I would like to inform fellow readers that please be careful if you intend to join cashcliques.com. I just visited their forum board and realised that many members do not receive their payouts. What’s shocking is even advertisers, who have paid for their advertisements, did not see their advertisements showing up. For many days, there have been no advertisements showing up.

Therefore, I would strongly advise you not to touch this Get Paid To Click program.

Now on my “Get Paid To Click” lists are left with these two programs. Thankfully, they are still going strong.

Day 36 (18 November 2007)

28th Commission: $7.10
29th Commission: $4

Both 28th and 29th commission comes from merchants that I have sales previously. I guess I was lucky to find these two merchants in my infant stage of affiliate marketing. But on the other spectrum, I have lots of merchants which can’t seem to convert at all. The key in affiliate marketing is to keep building websites for merchants that convert well for you.

Day 34 (16 November 2007)

27th Commission: $15.45

It was great to reach $100 a day yesterday. So far I have accumulated over $280+ of earnings from commission junction. And I hope I can reach $300 in a day or two. This is totally unexpected when I first started out. I have no experience in affiliate marketing back then.

I realized now that affiliate marketing is seriously a good way to supplement my passive income. At the way the income from affiliate marketing is coming, it looks set to overtake my monthly income in eBay in a matter of months.

Day 33 (15 November 2007)

25th Commission: $100
26th Commission: $14.40

This is the first time I have achieved $100+ a day. The results are simply amazing even though I’m only into affiliate marketing for 33 days. No building of landing pages, no adwords, no pay per clicks campaign. Merely building websites for merchants I want to promote.

Today’s combined earning of $114.40 is the highest for me so far.

With the locked in period on the tenth of every month, my network earnings finally improved from “NEW” to one bar. My target is the full 5 bar in 6 months time. My 3 month EPC is still N/A and my 7 day EPC fluctuates between $4-$10.

24th Commission: $8

After taking a log break in building domains, I realize I should start to build some more. The past records have shown that the domains have worked well and the more you build, the more you will earn.

However building domains are not easy.

1) Think of domain names

2) Scrap content

3) Find relevant keywords

4) Register domain names

5) Create the websites and template

What keeps me motivated are the sales that are trickling in.

I wrote slightly more than a month ago about being a complete newbie when it comes to affiliate marketing. No experience. No sales. Nothing at all. You can still find the article here.

Prior to this, I was trying to use this blog and other platforms like pay per click programs to boost my affiliate sales. But it was a complete pure waste of my time as I later on discovered. A month ago, I was reading in digital point forum on affiliate marketing that I chanced upon this application which helps create website content within seconds. I was skeptical initially and took two days to fully understand what this application is all about. It helps when there is a video guide on what the application is all about and how to use it.

Anyway, I thought it will be good for me to try it for one month and track my daily sales before I recommend it to my readers. That’s the purpose of this post - to recommend it to those who need to boost their affiliate sales.

Check out my first month summary at Commission Junction here.

Summary Of My First 31 Days In Affiliate Marketing

It is only the middle of my second month and my income for this month is already more than 2 times than what I get in my first 30 days. I’m quite amazed at the results. Never could I imagine this a month ago.

What this application does

- Helps you generate keyword-rich content for your websites in seconds. The application allows you to choose from content source such as google, google blog, wiki, yahoo news.

- With these keywords, it helps to get your websites indexed in search engines like google and yahoo

Primary Use

- Commission Junction. First month sales was about $150. Now I’m only halfway through in second month with commissions standing at $350. Total about $500 since the day I started using this application.

- What you have to do is find merchants in CJ.com who accept you into their programs. Scrap their products link and keywords. Registered at least five domains for each merchant. Use the application to generate content rich websites for you. Import the keywords you have scraped a while ago. No promotion is needed. Repeat the same steps for the next merchant.

- You don’t have to bother about websites once you finished creating them. Move on. The application will do the promotion for you. You merely have to build more domains for new merchants.

Other uses

- So far I have used it on other affiliate network like Clickbank. I created ten websites for this niche, and so far they have garnered 6 sales (total $90+) for me in a month.

- I have use it to gain referrals for Get-Paid-To programs like emailcashpro. About 10 new sign-ups in 10 days.

