Lesson 5: Getting Started with Affiliate Marketing

To make money online and build monthly wealth you need to plant seeds.  The best way to have a garden of wealth is to plant as many different seeds as you can – so if one “cash crop” doesn’t work out, another will…

You’re reading this blog because either you are struggling makine money online or your just beginning.  My goal is to teach you how to build a monthly stream of income that increases month after month, so as you work it’s just like putting money in the bank.  I can’t teach you everything at once, which is why I break every thing down into very easy to understand lessons and tasks.  In addition to a web site, and niche, and an adsense account you’re going to need products to promote.  Every single niche has products and services that you can successfully market.  Unfortunately, you can’t get them all in one place.

If you aren’t already – you should signup for the following affiliate programs ASAP, so you have a wide arsenal of products to promote (and you’ll be ready for future lessons):
Amazon Associates
ClickBank
Commission Junction
eBay Affiliates
Pepperjam Network
LinkShare
ShareASale
Google Affiliates
MaxBounty
AdBrite
NeverBlue Ads

Once you signup for these different affiliate house, look through the different offers and merchants and signup for ones you think would be a good fit to promote in your blog or web site(s).  Make a list of things that you want to start promoting within the next 30 days.  Look for things to review, banner ads, and text links that you can use!

Lesson 4: Monetizing Content with Adsense

The simplest and easiest way to make money blogging is with Adsense. Just place some blocks of adsense ads, and blog, blog, blog…google will take care of the rest. Their algorithm will place highly targeted ads on your pages and when people click on them you will make money. There are all kinds of eBooks and print books on Adsense, but in principal it’s pretty easy to understand.

I have written a thousand times, the key to good money with Adsense boils down to these 4 very simple rules:

  1. Write good titles: For each blog posts use good keywords and write descriptive titles
  2. Start each post with synopsis: Start each blog posts with a one sentence 30 word descriptive synopsis
  3. Use the 336×280 adsense block layout: ‘after’ the title of each blog post for best results
  4. Setup the 336×280 block: with the same background and link colors as your blog

Get writing, and use these tips for every post! Blogging 3-5 quality posts per week is like putting money in the bank that will payout later!
