Website copywriting doesn’t have to be difficult. In fact, it can be downright easy when you know your topic and you use these copywriting tips.
1: Know your reader.
Whatever you write is all about your reader, not about what you know.
2: Plan what you will say.
Know in advance what message you want to convey to your reader and make an outline to ensure you get it right.
3: Fill in your outline.
After each item in your outline, write about that item. People get hung up on the writing part, but if you look at it as filling out the outline, then it gets super easy.
4: Don’t edit as you write, just write.
Editing comes later, ideally the next day if there is time to wait.
5: Keep your paragraphs short.
The recommended size is 7 lines or less, and that’s lines, not sentences.
6: One sentence paragraphs can work great, despite what your English teacher may have taught you.
7: Use Sub-Headlines.
If your copy is long, break it up with sub-headlines to make it easy for your reader to scan.
8: Use active, interesting verbs.
Using active verbs can help make your writing more engaging and dynamic by conveying a sense of action and movement. Active verbs also help make your writing more concise and direct, which can enhance clarity and readability.
You didn’t just go to the store, you walked briskly or you ran like your hair was on fire or you sauntered and strutted or you exhaustedly dragged yourself there.
Strutting your stuff exudes dynamic action for better engagement!
Or maybe you crawled or hopped or even flew on the handlebars of your sister’s bike.
Do whatever fits, but just make it interesting, engaging and more memorable.
9: Use active verbs instead of passive verbs.
Instead of, “A letter is written by Emma,” say, “Emma writes a letter.”
10: Omit lazy words.
Omit words that don’t do anything at the beginning of sentences. Instead of, “There are 24 people in attendance,” you can say, “24 people joined us.”
11: Avoid jargon.
Even if you’re using the right jargon with the right audience, they’ve heard it so much that it loses all meaning. And if you use the right jargon with the wrong audience, they won’t know what you mean.
12: Avoid male and female words.
For example, instead of policeman, say officer, and instead of chairman, say chairperson.
Certainly – Indicates a high degree of certainty and confidence in your statement or claim.
Definitely – Similar to certainly, it conveys a sense of unwavering conviction and confidence.
Without a doubt – Expresses absolute certainty and confidence in your assertion.
Confidently – Indicates that you are expressing your opinion or belief with a high level of assurance and conviction.
Absolutely – Emphasizes that you have complete confidence in what you are saying and that there is no room for doubt.
It is clear that – This phrase emphasizes that your point is clear and undeniable, which can help bolster your confidence in your writing.
I am convinced that – This phrase conveys a strong sense of conviction and confidence in your position or opinion.
14: Check your punctuation.
I’m a grammar Nazi, I correct people’s grammar vs. I’m a grammar Nazi. I correct people’s grammar. (The first version suggests that you’re a grammar-loving Nazi, while the second version separates your identity from your grammar habits.)
Yeah, small difference in punctuation is a big difference in meaning!
Or, I like cooking my family and my pets vs. I like cooking, my family, and my pets. (The first version is disturbing, while the second version lists cooking as a separate activity from harming loved ones.)
Copywriting Tips #11 – Punctuation Matters
One last example: I’m sorry I love you vs. I’m sorry, I love you. (The first version implies that you’re sorry for loving someone, while the second version clarifies that you’re apologizing and expressing love.)
15: Avoid redundancy.
This tip was provided by the Department of Redundancy Department.
“New innovation,” “end result” and “returned back” are three examples of words.
In a sentence: The sun rose up in the sky. (The word “up” is unnecessary because, well, the sun always rises upward.)
And another: He nodded his head. (The word “head” is redundant because nodding is a motion of the head.)
Overall, using short words that grab attention can help ensure that your message is clear, memorable, and accessible, making it more likely that your audience will engage with and act on it.
Sometimes expressions work great. This is especially true if they are well known, or associated with a particular audience, a famous person, or someone your reader can relate with.
Squirrel! A great single word attention grabber often meaning distraction!
17: Use an editor.
If you have the time and resources, you can hire someone to be your editor.
A second pair of eyes will sometimes work wonders. And you don’t really need to hire someone. A peer, family member, friend, or others who have a general reading ability are certainly helpful. They might not catch all the grammatical errors as a professional would, however, it depends a great deal on what you are writing.
In closing,
I want to expand a bit on that last comment. Everyone must pick and choose, and prioritize your work and the importance of it. There are only so many hours in a day, and we are all short on time. For example, I could spend extra time on this blog, to make certain that I don’t have any errors and am using these tips appropriately and to the best extent possible.
However, I am short on time, and I feel that it is more important to get this blog posted with the 80/20 rule vs taking the extra time out of my day tomorrow to make it incrementally better.
In this instance, I am hoping you will excuse my errors, and missteps, and take it for what it is. Just a few copywriting tips to help you along your writing journey. I’m certainly not an English major, nor am I a grammar Nazi, no matter how it is punctuated.
So regardless of the delivery, I hope you found something here helpful.
If you’re an affiliate marketer who plays it smart, you’ll follow the successful marketers. Watch the 2023 marketing trends.
Here are 9 affiliate marketing trends to look out for in 2023:
1: More Focus on Mobile
With more and more people using their smartphones and tablets to access the internet, it’s no surprise that affiliate marketers are going to be focusing more on mobile in the coming year. This means creating more mobile-friendly content and ads, as well as making sure your website and products are mobile-friendly.
2: More Video Content
Video is a very popular format, and it’s only going to become more popular in the next year. Affiliate marketers are going to be creating more video content, whether it’s in the form of vlogs, product reviews, or educational videos.
Become a regular creator of video content with a stellar reputation and you can gain a loyal following who snap up your recommendations solely because you are the one recommending the product.
3: More Influencer Marketing
Influencer marketing is when you partner with someone who has a large following on social media or elsewhere online. This can be a very effective way to reach new people, and it’s something that more affiliate marketers are going to be doing in the coming year.
