may take years. You eat a Big Mach in the same way as an elephant, bite by bite.

Default Is Site Build! good?

Thanks Kgun, and Mystic for you info.
Sometimes it seems overwhelming. How long have you guys been doing affiliate marketing? Is it making you some decent money? I have heard alot about SiteBuild!(Ken Evoy) have you guys heard of it and is it legit? Any ideas on some inexpensive hosting? My whole problem is that I don't have $200 a month to host, market, SEO, a site that will take 6 months to break even. Budget is definitely an issue. Any low cost suggestions would be very helpful. Thank again for your help.

np cmac! btw where did you hear that it costs $200 to host a site? hosting usually costs about 5 bucks per month, that's pretty much your only cost. seo you can do by hand don't pay ppl to do it for u. Read about google page ranks etc. and you'll know that its all about gettng links to your site just visit the link i gave you b4 with a bunch of directories to list in that will get your page ranked almost for sure. so the only cost u'll have to have a website is $5 but it is very time consuming for seo. I'm going ot start making my own site selling stuff using drop shipping with my cousin if you'd like to find some good dropshippers u can use my wholesale directory at www.wholesalespotter.com to find a good one and also make sure there a good one research abou them and talk to them.

Default Good info

Thanks Mystic.
The $200 I was talking about was to include hosting, ezine marketing, PPC campaign, maybe paying for SEO, and website dev. Like I said, I am on a limited budget and didn't know the cost to get started, but you have enlightened me,Thnx. I here SiteBuiltIt(Ken Evoy) is a good start. Have you heard of him? With the dropshipping idea, Is opening a yahoo store, or ebay store good way to go? Thanks in advance for any and all help. Are there any other good forums to get some help?

I would stay away from sitesell and James Marshal's strategy. The recent shakeups in Google and Yahoo have pretty much wiped out all those type of sites. In fact Marshal's sites have been banned from Google alltogether. Sitesell sites also leave a footprint that Google and Yahoo have adjusted their algorithms for. The search engines have no interest in anyone gaming their results, even if the content is relevant and it's explicitly a violation of both of their publisher guidelines to say "we can get you to the top of the results" and charge for it. As well, anything on sitesell's hosting network has been blackholed by the many SPAM listing services because they deem all the email generated by them SPAM rather than real email. If you have signed up for sitesell, you can expect an email a day pushing some form of addon or affiliate link from ken envoy.

The best strategy today is build web pages with an editor, not some form of SEO optimized service that leaves a footprint, do basic SEO, get decent incoming links (avoid directories unless it's yahoo or dmoz). Make sure the incoming links have different titles so it looks natural. Add content daily. Make sure it's original and relevent. While your waiting to be indexed and to start climbing the ladder, use SEM/PPC via Adwords or Yahoo (avoid 2nd level PPC companies, it's mainly fake traffic). It will not happen overnight but if you are patient, you sure can make a good living.

Nov 2, 2005

If a person were to endeavor to try their first online affiliate/dropshipping business, and the person knows what they want to sell:

1. What is the most proper way to ask a business like; for example, a manufacturer of deer hunting guns, if they are willing to provide the datafeed thing that seems to be necessary?

2. Are there "canned" programs available that one can use to receive the datafeed?

3. Is it even possible to operate an online affiliate/dropshipping business wherein the billing AND the shipping are performed by the manufacturer/company whose products you are selling?

4. Having already obained a domain name, a hosting service, a website (simple XHTML and CSS, no programming like PHP), and some very basic knowledge of SEO, what exactly are the additional mechanics needed?

After doing this for about 3 months i got discouraged and went to mlm and learnt how to build a mediocre website and took a crack at the "send $5 to these 5 people on the list" thing which was a total waste of time and energy. Im back to square one basically with Affiliate Marketing but i want to learn how to do it right instead of just jumping in. If anybody out there can make any suggestions to what programs are legit and have good payment plans please let me know. I am soooo willing to learn this industry and invest alot of my time into this. If i could eat, sleep, and breath this stuff i would but it gets discouraging when you try something and it doesnt work no matter how hard you work at it. So if anyone can tell me how they first got started i would be happy. Im not looking for hand-outs, i expect to pay my dues.
V/R
Chris


Guess enough time has passed since your original post that I can ask this:

What program/s did you decide on?
How pleased are you with the results of your efforts?
Do you think you'll eventually be able to leave your day job?

