You will need a website before you can do anything. Signing up to earn money without one is pretty much impossible. Also I didn't manage to read most of your post as I can't understand text message speak.
A Big "HI" to everyone as this is my first post.......well i just signed up with CJ.......i'm a newbie and i dont even have a website........i saw the googlejunction ad in the newspaper and found out abt CJ.......actually googlejunction is a company which sells a CD with information as to how to make money on CJ........the CD costs RS 1200/- plus postal charges.......i ain't sure if their CD is really worth d money and if i would really be able to make money using it through CJ.........rather i trust that the experienced plublishers of CJ on digital point can give me some tips to start off..........please help 1. I do not have a website........do i really need one? 2. Can anyone tell me about google adwords? Do we have to pay for using google adwords? Is it risky for a newbie like me without a website to start using google adwords as i could lose money instead or earning any? 3. I was told by google junction people that i can make money by working for advertisers which want people to register for free. So i plan to send the link 2 my friends who will register for free and thus add to my bounty. Is this really possible? IF yes what do i have to do to send such links to my friends? Can i send them through e-mail itself?? Please help me out with my doubts. I know many of them are quite silly but you must knw that i am a complete neophyte at these things....... thanx sri. Guys i tried applying for being an affiliate with advertisers who just want people to fill a free registeration form and they pay some minimal amount for the same......but such advertisers are rejecting my application to their program......what could be the reason for this??........is it beacuse i haven't yet filled the tax-form-w8ben-4147 which CJ sends after we have registered with them........also i read somewhere in the forum that i shld not send this form unless i have atleast 25$ in my CJ account.......is this advice correct?.......i'm finding this work at home stuff really tough.......guyz please help me out with your expertise......thanx.........
Thanks for the updated post. First off you will lose a lot of cash using Adwords without really knowing about it. Its a quick way to burn money while you are testing.
There mad4 i hope you can read my entire post now without any difficulty as i have tried my best to remove any shortforms........i have signed up with CJ only beacuse of the fact that GoogleJunction claims that money can be made out of CJ even if you do not have a site......so i have signed up to see if this is possible.......if i start makin any money, i might go ahead and buy their CD which has more tricks to earn money through CJ without having a website...........IS THERE NO ONE IN THE FORUM WITHOUT A WEBSITE AND YET HAS SUCCESS STORY TO TELL??????
In theory you can make money without a website just by advertising direct links to the products that the merchants sell.
thanx for your reply mad4.......i'll take your advice and refrain from using google adwords without proper knowledge on it......i would though keep trying to make money through my method on CJ......if i'm successful i'll definately post about my success story........in the meantime if anyone of you have made money with the method i mentioned, please guide me aswell............thanx.
yes thats true but i guess these advertisers will not accept my request as i do not have a website.......some of these advertisers have a certain pre-requisite which if not met they will decline your request to join their ad campaign through CJ...........i tried to join only those advertisers who had LEADS aswell with their SELL......but two to which i applied today rejected me......i have mailed them to ask the reason for the same......i will get their reply by tomorrow i suppose.
You can place ads on newspapers, magazines with your affiliate link. Hope the readers will remember the crazy affiliate link, type the link, visit the affiliate site, and finally make a purchase - do I think this could be for real - NO!
LEarn more... keep studying and trying... if some good affiliate give you personal coaching by taking $2500... think its a good deal for you Jen
2500$!!!!.....i have yet to earn a single penny thorugh CJ......though i started just 2days back.... ....hearing your advice i feel i should now go buy the googlejunction cd.....it costs only 30$.....i converted from rupees to dollars for you.........or i might aswell wait for a few days and try my own stuff......if i get any success.....i'll go ahead and buy the cd or continue on my own......will post if i succeed......though i know i'm being really optimistic.....
