Okay, it’s been a while since I posted anything but I’ve been extremely busy working on increasing my affiliate income. I have since joined a total of 5 CPA networks here they are :
Copeac, Neverblue, Hydra, Maxbounty, and Azoogle… Now I know that there are a lot of networks out there but realistically you don’t need to join so many, even 2-3 networks will have way more offers than you can handle so start small and just stick with a small handful and don’t get to caught up worrying about joining each and every network.
After joining with these networks I have had success and have actually started making money! I have some small campaigns currently that earn less than $10 a day each, and another larger one which earned me $100 this past week. Now I’ve only really begun to get my feet wet with CPA marketing as I am a firm believer in sticking to what works and scaling that up first before totally moving on to the next method of creating income.
I am also one of the few lucky students to be able to get private coaching from Saj P and Philip Mansour, this is a 10 week course and inside of it they expose some of the most secret underground tactics that super affiliates use to totally bank some serious cash online. I am only 2 weeks into it so far and the content is incredible, also being able to ask questions and get them answered in the webinars are absolutely priceless.
I know a lot of people are probably wondering what is so special about getting coaching? Well to tell you the truth when I use to purchase products online based around making money I was always hoping that I would find that one magic product that would make me rich. I’ve come to understand and realize that there is no such thing as a magic product so instead of learning courses and buying products I would do so with the intent that whatever it was that I was trying to learn I was using that as a way to get my education.
For instance if I was trying to get better at SEO I would pick up a good course on SEO, and if I wanted to learn more about PPC then I would naturally go and pick up a course on PPC and etc… I wish there really was a secret formula to make money online easily but the truth is you have to really educate yourself and get some real skills underneath your belt before you are able to generate money online…there is a learning curve but once you can get past that and grasp some strategies and put them into place then making money online isn’t really that difficult.
That’s the reason I am getting some of this elite cpa coaching because I believe that it’s just another step into improving myself and I believe in investing in myself as much as possible. I know that what I learn I can implement and use that towards achieving my goals of reaching total financial freedom, which I want to do for myself, my family, and close friends.
The good news is once I am done going through this course I will have some more content that I will be able to share with everyone and hopefully that will help others make some extra money online as well.
Well till next time, peace!

So I finally decided to take the plunge and fill out some applications to some CPA networks…
It seems as though promoting CPA offers are very popular at the moment and everyone is jumping on it.
The first two networks that I’ve chosen to join up with are NeverBlue and Azoogle, both of these are top notch companies and both have some of the best offers available alongside with some of the best affiliate managers to work with.
This is how I got accepted into the CPA networks so easily…
First I filled out an online application for each network, I then waited a hour and called their office directly..
When I got a hold of a representative I informed them that I recently had filled out an application online and was seeing if I could speed up the approval process since I was eager to begin promoting.
They then asked me simple questions as in how much experience I had and how I was planning to get traffic to their offers. This part is really simple just present yourself as someone who is experienced and say that you mainly do PPC or SEO to get traffic, the person on the end of the line is a normal person so being pleasant and having some humor will take you a long way.
These companies just want to know if your serious about promoting and that you have a little experience when it comes to marketing.
I basically got accepted into their networks in under 5 minutes after I phoned them, this was real easy and it’s not as hard as people make it out to be!
I plan on joining a couple other networks but for now I am loaded with so many great offers that I think I’m going to be cool working with these two for now.
I’ll keep you updated on my CPA progress!

