Affiliate Marketing: More ways to market products online
Posted by johndilbeck on Thursday, May 18 2006 at 1:55 PM
Earlier in the month, on John Dilbeck and Friends, I recommended LinkScout, and it is becoming one of the central hubs of my affiliate marketing efforts. I upgraded to the pro version and I'm already seeing some results. Not bad for such a small investment.
Today, I want to recommend a new form of advertising I've adopted at John Dilbeck and Friends and which I'll be rolling out to many of my other sites over the coming weeks.
I'm also going to recommend another free marketing portal to you.
First, let's talk a moment about advertising space on your websites, blogs, forums, and other online real estate.
I'm a huge fan of Google Adsense, and I'm happy that it is paying my overhead and making some profit for me. But, Adsense may not be the best advertising method for every site or even for a few pages on a site.
I've been watching Affiliate Power Ads for several months and today I implemented their ads on the top of every page on John Dilbeck and Friends. I'll be adding them to several of my Internet marketing and affiliate marketing sites over the next few weeks.
Why? Because Adsense pays only a few cents per click and my visitors have to leave my site. Affiliate Power Ads markets products from ClickBank and several other affiliate programs. Some pay 50% or more of the selling price to the affiliate (me, and you, if you want). Some of the products are membership sites that pay monthly residuals. So, instead of earning a few cents and losing a visitor, I stand to earn hundreds of dollars and there is no visitor loss, because the ads open in a new page.
Affiliate Power Ads should be okay to use on the same page with Adsense ads, because they are not contextual, but I don't think I want to use them on the same page, anyway.
I've been hesitant to use the Affiliate Power Ads on my sites because I'm hesitant to recommend many of the products being sold through ClickBank. Some of their products are outstanding, some are garbage, and some can get you in trouble if you don't do your own individual research before using them.
I've decided that I can't police everyone's buying habits, so a general Buyer Beware should suffice. Do your homework before you pay good money for any ad that says you can get rich with no effort if you buy their product. It just ain't a'gonna happen!
Now that I've made my peace with advertising products through ClickBank, I want to recommend another free portal: CB-Top. This free portal offers over 10,000 products through ClickBank and several other affiliate programs. You can get a free site for yourself, and, after you update your affiliate links, you will earn good money for every product or service bought through your portal.
The check I received from ClickBank today is more than enough to upgrade my CB-Top portal to a pro version. You only have to sell one or two products a month through your portal to earn a profit. Sell more, and it becomes another income stream.
I'm working on several other products I'll be recommending to you in the next few days.
There are two keys to earning a profit with affiliate marketing:
1. Sell good products (yours or the merchant for which you advertise)
2. Send enough visitors to your site.
By centralizing your affiliate marketing through LinkScout (or a similar service of your choice), driving traffic to that portal, and letting that site send visitors to your marketing sites, such as CB-Top, you will start earning a profit.
There are other tools that come with LinkScout and CB-Top, such as banner and URL rotators, but I'll talk about them another day.
So, how do you get visitors to your portals? I use a variety of methods, including blogging, linking from my sites and forums, and I'm starting to use more traffic exchanges, such as Traffic Syndicator 25.
I've been testing several traffic exchanges, and, so far, TS25 is one of my favorites. While I'm reading my email, working on websites, and blogging, I keep my TS25 surfing window open and click on the next site when I have a spare moment. When you are online as much as I am, you can earn lots of visitor credits as you go, without much extra effort. Since I want to get all the value I can from this exchange, I upgraded to a pro account. You can build traffic with a free account, but it is more efficient with a paid upgraded account.
I've done my homework and I've read the opinions that the sites I describe here range from useless to outstanding. My opinion is somewhere in the middle, tending to the very useful area of the scale. So, now, I'm testing them to see how they perform. With more data, I don't have to rely on opinions and hunches.
As long as they earn a profit, I'll continue with them.

So that's why you shouldn't hesitate to purchase ZipSense and Claim a Got-Zip Territory ASAP.
WAIT, I just added one more Amazing Bonus.. You can use The Coupon Code you'll receive for Got-Zip up to 3 Times. The Only Catch... Each time has to be a different subscription type. (1 ZipCode, 1 County, 1 State)
I've claimed my Zip Code and home county. Have you?

Are you a lensmaster?
Posted by johndilbeck on Saturday, December 17 2005 at 3:12 AM
Here's why you should consider becoming one.
Squidoo opened their public beta testing a few days ago, and during this period, you can become a lensmaster and claim up to 20 lenses of your very own.
What's a lens?
Basically, it's an outpointing web page on a particular topic. What topic? That's up to you. What do you know about and love to write about. See if the topic is available. If not, find another page name and try again.
Write about yourself, your business, your hobby, the organization for which you volunteer, your family, your town or community. Write about what interests you.
This is a free service, and you may even make some money with your lenses. Now, the main money-making module is Amazon.com and you can sell any of the products Amazon sells from your lens.
There is full information about how the commission cooperative splits the commissions on the site.
After the beta period is over, you'll be able to claim as many lenses as you want. However, remember that frequency of updating your lens may possibly be one of the criteria that determines the lens rank, so you may not want more than you can comfortably handle.
Yes, this is a beta period and there have been some glitches. I've lost some descriptions as I was writing them, and now and then I lose contact with the system, but it has been remarkably easy to use, overall.
I've claimed and published my limit of lenses during the beta test. If you want, you can visit any of my 20 lenses:

Over 200 businesses registered in less than a month
Posted by johndilbeck on Sunday, November 27 2005 at 6:34 AM
Nice Offers, which was introduced on October 31, 2005, has registered over 200 businesses in less than its first month of operation.
During this first month, several new features were added to make it easier to find coupons for the products and services you want.
You can select from online offers, offline offers, or both.
If you are looking for local offers, you can search by country, state, and/or city.
There are still some bugs to be worked out in the search, but it's performing better than it did at introduction. Bugs are being squashed and features are being introduced.
If you have a business that sells products or services (what else is there?), you can register your business for free. Create as many, or as few, special offers as you like. Set your own terms, restrictions, and expiration dates.
You pay only when a coupon is redeemed.
And, to top it off, you set the price of the bounty you will pay when each coupon is redeemed. Some merchants set bounties of only a dollar, and others set bounties of a hundred dollars or more. It all depends upon your business and how much a new customer is worth to you.
Special offers need not be only for new customers, either. You can reward your existing customers, too.
While it is obvious that we're still in the chicken-and-the-egg stage, this is a fast growing service and already has coupons for special offers from businesses around the world. Many more offers will be introduced as we go forward.
If you are looking for a fundraising opportunity for your non-profit, school, or church, we're ready to help you, too.
Merchants, register your business and create your own special offer coupons. Advertise for free and pay only for results.
Shoppers, for money-saving coupons, go to: Nice Offers.
To learn about new offers, visit SyndicateYourAd.com.
