Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
This year and every year, I wish for you all that I would wish for myself, including:
- Radiant health
- Peace with family, friends and all whom you encounter;
- Faith in yourself and your abilities;
- Growth in all areas of your life;
- Happiness in all you do.
I’d also like to thank you, whether you are an NPT newsletter subscriber, Super Affiliate Handbook reader or a NetProfitsToday.com visitor, for your support in 2005 and prior years.
It’s you who makes this project fun for me and the reason I do what I do.
Keep sending those questions, comments and suggestions in 2006, and together we’ll build big, prosperous affiliate businesses.
A BIG thanks also goes to my merchant partners whose efforts have given so many of us the opportunity to fire our bosses and work from home.
Of course, I always appreciate the special Christmas ‘treats’ too’! 
Last but certainly not least, I’d like to thank Joel, my virtual assistant, for his ongoing efforts and endless patience. Everyone should be so fortunate as to have a ‘Joel’ in their lives and businesses!
Happy New Year All!
Cheers,

Never look a _____ horse in the _____.
A couple of days ago I sent my NPT subscribers an invitation to join the 12 Week Intensive.
It’s a totally FREE course that will teach you absolutely everything you need to know to be- come an online superstar.
According to Harris, only the top online business experts are being permitted to teach during the Intensive.
Click here to find out who’s teaching at the 12 Week Intensive.
Now, you may have already taken advantage of this incredible offer and if so, congratulations, I look forward to sharing a glass of champagne with you on your private yacht in the Carribean this time next year.
If you haven’t signed up for the 12 Week Intensive yet .. maybe you forgot?
That’s ok. Luckily you still can.
Byt once the door closes on this, even I won’t be able to open it for you again.
You’ll be learning from some of the most respected internet moguls of this decade and we’re all dead serious about teaching you hard- nosed, time-tested tactics (no theory here) that will explode your business, no matter what size it is right now.
So, see you at the Intensive, and get off to a good start in 2006!
Enjoy and Cheers,

BeFree’s GREAT Service… NOT!
On my first attempt to logon to BeFree to get some affiliate links this morning, I was ‘locked out’, because “You or someone else has attempted to log on to the Partner Gateway with your username and an incorrect password the maximum number of times allowed. Your account will be locked for 3 hours”.
So, I sent them a little note to mention that something was amiss with the system.
Here was the auto-generated response:
“Your request has been submitted to an affiliate support representative. If you sent an inquiry to Be Free, allow an average of 5 business days to receive a response. ”
5 days! Christmas will be almost over in 5 flippin’ days.
Actually, the same thing happened a couple of weeks ago… and I’m STILL waiting for a response.
And they wonder why I don’t promote many of their merchants products…
Yikes!
P.S. Sometime later I received a ‘locked out’ notice by email later that contained an Unlock Key, but I’m still ticked about the posted 5-day response time to affiliate requests… that’s crazy!
Another good reason to partner with somewhat smaller, more responsive networks like ShareaSale, Performics and PartnerCentric, just to name a few!
Cheers,

Affiliate Summit Exhibit Hall Passes Sold Out
If you were planning to attend the Affiliate Summit , and haven’t purchased your tickets yet, you should know that I just read the following on Shawn Collin’s blog…
“The Affiliate Summit exhibit hall passes are all gone. And it looks like the full conference passes are going to be gone by Christmas.
As we saw last year, after tickets sold out, they went for 50% higher or more on eBay. Currently, you can register for $1,449 for full conference access, including speed networking, lunches, and all other networking and educational sessions.”
Get ‘em while you still can!

