Each day on the forums I visit, I see so many new people jumping into Internet Marketing or try and start their own Internet home business and they just don’t know where to start. They get utterly discouraged when they think making money online should be a piece of cake – after all – just read a few threads in some online forums and you begin to believe you can just set up a website and the money will start flowing. Well, nothing could be further from the truth.

The harsh reality is that the people making money online are the same people making money in the offline world.
They’re the ones working hard every day, taking time to master their craft and skills and network with other like-minded people. It takes time – you have to give yourself a chance to let your business grow along with your skills.

For those absolute online marketing newbies that just want to see some money coming in now – do me a favor and just do this for the next 3 days. I promise you will not regret it.

1. Sit down at your computer.
2. Think about the niche you’re marketing in and start to gather some ideas on articles you could write that would be HELPFUL to someone – yes – make your articles helpful and informative.
3. Once you have 3-5 nice little articles – 400 words or so – that’s only half a page of writing… this post alone has close to 500 words. Create an account on www.AssociatedContent.com
4. Submit your articles under an Exclusive Agreement. Yes, Exclusive Agreement – it pays more – once you have a few articles under your belt – switch to non-exclusive so you can use your articles to build back-links to your site for additional promotion. For now, just make a few dollars – paid directly to your PayPal account – you need to see some money coming in to stay motivated.

Helpful hint:
When submitting your article – go to www.sxc.hu and download some free stock images – include an image with your article – it makes it look much more professional.

That’s it – practically foolproof – money making activity.

Won’t make you rich – but it will make you money – anywhere from $4.00 to $20.00 per article.

Write ten REALLY good articles a week and you might make close to $200/week.
Not too bad for someone just starting out trying to make their first few dollars online.

Want to see proof that this absolutely works – here are a few samples of my recent AssociatedContent.com articles:

My Content Producer Page – AssociatedContent.com

That’s about all.

Now I’ve really only given you the bare basics here – I am assuming you already know a bit about Internet/affiliate marketing, etc.

If I have glossed over something a little too quickly, send me an email and I’ll try and answer your specific questions.

I’ll post a more detailed article later.

For now, this will suffice.

Seeing as how the weather here in So. Cal. today is just about perfect, I’ll make this quick so I can get from out behind the computer and start to enjoy some of this nice weather.

Well, a little of this message is your typical… 2009 is set to be a great year for us in the Internet Marketing arena, blah blah blah…

But make no mistake… I’m working on some great enhancements with many of my sites and working on refocusing a lot of my efforts on some very exciting and brand new products for you.

I’ll be consolidating many of my sites in 2009 to a single site – a one-stop-shop full of unbelievable content – PLR products, MRR products, scripts, templates, success checklists, and TONS of free stuff.

As always they’ll be packed with my commitment to helping us all learn more ways to generate extra money online and offline.  And with the current outlook of world economies, I think we’ll need some extra $$.

What is that single site????

Well it’s http://30DaySuccessFormula.com of course.

It’s a little light on content right now as I port everything over from other sites, but this is a site you’ll definitely want to bookmark because following no particular publishing schedule, I’ll be publishing content and posting links to some great free stuff.

To get notifications of updates before everyone else does – you’ll want to follow me on Twitter:  And if you’re not using Twitter – USE IT

http://twitter.com/YourInternetBiz

I’ve decided to add another aspect to the site and will be deviating a bit from the typical Internet Marketing realm.

The three main themes the site will primarily be focusing on in regard to making extra money and building lasting wealth are:

1. A whole new series of quick-start guides and checklists for Internet Marketing “newbies” and IM novices. No more of just publishing long, hard to digest 40 page eBooks. These new checklists and start-up guides will be super concise, brief and easy to follow. Do this, now do this, click here, fill this in, etc. I’m really excited about these and I’m almost finished with them… you’ll be able to look over my shoulders as we build true wealth together.
2. Secondly, as I learn new tips and tricks, I’ll be passing these along for even the professional marketers out there – after all – no one person can know everything. Sharing these little tidbits and advanced marketing techniques are the only way we all can stay on top of the latest marketing themes that generate “real” income each and every month.
3. Lastly, because my background and second passion is really investing, whether real estate or equities (stocks), etc. I’ve decided to slowly add some investment related content into the site.

