ANTHONY MORRISON: ANTHONY MORRISON LIVE

No, I haven't forgotten about my blog or the site! I have however, been trying to decide what product I should try to promote, that will equal conversions. I haven't really had problems creating ads, it is trying to get people to view my site. I don't have the money to pay for promotion (which most sites require) so my ads are usually placed very low. So, if I can just find a way to promote my site and ads to the tens of thousands on the internet I'm sure I would be in business! Ahh, but I...

So, on my last entry, I was talking about my love of reading. The comment by Bob_Sims was great! Funny thing is I never even thought of creating a newsletter and doing book reviews! That is definitely an option I am going to start researching and try to do! I would love it, and believe me it wouldn't be hard for me to find books to write about! Thanks again for some great advice!!!!

So, one of the first rules Anthony teaches in his book and on his tutorial videos is to pick ads for things that you know. Like he says if you pick what you know you can use that when writing your ads to pick out the best quality about what you are selling. However, when you decide to branch out and start advertising other products, how do you decide what to pick? There are so many choices, and you want to pick one that other people would want. Once you pick it, you have to do your homework...

So, I was checking my adds on some of the free sites that I have been using and I was surprised when I found one of my ads had been clicked on 480 times!! The downside was there wasn't any follow thru clicks, so it really wasn't helping me much. But, at least I know that people are reading what I write! Now, I just have to work on making the ads more attractive. I don't have pictures to post for them which would help tremendously but at least it is making me think and be creative with my words....

So, I was checking my click count today and there are even more than ever before!! Things seem like they are starting to happen. Plus, I am finally finding out which items are getting more views, so that I can start focusing on what people want. The part I wish I knew is how many of the clicks I am getting are from one person or more. Sometimes I wonder if someone is board and just clicking on things! (I know I've done that before) Anyway, no I haven't had thousands of clicks yet, I know I...

So, I have to take the time to thank those who have posted comments on my blogs with information, and even the hello's! It is so nice to know that there are people that will take the time to answer my questions and try to give me what knowledge they have. I just hope that one day I can do the same for someone that is getting started, like myself. I know that is what helps keep me motivated to succeed with this venture! I know that if I stick with it, I will find my niche. Right now it is...

So, there hasn't been a whole lot of change, I still get random clicks on things here and there...nothing that follows through. What I can't seem to figure out is what I should be advertising for. The clicks that I am getting are all for different products and usually one for each, so it's not like I can say that this product is getting more views and then try to promote it more! I have noticed though that the work at home things and weightloss things on the page are getting the most though....

Yes, I am still working at it!!! It's funny cause I can get one click here and one click there, but I still haven't managed to get the cult following that I need. Ok, maybe cult following isn't quite what I'm going for, but I am going to prove that you can do this without have any start up money!!! That is now my goal. I can't afford to pay per click right now, especially not knowing if any of those clicks are generating money for me. So, I am trying to find any way and every way to advertise...

I know it has been a few days since my last post...I had a lot on my plate at work that needed my immediate attention. But here I am, while I have no new updates as to my affiliate marketing attempts, I at least want the blogging world to realize I am still here!
One new thing I finally received my first friend request here on the site!!! Unfortunatly I haven't figured out how to do that yet. I know it is probably staring me in the face, but I do have a short attention span (yikes)...

Woo Hoo! I check my charts today and saw that I got some clicks today! Now, I don't know if they resulted in anything yet; but knowing that somebody or more were visiting my site is a great energy boost! It's so funny though, some of the clicks were not for things that I have tried to write an ad for yet! So, I think if I just keep plugging away and am persistent I may be able to pull this adventure off!

So, I just realize that I was posting my links wrong as I was creating my ads. Now, for most people this would be bad news...but not for me! Once I found out what I was doing wrong, I immediately got back out there and started doing it right! I love writing these ads so writing new ones was not a problem. If I didn't say it in my first blog post, for me this is a learning process. I don't know about most people, but for me I love to learn. I love to see the progression from my beginning to...

So, I am still attempting to break into the affiliate marketing business. So far, I have gotten the most success from promoting on myspace, however, I still haven't actually made any money yet. So, I am still trying to figure out how to generate the clicks that lead to the payday! Not that I am discouraged by any means!!! I actually find this quite addicting trying to break in! I did find a site called adlandpro that may be beneficial, but I haven't seen any results yet. As with most things...

I have tried several of the techniques from the book...and in a way I see how they will work, but right now I think I need to get myself out there more. It doesn't work so well unless a lot of people are seeing the ads or blogs, or whatever. The hard part for me so far is trying to get my website out there! But, I am going to continue to plug away and hope that I can start getting the ball rolling. I did get the business cards, and take some with me. I also try to put my website out there on...

So, I begin today both amused and excited at the same time. I decided last week to do a trial run with a myspace ad. So, I chose a product and created an ad for it. I only chose to run it for a week and only $10 dollars a day. I figure that way I may be spending money, but at least it will give me an idea on people's interest in the product. Well, after three days I was quite suprised to find people actually have clicked on the ad!!! The down side, as far as I can tell no one has actually...

Starting this blog is a learning process for me. I have never had a blog, nor have I ever considered one until I read Anthony's book. Now, I see the usefulness of them.
The hard part is making them interesting to the public. Why would you want to read my blog...because it will show my growth! Before this, I never thought I could do anything remotely close to this.
At the time of this posting I am still in the very beginning phase. I have just finished the homework...
