    Hi Nick2007

    That was interesting. Did you stop because it was boring, and that was all? Could you tell me what you tried to do? Did you join a company, and promote their products using Google AdWords.. or did you find a product at Clickbank and did something to promote it?

    I would really be interested in your answers.

    Thanks

    Jens

    Well, I don't think my story will be useful for your ebook.
    I created a website on one of paid hosts and buy a domain. Then write the unique context, my site was about a pet shelter in my home city. Then I joined to 4 affiliat programs which sell different goods for pets. My site had 20-24 visitors daily. I understand 25 visits is nothing for a good marketing site.
    I made ads on free Internet boards, spoke about pets in animal forums and chat rooms. Try to get more backlinks to my site. I didn't spamming or buy traffic.
    Final.
    1. I've understood pets is my niche.
    2. You have to invest from 1000 USD to an Affiliate marketing business for a quick start. Of course, this would be better if you more, more money in this.

    I really make a living from Internet. And I can offer you better betting links than you've offered me. I make some money on boxing fights.

    I think your story is interesting, and I would really like a few of your thoughts. If you could please fill out the interview form on my blog, just click the link in my signature and you will find it.

    It will only take a few minutes.

    I just need your main points. I hope you have the time, and this goes for all the people at DP :)

    Thanks

    Jens

    I just tested the form, and it seems to be working now.

    Could you please try it again? It's important to me that the form works, or else I might get as much feedback for my ebook :)

    If it doesn't work, can you please tell me if you got an error message or what happened?

    This is the link to the form

    Thanks

    Jens

    That's weird. I haven't received any emails, so I guess it's not working.

    I can pm you instead, I am just wondering why the form is not working :confused:

    Thanks

    Could someone else also please test the form?

    I have done a few updates to it, and I really hope that it works now.

    You don't have to fill out anything other than test.

    I just need some feedback to see if the form actually works or not.

    I have tested it on my computer with both firefox and ie, and it seems that both works.

    This is the link to the form (just write dp test somewhere, and I will know if someone from this forum have did the test)

    Thanks

    Jens
