Not All Affiliates are Techie Geniuses – But They Still Make Money Online

This post talks about an important affiliate marketing issue; I want to expose to you the biggest myth – that you need to be a techie person to make money online.

In fact, that’s not truth. I have friends making a full time living on the Internet who barely know how to FTP or change DNS [and that's basic stuff most newbies who probably know how-to by doing a Google research]

What smart affiliates don’t tell you is that they have a custom blog that gets traffic and makes money… but they paid someone else do the “techie” work

For example, instead of manually installing a blog [which takes a few days to figure it out how to do it], you could host WordPress on your server [most provides have one-click install or Fantastico] within minutes.

This is just one aspect, not to mention search engine optimization, plugin add-on, and all the bells and whistles.

And because I want to help the newbies have their own money-making blog, I decided to create this custom blog service for ClickBank affiliates only

What you don’t know by now is that it’s in your best interest to control a custom-made WordPress blog that gets traffic and makes money While enjoying life with your loved ones!

Don’t let the techie side of business scare you, don’t let this part stop you from making a living online, that’s crazy!

Get your custom blog setup right here and if you have any questions post your comments below and I’ll answer right away.

Make money online tips – How to Generate Your first $300

You have probably heard that there is money to be made on the Internet and you can’t sleep at night; yes, you secretly wish you start making some dollars online too, I know this because I was alike a few years ago; back in Nov. 1999 to be more precise.

Nov. 1999 was a cold winter when I started online, just finished high-school here in Romania, Bucharest, and decided to get on the web [a friend of mine told me about some companies who are paying you for reading emails]

To make a long story short, I decided to give it a try. Fast forward later and I made a measly $9… within 12 months. That’s up to 365 days! Wow. I waited that long and almost wanted to give up; luckily I have found affiliate programs – companies or networks paying you a percentage commission when you make a sale – promoting their products or services.

In 2003 I’ve started to grow… step-by-step, I finally made my first $24 affiliate check. I still remember that night. Yesterday I was sending 36 emails to some contacts I talked in the past and others I didn’t know, asking them something about their Internet business.

Within 24 hours I’ve made my first $24 affiliate check, promoting an Ezine article writer software tool [in the P.S. of that little email]. I couldn’t believe when I’ve got the “you have a new sale” email in my inbox!

It was like a dream come true for me; I thought to myself… “Hmm, since I’ve made $24 “overnight” then it means this Internet thing must be working”.

I knew nothing would stop me to continue and move forward with my dream to turn this Internet game into a real business; yes, in the beginning it was all a toy, I looked at the Internet as a hobby, and tried the make money online niche for fun, and less for profit.

If you want to take it serious, then starting your online business requires time, planning and investment [in money, skills and people] – there’s no other secret, although people are claiming they own the BIG secret to making millions online.

I don’t believe in big secrets, nor I talk about such; if there’s a secret I’ve discovered myself, then I make sure to tell the world about it, regardless it’s making me a bunch of money or just giving me minor results.

I don’t hold any secrets, nor I deliver HYPE. I like sharing.

So here’s HOW you can make your first $300 online – take the $300 in 20 days affiliate challange now!
