Affiliate & Article Marketing Guide | Earn $100 a Day in 60 Days
Reaching $100 a day ($3000 a month) often seems like an unreachable target for many.
But it really is possible and not that hard to achieve if you focus and put in the effort.
Here I am going to provide you with an example of how this can be done in 1-2 months working just a few hours each day.
Let’s break it down.
- We’ll promote an affiliate product that pays roughly at least a $25 commission.
- I’m going to pick a real tangible product that is in high demand.
- After looking around the product I choose is a High Definition Television.
- I now look in Amazon’s bestsellers to see what is popular.
- The most popular HDTVs are Samsung models roughly priced between $500 - $2000. Amazon pays a 4% commission on these so if I sold a $1000 TV I’d get $40.
Now How Do I Make Money With This?
- First I will make a quick website that I can create a price comparison page on. I want to compare at least 3 prices from around the web for the particular model I choose to promote
- I join the Amazon Affiliate program and also two other affiliate programs in Commission Junction that sell this TV. These pay between $25 and $150 for each sale I generate depending on the model and the particular affiliate program.
That means I need between 1-2 sales a day on average to reach my $100 a day goal - see how real this goal is becoming!!!
- To get started I simply make a page that compares the three prices outlining the best price. This page is useful to visitors as they can quickly find the cheapest TV while I get paid a commission… brilliant.
Now all I need is traffic…
- I give the price comparison the title of:
"Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch HDTV Price Comparison."
I also fill it with lots of content about the TV to make sure I can attract lots of SE traffic.
- Now I need to build links to the site to help get SE traffic. I will do this with article marketing.
This is where I write an article and submit it to xxx number of directories. The articles give linkbacks to my site (helping to get more SE traffic) and also the articles can get traffic themselves (as they also rank in the search engines) meaning the users will click the links in the article and land at my price comparison pages.
- What I don’t want to do is write 1 article and submit it to 100 directories - this is fine but not the most effective way as Google will treat 99% of them as duplicate content.
- Instead I will write one article but use JetSpinner (free) to spin it into 100 unique articles with unique titles.
This way the chance of being hit for duplicate content is less - and each article will be slightly different and therefore get higher search engine rankings for slightly different phrases.
How to write the articles for traffic
- The most important thing in an article is making sure the title contains a strong keyword phrase. See my post on this here.
- I did a search for a "Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch HDTV" in Google. There were NO exact matches.
WOW!!!! I can really break into this little niche very easily.
- I could come up with plenty more little variations like:
Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch TV
Samsung LNT 4661F 46 inch HDTV
Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch High Def TV
Samsung LNT 46 inch HDTV
Samsung LNT4661F TV etc…
- Using Jetspinner I could create 100 variations of my article title to be used in my article submissions.
- Chances are some of these articles will hit the top 10 in Google, MSN and Yahoo and people will read the articles and click through to my price comparison site. Plus the extra link backs will also raise the rankings of my price comparison pages.
Rinse and Repeat
- Each day I make a new price comparison page for a different HDTV model on my site.
- Each Day I submit 100 variations of my article to 100 directories. The articles links back to my new price comparison page.
- Each submission of 100 articles drives ends up a trickle of traffic (say just 10 visitors a day).
- After 1 month I have had 30 submission and get 300 visitors a day. Because the traffic is so targeted and the page I drive visitors to is actually encourages people to buy from the cheapest vendor, for every 300 visits I get at least 1 sale.
- That’s at the very least $50 a day - but probably more if I get higher conversions.
If I do exactly the same in the next month then I’ve reached my $100 a day!

Cool article, be good to see the website, any chance of emailing me the url? cheers!

I think I’m going to get back to article marketing, I didn’t think of the “comparing prices” thing. Thanks !

Great idea.
Sucks that they put your link as nofollow on CashInsiderz and that they hid your link under a banner. They appear to be getting quite some traffic through stumbleupon.

I’m interested in exploring JetSpinner further and note what you say about duplicate content. Do you happen to know what the situation is with video. If you submit the same film to lots of sites would that also be seen as duplication by Google?

JetSpinner is a great idea. I’ve been reading and experimenting with niche marketing. I’ve read several places to expect $300 to $500 a month off a simple niche website.
I prefer larger sites because I think you get a synergy from the other pages. Such as getting 100 inbound links per page. If you have 100 pages with 100 inbound links each you have 10,000 inbound links and will be everywhere.

Great post. I agree with the article writing. I use it with much success. The best thing is it is a free marketing source.
Thanks for the info

Doesn’t this just result in diluted information on the internet. It really sounds like you’re just putting together a crappy page and titling it a bunch of different ways. So, you’ve created nothing but junk to scam the search engine companies. You’ve done nothing positive for ANYONE, but yourself. Sweet.

Great post! I will try to apply that as well! thumbs up!
January 1st, 2008 at 11:18 pm
great idea! I have used jetspinner since it started and I run 2 article directories - so i know the power of them. I’ll have to take a closer look at your idea.

This sounds too good to be true. And unfortunately it is.
1. I hate 1 page niche sites they lack depth quality and have no substance.
2. Which directories are you going to spam to get those 100 similar articles in everyday.
3. The concept of making money through affiliate marketing only works when you have a high traffic website with good quality content and lots of subscribers who trust you. even then click though rates can be as low as0.01%
4. You should be encouraging people to create websites with quality content, not spreading more marketing spam across the Internet.
Its a great article if you want to know the best way to quickly double the amount of marketing spam on the Internet. I avoid those 1 page marketing websites like a plague.
Nice website though, and all the best with you $100 a day!

What you’ve described here is very similar to the “bum marketing” method, which can work very well for people who are willing to put in the time to write (or outsource) the articles and target keywords effectively.

you make it sound so easy, but in reality its easier said than done

You make it sound easy. It is possible but that does take a lot of work to do or money to pay someone to do.
