Second Tier is a Valuable Addition to Affiliate Earnings

If you want to minimize your efforts and get maximum from affiliate marketing, you should look at two-tier affiliate programs. To those who are not familiar with affiliate marketing, two-tier affiliate programs is an attractive feature of an affiliate program where affiliates are allowed to sign-up additional affiliates below them. So, when the sub-affiliates otherwise known as second tier affiliates, earns a commission, the affiliate above receives a commission too. Definitely, two-tier affiliate programs could mean a stream of income and be a superb moneymaking experience.

To succeed with two-tier affiliate programs great work needed in building up a network of people that sign up after clicking your affiliate link. It is not easy, but two-tier affiliate programs reward affiliates generously for signing up sub-affiliates. As well as earning commissions on your sales, you earn commissions on their sales. If you want to use two-tier affiliate program to generate more revenue, make sure that you thoroughly choose your affiliate program. Choose those affiliates merchants, who offer real time statistics, and supplies affiliates with a proven and tested marketing tools with high conversion rate.

If you are thinking that you can depend on your second tier to do the entire job for you, you are wrong. If everyone joins these programs with the intention to sign up other affiliates and hoping those affiliates will make money for them, neither they nor anyone else will earn any money. The surest way of good earnings from affiliate programs is to do the work yourself. However, when you start making money from second tier, it becomes a valuable addition to your main affiliate earnings.

Interview with Michael Cheney ( with Free AdSense Ebook)

So what made you get started with AdSense?

I was looking for a way to monetize some of my websites. AdSense is such an easy thing to get started with the eye for it would be a great way to start earning more money without actually putting into much more effort. I think as soon as you see the first earnings coming into your account you get addicted to AdSense. I know is what happened to me and since then I've just spent time working out how to earn more and more each day.

How much do you make with AdSense?

Some days I can earn close to $1000 and others it's less than that. But it all comes down to how much time and effort you devote to creating a quality site that people like visiting. AdSense is not what my business is based on by any means - but it is a great way to earn revenue almost on autopilot.

What is the biggest mistake people making with AdSense?

Probably the biggest mistake people make is thinking the AdSense earnings are easy to achieve. It is very easy to get started but as I learned it takes a lot of effort to increase your earnings. I got really downhearted whenever I would log in to my account to see that I had only made a few dollars. And that's when I decided to spend months and months of my time learning everything I could about AdSense.

I basically buried myself away and devoured every single piece of AdSense information I could find. I ran thousands of AdSense tests and started to see a dramatic effect on my click through ratio and therefore on my earnings.

This is why I'd decided to record the videos - because I knew that it would help people who were in my position to also increase their earnings. I've read an absolute ton of AdSense e-book's but they take so long to go through and always seem to keep information back. With AdSense Videos I knew that I had to tell the story exactly as it is and actually show people and lead them by the hand through the exact techniques that I use to generate large earnings from AdSense.

In your videos you show people how to increase their AdSense earnings - can you give us a taster of this advice?

I don't want to give away my biggest secrets as you can understand! But some of the more basic things that you can do to increase your revenues include using ads that blend in rather than stand out from your content. Flat out the worst thing you can do with an AdSense ad is make it look like the standard Google ad. What you need to realise is that you will get more clicks if your ad actually appears part of your site rather than something that's just been dropped into the page.

What would you recommend that someone do right now to increase their AdSense earnings?

I've created a totally free AdSense minicourse that people can go through to learn some of my techniques. It takes you through the four cornerstone principles that I've used to build up my AdSense empire. You can check it out, as well as all the AdSense Videos.

Is Ewen really the world's No.1 affiliate?

Ewen Chia, who has launched the world's first membership club to train people how to be super affiliates, calls himself "the world's No.1 affiliate" and "the world's No.1 super affiliate". He appears to be claiming that he is the world's highest earning affiliate. But how would anyone know who's number one?

The affiliate marketing industry is huge and complex. There are hundreds of affiliate networks, tens of thousands of affiliate programs and millions of products that affiliates can promote. It is a multi-billion-dollar industry. And that's not including the billions earned from Google AdSense, which many regard as part of the affiliate marketing industry.

So, who earns the most in the industry? Here's one clue... In the Internet marketing field, when there's a major product launch vendors often publish a leaderboard showing the top 10 or 20 affiliates. When Ewen promotes one of these products, he's often the No.1 or No.2 affiliate, or somewhere in the top 10. You probably can't find a more consistent winner in the Internet marketing field. So, he's a really big earner.

However, what about all the other niches? What about some that involve huge revenues, such as online casinos, credit cards or the, um, "adult" industry? Who are the top affiliates in these niches? How much does the world's best PPC affiliate earn? I do not know - and neither does Ewen, because we do not know who that person is.

What I do know is that Ewen often earns staggering commissions when he hits the No.1 spot on a vendor's leaderboard. He explains how he does that in his new super affiliate membership club, taking you step-by-step through the process he uses. It isn't just about generating revenue from affiliate programs. It is about teaching you how to build a long-term business, which earns you dependable and consistent affiliate income every single month. It involves a lot of residual commissions.

Whatever extravagant claims Ewen makes, he is very good at this. I've seen the proof. I've seen several of those vendors' leaderboards. What else could be better than to learn from someone who makes millions doing affiliate marketing? I think this course is best suited for people who have already done some affiliate marketing.

Before you get the course, I just want to make sure you know that the first month of the course contains a section on multi-level marketing, which Ewen seems to be getting deeply involved in these days. When you watch Ewen's videos, listen to his audios and read his transcripts, do not just study his words. Study what Ewen actually does.

This is the course for serious affiliates. Get it.

Project Quick Cash - Got A Minute? Encash It.

* This product are not available anymore - updated 21-April-2011

If you're tired of trying to build an online business and just want to generate some revenue fast, then Project Quick Cash/a> is for you...

For the past six months, Alok Jain, who's been a full-time online marketer for more than four years, has been experimenting with several techniques for generating cash fast from affiliate programs and AdSense. His new 77-page book, Project Quick Cash, will be popular with affiliates who are impatient with solid, long-term business building.

While the book provides step-by-step instructions, with screenshots, it's best suited for affiliates who already have some experience with at least SOME of the following: AdSense, affiliate programs, basic website building, AdWords, blogs, forums and social networking sites.

Alok describes five different techniques. All five techniques go against the underlying marketing philosophy - to build solid businesses that earn a good reputation, attract attention and create long-lasting revenue streams. Alok is doing nothing at all shady, but all five techniques are all about doing stuff VERY fast and generating revenue fast - sometimes within minutes.

An experienced affiliate could do several of these projects in one day. They all have the same goal - to create projects which don't require a lot of time, money or effort, and yet achieve decent returns. Some are zero cost, some require AdWords advertising.

Caution: If you're the sort of person who gives up too easily, this book may not be right for you. All five techniques involve work, and if you succeed with one quick project, next day or next week you'll have to create more quick projects. As the old revenue streams fade away, you'll need to keep creating a series of new revenue streams to replace the old ones.

It's funny how stuff can be right under your eyes sometimes but you don't see it. Find out more about the quick cash techniques here...
