There is still Money To Be Made From Your First Niche Sites
Most Income From Least Effort
OK ..so we are all chasing that elusive niche product that sales on auto pilot and feeds pot loads of cash into our bank accounts!
Stop struggling ..it doesn’t exist !! …. or does it??
I have been promoting Private Label Rights products on the internet for over 6 years now. Some successfully and of course some were a waste of time.
Like most internet marketers I find that some niche products have a limited “shelf life” and sales dwindle into unimportance after a period.
The niche sales site I made in particular for it is just internet junk clogging up a server somewhere. I tend to leave them there just for the back links to my other niche websites in the hope of the odd sales or 2?
The largest part of my time is taken up researching new niche products, building a niche website and promoting it, so I never have much time to revisit my previous niche websites and keep the niche marketing fresh. That’s a very bad habit to get into I know!
Now this is going to shock you …..but not as much as it embarrasses me!!
One of the initial markets I made a niche website for was the Health, Wellbeing & Fitness Niche.
DO NOT DISMISS THIS POST !!! … I know that your initial re-action is ” not that old niche again ! “
This is the god’s honest truth …
….. I make MORE MONEY out of this niche than any other niche I promote ….
That surprises me – and embarrasses me – because …
… I do LESS WORK on that niche than any other niche website I own!!
To add to my embarrassment, the original health niche site I published, has not been added to or promoted in almost a year, and it still makes sales of Health, Fitness & Wellbeing ebooks repeatedly !! …between 4 & 18 a month @ $9.99 …that’s a nice profit.
… and it gets even better than that …
……my health niche ebook reseller web site also promotes membership of the supplier for the Private Label Rights eBooks and I get regular monthly recurring commission which are always well over $100 p.m.….this equates to almost $2000 this year alone.
Because these commissions are paid straight into my PayPal account I rarely notice them and didn’t take up the opportunity to get back to my old health niche site and update it.
My membership gives me with 2 new Private Label Rights ebooks every month in the Health Fitness & Wellbeing niche, complete with sales letter and web site graphics, so I have WELL OVER 24 plr ebooks to add to my health niche website, because its been approximately a year since I last visited the download area.
I have just made a solemn commitment to myself that I will add the last 12 months Private Label Rightsebooks to my site and totally tidy it up in the next few weeks …
….. after all.. its made me some nice income from ebook sales and monthly commission …..it deserves a treat !!
The moral of this post is:
Do Not Spend All Of Your Time Looking For New Niches.
Remember That There Is Still Life – & Profit – In The Old Ones !!
Now I was not going to give you the url of my sad old neglected, money making, health niche website … its untidy and embarrassing… but recently I have made the effort to tidy it up and slowly started adding the Private Label Rights health ebooks which have built up in my membership area. www.SelfHealthBooks.com NOTE: because they are Private Label Rights ebooks I have put myself as the author.
If you want to make some profit – look at the 3 way income possibilities of this Private Label Rights health ebook opportunity. And set up your own niche website as a health ebook reseller and earn from direct sales for personal use, with master resell rights to other resellers and from monthly recurring commission by referring new members.
Good Luck!

Pay Per Lead Information from Internet Marketing Indonesia
If you are an affiliate marketer, there is one kind of affiliate program that you can join instead of the traditional affiliate marketing, which is called Pay Per Lead Program. You can define Pay Per Lead program as a program that will pay your commissions for every person that signs on to the merchant’s opt in list. Here I would like to describe how this Pay Per Lead program works, reported by Internet Marketing Indonesia Journal.
How you Get Paid
If you do the traditional affiliate marketing, an affiliate will get paid only when a sales is made. But in Pay Per Lead affiliate program, the visitor that you bring to the merchant’s site will not have to buy anything. The merchant usually offers the visitor something valuable for free. All this visitor need to do is to just sign up an online form and when the visitor has confirm that he is inside the merchant’s opt in list, you will be paid. For more examples of visitors action that will make pay per lead commissions for you:
a. Signing up for a newsletter. When visitors sign up, you get commissions
b. Taking a poll or filling out a survey. Visitor participates in a survey, you get commissions
c. Supplying contact information like a name/email address. Visitor fills in his/her contact info, you get commissions
d. Visitor fills in a form, you get commissions
e. Visitor joins a free program, you get commissions
Commissions
The paid out commissions can vary from $0.05 to $28 for each of the actions taken by a referred visitor. This action usually involved filling in an online form. The more complex the form, the higher the commission. And the more visitor that you can bring to join the merchant’s opt in list, the more that you will earn.
Marketing Strategy
Most of the merchants only want leads from certain country. It will not be easy for you to send targeted leads if your websites accepts visitors from all over the world. So the best marketing strategy for this program is by sending traffic from such a PPC Ad campaign like Google Adwords, Yahoo YSM, or else, and specify the target country that will lead the visitor to the specific offers, that only valid for that particular country.
Thousands of Products
By joining any one of the pay per lead program networks, which is usually called CPA networks, you can gain access to different type of products from all kind of business. This means your risk is very low. If any of the programs is not performing well, i.e. not making enough money for you, you can switch to another programs easily.
Multiple Affiliate Networks
You can sign up for multiple pay-per-lead affiliate networks to maximize revenue generation and success. Actually some of Pay Per Lead programs offer different commissions on different pay-per-lead affiliate networks. For example, an auto-related Pay Per Lead programs might give $30 per car quote request on Network 1, and $40 per car quote request from Network 2. If you unaware of this, you could lose $10 per lead. So you can remove this issue by signing up on multiple pay-per-lead affiliate networks and search for the highest commission per lead for the particular programs.
I hope that you will find this report useful and you have discovered all the aspects of Pay Per Lead program as one of your option in Affiliate Marketing.
But before you start making any money with Pay Per Lead programs, you need to get traffic to your site. Learn how to get free traffic to your site and make money from this traffic.

