Affiliate Marketing Forum Reviews | The Fcuking Truth!

Posted by ncmedia in: Affiliate Marketing 101, Branding & Design, Industry Product Reviews

This post comes shortly after my 1000th post at an affiliate marketing forum (<<You should read it - I gave away tons of free profitable campaigns) or webmaster forum… I signed up to DOZENS years and years ago, and went through signing up to about 20 (or perhaps ‘resigning up’ would be more accurate) about a year or so ago…

It can be a rather… intimate experience, one part of you is just trying to fit in with this group, another part of you is absorbing and filtering the bullshit, another part of you wants to network, and yes for many these plague infested fcuking forums are also filled with spammers, wankers, scammers, wannabees, and HILARIOUSLY fubar signature links with all of them chasing the same nickel… Now don’t get me wrong, forum marketing is HUGE, and I love it myself, and use signature links too however what I find fascinating are the kids that blatantly put “Make 7K your first 3 weeks online” - yet proceed to ask the stupidest and most basic questions totally diluting his own credit and being a broken inglush hypocrite … . .. Grrrr.. . …

So - in light of this new little milestone and being loyal to xx forums, and constantly refining my journey through them all, I’m going to try to offer a non-biased straight up look at the truth about each forum below. Please feel free to drop your opinions or agree/disagree with me - I AM going to offer a few of my ‘opinions’ here as well.

1. NicheChoppers Marketing and webmaster forums
100% Free, No paid sections yet, Na ads! must sign up to view most goods:
Visit: http://forums.nichechoppers.com

^^ I’m obviously going to have to spam my own first - it’s newer than most, is JUST starting to get busy, and I’M GLAD I waited a year of being loyal to others before really shaping and recruiting into mine - in short: No hassle bung free environment, moderated well, rather aggressive yet loose approach, tying my family in a little tighter with each day. Closed loop family with success stories, tons of step by steps, growing daily.

2. Digital Point review - Visit: http://forums.digitalpoint.com
Usually where most people start at, it’s HUGE and full of…. crap:however is also the forum I myself had to filter and waste time at for over 1000 posts (1001 at this time) before handing in my diet card and bowing out… I’ll be back, however probably just to laugh at the de ja vu of stupidity and horrible moderation. If it’s one thing DP has, it is shear SIZE and the fact that it is always BUSY - however at the same time is FULL of just… everything bad with this industry, like everything…

I personally must have helped get 20-30 idiots banned from there… FACK makes me angry thinking about that place!! If you’re a TOTAL n00b, enjoy the rare little golden nugget you can find in there, and don’t buy ebooks or click on signature links unless you view it from a marketing point of view not a consumer… (Hi guys, miss me yet?). If DP let ME run the boat for a few days, I’d a) kick a lot of people off b) get BETTER MODS c) Monetize it better d) Change the colors :(

3. WarriorForum review - Visit: http://warriorforum.com/forum/
Well, definitely a step up from DP!! WF is known to have a TON of the bigger ebook and digital products/services players all hawking their newest WSO (Warrior Special Offer) to each other and there is a LOT of padding, and patting! Hey I myself have sold a few things in their WSO section, and their JV section is actually pretty good if you’re scouting for new offers, launching, or looking to partner up with someone on a project…

I thought about dropping some names here but I’m not that kind with my link juice yet… and this blog seems to do great with ranking - so perhaps I’ll give some props to at least one person I can say a LOT about in there so far - and that is Nicholas from MasteredManuscripts << Great writer.

4. ClickBankSuccess review - Visit: http://clickbanksuccessforum.com/forum/
Once I joined CB - I wanted to start scouting for AFF’s and for pubs alike, thus joining CB’s appointed forum… I liked it a lot more at first than I do today - Main reason is it might as well be a ’support’ forum as their rules and door are quite tight re what you can/can’t talk about… If you so much as question whether or not CB is down/acting up/failing, the post gets removed and you may get banned… I can see why they do it and I would hate that on my forum too, so perhaps a stupid example but overall - THEY’RE TIGHT!

The good part is you’ll find a LOT of both CB n00bs and pro’s asking/answering GOOD and relevant CB questions. Though even with their own appointed forum - DP’s CB section alone easily compares to the activity and n00bness factor in each… (GUYS - A FEW FCUKING STICKIES!! THAT’S ALL IT TAKES TO STOP DUMB QUESTIONS AND FAST-TRACK PEOPLE - oh wait, you WANT dumb questions, versioned intel, make them ask… more threads and posts right??).. meh, sorry they’re all like that to a point not just this one. So yes, stickies and loosen the tie a little please.

5. ABW - AbestWeb review - Visit: http://www.abestweb.com
Perhaps the ONLY forum I’ve ever been banned from and kicked off of… wankers! I made a HUGE blog and formal complaint about it a while back but decided to remove it due to their response/reaction… more wankers! Also very busy, MANY top level brands and bullshit commission structures on things like carpets/rugs/tangibles/etc… Lot’s of pro’s and I heard the owner can be a nice guy, but the short lived days I had there proved him and his crew otherwise…

In short: I launched a Recruitment and affiliate spy software (TFRP), and paid to put up a advertorial/recruitment post… The first response was a hidden insult at my whole program FROM A FCUKING MOD - Referencing another new member and getting the whole crew to come to my paid thread, and rip me plus my program to pieces… Ok cool, I got to show some colors too, and have a good look around at all their sigs, their thread style, their learning curve/operation etc… and can only say that the elitists there do a good job of making n00bs stay n00bs, and detouring any chance of real earnings with mouthy personal bullshit back and forth, ‘at least put some humor into it you WF wannabees’. Anyway so within a day, I got thousands of views, some PR, some negative buzz, a lot of affiliates, and a pissed off group of elitists for not ‘freaking out’ like I’m sure they hoped…