I’m in, are You in?
We’re coming down to the wire here!
Only 13 days and 14 spots are left for the Underground II early-bird discounts, bonuses and surprises.
You’ve got until December 31st (or until the final 14 seats are sold) to grab your seat in case you haven’t signed up yet for Yanik’s upcoming Underground Online Marketing Seminar II.
I’m in, are you in?
Last April, Yanik hosted the first ever “Underground Online Seminar” and it was totally SOLD-OUT 5 weeks before the event took place. (As a comparison most seminars are still trying to fill seats up until the very day of the event.)
From all the great feedback - he’s doing it again…
This time he’s bringing an *ALL-NEW* group of real-world Underground Internet successes breaking their code of silence. (I’m talking about 6-figure, 7-figure and even 8- figure Internet earners to step forward.) These are not the same usual suspects you see at other seminar.
If you get there before Yanik closes the doors on the special Early-Bird pricing you’ll lock in the biggest discount going (you save $500.00) and get exclusive special bonuses reserved just for Early-Bird attendees. In fact, some of the best ones are 2 chances at winning the brand new 2006 Mini Cooper and access to a closed-door private VIP networking Espionage ‘whodunit’ dinner on the first evening.
Remember it only takes one good idea to make this worth it for you. Don’t you think from a group of people selling $94M online, all the incredible attendees and VIP guests you might pick up one or two new ideas?
P.S. One more thing - if you need one more inducement, Yanik is going to doing a special teleseminar on the 4 biggest online trends for 2006 only for attendees signed up before December 31 (or whenever the final seats are taken). Last year he had to shut down the Early-Bird page before the deadline because all the seats were sold - that could happen again this time.
P.P.S. Here’s a zipped transcript of a recent teleseminar Yanik did with Willie Crawford in which they talk about the last Underground seminar and discuss who will be appearing at Underground II. I read it yesterday, and now I’m revved right up again for the event… learning new techniques, seeing my old friends, and making some new ones… hope that’ll be you!
Don’t forget that I’m including a bonus 2-hour consultation with yours truly when you reserve your seat through my link:

SBI! “Buy-1-Get-1 Free” is Back!
Every year Ken Evoy threatens never to hold an SBI! “Buy-1-Get-1 Free” event again.
He fibs.
Because the “Buy-1-Get-1 Free” event is on again and the deal is good until Midnight (Eastern?) December 25th, 2005.
If you’ve been sitting on the fence about starting your site, now’s the time to jump off and get going.
Besides, don’t those pointy fence posts hurt?
SBI! is a super solution for anyone who wants a total ecommerce web-site building package and who DOESN’T want to learn HTML.
Actually, even if you know HTML, SBI! has such a wide array of features, including excellent market research tools, that anyone will benefit from SBI!
SBI! has too many features to list here, so I highly recommend that you visit the SBI! site to see what’s in store for you.
Or, you can read more about SBI! here.
And remember, with the 2-for-1 deal, you can either keep both sites, or give one to a friend or family member as a truly lovely Christmas gift.
OK, get off that fence now, and make 2006 the year you start your Internet business with SBI!

Everyone who sent a card (AND included their email address on the card) is now eligible to win a copy of the IMC’s “Insider Secrets to Marketing Your Business on the Internet – Version 2005” and the softcover version of my book, “The Super Affiliate Handbook: How I Made $436,797 in One Year Selling Other People’s Stuff Online“.

Keep those cards and letters coming!
Cheers,

P.S. The party was great. Although it was supposed to be an afternoon open house from 1 until 5, I didn’t say goodnight to everyone until 10:30.
Here’s a pic of the ‘Hat Girls’; Linda, Ros and Barb …

Do You Know Rob Taylor?
Do you know Rob Taylor?
If you don’t, then you probably should, because he’s been quietly making a ton of money publishing information products for the past ten years.
Rob recently put together a “simple publishing system” for those ON A BUDGET - and those who don’t like to write!
As Rob says, “if you can use Microsoft Word (or its equivalent) and know how to use a web browser then you can easily create in-demand info-products in only a few hours”.
I KNOW that the latter pertains to at least a FEW of you!
Better yet, this is definitely not some copy-cat system you’ve seen doing the rounds.
This is a truly unique program that makes the chore of writing books, hiring ghostwriters or interviewing experts obsolete.
Rob’s system, which I stayed up late one night to watch in its entirety, consists of a series of thirteen online videos, comprising over two-hours of information, in which you’ll discover the “magic formula” he used to make over $400,000 from just ONE tongue-in-cheek project!
In the spirit of the season, I twisted Rob’s arm into giving you a $20 discount off his brand new Directory Profits course.
If you want to learn how to create hot selling niche information products on a budget, visit Rob’s “Directory Profits” site today.

eBay Flexible Destination Linking
Have you ever wondered how affiliates send traffic to specific pages on eBay?
Wonder no more!
First of all, visit eBay’s “Flexible Destination Tool” at http://affiliates.ebay.com/tools/linking/.
There you’ll see you need to enter 3 items.
First is your Commission Junction PID, which is the the number represented by XXXXXX in http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-XXXXXX-5463217.
Secondly, you need the URL for the page you want to send traffic to. So for example, I wanted to send visitors to the eBay Holiday Gift Guide at http://pages.ebay.com/holidaygiftguide/.
Then I enter text (in this case ‘eBay’s Holiday Gift Guide’ and the tool generates the code for me, with my affiliate link attached.
So, what do you want to sell?
iPod Nano’s? Prada Purses? UGG boots?
Whatever it is, get linked!
