Make Money with Affiliate Programs

One of the best books I have read about Affiliate Marketing is Rosalind Gardner's Super Affiliate Handbook. She gives a very clear explanation about how you go from simply making money to actually building a business through affiliate marketing.

Lose the Ugly URL

One of the problems with being an affiliate is the ugly URL you typically have to use.  While it can be hidden on a web page, it is highly visible in an ezine ad.

If you have a web site, you can set up a "redirect" page that will take care of this problem. Here is the html code I used on the CBmall site for many redirects:

If you don't have a web site or don't want to use the redirect method, an excellent solution is available through a service called NameStick.

Not only does NameStick do an automatic redirect for you, but they will give you an email address that matches the domain you use.

See a video I created that explains NameStick.

A cool feature that differentiates NameStick is the fact that they also give you an email address with the same domain.  So you can run an article or ad and put in your email address as me@yournewdomain.com, which makes it really look like this is your business and domain. 

NameStick also supports subdomains, meaning you can use the same domain name to direct traffic to multiple pages.  Example:

http://search.cbmalldomains.com sends you to the CBmall search engine.

http://join.cbmalldomains.com sends you to the CBmall sales page.

Nice system.