- Other members have used it to redirect to Made For Adsense (MFA) sites.

- There are so many ways you can use it. No boundaries. No restrictions. Up to your own creativity.

Warning

- This is not a quick get rich application. You need to put in a lot of effort to build websites and maintain your server.

- Steep learning curve. I took about two weeks to totally figure out how to maximize the potential of the application. Installing the application was very hard for me who has nil experience in server. I paid a member Steelwave to do the installation for me

Interested Party

The programmer of this application limits 100 subscribers at any one time. I’m not sure if there is any slot now. You have to check out the forum.

I will strongly urge interested party to sign up for this application through my affiliate link here. I understand that the learning curve is steep and will offer a two weeks consultant period for people who sign up under me. The onus will be on you to ask me any questions. However no question such as which merchants and niches convert will be entertained. I will answer question like how to generate keywords, domains and issues pertaining to the application. You can also ask me questions like the recommended number of keywords that should be placed in one domain.

By all means you can sign up without my affiliate link here. I won’t force you. But it will be quite hard for you to find someone helpful to answer your doubts faithfully and truthfully. Everyone view one another as competitors in affiliate marketing.

I wish everyone the best in their affiliate marketing journey!

Time passes. I started promoting merchants with Cj.com on 13 October 2007. Prior to this, I have never tried affiliate marketing before and my experience is nil. I took a few days to get the hang of what is affiliate marketing. The stumbling block for me is not all merchants in Cj.com accepted Singaporean publisher. It doesn’t matter to me. Their competitors accepted me and in return I promote these merchants who supported non-US publishers.

Commission Junction

After 31 days or one month experimenting with affiliate marketing, I managed to get a total of 23 commissions which sum up to $147.57 from Cj.com. The sales are coming in consistently every day based on the websites I have created since the first day. In a way, the effects are cumulative.

Clickbank

As for clickbank, I only promote one merchant, and I guess I found the wrong niche. It results in a total of one sale at $16.61. Thankfully, this single sale has more than covered my overheads. Clickbank really has the potential to generate commissions if I manage to find the right niche one day. But right now, my hands are full promoting Cj.com merchants.

Conclusion

First Month: 23 Commissions
Commission Junction: $147.57
Clickbank: $16.61

The best thing about affiliate marketing is I do not have to worry about after sales service like packaing the items for shipment and then shipping the item. It is really nice to see commissions coming in one after another while I find the next merchant to promote. It gets really interesting if one is able to find a merchant that can convert well. I’m definitely here to stay.

Day 31 (13 November 2007)

23th Commission: $4.72

This merchant has been converting sales for me many times in a row. It will be a waste if I do not promote this merchant heavily. So far, I have only found about three merchants will can generate repeated sales for me. I guess I have to really experiment more to find more merchants that can convert.

Meanwhile I just purchased an aged domain and it has a google page rank of 4. I promise in the coming days, I will write an article on getting your first sale in Commission Junction and Clickbank and it will explain why we need to have new and aged domains.

Till then, take care.

Day 30 (12 November 2007)

21th Commission: $4.72
22th Commission: $10.43

Today marks the end of my 30 days affiliate journey with Cj.com. The results are unbelievable. I managed to wrap up a total of 22 commissions at $142.85. The first two weeks have been hindered by the setting up of my servers, learning how to look for keywords and stuffs like that. But after I picked them up, I became more familiar with the process and the sales started trickling in from the third week onwards.

Now I’m into the second month, I’m starting to enjoy the hard work that I have put in during the first month. Be sure to stay on and read about my second month in Cj.com.

I will also be writing up a post on how I rack up my first sale in Cj.com in my next post.

Day 29 (11 November 2007)

18th Commission: $25.50
19th Commission: $1.42
20th Commission: $1.28

It is a great day to see three commissions flowing in one after another. With my first month in CJ.com coming to an end, I am pleased to see my earnings breaking the $100 barrier. Bearing in mind that the websites I have created for these merchants will last me for a year.

I have not been building domains actively ever since Godaddy.com stop the $0.99 promotion. I guess I should build more websites in order to get more commissions. And most of the time if I am lucky, the commissions will also pay for my overheads in setting my server and domains.

Meanwhile, stay tune to my next post which will wrap up my first month commissions in CJ.com.
