Get That Money

Hey everyone,

Just wanted you all to know that I redid my Affiliit review after being a member for 6 months.

If you’re on the edge about joining a program and not sure which one to join, check out my review to see what Affiliit is all about.

I have a pretty sweet bonus package for people that join through my site. It’s nothing fancy, just a bunch of notes I’ve gathered and written up over the course of several months of my experience with affiliate marketing. These will definitely help out newbs.

Best,

Jeff

Hello hello,

This is going to be a quick post and I’ll get to the point: I am offering training to aspiring internet marketers.

The reason I decided to do this is that I am, surprisingly, receiving a lot of e-mails from people asking me for 1-on-1 help and willing to pay.  I have helped these people that have emailed me and they have really appreciated the help that I’ve been able to give them.  This is why I decided to let you all know that this option is available to you.

So, if you’re new and you want help, just contact me.  I have no set price because I feel that every person needs a different amount of help and a unique approach.  I’ve tried almost every type of marketing out there except media buys.  The only form of media buying I’ve done is buying through banner networks.

I would say that my strongest points are PPC traffic and SEO.  I have a system for SEO that is working very well and getting me the rankings that I’ve worked hard to get.  It took a long time and a lot of failing, but my system works better than any out there that I’ve come across.

Contact me if you’re interested:

It’s been a long time since I’ve written here and there’s been a crap load of stuff that has gone on.  I haven’t been doing too much work the past few weeks with school and finals and all of that.  But now I’m back at the grind again and seeing it pay off.  So that part is good.  I’ve been running some ads on Plentyoffish lately and building some sites as well.  My main focus right now is SEO.

I decided to jump in on the internet marketing product release niche and build a site around a product that released a couple of weeks ago.  I was able to get my site in the #1 spot and beat out everyone else.  Unfortunately, I made a dumb mistake a couple of days before the product released and missed out on the 1st week sales.  After fixing the mistake, my site is now back up at the #1 position and hasn’t moved since.  And it’s still making some sales.  So, for my first site ever in a product release, which can be super competitive, I’m holding #1 above everyone else.  That’s damn cool and I’m definitely going to be doing this for future releases since there’s a new product every week.

I also have a few sites in the most random of niches.  I built a few adsense sites but stopped working on those literally the day after I built them.  I’ll come back to them later.  I had too much on my plate and it’s important to focus on no more than 3 things at a time in my opinion.  Have 10 sites, PPC campaigns, CPM ads going and then college on top of all that is waaaaay too much to handle.  Take my advice: Do not do internet marketing while you’re in school.  It’s way too much work.  If you try to do both, you’ll end up falling flat in both.  It’s what happened to me.  Choose either school or business.  That’s my advice of the month.

The new year is coming up and I am definitely stoked.  I got a free ticket to Affiliate Summit in Vegas.  Does that mean I’m going to go?  I can’t say for certain.  I haven’t bought any plane tickets or booked a hotel room.  I know a few people going but I still am not quite sure if I want to go.  There will be more money in this convention than any other place in the world.  The parties are insane.  But I don’t know if I’m going to go.  It will probably be a last minute thing for me.

Some more advice for people out there.  It’s been awhile since I’ve written about society and relationships, which is quite sad because it’s one of my strong points.  It’s important that you set your goals and you see them through.  It’s also important that you only keep people in your life that have just as high expectations in life as you do.  Do not keep people that you find annoying or negative in your life.  It’s useless.  Negativity is a plague and you do not have time to deal with other people’s insecurities.  It’s important that you don’t let anything send you off course from reaching your goal.  Even if it’s your family holding you down.  Don’t let anyone hold you back.  Remember, this is your life.  Your duty in life isn’t to make sure that you’re keeping all of your friends happy.  Your duty is to do what’s best for yourself.  This isn’t a selfish mindset.  It’s your god-given right.  If people are bringing you down and distracting you, it’s time to ditch them and move on.  Let them sit in their mediocrity while you head to the top.  While they’re stuck in their 9-5 for the rest of their lives, you’ll be owning your own business constantly growing as the days go by.  Don’t let anyone stop you.  Once again, only keep people that have similar mindsets as yourself around.  There are two types of people in life: people that see the glass half-full and people that see it half-empty.  A good example is someone that goes to the bar and thinks “wow this is retarded” because they got no game, and a person that goes to the bar and thinks “let’s have a great time!” (this guy always gets laid regardless whether he’s got game or not.  It’s all about mindsets people).

Here are some quotes I grabbed from an article that sums up what I’m saying:

“There are times when you have to let old contacts go because they were dead ends on your path to success.” – suck it up and ditch them.

“People will hate you for achieving success because they did not make it themselves.” – lol jealous noobs

“Successful people are often resented because they do not always reach back and help others to their level.” – I worked my ass off to get here; why shouldn’t you?

“People hate successful people because they are not happy with themselves and choose to blame others.” – It’s not my fault you’re not willing to work hard..

