Forget Affiliate Marketing: Earn 100% as a Reseller
OK, I don’t really mean that you should forget affiliate marketing forever and always. That would be bad.
I do however think you should consider yet another way to make money online that doesn’t require creating your own product - reselling.
Reselling consists of buying the resale rights to a product, then selling - or reselling - that product as a merchant. One of the biggest advantages to reselling is that as a reseller, you earn 100% of each sale you make. Read more

Weekly Recap: Twisted in Toronto
Well, just one more sleep until I’ll be on my way back Home Sweet Home and I’m thrilled.
While it’s wonderful to visit with friends and family here in Ontario, I can hardly wait to see my cat, my ‘western’ friends and my precious Desktop.
Here at my Mom’s place, I work from my laptop which is perched on an end table in the living room while sitting on a chair which is slightly askew to the table.
Working hunched over and twisted like a pretzel is hard on the old bod, which explains why I’ve barely blogged at all this week.
Fortunately, this week’s guest bloggers, Alexander Alaric and Malcolm Sheppard made excellent contributions.
If you too took a break from the web last week, here are the posts that have been made since my recap from Huntsville on May 28th:
- How to Connect with Influential People on Facebook
- Affiliates Can Make More Money with Amazon Unbox Video™ Referals in June
- Joint Ventures: An Ill-Conceived Proposal
- Five Tips to Make Your Blog More Sociable
- $50 Investment Increases Sales by 500%
‘Til next time, Blog and Prosper!

Amazon announced today that they’ve increased commissions on Amazon Unbox Video™ downloads. For the month of June 2008 only, associates (affiliates) can earn 20% referral fees on Unbox Video™ downloads, which doubles the amount you’d normally make on these products.

Joint Ventures: An Ill-Conceived Proposal
Here’s a joint venture proposal that was sent to an email address that I use strictly for my registered domains. As you read through it, you will no doubt note that the author neglected to do some very basic research prior to sending the proposal.
Moreover, I include it here in case you receive something similar and are tempted to give it more attention than a quick click of your Delete button.

I checked out your site a few days ago and would like to after you a joint venture which is guaranteed to increase YOUR sales with no effort or investment from you.

I run a free service called the “XYZ Affiliate Marketer Newsletter”.

NPT Weekly Recap from Huntsville, Ontario
Greetings from just outside beautiful Huntsville, Ontario.

Feedburner FeedCount: Be Patient
The first time I installed Feedburner’s FeedCount* on this blog (after integrating the Feedburner feed with Aweber) I uninstalled it almost immediately after seeing that it showed only a few hundred subscribers.
Ugh!
How embarrassing!
Especially considering that there are places on the site where I tout the fact that NPT has tens of thousands of readers.
I mentioned this ‘problem’ to Anik Singal (my partner in BlogClassroom) and he simply told me to “give it a day to resolve“.
So, although the FeedCount chiclet showed ZERO subscribers when I installed it at Sage-Hearts (see screen capture above left), I was a little more patient and left it alone until the next day.
Sure enough, when I checked it the next morning, FeedCount was showing 100K subscribers (see graphic below).
Woohoo!
*FeedCount is a dynamic graphic that displays your feed’s current circulation, as calculated by FeedBurner. You may customize its color scheme to match your site and choose between either an animated or static appearance.
To put the Feedburner FeedCount on your blog, log in to your Feedburner account, go to ‘My Feeds’ and choose the feed that you want to Publicize. Then activate the FeedCount service (found in the left-side navigation), choose your colors, then copy and paste the code where you want the graphic to appear on your blog.
The primary benefit to using the FeedCount chiclet on your blog is to increase visitor awareness of the popularity of your blog (social proof) and thereby increase the likelihood that they will also subscribe to your feed.
Then wait for it!!

