9 Quick Tips For New Affiliate Marketers

9 Quick Tips For New Affiliate Marketers

Here are 9 quick tips to help guide you along the road to becoming a successful affiliate marketer


1. Take Your Time: When your new to something it's best to start off slowly, this is very important with affiliate marketing. If your not careful you can quickly become bored, or out of pocket by trying to go too fast. It takes time to learn anything new, so remember that and give it time.


2. Spend Very Little Money: There are always products that promise you millions, truth is almost NONE work without a lot of hard work. New products come out weekly,  and as much as they promise you, always remember: Why would someone thats supposedly made millions of dollars want you to buy their product for $19.99 or whatever the price.Why are they sharing their big idea that has made them millions, why dont they just keep on making millions!?.I think you know why..Almost everything you will need when starting out is available for free on the internet. Spend as little money as possible.

3. Dont Start Too Many Projects At Once: This is a big mistake, starting too many projects at once will divide your time and energy in too many different directions. Too many projects will make you spread yourself to thin. Needless to say, you will get bogged down very quickly. All the projects or websites will suffer as a result. Try to start one project or website at a time, give it all your time, energy, and creativity. If it doesnt work after a few months or a year move on to the next project. Or if you know you could of done things better, spent more time on it, put more into it and make it happen.

4. Do What You Love To Write Or Talk About: If you dont choose something you love to do or talk about, a real passion of yours, your project or website will become a choir that you wont want to do. If you love what you do, you will have much more energy and enthusiasm about putting the time into your work. Choose what you love and it wont seem like your actually working because you love it.

5. Remember It Takes Time Dont Run Before You Can Walk: We all want quick results, but you need to look at affiliate marketing in the same way as you would look at learning to drive. When you had your first few lessons..How good were you? Probably terrible, i know i was. Now compare those first few lessons to how good you are at driving today, after years of driving. Maybe you have picked up a few bad habits, we all do. But your driving knowledge and experience is so much greater then it was when you had those first few lessons all that time ago. You've learnt so much it's unbeleivable. This is exactly the same with affiliate marketing.

6. Dont Expect Miracles Without Hard Work: No matter what anyone tells you, it is very rare for someone to find a huge stack of cash on the internet without doing any hard work, or spending a good deal of money. Even the guy that made the million dollar homepage had to spend quite a lot of money. Everything requires either a lot of work, a fair amount of money. Or a good bit of both. Don't expect miracles without doing much, and don't moan when not much happens if your not doing much to make it happen!


7. Try Something Different: If you never try it, you'll never know. Something different will either work or it wont. It's always good to sit down and think about doing something that hasn't been done already.


8. Read As Much As You Can: The chances are that the answer to any questions you may have are on the internet already. Places like forums hold a huge amount of useful information for affiliate marketers. The internet is also a graveyard for many affiliate marketers that failed. You can learn a lot from reading where they went wrong, and make sure you dont make the same mistakes. This also applies to any projects your thinking of doing. Somebody might have already tried it and come accross problems that your yet to encounter. Reading can learn you alot, and also save you much time and money.

9. Expect To Put Some Work In: The amount of new affiliates who give up and moan about not getting anywhere, and not making any money must be in the millions worldwide. But how many of them really put a lot of work in? Most new affiliates have become affiliates in the first place because of all the things they read about Mr X becoming rich overnight from affiliate marketing. So they become affiliates under the mindset that it's really easy and they'll be making millions of dollars before the week is out, without having to lift a finger. Nothing could be further from the truth. So always expect to put some hard work in. It takes a lot of work, or a lot of money. In most cases both, and dont let anyone tell you otherwise. Good Luck!

Cash Crate Money

There are many different ways that you can make money online, from promoting a company's product, to buying a good camera and selling the pictures you take on various websites that specialise in that field. Not to mention Ebay and Amazon, and the list goes on and on and on.

Completing Free Offers With CashCrate - Check out the website


Today i want to talk about making money online by completing free offers and competitions. This can be a very easy way to make extra money online because all you have to do is enter free offers and competitions and get paid for it, simple as that. There are a few company's out there, but the one that stands out from the rest is CashCrate.


There are a lot of Internet websites that offer to pay you real money for completing free offers, but many are not reliable, with members complaining of not being paid and very poor support. This is because most of these websites are run by "One man", needless to say, things will always be in slow motion when you have to wait a week for a reply to your email, or even payment.

