Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing appears to be the easiest of  all the models being that you do not need to do the followings;
1.Have a product of your own,
2.Do not need to concern yourself with how to deliver the product to the buyers
3.Sometimes tools that will help you in the course of marketing like autoresponder email series
All you have to do is to concern yourself with driving traffic to the merchant's website and if the traffic converts to sales, you get your commission
However, to be able to do affiliate marketing of TODAY effectively, you need the followings.
A Domain name
A website
An autoresponder
Link cloaker, so that your links are not tampered with (optional).
Okay, so you are wondering why you need a domain name and a website?
Yes, if you are going to hold your head above the waters in today's affiliate and any online marketing, you need a website and of course a domain name for the following reasons;
1. The cost of driving traffic to any offer these days is so high due to the high competition amongst internet marketers, therefore when you succed in driving traffic to any offer, it must not be a one time thing only because the commission for that singular sale may not be worth the amount of time or money you spent in getting the buyer to the offer. But what if the prospect did not even convert to sale? then the time and money yielded nothing.
What am saying in actual fact is that driving traffic straight or directly to your affiliate link is like sending 1000lb of gold to your merchant site and getting only 1lb of gold as commission.
Why the ratio? well every customer you drive to your merchant site without finding a way to get his contact on your own site either free or paid is a waste to you and a gain to the merchant. He can always market to them as many times as possible but yo cannot because you dont have their contact.
2. You need an autoresponder loaded with email series that can help you in list building. It can work with both paid or free website. Not only that, you can use autoresponder without a website as long as you can send emails. I will show you all about this in subsequent posts.
There are many types of autoresponders, free , free trial for a month, paid auto responder, however, the problem with using completely free autoresponder is that:
They include adverts that might take your prospects away from your sites to your competitors, but if you are just starting out with low or no budget, then its okay.
Another problem is that when your list is beginning to grow, you want to bail out to a paid autoresponder. This is a little bit complicated.
A major advantage of having a website is to be able to sell it at a later date when it has made some money.
So if you are willing to start, these trio, domain name  website auto responder must be ready. 
 Pls go through this carefully and ask me any question if you are not clear about anything because as I progress in this teaching series, we will be going deeper, so its better youask your questions now as it will also help me to treat int in the next post.
Cheers!

HOW TO MAKE MONEY ONLINE WITHOUT BREAKING THE BANK!!!

Hi there,
In case you are wondering why it took me over a month to get back, I went under to get you some low hanging fruits in online marketing without maxing your credit cards, breaking the bank or exceeding your set budget.
Having said that, you do know that despite all the shiny "make money in 2 seconds "  that keeps popping up left right and center online, some models remain unchanged in the course of internet marketing, these ones might give room for tweaks if done in the proper way, but the basic underlying principles does not change.
These models are;
1. Affiliate marketing, where you dont have any product, but you drive both paid and free traffics to a merchant with products and just hope that a percentage of the traffic will convert into buyers, thereby availing you of commissions from the merchant.
2. Content site marketing, popularly known as adsense marketing which so many people have bastardized today by slapping together some shoddy contents and just hoping that the almighty google will direct visitors so they can monetize their sites.
3. Website flipping, this is when you build a website and monetize it either through affiliate marketing or adsense, Kontera and or through other legal means by which you monetize your site and as soon as it generates some money you list it for sale in one or more of the web flipping sites around.
4. Info Products marketing is when you create a digital product on a niche where you have a lot of starving crowd for such information and you sell either by yourself or through affiliate marketers who helps you to drive traffic to your site for commissions on whatever sales are made from  such traffic.
5. Providing services for money.  This is when you write articles for money, make guest post on other people's blog for money, design websites for money, consults for money, data entry, virtual assistants for money.
6. CPA marketing is what can be termed as making people to sign up, or enter zip codes, or email addresses or fill out longer forms for a company that pays you based on the number of people that carried out any of the above mentioned actions. Go here to know about CPA marketing.
7. Work at home jobs like, filling surveys, Mystery shopping, Paid to surf e.t .c are also part of this  category and I can almost lump this category into service providing.
The above list encompasses all you can ever want to be in Internet marketing, regardless of the shiny software that promises riches overnight.
Let me pause at this point to tell you that there has never been anyone who made it the same day they started online. Do not mind all the Gurus who promised riches in two months. All these promises makes you to think a program is not working after three months and you keep going back to them for the next shiny object. Give it at least six 6 months of persistent working before you start seeing results and when you do, you get the motivation to know what works and what doesnt and you ramp up on what works.
Now in this list, each of the categories have various components that makes the business model work for anybody be it a newbie or a Guru, however, some components like list building, email marketing,traffic generation  are the same throughout all the business models.
We shall be examining the components of each of this categories one after the other on this blog after which we will treat the common components to all the business models/categories.
Watch out for the coming article where you get to meet each of the business models face-to-face. This will be done in a way that the average Joe or the newbie can pick up immediately.
To your ability to put all what i teach you on this blog to use!!!
Cheers!

THE REASON WHY YOU FALL PREY TO SCAMMERS IN INTERNET BUSINESS

Top Of The Day!
There has never been a substitute for hard work since I was born, before and for the rest of the years I am going to spend alive, the dimensions to it can only be "Work Smarter".
 So, any program promising you that you will make money online when you are sleeping will only raise your hope and dash it after shedding your hard earned money to buy into the program and you end up disappointed. Even autopilot marketing requires a lot of time to set up before you leave it on auto or have you ever seen a pilot who lifted his plane from rest on autopilot?

YEAH! YOU WANNA MAKE MONEY ONLINE

Merry Xmas everyone!
Hope you had enough "jollifications" going for you? 
For me, I spent the time turning down all invitations for merriment, putting on my thinking cap and putting together what I did that made me $2000 within two months of donating a stipend to charity.
Why did I have to do that? The times are spelling some ominous turn of events for 2015 and if you dont do something about it fast and if you leave yourself at the mercies of the merciless rulers we had to grapple with in this country then you will have yourself to blame.
