Easy $100 A Day - Perfect For Noobs

[norsebastard]

First, I have to say - Big, big thanks to meathead for his guide. I've been reading for a couple weeks now and I've decided to take this on as my first official project.

My only question so far -- I've read through all 20 pages of this thread (my eyes..dying..) and I saw someone else ask this as well, but if it was answered, I must have overlooked it.

In clickbank's "Updated Promotional Guidelines" (effective August 1, 2011) it says:

Connections between an endorser and the vendor that are unclear or unexpected to a customer also must be disclosed, whether they have to do with a financial arrangement for a favorable endorsement, a position with the vendor, or stock ownership. Expert endorsements must be based on appropriate tests or evaluations performed by people that have mastered the subject matter. This means vendors cannot have actors (paid or unpaid) pretending to be someone they are not as part of a product endorsement. Also, affiliates cannot pose as neutral third parties evaluating two products so they make a commission on selling one of them.

Has anyone had a problem with this method through clickbank, or does the ruling not apply if you're making a commission selling both products instead of just one?

Thanks!

Just I wanna know how you find a good niche for this technique? I think the niche that being talked most on9 + niche which desperate buyers..

Can anyone clarify on this one? I'm about to set up my second site using this method and was thinking of giving CB products a try.

They don't really enforce this very strictly, review sites are very common. As long as you don't outright lie about the product, it's not a problem at all.

You should also put a disclaimer at the bottom of your site (or in a disclaimer page) saying that you earn a commission for products bought through your site.

Thanks. I'm going to try to have the site live within the next couple days. I'll post results in a week or so and let you know!

okay so far I got my site up and running, I have put up 4 or 5 products on there and done some answering of questions..

am seeing some traffic, no sales yet but am still working on it

this looks very hopeful if you keep working at it

Three was just an idea - there's no reason why you couldn't do 20 or so.

One of my sites has about 150 - but that's a tested niche that I know is profitable. No need to start with that many.

I was thinking of doing the "cheap" method and getting a more general domain name (maybe with review in it) then just use pages or subdomains for different niches for review. That should be fine with your method since we're not trying to rank on google?

Could try to rank each sub domain or page on different keywords I assume, but that does risk the entire venture if google smacks it.. I'd imagine.

First thanks to meathead1234 for the great technique, I am myself a noob when it come to IM but after reading the 20 pages( took forever) and taking lots of notes about steps to follow,what to do and not , im ready to take action and jump in. I can relate to this technique in a way since ive been running this car/motorsports blog for almost a year now and most of my views,actually i would say 3/4 or my 20000 views are from my signature and my comments/reply in several popular car related forum and also from tweets and facebook page. So with your help meathead,all the notes i have from this awesome thread and my experience with my personal blog i am confident it wont take long before i see the money coming my way... thanks again and ill keep you guy posted !

Easy $100 A Day yeah right

 

[R33Luke]

$100 bucks a day eh?

Definitely starting this tomorrow. Will post feedback if it works out for me at all.

Easy $100 A Day yeah right

Someone posted that they were making $350 a day... so $100 a day isn't unrealistic at all.

If you take a negative view on everything, you're never going to make any money.

That's really nice!

In your experience with this, going back to my previous question, do you think having one domain with sections for each niche could work well or make each a separate domain? I was actually thinking of grabbing a 10+ year aged domain as well.. so with all the linking to each niche section, the age, and keywords for each page.. my inexperienced SEO belief was it could eventually rank well? And if I don't do anything stupid, the domain shouldn't be google smacked?

Not trying to be hand fed, but would like an experienced person's input before investing the time and money.

I'm checking out products now for my site.

To those that have been trying this method - have you been having more luck with low-cost products (that would sell more easily, I would think.. but less money per sale) or with high cost products, banking on the idea that the higher cash per sale will make up on the lower volume of sales?

I may overestimate the "Average" internet user, but whenever somethings going to cost me more than..say.. $50.. I tend to go to a half-dozen websites researching it before I'll put money into it. Is this something I should worry about, or does it not really matter?

 

[pawkite]

I've taken a few things out of your post and i am very new to this whole thing but it has seemed to have helped
Thanks

 

[mootonandy]

Would anyone be willing to show me the site they set up for this method to help me know what I should shoot for?

I started a make money online related site months ago. It started as a MNS+ and I just used the ucontext plugin for clickbank but I have just not been able to get it to rank.

I will give this a go with this site too.

 

[owlfowl]