This is where CashCrate are very different, they are an actual company with experienced staff ready to deal with any questions or problems you may have instantly. With almost 1 million members and growing daily, CashCrate are very reliable with the things that matter the most - Support and Payment! If you look on the CashCrate forum, Yes they even have a forum, you will see that everyone gets paid on time and in full. Some members don't have monthly payments, which is your own preference, instead they let their CashCrate balance build up, and over time they have a few thousand dollars in their account ready to be withdrawn whenever they want it.

CashCrate is good if you don't want to have to spend hours every night with affiliate marketing, but you just want to make some easy money by just going to one website (CashCrate), signing in, and completing a few offers a night. CashCrate also have a great referral system which offers generous lifetime commissions for new Cashcraters that signed up through you. One good way to get referrals is to join forums (including the CashCrate forum) and putting your link in as your signature.

Can you afford not to join CashCrate..I thought not - Go do it now!

Free Domain Name For Your Website

Free Domain Name For Your Website From Co.cc


OK, so you have your Blogspot blog, which you have acquired for free, but you don't like it having the extension on the end like, .blogspot. This is where a free domain name can really help.

If you are just starting out in the world wide web of websites and blogs i would always recommend spending as little money as possible, or preferably no money at all. When you get a free blogspot blog it has to come with the .blogspot extension at the end, but you are allowed to change it. But the price of a domain, although not all that much does have to be renewed on a year or two year basis, this is why in some ways a free domain name can make sense, specially if you do not want to spend any money at all.

There are many websites that claim to give you a free domain name, but if you read their terms and conditions there are a lot of holes attached to the free domain name, things that you would rather do without, such as, the website that supplies you with the free domain can advertise products and services on your website or blog once set up. Also the free domain suppliers can limit what type of website or blog subject you choose to write about. Sometimes quite dramatically.

But rest assured, there is one company that does not have any of these holes. Co.cc offers you two free domain names for absolutely free, with no strings attached. This gives you the opportunity to have a free domain for your website or blog and never have to worry about any yearly costs, or a company that say you have broken the rules and take the domain name back after you have put loads of hard work into developing your website.

Co.cc is the best place for free domains, they actually give you two. I have been very impressed with them and they come highly recommended for providing a great service and trouble free domains.

Check below to see if your desired free domain name is still available. Surprisingly there are some great domain names still available. Grab yours today.

5 Tips For More Traffic To Your Website


We all want more visitors to our websites and blogs, more visitors, more sales, more clicks, more of whatever it is your targeting. There are many ways to achieve this. Here are 5 quick tips for attracting more traffic to your site.

1. Yahoo Answers. This is a great way to get visitors to your website, by answering questions and being able to add your link at the bottom of your answers. Yahoo Answers is a valuable way to create back links to your website and get more visitors.

2. Commenting on other peoples blogs. Commenting on popular blogs does bring more visitors to your website. On most blogs they give you the chance to comment and leave your link back to your website. This is especially good if you run a blog that is the same subject as the one your leaving a comment on. This way you are getting more targeted visitors to your website.

3. I was going to write - Add your blog to directory's and search engines, but in my opinion there is no need to do this, specially not to search engines. The reason is that if you are writing good content on your site almost all the search engines will pick this up automatically, you do not need to submit your site, believe me, if your writing good content they will find you and add you to their results. Almost all the search engines do this, the only two that don't are Lycos and MSN. All the rest do.

4. Be active On Forums. This can bring some good traffic to your website. If you are a regular on say 5 of the top forums that are related to your blog or website subject people will check out your signature ( the links back to your sites that your allowed to have under every thread or reply you make on the forum ). I always try to start a few fresh threads or reply to other threads at least once a week.

5. Social Networking. Every time you write some interesting content you should submit it to places like Digg, Stumbleupon, and Propeller. This can bring quite a lot of traffic if you know how to advertise your story properly in terms of writing a catchy title and intriguing description that makes people want to know more. And because Social Networking websites mostly have good credibility and page rank, you are found in the search engines more frequently when you submit your story's to them.

So there you have it, 5 quick tips for bringing more visitors to your website. The most important one out of the 5 tips in my opinion is number 3. Trust me when i say this, if you write good original content you are onto a winner. I have a little boxing and self defense blog that i post to maybe twice a week. I have never added this blog to many places in terms of directory's or trying to get back links, but it gets many people visiting daily, this is because i write original content on this blog, and because of this that blog gets people linking to it because they can see the content is original and updated regularly. When you have good content webmasters will want to link to it, even use it as an RSS feed on their website.

