Confessions of a Lazy Superaffiliate
Review
How many times have I read that you are supposed to follow your passions when it comes to affiliate
marketing, you are always told to do what you love to do, and the money will follow, it doesn't. The guy who wrote
this book, Chris Rempel, tells you to steer clear of that type of thinking, and concentrate on market demand. This
makes heaps of sense, for setting up a website about some obscure passion I might have, certainly doesn't guarantee
sales, and may not even entice visitors to my site.
Chris Rempel tells you to visit places like Clickbank, eBay, Amazon, Commission Junction to see what is selling.
He particularly recommends Clickbank because you are able to see the stats for the top sellers, and and since they
only sell digital products your customers are able to download their purchase immediately, instant gratification.
He recommends buying the product you are selling for in that way you have a complete understanding of what you are
selling, however, if you can't afford it, then it will be necessary to do some extensive research about the
product.
He recommends using the Google keyword tool for your search for relevant keywords, then choosing a small number
of these relevant keywords and writing 500 word articles using these keywords. While he outsources many of the
tasks involved in his marketing, and he recommends that others for likewise, for someone just starting out lack of
finance may be a deterrent.
When you have finished writing your articles, you will then set up your profitable mini website. Chris gives
detailed instructions on how to do this, the most effective layout to use and how to generate traffic using viral
marketing, SEO, recriprocal links, and one-way links. He does not recommend using Adsense ads, he says it's for
dummies.
Chris points out that the only way to achieve success in affiliate marketing is to research the high demand
products with lots of buyers, he says: " you need a large never ending supply of people who want to buy something".
You need desperate buyers who want to solve some sort of problem they have, who don't mind spending the money if
they can get the product immediately, hence his recommendation for Clickbank digital products.
You are shown what conversion strategies to use, how to test and track, he's not a fanatical list builder
for in some markets he mentions it isn't always practical or necessary. He reveals how he gets free traffic to his
sites, and lots of it, using some unusual strategies.
The book is not large, a mere 62 pages, but there is so much in it, every paragraph is packed with ideas and
strategies ,nothing is held back, there are no secrets he generously gives you every tool of his trade.

The Two Biggest Reasons Why Most People Will Never Make a Full-Time Income Online...
It all starts when some well-meaning (yet misdirected) person encourages a budding internet entrepreneur to
"start in a niche they know alot about", or base their business around "something they're passionate about"...
As horrible as it may sound - they've unknowingly sent the hopeful entrepreneur down a path of false
expectations, poor results and eventually - failure. In fact, the myth of "do what you love and the money will
follow" has been responsible for more failure than likely any other influence - perhaps even more so than laziness
or a lack of perseverance.
Because the simple truth of the matter is that the only way you're going to make real money on the net is if
your business is based around two crucial things:
1) Large Demand
2) Buyers
In other words - you aren't going to get rich selling a $15 ebook about growing square watermelons - even though
that might be a great passion of yours.
The demand just isn't there. Maybe there's a few searches a day on Google for the topic, and perhaps there's
some interest in the online "gardening enthusiast" communities - but you'd be hard-pressed to make even a few
hundred dollars a month from ebook sales.
Similarly, you also aren't going to have a particularly easy time getting rich by building websites about some
seemingly "popular" topics like humor, jokes, funny pictures and so on. And while there are a few ways to
"monetize" your site (with AdSense, CPA Offers, CPM Banners, etc.), it takes literally millions of website visitors
to make even just a few thousand dollars in markets like that.
The demand is huge - but the visitor value is extremely low...
Instead, if you want to make it big online - pulling down an impressive six-figure income - you need to tap into
markets with tons of demand, where the majority of the visitors are valuable.
You need to capture tons of traffic that wants to buy something. If you take this approach, you'd practically
have to hijack your own order links (or affiliate links) not to make a sizeable income.
In fact - did you know that some affiliates make several thousand dollars daily just by promoting a single
product in hot markets? (Just imagine what the merchant is making...)
In some markets there's actually so much demand that the vendors are quite literally selling over a thousand
units - or more - per day. Digital products, with practically zero overhead/delivery cost.
But it all comes back to tapping into valuable demand. In most cases, it takes no extra effort or "skill" to
market to a valuable market than it does to struggle along with something you're passionate about.
These two factors - demand and buying traffic - are what seperate the "wannabe" marketers from the millionaires.
Because there's no real secret - you just need to sell what thousands of people are already buying.
The ball is now officially in your court. Are you tapping into markets with massive, valuable demand?
Or are you struggling to simply make a few dollars occasionally with a business that's based on your own
passionate interests?
