Well today is a new bright and sunny day. Yesterday I spent way too many hours on the internet that is for sure. Busy doing lots of tasks yet really accomplishing nothing except for writing an amusing post. Enough, it's all done!
Today I'd like to draw attention to my affiliate links over on the right side of my site. Many of the hundreds (LOL) of people (ok maybe 1 or 2) who read my blog from time to time are probably wondering what on earth Billy Blanks and The Firm DVDs are doing on here. They really have nothing to do with my affiliate marketing interests. Or do they?
If you read Holly Mann's
Honest Riches (any of them really) she always promotes honesty. That is what we really admire about her isn't it? That she tells the truth? Well I try to keep to her strategy of truth and honesty when trying to make money online. All of the products I've listed anywhere on this blog I have found some good use of. Shall we go through them just to make sure?
Well - any of the links to
Holly Mann or
Honest Riches are a given right? We don't really need to get into that too deeply because those products are really why I am writing this blog in the first place.
Rich Jerk - well Kelly Felix and
Rich Jerk I can't ignore now can I? This was the very first internet marketing ebook I ever bought and read. Although it dulls in comparison to
Honest Riches I have to give it the credit it deserves. His approach, although criticized, works or I and thousands of others wouldn't have bought it now would we? And to be honest it was because of
Rich Jerk that I posted affiliate links on my main business' website - and made money! It also opened my eyes to the possibility of importing goods from China as an option (but not one that is without risk at the present time). So for the cheap price of $14.95 it was definitely a good purchase. Kelly Felix started paving my road so I have to list his ebook
Rich Jerk - sketchy or not!
Butterfly Marketing - well Holly Mann claims that Mike Filsaime taught her so much so I have to have him on her don't I? I follow his site and watch whatever I can get from him from time to time. Holly seems to like him so it seems like a natural progression in the internet marketing food chain that I promote him too.....
Clinique - I am a woman, I like makeup and skincare just like we all do. Simple as that. I grew up buying Clinique stocking stuffers for my mom for Christmas - and she looks great! Simple!
Bluehost - I use them for all of my domain purchases and most of my hosting. They are economical and their control panel is excellent - so many options. I use them so why wouldn't I list them? Correct?
Billy Blanks' Taebo,
The Firm,
Kettlenetics,
The Ballet Bible - I love fitness, running, aerobics, dance, etc..always have. Trying to make money online is not the only focus in my life - I actually do have one and it includes interests that do not involve the computer. (Yes really!) I believe a healthy lifestyle is important because without your health you have nothing. I also own these DVDs and have done all of them in my basement in front of the television, jumping around and looking quite the site I'm sure. And no, I didn't buy them through my affiliate links (although I wish I had known about affiliate links way back then - it would have been cheaper). You see there have been some points in my life where either I couldn't afford a gym or like now when I just don't have the opportunity to go ( a 2 year old consumes all of your spare time). So workout videos have helped to keep me in shape.
KB Toys - I am a mom so it wouldn't be a 'mom kinda site' without a recommendation for children's products. I have bought from
KB Toys retail stores and really like their products and selection. I bought my daughter her first Barbie car there for only $9.99 - great price! So why wouldn't I recommend their online store? I plan to do my Christmas shopping from their online site this year.
Dreamtime Baby - well this is my first fib - I haven't ordered from them and don't know the quality of their products. But still thinking I'd like to have baby #2 this will be one of the places I purchase items from. Their products are soooo cute and soooooo enticing. Why wouldn't I recommend them? Take a look and see for yourself.
Well - there you have it! I hope I have legitimized all of my affiliate links. In my venture to make money online I am also promoting the products that I have used and would recommend to friends and family. Affiliate marketing doesn't have to be about scams and internet gurus feeding you a bunch of baloney and wanting to dip into your wallet for their own interests. You can actually make some money online simply telling people about what you like and recommend. Internet marketing SHOULD BE similar to having a phone conversation with your girlfriend. You talk about what stores you shopped at last week, what toys you picked up for the kids, what new product of makeup you love and how to get rid of that darned baby weight!
.......a conversation with a girlfriend.......affiliate marketing......one in the same really.....
.....Don't you think?