Social media influencers have altered the marketing landscape to a significant degree. For example, 15% of Gen Z’s have purchased an item based on the recommendation of an influencer within the last 6 months. Influencer marketing of all kinds generates 10 times the return on investment of traditional banner ads.
If you can see your way to becoming an influencer in your niche, then now is the time to start building that audience. Returns in the first few months will be skimpy but keep at it and you can reach a point of critical mass where the number of followers you have begins to double every couple of months. A year or two from now you could have a significant number of followers and a tidy six figure income from your efforts if you stick with it through the initial lean months of getting started.
4: More Use of Social Media
Social media is a great way to connect with potential customers and promote your products or services. Affiliate marketers are going to be using social media more in the coming year to reach new people and promote their offers.
5: More Focus on Content Marketing
Content marketing is a way to attract attention and interest in your products or services by creating articles, blog posts, infographics, and other types of content. This is something that more affiliate marketers are going to be doing in the coming year as they focus on attracting new customers.
6: Entry in the Metaverse
As we get ever closer to a virtual tomorrow, affiliate marketers who position themselves to take advantage of the metaverse can see significant growth. Consider in-game advertising, digital transactions and immersive marketing as possible affiliate strategies for 2023.
You might promote virtual products, become an avatar or even create your own virtual world. Even traditional companies, such as clothing and accessories are allowing customers to purchase digital versions of their products within games.
7: Voice Search is on the Rise
Mobile devices account for 50% of affiliate marketer’s traffic, and many of us already use voice search. Long tail SEO will be the best way to capitalize on this trend. Do your keyword research to discover what your potential customers are looking for when they use voice search and act accordingly.
8: Podcasting will Continue to Grow
More and more brands will want to grab a piece of the podcasting pie in 2023. Your best bet is to create your own podcast with a long-term strategy to build a large, loyal audience who purchase based on your recommendations.
Work with product owners to get special deals for your listeners and advertise this special deal at the beginning, middle and end of your podcast. Place a time limit on the deal to create urgency or limit the offering to create scarcity.
9: More Recurring Income
As more and more affiliate marketers become savvy to recurring income, we will see an explosion in the promotion of products that continue to pay over a longer period of time. For example, promoting a software or service that charges by the month and therefore pays the affiliate monthly, too.
If you have the choice between promoting two programs that are similar but one pays one time and the other pays monthly, consider going with the monthly payments.
And if you choose to expand your affiliate efforts into creating your own product in 2023, by all means make it something that will continue to give you profits for months to come after the initial sales is made.
I’m using constraint here to stay off my soap box. My regular readers know how I continually pound the table about recurring, or passive income streams. Those marketers that are most successful have mastered this model and leverage recurring income to the maximum extent possible.
Now here’s a passive gold nugget. I try to share a few to keep readers coming back.
This gold nugget starts with a ton of great premium internet marketing tools being given away. Yep, free giveaways. A whole bunch. Like over $1 million in giveaways. But it gets better. Keep digging on this one. Go beyond the freebies. Of course, certainly sign up for them, but the value is deeper.
I’m dedicating a ton of time to this right now and I invite you to dig into it and understand it. This is a mega passive opportunity!
Let’s continue with more of the questions that I have been receiving.
Will affiliate marketing ever rule the world?
This question threw me. If you take it literally, then no, I don’t think it will. To rule the world you need world leaders. To elect them based on recommendations from affiliate marketers, well, most election systems already do something like this. People and publishers recommend this candidate or that candidate, and I suppose that could be called affiliate marketing.
Figuratively, I don’t think it will rule the world, but it will continue to grow. While businesses can drop millions of dollars in advertising, many of them would prefer to pay on a performance basis only. If a sale is made, they pay. If there’s no sale, then they don’t pay. It’s a pretty good system for businesses because they don’t waste money on advertising that doesn’t work.
And it’s a great system for affiliates because we get to make money on products we didn’t create and don’t own.
What are the best niches and sub niches for beginner affiliate marketing?
There are so many to choose from, and of course you will sometimes overlap from one subniche to another. For example, if your niche is computers then you will likely also be in the digital notebooks and webcams as well.
If you’re new to marketing, you’ll find it’s easier to work in a niche other than the online marketing niche. You won’t yet have the credibility of an experienced marketer because you don’t have any experience in marketing. Starting in this niche is like starting college as a professor without ever taking college classes.
Once you’ve established yourself in another niche and you’re making a six-figure income, that’s the time to enter the online marketing niche and teach others are how to be successful, too.
I’ve created a list below to get you started. Keep in mind that any niche you choose needs to be profitable for you with an audience you can easily reach.

I think I could take almost any niche and run with it, and have fun! I hope you all do the same.
And really, the basics or foundation is pretty much the same for whatever it is that you are marketing, regardless of the niche. You will always need Traffic, Leads and Sales!
Now, let’s close with an affiliate marketing triumph story:
George was at his wits end financially. In fact, he was about 30 days away from becoming homeless.
But George knew gaming. And he knew gamers.
He signed up for three different gaming affiliate programs, built a simple website and starting writing 3, 4 and 5 articles a day about gaming.
He promoted his site on social media, he answered any and all questions people had about gaming and especially about the games he knew best.
He did live calls to answer questions.
He built his mailing list. And he promoted products.
30 days after he started he had enough money to catch up on his rent.
90 days after he started he was able to replace his clunker car with something newer and nicer.
That was three years ago.
George now owns his own home. He drives a new car. And he’s never been happier.
Notice that it did not happen overnight.
Notice that George worked his tail off in the beginning.
And notice, too, that if George can do it, then so can you!

Affiliate marketing starts with earning bucks by promoting other people’s stuff. With diligence, a beginner affiliate can successfully make $100,000.
