I'm a bit of an ebook junkie...

Yes I admit it. I still to this day buy internet marketing related ebooks looking for that extra something that will take us to the next level. This is despite the fact that we already make enough online not to have to work in a regular 9 to 5 job.

I figure even if we only get one thing out of it then it is well worth the money.

But even so, I constantly find that even some of the better ebooks lack the detail that most people want and need to see, especially for those new to making money online. Or worse they don't know how to write step-by-step guides correctly and miss out on vital information that leaves the reader guessing on where to go next...and some even leave out information on purpose as they don't want to give away all their secrets.

I knew we could do better and this is our goal with this ebook. We want you to have every step you'll need to make a living online. So we are giving you our complete blueprint of what we do to make thousands of dollars a month online simply by promoting Amazon products.

Why are we writing this ebook?

Now I can just hear those skeptics out there who are wondering why we would give away our secrets in an ebook when we are already making enough money from Amazon to not have to make an extra few dollars on an ebook. Well there are a few reasons why we are prepared to do this:

First of all, there are literally thousands of different products that can be promoted in Amazon so there is no problem with having to worry about competition.

Second, we know that it is time for us to diversify so providing our own informational product instead of promoting someone else's is a good way to do it.

And third, we want to start building up our email list. I keep hearing that the money is in the list so I want to prove it for myself.

So who are we?

Many of you have probably never heard of us before. There's a reason for that.

We've been making enough money online to not have to worry about promoting ourselves. We just don't need to - we make money from methods that don't require an email list or networking tactics or joint ventures. So we've been pretty quiet up until now and probably will stay pretty quiet apart from a few information products we want to develop...like the one you are reading now for instance.

For those few that do know us, it's probably via our internet marketing blog at http://www.affiliateblogonline.com . This is really our play blog. We created that blog because we like to share information about our online business - at this stage, it doesn't make much money at all. In fact, at this point in time we have no intention of even trying to make money from that blog - we do so much better via Amazon products which means that we can just enjoy the affiliate marketing blog for what it is.

We've been around since about 2004 dabbling in online marketing but didn't really get serious until around a couple of years ago.

We've learnt from some of the best in the business through various ebooks and guides. When you've been around as long as we have you start to pick up what works and what doesn't and we've learnt to pick the best of the best from each of our mentors and combine it into the ultimate money making model which is what we are going to give you in this ebook.

We would love to see you make a success of your online business and we know that with this book and your persistence you will be able to reach your goals. Just stay focused and you will succeed!

The most important thing you need to know before you begin...

If you want to make money online then there is one really important thing you need to know. It's really quite simple but most people don't do it. This is what prevents most people from making money because when it comes down to it, most methods for making money online work. However there is usually only ONE reason why they don't....it's because most people never give it a chance...they just don't stick at it long enough for it to succeed.

They expect miracles and to be making money within a day, a week or a month. Sorry to disappoint but that rarely if ever happens. For most people who work at it, it will take at least three months and sometimes longer before they start seeing some sort of money trickle in. Most others have given up by then and they sit and complain that it's impossible to make money online or they move on to yet another money making scheme and eventually give up on that as well.

You HAVE to keep at it if you are going to make it online. You have to get the concept of giving up right out of your head. Just don't make it an option. Do this and you will be a success!

How does this work?

The process is pretty simple really. It involves six steps and for each of those steps we are going to provide as much detail as possible.

Each of the steps listed below is absolutely critical in the process. If you miss one, then you just won't get the success you are after so keep to the plan and don't deviate.

In a nutshell these are the steps you need to take:

1. Choose five products in Amazon using our criteria.

2. Do a bit of keyword research.

3. Check out the competition.

4. Write a review for that product using our format...it's not as hard as you think.

5. Post the review to your blog or website.

6. Get traffic to those pages.

That's it really! Now you may be thinking that this is nothing new. Thousands of affiliate marketers promote Amazon products don't they? That's correct, but we do it soooo much better. We have individual pages on our blogs that are making over $500 a week and at least one that is making over $1000....yes, that's just one page of content linking to one product on Amazon. That's a full-time income from just one page of content. Now imagine if you had 5 pages making that sort of money...sounds good doesn't it?

Why we use Amazon?

Amazon has many advantages over using other merchants but the main advantage is that it converts so well.

When we started with affiliate marketing we were promoting products from merchants in Commission Junction, ShareaSale and Linkshare. We were getting sales but it really wasn't all that impressive. We certainly weren't making a full time income from it.

It was only when we decided to add Amazon links that we started seeing real results. To be absolutely honest, we were astounded at the difference in sales.

It comes down to the fact that people trust Amazon and they are used to shopping on the site so when they see a link to Amazon on a webpage they are more likely to click through. Also, once they get to Amazon they tend to buy other things as well...not just what you sent them there for. So you may get more than one sale per click through.

To illustrate this with a real life example, in November 2009 we had 2292 sales on one of our Amazon accounts. Of those 2292 sales, 524 were for products we were promoting. The other 1768 were for products that had nothing to do with our site. So we actually sold more unrelated products than related products. Go figure!

Amazon only pays 4% commission...how can I make a living from that?