Finally posted my final ‘fcuk you and have a nice day, I’m out’ but in a very gentle way, and my post got removed, then my whole paid thread got removed… then got a refund and a ban and kick in the ass out the door for standing up for myself, because I was vexed that a MOD would make an idiot out of a sponsor/paying member publically (hi Trust - hope all is well in ‘fun’ mod land)- wankers! Before all this drama - I was STARTING to like SOME of the banter and the members and offers/pubs…, however will still say that most are stuck on selling rugs and see 3-12% commission on $59 offers as ‘amazing’ programs, SAS seems to have them by the balls along with a few other networks, and the digital arena products/services is just ’stench’ to them…. On the flip side - THEY BANK (just needs some clean up with operations/day to day bullshit they allow). **Oh and too much advertising imo too (I know they’re for profit, but c’mon - easy on the offers man - way to make me feel UNcommunity - what is this church? You’re waiving a money basket at me when I just got here??).

6. 5staraffiliateprograms.com review - Visit: http://www.5staraffiliateprograms.com/
One word - WOW - More on the corporate side of things, LARRY IS DA BOMB - and the main owner is actually really cool and involved with the op fairly intimately so the moderation is par… perhaps a tiny bit tight but for the programs and offers/clients/recruiters etc. that they attract, I think it’s best this way - To note the above - if ABW mods and members came to 5star, they’d get wake up call that’s for sure.

This place is like an affiliate and publisher wonderland full of anything and everything to do with our industry. News, gossip and funny banter is minimal - rather expect a mix of dry humor with witty banter and low tolerance to crapola. Also home to many networks sponsor threads and good recruiters/programs for all levels of experience. I said this once on there before - “Every Forum Needs A Larry” - And just might make him a t-shirt that says that oneday… Known not to sleep for 3 days because he actually PM’s just about everyone/anyone for any reason or just to help, or break their posting cherry, etc… (Wonder what he’s worth actually - most committed employee I’ve ever seen)… Kudos to you guys, sorry I’m not there as much, get an easier to remember domain and I’ll stop wasting time trying to get there and giving up .. . .. :P Jokes.

6. WickedFire GAY MARKETING FORUM review - Visit: http://www.wickedfire.com/
Two words - HOLY SHIT - “They can actually get away with this stuff?!?!” is probably the first thing you’ll think before visiting less than 4 threads. Perhaps the most diehard and down to earth AM forum - DEFINITELY NOT A PLACE FOR N00BS!! Lucky my name is Norb not noob - and although I PHAILED MISERABLY there on occasion - I’ll easily say that this is one of the best and upbeat places to mingle/stay active (just don’t transition from DP to there and you’ll be fine - maybe).

Amazing names and faces, top level industry veterans along with perhaps the most lethal dose of internweb humor you’ll ever experience… It’s like a Seinfeld episode and Kramer is 10x as fuct, mixed with many elements of ’survivor’ and a splash of ‘reality fcuk you’ daily n00by disaster pwnage…

All fun aside though - I’ve been there a little more often recently and after getting pwned myself, I’m making headway and gaining a few points with their elite .. . … i thinkz… See - if you haven’t been there you’ll think I’m an ass for calling it a gay marketing forum in the title lol, however once you get there and read some threads, you’ll see what I mean (no they are not actually gay - and no you should NEVER click on things - even when they look absolutely harmless… TRUST ME DON’T DO IT!!!) - it’s home to the most epic dickroll since the inception of the interweb, and you’ll be scarred for life!

Ok as you can see I’m really liking this one. However perhaps more than most others because it has a LOT of EDGE - kinda like me, though I’m quite tame in comparison - it’s amazing what they actually DO get away with - I won’t spoil it, and I won’t promise YOU will like it or fit in or get liked, but I will promise that it is packed with everything from black/blue/white/fcuking polkadot hat tactics, n00b guides, great threads, and an addictive humor base to boot.

6. WebmasterForums review - Visit: http://www.webmasterforums.com/
Kinda dry really, I think this was one of the ones I signed up to eonz ago and didn’t like it too much then either. It’s not that it’s bad - it’s just that I have to compare it with a LOT of other shtuff above - and that shtuff is just.. better.

Anyway - It’s got some great technoids that do seem to enjoy that side of the industry a lot more than actually making money (being a webmaster) - Not as busy as some of the others, not as intimate, and a lot of the threads are hard to decipher as it attracts a LOT of foreigners with horrible typing (god bless you all however you’re trying to break into the MARKETING spectrum in English speaking markets - you NEED to par up your writing/grammar before trying to be some expert/guru/makehmoniez ebook developer…)… Sorry but I’m giving this and DP the same playing field and user experience rating… At least this one laid out a little better and the pros/mods seems to care for the community a little more.

7. eWealth review - Visit: http://www.eWealth.com
I like it - Not as busy as many of the others, however home to many big names as well as great focused community involvement. Things to look for are the interviews with the pros, the announcements for programs/callouts to affs, and a well spread section for a few networks out there… Can’t really say too much more about it! 4.5 stars! (Good mods/good humor from senior members).

