Happy Monday!
It’s been a great week for online profits, and my 10 projects are all coming to a close this week! One of the biggest questions that I get is “how to build a list.” I believe everyone else gets it too because of the sheer number of “list building” launches that happen every year. I’m about to show you a FREE LIST BUILDING strategy that Jeff and I created three years ago. If you don’t know, I got my start with direct mail, and I became the rainman of direct mail. I would go around day and night with all kinds of tracking numbers in my head. It sounded like, “100,000 Pieces drop tomorrow.. $80,000 investment.. 1.5% response rate needed to break even.. Wopner on at 7..” Well, three years ago, Jeff Gardner and I held a weekend retreat that cost $5,995. During those three days, Jeff and I went step by step through our offline business model that generates millions every year.
One of the bonus sessions included a step by step affiliate blueprint that we use offline to generate a huge list and affiliate profits. That was NEVER meant to be released, and I have a bone to pick with Jeff Gardner. Should I get paid a “spokesmodel” fee for your blog? I know it’s FREE information now – but I never signed a release form!

Let me know if you think Jeff owes me a “speaking” fee.
Onwards and Upwards,

Hi there.
It’s Kit Elliott with SuperAffiliate.com. First, I hope your Memorial Day is going well. I scheduled this ahead of time so I could be outdoors spending it with my family. I had a lot of emails about last week’s post titled, “Turn Your Wordpress Blog into a Membership Site“, and several of you have picked up the Wordpress Plugin called DAP.

I also received this email for membership sites from Jimmy Brown. Jimmy is an expert at coming up with ideas for your membership site. He’ll even train you every month on how to create content for your membership site. His 12 month program is called Membernaire.
Once you find an idea for your membership site, there’s a specific process you can follow to get it launched.
Fortunately, there’s also a simple process that you can follow to get ideas for your membership site. If you’re unsure how to begin and are stuck for ideas, try out these tips. Your next membership site may not be that far away.
1. PERSONAL.
Begin by brainstorming your own life. Get personal! Creating your membership site is going to be much easier if you know a little bit about the market. That’s why it’s a great idea to start your ideas list with hobbies, interests and activities from your own life.
Write down everything that you and your family members are passionate about or interested in. This list could be a goldmine for your membership site.
2. PRODUCTS.
Ebook and video course creators have done a lot of niche market research in order to create their products. You can piggyback on this research specifically by keeping an eye on “product launches”.
For example, if you see a lot of products being produced on article marketing you can safely assume that a membership site on the same topic would do well. Subscribe to email lists in your potential market to watch for product launches and get ideas for your site.
3. PERUSE.
Persuse means “to examine in detail”. It also begins with “p” so it fits my outline. 
If you want a comprehensive list of existing electronic products that are selling well, Clickbank.com/marketplace is the place to go.
Search through the marketplace to find out what topics your market is interested in learning about. You’ll be able to find new market ideas, content to fill your site as well as affiliate offers to create some backend sales.
4. POPULARITY.
Visit Amazon.com’s best-seller list. Amazon is the top bookseller online so it makes sense to search their marketplace for membership site ideas. The bestseller lists in various categories will help you see what topics are popular. You can easily gather membership site ideas from these lists.
Hint: Go with the topics that are popular.
5. PULSE.
Forums are the pulse of your market. You can be sure that a market has members that would be willing to pay if there is an active forum dedicated to that topic. Track down some popular forums in your potential market and spend some time browsing through the topics.
See what the market is talking about. Pay close attention to the FAQs section and the threads that have a lot of activity. These are indicators of the kinds of topics which might serve as a topic for your next membership site.
6. PERIODICALS.
You gotta go to Magazines.com! This website is full of membership site ideas. If a market has a buying audience, there is probably a magazine out there dedicated to it. Magazines don’t get started without advertising dollars to back them up. If advertisers are paying to get to a market, it’s a safe bet that you can create a membership site for the same market. On Magazines.com you can search by category to find membership site ideas. I love this place!
7. PROBLEMS.
The final stop I want to mention is Yahoo groups. These free e-mail discussion lists cover a wide variety of topics. Subscribe to a few groups in your potential market to look for ideas. The benefit of using groups like these is that you’ll often be able to see problems in the market that aren’t currently being met by other products.
By going through these simple outlets you are sure to find a great idea for your next membership site.
BUT…
If you’d like a major shortcut, grab a membership at http://www.Membernaire.com. Once you join, I’ll send you a confidential report with my own “top 20″ specific ideas (with detailed explanations of each!) for hot membership site topics.
I’ve done all the research for you! Plus, I’ll show you how to setup a membership site in as little as 48 hours.

The MAY affiliate review sites have now been uploaded to your member’s area!
The topics for May are:
- Quit Smoking
- Website Flipping
If you have not signed up for Anthony Hull’s Review Site Templates, then, I would go ahead and sign up here: High Quality Review Site Templates.
Every month, you get two red hot, in demand review site templates that you can plug right in with your affiliate links and shortcut the whole process. I believe these sites are going for $13 each.
WOW! $13 – You can’t get professional designed website templates for $13 anything.. And if you follow this simple three step formula, you might see a commission when you wake up tomorrow.
Step 1: Do a simple keyword search. (notice I said search not research :0)) The rule of thumb is this.. You find one keyword that gets 1500+ searches per month, and you type that keyword phrase into Google and if there is less than 10,000 competing sites, you have a winner.
Step 2: Register that keyword as the domain name. Upload these templates to your domain name and plug your affiliate links in them.
Step 3: Get Page One of Google. How? Simple..
- Create a press release for free and make sure you link to your new domain name.
- Create an article for free and make sure you link to your new domain name.
- Create a docstoc for free and make sure you link to your new domain name.
- Bookmark, Submit to Directories, and Ping each of three URLs above.
That’s it. You do this 3 step process everyday and you will see a commission within 24 to 48 hours! I can’t guarantee that, but it works for me over and over and over again.
Also, if you want the unfair advantage. You can use Senuke to spin articles, submit articles, submit to directories and all the bookmarking places.
The service is called SENuke, and you can try it out for free for 7 days. I get credit for any signups so try it out for 7 days, and if it works for you like it does for me – then you’ll stick with it. If you don’t like it, you didn’t lose any money.
The key here is to build your commissions up to the point where you can hire a SEO company to do your SENUKE submissions. You can find them at RentaCoder for $10 per day.
To Your Success,
Kit Elliott
It’s very rare that I see something, and I get excited about a product. That’s probably why you rarely see me promoting anything. Too much of the time, the copy is full of promises and misleading or doesn’t live up to what it says. That’s been the case for 90% of the training materials and software that I have purchased in the past 5 years.
So the trick is to find the 10% that you will use.. that you will apply immediately.. and you will see your affiliate profits increase 100 fold. That software has been released..
It’s called: ImEye.

It’s the “beginning” of your affiliate journey. What I mean by that is – usually, affiliates get stuck wondering what products to promote.. what niche to pick.. where to begin..
And then, they jump in and after 2 weeks – they jump out because they didn’t rank in Google or didn’t see affiliate commission checks immediately.
IMeye is a different software that you can use to alleviate these “affiliate anxiety attacks” and help you pick winner after winner after winner.

FOR AFFILIATES ONLY:
First, this post is for affiliates only. If you are not making at least $1 selling other people’s products, then this is probably not for you. Yesterday, I spent an hour on a simple blueprint that I created after noticing certain trends with Google.. These trends are not being taught by the guru’s, but some of the software and tools are being used by the guru’s and super affiliates.
What is the trend? Continued Reading »