Yes, this is just one of the questions I receive a lot.
I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately about affiliate marketing, some of which caught me completely by surprise. For example, “Is affiliate marketing legal?”
I certainly hope so, or else I’ve just paid for my new home with illegal profits. 😉

Why Affiliate Marketing is Still One of The Easiest Ways to Make Money Online in 2023
If you’re looking for an easier way to make money online, affiliate marketing is a great option. It’s one of the most popular ways to earn money online, and it’s relatively simple to get started. I’m going to delve into some of the questions and then provide an overview of affiliate marketing for those who are curious to try or are just starting out.
What is affiliate marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a type of performance-based marketing in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for each visitor or customer brought by the affiliate’s own marketing efforts.
Basically, you can sign up to be an affiliate for a company, and then promote their products or services. When someone buys something from the company you’re promoting, you earn a commission.
It’s a pretty straightforward way to earn money, and there are a lot of companies out there that offer affiliate programs. These companies use affiliates to help them reach new customers.
Why is affiliate marketing a good way to make money?
There are a few reasons why affiliate marketing is a great way to earn money online.
First of all, it’s a relatively easy way to get started. You don’t need your own products or services to sell, and you don’t need to deal with shipping or customer service. All you need to do is promote the products or services of someone else.
Secondly, it’s a great way to earn passive income. Once you’ve set up your affiliate marketing campaign, it can run on autopilot, making money for you while you sleep. This is my soap box, my passion and #1 message. Alwaysincorporate passive income streams whenever possible. The sooner you master this, the sooner you will reach six and then seven figures.
My continued soap box. Strategize for reoccurring income streams!
Thirdly, there’s potential to make a lot of money. If you can build a large and loyal audience through your content creation, you can work your way up to earning $100,000 a year or even $100,000 a month through affiliate marketing. Yes, this is the exception, but it can be achieved.
For example, Clickbank states on their website that they have ‘hundreds of Platinum affiliate marketers who earn more than $250k per year,’ along with an ‘impressive number of Diamond affiliates who earn more than $5 million per year.’
Another one of my rules. Learn from those who have found success before you. Build relationships and leverage their knowledge. Duplicate or replicate what you can.
Fourth, affiliate marketing allows you to focus on your content creation and building an audience while other people tend to product creation and customer service.
Fifth, you can choose what you promote and to a certain extent, how you promote it. You never have to promote a product you don’t like or shill for a company you don’t believe in. Even though you are promoting other people’s products, you are still the boss of your business, and you can feel good about only recommending those products you truly believe will help your audience.
This is “Richard”. Don’t be a “Richard”. Successful Affiliate Marketers build “know, like and trust”
Sixth, you’ll never spend months creating a product no one buys. You might spend one day or even a week promoting something that doesn’t sell as well as you anticipated, but you can pull the plug anytime you choose and promote something else that is better for your audience, converts at a higher rate or simply pays you more.
And seventh, you’ll never have to deal with customer service. I cannot tell you all the nightmare hours I’ve spent responding to customers with the oddest, strangest, and sometimes most aggravating of requests or demands. And there are always those few fringe customers you just can’t get away from fast enough. As an affiliate, you don’t have the same level of direct interaction with the customer for support. Should you get a question, you can simply refer them to the product seller for help and guidance, while you rest easy knowing someone other than yourself is handling customer service issues.
Looking Forward
In 2023, there are more affiliate marketing programs to choose from than ever before, along with more ways to reach your audience and more audience to reach as even the most internet shy people are now coming online with the rest of the world.
Also, given the economic conditions, and inflation and high prices, more and more people are looking for some supplemental income. And why not look on the internet when you can do everything from your own home.
Although there are some costs to affiliate marketing, it can be done on a relatively tight budget. You certainly can’t start any other business without investing a lot more funds.
So, if you’re looking for an attractive way to make money online, affiliate marketing is a great option. It’s relatively simple to get started, and it has the potential to be quite profitable.
Is affiliate marketing illegal?
Absolutely not. Regular affiliate marketing is as legal as can be. In some countries, multi-tiered affiliate marketing may be illegal. For example, if I were to bring you in as an affiliate and I then got paid on the affiliates you brought in. I doubt you’ll ever find an affiliate program that offers a three tier system like that. If you do, it’s most likely not affiliate marketing but rather multi-level marketing which is an entirely different thing.
Successfully make $100,000 over and over!
What’s the difference between multi-level marketing and affiliate marketing?
There are numerous differences but let me just give you the big one: In affiliate marketing you do not need to purchase any product ever. Nor is there a ‘distributor kit’ to purchase. You fill out an application to become an affiliate, you get approved and you can start marketing the product with zero expense out of your pocket.
You never, ever pay the product owner for the right to promote their product. Nor do you fill up your closets and garages with products you’ve been told to purchase but you cannot resell.
Also, even if you are in the rare affiliate program that allows you to recruit other affiliates (two-tier affiliate programs) you are never required to bring anyone else onboard.
Is affiliate marketing a legit way to make decent money?
Absolutely. While affiliate marketing isn’t always as easy as it sounds, it’s a 100% legit way to earn a living. And if you get good at it, there’s no reason why you can’t be earning six figures from it by your second or third year.
How Do I Get Started as an Affiliate Marketer?
This is the big question, isn’t it?
Let’s lay out the steps you might take to get started:
1: Pick your niche.
If possible, start with something that keenly interests you. Since you’re going to be working in this niche every day for possibly years to come, it makes sense to do something you enjoy and that stirs some passion for you.
Make a list of possibilities, and then do some research to find out:
Are people spending money in these niches?
Are there plenty of affiliate products to promote in these niches?
Only consider niches that get a firm yes to both of these questions.
Don’t know where to start? At the end of this article you’ll find a list of niches to consider.