Building Traffic With Yahoo Answers

Building Traffic With Yahoo Answers

For those of you that don't know about Yahoo Answers it's basically a place where people ask questions in the hope for the right answer from a fellow user, possibly you. If you have a question you want answered post it on Yahoo Answers and you will get responses from other Yahoo Answers members, all of them giving you there own answer to your question, it's up to you which one you feel is correct.

So how can you build traffic with Yahoo Answers?

Very easily. When you answer a question on Yahoo answers you get the chance to post a link at the bottom of your answer, this link has to be relevant to the subject your answering the question on, if it's not your account will be suspended. Be warned Yahoo are very strict with this. So if you have a make money online website as your chosen link, but your answering a question about Basketball your Yahoo Answers account will be suspended.

Respect this rule and you can get many visitors from Yahoo Answers. This service also has a points system, so if your answers to questions are correct and very informative, also very well written, your points will rise and people will click your links much more. You will start to establish yourself as a "Top Contributor", and Yahoo Answers members will start to gain trust in you and want to check out your posted link, specially because it's relevant to the subject in question.

Yahoo Answers is not only good for generating some traffic to your website or blog from other Yahoo answers members and search engines, but also for backlinks to your site. Even if you answer just 1 question a week which is well written and correct, you are giving yourself more opportunity's for visitors, which in turn will lead to more subscribers, more sales, more clicks, whatever your site is targeting. Goodluck!

High Paying Google Adsense Keywords

High Paying Google Adsense Keywords

If you are using Google Adsense on your website but have chosen a website topic which only pays 1-10 cents per click things can be pretty slow going. It's like me with my UFO website, it's a great site which gets many visitors and a fair amount of Adsense clicks. But Adsense clicks for UFO related subjects are very low, as low as 1 cent, which isn't even 1 pence per click in GBP.

So then, if there are keywords and website subjects that are as low as 1 cent per click, surely there must be some on the other end of the spectrum...Of course there are. Here are some high paying Google Adsense Keywords for you to consider.

The first high paying Adsense Keyword is the word "Adsense" itself. Although Cost Per Click (CPC) can differ, the average CPC for the word Adsense is $17 Dollars per click! The highest ever Cost Per Click ever recorded for the word Adsense was $190 Dollars! It's actually hard to believe, but it is true.

The second set of high paying Google Adsense Keywords is anything to do with the huge company called AT&T. From "at and t phones", "at and t mobiles", "at t com", "at and t", "att call conference", "att prepaid wireless", "att prepaid". The list is long, some of these keywords on average can be as high as $29 Dollars per click, averaging around $16 Dollars per click. The highest ever recorded CPC for anything AT&T was $54 Dollars per click! This would be perfect if you had a website that promoted AT&T products and services.


The last high paying keyword for today is quite a rare one, but can earn you a huge amount per click. The keyword is "Benchmark lending". If you have a website or blog related to this type of subject you can get as much as $40 Dollars per click. The highest ever recorded CPC for the keyword "Benchmark lending" was a massive $262 Dollars per click! A keyword well worth considering if you have the right website.

More high paying Google Adsense keywords include the term: "Auto insurance quotes", with a click value of $20 Dollars on average, with the highest CPC being $32 Dollars. This is a great term to target if you have an auto related site. The same goes for the keyword, "auto insurances", this keyword pays out $15 Dollars per click, with the a high CPC of $35 Dollars. Good money can be made with just 5 - 10 clicks a day!

Money By Writing Articles

Money By Writing Articles

There are many ways to make money by writing articles, from writing them for someone else and getting paid for it, or, the way i want to talk about, writing them to make your own sales as an affiliate.

If you have a website or blog that you use to make affiliate sales for the products you promote, then hopefully you already know the power of making affiliate sales by writing articles. This method has been tossed to the side in many ways because of all the new money making techniques that are now out there, but article writing is still one of the most effective ways to make affiliate sales. And not just affiliate sales, article writing can even be used to attract more visitors to your site, make you more leads, get more registered users, AdSense clicks, the list is long, and all the reasons of writing articles result in one thing, you making more money, making the hard work well worth it.