The reason I’ve decided to do this is simple – our goal is to generate “real” wealth either for ourselves, our family, or perhaps for charity, and to keep that wealth long term generation after generation.

Well, there is no better way to start building wealth early than to invest properly and to begin to develop a new success mindset. Regardless of the current economy, the world is not going to fall apart any time soon. We’re still going to wake up tomorrow, go to work, and try to put food on the table for our families any way we can. Times like these are an opportunity, not a curse….

For example, do you know how to invest in a “guaranteed” U.S. Government Bond that pays 15%?

Or perhaps how to buy gold for pennies on the ounce?

I pledge to make my site (no… our site) http://30DaySuccessFormula.com a shining example of how to truly build multiple and diversified streams of income both online and offline.

Here is to a truly successful 2009 and I wish you all the absolute warmest regards and hope you continue to stay in touch throughout the year.

Here is a quick gift – compliments of Google:

It’s Google’s new Search Engine Optimization Starter Guide:

You can download it here:

http://30DaySuccessFormula.com/freestuff/search-engine-optimization-starter-guide.pdf

Well, I think that’s it for now – I guess this wasn’t so “quick” – but I had a lot to cover

Now get to work on your own blogs and start making some real money.

P.S. – here is the “real” “secret” success formula to making money online:

1. Find a niche you’re interested in where people are willing to spend money.
2. Set up a key-word-rich domain and open a hosting account.
3. Set up a free Wordpress Blog on that domain.
4. Find affiliate products and free content/articles from Clickbank.com, CJ.com, etc. or create your own content for maximum profits.
5. Post blog reviews about the products.
6. Build organic or paid traffic to your blog.
7. Convert that traffic to sell affiliate products and receive commissions.
8. Reinvest profit into more content.
9. RINSE, REPEAT

It REALLY IS that simple.

What I just gave you above is one of the most successful online business models you can find.

It has created millionaire after millionaire….

Want more completely simple easy to follow business models that make money now – take a look at this free video:

http://30DaySuccessFormula.com/recommends/freebusinessmodel.html

But I mean, can you LITERALLY put a price on your blog posts?

Well, one company seems to be able to and the buz is… it appears to be the next model in blog marketing.

What do you get when you match paying advertisers with 20 million online bloggers?

The answer is a company called Snapbomb.com. And the company is definitely making its rounds within the online blogosphere. View their website at: http://www.snapbomb.com/bloggers.html?acp=7551

Snapbomb.com has taken on the task of matching advertisers to online blogger’s content for a true win/win situation for all involved.

Snapbomb’s proprietary system measures a user’s blog among various factors like popularity, reader feedback, etc., and assigns a relative score and payment scale to the blog. They then match that blog’s content to a series of offers presented by paid advertisers. What you end up with is a payment model whereby bloggers can post “sponsored” posts on their blog and receive direct payment from the middleman, in this case, Snapbomb.com.

If that’s not a win/win/win situation, then I don’t know what is. The advertisers get exposure from millions of bloggers, the bloggers get paid to “sponsor” posts, and well, Snapbomb gets their slice as well.

So the next time you decide to pick up the proverbial pen and publish a blog post, you just might want to look at which advertisers are willing to pay you for that blog post.

You can read more about this on their site at:

Do You Know How to Open Your Own Highly Profitable Home-based Internet eBay Business Without Creating a Single eBay Listing – All in Under 15 Minutes Flat Start To Finish with ZERO Investment?

Learn How You can Legally “Steal” Profits away from eBay Power Sellers Every Month.

Sound too good to be true? Well it’s not. Not if you have a little imagination, a little extra time to use that imagination, and lastly, a passion for creating multiple streams of income from your own home-based Internet business.

The ideas I’ll share with you here today will just scratch the surface.  I urge you to use a little creative thinking and I’m sure you can expound upon my ideas and produce overwhelmingly successful results. If you need some additional help, be sure to subscribe to my Internet Home Business Ideas Newsletter and get your free “12-Part Massive Online Profits” eCourse today.

So back to my original question….

Do You Know How to Open Your Own Highly Profitable Home-based Internet eBay Business Without Creating a Single eBay Listing – All in Under 15 Minutes Flat Start To Finish with ZERO Investment?