2: Build your website.
While you can certainly send people straight to your affiliate offer, the real money is in building a list and creating trust and credibility with your subscribers.
Your website will be all about your niche, making your visitors feel comfortable, offering product reviews as well as articles that your readers find informative and helpful.
Everything you do as an affiliate is geared towards building trust with your audience so that they get to know you, like you, and most of all, trust you.
3: Create a mailing list.
To build a relationship with your audience you’re going to offer them a perfectly ethical ‘bribe’ to join your newsletter and get updates, news and special offers from you. The bribe should be something people in your niche would pay money for because it’s exactly what they want. It doesn’t have to be big, either. Sometimes all you need is a one-page cheat sheet or list of resources.
Email your list often to let them know you’ve posted something on your blog that’s worth their time to check out. Be entertaining and informative, keep your emails short, use stories and don’t be afraid to sell them on clicking a sales link in each email, even if you just insert it in the P.S.
When your list is accustomed to seeing links leading to offers, they come to expect it and they buy.
4: Promote only products you know and trust.
Anything you promote is something you should know well and preferably use yourself. Your reputation is on the line every single time you promote something, so never, ever promote a lousy product just because you’re looking for a fast commission.
Once you have a good reputation as an affiliate, in many (but not all) cases you can email the product owner and ask to see or use the product free of charge.
5: Sell them on the click.
There’s no need to do the heavy lifting of selling in your emails. If the sales letter converts well, then all you need to do is presell them on why this product is something they need to look into for themselves, and why they need to do that right now.
6: Write product reviews.
A good product review is an awesome way to make sales. Your email sends them to the product review and the review sends them to the sales letter.
The trick to writing a great product review is to USE the product yourself and then be 100% honest about what you think of the product.
I once wrote a review for a lousy product and I said it was lousy in the review. Not only did I still get a couple of sales of that product, but the next time I reviewed something positively my sales shot through the roof.
7: Give stuff away.
First, you give them something to get them to join your list. Then you give away something now and then just to keep people opening and reading your emails. And finally, you give away the really good stuff as a bonus to encourage the product purchase. The bigger the purchase you’re asking them to make, the bigger the bonus(s) you can offer.
You can also use these to segment your list into people who like different things. For example, if your niche is online marketing, you can segment your list into podcasting, video marketing and social media marketing to name a few.
If you’re selling an expensive product, why not give away one-on-one coaching sessions? You can help the person get the most out of the product they purchased from your affiliate link.
And if it’s a mid-priced product, you could do group coaching calls. These calls also serve to bond you to your customers as well as to advertising your paid coaching services.
8: Be reachable.
If someone emails you with a question, answer them. Then use that question and answer in an email to your list, because if one person has the question, odds are others will, too.
9: Stick with it.
Be patient. Continue with diligence and strong perseverance. And you must have realistic expectations or you set yourself up for a fall. But yes, affiliate marketing is a great opportunity!
Like anything else, affiliate marketing takes time to grow. To be candidly honest, you can expect your first six months to be lean, and your second six months should show a gradual improvement with some profits. But, give it a year or two, a solid five or even six-figure income is possible. And perhaps a few more years down’ the road, as those passive income streams continue to grow, you will reach seven-figures. It is not out of the question. If you want it bad enough, it can be done.
And lastly, the final word: If I can do it, pretty much anybody can do it!
I hope some of my writings, resources and tools can help you along the way.
The ultimate financial goal to becoming a millionaire requires out of the box thinking, taking action and breaking these rules.
But these days, thanks to inflation, a million dollars doesn’t buy all that much. That’s why you probably want to become not just a millionaire, but a multi-millionaire (Lots of millions).
And just as the goal itself has shifted, so have the rules to get there.
Most self-made mega-millionaires will tell you they didn’t follow rules, and in fact set out to break most rules on their quest to earn their fortune.
Wealth waits for no one. Take Action Now
Here are the rules they especially recommend you break if you want to become wealthy:
1: Follow the rules
We already covered this one but it bears repeating. If everyone is following the same rules and none of them are getting rich, you know the rules themselves are at fault.
2: Don’t sell
I don’t know how, when or where it became fashionable to think of selling as something worse than cleaning toilets. The fact is, nothing happens until something is sold, and the better you get at selling (online or offline), the more you will earn.
3: Get a mentor
Yeah, I’m sure that the self-made millionaires and billionaires of the world are eagerly staring at their cellphones waiting for you to call and pick their brains. Forget mentors and instead figure out what skill you need and then pay an expert to teach you that skill.
4: Wait your turn
People wait for the right job, for promotions, for opportunities and for the right time. You can waste an entire lifetime waiting for things to come to you or you can jump the que and go get them yourself.
5: Obsession is bad
Like heck it is. Figure out how you’re going to create your fortune and then become obsessed with getting it done.
6: Network like crazy
Because you want a thousand people on your contact list and not the slightest knowledge of who 980 of them are, right? Nope. Instead, focus on building a handful of super strong relationships.
7: Invest in other’s
This is great if you want to be rich when you’re 75. Just invest in other people’s businesses, programs or products and wait a few decades for the money to build. Or you could invest in your own skills and your own business and earn your fortune in the next 5 years. Your choice.
8: Do what you love
And the money is supposed to follow, right? In an ideal world this works. But there’s a very good chance that what you love is not going to build you a mega-million dollar bank account, so instead you might want to figure out what people want to spend money on and make that your business.
Payday Everyday with Passive Income
9: If you fail to plan then you plan to fail.
True to an extent – planning is important. But avoid analysis paralysis! Look, if you want to spend the next year planning what you’re going to do, and do accomplish nothing more than planning, then you may as well spend that year watching television. Instead, decide what you want to do, figure out the high-level steps and strategies, and then start taking action. There is no perfect plan or business. Adjust ad needed as you proceed. But you must proceed!
