Make Affiliate Money

Some of you may have noticed a change to the Blog layout and look last week.

I was using a wordpress.com free blog called makeaffiliatemoney.wordpress.com to start with and then realised while it was good for SEO and ranking, it was very limited in terms of design and flexibility.

I downloaded the wordpress.org kit and loaded it up to my host and transferred over the posts and comments from the old blog.  this really is very easy if anyone is thinking of doing it.

I then visited UniqueBlogDesigns.com who created blog designs for the likes of Shoemoney and John Chow.  I had a look around and found that they offer this MMO Theme for free which includes all the features I need, including a rotating ad feature which is common on Money Making Blogs.

I really like the “out of the box” look, it is very Web 2.0 and I would recommend it to anyone.  I will consider a unique logo/header, but it serves my purposes just fine.  It is fully customisable and I will add a few more widgets to allow you all a better experience.

…I’m an Affiliate!

I also have another confession to make. I once bought the Rich Jerk!

To be fair, it was about 2 years ago, I needed a 5th sale and also a VISA sale to release my first CB cheque and it was only $9.95. I also got 75% back in commission!

I did actually read the ebook to find out if he was for real or just a hyped up load of junk. The reality was most of what the ebook has to offer is very much the basics of affiliate marketing, website development and SEO. There are no secrets, in fact most of what is in the book is available on the internet at digital point or nichechoppers, you just have to go and find it.

I am not sure whether anyone is actually promoting this now, but he was trying to sell the website/company at one point last year, according to Shoemoney the “empire” was up at $8m to avoid bankruptcy, but I don’t know if he actually sold up.

I love this site which is a parody of the RichJerk, http://www.youreapoorloser.com. This has been done by someone with a great head on them, apparently it is getting 10K hits a day, I wonder how many sales?

Any more confessions folks? Post them as a comment I would love to hear them.