8. BlackHatWorld review - Visit: http://www.blackhatworld.com
Retarted amounts of info and ‘tools’ are available on this forum. If you’ve ever wanted to venture over to the wrong side of the digital legal tracks and see how to monetize them… this is the place to learn. It’s kinda funny actually - as my loyalty grew to this one slowly, I noticed that it’s actually filled with 80% n00bs too, most have no clue how or what all this BH stuff is, but want to eagerly learn/explore, and thus these n00bs probably (imo) evolve into amazing whitehat/greyhat marketers very quickly. I like hanging out in there sometimes because they don’t sugar coat shit, they don’t tollerate dumbasses, they explore and document sooo many tactics that you’ve probably never thought to do (and will probably be too chicken shit to try).

Once you get your initiation out of the way it’s smooth sailing… Not nearly as ‘bad’ as you’d think re the people or the vibe. Cheers to the admins/mods there they’ve been great to me (had a bunch of my shit shared there, and they actually have a blacklist for people like me to add their progs to make sure members don’t share them or they get banned - woot! And of course - I had to learn the hard way - everyones initiation is different)…

Damn I gotta run, was hoping to do at least 10 - perhaps I’ll do volume 2 later though I probably won’t… So in closing - yes I’ll probably still poke my head into all xx forums, no I probably won’t be signing up to anymore, HELL NO will I NEVER be paying for them like many dumbasses do, and HELL NO I don’t think I’ll be making my 2000th post at DP anytime soon…

I tried to raw - sorry if any of you owners read this and don’t like it - perhaps my own forum will now be under scrutiny but that’s fine mine is still a baby and has no $ agenda other than to honestly make my team money - because they sell my products they also make me money - so it’s in my best interest to make sure my forum, my family and my crew earn well, learn well and grow fast… /shameless plug.

$3,980 in ONE day - Another New ClickBank Record For Me.

Posted by ncmedia in: Making Money Baby!, Top Level Random Posts

ClickBank Biggest ONE DAY Achievement!

OOPS! I just finished saying I wouldn’t paste another screenshot until I was at my next goal - I CAN’T BELIEVE THE DAY I JUST HAD! While I’m use to seeing nice numbers this is my personal best to date achievement for one day as a publisher or an affiliate.

What The Hell??!?!?!?!!?? HOW/WHERE/WHO/LET ME IN!!
Ok ok - so here is the scoop. Publishers rarely do this (post account earnings) - While I had to mask out some numbers you can see that today (yesterday now - I’m such a night owl!) has an ENORMOUS bar next to it! While the last few days were somewhat plateaud at high 3 figures per day. So what happened? Where did all this come from? Well quite a few things happened in a lucrative sequence… .. here is the scoop.

When you launch a product, you simply cannot predict what will happen sometimes, who you will meet, how you will be found, where your competitors truly make their money, which superaffiliates to try to recruit, what other pros are doing, what lists your promo ends up on - blah blah blah… As your site grows, you start to acquire a ton of customer inquiries, feedback, affiliate support scenarios, JV and list scouting etc.

While our program is doing wonderful and everyone is happy, we wanted to take it to the next level and after being live for a month had plenty of new resources to add to our sites. Thus we both revamped our already profitable site (i know, don’t touch what’s not broken, and we took a risk, boy oh boy am I glad we did!), scouted for a few new JV’s, and set today as another promo/mini relaunch day for many new partners to blitz together…

So having said that - The combination of revamping, constant tweaking, recruiting, and continuously conversion mastering the whole operation - today equated to an unbelievably profitable day! Even most of our affiliates got a boost in sales from both those getting blitz material and researching before buying, and from their existing campaigns now pointing at an even sharper page. It’s amazing what small yet important little changes can do to a site. If you’re a publisher and or you work with an AM for your program - stay close to them, learn what you can from them - and make sure they know what they are talking about not just recruiting you to garbage programs!!

When you’re an affiliate within a new niche and profitable campaign, you always keep your ear to the streets - you seek out hot new products, and though some don’t like jumping onto a hot bandwagon, let this be a testament to ‘there is no such thing as a saturated market if you know how to market’.

Cheers family,
NC.

First Check For Five Figures Arrives From ClickBank =)

Posted by ncmedia in: Making Money Baby!

First Five Figure Check

And yet again, I’m being brave and bold today - It’s Monday - Who says you can’t start the week off on the right foot?!! Proud moment for me as a ClickBanker. My days of reading horribly made and transcripted tutorials, fluffy ebooks/videos, and thousands of posts on various forums have brought me the first real bit of food that is worth tooting my horn over (also because the next check is almost  accounted for and it should be bigger this period - however I will try not to post anymore screen shots until I have a 20-25K  pay period…

This is from both being a publisher and affiliate - and is one of many accounts however this is one of the strongest. This year has had a few rollercoasters and some defeat analysis was indeed endured, but looking at this milestone for me it was and is all worth it.

Don’t hate on it either - it’s real - it’s possible - and anyone with a good analytical mindset or will to succeed can achieve this. Might not be the best time to mention this but I’ve only been at ClickBank since last Sept. (10mnths), however I’ve been marketing for 12 years so this isn’t exactly a newbies success, rather a refined old schooler bringing his slate up to todays times and successful business models. Let the phrase ’starving artist’ be eliminated from my vocab - at least for now while I enjoy this moment :)

You’d think that I would opt to get a wire transfer right? Nahhh, I don’t mind the bit of a wait to get CHECKS, they mean more to me, like it’s IN my hands, it’s less virtual, i can take a pic for inspiration, I can cash it and make the bankers themselves a lil’ jealous… whatever - I like ma’checks!!

