Confessions of a Lazy Super-Affiliate

I have been a work-from-home dad for the past five years. Once I started having children, and my eldest developed health problems, I became determined to spend as much time with my family as possible.

I have invested hundreds of hours in becoming 'self-educated', by reading books, attending seminars, and experimenting. I've fallen for my fair share of scams (so called easy, or automatic money programs/schemes). I've also invested many hours in:

* Affiliate Marketing
* Ebay Selling
* Creating Info products
* Building Niche Websites
* Network Marketing
* Starting and Running my own businesses

I have found only one thing more irritating than stumbling across a GREAT sales page that prompts you to buy junk - and that is buying something that SEEMS to be legit, spending many hours learning and following it, and then finding out that the author really is making a living selling his book to people like you - not by practicing the priciples he/she laid out in the book. At least in the first case I can demand a refund!

"Confessions" was a breath of fresh air in contrast! Read my review below to see if this is the missing link for you.

The Basics You Want to Know Up Front

The author is Chris Rempel
The eBook is complete - It's not a sales page to upsell you something else
It truely is a 'blueprint' - begining to end
His methods really work (he proves it)
The price is $29.95 (price of a large pizza?)

What Kind of Money are we Talking About?

Chris says that 5 of his affiliate programs ("mini-sites") are bringing in a total of $400 on a bad day. He describes in his sales letter the first time he made over $1000 in a single day (and this kid is 23 years old). Chris is firmly on his way to independently wealthy.

What Kind of Work is Involved?

Chris describes himself as a "Lazy" affiliate. He does this because his approach is to build "set-and-forget" mini-web sites that, once in place, bring in daily income - forever.

If you purchase his eBook (and he offers an 8 week money back if not satisfied guarantee) he will show you one of these "mini-sites" that he built in two days. His next step is to spend either a few hundred dollars - or a couple weeks of evening work - doing the SEO groundwork to attract the traffic. The money starts trickling in after the first week or two - then ramping up to an average of $80 a day after two or three months. His work is long done by this time.

I've built my first two 'mini-sites' following his blueprint exactly. As he states in his book, the first one is the hardest. I just took it one step at a time, with his book printed out and open next to my computer. At the time of this writing, I have three young children, a pregnant wife, and several businesses I am juggling out of the home office. Yet I was able to have the first site completed in three weeks of stealing an hour or two in the evenings and on the weekends. I then chose to hire out the step by step marketing.

Do You Have the Skills or Whatever Needed to do This?

This blueprint is not for the complete internet newbie - unless you are prepared to invest some hours in getting some basic education in:

Purchasing a Domain Name
Creating a very basic website
Keyword Research

Next, affiliate work is actually work. The way I see it you need self-motivatation to:

* Do some creative writing and thinking
* Work today - for payment in a month or two
* Be willing to learn/try new things

The good news is, done under the guidance of someone like Chris, a week or two of work can pay you every day, for a long time to come.

In every instance where Chris moves onto a 'next step' in his book - he provides links to websites, ebooks, or other resources that he has used to get the education or people in place to get the step done. His 'blueprint' includes plenty of back up research.

In Closing

If you can put together a lens here on Squidoo, or if you have the ability to put together a blog, or even a myspace page - you have what it takes.

With Chris' money back guarantee, you have nothing to lose - and serious time freedom to gain.

We all know inbound links are a way for search engines to "measure" the quality of our websites. I've put together an easy, daily regimen that gives me a couple unique, relevant links on a variety of sites. It goes like this:

1) Set a "google" email alert for the keyword you want to rank for (ie "Bat Control"). Set this alert to be emailed "as it happens".
2) When you get an alert, click the link, and scan the article/blog post/etc.
3) Scroll to the bottom and leave a two to four sentence comment, using the following guidelines:

* Include your keyword in your name (ie "Michael (bat control) Koski)
* Enter your website address and email address
* First sentence compliment the writer ("Great article!")
* Second sentence, refer to one of his/her points ("I wish more people...)
* Close with a thank you ("Thanks for making this known")

Sounds simple right? Here are a few things I've learned about this simple formula:

* My comment is usually one of the first posted - it gets read by everybody
* The author is anxious to get/keep posts at the beginning - yours sticks
* You get a wide variety of links (locations, PR, etc)
* Your links are relevant, one-way, and often result in referal traffic
* Your links build gradually, naturally

As a parting thought - when I get behind on my email and have a bunch of google alerts that I have not checked - I just delete them. More will come tomorrow, and I want to work with the 'fresh' ones anyway, so I don't sweat the deleted alerts.

Hope this is helpful!
