GetResponse – Old Customers Need To Upgrade To Access New Features

July 9, 2009 By 1 Comment

When Aweber did it, people cried foul but GetResponse has followed footsteps of Aweber very closely.  To use  new features that are available after launch, it is asking for an upgrade to a new plan.

But need not worry.  If you are not in need of new features, which I think majority would not be, you can still continue to use GR as before. You can see if you wish to use new features and then you might want to upgrade.

All the old customers can use Get Response as before without any obligation to upgrade.

Here is the comparison of features with and without upgradation. [Read more...]

Clickbank Surprised Me

May 31, 2009 By Leave a Comment

clickbank

I have not been promoting clickbank products for quite some time. but I have seen clickbank stay the same for years together. It has been dressed in its trademark blue and offered a serene kind of picture.  But recently Clickbank has become bold and bright. Gone is the serene blue and it has been replaced by excitement bright red,  yellow and green. Even the logo has got new colors.

But it is not only the web site design that has been changed. The new interface is very likable and there are many new excitinh features available both to affiliates and sellers now called vendors.

I was more interested in affiliate features so I checked them in detail and found very interesting changes.

One of the things that I liked is HopLink Shield, a tool that encrypts the affiliate and vendor nicknames in HopLinks. This adds an extra layer of privacy and anonymity to HopLinks, keeping affiliates’ promotional efforts and techniques hidden from others. [Read more...]

April 21, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Affilate Products Are Good To Make Money

Affiliate products are the best way one can begin his online business. One of the common problems encountered by newbies in affiliate marketing is choosing the right product to promote. Almost every third product has an affiliate program. A beginner might get confused in this plethora and may not begin at all or gets stuck in the wrong product line, wasting time, energy and money.

Here are few tips that would help you to choose a good selling affiliate product.The best strategy is to find products that are
already selling well.

Clickbank

Clickbank is grand daddy of digital products affiliate programs.Search the ClickBank Marketplace to find products with
a good gravity score. Gravity is a score that Clickbank assigns to each affiliate product according to their secret formula. It has to do with how many sales and how recently those sales have occurred.

High gravity means that affiliates are making a lot of commissions on sales. Low gravity means that there has not been many sales at all. So the gravity is measure of how success of the product is.

A product with gravity score 50 and 150 is a good to start because it gives you a popular product that doesn’t have fierce affiliate competition. [Read more...]

Aweber Announces Changes In Its Affiliate Program

February 26, 2009 By Leave a Comment

aweberRecently Aweber announced few changes in their affiliate program. They have added many new features and some of them are very welcome.

This change has been based on a recent survey conducted by Aweber and includes

All commissions will be raised to 30%.

Aweber has raised the commission it used to pay its affiliates. This includes existing 1st tier commissions of 20%.This means more money from your sales efforts.

Second tier commissions are being phased out

I do not like this one. You get hit badly if you are making a good money from your sub affiliate sales. apparently this has been done to meet Paypal’s terms of service and enable paying of affiliates via Paypal.

One Year Cookie

Your affiliate cookie will be a 1 year, first visit cookie. This seems to be too much as people are whining over it.
PayPal

This again is great move. No more checks in the boxes. Paypal would handle it now.  All affiliates will be paid once a month, on the first of every month.
Minimum Payout
Minimum check payout will be $30.00 for US affiliates and $50.00 for affiliates not based in the US.  I do not think there is much change here.

There are certain good fearures

What do you say?

Affiliate ClassRoom-Analysis and Review

August 16, 2008 By Leave a Comment

Affiliate classroom is a paid membership site run by Anik Singal that provides training in affiliate marketing. The website aims at helpingly newbies mainly who want to learn about internet marketing

The membership is priced at $29.97 per month. the website also offers 14 day $1 trial. I think that is huge plus. The websites like this do not offer trials. This shows the confidence in the product.

After you go to members area, you find that user interface though okay is not one of the best. It is not very straightforward but you get used to after some time

Step by Step Training is the Affiliate Classrooms primary tool, the step-by-step training system. You can log all your efforts on the current project. [Read more...]
