Have you ever seen one of those "plans" or "programs" called something like "Affiliate Marketing Riches" or "Generate Millions On Squidoo" and read their sales pages?
Did you ever acquire one? I have. Let me ask you if you ever made any cash after buying one of these? I have.
But mostly I didn't.
It's was for the reason that at first I was too new to do anything they told me to do.
The first one I purchased was called something like "Immediate Wealth Overnight - Free Websight!" They took my initial cash and then I got my earliest training.
They said to me to go find hosting at a specific provider so that my FREE site was now $47 plus the $100 in hosting fees plus a domain name for a year.
That WAS a pretty good deal for hosting and a domain name for a year but I had NO IDEA what to do with it!
After a few days I asked for my cash back!
I lost the domain name and the money for that AND the original company in no way gave me my $47 back and went out of business. That was my opening to Internet Marketing.
I moved on, undisappointed, and ultimately learned the "secrets" to affiliate marketing and guess what I discovered? There are no secrets! There is only that which you don't realize yet!
So, after that narrative, I am going to give you a hyper-simplified plan for successful affiliate marketing that you can do AND it won't cost you over $50 bucks - EVER! If that.
Not only that, but you will likely see some cash out of this soon, and if you don't, you can start all over, as many times as you need to, to find it right, and you'll In no way HAVE to pay any more money.
How do I know? I did it! More than once.
So here is the plan.
One - Find a good product on Clickbank. Make a list of the top three best sellers in each category - pick from that. Note, avoid the Internet Marketing categories at first. Most of your customers will know more about internet marketing than you do if you are just getting started.
Two - obtain a FREE Squidoo site. They call them "lenses."
Three - Pick a FREE Domain Name.
Four - Now populate your site (lens) will all things "make your own solar panels" (or whatever product you choose) related info. Do your best. Minimal works.
Usually, the best tool is the simplest tool. Witness the hammer.
Build sure to put your affiliate links in the copy. When people click on the links a certain percentage will purchase!
It really is that straightforward. Now go get started!
