The top three keys to starting your own online affiliate business
February 4, 2008 | Leave a Comment
There are a number of things to look for when starting your own online affiliate business. But, before I get into the specifics of what to search for, the one aspect that an individual must possess in order to be a successful Internet marketer is PERSISTENCE. With out this quality you might as well stop reading right now. Like many successful entrepreneurs, persistence is one of the main qualities that allow them to be successful. Once you acquire this characteristic there is no stopping you.
Now, let me get into the specifics for all the ADD people out there like my self before I lose you.
Keyword Research
First, one of the main aspects of being a productive affiliate marketer is niche market research. You must find an unexploited niche market that has limited advertising competition. The number of advertisers in a certain market is key to being profitable with your product, the fewer advertisers the better. One of the best tools to use to find these unexploited niche markets is Google Adwords. If you have a google account you can sign up for adwords for free in your account information.
This tool allows you to research for keywords that have a descent average search volume and also lists the average number of advertisers for each keyword. This is crucial to finding the right market to promote with your marketing skills. Without this important market research you will be wasting your time. I do not know about you but my time is definitely precious to me. I cannot say it enough but RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH is critical to being profitable in this business.
Affiliate Programs
Next, once you find that unexploited niche market, yep you guessed it, more research. Now you have to find the affiliate programs that pertain to that particular market. For example, lets say you want to promote garden tools, you will have to find companies on the Internet that manufacture or sell these products and make sure they have affiliate programs for you to sign up with. Once you find these companies make sure to read up on their affiliate programs. Some of the things to look out for are the percentage of commission you will receive with their affiliate program. If the costs of products are expensive then the percentage should range from five to fifteen percent, if the products are cheap you will be looking for a percentage higher than fifteen percent, like twenty to fifty percent.
Other stuff to look for when applying for affiliate programs is how they pay you and how often they pay you. Usually most programs send you checks once your commissions have exceeded a certain amount like over fifty dollars, only so they will not be sending checks out for five dollars or something ridiculous like that. Some of the best affiliate programs out there are Clickbank and LinkShare. These programs carry over thousands of different products that are just waiting for someone to promote them.
Generating Traffic
The last part of the process is generating traffic for your new affiliate product. There are several different methods you can use all at the same time to maximize your full potential.
You can write blogs about you product. Promoting the benefits of your product and using your affiliate link to monetize that blog. Blogger.com is free and simple to use for anybody, and I do mean anybody. Article marketing is another free and easy way to generate traffic to your affiliate site. Myspace is another great way to promote your business and products by talking to your friends online about what you are doing.
Participating in forums is one more option you can use to promote your products and affiliate links.
These are just a few ways to generate traffic for your affiliate links; there are many more options out there.

Where can you get an entire internet marketing program with everything you need to become a successful internet marketer and mentors that will assist you every step of the way? My Marketing Goldmine has it all, and then some. If you are trying to build an online business you need to head over there right now and sign up. Don’t buy another thing until you see what this membership site has to offer. I promise you will be amazed. The owners of the site, Dave Isaacs and Aaron Leighton have put together the most comprehensive site available on the web today for those trying to earn a living online.
What makes it so good? Well first of all, you need hosting, right? How about hosting for 20 domains? How about an unlimited number of autoresponders and follow-up messages? How about customizable web templates, a training course on building traffic, and a customizable monthly newsletter?
Don’t have your own product to sell? How about a niche product library and a PLR and resell rights library?
Not sure how to set up your website, how to track your ads? Are you brand new and being faced with information overload? Do you learn better by seeing and doing? There is absolutely everything you need to start and build a successful online business. All the training is on video; there’s a member’s forum, and a support desk. Become an affiliate and promote this awesome site to just two people and your monthly membership is free.
Like membership sites? Ever heard of Russell Brunson? His is part of the package. Plus he provides his own bonuses including his very popular training on making money with public domain materials and his Affiliate Landmines products.