As insane as I look in that photo - I’m giggling behind it and looking forward to the reset button to now achieve both consistency and growth at this level on multiple accounts - wish me luck until I post the next one!

Cheers family - NicheChoppers is doing big tingz - good time to get on board if you’re looking to earn from your talent/time/passion for success.

From $0 to $12,500 In 15 Days, NO Adspend! **My New ClickBank Record

Posted by ncmedia in: Making Money Baby!

Hey family, I know that many of you are going to look at this post and wonder why the heck I would up my earnings so boldly or proudly… . .. See in our world (affiliate marketing) - it is very important to both document your successes and prove to the world that making a living online is MORE than possible, to further motivate yourself, and reset your goals for the next level of success… .. …

I’m proud to say that we launched a program 2 weeks ago with NO adspend, just time, talent, and people (and people skills!).

ClickBank
I swear under any and every law made against forgery or misconception that this screen shot is real, not edited or touched in any way, and current…

To some of you - this is perhaps average, or not enough, or you’ve made a lot more in 15 days - however to most of you - this is absolutely luda right? If you’re not into online marketing or don’t have a clue what our world is all about - as you live your life and do the 9-5 thing, then you will look at the above in awe and always wonder a) Is it real? b) Is it possible? c) Can I do this?? - The answer is ‘yes’ to all three.

In my world - I am viewed as an important player for the monetization of a program to take effect and succeed. I am an artist, a producer, a marketer, a manager, a recruiter, a publisher, an affiliate gone wild, yet I…. am NO different than YOU.

This program above - has also paid out over 30K in affiliate commission - 30K in 15 days!! The best part of all this? I get emails and messages from people all over the world that I’ve never met - thanking me for helping them here or there to adjust their campaigns and now they earn enough to do this full time and not worry about money!! Sounds like every marketing pitch out there I know… but I’m smiling and shaking my head right now as I reflect on this past two weeks, and think about the next 2 months! Some of these guys have had 1K days, some guys that did email blasts made $3-4K in 24hrs… How many others will I help potentially stop having to work? How many units of our upcoming products are now going to sell faster? How big is my affiliate pool going to get if this program is soo hot?!!

There have been times where I found myself at a bank deposing over 20K checks for one huge contract that will take me x months to produce/finish/revise/maintain/update/etc. - However THIS is 100% automated revenue - 100% clean with no spend, and the only thing I found myself doing post launch, was helping new comers pop their clickbank cherry and sending them off into the wild jungle we call affiliate marketing. Now I don’t know about you - but I would rather help people make money all day, and grow in this game, and potentially make 100K in a few months in the process rather than do work for one client and be stuck to them forever…. So now - in time - a few affiliate managers will be put into place, paid well to do what we would internally do day to day, and fully automate this so we can focus on next moves.

It’s interesting, I’m reflecting now on the xx programs that I’ve launched to date - some of them were EXTREMELY timely buildouts, long R&D sessions, extensive asset/resources for aff’s, and months of preparation… However this one wasn’t one of those.. . … this one was rather quick and we didn’t have nearly the amount of time we’d like to have pre-launch, yet it’s one of the fastest growing to date. The growth has been natural too, not one huge spike, but everyday another 5-15 new affiliates convert, and everyday our strength in the markets penetrates deeper. So kudos in turn to all of you that have stuck around through the thick and thin with any of my programs, and thank you for your involvement.

If you’re reading this, and it inspired you. I’d like you to take a second and visit my homebase where all my products are lined up ready and waiting to be monetized by people working from home/computers - http://www.nichechoppers.com - It’s not all that hard, and if you’re new, I have guides and step by steps to get you going with no money or expense (perhaps just a domain name - $10)…

Thank you family,
NC.

Four Tier Annihilation Method Launches Today?! Any Review Copies?

Posted by ncmedia in: 4TierAnnihilationMethod, Industry Product Reviews

I know I just covered the four tier module topic - however today is the big day for 4TAM << Four Tier Annihilation Method by Alex Goad. I know EXACTLY how Alex feels today - it launches at noon…

By about 7am - He will be awake putting together final touches on the campaign, getting his blasts ready, keeping in touch with primary partners - and probably sweating bullets because Dday is here! Though I’m confident Alex will have success with this program - it leaves a vendor with those butterflies we first got with our first product we ever launched or our first sale we ever got as an affiliate marketer… It’s a great high - you know that at 12:00 - you are going to be opening the door to PILES of orders from hungry marketers looking to learn the newest veterans methods and tactics… . .. I just went through two launches in the last month - and have approx 6-8 more up and coming (And although that number should be shrinking, it keeps climbing - hey I like to make stuff leave me alone…), and I can attest to all of the above as that butterfly of success has embodied me plenty of times.

Anyway back to the topic at hand - 4TAM!!! Get use to that term - it will be embedded into EVERY newbie marketers head - and those that are already in the game for quite some time will still see value with this kit. .. … So while gets flooded with orders, emails, affiliate requests, and spends his day refreshing his clickbank account to watch his bars grow - he will also in turn be educating upwards of 1000 people within days (yep - 4 figures - within days on good launches ;)). THAT comes with instant rep, credibility, and of course a big risk in NOT coming through and losing your rep for good - but I know Alex, and his stuff pops/sticks for a reason - he’s ‘been there done that - programmed the t-shirt’ with all these tactics, so it’s nice to see him give this back - at a stupidly low price point too (That’s my only beef Alex - you undervalued this one imo bro!) You might as well have let people download 4tam for free.. . ….

4 tier annihilation << Check out the full offer from Alex now, or scroll down for my official review.