It would be interesting to hear the answers before I add my 2 cents...

Good amount of quality info in this thread. Learned a lot on what makes a good affiliate program.
Will have to see what adjustments need to be made to our own program, since we do not have too many active affiliates yet.

Default thank you linda

thank you linda for not only answering the first of the critical questions but your support through out this thread, which i have just spent an hour reading.
it has been fascinating.
although i am not associated with any affiliate marketing, i would still like to make a late addition:
in my country (india), huge population and less internet dependency, it is easier to sell web affiliate products as your own for a subsidised profit. for eg: the mumbai mirror, the mumbai middday etc have been carrying ads about clickbank products, herbalife, other high selling internet brands, dish tv etc. the math is also positive as you one not only gets buyer as well as develops a locally selling network .
i know it might be applicable to the developed nations , but hope some body profits.

Sorry, just making a silly reference to your goof of saying "tread," which is what tires have (the depth of their grooves is called their tread) rather than thread (same word as used in sewing, "my thread is too short). A simple missing "h" makes all the difference in English.

It's so fun to read the words of non-native English speakers because they are so good at getting across their meaning, even with goofups on occasions, and most Americans can't say more than two words in another language.

This is a great thread though, so point well taken. Sometimes it is so worth simply reading through an entire thread to see what's been said before and learn something. The bottom line with affiliate marketing is if you have a website that has a niche, and you find an affiliate product or products that serve that niche, then you have a winning combination. Traffic plus products = sales.

If you just want to pull something out of a hat and sell it, you'll have a bit more trouble. Far better to find something you actually like or have an interest in. Something weird or off the beaten path perhaps? Something very few others are addressing? Find your niche, then you'll find liquid gold in affiliate marketing.

Default It is January 2006, where do we stand?

1. BannerAd.
Is it out, or are there new forms?

2. Niche and regional programs.
Are there more specialized programs? What about providers / merchants from other parts of the world?

3. Contextual / targeted sites.
How can we make the programs more relevant to content on the pages?

4. Dynamic content, Text, Pictures, Audio, Video, PodCasts.
Delivered via Rss (XML).

5. Syndicated mini sites.
eBay, Yahoo store etc. Make them yourself or code that can be copied and pasted into your site?

6. Integration with other marketing tools.
Articles, eZines, messageboards, SEM, SEO, LinkAd and affiliate marketing. New trends?

7. Digital branding and digital Ad.
Use and misuse of affiliates. What is good PR?

8. Tools / software.
New tools for tracking, avoiding affiliate link hijacking, avoiding URL blocking by antivirus programs etc.

9. Other tools.
Like
http://www.articlebot.com/
http://www.the-article-system.com/
http://affiliate-blogs.5staraffiliat...-msn-shopping/
http://www.thediscountebookstore.com/cbsearch.htm

10. The future of digital marketing.
PPC, Affiliates, referrals, joint ventures, partnership etc.

11. Traditional marketing versus marketing on the internet.
Competitive or complementary channels? Any tendency that marekting on the internet is increasing its share faster than expected. Any figures?

Default Money Making Opportunities Exposed

There are thousands of Internet business opportunities that guarantee you a massive income. You might have come across many scams. You should always do a little research regarding the business before purchasing any products from them. A simple method I use is to simply type in the name of the program in google search along with the keyword scam. In this way you can see any related scam reports if there are any present.

Through my search for a home based business I came across many types of money earning opportunities. Some required having an inventory i.e. buying the stock where as some didn�t.

These are the most common types of opportunities I've came across:

1. Data entry/creating advertisements
2. Filling in questioners/ giving own opinions
3. Sending envelopes
4. Collecting catalogues
5. Buying products at wholesale price and selling them at retail price
6. And many more the list goes on.

