Blogging To The Bank 2010- The Truth!


Blogging has been around for a few years now. Most people use blogs to record their thoughts and lives, while the select few use them as a free way to make a fortune.
One guy who uses this to his advantage is Rob Benwell. In 2006 he dished the dirt on the tips and tricks to making a fortune using blogging. But as time passes the old systems become obsolete and new techniques are required. This is where his brand new, fresh off the press Blogging to the Bank 2010 system comes into play.

For those who know who Rob Benwell is like me, you’ve probably made a killing using blogs.
For those who don’t, he’s the story:

Back in 2005 he was struggling to make any profit online, had dropped out of college and was getting deep into debt. He was trying all the techniques the gurus tell you and wasn’t getting anywhere fast. All of that went in the bin and he started using his own techniques and started making more and more money using simple blogs. In early 2006 he shared this with the world and had a great ebook called blogging to the bank. Tons of people got rich from using these techniques (including me). He then spoke at Online Marketing Legend Yanik Silver’s underground Seminar where he revealed even more of his underground strategies. Then July 2007 he released Blogging to the Bank 2.0 which showed users his new methods to creating online wealth using blogs. In total both versions have been read by over 50,000 people across the world.
But as I said earlier, the techniques used in these ebooks are now showing there age. Some of them are not even working in the slightest! This is where blogging to the bank 2010 comes into play.
It’s full of great new techniques that work online right now! Everything’s explained in plain English with all the fluff cut out. I got hold of an advanced copy of the book for a much higher price than what it actually sells for and it has been worth every single cent! I got it in the afternoon and by the evening I was creating new profitable blogs. Within a couple of hours of them being active I had made a nice little profit.
Blogging To The Bank 2010 teaches you Rob's new step by step blueprint to creating highly profitable long term niche blogs using the newest optimization techniques. There’s even a section on advanced Search Engine Optimization. Most people think SEO is difficult but Rob explains this nice and simply so even the blogging newbie will understand it.
Blogging To The Bank 2010 is a breath of fresh air and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to make easy money online.

The Right Affiliate Program

Key points to look at when finding an affiliate program for you:

  1. What type of marketing materials they do provide for you.
  2. The payout structure.
  3. Whether or not their payout structure has merit.
  4. How well their product is selling already (this can be a good and bad thing)

When deciding on an affiliate program, always take a look at their sales page and go through it in detail. Would it be a product or service that looks as though it will sell? How appealing is the site itself? Is it a product or service that you too would buy? Which, keep in mind, it would be a good idea to actually get the product yourself and see if it is worth advertising, then you actually would have a first person view on it and can give actual results from them. Asking yourself these simple questions when choosing an affiliate program for you can make or break your strategy. You do not really want to market something you really have no clue about, right?

When you decide on a program that has the possibility of selling and/or tried it and found some success, take a look at the marketing materials provided as well as the payout structure they offer. Is there enough material that you can use for marketing and making massive sales fast? If not, do you think you would be able to create your own material for it? Sometimes creating your own material is the best way to go, primarily because the material provided is usually used numerous times from other affiliates out there trying to do the same thing as you. Creating your unique material really is not that hard at all, which I will get more in detail later on in this blog.

When dealing with the payment structure of the affiliate program, keep in mind that there are different types of payouts:

  • Single Tier Payout
  • Multiple Tier Payout

Single Tier Payout

You will only receive one commission for every sale that you do. This is usually good only if the product is new and the demand for it is high. Remember, if it is an older product, usually a lot have it already and a lot of others are promoting as well, which means more competition and less are looking into that type of program, not to mention online information does become outdated fast.

Multiple Tier Payout

Here you can make multiple commissions in different ways. Some offer memberships, which in my success, I found very lucrative. There are monthly memberships, which you will make a commission every month from the program as long as the prospect stays with the product and pays. There are also yearly memberships that work the same way as well. When dealing with memberships, it is key to try it yourself, for this one reason, you want the customer to find use from it and keep paying every month or year, so you in turn will get an income from it every time, soon it may turn into a lucrative venture for you all on autopilot.