An Overview Of Internet Marketing And Making Money Online
internet marketing is the process of advertising or selling products and services over the World Wide Web. It could also entail the strategic placement of media along the different levels of customer engagement. Also known as online marketing or web marketing, the whole process also involves several activities such as search engine marketing, marketing through email, search engine optimization, and the placement of banner ads on certain websites.
Why is it Effective?
Online marketing is very effective because if done properly, it allows internet marketers the opportunity to relay their message to a wider market, global if you may, without having to empty their bank accounts. What’s better is, no matter how many million people read or view the ads, the medium allows a more personalized experience for every Internet user.
For instance, online advertisements shown are usually based on the search keywords typed in by a user, say in Google.com. This gives the ads a stronger appeal because they are targeted to those who are most interested in them. Internet marketers should keep this in mind when coming up with a general framework for their online marketing strategy.
Internet marketing is also effective because it is flexible and easily measurable. Internet marketers have the option to employ a combination of two or more online marketing strategies and shift to other models every now and then to find out which is most effective for their campaign. The results of online marketing initiatives can be easily mapped and tracked, an advantage not seen in traditional forms of marketing.

A Few Useful Ways To Drive Traffic
Article marketing is an internet marketing tactic that gives publishers free and unlimited content and allows advertisers free space to advertise. Article marketing is often used alongside search engine optimization (SEO) as it boosts the campaign by helping generate more backlinks, which help boost page rank.
Online marketers are always striving to put their websites on top of the search engine results page (SERP) of the major search engines. This is because search engines have the greatest potential for redirecting traffic and thus, increasing business profits. Therefore, ranking high on the SERP is a must. Keyword searching is the top activity in the World Wide Web followed only by email.
Article writing is beneficial to SEO campaigns not only because it contributes more backlinks to the original website, but also because it establishes business reputation and strengthens credibility, one of the top objectives of internet marketing. Responsible and effective article writing should be employed to achieve these goals, which means the avoidance of writing and distributing low-quality articles, as well as copying content from other sources.
Online article marketing is undertaken by posting articles related to your business on article directories and other publishers like e-zine.com. Compared to print, article marketing online is targets a specific group or niche only based on the keywords used in the article/s. The author then puts information about the business being promoted or an active link leading to his website inside author boxes usually found in such sites.
Once done with consistency and exceptional quality, the backlinks generated will help boost the page rank of the original website. Article writing also helps build reader trust and loyalty. If you write a quality article, then people will see you as an authority source in your niche, and they’ll be more likely to buy from you. So article marketing can be very beneficial if you are a good writer.

How to Start A New Online Business Today
Online business. The first thing I must say is it’s a mine field out there, and you must take time to look at what it is you are going to do in your business.
If an affiliate program is your choice then make sure that it pays down 2 levels and is well established, and pays you a good commission for your work!
There are a number of things to take into account at this point, what amount of time do you have to dedicate to your new online business! Why do I ask this question, because it’s all too easy to jump at several opportunities when you only have the time to do justice to one.
Remember if you are serious about making a living online pick one opportunity and run with it, use the resources and tools listed to help you max out the best from any opportunity you join, and then when you start to get results, and you will, apply the same system for as many business opportunities or products as you like!
So where do we start, well you need to choose for example an affiliate program then we need to take it to market. Now this is where things get interesting. How do we do this! There are some things that you must have if you are going to have any success online!
These are the tools to your trade/business!
1. A sequential autoresponder, now I don’t care where you get one but this is a must have for your business. So get one and work with it until your 100% happy using it. You will need this kit to build your opt in list! (Your subscriber base to your ezine)
You pre load the AR with messages or articles, set the delivery times say once a week and everybody on your list gets that message it’s that simple!
If you build an opt in list of about say 3000 people then you are in a position to create an income on demand when you like! Once a month send out an email to your subscribers with your latest product or opportunity, Expect a responce of about 2% to 5%. Now if we take this at 2% that’s 60 and let’s say you make $20 per sale that’s $1.200.00 or 60 people in your new business. If it was 5% well I’ll let you do the maths but I think you get the point!
Do not underestimate the power of an autorespondar once set up correctly it’s the single most powerful tool to build your online business.
2. Web site, now this is a controversial subject because you don’t need a web site to build an opt in list, but you will need to have one soon to promote your product or opportunity, get a quality web host account with 500 megs of disk space and 10 gigs of monthly transfer rate.
If you don’t have the skill to build your own web site, don’t worry there are a number of software packages out there that do all the work, you just need to do a bit of typing and click the mouse a few times and that’s it!
3. Advertising, now whether it’s free or you have handed over your hard earned cash for it you must be able to track it’s performance.
Just imagine you have 20 ads on the net all different how will you know what ads are working! Quite simply put, if you don’t have an ad tracker you may just as well stand on the top of a tall building and throw your money off!
One more thing you might not know, and a question that I am asked more than any other “how can I build an opt in list quickly”
You need leads and plenty of them and here’s the deal you buy them it’s quick and easy!
By using a co-reg paid for service you can put your list building on autopilot, you will pay on average about $150.00 for 500 subscribers that will be added automatically to your autoresponder!
Just before I go there is one more thing, I recommend using a web based autoresponder so no matter what happens to your PC you will not lose your data, that data is critical to you it’s your cash generator and you can access it from any PC!
An affiliate network marketing is not difficult to run you just need to get the basics right, and that’s it your on your way to success on with your internet business.
It doesn’t matter what business your in the methods are the same.
A word of warning if an opportunity sounds to good to be true, then it probably is!