Alright, I will be sure to post in another month from now.  Things are definitely going up hill at this point and I am going to keep working towards my main goal: 6-figures by June 15th.  It’ll happen.

For those that actually visit my site occasionally, then you’re probably aware of Facebook’s recent mass banning of thousands of affiliates.  It’s really not that big of a deal because it’s not that hard to get a new credit card, make a new account, and get running again.  However, I have chosen not to do this in order to force me to learn the multiple ways of driving traffic out there.

I will say that it’s been some fucken hard times the past couple of weeks.  I basically went back to step 1 to learn things that I’ve never had success with (such as google search, yahoo, msn, PPV, SEO, etc.).  I’ve been doing a lot of reading and studying while making no money.  It’s a lot different going from $50-$100+ days on Facebook to $0 days for 2 weeks.  I’ve definitely been feeling pretty shitty lately, but I was expecting it.

The Good News: I went to Tiesto in Minneapolis this past weekend and it was fucking KILLER!  The guy easily puts on the best shows.  I don’t expect to be blown away like this again for a long time (when he returns).  The problem with Minneapolis is the same problem that plagues the upper Midwest: most people just don’t know how to go out and have a good time.  Everyone is so up in there head with their insecurities.  There were times when me and my friends were the ONLY people going crazy and dancing in our area.  Quite shocking.  You would think that if you’re paying $45 for a ticket, you’d make the best of it and have a good fucking time.

Nope.

90% of the girls have a pissed look on their face and 90% of the guys have pussy on their mind.  Fucking Minnesota… when will you people get it?  There is much more to life than vaginas and booze.  Get the fuck out of your hole and live a little.

Ok now onto the news for the next couple of weeks. I am getting my feet wet a bit with Google search.  My accounts are pretty new so I’m getting pretty crappy quality scores, but that’s how the game works.  I think after the next few days with my good CTRs that Google will begin to reward me higher QS.  My click costs are already much lower than what I’m bidding so that’s good.

I also plan on getting into building a multiple number of authority sites for different niches.  Free traffic, little income, but they’re easy to make and when you got 50-100+ pages of products that are being reviewed, the income starts to add up.  Imagine only 20 visitors a month to each page.  It’s not a lot and may not even result in 1 sale.  However, if you have 100 pages, that’s 2000 visitors a month.  If only 1% of those people convert into $35 sales (which is 20 people for you math failures), that’s still $700 bucks a month in free profits and a couple of days worth.  This is definitely one of the easy money making methods out there that anyone can put to use and start making money with.  The only thing keeping people from doing it is time.

Beyond that, I’m also trying to learn these bitch CPA offers.  People make it seem so easy but for some reason, I just fail at getting large amounts of traffic.  Either my bid prices suck or my keyword research sucks (or both).  Work in progress.

Until next time, keeping grinding even when the times are down.  This is probably the worst slump I’ve been in in a LONG time.  But you know what’s good about slumps?  You rise out of them at a level higher than where you were before the slump.  Remember that life works in cycles.  Once you understand that, you will realize that a slump is just temporary and it will only make you stronger.

Recently, Facebook has gotten to be a major dick.  They have been banning people left and right for both legitimate reasons and illegitimate reasons.  I happened to get caught up in this mess and had my account banned from advertising.  They won’t tell me why and this really pisses me off.  I wasn’t doing any rebills or cloaking to illegal offers.  So I don’t know what the fuck they’re smoking over there.  What I do know, however, is that if facebook keeps banning affiliates, they are going to be completely fucked.  90% of the ads on facebook are affiliates.  I think they are banning people that have just had too many ads disapproved, which actually makes no sense at all because they disapprove good ads for no reason.

I can either bitch or moan about it, but fact remains I have to move on.  I haven’t used adwords, msn, YSM, etc. for over 2 months now.  I think the last time I did anything successful on any of those engines was back in July with polls and shit.  Back in July, it was a lot easier to get polls into google and yahoo.  That isn’t the case anymore.  I made a bunch of polls for Yahoo today and they were all disapproved within an hour.  Pretty fucking dumb if you ask me.  Don’t even try getting a poll approved on the google content network.  They manually approve all content network campaigns now and when they see your LP, they’re going to either ban or suspend your account.  You’ve been warned.

This next week is going to be a rough one.  I’ll probably make absolutely no money at all, which sucks after doing $100+ daily on facebook.  This is why you don’t put all of your eggs in 1 basket.  I never had success running on yahoo, google and msn which is why I avoided it.  But now it looks as if I have to learn it.

Time to get rollin’

Jeff

What up bitches,

I’ve just finished cleaning up my site a bit and getting rid of a bunch of old shit that’s useless.  It’s been awhile since I’ve written anything about life and work and $$$.  What better way than to come back and write about the most important part of the dirty?

I learned pretty fast that it’s important to document not just what you wanna do and be in life, but what you DON’T want to be.  It’s extremely important to look at things that way because when you do, it’ll motivate you that much more.