Congrats Alex, hope you don’t lose your head today bud! I’ll see you in the Dominican with the yacht soon :P

Four Tier Annihilation Method Reviewed Before It Launches… Mr. Alex Goad You Did It Again… 4tam

Posted by ncmedia in: Affiliate Marketing 101, Industry Product Reviews, Making Money Baby!

Hi guys,

4tam - Four Tier Annihilation Method - Alex Goads SecretsIt’s not too often that you’ll see me do reviews on here - but when I do - you can be sure that a) Nobody paid me to write them a testimonial (errr review), I have no interest in filling anyones head with bulls***, and I do affiliate marketing for a part of my living so I will proudly use my aff link here - and ask that if you do end up grabbing your copy from my links, simply drop me a comment or get in touch, and I’ll throw you something from my goodie bag/vault for doing so as my thank you - there now we both win and you get more prime-rib (you know what i mean… . . ..).

So as any smart marketer - when you are given the chance to do some work and partner up with another industry veteran, you take it with a smile and run with it’! I’m not talking about Mark Warren or the Rich Jerk - I’m talking about current, up to date, ‘hot and always making money moves’ types of guys.. . … You’ve heard of PlayersWithMoney, Project BlackMask, and if the name Alex Goad doesn’t ring a bell just yet - well let me introduce you to the man himself: This is from a previous project that made a loooot of money, for a loooot of people.

So today - I’m on MSN with Alex and discover that he’s at it again - on the 10th of June, at 12EST - another banger is about to drop from his studio called the Four Tier Annihilation Method.

Now - lucky me - I get to swap my uber new projects with associates as we launch our new projects to get some top level feedback and reviews.. . … and I’ll say that if there is another media publisher I can show great respect to off the bat - it’s Alex. Here’s why - You know how most marketers are making heavy claims and love to brag about the newest techniques while it’s just about the packaging and names that change most times…?, Well it’s to the point where any top level marketer can look at the industry and EASILY say ‘The Market Is Filled With CRAP!’ To be honest - I can’t agree more - and it’s been this way for quite some time!! It really makes any new to intermediate affiliate marketer stop and think “Who the HECK DO I TRUST?!” Everyone and their brother is a marketer or affiliate marketing wannabee nowadays, and taking the ’steps to success’ from the wrong people will have you chasing your tail while you spend time and money on - more - CRAP! So watch here as Alex takes a bite into the topic and breaks it down while introducing the 4tam - 4 tier annihilation method in video - in person - Watch The Four Tier Video By Alex Goad Here

After watching this video - I was like “Ok Alex - I like it - it speaks volume about the industry - so show me the goods, the pitch is priceless so far…“… . .. And in turn came this beautiful little link - which took me to the page where I could download four tier annihilation for free and carefully check out. .. … Oh boy - so this thing launches in a few days, and here I am looking at the core of the project brought to you by another six figure earner… . .. - 160 or so pages of .pdf prime rib - and a set of videos as Alex walks you through the 4 tiers himself.

4tam - Four Tier Annihilation Method - Alex Goads Secrets

Conclusion? Well - I’ve been here for almost 12 years now (living/working/earning/playing online on a daily), I’ve seen MANY publishers and affiliates come and go, I’ve seen TONS of products do pump and dumps, launch/sink, I’ve helped 600+ vendors now, and I can definitely offer a real core view of a products worth if I do say so myself (that’s a lot of ‘I’s’ - sorry). In short - after watching the videos and absorbing highlights in the book - I’m not even sure who to recommend this to.

4TAM covers just about anything a newbie is going to need for these marketing methods, and the more experienced folks are going to have a hayday with the simplicity of it all.. . … I have been asked to keep this very light as I review it, as to not even give a hint of ‘what/how/why/methods/tactics’ so I’m sorry if it’s a bit unfair however I cannot disclose any actual tiers or methods used, let’s just say that if you ‘take the steps’ which are conveniently outlined for you in video AND literary format, and put in your dues - YOU will undoubtedly see results and MONEY start to FINALLY show face in your accounts.. … .!!

Alex - should you read this (I know you will :P), thank you kindly for the opportunity to review your newest crushing methods, not only will I support this and refer other marketers to do the same, but I encourage you to never stop unleashing these top quality products - there aren’t many like us - the affiliates respond well for a reason - it’s all about quality/packaging/real intel by real successful people, but most importantly it’s all about people skills, only then do you really know how to communicate - thus enable an amazing approach to ‘marketing’ at any level - so keep truckin’ Mr. Goad!!!

Again: Here is the link to get in on this - and if you end up grabbing a copy through my referral links, please drop me a comment or email me, i’ll throw in a lil’ something to make your learning experience with Alex even more valuable than it already is… . .. Four Tier Annihilation Method

Thank you,
NC.

How much money is ‘enough’ to walk away with your Inernet marketing prize…?

Posted by ncmedia in: Making Money Baby!

