		<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 ...
