Make your Site Sell - a day by day diary - Day 3
Free Downloads
Lets review what we have downloaded. (If you haven't downloaded it - yet do it now!)
1) 5 Pillar Read Me First -- this text document gives you a quick intro.
2) 5 Pillar Intro -- Key points about the 5 Pillar Program.
3) 5 Pillar Manual -- this is the "blueprint to success".
4) Extract from The Book (Submit your site to yahoo).Note - all the above are free to affiliates - the book itself costs 17 US$ but I want to review the free stuff first and only buy the book if I am convinced it will repay the investment many times over.
Trying to publicise this workshop I send an email to Allan Gardyne of AssociatePrograms.com as he had introduced me to the program in the first place. In my excitement and haste to get the info out I ommitted to include the URL. So a new page was born: for other mistakes to avoid and tips on things to do please see my WebMasters Tips page.
I have skimmed thru the documentation:
1) 5 Pillar Read Me First -- this text document gives you a quick intro.
Do read this first - and make, and keep, the promise to yourself.
2) 5 Pillar Intro -- Key points about the 5 Pillar Program
Lots of info on affiliate programs - including what to look out for in the small print.
3) 5 Pillar Manual -- this is the "blueprint to success"
This has lots of interesting info (over 200 pages) - and will require some time to read and implement.
4) Extract from The Book.
How to get listed in Yahoo - this I think I will try first. I have tried to get www.TamarEmbroideries.com listed a couple of times and failed so this should be a good test. I have managed to get the site into most other directories including two listings from miningco.com (now about.com):
crossstitch.about.com/msub34.htm
crossstitch.miningco.com/msub34.htm
needlepoint.miningco.com/msub13.htm
in addition to the make your site sell ebook the program now also includes make your knowledge sell, an ebook on how to create your own info product and make your price sell a web based program that will help you calculate your own ideal price.
That's it for day 3 - your comments are more than welcome: just send an email to Mike@amcho.com. This is supposed to be a workshop so if you are trying to get your web site to sell - then tell us about it and get some publicity and feedback. If you have joined the 5 Pillar Associate Program then please let us know what you are doing and how it is going. Otherwise Join now.
Day 1 - initial impressions, goal definition.
Day 2 - how the goal will be achieved
Day 3 - 5 pillars affiliate program documentation review.
Day 4 - MYSS Book extract - Submit to Yahoo.
