Hi and welcome to my website. My name is Curt Simpson and I thank you for visiting my site.

The affiliate model is a "high reward/low risk" Web site monetization option...

I originally developed this site while exploring ways to earn some extra cash using the Internet. Over the past ten years I have been studying Internet marketing in an attempt to gain information on how I might build a successful online business.

The most common use of the web for commercial means is in the promotion of either products or services. It is certainly no secret that most successful businesses include a website in their marketing campaigns. Many of them offer an affiliate program to further promote their business interests to a much larger audience by using the efforts of affiliates not employed by the company. Probably the most well know commission-based affiliate program on the web, Amazon.com, first launched in 1996, has enjoyed continual growth and has dominated its niche area of the Internet.

An affiliate program is an agreement between a merchant and an affiliate. You send the merchant traffic; if they buy something you get paid a commission on the product, usually a percentage of its price. This process can be equated with the very old concept of providing a finders fee for referrals.

There are four basic types of affiliate programs:

• Click-through or pay-per-click programs
• Cost-per-thousand impressions programs
• Pay-per-lead (new customer) programs
• Pay-per-sale (percentage-based) programs

If you intend to make a lot of money from these programs you should plan on building your business slowly and treating this as a real job. You can only get back what you are prepared to put forth when it comes to any online business venture. You CAN be successful using affiliate referral marketing methods. As with most business enterprises, it takes commitment, determination and a great deal of patience to obtain success. But if you are serious about building an online business enterprise or if you just want to earn some extra cash YOU CAN SUCCEED! These affiliate programs want you to be successful to assure their success. They supply you with the knowledge, technology, marketing tools and support to help ensure your success!

- Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

Personal endorsements are a very important element of quality website content. The majority of companies offering affiliate programs for their products offer great sales content (banners, text links, etc.) to their affiliates. Many of these include mini sites of individual products or whole product lines. They do an excellent job of informing visitors of the benefits of product offerings.

I have personally viewed, as you have, many of these advertisements as I surf the web for business opportunities. I have reviewed and read completely through a lot of these programs. I am currently using many of these promotions for my offerings and believe in the products that I promote. However, I feel that there is a way to have a much greater impact upon the decision of your prospects to purchase or join an offering.

I am personally recommending that you purchase, own and use the products that you have chosen to market online. Whether you intend to build a business of selling by direct marketing, reselling and drop shipping or by using affiliate referrals it is VERY IMPORTANT that you have as much product knowledge as you can obtain.

It should be obvious that anyone who comes to your site/advertisement seeking information would like to believe that your information and knowledge are CREDIBLE. Anyone can give an excellent and believable sales pitch for products they are marketing without having actually purchased and used these products. But a personal endorsement has a lot more clout when it comes to building a rapport with potential customers.
