DPR Affiliate Marketing Blog

Archive for June, 2008

I decided over the weekend to take this CommentLuv list one step further. I started wondering what value the lists had in themselves. Not much. You can click each link, visit the blog and find out that you have nothing to say. After all, you should just be posting worthwhile comments and not forcing yourself to say something just because you get a link back to your site.

I thought I could add another feature here. We will see how it works out. It’s basically a Google Alert that I get daily and have for about a year. Every now and then there’s a gem.

Looks like the future is bright for affiliate marketing, as long as you learn your stuff. It looks like the only wild card preventing us from making any more money is Google. But Google is no problem as long as you build quality sites. So the news is basically the same as before. "Don’t piss off Google."

But who needs news like this to choose affiliate marketing. It’s the ultimate test of stepping away from your day job to freedom in your own business you created. A business where you don’t have a boss, client, or customers to answer to.

Okay, here is the second list of CommentLuv Blogs. It took a while because of other projects I got myself into. A lot of you commented on my first post asking to list your blog. I’ve got those and a few more. The third one in this series will probably take just as long and by that time hopefully enough bloggers will be using this plugin to build a fourth and fifth list. These blogs are in no specific order. The numbers are for my benefit, to help me count.

The first list of CommentLuv Blogs.

1. An Eclectic Mind

It’s not what you think, this one is a little bit different so read on…

One major problem that people face as an affiliate marketer is that not enough online merchants know how to sell a product. You know what I mean right?

It’s easy to drive traffic to a merchant’s page, but once they get there, there’s not a lot we can do to secure the sale. If the merchant can’t close the deal properly for us, it’s bye bye ROI.