You need to stop whatever you’re doing. Stop spending anymore money anywhere else, because everything you need is right here. When I saw the advertising during the pre-launch I was simply astounded by what Dave and Aaron planned to include in their membership site, but it’s all there, and more. Every time I go back to the member’s area, I find something new. I am serious when I say that you won’t need to buy another thing ever again to build your business unless you want to. Whatever it is, you’ll probably find it in the membership site.
Want to have your own JV program? That means having others do the selling for you. As part of the membership, there’s an area where you can set this up to keep track of all your products and all your affiliates. Now stop reading and head over there now. You won’t be sorry. They are waiving the initial start-up fee now so get in on this while it’s still free. I don’t know how long they intend on doing this.
I’ve been looking at products and buying products for several years now, and this simply is the most comprehensive package I’ve ever seen. Take a look at my blog to learn all the details.
I love the internet, especially everything to do with graphics, although this is the part of the internet I know least about. I love reading and writing and I do freelance work. See my site..http://foreverfreelance.blogspot.com. I have two awesome daughters, a sweet dog, and a snooty, cutie of a cat. Now take a look at the best chance you have of being a successful web business owner.

Internet Marketing Resolutions
January 15, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Starting a New Year is all about self-reflecting. Most individuals celebrate the incoming year by looking back, determining what goals were met and what goals fell short. Most who have made past resolutions then look forward and resolve to do better in the coming year.
Like any Internet marketer, I have a long laundry list of things that I intend to get to… invariably each year the list grows longer, and rarely do I make any significant headway on new projects, ideas, or marketing techniques. I resolve for that to change in 2008! I have compiled a list of Internet Marketing resolutions for the coming year. If your list is already too long, consider saving time and using the list below.
1. Track and Measure
Before launching any advertising campaigns, be sure to determine how the campaign will be tracked. I will determine exactly how much money we need to make from the campaign in order for it to be effective and worth the effort.
2. Investigate Pay Per Review
I resolve to take a closer look at pay per review websites like PayPerReview, ReviewMe, and PayPerPost and to discern whether the model will be effective for marketing software.
3. Make Video Tutorials
It is time! Being a tad on the shy side, this item keeps finding its way to the bottom of my marketing list. However, it is time to utilize videos and use them as marketing tools, websites like YouTube can help raise awareness of products and help instruct our users.
4. Leverage Web 2.0
It is time to explore some of those unusual mediums, and discern the marketing viability of Web 2.0. While RSS and syndication are now a marketing staple, Web 2.0 has more to offer and is worth a closer look in the coming year.
5. Learn How to Benefit from the Collective Voice
The collective voice is growing stronger and is more like a resounding shout these days. With visitor opinions weighing heavily in how much exposure an item receives, it is time for me to get social, and use the collective voice as a marketing tool.
6. Develop a Channel for User Generated Content
Companies like CNN are expanding their content with minimal costs by inviting viewers to submit news, videos and photos. The result CNN is able to offer is a wider breadth of content. I need to further examine the possibilities of user generated content and determine how I can involve users and still retain control.
7. Encourage WOMM
Word of mouth marketing is a corner stone of marketing, and yet few marketers ever solicit customer referrals and encourage users to talk about their products. I intend to encourage word of mouth and viral marketing in 2008.
8. Website Update
Every year, I attempt to update my many websites. While throughout the year new content is added, I think many of our websites are long over due for an overhaul. It is time to look at many of the websites and add a complete update.
9. Launch Something New
New products and services help invigorate a product line. It is time for a new launch!
10. Automation and Processes
Automation has been critical to our growth in 2007. Expanding automation into 2008 will help control costs and increase productivity. I need to examine to both examine systems and processes and determine where automation can be most effective to our company.
Resolutions are all about making a firm decision. They are difficult to keep, but I intend to let optimism rule 2008 and take action. If you feel the same way, keep in mind that reading the list of Internet marketing resolutions is simply not enough. Be proactive and schedule time to allow for success. And, of course, do not forget to change the batteries in the smoke detector, prune your RSS feeds and update your website’s copyright notices. Happy New Year!