There are also other types of multiple tiers which there are trial periods, where the customer pays a portion up front and then pays the lump sum later. This is nice because it usually is a very low sum upfront which almost any can afford, and if they are satisfied the rest of the sum is usually big which will turn into massive profits for you. You could also find some affiliate programs that offer a ladder effect. These are good only if you are sure you will be able to get a lot of prospects. Here, you will get a commission when you sign others up and when they sign others up, you will get another commission, much smaller of course, but you get the picture. When dealing with this, it can be very lucrative if the people you sign up go through with it, but more often then always, it will be a dead end street. I found a lot of people who want to do this almost 80% will quite and there goes you streams of income. But by all means you can try and maybe you will become wealthy from it, I just found in my experience that this type has not worked for me.

Now, once you have selected a product or service that you find to be sell able and/or use it as well, with a great payout structure that you understand and feel it will be lucrative for you, with good marketing tools that they provide or you could easily create your own, and that the site has great merit, then sign up as affiliate. Now you have the power of knowing every detail of the product and you can start to market it to the world.

Affiliate Marketing Basics

What is affiliate marketing?


Mostly known for when a business or company allows a person a chance to market, sell, or promote their online product for a percentage of the sale price. The reasoning behind affiliate marketing allows an online business to create an immediate sales force online to promote their products or services fast. This allows their product to be seen by millions more just for allowing others to promote their product or services for a fraction of the cost of it. Some commissions can be as high as 75% of the final sale price. For example, if you were to promote a product or service that cost $100.00 and made a sale, you would already make $75.00 in commissions. Imagine if you could do that 5 times a day everyday.... That could turn into $375.00 a day or even $2,625.00 a month, just for promoting a single product and making at least five sales per day.


I know what alot of you are saying:
I already know this.
I hear this over and over.
Well, if you already do know all of this, then why are'nt you making this kind of money?
If you know all this and are not making money from it, you are doing something wrong....
Which in turn is why I have created this blog, to show beginners like yourself the fundamentals behind making money through affiliate marketing.


Two Major Points To Remember:

  1. Keep it simple-don't over complicate things. Do not make things harder to understand then they really are. You are trying to get potential customers to buy from the companies business through your service. You are not trying to sell the product yourself, what you are really trying to do is get the customers to your affiliate links and let there websites do the talking, which is where so many affiliate marketers tend to fail at. They just try to sell to hard trying to promote it that the customers really have no need to go to the link and actually see the products sales page itself. This in turn will lead to very few or even no sales at all.
  2. In order to really start making money through affiliate marketing, you will need to do work. There is no system that will make you a multimillionaire in a day or even a week. But to be honest there are systems outh there that will help you get to where you want to be, but as stated earlier, expect to do some work to make it fit your expectations. Trust me, there will be alot of trial and error, but once you find your secret, you will be amazed how easy it really is.

Affiliate Marketing In A Nutshell

Well, to start, you will need to find an area where you will be able to start promoting others products or services. There are many out there and all do the same. My top two are clickbank and paydotcom. Either of these services are free to join as an affiliate and contains millions of different types of products and services that you will be able to sell and promote for money. You also have a choice in which you can promote or sell your own type of product or service. This in turn can be a great service for you to get you own content out to the world by just paying commissions to other affiliates.

Keep in mind there are many other programs that offer the same types of services and products. These are the two that I use and found very lucrative in my ventures. You can market as many different types of products from as many different types of affiliate sites, the you must remeber to keep it simple enough that you will be able to track and determine what is selling and why it is. This is why I mainly stick to these two. Be aware that some of the other affiliate sites, you will have to pay a membership fee. Which is another reason I like these two. After all you are trying to make money online, right?
