		<description><![CDATA[EDIT: This is an old post from years ago. I still agree with everything I said, though I now am also publishing ebooks myself, because they&#8217;re the best monetization strategy for my new websites. Thanks!
Most affiliate programs suck. Few visitors care about them, few visitors end up buying them, the payout is low, and it&#8217;s usually just a one-time pay out. If this sounds like your program, think about starting over. Your success depends on your program: if it fails, you&#8217;ll fail. If it&#8217;s hopeless, the best thing you can do might be to just start fresh.
To find the best affiliate program, just do some number crunching. I know, I hate math too. But this is essential.
Let&#8217;s say you are selling an ebook. The ebook is 30 bucks. Let&#8217;s say that you have a great conversion rate, and about 1% of people will buy your program. For most ebooks, this ...

		<description><![CDATA[Entire books have been written explaining various ways to make money online. Yet several years ago when I first began my online business journey, I simply couldn&#8217;t find one article which explained the entire process. Instead, I spent my time reading a bit on domains, a bit on hosting, a bit on marketing, a bit on link building, a bit on advertisements, and wasted time bouncing from one article to another, often more confused than when I started. Such a hodge-podge, hit and miss approach to learning how to successfully make money online wasted months, while I spent countless hours while committing horrible errors.
One comprehensive how-to article would have changed my life.
This article is to fill in the gap, and provide you with a one-stop tutorial that covers the basics of making money online, specifically without spending more than $300. This is the basic investment, and can end up earning ...

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m going to step out of my comfort zone and make a kind of sappy post. I read most of the popular &#8220;MMO&#8221; blogs, like Copyblogger, Problogger, Courtney&#8217;s Internet Marketing School, along with the inevitable blog of Seth Godin. There are dozens of others that I&#8217;m subscribed to.
I&#8217;ve always loved reading the comments on these blogs. To be honest, I probably have &#8220;better&#8221; things to do with my time. But I can&#8217;t help but notice the different types of people that the MMO industry attracts.
These are individuals who are thinking outside of the box. They have a concrete idea of what they want, which is more than a lot of people. But not only do they have dreams, they also are in the &#8220;plan&#8221; or &#8220;action&#8221; stage, actively attempting to shape their life in the form they want it. It&#8217;s nothing short of heroic to see a blogger fail literally ...

		<description><![CDATA[
The biggest business &#8220;sucker&#8221; is the person who buys because of emotion. An emotional sales pitch leaves them with a lame PDF and an empty wallet. Unfortunately, there are tons of these people. Unfortunately, a lot of greedy &#8220;marketers&#8221; have noticed this. They target the sucker, so they can suck money from the poor little mental sapling.
It seems both sinister and kind of smart. After all, you don&#8217;t have to have a great product if you are targeting the morons of the world, right? They&#8217;re morons, for Thor&#8217;s sake. They live their life making dumb decisions. They might as well make one that makes someone some money, right?
Most internet marketing scams do that. Rather than provide a quality service for a fee (like Ken Envoy&#8217;s Site Build It! or Brian Clark&#8217;s &#8220;Teaching Sells&#8220;), they&#8217;ve decided to write a 50-page e-book with stuff a half-hour spent a great blog could teach ...

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve all read at some point that if we want to write some really good link bait, all we have to do is slap together a top ten list. We&#8217;re told that StumbleUpon and Digg users just eat that stuff up, so, if we want to manipulate them, all we have to do is spend five minutes on the list and BAM! we are going to have to upgrade the ol&#8217; hosting, because our pipe&#8217;s just aren&#8217;t big enough to hold all the traffic. Or not.
Top ten lists don&#8217;t work as a rule. Blogging doesn&#8217;t work as a rule. Most things don&#8217;t work as a rule. In that way, the &#8220;secret&#8221; to social networking success isn&#8217;t a quickie &#8220;top ten&#8221; list &#8212; it&#8217;s deeper than that.
The key to success with anything online is good content, and that certainly includes lists. Lists can be done incredibly well, but only if a ...
