I am not a net marketer. I have never taken a cut from anything e-book related I found a RARE piece of good help. (disclosure and all.)
However, I will continue to send any new person to James Martell and tell em to get the book and read it and put their site up before I will consider talking to them (my offline friends).
Anytime you get any type of book it is important to boil it down to the crucial few points.
From Martell:
Build content.
Get Links.
Get affiliates/adsense
Start your next project while still getting more content for the other and building more links.
Continue the cycle yourself or out source.
Gotta tell you, I do not know what is wrong with that method. One section of my company still does that in close to the same way. Has before Martell and will in the future.
Could I improve his system? Yep. Could I provide live examples and a financial statement that would dwarf his? Yes.
That, however, does not mean what he does is any less valuable.
The reason I have defended him in the past and will continue to (without a cut of cash, mind you) is because his emphasis is on the 20% of what makes most of your profits. Building content.
What is interesting is that you will rarely know what creates a banned site. Heck, I put one up in january for fun personally. It was outside of what I do within my company. Just a hobby I had. A blog and a damn good one. Yet, for some reason Yahoo yanked it out of the index. It was clean with no monetization methods, no weird links. Nothing. Just other bloggers linked in. Oh well.
And that is the it. Engines are not moral gods. You will be, if you start playing big in this game, slapped by them at some point in time. I know a guy that moved some pages and had got smacked out because of that. Dang shame as a searcher his site was great for information and research.
Point I am making is that there is only one way you will know what works: Your own stats. Everything else is second hand or worse.

Jscott,
Are you using niche power ads.
How much more $$ are the clicks worth
compared to adsense?
Who pays you, when someone clicks through.
I don't see any examples of ads for
cj.com products, or other affiliate
networks. Are you using nichepowerads
for these types of products.
How is it working for you?
Thanks,
Jeremy |

Look closer at the sales page. (This might also be helpful when trying to dissect what is actually going on in ANY sales letter or strategy).
The program is a container that makes set-up easier. Think of it as a structure for affiliate links that clone the adsense structure.
In some industries the affiliate earnings outpace adsense. In others they are lower. Thus the need for testing. This is made easier if you use server side includes for any ad placement block across all of your pages or sites. This allows you to pop in whatever code you want within a few minutes.
Again, your personal testing and stats are the true numbers. No one elses has your exact make-up.