I've now came across affiliate programs. I was surprised how much money people were making through affiliate programs. Again there are hundreds of affiliate programs out there. The question is �Which one should you choose?�


If you click the link below you can review the top 3 opportunities that actually work from day one. You really need to check this website out.

Does someone have an eBook that describes the steps around SEO, and a recurring product line to sustain residual income? It is just the thing I need.

Hmmm I had forgotten about this forum I have been building a pretty good site based on what I got here and on some other forums (I will admit that this wasn't the most helpfull of them but at least it pointed me in the correct direction) Anyway since then I have started up with CJ and SAS I like CJ for its many LARGE companies and the information I can get to see what happened on my site every day I am not too happy about the new LMI. I like SAS for its MAKE a PAGE feature and the HELPFULL Affiliate Managers who are willing to help out Newbies

Default Secrets to success in affiliate marketing

Hello:

There are a few secrets to success in affiliate marketing.

(1) Ability to locate products and services in hot demand by millions of people.

(2) Ability to reach these millions of people

(3) Ability to communicate with them properly

(4) knowing the most reasonable price to charge
Most affiliates who fail are unable to meet one or more of these rules.

If you are serious and desire to succeed in affiliate marketing, you need to get my free ebook called "Pragamatic Marketing" which has revealed all these secrets and how to use them.

There is another book which I will refer you to, written by a 26 yr old little know marketer who made $100,000,000 in 2 yrs.

This book is like the "Bible" of marketing, and after you absorb all the insider's secrets, you may be able to begin generating millions of dollars from any product, like the author did and still doing.

And above all, I know where you can get an affiliate website that comes with free search engine and hosting which will enable you to generate automated internet multiple streams of income from 10,000 different programs and services on auto pilot. This is the motherlode of affiliate programs and it is all you need to strike it rich.

Why make money from 1 or 2 affiliate programs, when you can make a lot more from 10,000 programs automatically? Yu get my drift. (see the links below)

Have a nice day.

I-key

Learnt so much for this thread. Very useful for somebody relatively new to the field like me so THANK YOU!

I'd like to get into affiliate marketing in a serious way and so have been reading a lot. I also found this article useful: 10 Hot Tips on Finding the Right Affiliate Program. Can anybody recommend any further reading for me? Which are the best ebooks out there on affiliate marketing?

The article 10 hot tips verified what I have been thinking since starting this affiliate game. You work hard to get someone to be interested enough to click through then they end up signing up on the products site and go straight there from then on making you a one timer then of course the cookie either expires or the user deletes them.

Some of this is countered by having a site with content that keeps people coming back so they are still clicking through.

The ones that really tick me off are the ones that insist that you only use what they give you but a child could do better ads in Paint yet they complain you are not doing enough to sell.

Great thread here :)

This is why it's essential to find an affiliate program or business opportunity that pays lifetime residual income.

Most affiliate programs are heavily biased in favour of the merchant/advertiser. I have referred thousands of customers to certain merchants but, while they often continue to benefit with sales for years to come, all I get is a measily one-off CPA or CPS commission.

Most of the merchants on this page are good and the tool will save you TONS of time and help you build sites quick and easy. It will still take lots of work on the traffic building side to make any income though.
Linda,
Thank you for suggesting http://www.afftools.com/psc/directory.html I discover a company I had already signed in, was on AffTools, it saved me a lot of time as I concentrate on products. If someone want to see how it can be implemented see Mondera on www.carametis.com

Thanks again, Nicolas

Default Advertising

I stumbled around for a long time trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. Believe me, those gurus are no help either. They all say the same thing over and over just repackaged each time.

So I did research into advertising.

I'm still learning but I realized there were others who could benefit from the info I was digging out. A lot of this came from books published 100+ years ago on marketing but it still applies today. I brought it up to date for the internet but it applies to any medium you are using.

It is the Psychology Of Advertising. Everyone needs to know how to use ad copy for maximum impact and this information is spot on with it.

Yes, I'm charging money for it because I put in a LOT of time and effort into the project. But it is still cheap compared to what those "gurus" are charging for their information that is nowhere near as indepth as this is.

Default Ultimate Wealth Package Review

Hello,

My name is Johnny and I will get right to the point.