Reflecting on the many ventures i’ve been getting involved in over recent years, I recall sitting on a plane going to Vancouver with my associate Vadim beside me, and we were talking about how we live online. . … At first it was a good little chuckle but then we broke it down and I found myself quite taken back actually. It’s true - for the past 11 or so years, i’ve pretty much both made my living, and literally ‘lived’ online - for up to 70+ hrs STRAIGHT sometimes I might add! As the conversation continued we talked about the perks and consequences of our field, our goals, and looked through about 3-5 business magazines during that flight - critiquing and analyzing success stories

We were comparing our ventures, and those of conglomerate media companies or bluechips but obviously on a much smaller level. Questions started coming to mind about ‘how ”much” is enough - to consider yourself successful and walk away with your prize?’ The conversation stemmed out to a few other seats - and some interesting responses arose- $10million, **$100K a year ***$400 a day - ****I would never sell… Made me really think about this for myself. I’ve done the six figure salaries - I’ve done the whopping 20K in weekend campaigns, I’ve also had horrible years where I lost money though…. While my answer is still undefined - I would think to have enough to literally do anything at any time with your time would be ‘enough’. So After 11 years of doing this ’stuff’ - I’ve actually somewhat ‘been there’ for quite a while! My views are skewed in most peoples eyes because I monetize my time in a very different way compared to most… .. hmm expand on that:

Think about your day job - think about a one month term - ask yourself these questions:

*How many hours in 4 weeks are spent driving to/from work?
*How much money is spend on gas?
*What about your lunches, foods, snacks, coffees, perks…
*How much time in your day do you actually do ‘hard work’ that is challenging and rewarding?

I’ve eliminated ALL of the above for many years of my life (well - still gotta eat!!) - I’ve preserved my income well and most importantly, I am IN CHARGE of my time. Even if I didn’t make a dime more than I did today ever again - It’s actually more than enough! Having said that - I’m at a point in my career where a LOT of my ventures are about to overlap into a big funnel for plenty of automated revenue streams. When this happens, and if done correctly - it should equate to a self replicating or duplicating blueprint to ‘more than enough’ money to go around.. .. ….

A recent program I launched has made 2 people TODAY ALONE - over $1000 each. Do you have ANY idea how good it feels for me to be able to say that? Though I did not do it alone and have a partner, who I’m SURE feels the same way - The fact that someone takes what my studio creates - and markets the product juuuuust right - to enable double digit sales with their first campaign on day three of our launch, is just a heartfelt truth about this industry sometimes. The funny thing is - I have NO IDEA who they are! See - at networks like ClickBank - you cannot contact your affiliates through their system. So over the years I’ve been using my own methods to recruit, train and keep in touch with my big earners - but even then - when you have 10 or so program with clickbank - you literally have 1000’s of affiliates to watch, and you see who the stronger ones are right away… . .. So having said that - I don’t know about 90% of my affiliates - wow as I think about that - THAT is leverage! Do I want to know them? SURE! Would I take a day to meet with them someday - OF COURSE! In fact - I would love to (and just might) throw a HUGE shindig and seminar for FREE for all my people someday… yeh.

Anyway, so these guys are on their way to potentially making over 1K a day now - for who knows how long - but it could be forever! Even if it’s only for a year - $365,000 is a LOT OF MONEY! Give me 4 years and I’m out.. . … So as my affiliate pool gets bigger, and as this new product takes off with a bang - I’m going to come back to this post in ONE YEAR and let you guys know how much my top earners have made over the year. In turn - I will also disclose how much the campaign has brought the internal team as well - if we can get 1000 people making 1K a day - oh boy!!

Feel free to drop a comment with how much YOU feel is ‘enough’ to do what you want day to day. Is 1K a day enough? $200? $50? $4,000???

Forex Tracer Is Coming… Currency Exchange Robots On Crack!

Posted by ncmedia in: Industry Product Reviews

Forex TracerI knew that title would get your attention :)

So - my studio is about to unleash a pretty crazy project onto the markets. My previous post about these Forex systems was indeed a pre-text to gage the markets, search results and popularity of these products as a market test for our new release.
The Forex Tracer is going to rival the big boy products in this sector for quite a few reasons - see - All these products are somewhat similar in nature, and the real difference between them all is the branding and packaging behind them. While many pay and or get endorsements from industry veterans, it’s really all the same - unique aspects within each software may indeed be present - however they all have the same goal - to data mine the forex markets in real time and bring back profitable spreads on currency exchanges… . . .. a 3 TRILLION Dollar a day market.

The Forex Tracer - Automatic Foreign Currency Exchange RobotUnderstanding the logistics and mathematics of these robots, tracers, raptors, killers, autopilot systems etc. is not something the average Joe can decipher. Most of the algorithms used in all the software are probably the same in my opinion, again the difference being in how efficient and reliable end results are.

So having said all that - I’m enjoying this branding treatment and this product is said to hit the affiliate world within the next few weeks if not sooner - the sales page is coming along - and although this may be a bit premature, I know many people out there thrive on getting news first, and being able to act on it first to help us monetize fast.
The site so far: www.ForexTracer.com

It will more than likely find its way onto the ClickBank marketplace - the CBID for this will be ‘iforex’.
Affiliates will be able to expect a $50+ payout, and we welcome any and all Forex enthusiasts in advance if they want to try it out and offer a review/testimonial… .. …

Hope you guys are ready for this - The marketing material is looking great and we expect this one to be among the top sellers on whatever marketplace(s) this ends up on.

Stay tuned, and keep your eye on that site.
Norb.

How To Make High Converting CTR Landing Pages For Affiliates

Posted by ncmedia in: Top Level Random Posts

Landing pages and Mini Sites.

Landing pages are basically quick presell pages that vendors offer their affiliates, they serve
many purposes and most times a landing page is going to convert for you much better than
straight aff linking from ads to the main site. These pages are usually designed with SEO in
mind, HOWEVER: We STRONGLY recommend you change the title, some meta tags, and some
text on the page, I’ll explain why shortly.

