[Garmah,
You ask such basic questions then post this gem. It's an excellent post copied straight from Jason Green's blog: http://www.sitesalary.com/blog/affiliate-article-marketing-guide-earn-100-a-day-in-60-days/
You have just offended everyone with unacceptable plagiarism. Please do NOT do this again!

hi

Everytime I see someone make a post promising you how to make $100 a day I see DP members flood around and go crazy.

If I was starting out again and wanted to make money quickly without spending anything other than my own effort this is the mthod I would do.

When you break it down you realize that the $100 a day target is not that hard to acheive.
Let's break it down.
- We'll promote an affiliate product that pays roughly at least a $25 commission. This way I only need at least 4 sales a day to make $100.
- I'm going to pick a real tangible product that is in high demand.

- After looking around the product I choose is a High Definition Television. Big demand for these and affiliate comissions are high.

- I now look in Amazon's bestsellers to see what is popular.

- The most popular HDTVs are Samsung models roughly priced between $500 - $2000. Amazon pays a 4% commission on these so if I sold a $1000 TV I'd get $40.

Now how do I make money with this???

- First I will make a quick website that I can create a price comparison page on. I want to compare at least 3 prices from around the web for the particular model I choose to promote

- I join the Amazon Affiliate program and also two other affiliate programs in Commission Junction that sell this TV. These pay between $25 and $150 for each sale I generate depending on the model and the particular affiliate program.

That means I need between 1-2 sales a day on average to reach my $100 a day goal - see how real this goal is becoming!!!

- To get started I simply make a page that compares the three prices outlining the best price. This page is useful to visitors as they can quickly find the cheapest TV while I get paid a commission... brilliant.

Now all I need is traffic...

- I give the price comparison the title of:
"Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch HDTV Price Comparison."
I also fill it with lots of content about the TV to make sure I can attract lots of SE traffic.

- Now I need to build links to the site to help get SE traffic. I will do this with article marketing.

This is where I write an article and submit it to *** number of directories. The articles give linkbacks to my site (helping to get more SE traffic) and also the articles can get traffic themselves (as they also rank in the search engines) meaning the users will click the links in the article and land at my price comparison pages.

- What I don't want to do is write 1 article and submit it to 100 directories - this is fine but not the most effective way as Google will treat 99% of them as duplicate content.

- Instead I will write one article but use JetSpinner (free) to spin it into 100 unique articles with unique titles. This way the chance of being hit for duplicate content is less - and each article will be slightly different so get rankings for slightly different phrases.

How to write the articles for traffic

- The most important thing in an article is making sure the title contains a strong keyword phrase. See my post on this here.

- I did a search for a "Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch HDTV" in Google. There were NO exact matches.
WOW!!!! I can really break into this little niche very easily.

- I could come up with plenty more little variations like:
Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch TV
Samsung LNT 4661F 46 inch HDTV
Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch High Def TV
Samsung LNT 46 inch HDTV
Samsung LNT4661F etc...

- Using Jetspinner I could create 100 variations of the title of my article to be used in my article submissions.

- Chances are some of these articles will hit the top 10 in Google, MSN and Yahoo and people will read the articles and click through to my price comparison site. Plus the extra link backs will also raise the rankings of my price comparison pages.

Rinse and Repeat

- Each day I make a new price comparison page for a HDTV model

- Each Day I submit 100 variations of my article to 100 directories. The articles links back to my site and each submission of 100 articles drives a trickle of traffic (say just 10 visitors a day).

- After 1 month I have had 30 submission and get 300 visitors a day. Because the traffic is so targeted and the page I drive visitors to is actually useful for every 300 visits I get at least 1 sale.

- That's at the very least $50 a day - but probably more if I get higher conversions.

If I do exactly the same in the next month and I've reached my $100 a day guaranteed!

Great article - have you tried using the same method on an easy converting offer - i.e. something that converts on a few fields of information rather than an actual sale?

Did you write this? I could have sworn this exact post was floating around on another forum.
