Hello everyone, It’s been more than a month since I updated this blog. Well, I’m refreshing some affiliate marketing skills that I’ve learned from the past. I took a step back and discovered that there are many things that changed since I learned affiliate marketing.

Just like in Information Technology(IT), we need to update our skills in order to maintain a competitive edge among our competitors. We have to learn new things and adapt the changes, especially big with ‘G’ who keeps changing its algorithm all the time.

If you want to get some latest new within Internet Marketing, I suggest you to visit some popular forums and you’ll discover that there are literally thousands of people learning this IM thing.

But be cautious on reading some posts. There could be useful tips you can gather from them but as usual, there will be unreliable suggestions lying around.

So start updating your IM skills now.:D

If you are reading some of my previous posts, then you’ll know that I was banned from Adsense and because of that, I learned to explore making money being an affiliate.

The story today will be somewhat the same.:D

Few months back, eBay affiliate was introduced to me. At first, I was hesitant since it seems new to me. But since he was my friend, and there are so many good reviews, I signed up and earned few bucks until a big hammer launched into my account, my account was terminated.

Ok, as usual, I emailed back their support and asked why they slapped my account. Hopefully, they will respond back to my inquiry.

Because of this, I was confused because I didn’t do anything blackhat nor violation to their terms.

Does it hurt?

You’ll know if you hammered your fingernails or maybe on your first time experiencing it.

When I got my Adsense account terminated, I felt like someone poked me below my sensitive skin. But when I received a termination account from eBay Partner, I can still feel it but not like on the first time because I know it’s bubbly.

Needless to say and what other affiliates say; do not put all your sensitive eggs in one basket as someone might throw a big stone inside the basket.

By the way, I can consider that my EPN account is still lucky as it was not the first few accounts that received termination letter which seems to starts last August.

Woooops!!!

So do you want to start an affiliate business? Many affiliate marketers that are just starting out seems to be a “Jack of all trades”. You won’t be one of those jacks unless you have the money to outsource the other things in your affiliate promotion.

If you want to start affiliate marketing, I suggest you to learn 80% of what you can learn in affiliate marketing such as website creation, search engine optimization, pay per click marketing, etc.. It’s almost a must if you are in a tight budget which is the most problem of those who are just starting out. Continue Reading

Few days ago, I planned to create a new PPC campaign using Adwords and Yahoo Search Marketing. And of course, all the researching has been made beforehand. Like product and keyword research. Now, after all these researching, I felt lazy to create the PPC campaign because I have to create the campaign manually and I have to do it on both Adwords and YSM so I think of a better solution.

Of course, every PPC marketer has their own routine in creating their own PPC campaign. Whether you are a newbie or a veteran, I think you should be following some routine in creating your campaign. Anyway, you can bend the routine anytime you want.