I started looking for opportunities to make money on the internet a little over a year ago when my company went out of business and I lost my job. I had a good job with what I thought was a good company until one day out of the blue I was
told our company is shutting down next month and I am losing my job. So there went my $50,000 a year income that took me 10 years to get. I knew I would not be able to find another job that would pay me $50,000/year. So I started looking for ways
to make money myself instead of looking for another job.

I spent the next 3 months trying almost every business opportunity online and off. I was scammed by 37 different "get rich quick schemes" and I lost over $3800 in 4 months. Everyone of these so called money making programs all said the same thing "they were going to help me make a lot of money with out having any experience" I was in the position where I had to create an income quick, I had no other choice. Even though I thought most of these programs were probably scams I tried them anyway because I knew that if just one of these programs worked for me that is all it would take.

Out of 37 programs 36 were complete scams that just took my money. Only 1 program actually worked. I am going to give you an honest review of the 1 program that did work for me. Although you might not make money as fast as they say you will, you will make money if you follow their steps. Below is my brutally honest opinion about this program. If you are looking at any other program besides this one you are most likely wasting your time, because I have tried them all and this is the only one that worked.

Don't Get Scammed and Good Luck~Johnny

--------------------------------------

Out of the 37 get rich quick and money making programs I tried this is the top program for making money on the Internet. Now chances are you won't start making money within one hour like
it says however if you join this program most likely you will start earning money within 3 days. I earned $189 my first week and by week number 3 I was making over $900 per week. Last week I banked $2400 in profit in only 6 days.

The great thing about this program is that it allowed me to start earning money online without having any prior knowledge and they even provided phone support once I became a member. Another cool thing is the more time I put into this the more
money I continue to make, not only that any one can do this. It does not matter where you live in the world. As long as you have Internet access you can start making money. They even built me a free website which has made me over $2700.The purchase price is a little high at $299 dollars, but look out for the occasional special offer. I bought the package for $299 and the very next day it was being sold for only $99! I didn't mind because I made it all back anyway! A full refund is also offered if you are not happy with the product which is
extremely reassuring.

Of all the money making opportunities I tried this is by far the best

I just checked the website and discovered its on special offer for only $50!

I understand what you are saying. But how long or when do you know that the affiliate that I pick is good a month, two or more. I'm still kind of new to this game but not quite. Is there a way how to protect my affiliate accounts from someone else taking it away from me and placing it with there account name. I recently discovered that this is possible through other forums that I've visited but so far no one has given any type of advise or solution to this problem. I'm hopping you or someone out there might know.

1) How to build a good site that converts

2) SEO - you need TONS of traffic since only maybe 1 out of 200 will buy and your commission per sale may only be around $10. SEO help your site get top ranking in the search engines so more people can find you. There may be over 1 million pages competing for a search term relating to a product you are trying to sell so you have to be really good.
Thousands of people already know how to do this, so you have lots of catch up to do.

3) Then there is lots of trial and error in picking the right merchants and learning the best ways to promote them.

I'm not trying to be negative, just realistic. Too many people think AM is get rich quick. They throw up a couple banners and wonder why they never make a single sale.

HOW LONG? Depends partly on how much money you need to make. My best guess (trying to be realistic not pessimistic) is that if you were EXTREMLY fast at learning this and EXTRMELY good and EXTREMLY lucky you may hit 2000 in 2 years. That's based on the fact that you are starting at 0 and based on the fact that if you have another full time job you won't be able to devote much time to working AM.

If you decide to try - the biggest challenge will be the 1st few months - checking your stats and seeing 0 or $5 here and $5 there and wondering if all the work was worth it. But once you get some sales rolling, if you stay committed and work hard the commissions should very gradually continue to grow.

Default affiliate marketing - don't give up!

Chris,

I am new to this forum and just read through your post (as well as the replies). I am still learning about affiliate marketing and have bought some online ebooks. I think it can be a little overwhelming at first, but basically you have to dive in and just start.

Here is a starter page I signed up for with an ebook that I learned a BUNCH from... It has really helped me in my learning process.

Best of Luck,
Aidan
