Don't
Dig For Gold, Sell Gold Pans
How
To Get A Free Affiliate Programs Web Site & Directory
Who
do you suppose made the most money during the California gold
rush in the 1800s? It wasn't the prospectors themselves. The
few who really struck it rich were the folks selling the
support services.
Don't
dig for gold, sell gold pans...
Millions
of entrepreneurs are coming on the Internet hoping to strike
gold selling products and services. One of the drawbacks we
all have experienced with affiliate programs is the amount of
time and money required to market each and every affiliate
program effectively.
I
found a solution and it's free. When I learned that the
Directory of Affiliate Programs was offering free copies of
their directory it really got my attention.
What
I found is a new program where you can get your own fully
interactive searchable directory of Affiliate Programs. It's
100% FREE.
Now
you can promote all your Affiliate Programs but you only need
to promote one web site to earn income from 6 to 12 Affiliate
Programs.
To
my surprise all six programs placed on their recommended list
were my best producing affiliate programs already. All six are
proven programs. I have bought the products, used them and
gained benefits.
In
addition all six are free to join. I have made sales and
received commissions. So I can recommend them with confidence.
Chances
are you may already be a member of some or all of them
already. You can sign up to the all six affiliate programs
directly from your admin page from your free directory page.
All you have to do is enter your program's ID# and you get
credit for all sales made from your site.
You
have all seen most of these 6 programs recommended in this
newsletter for some time. They are my best money earners.

I'm
going to resist the temptation to go into detail about the
affiliate programs here. I would suggest you get your own
directory set up while it's still free. You can investigate
each of the programs at your leisure. Links are provided to
sign up with each of them linked to your provided directory.
This
system provides an economy of scale. Every free Affiliate
Options web site that is applied for from your directory site
will already have all the "Recommended" affiliate
programs pre configured and link to your affiliate programs
web pages. If they don't join all six affiliate programs your
ID#s will remain on their pages too.
ADD
YOUR OWN FAVORITE AFFILIATE PROGRAMS
Now
as if that isn't enough, if your favorite affiliate program is
not on the "Recommended List", there is a prime
position on your web site so you list your own favorite
programs in the "Other Programs" section. You may
list up to six of your own programs in this list. There is
also a place where you or others can even list any new
affiliate program not already in the directory.
As
with any quality affiliate program you will be supplied with a
whole collection of free marketing materials. Banners, buttons
and classified ads all set up. All you have to do is cut and
paste them; they even provide a step by step tutorial for
using the marketing materials.
UPGRADE
OPTIONS
Up
to this point everything I have told you about is 100% free. I
have already checked it out and joined and didn't spend a
dime. Most likely you will earn much more from your affiliate
programs just by grouping them together all in one place. Your
follow-up messages are already pre-programmed for everyone
that visits your free site.
The
only way it could get better is if you could do exactly what
the founders of the program do. The problem with doing it all
on your own is that the expertise in research, programming,
writing follow-ups and ads required all take time, and lots of
it. Perhaps one Internet marketer in 100,000 might have enough
skill to successfully go it on their own.
The
founders have already thought of that and provide an option
for you to earn income directly through an affiliate program
that is already built into the system.
For
a charge of $49 you can get the following.
The
permission to grow your own Network of free Affiliate Options
sites. Your network is not limited to levels. This means the
number of sites applied for in your network is unlimited.
Every
free web site that is applied for from your network of free
Affiliate Options web sites will have all the
"Recommended" affiliate programs pre configured and
link to your own affiliate programs. Not everyone will join
all your programs. It's a Win-Win either way. If they join
they are in your downline and if they don't they advertise
your affiliate programs for you. This will be a great boost to
your recruiting efforts as many of the new applicants will not
be affiliates of all the recommended programs. Obviously most
of them will follow your pre-configured link to join.
You
can earn direct and residual income. As an affiliate you will
earn a $15.00 commission on every affiliate signup that is
processed at your web site.
The
$15 commission is paid yearly, so as your network grows you
earn that commission over again every year. I can't think of
any reason why a person wouldn't at least join the free
program. It is just common sense to take advantage of any new
way to earn more income from your affiliate programs.
I
don't know how many times someone has told me that they
visited my site for one reason and ended up purchasing
something different. Most likely you are already doing
promotion for your favorite affiliate programs. Why not expand
the number of products you offer in your business? Promote up
to 12 at one time. In 3 plus years full time I have learned
what features to look for in a good home business opportunity.
I am absolutely sure this one will be one of the big winners.
At
the very least you will want to visit the directory web site
and check it out. I joined and set up all 6 affiliate programs
and a few of my own in less than an hour. Now I can promote
all my affiliate programs at once, head to head with almost
every affiliate program out there.