So recently I was in preparation for a huge product launch by Saj P for his CPA course Zero Friction Marketing…
From the look of things this was going to be a very highly anticipated product and it was generating a huge buzz across the entire Internet Marketing scene, this meant that there was going to be a lot of competition and it was going to be hard to go heads up against the “Big” Boys and their huge lists.
I had about one week before launch day to get things in order so the first thing I did was purchase a domain name www.ZeroFrictionMarketingSite.com and try to do some fast SEO work to get it ranked.
This was going to be a difficult task because first off I didn’t have much time to get my site ranked up high enough since everyone else was already doing their working ranking their sites and believe me there were just a huge amount of competitors for this.
But I managed to do some serious backlinking from high PR sites and get my bookmarking in, also I created several squidoo lenses and hubpages that pointed to my site and several other things, this really boosted me in the searches real fast…
Can you believe that in 4-5 days I was ranked #1 on MSN and #2 and #3 for the product name?!? I was also second page on yahoo and page 4 on Google and climbing very fast everyday. Not too bad consider how fast I executed my SEO plan.
Now there were some serious heavy hitters on board you know the type that have like a 250k list… So trying to snag a piece of the profits through affiliate sales was going to be pretty hard. But I had my mind set because I knew this was going to be a profitable campaign.
Anyhow long story short here is a screen shot:
Not too bad for how fast I had to come up with the plan, this campaign is still going and it’s still generating sales but the buzz has died down. Also I’d like to mention that several people opted to go with the monthly repeat billing so I will continue to see affiliate commissions next month which is great!
So as you can see affiliate marketing isn’t as hard as most people make it out to be, you just have to find a product and stick to a gameplan and follow through with it. Everything else will fall into place… Well I’m back to work on a another one, laters!

Okay, so I’ve been busy for the past few weeks working hard on studying this incredible course that I was lucky to get my hands on.
Saj P the creator of Zero Friction Marketing let me have the opportunity to completely review his latest course and dissect it inside out…
All I can say is I am completely blown away, the content is unbelievable.
For those of you who don’t know who Saj P is he is the secret mastermind behind several of ClickBanks most popular products ever, I’m sure you’ve heard of Four Tier Annihilation, Affiliate Funnel System, The Site Rush, and Affiliate Payload.
I’ve gone through each and every course thoroughly and all I can say is the information in these manuals completely blow other products out of the water.
The latest course Zero Friction Marketing is based around CPA offers and how and where to do your advertising, everything is broken down into step by step videos with a total of 10hrs+ of pure content, no filler.
The videos show you behind the scenes and teaches you how to setup and launch your campaign, there is an extensive module on Myspace marketing and Media Buying and how to dominate on MSN’s PPC platform.
As you can see I’ve been busy doing my homework on this course and have been implementing some of the strategies that it teaches, let’s just say I’ve been a little more than glued to the computer screen for the past few weeks!
If you want a thorough review and more information be sure to check out the Zero Friction Marketing Review and Bonus.

Making money online can be a very confusing and frustrating thing to do if you don’t know where to begin. With so many get rich quick schemes that promise overnight riches the idea of simply buying a product or having a website that will do all the work for you while you sit back and push a button is extremely tempting.
I myself have fallen for the “Guru’s”, you know the guys online who started from nothing yet ended up having millions and knows all the secrets that nobody else does and is willing to share with you his proven method of making millions online, for a small fee of course.
Now don’t get me wrong, I know there are a handful of people on the Internet who genuinely believe that they can help you make money and want you to succeed, but there are plenty more who only care about turning a profit for themselves and the information they share is only bits and pieces of the entire puzzle of making money online, or just complete garbage.
When it truly comes down to it, the product or the service being sold isn’t nearly as important as the person who knows the marketing skills behind the product. With the right know how you can basically make money from any avenue online, any product, or any service just as long as you have the right knowledge of how to do so.
See most of the get rich quick schemes you see online won’t go into detail to teach you how to actually learn the set of skills that it takes to achieve any kind of income on the Internet. They keep you in the dark, they only tell you to follow commands as you go through the steps blindly and not really grasping how and why you are doing what you are doing.
As time progresses eventually you’ll become confused and frustrated and eventually give up and try to find the next best thing to make money, jumping from one thing to the next. This process can continue on for quite some time as it did for me, yet with every experience I realized that there were certain things that worked and certain things that didn’t.
I knew that I had to learn the “skill sets” that the real people online knew that they were using, I slowly put the pieces together and used what worked and discarded everything thing else that didn’t.
Instead of worrying about the money I knew I had to learn the skills first and then the money would eventually come.
Skills like market research and traffic generation and converting visitors to buyers is more than luck, there’s a science behind the entire process. I knew that investing time into learning how to apply these techniques would ultimately bring me the revenue that I was searching for online and help me build my online business one step at a time.
If your trying to make money online and haven’t seen any fantastic results I suggest investing some of your time into your own education and possibly taking a crash course on the basics of Internet Marketing, out of the everything I’ve tried online honestly nothing has been more worth the investment.

Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to let all my readers know whats going on since it’s been a while since I’ve updated my blog…
Very happy to say I just moved into my new place and am still very busy rearranging and cleaning! I felt like starting a new chapter in my life so moving into a new house was a great idea to get things started this year. I purchased everything brand new and am still waiting on my new couches to be delivered this Tuesday, got to get cable and Internet hooked up cause right now I’m using my aircard to do all my Internet work on.
It’s a great feeling to be able to be free to do what I want everyday and having the ability to still work and earn money is such a relief. Moving is a huge thing and it’s taken a lot of energy out of me just from decorating and choosing what kind of furniture I want, when I said I was starting a new chapter in my life I really meant it cause I purchased everything brand new from scratch down to the pots and pans lol!
Just wanted to let everyone know whats going on and soon I will be settled in and back on schedule… Be sure to check back cause I will be updating this blog with some really cool stuff!
Catch you later!

One of the hardest things to do is to be patient while your Adsense website slowly gains more back links and rises higher and higher into the search rankings. You have to understand that to be successful at having a profitable Adsense business means having patience, the easiest step will be website creation and the hardest step will be actually promoting your website and gaining more one way links so that your site will climb up closer and closer to that number one spot on Google.
A very overlooked approach is most people will create a Adsense based website and then upload it to their server without doing any form of traffic generation, just hoping that they will receive visitors out of thin air. The real secret is to spend the majority of your time submitting your website to directories, creating more unique content, and updating a new page to your site once a week. This will show natural growth which the search engines absolutely love, so don’t worry in time your website will gain higher rank in the searches resulting in more organic visitors.
Here is another Adsense Secret if you want to be super productive with your Adsense Business you should think about outsourcing some of the work. This will get you out of the ‘Grunt Work” cause instead of spending your time submitting your site to directories and trying to build back links, you can be spending your time working on creating unique articles and finding new niches to tap into.
Just remember, if you can build one site per week and spend time promoting your website you will be seeing a passive stream of income slowly start to flow in, and this flow can continue months and months if not years into the future with little or no maintenance. This is the ultimate goal, to create a passive income that will exceed what your normal daily expenses are! And for some this may not be much, even $100 a day in passive income would change a lot of people’s lifestyle!
Just stay focused and be patient and remember that all of this hard work will eventually pay off!

What I mean by finding that “magical” time for Article Marketing is understanding what time and this is different for everybody that you find yourself having the most ideas and when your creative juices are flowing at its peak.
I find that after a night of laying in bed thinking I tend to wake up with so many ideas about things that I want to write about. For me this is my magical time to pump out all of my ideas before they dissapear forever from my memory.
So what I do is grab a quick breakfast, fire up my laptop, then open up my word processing program and begin writing since for me this is the best time to capture my greatest thoughts. Now this could be different for everybody, some people may find that their best time to write is before bed, some may find it in the mid day or before lunch either way everybody should notice a time of day that they notice is most enjoyable to write articles.
On a typical day I can write anywhere from around three 250-500 word articles to five. Now that may be hard for most people to do, but sticking to writing atleast 1 article a day is a good goal to get started with. That’s 30 a month/360 a year give or take..not bad at all if you look at it like that.
Once you write an article, proof read it and go ahead and submit it to various article directories, I suggest going to www.EzineArticles.com, if your not an author yet I really suggest you sign up for their free membership and start submitting your written work and start getting some highly targeted visitors to your website.
I tend to find that it is more productive to write a handful of articles at one time and then just save them to your desktop, and then choose a day to submit all of those articles.
Here is a cool tip -
On the day that you choose to submit your articles try to submit 1 article and then wait 2-3 hours before submitting the next, and so on and so on. This way all of your articles will get approved all around the same time gaining more exposure for you as more people will notice your work as they appear next to each other. Also this gives you more of a chance to have your articles appear in the most viewed section on Ezines, resulting in more and more exposure.
Writing articles is a skill and can be a pain in the rear for alot of people, most writers will face writer’s block as they sit starring at the front of the comptuer screen trying to figure out what they should write about…this is a natural thing and as time progresses you’ll get better at writing articles. Try to write articles as though you are speaking to a close friend, this way the words will just flow and your articles will sound more smoother to your readers and be more enjoyable to read. If you still find it difficult to write articles don’t worry, the great thing about this business is that if you can’t do it you can damn near outsource any if not all of the work by searching on websites like www.Elance.com.
You may find that as your online business grows it is very unproductive to spend your time doing all the ‘grunt work’ and it’s more beneficial to just hire others to do so. Remember, it’s all about writing little checks and cashing bigger checks so make sure to be as productive as you can!
So find that time of day that you can focus your energy on and use that magical time to capture some of your best material!
You’ll thank yourself later for it -