This product has various landing pages for you to use and customize. If you still don’t get it: We
do our best to attract affiliates to help us sell Project Wealthy, and we need to offer them all types
of marketing material to get them selling with minimal effort. In addition to the main site, we make
great little one page sites that affiliates point their traffic and ad campaigns to, that landing page
has their affiliate link and ID attached to the links so when they click fom the landing page to the
main site, we know exactly which affiliate sent the traffic.

If a sale is made, both the affiliate and the product owner will know where and how the traffic got
there. Some landing pages are amazing and others will just not convert. We recommend using
landing pages that are attractive, short, sweet, and have amazing calls to action to click through
to the main site.

How to use them: The best thing to do is to download all the landing pages a vendor offers,
optimize them all with your own affiliate links and seo tricks, and upload them to your
servers/hosting space. Now submit those pages to as many SE’s, directories etc. as possible.
Though it’s not mandetory it will obviously make most sense to grab a domain name
(godaddy.com $2.99) that is relevant to the product, and forward your domain name to your main
landing page.

If the product your are promoting does not have a landing page, you will have to create your own.
Take some of the graphics and text/colors/fonts/etc. from the vendor page and utilize them into
your own powerful one page call to action. Make sure there is a continuity in design, and do not
try to sell them anything yet, do not show price points, simply get them OFF the page quickly
and onto the merchants sales page.
Monetizing Intermissions
Looking after my own products and promoting others: I can confidently say this.
1. If you find a profitable system with adwords via direct linking, you will soon get bumped (i hate
that!). Superaffiliates can smell a successful campaign a mile away.
2. Landing pages have MANY pros and few cons, for the products I run, my best affiliates
convert with the landing pages that i premade, which they changed re text/meta/seo, and some
now place higher than the main site for certain keyphrases organically.

If done correctly your landing page should:
a) Get you long term results if you take the time to change up the meta/seo and submit those
pages to se’s. There is a whole chapter on SEO etc. if you haven’t read it yet you’ll love it.
b) Utilize a social bookmarking tool on your landing pages, it may go viral without you knowing
or having to do anything.
c) Allow you to get a domain name and forward it for your own sub-branding, and not competing
with the main .com in sponsored listings.
d) Well made langing pages are not meant to keep the customer on them, they are meant to
quickly get visitors onto the merchant site. Look for landers that are not long pitches but quick
effective intermission pages.
e) More control over the content, keys, presentation, tricks etc.
f) Allow you to throw in your aweber (explained in the ‘email marketing’ chapter) or other forms
for follow up/list collection.
g) Easier tracking/analytic abilities if you make multiple landers w/their own sets of ads.
h) If a product offers more than one landing page in their affiliate section, I recommend grabbing
them all, changing them all to your own keys and submitting them all to se’s, why do one if you
can double/triple test your campaign.

Monetizing Intermissions cont’d
I have actually made over 90% of my sales with the use of effective LP’s on both my own
campaigns promoting cb products, as well as watching how my affiliates work on my products.
The ones that succeed are the ones that indeed utilize both, however the ones that stick around
are usually the ones that use landers (because they see more sales).

Some believe that landing pages get penalized by google and you get a low quality score on
your ads because it is only a single page without much content. The best workaround is to make
a 3 step pre-sell - so on landing page 1 you intro the product with a call to action link that goes
to page 2, here you tell them a bit more about the info, perhaps a video/audio/flash demo, and
have another call to action and link to page 3, here you tell them how much this product is going
to help, what advantages there are and your most important call to action link will now point them
to the merchant site. IF the free info and step by step you’re giving them is put together well, you
can literally presell the customer so well that they won’t even read the entire vendor site and just
scroll to the ‘buy now’ button to order.

You will notice that most ClickBank products pretty much follow the same formula, most are very
long sales pitches that follow a sequence of important information, testimonials, offers, bonus
material and powerful close. These pages are usually designed and written by professional and
expensive copywriters. Why? Because often the sales letter will be more powerful than the
product itself, so vendors realize that getting into the minds and emotions of their customers is
important.

There is a science to it, psychology and reaction play a big roll, and this money pulling, reaching
for your wallet influence is very important for the customer to absorb. SO, in my opinion it is still
better to get your traffic and customers OFF your landing page quickly with a great call to action
to the merchant site, chances are you will not be as good at the whole sales pitch as the vendor
and their team.

Take action
Even if you do not have hosting or have not picked a product yet, please complete this action to
understand how to maximize your landing pages.

1. Please pick a CB product that offers a landing page now, download and open it.
2. Inspect the page, look at all the SEO and meta-tags, re-arrange them with your own tricks and
target new/better keywords, try to outdo the vendor with their SEO.
3. Add some customization to it, if you have Aweber, put a form on the page. Make sure the
lander has a social bookmarking tool, if it does not - install one.
4. Now that you have one page mastered, make a backup copy. Now starting again, create your
first two or three-step call to action. Make two-three pages, and get creative with how you’re
going to entice your visitor to click through them and onto the merchant site.
5. Review, refine, double check links, seo, etc. Once all is complete, if you have a hosting plan
upload the pages to your server and check everything again in a live online environment.
6. If you’ve done everything correctly, point your .com or dns to this page, and proceed to submit
the pages/domains to as many SE’s as possible.

The sooner you start to build landers, the more experience you will have and the better your
knowledge base will be for future products. To truly maximize landing pages it does not take
much effort, and most of the work is usally already done for you.
Thank you for reading this chapter and if you are ready to proceed please open the next eBook.

To your success!!

How Do I Make Money Online With My Blog? Explode Your Profits For Free!

