You CAN Make Money "As Seen On TV" with Advertising Profits!

That's right ... I said YES !!! ... YOU CAN MAKE MONEY and Earn ADVERTISING PROFITS with Affiliate Marketing.

You've all seen those late night or early morning infomercials and that little entrepreneur in all of us has been curious about them at one time or another, right? We all know that if these programs actually worked, we'd all be doing them. It's only natural. After all, who wouldn't want to 'get rich quick' especially if we didn't have to do anything to get that money?

But, wait ... Now, I'm going to contradict myself because this is a review of get rich quick advertising for profits schemes that are "As Seen On TV" (in general). I have yet to come across a legitimate advertising for profits program off the television.

So, what am I talking about then ???

Business Card Marketing Envelopes ... the EASY way to advertise! Click the envelope to find out more!

This review of Advertising for Profits is on the programs that I have heard complaints on, in general. The truth is ... YES, you can actually make advertising profits with affiliate marketing on your website. However, the other truth is ... you (most likely) will not be able to make money with the typical scam programs that I have heard about and seen from the "As Seen On TV" infomercials.

If you really want to make money, you're not going to do it by paying someone else to have a duplicate of their website and then you end up doing all the advertising. Bear with me while I go into greater detail on everything. It's going to be a long article.

See, the problem here is ... in reality, YOU are the one that is doing the work for THEM, even though you don't realize it. They are the ones profiting from your advertising efforts from the website that you buy from them.

If you want to be successful with advertising profits or affiliate marketing (like you're promised on those "As Seen On TV" infomercials), you need to bypass their products and services and go directly to the source. Cut out the middle man. You'll need to do some actual things for yourself. Here is the absolute rundown on what you need to do to succeed at Advertising Profits or Affiliate Marketing - just like what is advertised on the infomercials but - even better - because I'm giving you the (FREE) secrets to do it directly for yourself. You will not be doing work for anyone else to reap the benefits of your advertising efforts.

Just for clarification, though, before I go any further. Some of you still may not know exactly what I'm talking about even now. So, I'll back up and explain what affiliate marketing actually means. Affiliate Marketing is when you put advertisements on your website for money. Each advertiser (or company) that puts ads on your website, will pay you to display their information in the hopes that it will draw people away from your website to visit their website so that they can earn money from online sales.

To show you what advertisments can look like, I've placed some ads on this page. The first two ads that you'll see is for my own ad - for some cool business card marketing envelopes that will help you advertise your business easily. There is a banner ad and a text link.

The other ads, on this page, are through an affiliate program. The different types of ads will help to show you that there are differences between getting ads directly from a company, which can take you to a different page on the same website, or using an affiliate program that provides you with the ads (where you display links to many various companies through them).

You can either make the advertisements stand out or you can make them blend in, depending on your personal preferences and which ones seem to work best for you. You, also, have the choice to use text ads or image ads - or a combination of both. It doesn't matter. You can see the different styles that are available for websites throughout this page ... and you can pretty much use any color for their wording to help it blend in with your website. You can put them anywhere that you want as long as you follow certain guidelines set forth by the advertisers.

Ok, with that very basic background and an idea of exactly what affiliate marketing is now, here is where you will see the difference between the infomercials advertising for profits products and services and the way you can go about getting this set up for yourself ... legitimately and without having to pay someone else huge chunks of money for this information:

So, there you have it ... the 'As-Seen-On-TV' ads that I have (personally) seen and heard about for affiliate marketing appear to be scams because you have to buy their 'programs' at outrageous prices to get this information. But, YES ... if you have a website, you CAN earn money by advertising on your websites for profit - it is 100% legitimate and a nice supplemental income, if done in the correct way.

