My first Commisions!

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

While looking at the ads over at CPA Empire I found a few that really sparked my interest. So I started up a little campaign to test the waters. Well it worked!

I’m doing pretty well with this and averaging about 100 bucks a day! With no signes of it slowing down. I will keep you updated!

Capitol & Credit Cards are a go!

Saturday, February 2nd, 2008

Today was a really good day for me. I woke up early and went and opened two new bank accounts, one personal account and one that I will use for my online endeavors. I also applied for my first ever credit card. It will be a student card so the limit won’t be to much, but hey, you gotta start somewhere. I also told my mom about my ideas and she agreed to hook me up with $300 to get started. $300 is much lower than what I was initially thinking, but after hearing what people had to say, I decided to start slow.

My Blog

As well as the addition of my About page, I have also added some adwords ads, just for kicks and I added the CommentLuv plugin. I really like this plugin and first saw it in use over at Caroline Middlebrook’s blog, where she uses it as an incentive for making comments.

Anyway, I will keep you updated on any progress I make, the next few weeks should be very interesting.

Affiliates, Credit Cards, and Progress!

Friday, February 1st, 2008

Well, I would like to say that today has been an exciting day for me! I did a lot of work involving this Blog and Affiliate Marketing. First off, I woke up to a bunch of positive comments on my first post. Hell, I though no one was reading this blog, I have no idea how they found it. The coolest thing was that one of the comments was from Caroline Middlebrook, it was very positive and had some good tips. Thanks a lot to everyone that took the time to make a comment, I love reading them and will always reply (you can email me also). After reading all the comments and sending some replies and emails, I started to work on my about page. I put up a few facts about myself and included a few picture so you could get a better idea of who I am. After this I headed off to class (full time student!).

When I got back from class I put focus into signing up for a few Affiliate Networks. I went ahead and submitted my application to Azoogle, CPA Empire, Hydra Network, and good ol Google Adsense. The first three listed there all require a phone call to confirm some crap which will be interesting because I have no idea what they are going to ask LOL. I suppose you will find out in my next post! Oh ya, I almost forgot! I also thought about signing up for Adbrite, which I am sure you all know. Adbrite is that advertising network that has those stupid double underlined keywords that pop out when you are reading something, they really piss me off. However, I decided I would give them a shot…….until I see what is in the security box…..
Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

Sorry I had to use image shack there, Wordpress was being stupid.

After seeing the “SCAMS” message on adbrite, I decided it was a sign and I did not sign up ;).

The next thing I did was look at a few credit cards online, I will most likely just get a regular card with a $500 limit or so because I don’t really have any credit. This will be really cool because I have been limited to Bank cards. Don’t worry tho! I plan to use care!

Lastly, I went and signed up and Stumbleupon.com and stumbled myself as well as some other blogs that have really helped me out. Whew, that was one hell of a post! Please leave comments, and as always you can email me at Andrew@newbaffiliate.com, I will get back to you.

Thanks for reading,
