Members Rule - Another HUGE traffic exchange!

Back in february i wrote a bit about EasyHits4U, the trafficexchange with nearly 1.5 million Members Rule.
members. Today I will tell you about another huge TE;

Members Rule is a manual traffic exchange that ,, owned by the legendary Vern Chumbley, have over 200.000 active members, a massive amount of eyes for the site you're promoting, and is still growing (over 700 new members this month so far). The site is, of course, free to join. When you sign up for your free account, and view 50 pages, you will get a sign-up bonus of 50 page views, 2500 banner ads and 2500 text ads. Personally I love those banners, they rock!

You also get a login bonus every day simply for opening your start page, surf codes with additional bonuses, daily surf bonuses, money contests, a downline builder and much more.

Have a look, after all; It is free!

Clickbank Affiliate Magic - another way to get sales

A while back, a month or so, I briefly wrote about a program called "CB Passive Income" by Patric Chan (clicking the link takes you to that post). Since I am all for multiple streams of income, in my opinion the only way to do some real money online, I always look out for new and innovative ways of making a few sales, getting referrals and so on...

I found one, again, called "CB Affiliate Magic". It is a catalog builder application for Clickbank affiliates, and promises a simple and easy way to create catalogs in different niches within a minute. You can generate a nice HTML-code that you simply copy and paste into your website, blog or Facebook page.

The software really seem promising and I will definitely have a closer look at this one as soon as I get the time for it. The one thing that a bit feels disturbing to me is the fact that it is so cheap, could a thing like this really work?

Payza and Two Canadian Brothers Accused of Money Laundering!

This does not look good:

Payza and Two Canadian Brothers Accused of Operating an Unlicensed Money Service Business and Money Laundering.

Two Canadian brothers, Firoz Patel, 43 and Ferhan Patel, 37, have been indicted by a federal grand jury in the District of Columbia on charges alleging they operated an Internet-based unlicensed money service business that processed more than $250 million in transactions.

According to the indictment, Payza’s customers included Ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes and a child pornography site. The Patels opened bank accounts in the United States and laundered their illegal proceeds through those accounts.

The defendant is accused of operating a money transmitting business that operated without the necessary state licenses and knowingly transmitting funds that were derived from illegal activity from in or about March 2012 until the present.

Traffic-Splash - One heck of a traffic exchange

A few years back, in April of 2009 to be precise, I wrote a short thingy about a traffic exchange (TE)Traffic-Splash. Today, when I looked at it, I am pretty sure I didn't write it myself - instead I used a prewritten text meant to be used in email marketing campaigns.

Well, here is a new try at this one. Traffic-Splash deserves more than just a few copy-paste lines.

Traffic-Splash is owned by Paul Kinder, Robert Puddy and Josh Abbot + a customer care team of another three people. You are very well taken care of! As for now it has more than 190.000 users to prove that, and the TE is still growing. Of course, it is free to join!

One of the really nice things with it, is the fact that you can do some social branding of yourself - insert your FB-page, twitter, Skype, YouTube or Blog. And the chat. Chatting with your fellow surfers is always fun.

The commissions you get are paid out on Fridays, to your PayPal or Payza account, and the minimum payout is $10. You really do have to enter a place for them to pay your money, if you don't they take them back after 6 months. I know, this happened to me when I was off doing other things for a while. As they say on their site "The affiliate program is a bonus for active members, not a right of membership. If your account becomes inactive you will not be eligible for the affiliate program."

Well, enough of the praising - Head over to Traffic-Splash and have a look for yourself. Happy Splashing!

Cash Siphon System - a program by Ewen Chia

Lately I have been talking a lot about Patric Chan, I've featured a couple of his programs and a free ebook he gives away earlier, today we will have a brief look at another guru - Ewen Chia.

Since starting as an Internet marketing pioneer in 1997, Ewen Chia has come a long way. These days he is often recognized as “The World’s #1 Super Affiliate” and his name is synonymous with Affiliate Marketing, although that is not all he does.

He is the creator of programs like “Secret Affiliate Weapon”, “Autopilot Profits” and an online coaching program called “Super Affiliate Cloning Program”, that generated sales of US$1.497 million in 36 hours.

Not bad. Not bad at all. Don't we all wish we could have done that?

Now he's come out with a program called "Cash Siphon System", that I am sure will be a huge success among affiliates. As all of his programs. I will not do any sale speach about it here, it would be way too much to handle, instead I urge  you to head over to his site and have a look for yourself what he has to say.

"FreeBitco.in"... no, it is not a fraud or a scam.

I am having serious trouble finding out why so many people, in different forums and blogs, claim that the faucet "FreeBitcoin" is a fraud and a scam. And it seem to be very hard to find any new posts about it too, most of the stuff I find out there is many years old.

For starters, I have got paid every single time. And those satoshis are paid very fast, too. I've had no problems whatsoever. Ever.

So. What is FreeBitcoin? FreeBitcoin is a faucet with a couple of twists. Once every hour you can participate  in a free lottery, where you can win satoshis for up to 200 dollars worth. That amount is a constant, it is the amount of satoshis you win that fluctuate due to how much a single bitcoin is worth at any given moment. And you get 50% of the amount your referrals win.

Every time you press that "roll-button" to get satoshis, you also get tickets to the weekly lottery, where ten lucky numbers win a decent amount of satoshis. You also get tickets when your referrals claim their satoshis. And when you play the Hi-Lo game. The Hi-Lo is, as it says, the basic game where you guess if a number comes up - double your bet or loose it. We all know how that work.

Also, when you press the roll-button, you get reward points. Those can be used to buy electronics, gift cards, tickets and bonuses.You receive 2 free reward points for every free BTC roll you play, 1 points for every roll your referrals play and 1 points for every 0.00000500 BTC that you wager in the Hi-Lo game.

