Understanding How a Niche Market Works:

Optimize your blog profit by learning the best techniques to set up your site with a specific group of people in mind.

Set a Goal and Purpose for Your Site Before You Create it:

Before you create your blog or website, there are several questions to ask yourself. What is my niche? What kind of people will be searching for this? What kind of offers could I pair with this niche? What do I want people to do on my site?

Ten Commandments of Blog Making:

1. Thou Shall Not Beat Around the Bush

Be direct. When a visitor comes to your site, it should be simple to navigate and understand the purpose for your site.

2. Thou Shall Not Confuse Thy Visitor with Useless Information

Your visitors time is valuable to them. Keep it short and relevant. Avoid including unnecessary information.

3. Thou Shall Not Bore Thy Visitor with Boring Information

Keep it interesting. Boring content will cause your visitors to leave your site.

4. Thou Shall Not Go Too Broad with Your Topic – Stay Focused

Create content and optimize your blog to keep your niche and your target audience in mind.  

5. Thou Shall Not Sacrifice Your Message for Design

You want the visitor to complete the action(s) you had in mind when creating your site. Keep your blog design simple in order to keep the visitors’ eyes and attention on the important information.

6. Thou Shall Help Your Visitors in a Direct Way by Using their Favorite Medium

Be personal. If your visitor prefers videos, send them valuable videos. If your visitor prefers PDF files, use PDF’s. Keep the experience personal and provide value.

7. Thou Shall Always Direct Visitors Where You Want Them to Go

Walk your visitors through the steps you want them to accomplish on your site. Keep the process simple and easily understandable.

8. Thou Shall Always Find Ways To Interact with Your Visitors

A good way to interact with visitors is to set up a mailing list and sending out a weekly or monthly newsletter.

9. Thou Shall Always Use Your Content to Lead People to What Makes You Money

Be deliberate. Create content with a specific goal in mind and lead visitors to what makes you money.

10. Thou Shall Always Use Your Design to Guide Your Visitors Eyes Where You Want Them

Learn to design your site to make important areas more visually appealing.

How to Motivate Yourself to Get Stuff Done: Simple Productivity Hack — affiliatemarketingmc at YouTube.com

Sometimes, I don’t feel like doing a damn thing. Do you ever feel like that?

You know you need to get stuff done, but you just don’t feel like it. That’s exactly the problem.

We’re always waiting to feel something before we act, when in reality, the exact opposite occurs. When we act, we start to feel different. That’s why people get in traps of depression and lack productivity—because they’re waiting for a feeling to overtake them before they start doing something.

But if you’re in a rut and you don’t feel like doing anything, or you don’t know what to do, the best thing to do is get started on something. Whether it’s taking a walk, making a video, creating some content, or building a new website, or whatever it is, getting started on something. Because what’s going to happen is this: it’s going to start to change the way your brain reacts. Once we start motion, it creates chemicals in our brain that inspire us to do more things.

That’s why I could go weeks without doing anything, but then when I finally do one video, or one piece of content, or one webinar, or one piece of work, then I do more that day than I’ve ever done in the last month. And that’s how it works. You’ve got to get started on something now. You don’t need to jump the whole staircase in one leap and bound like Superman. You just need to get started on one thing and do it now.

So you have to ask yourself: what can I get started on right now that will not only change my mindset, but also get me in the direction that I want to go?

So stop waiting for a feeling to overtake you before you take action. Take action and the feeling will come.

5 Ways To Start Affiliate Marketing for Free Even If You Are BROKE!!! – affiliatemarketingmc at YouTube.com

The first thing you need to do is refine your market. If you want to do reviews on products, decide if you’ll review cooking things, or web hosting companies, or headphones, or computers, or laptops, or tablets, or whatever it may be. You have to refine your niche and base it on something people are actively interested in.   

If you use something that no one’s interested in, then you’re not gonna make any money. But here’s the cool thing: with the internet, people are interested in nearly everything. You can find all kinds of weird stuff that people are interested in that you can make money on.  

People have made lots of money with free blogs, Facebook groups, Instagrams, Twitters, all kinds of things like that. Now, the question is, how do we do it with no money, and how do we do it the right way?

1. Become an Affiliate

An affiliate is someone who makes money for selling a product. There are also CPA affiliates, which get paid for an action, such as when someone downloads a free toolbar, or fills out a form, or clicks a free link, call in, or something like that.  

Right now, it’s free to become an affiliate of most companies. You can go to a CPA network and get started with them for literally nothing. If any affiliate company ever charges you to become an affiliate, that’s not a good way to go. Sometimes they do require you to buy their product, but that’s for obvious reasons. Most of the time, you don’t have to pay anything. There are millions on companies out there that you can become an affiliate with. 

You’ll get paid for linking people when they go and do an action, and everything happens through the link. You get these links for free, because these companies want sales, right? They’re not going to charge you a lot of money to be an affiliate. They want you to drive good quality traffic to their offers, so that you make sales. Because when you make sales, they make money, at it’s very little risk to them. You sign up, you make sales, and then get paid.  

