Since Well Fargo and other payment processors have turned the tap off the rebill arrangement for many of these offers, the majority of ...

If you’ve taken the path I suggested to create your own product/service and have a product in hand, you might be wondering what to do next.The first and most common option is to promote your own offer – via PPC, social media, media buys, contextual/PPV traffic. In particular, I’ve recently met some affiliate who are ...
If you made the effort to head to Affiliate Summit, PubCon, AdTech or any of the other industry shows, you’d have had the opportunity to meet up with networks (affiliate/CPA as well as traffic), and fellow affiliates and marketers with whom you’d speak to regularly over AIM or on the forums, the question is aside ...
The newest monthly update for my internet marketing strategy site is up, and the topic is on product creation.Some of you will be thinking “Heck no, I’m happy as an affiliate, I don’t want to have a product and deal with bad customers and worst yet, customer service!”Hold up a second.

As you can see from the last post, “PPV Case Study wrap up and conclusions“, things did not turn out as expected.While some critics have chosen to say the case study was a failure, I consider it useful to have gained a couple of lessons in how Direct CPV works.Yes, I’d stopped the campaign before ...
After running for about 14 days, I’ve come to a couple of conclusions about the PPV test campaign I ran, especially some conclusions which may be a revelation to you if you’re new to this form of traffic.[Note: this is the last in a series of case study posts, to catch up, go to the ...
So Finchie has a running tagline on his blog that says “If you are a newbie CPA affiliate marketer who doesn’t really understand what I’m chatting about but wants to, I have a “Guide to CPA Marketing” ebook coming out in December. Contact for details.”. The problem is since this first appeared on the blog ...
CPA network TriFoxMedia, which has been around for less than a year, has just announced that they will be closing down the network at the end of Feb.Founded by affiliate and affiliate manager Josh Todd, the network is closing down due to “circumstances beyond its control”.Separately, Josh told me “i’m sick of all the stress ...
It’s been about 7 days since my PPV (pay per view) campaign on Direct CPV has gone live and I’ve some analytics data which will help me refine the campaign.Note: If this is the first time you’re reading about this series, you might like to start at the first post “PPV Case Study kicks off”I’ve ...
It might not have been a good idea to go with 50 URL targets for a newer PPV network like Direct CPV (use code BR25 to get a free $25 ad credit). Still it’s worth a test, especially since I hadn’t bought traffic from there before.[Note: check out the first post in this PPV case ...
Going through the resources listed in the kickoff post in this series “PPV Case Study Kicks Off“, I logged into one of a several CPA offer databases (take your pick of Offers202, Offer Vault or AffSpy), and looked for dating offers. As I was repeatedly reminded by numerous affiliate managers, with Valentine’s Day at the ...
This is the first in a series of posts for a PPV/CPV (pay per view/cost per view) case study that I’m doing. You’re welcome to follow along and launch your own campaigns too.With PPC networks increasingly bringing the hammer down on affiliate marketers marketing offers with thin affiliate sites, the past couple of months have ...
In the early days of the WWW (ie: 1990-2000) what mattered was your ability to stuff your webpages with keyword rich text, in the hopes that the unsophisticated search engine bots would index common and obscure phrases and direct users to your pages when a user typed in an obscure Yoda-like “nano cheap”.While search engines ...

Continuing on the people and companies I met up with at the recently concluded Affiliate Summit West 2010 in Las Vegas, it was great to have met up with many people, some of whom I’ve known and talked regularly with for 2 years or more over skype and AIM.Note: If you missed the first part, ...
Affiliate Summit West 2010 in Vegas was a great event and well worth the 20+ hours it took to travel each way from my home in Singapore. It was great connecting with old friends and make new ones.Rather than one megapost, I’ll do some Hiro Nakamura style timeshifting and jump between people and places and ...
As mentioned in my last post, I had a great time in Vegas, meeting up with old friends and making new ones.I know sure if it’s a perceptual thing, but I seem to have met more media buying affiliates and international affiliates (especially from Israel) this time round.The biggest shift for me in 2010 is ...
Affiliate Summit founders Shawn Collins and Missy Ward put up another smashing show in Vegas this time round and a summary/wrap-up post will be coming up in the next couple of days, but first I want to go through some tips to make the trip pay off big time for you.For the moment, forget writing ...
Ok, it’s not 12 hours till Affiliate Summit West starts, but it’ll be 12 hours till I get on the plane.Unless I get waylaid along the way, I should make it to most of the sessions/events I’ve recommended in my earlier post.-Yet more tips for Vegas:Bring chapstick and use it: I’m no Edward Cullen, so ...
