Recently, I’ve been spending a lot of time using Affiliate Marketing to pay my bills. While learning and tweaking, I’ve come across a few great tools. I’ll review them as I find the time, but the first is Datafeedr. The reason I’m reviewing this right away is because, it’s probably one of the greatest Affiliate Marketing tools I’ve come across…
I’ve been talking to a friend of mine who owns a blog about advertising on his site. It was interesting to see how we both have two different views on the idea. I think that the advertising, as long as it’s useful to my readers, is worthwhile. It has a value added to both me, and my readers. He, on the other hand, felt like it was selling out; that you should blog for the love of blogging.
One of the hardest parts of getting into affiliate marketing was setting up a Squeeze Page. Just getting started is difficult enough, but putting together one that converts more often than not can take time.
So I’ve put together two sample Squeeze Pages to get you started…
If you’re working from home for yourself or are otherwise self-employed, but don’t have your own business, you’re missing out. Business owners gain a number of perks not available to other people.
Starting your own company is easy, but beware there are sometimes a filing fee. However, once you’re filed with both your State and the IRS, it opens up the possibility for a multitude of benefits.
It’s sad that the news tends to give the Internet a bum rap. Just look at how many shows are dedicated to how shitty things are, and how dangerous the Internet is.
Want an example? Check out “To Catch a Predator“. The show is dedicated to finding online predators. They do this by getting a girl to pretend she’s a 14 year old girl in a chat room, and then inviting the guy over to have sex.
First of all, I want to know how the producer’s know which chat rooms to go to, but more importantly it seems that the girls are really the ones leading the men to the idea of sex. In fact a number of cases had to be dropped since the men had been illegally arrested.
All is not lost though, because I know truthfully, that a majority of Internet users are good people. The media works hard to fear monger, while bloggers continually fight to show truth.
I’ve finally finished putting together my eCourse and Newsletter. You can register now and get my FREE “Web Marketer’s Guide to Building Site Traffic”.
The 7 day eCourse, outlines daily tasks to help you start a profitable blog and list. It’s full of free gifts, and will teach you everything you need to know about Affiliate Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, and Social Media.
The latest trend in online start ups is following the “funding and popularity now, profits later” model. Stumbleupon started this way and have now begun monetizing their site by offering advertising and sponsored membership.
This model works for some ideas, especially those that gravitate users to a specific site or area. But monetization becomes more difficult when users are spread across multiple mediums.
A few days ago I overheard on Twitter, someone asking Shoemoney, “Does everything you touch turn to gold?” Obviously he wasn’t talking literally, but instead how everything that the Shoemoney brand has a part of does well. It does so simply because of the power of a good brand.
So what’s the difference between a brand like Nikon and Shoemoney? Simple, Jeremy has made a brand not…
