Where you place your affiliate links on your website can really make a difference on how many clicks you end up getting and since every click means a potential sale, this is an important aspect of internet marketing and especially affiliate marketing.

Research has shown that the most effective affiliate links are text links. Yes, simply plain text links. Psychologiacally people don’t like big flashy banner ads like most affiliate website are filled to the brim with. Look at my blog, it barely has any if any affiliate banners, flashing links or anything like that! Am I missing out on revenue? Probably not…

What happens is that you write a great article (or have one created) about the product or something related to the product (like a review) and stick the link into your text. This allows interested readers to see the link as they are reading and click on it.

Affiliate Cloak Magic - Will Show you how to use cloaking to effectively increase sales by over 400%!

Of course, your article and your links have to work effectively together to make this happen. A bad article and an unrelated link to an unknown product are not likely to make the profits roll in. If you don’t believe me I could show you over 100 articles in my name that barely made any sales and I could show you 50 others that do. The point here is that relevancy, almost like Google AdWords is key!

So the next time you are out to choose an affiliate link, try placing a relevant link in a great article that is well optimized for search engines and see how it works out for you. This works in even competetive niches where people are skeptical. You easily convince people with highg relevance and strong informative ideas…

Hi,

I’ve been away and haven’t been posting for a while… This is because I’ve been doing somework in a few niches and generating a solid income stream the past 3 weeks… I just wanted to share what I did to get traffic and how I was able to monetize it…

#1. I went directly for a wordpress blog with technorati tags and social bookmarking add-on you see below…

#2. I submitted my RSS feed through Feedburner and used that feed in order to post it using an RSS software that finds about 30 RSS directories… I won’t mention the software becuase it practically doesn’t work anymore, but I recieved maybe 30-40 hits/day for a little while from that… (And this is a rather large niche) Nothing fancy, not even a recommendation, more of a case-study type deal. Submitting your RSS feed and tag/ping isn’t dead, but it’s not as effective as it once was!

#3. I created 6 videos and uploaded them to YouTube with an attractive image right in the middle in order to increase clicks and also did some simple “YouTube SEO”.

#4. I outsourced 25 articles that I submitted to 5 article directories each day… Well, 1 articles per day to 5 articles directories for a total of 5 submissions/day over a 3 week day period. That was no trouble and cost me about $85!

#5. I was going crazy trying to get a JV or any kind of partnership and finally got a mailing to a 2,000 people list resulting in 16 sales @ $37 each… totalling $592 BAD CONVERSIONS :(… Oh Well… The Show Must Go On!

Total Profits In 90 days… 63 x $37 = $2331 - PayPal Fee - $185 outsource = Pretty darn close to $2K even :O - not so bad, but 90 days of HARD WORK :/, This was hard work and I spent a lot of time on this, so this is something that I practically “lost” on… I feel that spent more time & effort than I had return… But I was getting some nice income from PPC on Yahoo! & Google at the same time so that’s fine…

My business model for this promotion was based on:

Squeeze -Sales Page - and no backend :(… so something I learn and can teach you is “HAVE A BACKEND FOR GOD*S SAKES!!” I might have made like $5k more with a backend, OTO or something like that… But I was lazy..

AND… NO I WON*T TELL WHAT NICHE IT*S IN!

Until Next Time,

You want to make money online from home right? That is an ideal for everyone who wants to learn how to make a lot of money. But the secret is not in making money from home, I believe it’s in the lifestyle… Making money from home is a mindset a living… yes, a state of mind really.

I have found when I want to quickly make money online from home I have to think twice. Why? Because there are so many different ways to do it and so many ways that one can add value to another persons life…

I believe that if you can add value to another persons life by giving them something that they want to learn you can get paid for it. But if you give away ideas worth $10,000 for only $10-$20 to 1,000,000 people you would become a millionaire right then and there! So, that is our goal with marketing. Even making money quickly!

Find things that people want and add amazing value to it and give it away for free! If you can do that you will have a very wealthy and quick stream of income! Just listen to the 12 month millionaire who recently got interviewed by Rusell Brunson, who is an amazing marketer with a lot of wise words to say.

So if you want to make money online from home be sure to find something people are dying for and add amazing value to their lives. That is how viral marketing is born and that is how people become wealthy! Be the expert, be the source for everything, but most of all… GIVE GIVE & GIVE!

When you learn to give and share your deepest secrets, that is when you will have a release of tension and people will start to respect your work.

I did a marketing test campaign in order to test some of these Advertising sites out that I’ve mentioned before. What I found were some interesting results…

Yahoo SearchMarketing - $31 spent - $64 Earned.

AdBrite 1-Day Text Link - $14 - 378,647 impressions - 116 clicks - $106 CB Earnings - Total $92+

Google AdWords - $73 Spent - $79 Earned…

This means that the most profitable campaign was at “AdBrite Ad Marketplace”. I’m going to do a few more of these “AdBlasts” and try to find more profitable campaigns that you can benefit from. I find that the conversion rates for AdBrite are a lot lower than any Google AdWords, or Yahoo Search Marketing ad campaign, but it only costs $3 for 1,000,000 impressions for a one day ad, which is a GOOD DEAL even if you don’t convert that much. I think that most sites are way underpriced! I have found ads for $1, @ 40,000 clicks… It’s insane, you just have to look through the site and make sure you get approved!

In the mean time, maybe you would like to check out my $100/day system that has nothing to do with paid advertising and it’s sooo easy to do, it’s free to join and free techniques. I strongly suggest you DO upgrade to GOLD membership for the most benefits!
