I have just downloaded and read this report by PPC Classroom, 5 deadly affiliate mistakes.

All I can say is go and download it! It’s a 33 page quick read. It took me just 20 minutes and I even posted a comment in their blog all within 20 minutes.

As you probably have guessed, this is an affiliate promotion.

I originally signed up with PPCClassroom 2.0 last year. To be totally honest, I haven’t even finished the original 9 modules! I think I’ve only finished the first module.

My thinking up to this point was to try to go the “free” route using web 2.0 tactics. I have mostly used blogging as a platform. I have also tried Squidoo. But to be honest, I am not getting too good of repeating visitors.

About a month ago, I started to incorporate articles in my posts. I started to see some improvements in visitors. But still not too good.

In order to fully “made it” in affiliate marketing, I believe you have to incorporate all traffic souces at your disposal. And that include free and paid sources.

Free traffic sources include web 2.0, article marketing, blog and ping.

Paid traffic sources would be the PPC traffic., newsletter, PR, etc.. You start a PPC campaign and for each visitor who clicked on your ad, you pay. It’s a simply system.

Of course, like everything else, the more competition there is, the more you have to be better in your advertising. This is same for free and paid sources.

Having tried some of the free traffic sources, I would think that paid traffic has its advantages. Granted, I haven’t tried all of the free sources. Article marketing, for example, is one that I have yet to do.

It’s a matter of trading time and money. If you are a newbie marketer and with limited resources, you might want to try the organic or free traffic sources’ route. With this, you have to position yourself as a brand and an expert. You have to get people to talk about you and your site. Only then would you able to get repeat visitors and then customers.

Fast trek to PPC and it would only take 10-20 minutes for an ad in Adwords to show up in Google paid listings. Adwords is simply the fastest in terms of speed to market. There are others like Yahoo!, MSN, Miva, and other smaller PPC engines. But Google Adwords is still the best.

So if you are looking for getting more traffic to your site and more eye balls for your offer, PPC would be a great way to go.

Sure, you have to manage your campaigns. But you have to spend money to earn money. As long as you follow simple directions and manage your compaigns, you shold start to see results.

PPC Classroom 2.0 is relaunching on Feb. 24th, 2009. They are looking for adding only 1000  members. On the 19th of Febrary, 2009, they are holding a free webinar to show you how to find great affiliate products to promote. I have seen their free shows and would recommend wholeheartedly that you go, watch, and learn. They are that informative.

One other thing, PPC Classroom offers you a chance to have two niche researched monthly for you. They even offer camtasia videos on these niches. It’s a great way to see how they do their research and evaluating programs. And there’s a paid forum too where you can go ask questions.

So again, check out this free report and webinar. Visit PPC Classroom 2.0.

They’re GIVING you $5,000?

Until this Saturday Oct. 18th, 2008! It all starts today at noon.
I called Anik & Amit nuts a few weeks ago when they launched their $2,997 product for $77…

Then, I got over it – it’s been a huge success, students are already implementing and seeing results (just 3 days into the course)!

They proved to me that they really are nuts…

They’re now literally handing $5,000 worth of ACTUAL courses & software from OTHER top marketers JUST to TRY their PPC Classroom 2.0.

These are not “inflated values” -literally each of these packages are either for sale RIGHT now or they have been pulled from the market. So, even if you wanted to buy them – good luck.

They told me that THIS is how much they believe in the impact that PPC Classroom can have on
your life – they KNOW you’re going to stick around, so they’ll put their necks on the line…

Check out the additional bonuses, it really down right shocked me…

Not really sure how you’re going to pass this up!

Last chance to grab these bonuses. After Saturday Oct. 18th, 2008, they will be all gone!

Check out PPCClassroom. I signed up the first day and will be getting those bonuses. Can’t wait.

After the two weeks of prelaunch videos, PPC Classroom is now finally live and taking orders. There were issues yesterday, the 14th. When I tried to order, it failed. It turned out they had website and order taking issues.

By 9PM, I was able to complete my order. I’m now a student!

So far, I can see that the course has good value; they are spread over 9 modules. They range from market research, to how to best gather keywords, to finally going live with your campaign.

If you are quick, you will also pickup over $1000+ worth of bonus from PPC Classroom. They give you a pack of 6 landing page templates. A tool that generates the Google Adword Ad. And a few others.

You can also optin for the Niche Detective monthly. When I signed in last night, the basis of that is available, but the content is not live yet… Hopefully it should soon.

You can also pickup the free PPCClassroom live event in California later this year. The cost is a refundable $99 deposit.

In the past, I have reservations about PPC; given that people has loss their shirts to the now famous Goolge Slap. But having tried SEO and social marketing, I’m giving this PPC a try. It’s one of the fastest and most targeted ways of getting traffic to your site.

Sure, you could do article marketing and do it for free. But it takes time and effort! And can you write?

On the other hand, you can start a PPC campaign and within 10 to 15 minutes have traffic coming in. Of course, this assumes that you have done the proper keyword traffic research before hand.

Anyways, go check out the page and decide if this is for you.
