Clearing A US Check In Singapore

June 20, 2008 By: Ivan Ong Category: Internet Marketing No Comments →

If you live in Singapore, you will know that the processing and admin charges to clear a US check is actually quite high. Dropping your check in the local bank check box will cost your around $10-$20 USD. Reason for the high admin fees is because there are 3 transactions that you have to pay a fee for. The local bank processing fee, the US bank processing fee and the wire transfer fees.

With such high charges, our profit margin readily reduces by quite a bit, especially if your check is in a small amount. I consulted a few of my Internet Marketing friends and they recommended me to deposit my Clickbank checks at Travelex Singapore. According to them, the admin charges to clear a US check from Travelex is only SGD$10, which equates to about only $7.40USD. You can definitely save some money just by simply depositing your check with Travelex.

If you need the address to Travelex, here you go;

Surprise From SpeedPPC.com

June 17, 2008 By: Ivan Ong Category: Affiliate Marketing 2 Comments →

Today i got a snail mail from Australia and it was from SpeedPPC. Inside the package was a black T-shirt with Speedppc logo imprinted on it. This is probably the first ever gift i ever got from promoting products online. This is Jay’s way of saying thanks to his affiliates for helping him promote SpeedPPC during launch week and he sends a T-shirt out to anyone who made a sale during launch week. Speedppc has been responsible for giving me high CTR and good quality score for my PPC campaigns and giving me a much higher ROI because i am essentially paying lesser per click for the same position that i was getting before. I am glad that i promoted SpeedPPC because not only do i get a 50% commission from the sale, i got a free license to Speedppc as well and now i got a nice T-shirt from them as well! :)

Writing Articles At Warp Speed

June 15, 2008 By: Ivan Ong Category: article marketing No Comments →

Here’s how i write article at warp speed in any niche that i am writing on. This is actually quite easy. I am able to churn out an article in about 8-10mins using this strategy.  Here’s what i do; i just go to youtube and watch a video on the particular niche that i am going to write about. After watching it, i would simply write a summary of what was shown on the video. Simple isn’t it? Next, with a help of a content generator tool like Wordflood 2.0, i would convert that one article into 2 more articles and submit it to Ezine Articles manually. These articles are usually accepted because afterall, i wrote them myself and its definitely 100% unique. :) Go try that out and tell me your results!

Article Marketing Tips 101

June 14, 2008 By: Ivan Ong Category: article marketing 4 Comments →

You probably have heard of what article marketing can do for you. You probably heard that article marketing can drive tons of targeted traffic and make you a lot of money. Do how many of you actually know what article marketing is and how you actually go about doing it the CORRECT way?

If you think article marketing is all about writing tons of articles with your affiliate link in your resource box and submit it to the article directories and you will be rich, then you are so dead wrong.

Writing articles is a tedious and boring process, so learn it right and do it correctly to avoid making mistakes that all newbies make, including myself. Here’s some tips that i have when you write your articles.

1) Do your keyword research before choosing a particular keyword to target. Go a Google search on the keyword with the “” bracket. If the number of searches that appears in Google is less than 10k, then you can target the keyword.

2) In your article, insert the keyword that you want to target about 3 times in the whole article. Input a link for the keyword that you target.

3) Insert a link in your article body. This will greatly improve your CTR! Trust me… I’m having an average of 20++% CTR with just this strategy alone.

4) Your articles should be about 350 words minimum. Even though the accepted level is 250 for ezine articles. However, you want to position yourself as the expert in the eyes of the readers. So you gotta provide quality content so that they will be tempted to click on your link to see what you have to offer.

5) This is dead important! Your author bio box. You definitely need to do this well! I have seen resource box that is Soooo badly written that i could not even bother to click on his link. Position yourself as the expect in your niche and that you are the men and savior to their problems!

Just keep writing them… They will pay off in due time and take some effort to write them out. In my next post, i will be blogging about how i write articles out in warp speed. Usually less then 10 mins for a 300-350 words article in ANY niche!

Motivation For Myself…

June 12, 2008 By: Ivan Ong Category: Motivation No Comments →

time to blog about motivation.. When you are in Internet Marketing, there are bound to have many down times when things don’t go as well as you predict. There are also times when you feel that the time put into building up your business does not equate to the income that you are generating. I’m also sure when there are times when you think of giving up. Same for me too.