The answer may surprise you.

One could argue China is the world’s manufacturing plant.
Well, eBay is the World’s Marketplace.

Don’t believe me?

If you think Wal-mart is America’s retailer, well take a look at this number:
At any given time, there is an estimated 19 million items listed for sale on eBay.  That’s 300 times the number of stock-keeping units in a typical Wal-mart.

• Do you know the estimated minutes between each sale of an SUV on eBay? 9 Minutes.
• Do you know the value of goods sold on eBay every second? $2040
• Do you know the total value of all goods successfully sold through eBay in 2007? $59 billion. Yes that’s Billion with a B. That’s higher than the total GDP of small nations.
• The most expensive item sold on eBay to date is a private business jet for $4.9 million.
• There are an estimated 233 million registered users on eBay.

What is my point in all this rambling….

Well my point is my friend; there are a whole lot of people selling their wares on eBay.
And with the current price of gas and the economic outlook not looking much better, I’d bet there’s going to be a whole lot more sellers soon.

How would you like to get a piece of that huge profit generating machine called eBay?

Well you can, and you can do it without ever listing a single item yourself.

That means no listing headaches, no ebay fees you need to pay, etc.  All you have to do is a little research.

Here is a brief description of the basic system:

1. First you sign up for a FREE eBay account – after all – how do you expect to make money from eBay if you don’t actually have an eBay account? Click here to sign up for that right now and then we’ll continue on. Go ahead – I’ll wait…..  ?
2. Next, sign up for eBay’s free Affiliate Program. More on that later but you can sign up for that right here….
3. Browse around eBay for a bit in some of your favorite categories, preferably one that is made up of primarily of expensive items.  Some examples of this would be collectibles, autos, antiques, art, coins, etc. Find several Powersellers in this category and view their listings. You want to try and find a Powerseller that looks like they’ve been doing business on eBay for a while and doesn’t look like they’re going anywhere anytime soon – meaning they have an established eBay business going.
4. If you have a website already, use it to drive traffic to the Powerseller’s auctions using your affiliate ID embedded in the link. If you don’t have a website, sign up for a free Blog at www.Blogger.com or www.Wordpress.com. Write short sales descriptions of the listings on eBay and link to the auctions. I’ll describe more sophisticated ways of doing this in another article.  If you need help – subscribe to my newsletter above and send me an email.
5. Lastly, get paid. – It’s that easy. You get paid when someone you sent to an auction successfully purchases that item. You also get paid for any new eBay sign-ups – called ACRUs.  It doesn’t get any easier than that. You advertise on your blog or website ebay products for sale, and then if they sell from your referral link, you get the commission – plain and simple.

Essentially you are legally “stealing” commissions right from under the Powerseller’s nose every time one of your referrals creates a winning bid on their auction.

How’s that for an easy to set up, no investment necessary, eBay Internet Home Business Idea?

So back to my original question….

Do You Know How to Open Your Own Highly Profitable Home-based Affiliate Marketing Business Without Advertising a single affiliate product – All in Under 15 Minutes Flat Start To Finish with ZERO Investment?

By far, one of the easiest and most successful Internet Marketing or Affiliate Marketing businesses you can start is an “Affiliate Marketing Products Review Site”.

What do I mean by that?

Well it’s simple;

Lets analyze for a bit what is going through the mind of someone browsing the Internet getting ready to buy something.

When someone decides to pull out their credit card on the Internet and commit to making a purchase, they’ve probably found that product in one of two different ways.  They either found it while searching for a solution to a problem via a search engine like Google.com or they came across an incredible offer on the Net while browsing another site of interest – like their favorite gaming site.

Take me for example… just this evening… I uninstalled my Semantic Norton 360 anti virus software on one of my PCs – I hate that program.  So onto the Internet I go searching for a better (and probably free) solution. Virus software found and transaction completed.

I was in search of a solution to my problem of purposely uninstalling my virus software.

When someone gets to your site, you want targeted traffic of people already in the buying mindset.  You want people in search of a solution – a solution that you just happen to be able to provide.
You see, this is where it gets interesting.

Typically someone will click on a product from a vendors website and then leave in search of additional information like real customer reviews.  So someone types in “Acme Widgets Reviews” in a search engine like Google.com.

