DPR Affiliate Marketing Blog

Archive for September, 2008

To get started, I needed a WordPress theme that had extra page templates without sidebars. This was hard to track down and I have created themes in the past, but I didn’t feel like it this time. These special pages will be the landing pages for my PPC campaigns.

I found the Super Affiliate WordPress Theme from Profit Blogger. It takes some gymnastics to get it, but the theme saves you time and it’s free.

I will be using a page as my homepage on the blog, not the traditional home page. This way I have total control over where people go from the home page.

This post is going to be off the cuff a bit. Just a few ideas I have had about using Zemanta and have yet to test. For a more detailed description for what Zemanta does, check out my post at Bloghology. If all you want is a summary, check out how Zemanta can speed up your blogging by saving you time.

Why?

I got a little bit ahead of myself announcing this plan for one. I didn’t realized that I would be involved in so many other things at the same time. There just wasn’t the time to put all the pieces of the puzzle together. And by the time I did have time, I realized that some of the pieces were missing.

There are plenty of niche blog plans out there. And I have pulled some information from a bunch of them for my own use. I am not going to lie. But the main concept is still different. I really had no idea how to get started and spent way too much time planning instead of just jumping.

-If one person is shelling out money, another is profiting.
-Follow the money upstream to where it finally ends up.
-Anyone making money from you will hide the largest part of how they make money.
-Anyone teaching you to make money is making money somehow through teaching you.

Get Rich Quick

I started reading get rich quick schemes when I was a teenager. At first, I thought there was a possibility of me filling my pockets with cash selling such things as herbal supplements or long distance. But I was just dreaming.