10: Don’t launch until it’s perfect
You could spend a year creating the perfect product that no one wants to buy. Or you could spend 2 weeks creating the minimum viable product and see if there’s a market for it. In the first case you need an entire year just to see if you’re on the right track, and in the second case you could create 26 MVP’s in a year, find out which one or two of them are pure gold and be earning six or seven figures by next year. Your choice.
Make Every Opportunity a Passive Income Stream Opportunity
And last but not least is always be mindful of passive income stream opportunities. Whenever you have the opportunity to work in ongoing revenue to any program, product or offering, jump on it and leverage it to the maximum extent possible. I still stand on the principle that the large majority of super wealthy have ongoing revenue coming in like clockwork. Make that hard work pay off for long periods of time whenever feasible.
What are the best affiliate marketing programs for passive income?
One of the best affiliate marketing programs for passive incomes are high-quality membership sites. Membership subscriptions provide reoccurring revenue streams and are a proven model that has not only stood the test of time, but is expanding through many service providers, retailers, and online marketing programs.
What is the best affiliate program for passive income memberships?

Your vision in creating your passive income stream will ultimately pull you forward and lead to your success.
Affiliate marketers continually search to boost conversion rates and increase commissions. Here are three proven ways to power up your affiliate marketing
If you’re hunting for the holy grail of affiliate marketing, then look no further. Sometimes it’s the simple things that make the biggest difference to your bottom line.
Take a look at these three ways for growing your affiliate business.
1. Build a Responsive List
There’s a huge difference between merely building a list and building a responsive list. Most every affiliate knows to build a list, but very few know how to create a responsive list with engaged subscribers. Check out these tips:
Set expectations upfront.
Your lead page and initial emails should make it clear what your list is about and why subscribers should be opening every email you send. People are more engaged when you meet their expectations.
Stay in touch.
You can’t build a relationship by dropping people a line once a month. You should be sending emails on a weekly basis at a minimum.
Give your best stuff.
Make people look forward to opening your emails. Give them the same sort of stuff that others are putting in paid products.
“Edutain” people.
Subscribers don’t want to read boring content, even if it’s useful, nor do they want to read entertaining fluff. So “edutain” them, which means you entertain while you educate. Use a light, conversational tone. Inject humor where appropriate.
Capture your audience’s attention!
Interact.
Don’t make a monologue your sole communication channel. Encourage your subscribers to click through to your blog or social media pages to interact with you, discuss the issues and ask questions.
If you employ the above tips, then you won’t just have a mailing list of warm bodies, you’ll have a responsive list of people who click on your links and buy what you’re selling.

2. Establish Yourself as an Authority
People don’t want to get their information from just anyone. Instead, they’re looking for a leader. They’re looking for an expert. They’re looking for an authority. That’s why you need to showcase your expertise and position yourself as an authority in your niche.
Here are three tips:
Showcase your credentials.
If you have credentials or a story that makes you an expert, flaunt it. This might include related awards, degrees, special qualifications and so on.
Land guest author and speaking spots.
The authorities are the ones who are being interviewed on webinars or even on blogs. Submit proposals to talk radio, podcasts, and blogs in your niche to land these guest speaker spots for yourself.
Associate with credible others.
When you create products or do webinars with other authorities in your niche, you’ll be seen as an authority too.
And last but not least…
3. Use Commission Gorilla to Power Up Your Affiliate Marketing
It’s no secret that adding value to an offer can boost your conversion rate. What many affiliates don’t know is that this strategy can put up to five times more money in your pocket over not offering a bonus. This strategy is a lot more powerful than many people think!
But this strategy also takes too much time. You need to know how to design web pages in order to create a good-looking promo page. You need to know how to code to do it right. It’s no wonder so many affiliates don’t bother with this powerful strategy.
So what’s the solution?
Use Commission Gorilla. This is an app designed by two super affiliates who wanted to build their own high-impact bonus pages fast. Speed is the key when it comes to affiliate marketing, especially during a product launch. With Commission Gorilla you can create bonus pages in as little as a few minutes (rather than hours or even days).
You don’t need design skills or coding skills. You don’t even need your own website.
See here for yourself. If your really serious about improving your affiliate commissions, take a few minutes to watch this video. It provides a good overview of the great features, functionality and simplicity of Commission Gorilla.

A niche is a specific segment of the market that has unique needs, wants, and preferences. By targeting a niche, you can focus your efforts and resources on a specific target market. It is important to differentiate yourself from competitors. The process of choosing a niche for affiliate marketing involves several important considerations. They may include market demand, competition, profitability, target audience, and the availability of affiliate programs.
First, it is important to identify your areas of expertise and interest. This will help you find a niche that you’re knowledgeable about and passionate about promoting. Next, use tools like Mangools, Google Trends, Keyword Planner, and Amazon Best Seller lists to research the market and see which niches are in high demand.
Seek niche opportunities:
That have a strong search volume and low competition. Additionally, research the products and services in your selected niche to see if there is potential for profitability. Look for products with high commission rates, high conversion rates, and high average order values.
It’s also important to check the affiliate programs in your selected niche and evaluate their terms and conditions. Make sure they offer a good commission rate and a reputable product or service. Furthermore, consider your target audience and the types of products and services they are interested in.
Make sure there is a good match or correlation between your niche and your target audience. Once you have narrowed down your list of potential niches, test your idea to see if there is interest from your target audience. You can do this by starting a blog or launching a small marketing campaign to gauge interest.
Choosing a niche for affiliate marketing is a process and it may take some time to find the right one for you. The key is to be persistent and keep refining your approach until you find a niche that is both profitable and fulfilling. By selecting a niche that you’re knowledgeable and passionate about, you’ll be able to build a successful affiliate marketing business that offers value to your target audience.
