Automated Blogging

Every day, millions of people click online for a variety of reasons. From researching information to finding a date, the internet seems to offer just about everything. Work and employment has by no means taken the back burner. Thousands of people are clamoring to the internet everyday in an attempt to earn a daily income, make some money, or get financially free. And it is being proven time and time again that “there is money to be made on the internet”.

From research projects, to software engineering, the younger and eager generation is presented with a boundless array of opportunities to show off their intellectual properties. Certainly, there is no shortage of work or possibilities online since cyberspace is “virtually” limitless.

But what about investments, network marketing and the vast array of “get rich quick” schemes? Do they really work? Can you really trade in your measly $20.00 for a comfortable paycheck of $2000.00 to $5000.00 per month? The answer is “yes and no”.

Let’s take a brief moment to examine network marketing. As a network marketer, you are selling something that you already own–a membership to a website in most cases. Let’s say you pay $19.95 to become a member of company “Make You a Star Dot Com”. Your $19.95 will be payment for the product (usually information, training and marketing tools). On top of that, you have the potential of making money by “referring others” to the company “Make You a Star Dot Com”. When they join by clicking on your affiliate link, they are placed in your “downline” and you earn a fraction of their membership fee… as well as the membership fee of the people they sponsor–up to five levels deep.

Many people are of the misconception that the membership fee of $19.95 is paid for an income opportunity alone. And that they need to sit back and wait for the checks to start coming in. Of course, it wouldn’t be off the mark to say that these people were deceived into thinking so. Many network marketers do not place emphasis on the value of the product they are selling in their advertising campaigns, or what the product really is or offers. All they tout is the potential to make money just by joining. This is an impractical proposition–if everyone pays 19.95 to receive $5000.00, where does the money come from?

A typical network marketing company may offer a cutting edge training center prepared by experts aimed at making an entrepreneur out of you. It will give you all the tools, advice and information you need to run a successful business, online or off. It may include sections for example on “setting up a legal entity”, “bookkeeping and accounting”, “ecommerce and merchant tools”, “self improvement”, “real estate” etc.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. If you join a network marketing company, by all means, make use of what you are paying for. Go into the training center, or resources section, or back office, or whatever you call it, and max it out…get your money’s worth. The “two thousand to five thousand dollars per month” will come on the side!

In order to become a successful network marketer and earn a six figure income in the least amount of time, any “Guru” will tell you that you need to understand how to use an autoresponder programmed with a newsletter, ezine or follow up emails. It is an established fact that people tend not to buy into a program on the first pitch. So if you’re thinking of investing your precious time into this lucrative field of business, think “autoresponder, follow up messages, and subscribers”. At first, learning how to use such tools might seem like a daunting task, but like most computer technology, once you get to know it, it becomes pretty simple and transparent.

A typical network marketing company will also provide training, tools and resources on how to recruit others into the company. These may include autoresponder training, Google tutorials, web design and various other advertising strategies. However, to avoid the mass of confusion and possible wastage of money associated with first starting off in network marketing, it is best to join under a successful network marketer who will show you exactly how to copy his/her success in a no-nonsense, simple and step by step process.

Automated Blogging

The Guru Slayer, the Day Job Killer, and the Internet Whizz Kid are supposed to be three answers to how anyone can make bucketloads of cash as an affiliate marketer. Do they work? And which is best? Should you part with your money to get one?

Don’t be put off by the names – obviously the Guru Slayer was inspired by the Day Job Killer – it is just that these guys think they need a daft name to attract attention. They are probably right. All three of these guys make a lot of money from affiliate and other sales, but that does not mean you and I can benefit from these methods. So where do we start?

I’ve reviewed all these methods, and was not enthusiastic about any at the start. The Day Job Killer follows on from Affiliate Project X, and is a thorough review of some really interesting undercover techniques that don’t require you to have a web site. What you do need is quite a bit of time to do your research and find the best keywords and advertisements to run.

The good thing about it is that you do not need to spend a lot of money on tools or products. You can do most of this research just by surfing the net. Some of these methods require you to be a bit hard-nosed, and not worry if you upset a few people.

The Whizz Kid himself, Steven, is an upstart, who is doing very well out of affiliate sales, but he spends the first 20 of the 50 pages telling you about things most people who have read a bit of stuff on the internet and bought a few e-books will know. Later on he does talk about some methods you can use but they are not new.

Whizzkid is self-serving

In fact, the only thing you get that is new, so far as I could see, is a web page or two to sell his Whizzkid book – the thing you’ve just bought. Well, that is affiliate marketing, to be sure, but it is self-serving. No doubt loads of people have got the web site, dutifully signed up at quite an expensive web host, and then found that they did not make any money. I’m sure you can make money this way, but it is limited, and the Whizzkid book will not be in vogue for very long. No, that is not the best way of starting as an affiliate.

OK, then what about the Guru Slayer? Well, I will say this is different. It follows on from Dominating CB. Yes, this is about affiliate marketing, but Andrew also reckons you need our own products to make money on the internet, and in this case the affiliates are the people selling your product. He gives some advice on how to go down this route, and this is an interesting way of building a business. He does make the point that you need to work his methods as a business to make money with affiliate or product sales.

Andrew also shows how he made $39,014.56 in affiliate sales selling, guess what? Day Job Killer! This should get you excited, but there is a slight catch – you need a big list of potential buyers before you can use this method, and he has just that. Sure, he shows you what you need to do to build your list, and so long as you are patient you can make this work.

But I did find some really good stuff in here, such as:

Pitfalls to avoid, and how to maximize profits – page 21;

The best places to advertise – pages 31-32;

He gives his methods for getting traffic beginning on page 33;

Several of his actual letters that made him money – these are scattered through the book:

On Page 48 he reveals some really good affiliate programs that pay well and make good sales – I will tell you here and now that I have never seen any other marketer reveal this sort of stuff. So these things get Guru Slayer the thumbs up.

Once you put all this together, you will see that here is something that will help you make money on the internet. I recommend the Guru Slayer so long as you are ready to build a list of subscribers, and want to build a business.

On the other hand, if you want to start making money straight away, I recommend Day Job Killer. The methods Chris uses can be duplicated by anyone, and so long as you keep a tight control of your advertising budget, you can make good money with the minimum of ’stuff’.