2. Use Social Media

Create a Facebook group or page. You can make a Facebook page for free. You can also make a Facebook group. You can go find people that are interested in your niche, whether that’s website building, or people who are interested in making money, or romantic ideas, or quotes, or whatever.  

Use Instagram. You can get a whole following on Instagram, and then you can set up a free blog to send them to so they can buy stuff, or you can send them your affiliate links or something like that.  

Post in forums. You can go out and post in forums. Someone might post with a problem, and you might have a link to a solution. The cool thing about forums is that you can get paid instantly. Be careful with the away you approach your traffic sources. Don’t go on forums and say, “Buy my stuff, buy my stuff, buy my stuff. Here, click this ugly affiliate link.” No one responds to that, and you won’t make any money. Do this the right way. 

Use Pinterest. If you’re on Pinterest, maybe you’re posting pictures of dresses, or inspirational quotes, or recipes. If you post a recipe on Pinterest, you can drive people a recipe toolbar.  

3. Set Up a Free Blog

You can do this on places like Weebly, or Blogspot, or Blogger, or use the free WordPress version. The downside is that you’ll have a domain that’s not really yours. It will say something like AffiliateMarketingDude.weebly or AffiliateMarketingDude.facebook or something. So, it won’t really be something that you own, and that’s important. Because if you do all this work and the company changes something,  you’re out of luck.

4. Use a Free Auto-Responder

You might also want to look into an auto-responder. There are free auto-responders out there. There are auto-responders that you can get started with for like a dollar a month, or $17 a month. There are also free trials or low-cost trials. Once you get an auto-responder, you can get free traffic all day long. Or you can buy it—but you should only do that if it’s profitable.

5. Get My Affiliate Toolbar

If you really have no money, go over to www.AffiliateMarketingDude.com and get my affiliate toolbar. This is like a cheat sheet for affiliate marketing. If you want to do this stuff and start free, go there and I’ve got some tools for you. We have some things that you can start with for free, obviously, in the hopes that later, once you make some money, you’ll join us in some other stuff so that we can help you make even more.  

If you do a video, do a good video. If you do an article, write a good article. If you go on forums, answer the questions well. Be a helpful person. If you go on Facebook groups and spam people, you’ll probably get kicked out. But if you answer a question well, you’ll make some money. This stuff works if you work it the right way.  

Now, the question is this: Do you want to own your own business or do you want someone else to own it? The last thing you want to do is be making money, and then suddenly everything’s gone because someone else decided to shut it down.  

Bonus: If You Have a Little Bit of Money  

1. Get a Website

I recommend that when you start out with the bare minimum, you make a website with a domain name that is your name. Something like BobsWebTips.com or BobsWoodworking.com or something like that, depending on your name and what market you go into.  

I teach you how to do this at www.GoHubSite.com. You get your domain name, which right now they give you for free when you sign up for hosting. You do have to sign up for web hosting, and if you sign up for three years in advance, it’s around $4 a month. So, it will be around $70 total. Why is this $70 important?  

With this $70, you get your domain. This allows you to host all your stuff on your own. You can put files up, start a mailing list, start different pages on your blog to send people to. You can make redirects. You can host links. You even get an unlimited amount of domains. You can have different blogs. All these tools we provide for you in the Simple Sites course.  

All of this stuff will help you build a following. You could do this without a website, but the best way to start is to get a website. It’s easy for your traffic to get to. The more barriers you have for them to get to what you have to offer, the less money you’ll make in the long run, and the more you’ll hinder yourself.  

2. Get Mentoring and Tools

The second thing is to get yourself a mentor and tools. We actually offer mentoring as well. You can go to SimpleSitesBonus.com, sign up for our mentoring, and it comes with a bunch of tools. Definitely save up some money for mentoring if you have it.  

If you want to get our mentoring and tools, right now the Simple Sites course is $297. It’s actually going to go up once the 2018 course comes out. It will be $797. 

If you don’t have money to start, then do what I’m teaching you for now. There is a gap between people searching and what they want. These vendors want people with influence. They want people with traffic. So, start to build up and save some money.

Finding a Good Niche

It’s important to be deliberate when picking a niche. Always try to go for the less obvious, more targeted niches.

How You can Make Money with YouTube

AdSense and views are not the only way to make money on YouTube. Not only is YouTube the 2^nd largest search engine, it is owned by Google, the leading search engine. Even without millions of views, with the right targeting and application, it is simple to make money from YouTube.

Power of Keywords

Keywords are one of the most important parts of targeting the correct audience.  Skip the bigger keywords and choose more targeted, direct keywords.

Figuring Out What You Want to Accomplish

Before getting started there’s a list of things that it’s good to ask yourself:

• What am I promoting?
• What kind of website would I need to make?
• What is my goal? How much do I want to make daily?
• How much of my product do I need to sell daily to meet my goal?
• How much traffic do I need to get that amount of sales?

How to provide value to drive traffic

Providing the audience with valuable information or the solution to one of their problems is a good way to drive traffic
