The Man Who Makes
$1 Million in Affiliate Commissions
By David Kamau
His success is phenomenal. Well, not many can
claim to make $1 Million a year in affiliate marketing.
And at only 27 years of age!
His name is Jeremy Palmer. Until recently, he
was virtually unknown in the marketing circles, simply
because he preferred to make his money
silently.
Now this Jeremy guy has written an ebook about
his affiliate marketing techniques. Having bought dozens
of affiliate marketing ebooks, most of them duds, I was
hesitant to buy this one. After all, what could this guy
possibly write about that was not already covered by
dozens others?
But curiosity, a huge discount and a
recommendation from another highly respected affiliate
marketer made me want to check it out. Still, I
determined that I would ask for a refund as soon as I
found out this was just one of the numerous
duds.
The writer, Jeremy Palmer, is 2005 Commission
Junction Horizon Award winner for performance. He is also
a Yahoo™ Search Marketing Ambassador. In short, he is the
real deal. What about his book?
Jeremy starts you from the basics, slowly
building you up to advanced techniques. Experienced
affiliates can skip most of the beginning
section.
What sets this book apart from all the others is
the way Jeremy breaks down the techniques, while adding
subtle but highly effective tweaks, twists and
tricks.
For example, he takes you through what he calls
the keyword buying cycle. This is a simple but brilliant
technique for finding converting keywords while
minimizing wasteful (and therefore costly) clicks.
This piece of information by itself is
invaluable.
Next, Jeremy also teaches you how to how to
easily and quickly set up a website, even if HTML is an
alien word to you. Better still, he shows where to find
free and low-cost resources. He goes farther, and tells
you the types of websites best suited for certain types
of businesses and niches.
Another important thing he covers is how to use
the two leading Pay Per Click search engines, Yahoo
Search (formerly Overture) and Google Adwords for fast
(and profitable) results.
One thing I wish he would have explained more is
how he is able to turn low-search keywords into some of
his most profitable campaigns as he claims. Other than
that, everything else is well elaborated, with
examples.
Jeremy shows you how to do keyword research
using free resources. No additional expensive software
necessary.
Product research is also covered, extensively.
He shows you how to find hot products and services to
promote, how to measure demand and check out the
competition or find low-competition niches. As with
everything else in the book, his techniques are original
and innovative.
And, his book is not littered with affiliate
links, as is common practice with most ebooks. Actually,
most of his techniques use free resources.
One big challenge in affiliate marketing is how
to build killer landing pages. This is where most of us
loose potential buyers. Jeremy shows you a very simple
technique of building winning landing pages on the
fly.
Besides giving examples all way, the author he
also tells you some interesting personal experiences
throughout. Everything is well illustrated with images.
The language is simple and easy to understand.
As with most (if not all) super affiliates,
Jeremy appears in favor of Pay Per Click search engine
method of driving traffic. This is understandable, as
it’s so far the quickest and most effective marketing
method available. But other marketing methods are covered
in detail as well.
Overall: No matter your level of experience in
affiliate marketing (or associate marketing), beginner or
advanced, this ebook is a must have. It is 140 pages of
useful information. I didn’t point out many weaknesses in
the book, because I did not find them.