Posted by ncmedia in: Affiliate Marketing 101, Making Money Baby!

Make Money Online With BlogsYou’ve seen them, you’ve been ‘wowed’ by their power and by the amazing CMS (Content Management Systems) capabilities, and now you’re wondering “Do these guys really make any money with this stuff? It’s just some opinions and some text and some graphics/banners/aff link…?”.

Truthfully? You can make millions from these blogs - especially once you make your first one and prove that you can profit from it. Do I make millions with this one? Nope, not yet anyway - my blog has been up for a few months, during that time, one month it was down due to a server switch and careful customization/setup, and even now as I write, the blog itself is still NOT complete… However, having said that - blogs can be made into a wonderful income generator if they are setup properly…

1. If you are promoting someone elses product as an affiliate, it is relatively easy to get yourself a blog or wordpress theme, and buy a relative domain name to forward it to. The more SEO you throw at it, or the more plugins you get to help, the better! IF you are making it product centric, you can easily convert clicks and not deviate from your goal to monetize the offer you are pushing.

2. This is what I see most- and I KNOW it does not yield optimum results. If you set up a ‘make money online’ free blog with no customization or flare, just another plain blog, and throw tons of products on it, say by making it a review site - your efforts will be short lived imo. I think the biggest mistake I’m seeing is when people make blogs with 10 or so products, and promote 2-3 of those products in articles, youtube etc. just to get clicks to the blog first. Once at that blog, the person is distracted and tempted with 10 other products that you have endorsed… Chances are you just lost them before they even got to your site. If you heavily endorse a product, create your blog around THAT product and only THAT product, do not let the reader be distracted by any other offers or exits, leave them with as little room as possible for ‘decision making’.

3. LEARN SEO - Even if that means spending two-three weeks in advance of creating your blog - you MUST understand SEO so you can target keywords in various ways throughout your posts to attract your targeted visitors. If you do not know SEO - you might be setting yourself up for failure before you even start.

4. Do NOT create 10 blogs and interlink them - at least not yet. Your first task is to understand how they work, what the possibilities and restrictions are, and to MASTER your first blog so you can create others with just as much density and SEO. Otherwise you’ll have many ‘mediocre’ blogs and no matter how many you make it won’t make a difference for backlinks and quicker raises in your results.

5. Nowadays there are auto content generators, auto commenting in do follow blogs, auto searches and keyword stuffs… so many little tricks and fake generators that you can probably notice the difference right away as any reader would. This is not ideal - Your blog should be filled with useful, original and great content that YOU yourself have written or acquired - do NOT steal or imitate others ideas and posts, simply BE ORIGINAL and google/other SE’s will love it.

6. Don’t forget, google, msn, yahoo search engine bots are like a 6 year old, they do not like to be confused, yet they get confused easily so your objective is not to trick them knowingly, but to rather give them exactly what they want - feed them in a way that will not confuse them or put them in a loop.

7. Branding - I can talk about this one forever so I will make it brief. Notice how my blog is quite original and you will not find one like it elsewhere (unless people start copying it). The better job you can do with your branding, the more readership you will attract, and the more respect/authority you will portray. Nobody likes looking at stale or standard templates no matter how good your content is, make sure your blog is at least well put together and well thought out visually. Logo, colors, typography sets, graphics, taglines, white space, etc.

8. Sometimes I feel that those who have absolutely NO intention of monetizing their blogs get the most attention. Why? Because their objective is pure - they give google and others real content to index that is clearly not an ‘ad’ or meant to monetize… Google might be like a 6 year old, however you must think - how many webmasters try to take advantage of it everyday with potent SEO tricks? Their algorithm changes a lot and though it acts like a 6 year old, it’s filter to crap is that of a world leading veteran… So - content is king after all - make sure your content is GREAT and you will succeed. Take time with your writing, take time with your formatting, take time with thinking about what to write. Get a lil’ personal, that works well for me. Write to your readers on a one to one, tell them a story, bring them into your world a little deeper than others, and YOU - will have them hooked and subscribing to your feed in no time.

9. I’m sorry that this post does not have a clear step by step of how to make money with your blog - so in closing, there are countless ways to monetize it including:

*Get a clickbank or paydotcom or CJ or linkshare or shareasale or other network account (free).
*Pick a sector of business or life in general that you love, and start acquiring the top 3 products in that sector. You will soon be promoting these products and affiliate links from your ‘one to one’ blog.
*Get adsense - this is only going to make you pennies per click however if your blog goes HUGE - it can be a good little stream of income.
*Advertise for people - allow a banner spot or 2 or 10 with pricing for each.
*Offer reviews of products for a fee - your client will have a professional review, backlinks to their site and most people will read it before buying as they research what they are about to purchase…
*Sell your own ebook/digital product and get a paypal account, you can create PayPal buttons right in your posts and collect directly from your blog.
*If your blog is for a good non-profit cause, put a ‘donation’ button/box in all your posts or on your interface somewhere.

A good scenario: You get a blog, about life - it costs you $10 - lets say you get www.allaboutlife.com <<I’m sure that’s not available but good example. Now you can write all about life and endorse anything and everything.

Now you get an account somewhere like clickbank, pick a product YOU LOVE << get a domain name for it. Now promote that domain in your blog :) Here is a video to better explain this:

I must finish as it’s long weekend here in Toronto and I can here the firecrackers starting to go off so I’m gone to the beach to watch the show! Enjoy and I hope this teaches you enough that you get inspired to go to blogger or wordpress and start on one tonight!!

Cheers everyone and God Bless.
