Commission Crusher All Hype?

July 3rd, 2011

There is more to being an affiliate marketer

than just putting up banners and sending people to sites to buy software. There is integrity.  I do not recommend that you download and buy this, even though it would give me a nice commission from Clickbank!

THIS ONE is a Newbie GRABBER

and most of what it does is already out there. Steve Iser  did a quirky hyped video to push the Commission Crusher. The discussions and questions in The Warrior Forum made it very clear. The people with experience do not need the program.  Nor do they/we appreciate the hypey style.

Those who actually bought the program were at odds with each other about merits and lack thereof. Most agreed that Steve’s presentation was more instructional and less hyped up than the sales pitch.  So if you want to see a really slick sales presentation, go to the link.  But do not expect to get rich quick from this program.

  • THOUGH the AFFILIATE sales might be the most lucrative part.
  • BUT WHO WOULD SELL SOMETHING THEY NEVER USED Successfully?
  • AND would you ever trust that person again if they sold it to you … already knowing it was a “Newbie Grabber”?
  • I think not.

I was almost duped. But I decided to complete the path of due diligence and check out Steve and some reviews on the product before I put it out for sale.  I am really glad I did the double check. There is a lesson here, folks.

Don’t get too focused on the high percentages from affiliate sales that you overlook the real value of the product itself.  Your integrity and reputation are far more important than a $37 sale or whatever!

So, learn from Steve’s video what a hyped sales pitch is like so you will recognize it sooner.  And pay attention to the details and reviews from people who actually put these things into action.

I put the big banner at the bottom of the page because I liked its slam sort of approach. But you will notice it does not have a live link. That is on purpose. Of course I would like the commission, but I don’t want anyone to buy it from this site.  I like my readers and want to keep the trust going.

Article Marketing Equals Link Building

April 15th, 2011

Every article I write gives me the opportunity to spread the word to yet more people.

In addition, each article that I syndicate offers many more opportunities to build backlinks to my site.

Why is that important?  Links are the fuel for traffic to your site. And GOOD LINKS are the lifeline to good rankings in the search engines.

The world of link building is multifaceted and you can get bogged down in do-follow or no-follow etc. You can waste a lot of time dumping links on link farms that will be of no real value. Or you can seek excellent link networks with good PR values to boost your own rankings.  I have seen it happen. I have “made” it happen.

You must be a savvy link builder and connect all of what you do to that link building campaign. Know your keywords. Write good quality content for your blogs and articles and make them keyword oriented.  Know what you are looking for in the SERPs and you can then watch how much progress you are making.   Learn which tools are most effective for your type of site.

I do not spend money on link building.  Instead, I write articles. I write articles for my sites and I write articles for people who HATE to write.  So in essence I get paid to build their links.

For a long time I relied primarily on Unique Article Wizard  for good syndication and unique article production.  Noel Swanson has done a great job of keeping a good program going well.

I enjoyed writing short blurbs for Linkvana to get bursts of links and traffic. Dave Kelley has built a good system but it is costly.  And all link networks change with time.  I kept my affiliate status with Linkvana because I not only write articles, I am an affiliate marketer.  Hm. Do you see how they go together?

My favorite program for article syndication and distribution at this time is Article Marketing Robot. It picks up well and adds to what UAW was doing. And does more.  They have a great helpful forum and Vincent offers speedy and superb support.  With a minimum of effort on my part I can distribute pertinent original articles to thousands of sites and pick up hundreds of effective backlinks to my site almost overnight.  I have watched my SERPs improve quite rapidly.

HOWEVER. None of these is a magic bullet.  You MUST have good quality content. AND you must have diverse sources of backlinks to get the most out of your backlinking campaign.

And What does this post have to do with mlmnetworkmarketingtraining?  Well, friends, if you are going to be networking for your online business, you need to know the multiple avenues that are available to you. I am doing less mlm these days and more articles and more link building for affiliate and training programs.

Plus I find myself writing for more than one person for links, for articles and for blogs.  I prefer that over the autoships and complicated mlm binary compensation plans.  Do I still have mlm programs like in the side bars?  Well, yes. But to be honest, I am not pushing.  I use products and I like them. I tell people about them both online and offline.  I am choosing not to be a team leader, but rather an active and eclectic participant in programs which I select.