I don’t know about you, but I definitely DO NOT want to want to be a 9-5 bitch struggling for that money.  Fuck that.  I ain’t no bitch.  I will chase paper until the day I die, but I will do it on my own terms and continue to chase it until the day I die.

The problem with most people (98% of all people, actually) is that they have no vision, no drive to succeed and are lazy (usually both).  Ask anyone that’s ever done anything in their life and they’ll tell you they didn’t get there by sitting on their ass.  So get off of yours you lazy fuck and get to work!

Immediate Goals
1. Work on my PPC skills: Get a sale on the content network!
2. Continue to build and SEO my sites.
3. Get two new sites up per week.
4. Get a new article done and bookmarked per week for each site.

3. Learn other methods of money spending.
4. Hit that $1,000 a day mark finally.
5. Have all of my student loans paid off.
6. Work out at least 3 times per week.

Long Term Goals
1. Pay off my car.
2. Help my parents pay off their bills and loans.
3. Get to Europe this summer.

2. I don’t want to be no broke ass bitch.
3. I don’t want to be some skanky ass hoe.
4. I don’t want to be that 9-5 bitch.

Easy.  No go make your goals and get that $.

If you frequent RSD, Mystery Method, Charisma Arts, I-am-retard-arts, you are a fucking moron.  Is your life really that pathetic?  I can understand if you have trouble talking to bitches, but why would you want to sit around and talk with a bunch of other fags that can’t talk to bitches?  It makes no sense.

There is a saying out there that goes “If you think you’re a loser, you are a loser.”  and, more importantly, “You may be cool, but if you hangout with a bunch of losers, you are also a fucking loser.”

It’s all about the mindsets, people.  I’ve been in North Dakota for a long time now and never in my life have I seen so many insecure losers that do nothing to change their life.  If you want to change who you are, then you gotta start changing who associate yourself with. Yes, you’re going to have to stop playing world of warcraft.

So, why do you get suckered into these programs that promise to teach you how to talk to bitches?  It’s like fucking marketing. All these so called “gurus” that act like they’re the greatest in internet marketing sending out their newsletters everyday talking about the latest and greatest thing. Fucking morons. While they’re sitting and typing away, other marketers are actually working and pulling in $10k+ a day. All that these “gurus” have are products for internet marketers.  With out all of you noob marketers, these “gurus” would be no more (thank God).

Anyone that’s ever made it to anything will tell you that in order to get anywhere in life, you can’t be a follower.  All these “PUAs” you guys are so eloquently worship at their forums are morons and you continue to follow in their footsteps.  But they don’t care and they’re way more rich than I could ever hope to be in a year so more power to them (for taking advantage of the weak which is a quick way to get rich real fast).

In order to stop being a moron, you need to find out if experts can walk the talk.  It is absolutely vital that you follow this advice.  If it’s a marketer trying to sell you something, don’t fall for their lame ass checks they show you making money.  Only buy from seasoned veterans that can prove to you that they know what they’re doing (whether it’s through their blogs, newsletters, etc.).  Look to see if their promoting free information.  Usually, guys that give out a lot of free information that is actually good are guys that know what they’re doing (and guys that know how to market).

Don’t be like this moron.  What a fag.

Damn, it’s been almost 2 months since I last posted.

I pretty much took all of July off vacationing and what not. Went to Seattle, Oregon, RENO and the eastern Sierra’s. Good times, lots of booze, too many hoes (in Reno).

Now I have been back for a couple of weeks and I am trying to get my PPC marketing going. I’ve joined a bunch of networks and forums and I will be giving you guys some good information in this area of marketing soon once I get my campaigns rolling.

P.S. Some articles I’ve written lately for some sub-sites I’m building.

What’s up friends,

Almost 1.5 years ago, my dad made me a guitar (because that’s what he does).  I’ve been playing it like mad lately.  It’s hard for me to find the dedication to play it all the time when I’m not in a band.  No more of that dumb talk.  I am going to be dedicating at least 1 hour a day now to improving my technique.  It blows having small hands and a crooked pinky.  I want to cut that thing off and glue on a stick.  Anyways, here’s what my axe looks like.  It’s truly, badass.

Full body image

Carbon-Fiber neck.  Who else makes those??

Thing is badass, I know.  You should hear it plugged in.  My dad uses high quality, heavy woods that hold their tone as good, if not better, than a $2500 Les Paul.  If my dad is feeling generous, you can get one made for around 500.  But it will take a few months, lol.

These are some quotes that I find to be great.  I will add to this post when I come across a great quote that rings true to me.

“Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something.” – Plato

“Courage is knowing what not to fear.” – Plato

“Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death” – Einstein

“Only a life lived for others is a life worth while.” – Einstein

“Everything that can be counted does not necessarily count; everything that counts cannot necessarily be counted.” – Einstein

“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.” – Einstein

Obviously, Einstein said a lot of great things, lol.