Like just today, i looked at my current results and felt a little depressed. I’m wasn’t getting the results that i want. It just seems impossible to have a breakthrough in my income. I have an aim to achieve a monthly income of $10,000 during my 3 months school holiday. I’m only 20% there now and i do not have much time left before my holiday end and another semester of school begins.

However, i know that Internet marketing is definitely the instrument that can propel me to my dreams and to the lifestyle that i have wanted to live. I suppose patience is the keyword here. I just have to be patient and keep doing what i am doing. I know one day i will succeed and never ever have to work a day in my life for other people.

Down times are inevitable and it’s only nature for human to feel demoralise. Go away from the computer for one day, look at what the gurus or super affiliate are doing and take a break. But be sure to come back feeling even more fired up and work your way again towards your dreams.

This is more of a motivation post for myself and that’s was why i keep talking in terms of myself. But i hope in the process of trying to motivate myself, you could pick something up from this post and feel a little more motivated and fire up! :)

To our Internet Success!

Clickbank Affiliate Product Presell Landing Page

June 06, 2008 By: Ivan Ong Category: Affiliate Marketing 1 Comment →

Alright, so after choosing a profitable Clickbank product that you want to promote by looking at the rising trend of the product from Affiliate Elite, your next step would be to research the market to gather more information and eventually decide whether to build a presell page or a review page.

What you would normally do is to type in the most common keyword of the niche into Google and start looking at your competitors landing page and ad copy. Do you sometimes think that this is very time consuming and wish that there was a easier and faster process of researching your niche and looking at proven to work landing pages? Well, i would that Affiliate Elite has done a great job in reducing this time spend by more then 50%! ( 50% is only a rough estimation from me. ha )

In Affiliate Elite project no 4, all you have to do is to type in the Merchant ID and the software will go online and pull out all the websites that are promoting this products and instantly, within a matters of secs, bOOM!~ a whole list of affiliate appears together with the affiliate ID. That’s not all, even their website appears as well! So you can look at EVERY affiliate who are promoting the product, their landing page. You will know instantly whether a presell page do better or a review page do better by looking at what the majority of the affiliates are doing! There is no need to test whether your landing page will convert because all the work has been done for you! The poor affiliates have been spending so much time trying to test everything and see which converts the best. However we as Affiliate Elitees, gained an enormous amount of unfair advantage over those who do not have Affiliate Elite.

If you think that is not crazy enough to be letting you earn more money, there is a feature that’s even crazier. Just thinking about it sends me shivers down my spine. Affiliate Elites allows you to locate an Affiliate ID and it will analyze what the affiliate is currently promoting and the website that he used to promote the products. Imagine just being able to find a Super Affiliate ID and use Affiliate Elite to analyze the ID, you will be able to uncover ALL his profitable campaigns as well as landing page for you to learn and modify! Do you think this is crazy?

Affiliate Elite to me is a very scary tool and definitely a must have software if you are intending to make money through clickbank or paydotcom. And Brad Callen is probably crazy, it used to be $176 for the first month but he is letting you have FULL access to Affiliate Elite for only $4.95 for the first month.

Spend $4.95 to test trial Affiliate Elite to see if its worth the money. To me, this software covers for itself on the first day that i have used it.

Stay tuned to my next post where i will be talking about researching for keywords. Not only keywords, but PROFITABLE keywords that’s proven to work! Ha till then!

Understand And Own Yahoo Quality Score

June 04, 2008 By: Ivan Ong Category: Affiliate Marketing No Comments →

Quality score is a big deal with it comes to Pay per click marketing. Quality score can help you lower your bid price. Maximize ads exposure on the search engine.  We should all be aiming for a 5/5 quality score on Yahoo.

But what are the steps and precaution you need to take to ensure 5/5 quality score? This is one of my ads in my Yahoo account that i set it up yesterday.  Getting a 5/5 quality score is not as hard as it seems.  Here’s what i did:

1) I group my keywords tightly in an adgroup. Have no more then 50 keywords in an adgroup and they must all be closely related. For example, if i am promoting a golf ebook and my adgroup is golf swing. the keywords i have in my adgroup will definitely have to contain the word golf swing. Some of my keywords would be;

improve golf swing, how to improve my golf swing, types of golf swing etc. I know this is not the best method of doing up a campaign that super affiliate does. But i’m slowly moving towards that direction.