Where’d You Get that Graphic?
“Hmmm…” thinks I when I saw the site. “This has a very familiar look and feel”.
“Hmmm…” I thought again as I saw Betty’s list of blog categories in the first navigation bar along the right side of the page. OK, so it’s not unusual for category names to be similar across same-topic sites. For instance, almost every Internet dating blog is going to have relatively generic categories named Dating Tips and Internet Dating.
However, one not-so-generic category name that Betty’s blog shared with mine struck me as way beyond coincidental.
Sure enough, when I searched the wording on Google, my site showed up second in the natural listings (after a site that included the phrase within the body text of an article) and Betty’s showed up in 9th place for the same term.
“Hmmm… I best investigate a little more” I concluded and wouldn’t you know it… smack dab in the middle of her newsletter signup form there was a graphic that I created.
Sheesh.
I responded to Betty and explained that because NPT guest bloggers link out to their own sites, I couldn’t possibly link out to hers what with there being STOLEN CONTENT on her site. (OK, I didn’t say STOLEN CONTENT in my response to her… and although she didn’t respond to my email, she has changed her site considerably since then — so, message obviously received.)
Folks, copyright infringement is a serious matter and many webmasters and companies aren’t quite as forgiving when they find their work displayed without approval on other sites. You could easily get slapped with a fine or lawsuit and, if the aggrieved party is angry enough, they could easily run a campaign that damages your reputation to the extent that it’s not worth promoting your site anymore.
Using someone else’s work without their permission or purchasing the rights is just not worth the risk.
So, as far as graphic images go, I …
- Make my own graphics using Paint Shop Pro - available through Corel and which is considerably less expensive than PhotoShop.
- Use pictures taken with my Sony digital camera (example on Rosology).
- Use images of products supplied by merchants (example on Roamsters).
- Buy photo CD’s from ComstockComplete.com. (The little guy on the Sage-Hearts.com homepage and each of the photos shown at the top-left hand corner of every dating category.)
- Have an iStockPhoto.com account. (The car image here on Rosology)
- Have a Clipart.com subscription. (Examples all over NPT, but here’s one of which I’m especially fond.
ClipArt.com is a division of Jupiterimages.com and the yearly subscription fee includes a subscription to the Graphics.com newsletter and a magazine subscription to Dynamic Graphics magazine.
Clipart.com offers a HUGE variety of art that you can put on your site. Everything from clip art, web graphics, line drawings, and photos to fonts, frames and sound clips. What you won’t get at ClipArt.com are animated graphics and flash animation images. You’ll find those at AnimationFactory.com.
Another downside to ClipArt.com is that many of the photo objects offered are from bygone eras. For example, if you want a picture of a radio, you’re likely to find something that looks like the graphic shown here to the left. So if you need more than what ClipArt.com offers, then check out Photos.com for royalty-free photos by subscription.
At $499.95, a Photos.com subscription is decidedly more expensive than ClipArt.com’s. However, if you are running a site in a very specific niche, there’s nothing to stop you from getting a 1-month subscription and you’ll have access to over 360,000 professional quality stock photos and photo objects, from which you can download up to 250 photos per day.
Here is a list of JupiterImages’ sites and services:
- AnimationFactory.com
- Clipart.com
- ClipartConnection.com
- ComstockComplete.com
- Photos.com
- Stockxpert.com
In summary, there are so many good options available for getting graphic images on the cheap, that there is no need to ever risk your online business reputation - or your chances of becoming an NPT guest blogger.

Spam: SOMEONE YOU CALL YOUR FRIEND, WANTS YOU DEAD.
Boy oh boy, these spammer folks ARE getting creative. Posted below is perhaps the sickest one I’ve seen yet and I just pray that there aren’t good people out there who are feeling scared or responding to this nonsensical garbage - because it is just that, complete and utter nonsense. If you read it through, it actually seems quite hilarious.
Subject [Suspected Spam] SOMEONE YOU CALL YOUR FRIEND, WANTS YOU DEAD.
From ANTHONIO BENITO
Date Saturday, May 24, 2008 1:34 pmSOMEONE YOU CALL YOUR FRIEND, WANTS YOU DEAD.
I felt very sorry and bad for you, that your life is going to end like this if you don’t comply, i was paid to eliminate you and I have to do it within10 days. Someone you call your friend wants you dead by all means, and the person havespent a lot of money on this, the person also came to us and told us that he wants you dead and he provided us your names, photograph and other necessary information we needed about you.
If you are in doubt with this I will send you your name and where you are residing in my next mail. Meanwhile, I have sent my boys to track you down and they have carried out the necessary investigation needed for the operation, but I ordered them to stop for a while and not to strike immediately because I just felt something goodand sympathetic about you. I decided to contact you first and know why somebody will want you dead by all means. Right now my men are monitoring you, their eyesare on you, and even the place you think is safer for you to hide might not be. Now do you want to LIVE OR DIE? It is up to you. Get back to me now if you areready to enter deal with me, I mean life trade, who knows, and I might just spear your life, $12,000 is all you need to spend.
You will first of all pay $4,000 then I will send the tape of the person that want you dead to you and when the tape gets to you, you will pay the remaining $8,000. If you are not ready for my help, then I will have no choice but to carry on the assignment after all I have already being paid before now.
Warning: Do not think of contacting the police or even tell anyone because Iwill extend it to any member of your family since you are aware that somebodywant you dead, and the person knows some members of your family as well. For your own good I will advise you not to go out once is 7pm until I make out time to see you and give you the tape of my discussion with the person who want you dead then you can use it to take any legal action.
Good luck as I await your reply to this e-mail contact: final.bulletpointservice@gmail.com
Mr.Anthonio Benito.