As you get more and more into the world of Internet Marketing you’ll soon learn that there just so much information to soak in that it can be overwhelming, you ever heard the term “Information Overload?” Well this can be a discouraging thing.. You’ll spend the majority of the day reading, browsing, and soaking up all of this information yet at the end of the day you really haven’t done anything productive towards your business.
Let me give you an example -
You power up your computer and you and spend some time reading the emails, maybe get sucked into a few sales promotions that you received and end up spending some more time reading the sales letter pages….then you decide to check out if you got any new messsages or friend requests on your myspace or facebook account. Then after spending some time replying to everyone you check up on some of your visitor stats from last night on your web page, then you punch in your domain and end up going over your webpage…twindling around here and there..Sounds familiar so far?? Then maybe hop on Youtube to browse around on some videos for a while, then you open up a ebook on Internet Marketing and spend more time reading through it..yada yada ya…
You get where I’m going with this.
After a few hours of really doing nothing productive you shutdown your computer and maybe grab a bite to eat and end up repeating this same routine the next time you open up your computer. Funny thing is you feel as though you’ve been productive but in reality you have done nothing towards the growth of your business..Nada, Zilch. And this pattern repeats itself over and over daily, No wonder you feel as though your seeing no progress wanna know why? It’s because your spending the majority of your time focusing on things that aren’t building your business! I know I’ve been there!
Let’s change all that around!
Instead of focusing on things that don’t bring in any money lets focus on some things that will. Try to focus on doing these productive things first before you reward yourself with spending time doing leisurely things on the Internet.
You can split it up like spend an hour doing something towards your business and then take a break for 30 minutes or so and enjoy some funny videos on youtube, something of that nature if your the type that can’t stay focused on a task without some break time. As long as you are doing more ‘work’ than ‘play’ you will be okay.
Anyhow, here are some things you can work on doing.
- Write 250-350 word Articles – This is content for your blogs, website, products, reviews, etc…
- Keyword and Product Research – Finding new niches, New Keywords to use for you articles, headlines, and new possible niches to think about monetizing for profits.
- Web Site Design – Update your website, load up content, improve your conversions, learn more about it…etc..
- Write Emails – Contact JV partners, Reply to Customers, also these can be used for future email promotions in your Autoresponder series, save yourself the hassle and get some done and ahead of time.
- Learn Productive Things! - How to use that new software you got, web design, how to create a blog, how to do some html, how to set up an autoresponder, etc.. Doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to do so just spend some time learning the ropes, no ones gonna laugh at you if you mess up, I promise! Getting hands on experience is worth sooo much more than just reading about how to do, trust me..give it a shot!
These are just a handful of things, I’m sure you can come up with a few more productive things but I wanted you to see what I mean by spending your time creating and building for your business instead unproductive things, you’ll be amazed at how much your business grows just by doing one thing a day, even if its small..it all adds up.
Everyday I learn something new, wether its how to use the latest video editing software, or some html stuff, or how to write a better article.. As long as your time is spent on something productive it’ll pay off in the long run, so if you feeling as though you’ve been a little unproductive then make sure the next time you fire up your computer to set a goal to get some work done first, you’ll thank yourself later for it!
Til next time,
Tuan