So, as an example. I will use my weight loss website http://www.slimmersize.com/. This website promotes weight loss products and also has AdSense on it. I write articles for this website related to weight loss, but for different category's of weight loss, depending on what page i want to link my article to. So, if i want to link an article to my "exercise sites reviewed page", i will write an article related to workout guides and exercise sites, this way you are giving the reader exactly what they are looking for and their much more likely to click any links you have out in the article. The article reader was looking for this subject or they wouldn't of found and clicked on my article in the search engines. The best thing is the article links to the same subject the reader was looking for, but on a nicer website with much more information then one article. My chances of getting sales from this method are pretty high.


Articles can take some time to write, and many people prefer easier ways to get sales, but articles can bring you continuous sales because once written, there always "out there" somewhere on the Internet with links back to your web pages, potentially making you sales months after you wrote them. Articles also shoot to the top of the search engines if written correctly, targeting your desired keywords. Many article submission sites are ranked pretty high - Page rank 6 etc, so you also get free 1 way links to your website from a page rank 6 website, which is another bonus.


Making money by writing articles is well worth the time and effort.

How To Add Adsense Above Your Post Title In Blogger


This is a very easy thing to do with Blogger. Adding Adsense above the title of each post is known to get you more clicks and make you more money. This is because the Adsense is in prime position, right in the face of the visitor. Adding Adsense to this position in blogger will make it visible above every post you make, and it only needs to be added once.





In the image above you will see two numbers, 1 and 2. Im presuming you are already a member of Google Adsense and know how to generate an Adsense code to paste into blogger, never use the "Add Adsense" tab supplied by Blogger, always go into your Adsense account and make your Adsense code manually, this way you can add a channel so you can track the performance of your Adsense Ad on your site or blog.

An example is this blog http://cashsearcher.blogspot.com/, for my channel name i have chosen "make money blog", this way i can keep an eye on my statistics, from page impressions, to which Adsense Ads are perfoming best on my blog.

So then, make your desired Adsense Ad in terms of size, colour etc. I have chosen a thin link line above my posts, you can choose whatever you think looks best for your site. When you have made your Adsense Ad and have copied the Adsense code, go to your Layout, Page Elements, go to number "1" in the image above and make a new "Add HTML or Java Script" widget. Paste your Adsense code into this new widget and press save. Once you have pressed save, press and hold your mouse's left click button and drag the widget to the desired location, in this case it's above the "blog Posts" box, you will see that Blogger will automatically make a place for your new widget. Press save, then view your blog and that should be it.

Give your new Adsense Ad a few minutes to show up, don't panic if you view your blog and nothing is there, this is normal, it can take quite a few minutes to show up, if you have followed the steps correctly it will show up.

Heres a quick round up of what to do.

1. Go to your Adsense account, make your new code.

2. Make a new " Add HTML or Javascript" widget in Number "1" above - See Pic

3. Paste the Adsense Code into your new widget > Click save.

3. Click and drag the new Adsense widget to the top of "Blog Posts" Number "2" See Pic > Press Save.

4. Give it some time to show up.

5. Admire your new Adsense and wait for clicks!

Recently i have been looking for free website templates, there are some great sites out there that supply many free templates free of charge. I needed a basic web template for a little website im starting. But what i noticed while i was looking for free templates was people that are using RSS feeds to display the free websites on their site or blog.

This is a good way to get some natural traffic from google. I was searching for a specific free website template's name, so when i typed this in on google the search results that were on the first page were, the main site that actually made the template, then after that the rest were all websites that had just used the RSS feeds from the makers website. The reason all these search results are coming up is basically because of the titles and tags the people copying the RSS feed are using. Using the title and tag of the name of the free website template.

This is a great way to get more visitors to your website or blog from search engines, if you have Adsense you increase your chances of getting more clicks using this method, as im sure the people copying the feed would confirm.

A good idea to capitalise on this would be to get a few template names, from website template's, blogger or wordpress themes, go to Google Keyword Tool and type in the names and see how many times their getting searched for each month, find the ones that are being searched for a lot each month, but have low advertiser competition, (single template names should be low in competition) and put the popular ones on your website or blog.


Here is a popular blogger theme called curved, which is the theme used on this blog. This is a nice template to work with, the curves and colours are nice and simple, the title of each post is in a smart rounded header with the day and date of when the post was written. All in all a great template which can be used for many blog or website subjects. Download Below.