Research Affiliate Programs for Passive Income Security
Researching affiliate programs is an important step in building a passive income stream. An affiliate program is a marketing arrangement in which an online merchant provides compensation to affiliates for directing traffic or sales to the merchant’s website. To find the best affiliate programs for passive income, you need to do thorough research and consider several important factors.
Start by identifying your target audience and their needs and preferences. This will help you find affiliate programs that offer products and services that your target audience is interested in. Then, research the market and see which affiliate programs are in high demand and have a strong reputation. Look for programs that offer high commission rates, high conversion rates, and high average order values.
It’s also important to check the terms and conditions of each affiliate program you’re interested in. Make sure the program offers a fair commission structure, a good product or service, and a user-friendly affiliate platform. Additionally, consider the support and resources offered by each program, such as marketing materials, training, and technical support.
Once you have narrowed down your list of potential affiliate programs, test them to see which ones perform the best. This can be done by launching a small marketing campaign or by joining the affiliate program and promoting their products and services. Be sure to track your results and analyze your performance to determine which affiliate programs are the most profitable and offer the best passive income potential.
Take your time and be diligent in your research of good affiliate programs. By finding the right programs, you can create a steady stream of income by promoting products and services that you’re passionate about and that offer value to your target audience.
Building a website for passive income security
A website serves as a platform for promoting products and services, and it allows you to reach a wider audience and build your brand. When building a website for passive income, there are several important considerations to keep in mind.
Since you already have your niche, the next step is to get a domain name. Site domains and hosting are readily avaialbe. REsearch to find what best fits your needs. Namecheap and Groove have some great low cost packages. And you need to select a website builder or platform. Here again there are many options available, including Groove, WordPress, Wix, and Squarespace. Choose a platform that is user-friendly, affordable, and provides the features and functionality you need to build a professional-looking website.
Note that I have mentioned all-in-one platform, Groove several times. I guess that is really the intent of all-in-one platforms. They have everything you need to operate your business. I highly recommend Groove. They offer a ton of features for free that will meet the needs of any business you can imagine. See all of there features that are covered in their free offer here. Another all-in-one platform that is not as well know is Highlevel. Both have very good programs and all-in-one platforms really make a ton of sense, and save a lot of expense and time. Give them strong consideration.
It’s also important to create high-quality, relevant content that offers value to your target audience. And promote your website and reach out to your target audience. We will discuss content and promotion next.

When writing your content, make sure it is well-researched and provides valuable information to your target audience. Use clear and concise language, and avoid using industry jargon or technical terms that may be confusing to your audience. Additionally, make sure your content is visually appealing by including images, videos, and other multimedia elements.
It’s also important to optimize your content for search engines. This can be done by using keywords, meta tags, and other SEO strategies.

There are several key metrics you should track when monitoring your website for results.
First, track your website traffic. This includes the number of visitors to your website, how they found your site, and how long they stayed. You can use tools such as Google Analytics to track your website traffic and get a better understanding of your audience.

This includes blog posts, product reviews, and other types of content that promotes your affiliate products and services. Make sure your content is well-researched, engaging, and optimized for search engines.
Next, use affiliate marketing tools and plugins to improve your website’s performance. For example, you can use tools such as affiliate link cloaking to hide long and ugly affiliate links, and affiliate link management plugins to manage and organize your affiliate links in one place.
It’s also important to continually test and optimize your website’s design and layout. This includes elements such as the color scheme, font, images, and layout. Make sure your website is easy to navigate, visually appealing, and provides a positive user experience.
Additionally, make sure your website is optimized for mobile devices. This is important because more and more people are using their smartphones and tablets to access the internet. A mobile-optimized website will help ensure that your target audience has a positive experience regardless of the device they’re using. Consider using Call Loop to incorporate SMS messaging and the huge opportunities with mobile traffic.
Finally, continually track and analyze your website’s performance with tools such as Google Analytics to track your website traffic, conversion rates, and affiliate earnings.

Consistency is an essential aspect of affiliate marketing, and it plays a significant role in long-term success of any affiliate marketing programs. In order to achieve success, it’s crucial for affiliates to be consistent in their marketing strategies and efforts.
One of the benefits of consistency is that it helps to build trust with your audience. When you consistently provide valuable content and promote products that align with your audience’s needs and interests, they are more likely to trust you and become loyal followers. This, in turn, can lead to increased sales and conversions, which is the ultimate goal of any affiliate marketing campaign.

Always remain Patient. Passive Income Security is Long-Term
Patience is a crucial virtue for affiliate marketers. Achieving success with affiliate marketing requires time and persistence. Affiliate marketing is a competitive industry, and it does take time to establish a strong online presence and build a loyal following before you can generate substantial revenue.
One of the reasons why patience is important is that affiliate marketing requires consistent effort over an extended period. Affiliates need to invest time into creating valuable content, building relationships with their audience, and promoting products. These efforts may not yield immediate results, but over time, they can lead to increased traffic, conversions, and sales.
Another reason why patience is essential is that the process of building a successful affiliate marketing campaign involves testing, trial and error. Affiliates need to experiment with different strategies, products, and promotional methods to find what works best for them and their audience. This can be a time-consuming and sometimes frustrating process, but it’s essential for long-term success in affiliate marketing.
Affiliate marketing requires a great deal of patience and persistence no matter what you might hear or see. Building solid, passive income streams takes time, effort, and a willingness to experiment and learn from failure. By being patient and persistent, affiliates can build a strong online presence, establish a loyal following, and generate substantial revenue over time.
Lastly, never, ever, ever give up. Tenacity, and the quality of being persistent and refusing to give up, is a critical trait for affiliate marketers. The road to success in affiliate marketing can be long and challenging, and it requires a strong determination to keep pushing forward, even in the face of setbacks and obstacles. Many don’t succeed and give up.