sri0108, I have not read this book, so I can't say what is it's worth. No doubt many people are earning good amount through CJ and I am also earning some money through it. But it is not as easy as it appears. From your posts look you are new to affiliate marketing. First try to get some knowledege through different forums and blogs, before started doing affiliate marketing. Ashok
Dear Sri, Am from India. I was just like the same as you when i signed up with CJ. Dont you worry. You dont need to have a website to earn money with CJ. Dont get cheated by google junction ADs. It is not so easy to earn money as they claims. I tell you what, Make money with the combination of Commission Junction & Google. All you need to do is to buy Google-Junction eBook by paying Rs 1500. Then you have to join Commission Junction (CJ.Com) affiliate program; then select few program to promote; join Google Adwords and write few simple ad copy; earn 1000's each day. very simple, anyone can do it. > No website is required > No experience is required > No more investment is required > No customer supports need to be handled. Well, this is another avatar of opportunity scam. The folk at Icashline.com (their program name is Google junction) is totally misleading peoples by providing wrong details. They have posted some scanned copies of checks they have received. I'm NOT telling that those checks are fake... it's real check (cheque) though it can be faked. I'm not even telling that those strategies don't work. What I'm telling you is, they are totally misleading the people who are looking to earn some money on the internet! Let's see how this stuff works. You buy Google-Junction eBook by paying small fee of $22. This eBook will explain you how to make money by promoting commission junction provided affiliate program via Google Adwords. If you have little knowledge of eCommerce you don't have to spend money on this concept. Let me tell you some truth. In order to be accepted by Commission Junction - You need a website hosted on top level domain name. (IE Blogger.com, NOT myblog.blogger.com) Your website must be well designed and should have quality content/information (of course website is not must if you run a quality e Newsletter) but there is no possibility of having a Newsletter without a website! Okay... let's assume that you have got a website and luckily approved by Commission Junction. Let's also assume that you have basic eCommerce knowledge (not surfing or browsing) Ecommerce means making financial transactions on the Internet. (All these stuffs are too lengthy and I don't have the patience to type all of then right now) Now here is the FUN By this time you have joined some affiliate program to promote (Affiliate means, selling someone's product for a commission) just like a agent, distributor, reseller. Of course some company will pay for getting people to signup for free offers or trial period etc. So that latter companies can send email promotion to buy products. According to Google Junction you only have to promote free products, trial etc. Now the question is how you'll get people? Advertising! Go to Google.com and create a Adverting account. Let's assume that you are going to promote eBay.com If you refer a free member to eBay.com you'll get paid $2-$4 depending on the location. Google allows keywords advertising (known as contextual adverting) where you'll pay Google for every clicks. The cost per click would be anywhere from 10 cents to 200 dollars Side Note: Every time you search something on Google.com you must have noticed some "Sponsored Result" on the right hand column. It means if you click on that link the advertiser will have to pay certain amount to Google. (Remembers it's Pay Per Click!) Now you have to analyze who would be interested to join eBay.com Let's assume that peoples who want to purchase second hand cell phone might be interested. So you would target the keyword "Second Hand Cell Phone". Daily around 1000 peoples search for second hand cell pone on Google. You'll advertise for this keyword. If you pay more to Google, your ad will be shown on the top of the search result and vice-versa. Let's assume you are willing to pay 10 cents per click. So if you get 100 clicks you'd pay 10 dollar to Google. Peoples who click on your ad would visit Ebay.com through your promotional links and around 10 peoples will join the site (it could be more or less) Since you have referred 10 members to eBay they will pay you 20 dollars (exact commission amount will vary) So you have made 10$ profit (IE Gross commission $20- less adverting cost $10) Remember, it's not as easy as I explained... there are too many things to handle. You may end up losing money too! This is how this concept works. I'm not telling that this concept doesn't work. I personally make more than $50 profit from the same concept... but it just doesn't work the way Google Junction claims! It's not that easy. You can go with this concept, if you are looking to start a online business and willing to spend huge money. So you need following- > a quality website on top level domain name. > a Credit card to pay adverting cost to Google > Willing to invest money and take risk. > Fast learn ability of eCommerce process. If you are looking for a JOB, then this is definitely not for you... you'll earn.... nothing... nada! Or if you just need a pocket money, well you can do this.. if you have to contact me for more doubts email me at . Good Luck Loving, Raju.
hey Raju thanks a lot for your reply. I think your reply has almost solved all my doubts. I did know that workin on CJ without a website isn't gonna help but i tried just to see how true googlejunction's claim was. Now i believe tht theirs is just a way to fool people and make money by giving u a hell lot of work to do and earn just tit-bits. Also asking friends to register for me is a lot embarassing!! So i'm gonna quit the idea of earning through CJ. As i don't think i have either the money or the effort of testing google adwords and see if i can earn money outta it. Also i found that it takes hell a lot of time to do all this stuff, which i was gonna take up as part time. If you know any other means of earning money through work@home jobs in India do lemme know. Thanks again for the information you provided. I'll suggest all newbie's on CJ to read your reply, which i guess will solve their doubts aswell about starting up.
Wow Raju, I heard you guys from India are kind and patient, but you beat them all. That was a great post, some of the greatest I've seen on this forum 'till now. After he will sign up with adwords I guess you should pass to lesson no2 and go for more advanced stuf. Why aren't you writing an ebook, I would like to buy a step by step affiliate marketing success, and from what I'm seeing in your post.. you won't be selling bllshts. Best regards for now, Dan