Well, just this afternoon, you just happened to write a product review on your Blog titled – what else – “Acme Widgets Product Review”.

So your site (if planned out right) comes up as number 3 on Google.com and the soon to be buyer clicks on your link to read the review.

So lets step back for a second and analyze what we have here and look at why this method is so powerful…

• We have just published a top product review and got listed high on Google.com for that particular product name.
• We’re attracting ready buyers in search of a solution to their problem – they just need a little un-biased nudge first.
• I hate to say they’ve fallen into our trap here – because after all, it’s our intention to offer real value to those customers looking for honest product information…but…they basically have. After all it is our “real” intention is to make money isn’t it, albeit honestly and ethically.
• So they would-be buyer reads the review, likes what they read and decides to click on your product name to go back to the vendor’s website.
• And to the website they go, little do they know, however, their actually going to the vendor’s site – via your affiliate link. AND YOU’VE JUST MADE YOUR FIRST SALE.

Now doesn’t this seem a heck of a lot easier to sell a ready and willing customer versus the traditional method of hard selling affiliate products via Cickbank or whatever?  For those that prefer the traditional method – don’t get me wrong – that works great also and I’ll be writing more on that later…

So – now on to the nuts and bolts – after all – we need to get your site set up, it’s been 10 minutes already – 5 minutes left…

1. You go to any free blogging site; Wordpress.com for example and set up a free blog.  It will be http://YourBlog.wordpress.com.

Now technically, I would be remiss if I didn’t emphasize the importance of actually setting up your own domain address like www.YourDomain.com and simply installing Wordpress on your domain.  This site you’re reading now is a perfect example of doing just that.

But – I promised I could get you up and running in under 15 minutes and well… for free.

So… for this example, we’ll use a free site and if you implement this little gem, email me and I’ll show you how to set up your own site under your own domain if you don’t know how.

Now back to my story…

2. Now go to www.ClickBank.com. Search around the site a bit and try and find a topic that interests you. Maybe it’s products on dog training, home business ideas, Internet Marketing, etc.

3. Do a search under that topic on Clickbank and sort by Popularity. (very simple).  You see a number of interesting products by publishers that are just dieing to get affiliates to market for them.

We’re not going to get suckered into that routine. Any old Joe (or Jane) could set up an affiliate site and try to “hard” sell these products all day long.

4. Pick a product that looks like it has a very professional sales letter and web site and genuinely looks like a top rated product.

5. Sign up as an affiliate for that product and get your affiliate ID (URL).

6. Now go to www.Google.com and do a search for that product’s name or even “Product Name Review” and see what comes up in Google.
My bet is you’ll get a ton of results.  Well, now start browsing those links and you’ll be looking for honest and un-biased review comments.

Again I’d be a little remiss if I didn’t say this… but ideally, you would actually buy the product so you know first hand how well it works.  If you contact the seller and tell them you’re writing a review of their product, they may even give you a copy for free or for a large discount. You never know unless you try.

7. Now compile those comments you found including some of your own insights/comments into the product and post your first Blog entry reviewing the product. JUST THE FACTS.

This is un-biased content. Simply offer a professional and un-biased review of the product.

In your review, make sure you mention the product names a few times, and mention the general topic as well (e.g. – Internet Marketing). Do this a couple time.

DO NOT TRY AND SELL THIS PRODUCT IN YOUR POST.

Add a link (your affiliate link) on your post and let the reader click that link for additional information from the Publishers (seller’s) web site.

That’s really it…

I know some of you may be thinking – what good is all this going to do….. why not try the direct sell?

Well, it’s simple – anyone can, and most people will, simply take the affiliate sales page and post it right on their web site. That means there are thousands of identical sites with the same information going for the “hard sell”.

We’re smarter than that… we go for the “soft sell”

We place the product name predominantly on our post, discuss the related field or topic it’s in.  What this is doing is using some exact “key words” for that product and triggering search engines to spider your Blog and generate free traffic because you didn’t just put up a bunch duplicate content.

Instead, you wrote a genuine and useful product article/review in your own unique words.

This is How You can Legally and Ethically “Swipe” the Profits away from your Affiliate Marketing Competitors Right from Under Their Noses.
