Yeah. I am getting Older..and so I reflect on the projects that took off, and those that were pinched by others, whereas some… did make a killing and forget that I did…and past is the past.

Money is a honey…but so is much an honest living.

So these keywords are a pickup on the services..and hey… it might just work

Who says there is no such thing as a free lunch? There are means to get free links and traffic to get you started.

1) Use the Text Link Ads

You are given $100 in free links. So plan ahead what link you want to utilise and anchor text to be placed. Note that alot of affiliate programs don’t allow CPC bidding so you want people to come to YOUR SITE and keep on coming.Words like free and here etc are a NO-NO. Make sure your text fits into their theme and stand out, so people will venture there. A deep link is always appreciated.

$100 would set you off to be placed on about 8-12 spots.Some may be site wide, but avoid those blogspots and low traffic. What you want is to convert those clicks to sales. You have 30 days to get that done.

2) Bidvertiser

You can be their Publisher to earn some extra cash first or their Advertiser.

By being an Advertiser, you are given $20 in free clicks. Yep. FREE $20 in traffic. But it’s a hit and miss as their traffic is abit of undesirable. Set your dermographics properly to target programs you want to convert to the highest element, like Hosting.Or something they can get for free, compliments of you.

3) Yahoo!

Forget yahoo! They are a rip off and you get rubbish traffic!

4) Adbrite

I’m giving away some next to nothing text links.
For ONE DOLLAR, I’m giving you the option to place ads on my Geeks’ Zone Skyscraper for 31 days. That’s a members special and you need to enter the word ‘azrin’ as your key. ONE DOLLAR. That’s all to it.

According to my last stats, 30 days will bring you about 92 visitors and if you wish, you can request to have a skyscraper banner instead. Ask for details.

Reason I don’t provide you with Adsense codes, mainly because there aren’t any! Nothing.

I could however provide you with the PENNY SAVER code for Hostgator which reduces the first month fee to one cent. I will even register your domain for you if you wish, with privacy.

More to come….

Having a foresight is a bliss, especially if you can foretell what the business plan you have is going to work or not. However, having said that, statistics show that 98% of the business planned out does not work as it should and out of that, 0.001% gets a second chance and beat the crap out of the entire business model and become like Bill Gates or Yahoo!

Being in affiliated programs, you have to bet on which is going to pay you well. Is it thru volume or thru the per sale basis, or on the per click basis. Some offer even per call or per action basis as like what some affiliate programs that are run by Commission Junction.

Yes, Gambling sites pays the best. Book Makers aka Bookie , sites like Labrokes, Coral , William Hill pays an average of £30+ per sign up plus a 1% fee on the bets placed. A fellow downline of mine took in over £192 Million over the 2 month period of the World Cup just from the Chinese Community in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong and China alone. Since the crackdown of Illegal Bookies by the countries involved, people turned to agents like him to take bets.

However,some would not go that way.Ever,due to religious or personal ethics. That is alot of money for just two months seasonal work. That simple you think? NOPE!

It takes alot of networking, knowing people, discreet advertising and not getting caught is the issue in these gaming communities. Gambling is prohibited in alot of states, as in countries, so it’s always been censored and what nots.

Another field that pays great on the EPC are like Foreign Exchange (FOREX) and Hedge Funding like CFD or Bet Spreading against the stock market indices.It’s very risky to the customer too, and these agents pay about £200 PER SIGN UP! Yes, these affiliate program pays £200 per customer who funds about $300 or so and plays on the markets. Similar payouts are given by stock broking companies too.

As such, you should plan ahead. And a great business gameplan it must. Till next issue.
