1. How to concentrate on stuff that works
=========================================

If you're new to affiliate marketing, it's easy to be confused by all the options and conflicting advice.

Someone who simplifies things for affiliates is Dan Ho.

He's found and refined a system that has worked extremely well for him for years. Now he takes affiliates who have been unsuccessful and teaches them how to start earning commissions quickly.

The essence of Dan's system is submitting articles to a few carefully selected article directories. People click on links in those articles and arrive at specially crafted presell pages. Those presell pages promote products that pay recurring commissions.

Dan specializes in promoting products that pay lifetime commissions - where the customer is "yours" for life. After you've made your first sale, you earn a commission every time that customer buys.

A huge advantage of Dan's system is that there's so much you DON'T have to learn.

You DON'T have to build large web sites, write newsletters, run forums, create videos, have a mailing list, write autoresponder series, etc., etc.

Dan really does keep things VERY simple.

I'm not claiming that Dan's way is the best way to do affiliate marketing. I prefer much more time-consuming methods such as newsletter publishing, building large niche sites, and having your own product and your own affiliates.

But Dan's system is simple and fast. It's easy to follow. It works.

Here's proof.

One of the companies that Dan promotes is Aquasana. It's vice-president, Houston Tomasz, is REALLY enthusiastic about Dan's training. Houston says...

"I am absolutely amazed at your ability to take rookie affiliate marketers from knowing very little about the Internet, and almost nothing about affiliate marketing to making commissions within a couple of weeks. Normally, we see less than 10% of our affiliates ever make a sale. Your students are closer to 80%, and I'm sure that is going to go up as you continue to train them. I only wish you had started this 10 years ago. Keep up the great work, and as always, please let us know if there is anything we can do to help you and your students be more successful with our products."

If what you're doing isn't working very well, have a close look at Dan's system and the service he provides for affiliates.

Dan has succeeded by narrowing his focus and concentrating on a system that works. He'll show you how to do that, too.

3. Affiliate turns his life around
==================================

A few years ago, affiliate John Gibb thought he was on top of the world.

He was using fairly "black hat" techniques to generate $300+ daily.

Then his system failed. His earnings plummeted to near zero. His fiancee left him. He ended up in debt, living in a rusty old caravan.

In this article, John describes how he turned his life around, with Dan Ho's help...
