Day Job Killer and Adwords Programs Vs. Free Technique Guru Guides

Free Affiliate Marketing System vs. DJK and Company

I have just finished reading The Free Affiliate Marketing Sytem and was very pleasantly surprised. I compared it to Affiliate Project X and the New Chris book, Day Job Killer. Now everybody has their own style of things that work for them, but The Free Affiliate Marketing System was much more in line with the way I do things, and gives a great plan for newbies to get started, for for old dogs to learn some new tricks.

Online Marketing on Auto Pilot

I pride myself on being a fairly old hand at online marketing, having started about seven years ago. I'm nobody's guru, and am pretty content to just quietly make my own living on the internet in various ways. It's a challenging, creative calling, and while it's hard to explain to other people what affiliate marketing is, I love my job! The thing about Pawell's book is that it concentrates putting your marketing on auto-pilot, and then moving on to more marketing. In my opinion, DJK will just give newbies a headache.

Oh Chris of DJK and Affiliate Project X IS A GENUIS...

He's smart alright, but not for the reasons you might think. All this crap about
stealing secrets from the gurus is possibly marketing hype. However, no doubt is tips about using Google Adwords can be effective until everybody else starts using them, if they haven't already! The Direct X Linking Method involves linking directly to the affiliate which we'd all love to do if Google didn't just make a rule that only one affiliate link per product can appear on a page. In order to nudge your competition off the page, you'll have to be pretty savvy and work your rear off!

The thing about this guide, and that most of the guides that promote using adwords or other Pay per click engines to promote products, is that the authors want you to spend your money to promote their products! If you're not savvy enough to make pay per click a good investment in your time, they've still sold you their book! If you are savvy, then they make even more money as you pay for traffic to visit them.

Internet Marketing Review of Day Job Killer and why you shold not waste your hard earned money!

Everybody will Benefit from Free Traffic

The difference is that the FREE AFFILIATE MARKETING GUIDE (no it is not free - just much cheaper than Day Job Killer - and tells you how to get free traffic), is that is does not require you to spend a cent on traffic. Another problem with paid traffic is the fact that your faucet shuts off as soon as you pause or stop your campaign! Other people are also competing with you, and unless you constantly manage your pay per click campaign it's bound to fail, either because you get shoved down into the 17th page, or your bid price rises out of profitablity.


The techniques in Pawell's book will keep traffic flowing for years after you've forgotten about them. He gives the exact method and location of High Credibility Sites you can backlink from which will give you almost instant traffic and link recognition.

Look, if your still not convinced, on the first day of the DJK launch, I searched for it on Google and Yahoo. The Free Affiliate Marketing Guide Review came up first on both engines in the Free Traffic Searches!

These searches are more credible anyway, because everybody knows that the sponsored links are, well, sponsored!

You Built a Website and Nobody Came?

Actually, this is the hardest thing about selling online. Let's say
you've gone to lots of trouble to research what you want to sell,
obtain a great domain name, and made a fantastic website!

Then you activate your website, put on a stats tracker, and see that
you are the only visitor!

Here are some first steps you might take to improve website traffic
to your site:

1. Become active in related message boards and forums. Answer
questions, and then post the URL of related pages on your sites.
2. Submit your site to search engines.
3. Start A blog and make sure you get your blog hooked up with blog
searches.
4. Explore social marketing.
5. Look for related websites and directories that may link to you.
6. Begin your own social network..i.e a group or forum.
7. Try offline advertising. Put your website on a business card.
8. Put your URL in your email signature line.

Internet Marketing - Wow it's been awhile

Hi, I realized that I have been really bad about updating this affiliate marketing blog. That's not because I've given up, or gone on to other things. I've just been busy. But I did want to tell you that you should go to Affiliate UnderDog for my latest updates.

I plan on using that blog to explore affiliate programs, marketing tips, traffic source, pay per click programs, and all the buzz. I really do make a living online, but I have used lots of ways to get multiple income streams. You need to find what works for you, and it will usually be a combination of things.

Anyway for the buzz on Affiliate Marketing, pleave visit me at Affiliate Underdog!

Quick Ways to Get Your Site Indexed

I've been lurking around on lots of message boards for webmasters and have come up with a couple of quick ways to build backlinks.

Go find some popular message boards related to your site and post a relevant post. Make sure you include your website URL in the sig line. Popular message boards will get indexed quickly, and this does bring backlinks.

Just go to your favorite search engine - Yahoo or Google or whatever - and search for 'Forum Your Topic' or someting like that. The message boards that come up on top will be great shots for indexing.

Have fun!

What really makes money on the internet?

People ask me what the best program to use is. I tell them that it depends.

If you're on internet total newbie, and are overwhelmed by websites, search engines, affiliate links, etc. then you may want to start with EBay or Survey Taking.

