A New Free Traffic Source and an Update

I'm still working hard towards my $1500 goal and I've realized a couple of things. 1. I love researching and setting up niche blogs. I enjoy it much more than actual article writing and it has a longer and higher income potential. 2. I still enjoy article writing, but I hope to suppliment my full time income with more niche blogging than flat fee article writing. The good thing is that I can work on my niche ...

The Niche Blogger Review – 10 Months Later

I thought that you guys might be wondering how my niche blogging is going along, so I decided to write a Niche Blogger Review to show you how that's been going for me this year.

Switching to Infolinks Gets Results

Hello all. I have been busy writing my little fingers off here lately and there are several new things that I would like to share with you. As you may know, I have a whole network of blogs now and I'm always looking for new ways to monetize them. For a while, I ran Kontera on a couple of these sites. Kontera shows ads as text links inside your blog posts. After never quite reaching a ...

Why do Women Blog? For the perks, of course!

Women blog for a lot of different reasons - to make money, to fill the time, to teach others, to have a creative outlet or even for the perks. Wait. What's this about perks?

Are Cyberhub Article Writers Sexist?

One of the yucky parts of creating your own websites is the process of getting backlinks. An easy way to do this is article marketing. Create articles about your website subject, include links back to your website and submit them to article directories. Although I do write for a living, sometimes it's easier to outsource these types of articles so that I can focus my time on tasks that no one can do but me. Usually, ...

IM Report Card and Ninja Style

Hi there people. I'm a little stunned right now because my husband just spotted a huge snake right outside our front door on the porch. He nearly stepped on it when he was taking out the trash. Fortunately, it's only a grass snake, but startling none the less. I've been busy working away on my goal of saving $1500 by the end of the year and so far so good! I had a very nice surprise in ...

Affiliate Marketing – My Mega Master Plan

admin affiliate marketing

I’ve been hatching a plan. It goes a little something like this:

Combine the vast knowledge that I have learned from The Niche Blogger along with the free marketing methods I have learned from Pot Pie Girl with the crazy awesome techniques that I learned from Google Sniper and create a mega-marketing-wonder-plan.

I have decided to work with a clickbank product since the commissions that you can earn there are so high. I have chosen one that has to do with alternative energy because it is an area that I am interested in, as my husband and I are planning on making our dream home a green home.

So far, I have created a windmill energy website, along with several Squidoo lenses (Windmill Power, Wind Power Turbines, Home Windmill Power, How to Build a Wind Turbine) and written some ezine articles and articles at Suite 101 to promote them. If you have never tried Squidoo, it can be pretty addicting. I’m still getting the hang of getting my lenses indexed and getting free traffic from Google. If you are a Squidoo member, please feel free to visit my lenses and leave comments…I would love some feedback!

Now, when will I stop with my little wind empire and move on to something else? Not yet. I began this whole campaign around May 5th and I’ve just started hitting heavy with the Squidoo stuff in the last couple of days. I have decided that I will continue making lenses and writing articles and working with this campaign in general until I have made 5 sales of this product.

At that point, I will choose another product and start all over. I think that once I reach 5 sales, I will be able to figure out what I’m doing right and what I’m doing wrong and then keep on going.

Where am I? Well, right now I have made 2 sales. Both of them to the same person! Both sales were on May 11, around 6:30 in the morning. One was for the original product – $31.85 and the other was for some other kind of sale on the back end – $45.73- BONUS!

When I work up and saw that there was $77.00 in my clickbank account, I became addicted to affiliate marketing on the spot. I am just going to keep working at it until I reach my goal – and then let it keep making me money while I keep working on other campaigns.

Just think how it could change your life if you got one $30.00 clickbank sale per day, 7 days a week. That’s an extra $210.00 per week – or an extra $840 per month.

Before you even ask, “Which one of these methods are the best” – let me tell you my take on all of this.

If you are just starting with blogging, affiliate marketing and such, The Niche Blogger is definitely the way to go. It takes you by the hand, step by step until you are making money.

If you’ve been doing affiliate marketing for a while and know a good bit about SEO and keyword research, then one of the other methods might be better for you.

The key, though, is learning all you can and then putting it into action until you make it work. That’s my plan and I’m sticking to it.