A Review of Internet Marketer Mike Filsaime
January 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Mike Filsaime is an internet marketer. He has a program called Butterfly Marketing that enables you to take a course and get internet marketing tools to create your own successful business, but is he for real?
Can you trust his information above someone else’s? According to this website Mike Filsaime posted a comment on how to create Buzz. He is telling you as the internet business person that you can create buzz with relative ease and make a successful business with just buzz as well as knowing how to market yourself and your website.
Mike Filsaime has stated that you can manufacture buzz with just a few viral marketing strategies while using the internet. The idea is that you create the buzz and then in a couple of days your website is the hottest place to be. So is he really telling the truth? It seems that Mike Filsaime knows what he is talking about. His example was the whopper crisis apparently started by Burger King when they took the whoppers off the menu.
In a matter of days the internet was showing the video of the supposed freak out customers were having over the whopper being taken off the menu. Most of the individuals who viewed the video it seems went to the internet site to see the freak out and then went to their local burger king to see if the item was really off the menu. This is what Mike Filsaime means by buzz and then a viral marketing strategy.
Many individuals heard about the website, went to view it and then had to check it out for themselves. If you have an idea for an internet site Mike Filsaime says you have to get the buzz out on your site, make it the hottest place to go, and make sure that thousands of individuals know about the web site in order to make yourself successful.
Mike Filsaime’s idea is to use video. The idea is that a video can be posted on the web at places like Youtube.com and you can make yourself well known by a couple of articles and showing people how to get access to the video. Then the video leaves them with just enough information to tantalize the customer into going to your site. It is a rather brilliant strategy.
So if you are interested in gaining more insight into how to market yourself and your internet site you may want to check out this guy’s marketing program called Butterfly Marketing. You may find that the tools you need are right in the course packaging and that you increase your income in just a few days.
This is not guarantee of success, and the owner will tell you that you must follow the plan as it works, not to deviate because you think you know better. The idea is to use a successful tool and have it at your disposal in order to make yourself successful, and this guy Mike is trying to offer just that.

Wanna Be An Internet Marketer? Reality Check!
January 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment
The fruits of a successful Internet marketer are very tempting to a newbie in Internet marketing. The dream of making money while sleeping or relaxing by the pool and beach sure conjure up a tempting picture! And the image of cash pouring in at the push of a few buttons cooked up by some Internet marketers just increases the excitement felt by Internet marketing newbies. The statistics on sales made online sure makes that a definite possibility. According to figures given by PC Magazine, in UK alone, web sales in 2007 rose 29% to a staggering £130 billion! Now, who would not want a slice of that online pie? Even if its a teeny weeny slice!
At Internet marketing seminars like World Internet Summit, you can commonly hear the Internet marketing experts say, “As long as you know how to send email, you can be Internet marketer!” But is it really possible to make your fortune from the Internet? Sure, its certainly possible to make piles of cash from the Internet. It’s been proven before.
But then again, is it really that simple? Certainly…for some people. People with the right aptitude and mindset do make fortunes online. But for the majority, a huge, overwhelming majority I suspect, making enough money online to quit their day-time job remains a pipe dream.
Many new Internet marketers want to make it big but do not have a clear idea how to go about it. So they buy coaching programs from “gurus”, hopefully to short cut the learning curve. But many “gurus’” coaching programs are not of the quality they claimed to be. Even if they are, newbies are not guaranteed success.
Even as the coaching programs’ quality is important in contributing to a newbie’s success, just as important if not more so, is each individual’s mindset and aptitude. Even with the best Internet marketing coaching program, if the newbie is not prepared mentally and physically to take action to implement it, he or she will not succeed. If he or she is not prepared to put in the hours to go through the program, he or she is better off saving the expensive fees, steering clear of such coaching programs. Some people buy such programs after being shown how good they are, hoping that the programs will somehow transform their lives.
The successful Internet marketers are some of the most hardworking people despite what some claimed.
If the newbie is not mentally prepared to dig in the trenches and do the required work or wants success bad enough to do whatever it takes, its best to stick to their day jobs. Sure, they can outsource the tedious work but not everything can be outsourced. So what does it take to be a successful Internet marketer?
