Only 3% of aspiring internet marketers ever make money online,
and only a small percentage of that 3% get to give up their day-.job
We just don’t realize, when we start out trying to drive traffic to
affiliate offers, the depth and breadth of the knowledge needed to
successfully make a full time living sitting in front of our PC’s in
our underwear, [at least, that’s the image the people who sell
‘systems” try to convey], so we go shopping for the right e-book
or video series that will teach us all the ins-and-outs in a few hours,
not aware that most of which are recycled stuff that has been
around for years, and contain information that can be gleaned from
the web for free.
The so-called “gurus” who sell this stuff know that the information
is incomplete, and sometimes worthless, and they know that even
if we study hard and implement the knowledge we’ve bought, [which
the vast majority WON’T do] we’ll be back for more, because there
are a million more things to learn, so they always have a “new”
course of study waiting for us and our credit cards.
So it is no accident that the Make Money Online or Home
Business niche is the biggest, most competitive category of info
products. The ones who sell the information keep us in the dark
so that we are always a prime, easy target for more sales.
There are, of course, really good, comprehensive systems for sale
online that WILL teach us what we need to know, and some of these
products have been around for a long time and have sold many
thousands of copies to people who later became successful. The
real trick we need to master is picking the right product to learn
from, so that we are not continuously going “back to the well” for
more of the knowledge we are lacking. The problem with that being,
the “gurus” want us to believe that the book or video series they are
selling RIGHT NOW is the one we need, and are very good, indeed,
at convincing us of it.
So, in order to avoid making additional purchases of info products
for every aspect of marketing, we need to select just ONE that will
get our business up and running and profiting.
No marketing system is the end-all, be-all of marketing systems,
but a few are at least complete enough to guide us to making a
profit, and it is SO much easier to justify spending more on info-
products to fine tune your skills if you are already making money
and don’t have to raid your savings account.

heartedly recommend, go here:http://tinyurl.com/profitz

Does internet marketing seem like a deep, dark mystery
to you? Are you like a starving refugee, gazing into a window,
where rich people are eating a perpetual Thanksgiving dinner?
You know that the money is out there, lying around in piles,
and some people are allowed to load their pockets each day,
while the majority can only watch and wait….and wait….
Well, I, for one, and thousands of others, have decided to
join the feast, and if the door is locked, we’ll kick it down! By
“we”, I mean the thousands of Wealthy Affiliate University
members, who together represent a formidable force of
unstoppable momentum, barging into the celebration without
an invitation!
You see, all the self-proclaimed “gurus” tell you that making
money online is “easy” as long as you buy their sure-fire
systems. The only problem with that is, 95% of the marketing
strategies you buy from strangers are either out-dated,
incomplete, or just plain garbage, and most tell you that in
order for you to make the best money online, you need this or
that tool or software that is not included in the package you just
bought, but, “hey, no problem, here’s my affiliate link to that
marvelous product”, and bam! they’ve got you again!
The biggest strategy in online marketing is the upsell, where
most marketers make more money than the original sale, and
the list, where all marketers will continue to bombard you with
offers for as long as you are on it. Don’t blame them, it’s the
way things work. Instead of getting mad, get even.
Learn to be the offerER instead of the offerEE.
I spent thousands of dollars online buying the “next big thing”
only to find that none of them ever worked for me, because,
you see, internet marketing IS NOT EASY! There is a learning
process that is the equivalent to a couple of years of college
[at least] and the “gurus” don’t want you to graduate!
When you get to the level of knowledge that they are at, you
cease being a customer and become the competition, so why
would they actually help you along the way?
My eyes were finally opened by Wealthy Affiliate University,
and now I see the big picture.
You should take the free tour and decide whether it is better
for you to be a sheep or a wolf.
Product Launches Pay Huge Dividends for Affiliate Marketers June 4, 2010

Ever wonder why, when you finally hear about a hot, new product that is flying off the virtual shelves, it’s already being promoted by
the big-name guru’s?
If you are like me, you’ve bought into these “sure fire money-makers” only to find the market thoroughly saturated, with “Big Dawg”
marketers raking in all the gravy and leaving the rest of us to lick the bowl.
But the truth is, if you can manage to get in at the outset of a product launch by a well-known marketer, the gravy, and the profits,
can be yours, as well.
These insiders, who usually are recruited by the product creator, always get the product free of charge to peruse, use, and write reviews of, as well as promote to their lists, and that’s when the rest of us finally learn about it. By then, it’s too late to get
in on the heavy profit making, and we usually have a hard time even
recouping the investment we made to buy the product in the first place.
If you are a known entity, meaning someone who has promoted a product successfully and has a responsive list, then you already
are aware of how it works, but if you are among the majority of
marketers, who have yet to break into the upper echelon of online
earners, getting that first invitation to a ground-floor launch is only a daydream. It’s just another example of the old axiom, “the rich
get richer” and leaves us wannabes more than a little frustrated while we gaze at websites that feature the smiling faces of “the rich”.
But there is a way to beat everyone except the guru’s to the punch, and maybe even make YOU one of the elite few who start promoting new
products before everyone else even knows of their existence.
Here’s how: (secret video)

Forget Selling! The Money is in CPA Marketing January 26, 2010

So you`ve tried affiliate marketing, driven thousands of hits to
someone else`s sites, built their lists for them, and just haven`t
seen the money. Well, I`m sorry to break this to you, but as long
as you promote another`s product without your own website,
that is pretty much what you can expect.
You need a squeeze page to build your own list, your own
domains, websites, and products to make money in affiliate
marketing.
It takes a massive effort to build a list, brand yourself, and
develop your own products, but to succeed as an affiliate for clickbank
products, it is absolutely neccessary. What to do?
There is a way to by-pass all that drudgery and make a really
impressive income while you are at it: CPA marketing.
CPA stands for cost-per-action, or cost-per-acquisition, meaning
you can be paid for a prospect`s taking a free trial, completing a
short survey, filling in his or her email address, or even their zip
code!
The payment ranges from $1 for a zip code to $55 or more for a
trial of a product, and you do nothing but present the offer to the
prospect, sending them to the website just as in affiliate marketing.
The only difference being, it`s just a whole lot easier to convert a
CPA offer than to sell a product.
I personally am an affiliate for the #1 health product company on
the web, and am happily making a very good income giving stuff
away.
Free trials of products that will make the recipient more healthy
or physically attractive are no challenge at all to convert.
Just tell them you are going to advertise via search marketing,
meaning pay-per-click, and they will welcome you into the fold.

