This kid is a total scam king, He charges about 4000 bucks to give you a web page and a few tips on how to make money online. Everything sounds so pretty an easy but its not. What you are basically selling are credit cards. You will get paid for approval according to them and not get cheated. He is like the middle man between the credit card companies and you. He tells you that the best way to advertise your webpage is google adwords which is totally false. He tells you that you will only have to pay about 5 to 25 cents per clic and that you will see crazy amounts of money coming withing the next few weeks. Totally false, google charges about $5.00+ per click or sometimes more if you want to be in the 1st page for this keyword and related keywords. There is also no way to see if you are making any sales right away because since they are the middle man they can intercept them and take weeks for them to post them in your account so forget about twitching your marketing campaigns if you see they are not working because you cant see anything . If you make money or not is not important to them because most people dont. As long as you sign the contract you are doomed. I remember the guy dave gilmore or whatever his name is: “Anthony made $100,000 by only spending $200 in advertising with Google”. Not true

How to do affiliate marketing for really unfamilliar beginners.?

Hello everyone! I am a 19 year old female interested in affiliate marketing. Now, I am completely new to this and don’t know much about it at all and I do not have a website or a blog. I have so much spare time on my hands so I figured why not use it to make extra income from the internet! I was thinking of using Ebay to sell affiliate products but not sure if this is allowed. I really don’t know where to start or what I need to have in order to get started, but I do know there are a few scams out there. I was hoping any affiliate marketers or anyone with experience could help me out. Thanks guys!

Here is a very basic plan to get started…

1. Pick a product. Choose a physical product from commission junction, clickbank, or an independent affiliate program from a directory like the one below.

2. Setup either a domain with the product name, or a free blog at wordpress.com or blogger.com to have something to link to. You can just buy a domain name with your own hosting and redirect to the affiliate product with your link. Write 1 ‘presell’ page that explains the benefits of the product with multiple buttons/links with your affiliate link to the product home page.

3. Write articles with your product keywords in the titles and also listed 3-5 times throughout each aritcle and point the links to your domain or blog. For a beginner article marketing works well. So write 3-5 articles about the product, an overview if your not familiar with the product in a review style format. Submit to the major article directories like ezinearticles, goarticles, articlesbase, squidoo, and hubpages and place links at the bottom of the article with a call to action to your domain or blog.

4. Signup at some social bookmarking sites and then social bookmark your articles AND your blog.

5. Repeat the above steps with another product

Do that on a consistent basis and you’ll be making money in no time. Good luck.

Can people really make a living as an Affiliate marketer?

I have seen dozens of programs being sold on the internet that claim they will show you how to make a six figure income from affiliate marketing. Are any of these programs for real, and if so which ones? Or, are they all scams that make money by selling their product to lazy, gullible people who think they can make money while they sit at home and do nothing?

rel323 answers:

Yes, some people do but only people who are willing to put a great deal of time into it and genuine effort. There are a lot of scams out there but there are also some legitimate ones. SFI is a very legit program and is even listed with the Better Business Bureau. However, with them, you only make residual income as an EA…For more info on them go to below website

Wealthy Affiliate and internet affiliate marketing. is it worth it?

Can you actually make any money from it? Is the money that you pay for Wealthy Affiliate worth it? Are you an Affilate marketer, if so do you make any kind of decent income from it? If you have any experience please share… i don’t want anyone telling me WA is a scam, unless you joined it and know for sure, i am a new member and i don’t think it is a scam, i think you just need to invest alot of time and effort into it. What do you think?

I’m an affiliate marketer and I make about $100 per day, it is ok money. There are some guys out there that make $1000 per day from affiliate marketing. It just requires a lot of time and patience. What is hard is getting your website to that #1 spot on the Google search. But once you do, you hit the jackpot. Here are some examples of my websites that are just blogs.

As you can see, you dont even need to pay for a real website, you can just use free websites such as Blogger to promote your product. There are a lot of free training videos out there on affiliate marketing, I would search for them frist before doing Wealthy Affiliate.

i need help with affiliate/internet marketing!?

okay, so i’m 20 years old and struggling SO bad with money. I’m not currently in school because i have been undecided. Well about 6 months ago i ran into all the scams and schemes to making money online. i bought two programs that were complete crap. With more money going down the drain i felt extremely discouraged by the idea of making money over the internet. But i know that this is what i want to do, and if others are doing it..why can’t i? So my question is, does anyone know anywhere that can teach me the RIGHT WAY to make money online through affiliate marketing without wasting money? I wish i could go to classes to learn this stuff and know that i am doing it right, but the only classes i found costs money & during these times i have to save up just to reach 100 dollars. I’m a fast learner, as long as i know i’m learning the right way and not just buying someone elses program that they are using to put money in their pocket. I also wish i could partner up with someone who knows what they are doing, But paying for someones time in this business is impossible on my budget. anyways, any information would help. THANKS!

Hey, I can feel your pain. 22 years old, full time student, have to do a lot of traveling. I have been researching the whole online job for years now. Learn from my experience Please!
I have been working with eBay and Amazon for years now but the economy is really hurting my business.
There are legit ways to make money online. It has taken me a lot of research to find this out. I have been doing the online ‘surveys’ for a couple years now. You just have to be organized and cancel something if its a trial.
Other than the surveys I have only found one opportunity that worked for me. I actually understand the whole process now of how to make money online. Please feel free to check out the links I will include. Good luck and always do your research!!