2) My ads will contain the word golf swing at least twice. Once in the headlines and one more in the ad text. It would be good if you could have one more in your destination URL. :)

3) My landing page will also have the keyword golf swing in it. I created a dynamic landing page that would be relevant to each keyword that the user searched. For example, if the visitor searched for how to improve my golf swing in yahoo and click on my ads, my landing page will be adjusted accordingly and would included the keyword how to improve my golf swing several times through the landing page.

Basically, in order to get 5/5 for your landing page, you have to connect these 3 factors together. Keywords to Ads to landing page. They must all be related and linked to each other. Unlike Google adwords, you do not need to have a real website to get slapped by them. Yahoo is more merciful and does not slap its clients with $5-$10 minimum bids just because they think your ads is not relevant.

Go sign up with Yahoo search marketing and so get some 5/5 quality score and make some money!

Anti 9 to 5

June 02, 2008 By: Ivan Ong Category: Motivation 3 Comments →

If you visit my blog frequently, you’ll see that i made a small change to my blog header graphics. Isn’t that picture cool and nice? haha

Yeah, that’s right. I’m a Anti 9-5 person and my dream is to never have to work for anyone in my life. I rather use MY own time to do MY own things for MYself.

If you say NO to 9-5 as well, leave a comment to support me in my Anti 9-5 campaigns! :)

By the way, i’m planning to do up a free report on my whole Clickbank process. I’ve been doing ok with Clickbank so far and had already broke the $100 day a few days back.  However, i still have to work doubly hard because my goal for this school holiday is actually to hit $1000 a day in profits. I’m only 10% now. Long way more to go!

Niche Domination Or Niche Diversification?

June 01, 2008 By: Ivan Ong Category: Affiliate Marketing 1 Comment →

I suppose this is a question that many people are confused about. Would you rather create 1 campaign that earn $5,000 a month of 100 campaigns that earn $50 a month each?

Both has its pros and cons. In niche domination, you have to be very familiar with the topic so provide really good quality content for your readers and subscriber. Position yourself as the expert in this niche and you’ll make big money online.

For niche diversification, what you have to do is just to take a small slice of the market pie. All you have to do is to know a little about the niche and provide a little content for your readers. You do not have to spend so much time researching and reading up the particular topic. You do not need to be an expert. Just know enough.

Throughout my journey in Affiliate Marketing and reading up countless ebooks about Affiliate Marketing. I have used niche diversification as my main strategy. I would locate up a profitable product on Clickbank, do some research on the particular product and throw up a mini site to the product and quickly start my PPC campaigns on the niche. I have made some nice money using this method.

However, after today onwards, i have decided to change my strategy towards Niche Domination. Not entirely just focusing on one niche. But i will be choosing between 4-5 niche and focus completely on it. Focusing on one niche at a time and moving on only when i have dominate the niche market.

Why am i making such a drastic change to my strategy that has worked well for me? The reason is because of this guy call Tim Godfrey. He recently released a course on profiting from Clickbank. This guy is consistently making $1000 every day on Clickbank.

In his blueprint, he pin-pointed exactly the strategy i was using and explained that this kind of strategy was doomed to failed. In some niche, all i did was just do a iframe on my affiliate link to the merchant website. Tim said this strategy was not building my business. I’m actually building the Merchant’s business for him. What a fool i am. I was spending money driving traffic helping him to build his business. No doubt it will earn you some affiliate commission. But that’s not the point. I was not looking far. I was not building a business to last. I was only trying to make money online.

In his blueprint, he suggested a strategy of how you should be building your business and explained the rationale behind every step of his marketing process. After reading his course, i finally understood why he was able to make a 4 figure income DAILY! No doubt it takes some hard work and effort on your part. But nobody said building a online business was easy.

He completely changed my mindset towards Affiliate Marketing and made me see things from a different point of view. In his product headline, this was what he said;

WARNING: Abandon Everything You Thought You Knew About Profiting With Clickbank!!

Before i read Tim’s course, i was thinking yeah right, you must be another marketer with a big list and going to bull shit to me about making big bucks online. But after i read the course, i saw the headline again and thought to myself, “How True!”
