Thanks for all the encouragements you continue to give us. I know its only a matter of time before I see some money begin to come in. Could you look at my site and give advise on the next step to start generating both traffic and income. Honestly I am concerned about filling out questionairs for pay because each program gets my name and e-mail address and bombards me with all kinds of solicitations. It can be cumbersome. I have another website TDKmarketing.com where I signed up with Commission Junction and have a few companies that approved my site for Affiliate marketing. I need help getting these two sites operating properly.

I know you are bussy but could you check both sites and give me pointers.

Thanks

Great question! I also like the direction you are going with the animal rescue site. My wife and I have a total of 5 rescue pets.

As for your question about cheap – 10 cent traffic. The short answer is yes, you can get cheap traffic from Microsoft – even in 2011. I recently got traffic on the Microsoft network for as low as 4 cents. I’ll be honest though. You have to dig a little deeper to find this stuff. Here are a few tips:
1. Dig deep when researching keywords. You’ll have to look for phrases that nobody is bidding on. You’ll have to think outside the box. Consider the names of animal rescue organizations, websites, or events.
2. You can also get cheap traffic via Microsoft via their ’syndicated search network.’ This is basically Microsoft’s partner websites. A few sites in this network include yellowise.com, blogspot.com, etc. This traffic is typically less expensive than what you will get with Yahoo and Bing.

I hope this helps – best of luck!

You are wise to be careful about some of the programs out there. Sadly, some programs are out there to just take your money.

How do you know we are for real? For starters we are just two ordinary guys. We actually practice what we teach and have several successful students…some of them are making $15K per month right now.

Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Thanks for writing.

Thanks a ton for the positive feedback. It is much appreciated. I also hope to meet you in person. Keep in mind that Affiliate Summit is in New York this August. It’s a fantastic networking event – you get to meet some of the hottest networks and affiliate offers.

Let me know if you have any specifics I can help you with.

I know exactly how you’re feeling. I experienced the same thing when I got started.

Here’s what I suggest:

Buy the product yourself – and make sure to use your affiliate link.

Here’s why you should do this for ANY and ALL affiliate products you promote:

1. You see whether your sales are tracked properly. Unfortunately affiliate tracking is not perfect. You want to make sure that you are getting credit for the sales you do end up referring.

2. You get to see their sales process. You can see for yourself how easy – or hard – a company makes it to purchase. I once mistakenly promoted a product where the company’s shopping cart malfunctioned!

You may also want to watch a friend or relative make the purchase. That way you can see if there is anything confusing about the process – on your website and/or on the company’s website. You can fix these things before you start sending traffic to your page.

Make sense?

Great question!

Thanks for the feedback. I apologize for the sound quality. We did our best with this. It was an impromptu interview and it was definitely chaotic at the Affiliate Summit. Hopefully we’ll get some better interviews on Mobile Marketing in the future.

Thanks,

We have around 100 active websites. It may sound intimidating but keep in mind they are all simple sites. Often we take one template that works and update the links and some of the content.

Also – keep in mind that we started with just one program that works and ramped it up from there.

How is your website doing? Let me know how else I can help you.

I am sorry to hear about your experience with Claim Cash. We just added several new great offers which don’t require a cell or mobile number. Some of them are just one or two field submissions – and you get paid!

Our typical students are making about $20 per week/$80 doing the bare minimum with Claim Cash. (And this doesn’t include whatever they are making with the main offer of their website!)

In fact, we just had a student call us yesterday to tell us he had his first $250 profit day. So, hang in there!

You might need to do a browser refresh on your claim cash page to see the new offers.

Otherwise, please send me your website url – I’d love to take a look and offer my advice!
Thanks,