If you have more than 30,000 satoshi (0.0003 BTC) in your FreeBitcoin account they pay you an  interest on your full balance everyday. The interest is now 4.08%. They also pay you 25% referral commissions on any interest earned by your referrals. Oh, and you get 50%

I use auto withdraw, the other options are "slow" and "instant", so on every Sunday - if I have more than the minimum amount in my account - all of it is sent to my Payza account.

And yes, I have got my payments fast and on time many times. FreeBitcoin have been around since 2013 and my guess is it will be here for a very long time to come.

Blogging and Adsense... making money with it?

No. My answer is absolutely no. I have been blogging for years - different types of blogs, from local news (that one was extremely successful, by the way) to blogging about food and wine. And never made any significant money from Adsense. On the other hand, I got banned from using it years ago... and that might have a small impact on the results.

That said, there was a story a few years back - yes, a true one naturally - about a little girl who like every other little girl loved Disney characters. She loved all of them, not only the princesses. Every day she wrote some story about some of the characters, googled a nice picture of it and put it in. To her fathers amazement he suddenly realized the girl was making thousands every month with her little blog.

Well, there's for sure  many more stories like that going around and many people actually make a lot of money with their blogs. But it is very demanding - lots and lots of hard work. You have to be consistent and write something really good, fun and interesting every single day. For a long time.

And, of course, there are a lot of other tactics too. There's a lot of litterature about this out there, most of it real crap, but i found a nice little book called "Making Sense of Google Adsense" that claim to have almost every answer on how to setup Google Adsense and how to make money with it.

If you feel like trying Adsense out, go ahead have a look. The offer seem to give you a lot of extras too, and those are always fun - very often more rewarding than the offer itself.

Mini-course in e-mail marketing by Patric Chan...

Yes, I know. It might seem like I have a thing for Patric Chan, and I admit I kind of have. The stuff he provide for us is simply amazing! A while back I posted about the free "72 amazing ways to internet profits" he gives away for free. You can check out the post HERE.

Well, yesterday, in my post about free safelists, I briefly talked about the importance of writing good sales-letters when you do e-mail marketing. Surprise, surprise, Patric Chan made a mini-course, called "Mini-course 2.0", on that subject too. What makes this one so amazing is the fact that you get to download different templates where you simply fill in the details about your offer and voilá - you are ready to send yor mail!

The course consist of four modules, as follows:

Module #1: Optin Page. You’ll discover how to layout a money-making plan as well as layout a persuasive, high-converting opt-in page to get website visitors to subscribe.
Module #2: Mini-Course Creation. This is where you’ll find out how to create a mini-course that will have subscribers beating a path to your opt-in page subscription form.
Module #3: Email Strategy. Discover how to convert your subscribers into customers who buy from you again and again. This is where the money’s at.
Module #4: Traffic Generation. Get traffic to your opt-page in order to build a big, responsive list and of course, make money from it.

So, head over there and have a look - I promise you it is worth your time!

Safelist Marketing - a few comments...

I am pretty sure I have, at least briefly, talked about safelists before. However, I think a few points every now and then are always at place.

First of all, if you’re not already familiar with the term, a safelist is comprised of internet users who have agreed to provide their email addresses in exchange for the ability to regularly promote to the list’s membership. Usually there are hundreds, even thousands or hundreds of thousands, of users in a list - so it may be a very good place to do your promotions. There are free safelists and the ones where you pay for the opportunity to mail the list. Briefly a few points on the free ones:

Most of the free safelists out there are credit-based ones, so you basically get to send as many mails as you read. You get all the mails the other members send out, you open them and read them for a certain amount of time before you throw them away. Easily put.

And that can, believe me, be a real pain. You very soon may have your mailbox full of mails, thousands of them, and you have no time to open them, even less to read them. If you have joined a multitude of different safelists this will very, very soon be such a big problem so you simply give up with them. And with your current mail-provider.

And giving up is not a good option, how can you sell anything or get referrals if you don't show your stuff to people? Henry Ford, the business magnate, put it well when he said; A man who stops advertising to save money is like a man who stops the clock to save time.

I recommend you get a completely different mailing address, one from g-mail is excellent, and set that up for your safelists. That way it won't interrupt with your daily life in a harmful way. Be sure to absolutely NOT use your main email for this.

I will not go into any particular safelist this time, this is gettin long enough as it is, but I can say that the ones I use most at the moment, of the free ones, are European Safelist, Adchiever and Adsolutionline. If you click on those links, you get to their promotionpage and can see for yourself what they have to offer.

The most important thing, one that so many people seem to overlook completely, is the content of your mail. You have to write a good-looking and a selling letter, or the ones getting it will not care for anything else than the credits they get for opening it.

LinkedIn - A social media for your business...

LinkedIn is a - way too often overlooked - way to get lots of traffic, sales and perhaps most importantly networking with future contacts to whatever your business may be. I have to admit that I have been very, very lazy in using LinkedIn myself over the years. And that I say with a huge amount of regret.

Well, anyways, LinkedIn - for those of you that don't know it - is basically a social media for businesses. There are over 300 million worldwide users and new ones are joining every second. It is HUGE!

I read a bunch of articles from sources like Forbes, Time, Fortune and many more - yes, I follow most of those on Twitter - and it suddenly struck me; This is way more important for us marketers and affiliates than any Facebook will ever be.

I found a nice little program that shows you all about marketing on LinkedIn called Linkedinfluence, created by Trevor Turnbull, that even shows you how to do marketing with a zero-budget, and that is very important for me when trying out something new!

Head over to the Linkedinfluence homepage, found HERE, read about it for yourselves; I am sure you can learn something just from the salespage :)
