Affiliate Making Money




Affiliate marketing is easy once you find the tactics that work for you. The time it takes to become a master depends upon your learning abilities and also your problem solving abilities. There are no rules carved in stone. Everything changes very fast, so you need to change your strategies, too, every day. One method that was extremely great two years ago and you read about it in an e-book might not work today, or might work differently.


The pitfall of most e-books is that they are only listing the general processes and don't give you a step-by-step guide to affiliate marketing. Since there are literally hundreds of tactics to be successful, it would be a very long book to cover every single method. That's why those so-called gurus are only writing about their favorite methods, which would possibly not be the methods that you can utilize the same way.


Not every method will bring in the same results, so you will need testing. You must choose one that is the most appropriate for your personality, and abilities, too. Loads of people find some traffic generation techniques boring or too complicated. That is why about 90% of people starting with Adwords will fail, because they don't like testing and analyzing the keywords. If you are this kind of person, don't even go there, or you will end up losing money instead of making affiliate revenue. Although, if you are a person who loves sharing and communicates easily, social networking would be your best method.


Prior to spending much money on ads, it is always useful to test an offer on free traffic. I started to apply this rule long ago and it has already saved me a lot of money. If I am sending out a free solo e-mail for my list, for example, and it turns out to be a success, I might consider buying e-zine advertising and advertise that way. But if not, I can still do split-test campaigns, therefore maximize conversions prior to paying for traffic.

Shazam Currently Boasts 30 Million Total iOS and Android Users


According to Mobile Entertainment, music discovery service Shazam now has 25 million iPhone and iPod Touch users and a total of 5 million users using its Android application, continuing to add more than one million users a week.


With so many users interacting with its service, Shazam’s app now tags 3 million tracks a day, facilitating between 250,000 and 300,000 track purchases, a conversion rate that fluctuates between 8-10%.


In December we noted that Shazam has surpassed the 100 million users mark, it has now become clear that this accounts for all of the people that have used the service in the ten years since the platform launched.


Mobile Entertainment estimates that Shazam earns between $10,000 and $15,000 a day from music referrals (using a track price of $0.99), equating to $300k – $450k a month, almost $6 million a year. Shazam offers a free smartphone application but also charges $5.99 for its premium iPhone and iPad app, so its revenues will be substantially higher from the figures quoted just for its affiliate sales.


The company also has sponsorship and advertising agreements in place, this week we brought you news of its partnership with Spotify to allow the playback of tracks using the service.


Whatever way you look at it, Shazam is dominating. The service provides perhaps the simplest of services and its users love it, it’s a money making machine.

If you're like me, you like to read and would love even more to get paid for time spent reading a good book. Well, there's good news! You can enjoy making money writing book reviews online!

You probably already know about Amazon.com where you can write book, movie, and music reviews. Unfortunately, you don't get paid for your reviews on this site. BUT, you can learn alot about how to write a book review by perusing the site and reading what other, more seasoned book reviewers have written. Some of them are quite good at what they do. After you've spent some time on the site, register and write a few book reviews of your own. This will be good practice in the art of writing a good book review. You can also build up a name for yourself in this way which can serve you well later.

If you'd like to get paid for writing your book reviews, consider www.reviewstream.com. At first I was quite excited about this site until I discovered, it can be quite difficult to get the maximum earnings for your review. They list a current pay rate for reviews on their home page. BUT, you only get paid that rate if you meet certain criteria established by them which aren't well defined. If their criteria aren't met, you get paid the "bulk" rate which is the regular rate divided by 5. Since the regular rate is currently $1.50, the bulk rate would be $0.30. Not exactly a strong motivator to write reviews for them. PLUS, you don't get paid until you reach their minimum payout criteria of $50.00. If you can somehow manage to write your reviews in such a way to meet all their criteria, this site might have some potential for making money. As it stands right now, it's a bit of a challenge.

A more promising site is a website called Shvoong at www.shvoong.com. It allows you to write abstracts of books, articles, websites, and more. In turn, you get paid 10% of the advertising revenues your abstracts generate.The minimum payout here is more reasonable at $10.00. Keep in mind it can take alot of abstracts to generate a significant amount of revenue from this site. The site requires each abstract to be from 300 to 900 words in length. if you happen to be able to read and write in another language, you can use your translation skills to earn even more money. Shvoong will pay you 5% of the advertising revenues generated from any abstract you translate into your target language.

Probably one of the more lucrative ways to get paid for writing book reviews is writing reviews for your own website or blog. You can generate revenue one of two ways:

1. By signing up with Google adsense. They give you code to place on your website or blog which will display Google ads targeted to the topic you're writing about. Each time an ad is clicked, you receive a portion of the revenue.

2. By signing up with Clickbank to receive commissions through marketing their affiliate programs. You can include links to specific products that relate to the product you're reviewing in your review. If someone clicks on that link and purchases the product, you receive a commission which can be 50% or higher on digital products.

If you're the kind of person who enjoys the challenge of doing a little more marketing a promoting, writing for your own website or blog may be the best option for you.

As you can see you have a variety of opportunities for making money writing book reviews. Give them a try and see which one works the best for you!