Affiliate marketing requires perseverance and a willingness to try new things. Affiliates must be willing to experiment with different strategies and approaches, and to learn from their mistakes and failures. This can be a challenging process, and it can be easy to give up when faced with setbacks, disappointing results. and losses.
Another reason why tenacity is crucial in affiliate marketing is that it can take time to see substantial results from your efforts. Building a strong online presence, establishing a loyal following, and generating significant passive income revenue streams all take time and consistent and continual effort. It’s essential for affiliates to maintain their focus and persistence, even when results are slow in coming, to ensure long-term success.
The path to success in this field is very challenging and requires consistent effort over an extended period. By maintaining a persistent, never-give-up attitude, affiliates can persevere and overcome obstacles, learn from their mistakes, and eventually go on to achieve their goals of passive income security.
Next Steps to passive income security
It is true that some products, programs, or platforms are easy…. Well, it’s all relative right? “Easier” may be a better way of more accurately portraying. I am just like any other affiliate marketer when promoting. I want present the product in as attractive light as possible, yet still being factual. And some of the products and programs I promote are “easy”. But even if these are on the “easier” end of the difficulty scale, everything still takes work and diligence. Some just not as much as others. I try to search for products and programs that are easier, have more work done for you (DFY), or less technical requirements, and all those types of things that create challenges.
But mark my words, no matter how “easy” anything is, there is still plenty of work to make it work or be successful. After all, even the best , most-expensive vacuum cleaner on the market doesn’t suck up one spec of dust or dirt if it is just sitting in the closet. So thanks for taking a step to better yourself by reading this blog. That’s one step for the day. So instead of taking just one or two steps today, why not go for a walk all the way around the block!

You have probably heard about Sqribble, the cloud-based tool that allows you to easily create eBooks. I kept hearing and seeing things about it, so I wanted to check it out myself. Here’s the truth about Sqribble.
Let’s face it, we all want more traffic, more subscribers and more daily sales. And there’s one simple solution that still works like gangbusters for this — eBooks.
Whether it’s a powerful lead magnet such as a free report or whitepaper, or a Kindle book that you sell daily… digital books are still an awesome way to attract traffic and sales for almost any type of business.
But there’s just one problem — creating them can cause all kinds of headaches. Writing, formatting, designing… it can take days or even weeks to create an eBook, plus a steep learning curve and a handful of expensive tools you’ll need to master… before you’ve even hit publish!
But there’s a brand-new tool on the market that promises to change all that.
It’s called Sqribble.
What is Sqribble?
Sqribble is a cloud-based tool that allows you to create eBooks (reports, whitepapers, etc.) in seconds. It uses ready—made templates and drag n’ drop design features that make self-publishing your eBooks a breeze.
How does it work?
When you log into Sqribble, you’ll see a bunch of eBook templates to choose from. These are all based on different categories, so you’ll need to find one that matches your market/topic/niche.
Once you’ve selected the template you want to use, you simply click “view” to see how your eBook will look (don’t worry, we’ll add your content next.)
In this view screen, you can see how the book will be laid out and get a feel for the style. If you don’t like it, you can always go back and choose another template (there’s 50 templates to choose from, and you can also edit the templates too, in all kinds of ways.)
You’ll notice that the layouts and designs are very slick. They look like professional publications!
Next, you’ll be asked where you want to source your content for the book. You can choose:
— Grab from a URL
— Start from scratch
— Copy and paste manually
— Upload Word File
— Start from Article Collection
Sqribble caught the squirrel’s’ attention! Use high quality images with Sqribble to create top shelf products!
Let’s take a closer look at these options
— Grab from a URL
This allows you to insert any URL you want, and Sqribble will automatically pull the content from that page and insert into your book. It strips the html code and only inserts the text from the page. This is my fave method, because it saves a ton of time, and allows you to use expert content (with credits) so you can target topics and niches you’re not an expert in!
— Start from scratch
As it sounds, this option allows you to enter your content like you’d enter it into a Word document. You just type straight into the page.
— Copy and paste manually
This allows you to copy content from anywhere you want, and paste into the book, where the book will format and lay it out for you professionally.
— Upload Word File
You can get Sqribble to pull your content straight from a Word document, stripping out any code or weird formatting.
— Start from Article Collection
Here you can extract content from Sqribble’s huge library of private label articles which you can use for free, without crediting authors or linking to the source. It’s another great way to quickly fill your book with content, for free!
Then Edit
Finally, you’ll move to an editing screen, where you can resize text, move content around, edit text directly, add media, links, lists, call to action areas, new pages, and a whole bunch of other options for customizing the look and feel of individual pages or the entire book.
You can even add new pages that use a totally different layout to the rest of your book, giving you a huge amount of flexibility and endless options for your book.
While editing, another thing I really liked was the Themes option. With a single click, you can instantly change the color theme and font style of your entire book. It’s like giving your book a new “skin” and it’s just one more feature that sets Sqribble apart from the other tools out there.
Finally, when you’re ready to publish, you hit the little “Generate eBook” button in the top right corner of the screen and voila, your book is now ready!
You can either open the book in a browser to preview it quickly or save as PDF.
Is Sqribble right for you?
If you’re already creating lead magnets or eBooks for sale, then I have no doubt that Sqribble is going to save you hours of work and tons of money on freelancers (if you outsource the design or writing side of it.)
For that reason, I truly believe that Sqribble is well worth the investment and perfectly suited for most small to medium size businesses, especially self-publishers and info marketers.
It’s also a great tool to use if you’re a freelancer or agency, working with clients to create professional eBooks (includes commercial rights, plus a done for you agency website, which is a big bonus!). You could easily charge $100’s for this service, and with Sqribble, you could get the work done in way less time than it wouldn’t normally take you.
Here is a short video highlighting some of Sqribble’s features and capabilities.