Really - probably most people are using The Bay of E for income growth. I, personally, think there are easier ways - but I know a wee bit about the internet. This is not bragging. This is not - I'm better than you.

It's just that I've been online for awhile, can put up a website, and understand something about traffic generation. With affiliate marketing, you don't need an inventory, you don't need to handle sales or customers... you just drive sales leads to the actual seller, and they CLOSE THE SALE. If you hook up with a great closer, you're in!


You can click here to take a look at a Free BLOG all about drop shipping and EBay.

Now survey taking sounds like a scam, but people - usually women, sometimes men - who work at it - get hooked in to survey companys and actually supplement their income this way. You can mess around and look for free information on survey taking, or you can save yourself some time and invest about $30.00 in a do it yourself kit. The most popular guide to survey taking is the Survey Income System.

You can click here to Look at the Survey Income System - It also has info on mystery shopping, making money from ads on your car, and more tips like that. I know a lady who made $1500 one summer mystery shopping, and she said she had a blast. Now $1500 isn't a full time income, but it supplemented her schooling, plus she had kids and a husband - so that's kind of cool. I assume to make a full time income, you have to work at this stuff like a job. I know - it always comes down to that!

As for affiliate marketing, let me say this. I am still looking for a good beginner guide. My guide, five years back, was just to jump in, land on my butt, and then try again.

This is my pearl of wisdom: Giving away somethig free is the easiest! For instance, now I have the most success with Free Information. The surfer has to give contact information for the free information. Basically this contact info is sold as a LEAD to a company that will try to approach them to make the sale. Closing, and all that is left to the other company. All I have to do is SELL the surfer on the idea of giving me an email address and some other general information. I get paid for this, since leads are valuable!

If you are interested in affiliate marketing, and you already know a bit about the internet, I like this new e-book: Affiliate Project X. I like it because it's basically a step by step guide to picking a good product, making a selling page for that product, making great advertising copy, and then various ways to get people to read your ads.

The topics on pay per click and adwords are probably worth the price of the book! Chris, the author, will explain what you are missing in setting up pay per click adwords campaigns. I know I certainly needed to know that, since my adwords campaigns were dismal failures before.

He also gives other traffic ideas, and some of them are for free trafic. He tells you how to find out what the super affiliates are doing, and how to copy their success.

Now this e-book is not free, but I think you will be happy with your investment after implementing one or two of his strategies. You can go to his website and sign up for a FREE NEWSLETTER which will also give you tips. In fact I did that at first, and then I got hooked and bought the E-Book!

In internet marketing everything old is new again!

All the young guys and gals in internet marketing have tons of new buzz words. However many of the same things that were important a few years ago are the same things that really do matter today. Actually with increased competition, and smarter search engines, the old standards are even more important than ever. Of course, surfers are getting more sophisticated too!

In the old days, sticking to the rules helped, but we had a lot more room for error. We could exchange links with anybody, plaster our pages with banners, and write horrible copy. Given time, new surfers would show up and somebody would buy something.

But even now, I think you can make a lot of mistakes as long as you remember that CONTENT IS KING! I believe that surfers come to the internet looking for products and information. If they can find your site and also find updated content that they are looking for, surfers won't care if you site uses the latest technology or is designed perfectly.

Some of the most productive internet sites have humor or news as content. These sites are not lovely, but they provide a place where surfers will revisit to get their daily opinions, news, or humor. Carefully placed ads on these sites make them very profitable.

One easy way to put content on your site is through free reprint articles. Look at a Self Publishing site Like PublishMyself.Net

Welcome to Internet Marketing and Website Traffic

As the owner, webmaster, and grunt for several websites and blogs, the main thing on my mind is traffic. Actually, to misquote, website traffic isn't just the main thing. It's the only thing.

You could design the most beautiful website, with wonderful ad copy, tons of content, and all of the forums, blogs, and mailing lists in the world, and you won't make any money if nobody comes.

If you are a beginner, the first ways to gain traffic you will probably learn are:

Search Engine Optimization and Submission
Pay Per Click
Directory Listings
Exchanging Links with other sites
Posting Articles with links back to your sites
Starting a blog
Joining forums and user groups
Offline advertising

Well, that list was off the top of my head, but it's probably the bulk of what I done. I do make a living online, mostly through affiliate marketing and advertising on my sites, but I cannot always give myself, much less somebody else, a surefire tip to bring quick traffic.

I do have some ideas about which things are quicker than others, and which traffic methods shold be started with a long term view. A lot of it is trial and error. Affiliate marketing and Internet Advertising give us the opportunity to have flexible hours, work from home, and enjoy some freedom and control. But it's a slippery slope that's constantly changing.

Well, anyway, that's my first post. I'll continue to follow up with articles on different methods of growing traffic, especially different methods of viral marketing. Feel free to comment.