Goo-Gool Deflowers Yet Another Pay-Per-Click Virgin… January 12, 2010

Goo-Gool, the alien posing as the internet giant Google, has just
recieved word that another order from one of his Soo-Per-Ahf-e-le-ahts
has been turned into his newest pay-per-click ad account.
As usual, he rubs his claws together greedily while salivating green
slime, for it seems “Bob”, [or was it “Molly”?], has purchased a
spanking-new sure-fire guide to earning HUGE commissions with
pay-per-click ads, and has created his [or her] Adwords account in
the expectation of striking it rich overnight.
Nothing else can make Goo-Gool so happy.
You see, Goo-Gool knows that this neophyte marketer will rush
headlong into an ad campaign, target all the wrong keywords, write
ad copy that only attracts tire-kickers, and drop a bundle of cash
squarely into Goo-Gool`s lap, making his quest for world domination
a little closer to reality.
[For Clarification of just what Goo-Gool is,visit here: http://wp.me/pozFP-1Z%5D
“Bob”, [or “Molly”], should have known better.
He, [or she] should have known that only a tiny percentage of marketers
actually make money with pay-per-click advertising because of all the
details that the Goo-Roos leave out of their latest and greatest product.
Think of it this way: If you had a system that made you hundreds or
even thousands of dollars a day, would you share it with every Tom,
Dick, and Harry who could come up with 47, 77, or 97 dollars?
I know I wouldn`t, and neither will Goo-Gool`s minions, the Goo-Roos.
What the beginning marketer REALLY needs is a way to duplicate the
ad campaigns of the select few who actually make money with Adwords.
When a budding pay-per-click marketer comes to the realization that
the profits are reserved for only the elite,[because they`re REALLY
GOOD at it}, then buyer`s remorse for the purchase of that “guaranteed”
adwords course tends to set in rather quickly.
So, whattaya do about this terrible inequity? How do you make the
same outrageous profits that the “Gurus” make? You COPY what they
are doing!
I know, there are numerous systems for sale that can, and will show
you how to do that, but almost every one of them are membership sites,
meaning you are fed a little of the formula at a time, for as long as you
pay them your monthly fees.
Affiliate Espionage is different. For a one-time, very reasonable fee,
they will teach you how to…Copy Profitable Ad Campaigns.
Affiliate Espionage will show you the keywords they`re using, theprice
they are paying for those keywords, all the other sites he or she is
promoting, all THOSE keywords, whether or not he or she is making
any money promoting those keywords, and much, much more.
Now you can copy profitable ads that you KNOW will make money,
without any guess work, split testing, or losing your hard-earned cash!

10 Things to Know Before Choosing an Affiliate Marketing Program May 19, 2009
Posted by teemike in Uncategorized.Tags: affiliate marketing, affiliate marketing program, make money
add a comment
#1 Ask questions first before you join an affiliate program. Research your choices of programs.
#2 Will it cost you anything to join? If you join a marketing system that teaches you how to make money, the price can be from $27 to $5,000. In the more expensive systems, the amount of information you will receive is enormous and daunting, so stick to systems that cost under $100 so as not to be overwhelmed with info. Also, they are easier to sell.
#3 When do they issue the commission checks? Every program is different. Some issue their checks once a month, every quarter, etc. Most new marketers need their money as quickly as possible. It is usually best to join a program that sells clickbank products so that you know exactly when [and if] you get paid. Clickbank is ultra dependable.
#4 What is the hit per sale ratio? This is the average number of hits to a banner or text link it takes to generate a sale based on all affiliate statistics. This factor is extremely important because this will tell you how much traffic you must generate before you can earn a commission from the sale.
#5 How are referrals from an affiliate’s site tracked and for how long do they remain in the system? Are you confident in the program`s ability to track those people you refer from your site. This is the only way that you can credit for a sale. The period of time that those people stay in the system is also important. This is because some visitors do not buy initially but may want to return later to make the purchase. Know if you will still get credit for the sale if it is done some months from a certain day.
#6 Is it easy to track your stats? The program should have your hits and impressions readily available and you should check them often.
#7 Who is the online retailer? Find out whom you are doing business with to know if it is really a solid company. Know the products they are selling and the average amount they are achieving. The more you know about the retailer offering you the affiliate program, the easier it will be for you to know if that program is really for you and your site.
#8 Is the affiliate a one tier or two tier program? A single tier program pays you only for the business you yourself have generated. A two tier program pays you for the business, plus it also pays you a commission on the sales generated by any affiliate you sponsor in your program.
#9 Are there residual payments? This can be huge if the program is a membership with recurring monthly fees that you are paid a commission on each month.
#10 What is the commission rate? Do not settle for less than 50% commissions! Most affiliates these days are getting 60-75%, which is reasonable, since you are the one doing the advertising for the program.
These are just some of the questions that need answering before you enter into an affiliate program. If you are interested in a marketing system that answers all these concerns and teaches you how to make big money at the same time, go here:http://tinyurl.com/c8yrvt
