Re: [epub] Affiliate programs

["Melody Campbell" <ad_lady@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My favorite is the 5 Pillar Program which, in my opinion, gives the most 
information about how to get started.  Here's the link:
www.sitesell.com/fnp.html
I'd recommend the 5 day e-mail courses offered by Sitesell University.

I don't remember if he has a minimum or not. But here's an idea.  In the 
beginning I put the minimum required even though I wasn't sure I was 
actually getting the 100 hits per day minimum.  I was of course accepted 
right away.  But...I knew I had my work cut out for me. My site focuses on 
Auctions and collectibles.  So I email invitation letters to bidders of 
closed auctions of collectibles that I feature on  my site. My emails are 
not blatant advertisement; just friendly invitations like you'd receive from 
a neighbor to come and inspect my web site and join my mailing list.  This 
gets me the hits that I need.  I need to cover about 100 a day - Not 
everybody goes to my site, and not everybody joins my mailing list...right 
away.  I'm finding that it kind of snowballs.  They end up coming back 
later.  It wasn't very long before my stats were above the minimum.

If you feel like you're misrepresenting your stats then I'd encourage you to 
send an email resume of sorts to the Affiliate Program facilitators to see 
if they'd consider you as you get started.  My guess is they'd make the 
judgement by looking at your site to see how current the information is -- 
giving them an idea of whether or not you'll place the ad on the page and 
then abandon the site.  After looking at your site - I think you'd have a 
good chance.

I looked at your site and I think you'd be a perfect candidate for the book 
Make Your Knowledge Sell.  This book covers epublishing. Gives you the 
opportunity to sell your knowledge right off the web.  (this also can be 
found at www.sitesell.com/fnp.html)

Contact me if I can help in anyway!

BTW: Did you buy that new car yet?
If not, check this site out. 
They're called CarsDirect.com and it's a pretty sweet way to buy a car.