Now for the review. You already have seen my enthusiasm about Sqribble. I had been looking for options to streamline the clunky way that I have been creating my own lead magnets. Once I ultimately learned the power and simplicity of Sqribble, I purchased it. And I have been very pleased with it.
So here is the skinny, according to me.
The bad
— Some of my favorite features are locked behind upsells (3D covers and Flipbook feature). So I had to pay for the upsells, but they were worth it when considering the time I save.
— When inserting content from a URL, you need to cite the URL source and/or credit the original author of the content, if it’s not your own (this isn’t really Sqribble’s fault — it’s just the law!). And I guess it is probably good that I do it now, so I am not placing myself at risk.
The good
— Easy to use. Especially considering what it does and how simple it is to the old way I struggled with multiple tools and software.
— Glitch free. I have not had any problems at all
— Unlimited use (one-time payment). I hate subscriptions!
The awesome
— Tons of excellent eBook templates
— Professional page layouts. Sqribble really allowed me to bump it up a whole bunch on the quality!
— Automatic content. Again, super efficient and a real time saver. So easy to modify vs. starting from scratch.
— 3D cover creator (available through upsells)
— Flipbook creator (available through upsells)
— Free commercial agency + website included!
Price
A one-time $47 (later will be increased to $197).
About the creator
Sqribble has been developed by Adeel Chowdhry, who is a well-known internet entrepreneur and best seller, with over ten years of experience and has previously created worldwide hits such as Pixel Studio FX which sold tens of thousands of units all around the world. He’s known for creating high quality professional solutions and I expect no less from Sqribble.
Overall verdict: the truth about Sqribble
There’s no doubt, Sqribble is a powerful eBook (plus) creation tool. I guess I should have realized that this is so much more than eBooks, but that was stuck in my mind. Unlike other tools, it’s packed with everything you need to start cranking out professional looking books, reports, whitepapers and more in just minutes. Really!
With automatic content, drag n’ drop editing, plus a host of templates and designs ready to customize, you’d struggle to find a more seamless eBook publishing tool than this.
Being cloud based is a big bonus too. No need to download any software that clogs up your computer. Whether you’re casually publishing books or you’re constantly creating lead gen reports for yourself or clients, Sqribble can — and WILL — save you hours of hassle and potentially thousands of dollars in freelance fees over the coming months and years.
I previously used some freelance for my more important projects, and I did the rest myself. Now I can do it all myself, and at a fraction of the time, and the quality that I can create is better.
For this reasons, I am sold on Sqribble, and it gets my full seal of approval. I encourage you to check it out. It’s a very powerful, yet simple tool.

It’s February, are you on the fast track to reach your Passive Income Lifestyle? Or has life already gotten in the way, and derailed your goals and plans?
Don’t worry, you’re not alone… And there’s still time to take a step back, breathe, reorganize, and still achieve your goals. Be it business related, health or wellness.
Here’s a real world example of how I got behind and had to walk through the steps above.
I had a meeting last week with a business partner who is collaborating on a project with me.
We outlined a new concept for a passive income product we want to offer, who we wanted to offer it to, and even chose dates for all the course training.
Then we did what you’re supposed to do. We took action on items that we could and got what we saw as the first step out of the way: we wrote the basic sales copy for the product.
And last, we planned out the next steps in the process and parted ways to get busy “making this happen.”
And then a week goes by…
Nothing else has gotten done. Our passive income project was stalled.
Why did it stall?
Simple. Though we made great to-do list of all the items we need to get done, we missed a crucial step.
And it was one that could have derailed the entire project if we hadn’t caught it soon enough (we still have to postpone the training by a week, but that’s fixable).
What step did we miss?
We didn’t put solid deadlines to our actions.
We assumed the action items would get done.
Then the inevitable happened… life and all the other business stuff got in the way… and very little else was accomplished.

Good intentions don’t get your projects done or ring the cash register.
DEADLINES placed on each action get projects done.
Deadlines can be dates. Of if you want to get more specific, deadlines can be a time of day… or both! (I like deadlines like “by noon Tuesday” or “by close of business Friday” or “2:00 Monday!”)
So one of my favorites is “close of business Friday”. Why? Because a definite deadline gives you a fixed point in time to take a specific action and accomplish a concrete step toward your goal or outcome. And by COB on Friday, everyone clearly knows it has to be completed THIS week!
It might sound elementary, but by gosh, no matter how accomplished and competent you are, if you skip the basics, you won’t get the results you want.
By the way…
My partner and I have a meeting scheduled for Friday at noon to get deadlines set for our to-do list.
I guess it’s better late than never, right?
So the next time you have a project that’s not getting done, do this:
1. Break it down into concrete action steps 2. Put them in order 3. Decide who is doing which step and assign it 4. Put a deadline (day, time, or both) on each action 5. Git ‘er done!
These 5 steps will help you get any project done, on time.
Everything can be broken down to a formula. Success is something anyone can achieve. It’s just about doing the right things in the right order.
Following these steps will help you accomplish your goals and reach success. Do you have actionable goals and deadlines to reach your passive income lifestyle dreams? Any successful online marketing program needs to incorporate Passive Income Streams.
So in my experience and opinion, a passive income stream should be a priority component in any online marketing model.
The Secret Sauce to a Passive Income Lifestyle
Now don’t get me wrong, there is absolutely nothing wrong with individual sales. I have many products and programs that are a single sale, or even a funnel of multiple sales. But once the customer buys, then they are done. So sales are great. Nobody can argue when you make sales.
But the secret sauce to a passive income lifestyle is….
a well-designed program that has reoccurring revenue.
Too often people overlook one of the very most important factors of a Passive Income Stream. Once you have done all the work and set the stream in motion, it is continual. It’s an automated system that keeps on generating income. You just have to maintain it, care for it and feed it.
