1. How to recruit affiliates and super affiliates
=================================================
Every now and again on our affiliate forum we see a plaintive plea (or spam) from a desperate affiliate merchant who wants to know how to recruit affiliates.
So I’ve written a couple of articles describing a variety of techniques affiliate merchants use.
Whatever level you’re at, I think you’ll find these articles useful.
The article on recruiting super affiliates includes a technique I saw for the first time only a few days ago.

2. Insider’s tip on John Reese
==============================
Here’s a quick insider’s tip, which anyone who has taken my advice and gets the Reese Report will already know about…
John Reese, well known for his million-dollar sales day, his VRE (virtual real estate), and a range of other online businesses, has really BIG plans for 2007.
I can’t tell you what John has planned. My lips are sealed.
When you subscribe to his newsletter, you’ll get access to all his new stuff and learn about his new plans when they’re announced – at no extra charge.
I’m a subscriber and you should be, too.
In the January issue alone, there were nine pages of detailed tips on how to create cash-producing email lists, and ways to maximize your list profits. In every issue, there’s always at least one item which I discuss with my Special Projects Manager, Jay Stockwell. John uses his vast experience to focus on tips that improve your revenue.
I reckon his newsletter is a must-have in your marketing arsenal. It helps you concentrate on stuff that gets results.

3. 77 Ways to Get Traffic – the REAL link
=========================================
All readers of this newsletter get access to my free report, 77 Ways to Get Traffic (most of them are free).
Whoops! I goofed. I missed out the slash in the URL in the last newsletter. I’m very sorry about that. I’ve whipped my proof-reader thoroughly.
Here’s the correct link:

4. Google gets tough on AdSense competitors and Google bombers
==============================================================
Google has clamped down on ads which compete with AdSense. If you use ads on your site which look like AdSense ads, you need to know this.
Here’s a good explanation of the changes…

…and discussion on our affiliate forum…
Google gets tough on competing ads

In other Google news, Wikipedia is now using rel=nofollow on its external links. Spammers were placing links on Wikipedia to boost their PageRank. Now search engine spiders will stop following such links, so the spammers will seek new hunting grounds. If you have a legitimate link on Wikipedia, all I can say is bad luck.
Also, Google has announced it has created a new algorithm which weakens the impact of prank “Google bombs”. The White House, for example, no longer ranks No.1 for the phrase “miserable failure”.
How does this affect non-pranksters? Not much. When you link to one of your pages, you’re probably already using relevant phrases which are on the page you’re linking to. Just keep doing that.

Our bookkeeper began getting curious and asking questions about how Joanna and I were earning our living. He wanted know what he could do to get started in affiliate programs. So I wrote this 18-step report…

6. Thought for today: A real decision
=====================================
“A real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken a new action. If there’s no action, you haven’t truly decided.” – Tony Robbins.
All the best