7 traits of a successful Internet marketer, in no particular order:
1. An entrepreneurial spirit
2. A can-do, never-quit attitude and does whatever it takes to make things happen
3. A marketing expert and be innovative in marketing techniques
4. Internet & technically savvy (not an absolute must but it sure cuts your learning curve)
5. Ability to focus on what’s important, one at a time in terms of priority
6. Integrity as a good business person. Building trust relationships successfully is huge, huge factor in Internet marketing
7. Be well-informed about the current and effective marketing techniques and ability to apply them quickly. This also means willingness and ability to learn and apply new stuff (techniques and technology)
If you have all 7 traits, GREAT! If not, you can still succeed if you have some of them.
If you are unwilling or unable to find time to take action to learn the ropes of internet marketing AND implement the knowledge you have acquired, do not sign up for the “guru’s” coaching program! Do not fool yourself into thinking that just by purchasing the program, you will somehow succeed in creating a passive income stream.

Enjoy Working at Home at Your New Online Business
January 11, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Success is NOT the result of a one-time event.
You can only attain success through consistent action toward meaningful goals.
With the Pay-It-Forward 4 Profits system, it’s possible to get the results you desire using just one of the marketing strategies discussed in this guide including linking, opt-in list building, ezine advertising, Google AdWords, offline promotion or article distribution. However, the combined application of several effective marketing strategies working together can create a foundation of unstoppable traffic that leads to being able to stop working on your website altogether and start enjoying a lifetime of automatic residual profits.
But it can only be achieved by developing your marketing campaign step-by-step on a consistent daily basis. You don’t have to move a mountain in one day, but if you can move just a few rocks every day, eventually you will move the ” mountain” and achieve your dreams.
Most people give up just when they’re about to achieve success. They quit on the last minute. They give up on the yard line of the game one foot from a winning touchdown.
Don’t let this happen to you.

How Joint Ventures can Work for you and your Online Business
January 11, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Joint ventures (JV) are powerful marketing strategies that are well worth the effort it takes to learn. Anyone working online trying to earn a reasonable income needs to get serious about learning how to participate in joint ventures, particularly in the increasingly popular JV giveaway events.
So why are joint ventures worth learning how to do? Just look at the multiple benefits for your business and tell me where else you will find such value in one operation.
• Grow your internet marketing list quickly.
• Grow your online business with less effort and expense.
• Create new internet marketing relationships that count.
• Low cost of joint venture giveaway events.
• Discover new ways to promote your business
• Get referrals and or testimonials from joint venture partners.
• Build trust and credibility for your internet product or service.
• Build your reputation as an experienced internet marketer with respected JV partners.
• Build your authority in your internet marketing specialty or service.
That is not bad for starters. Now let’s look at what joint ventures are and how they can work for you and your online business.
Let’s take a look at the Internet Marketing Joint Venture - the Giveaway. This is where a group of marketers work together to giveaway different products. Each JV partner benefits from the advertising they all receive because everyone is promoting the same giveaway event.
Consumers find valuable items they like for free. They download good quality digital products by providing basic contact information. Hence each JV partner builds his list. All of the JV partners build from the same consumers, so it is important to have a unique and strong product.
A JV Giveaway costs almost nothing for the JV partner. Chances are good that you already own a dozen or more digital products with giveaway rights. Or you could assemble your own information product on the theme of the giveaway and make money on the One Time Offer (OTO) that pops up when your digital product is delivered. If you are careful in selecting your product it will already have your affiliate identification built into it, so whenever someone buys from a link in your product you will receive residual income. Nice touch.
There are several steps to making a joint venture giveaway work. It is essential to check each step along the way to be sure that all the links are leading to the correct places. Always. Repeat, ALWAYS, check your work before you put it out LIVE online. You really want to be the one finding that nearly invisible embarrassing mistake rather than a customer or a colleague.
Pay attention to your joint venture details, record where you posted and track your marketing campaigns.
