New Affiliate Discoveries

Great news, I got another commission on one of my 30 Day Challenge niche sites. The site that is getting the commissions is only getting about 15-20 hits per day, and I’ve gotten two commissions from it so far, which comes pretty close to the 1 in 200 number that Ed Dale mentions in the challenge. It’s a blog site on a free platform that has only about 9 articles on it, all optimized for the keyword, all good content articles…someone finding my site would find it helpful and is likely to spend time reading.

On the horizontal nav menu across the top is a link directly to my referral site, a web site that sells live plants. I receive a 5% commission for each order placed. Based on my commissions, the orders are averaging about $100 each, which is exactly what they advertised.

On a different front, I’ve got two BANS sites set up (Build a Niche Store), and am getting trickles of comissions on those as well. Again, daily hits are only in the 10-20 range, and I’m still seeing some comissions. The great thing about the BANS sites is that the ebay cookie remains active. If a user who clicked through to eBay from your site purchases anything in the next seven days, you get a commission!

So if you haven’t already, check out both of these things. The Thirty Day Challenge is 100% free, you can start it anytime, and it is packed with incredible information about internet marketing that is easily worth hundreds if not a few thousand in “tuition”…and years of real life experience.

As far as the Build a Niche Store goes, Shoemoney recently did a paid review on it, set up a crappy looking store, and there has been a big influx of new users on the forums. The majority of the sites look just as crappy as Shoemoney’s site.  Mine, however, look fantastic, because I don’t use the default template but instead customize free wordpress templates to make mine stand out.

If you decide to purchase BANS, I’d appreciate it if you used my link above…after all…you heard it here first!  (Maybe).  I also have some recommendations for hosting & domain registration if you have any questions about those aspects, let me know and I can help guide you through your very first domain purchase