As a matter of fact, once your website gets large enough - or just good enough to get steady targeted traffic - and with lots of helpful information for your visitors on your specific topic, Affiliate Advertising may become a second choice of advertising. Once your website is large enough and more well-known, you may have actual companies contacting you directly to place their ads on your website. This is legitimate and it does happen. This is where the better money comes in. Once your website has high volume of naturally targeted traffic, your website will have the opportunity to earn even greater results for you. Of course, this will take quite a bit of work on your part to make your website well-known, but it will be well worth it, if you can make that happen. I recommend affiliate advertising for the smaller websites just starting out because it can bring in large companies that your website would not otherwise be able to earn money with.

My recommendation to anyone that has ever thought about buying a 'get rich quick' program like off of an infomercial on the tv or internet ... SAVE YOUR MONEY and EARN money the LEGITIMATE way. You don't need a program to help you earn money ... you just need knowledge. Browse through the internet for anything that will help you to learn how to optimize and monetize your website.

With time and effort you COULD be earning quite a bit from advertising profits on your own - WITHOUT having to pay someone else a residual fee for their services. Good luck - chasing 'The Dream' ... just be smart about it and do it the RIGHT way ... you will be MUCH better off in the long run!

"As Seen On TV" Informercial Curiosity (6/16/2011)

Ok, so it's early morning and I couldn't sleep. Anthony Morrison's infomercial on 'Advertising Profits from Home' was on again. I've wanted to review his product and give his business a fair review ... BUT ... this is how it went:

A couple issues, from the start ... first, it was NOT a human-operated number. You are calling an automated machine ... an automated calling machine with major flaws.

The first issue was that it would not accept my phone number - it kept wanting to add an extra number in that wasn't even in my phone number. I spent probably 5 minutes trying everything before I gave up and put in my cell phone number.

Throughout that whole issue, I tried the usual words for automated systems, like: help, customer service, agent, etc. It was to no avail. There was no one that was going to help me. I even tried to say 'Cancel' but it would not understand that ... so, I continued on.

The second issue was, it tried to (automatically) upgrade me for this ($39.95 the first time). I said NO and it went on this long spiel again. I said 'NO' again.

The third issue, that was the deal-breaker for me, was another 'offer' to upgrade. This one, I think it was $189.00. After the second upgrade, which I declined ... it told me I had actually accepted, so I hung up the phone right away and called my credit card company immediately to cancel the transaction - AND, my credit card. I didn't even finish the phone call to see what else I would be suckered into, but it was too late - they already had all of my information. You need that as the very first information or you don't proceed.

I have never dealt with an infomercial ordering system as confusing and messed up as this one was ... and I think I have most everything off the infomercials network. Anthony Morrison, if you are out there reading this ... I would LOVE to try your infomercial products ... at the $19.95 plus the $9.95 shipping and handling price ... BUT ... with your phone ordering system, there is no way I would consider going through the process again. It was just too sneaky - nor, would I (at this point), even feel comfortable giving you my credit card information for fear of recurring charges later on down the road.

So, I'm still not sure how the program works, but ... I'm guessing that if you have to sign up for all the other stuff, it must not work too well. There's always a ways for them to get your money. My recommendation on Anthony Morrison's advertising profits, as it is right now, would be to NOT try it ... but, this is just my experience with 'trying' to get his products. I can only imagine what a nightmare it could be if I'm having to deal with issues from the start.

MY ADVICE ... if you want to make advertising profits from home, get a REAL website - not a duplicate of anyone's website but your own individual website. We have all kinds of webites, ranging in price - these are all customized websites that come with customer service and tutorials. Some, you set it up with your unique content (whatever interests you - a hobby, a business, general information, etc) and some we set up for you. Once you have a website, we'll help get you set up with your own ads, if that's what you want to do.

Or, if you're not interested in building a website, you can buy an already completed website at Iowa-Host. You can contact them for details on what's currently available. Buying one of these sites, if any are of interest to you, would help you get started within 24 hours because they are already up and running. A title transfer is nothing more than getting payment and transferring ownership of the domain name and web hosting. I would recommend, if buying an already completed website, that you add more to the content and keep growing it continuously. The more uniquely original content you have on your website, the larger the website will grow, and the easier it will be for search engines to keep finding your website (and with more searches). Search engines LOVE new information and website content!
