Why You Should Stop Promoting GDI


Tissa the Man

Tissa the Man

I need a break from all the CSS mistakes I did when re-writing a horribly done sales page (it consisted of 1,500+ lines of lame 90′s code. It now contains around 400 lines of code, and the graphics files are optimized by 50% as well) Phew!

I must admit, I can be slow sometimes. I had to join GDI two times before I found a sponsor who cared enough about me to want to help me get started. My sponsor told me how to promote GDI and had me subscribe to her newsletter. All of that was great, but I just didn’t have any success. Like, any at all. On top of already being frustrated, I was attacked by brutal savages in a forum when promoting GDI playing by the rules.

Okay, they were not that brutal.. and it was only one person who snarled at me.. but I was at that point psyched out and what happened next caught me by surprise: I burned out completely and stopped everyhing I was doing for about two months. This was a result of not having a clear aim and purpose, only jumping from one target to the next and trying to make money somewhere in-between.

When I recovered I slowly gained my interest in IM again. My GDI sponsor had helped with sending me traffic in the beginning, and I had a couple of active referrals in my downline, so it was not that bad. But, as I started promoting it again, it was right back to square one, with no results. Aargh! I tried ClixSense’s GDI promotion, which basically is just another useless link rotator, same kind of neat trick all the useless GDI Super-Uber-Ultra-Powerful Downline-builder teams use. You know those with websites from 2005′ish, that’s never been updated since, but newbies who got caught in their headlight roam the web desperately trying to score a referral. They fail and spend the rest of eternity haunting IM forums, moaning and whining about how much GDI sucks, but that is another story, one that I don’t feel like writing.

So, what to do? Promoting GDI sucks, because everybody already knows about it!

The solution is so simple, and many of the most successful GDI affiliates have used it as their main weapon for years now, but there are still a lot of clueless GDI newbies out there, and I used to be one of them until recently. So, what’s the secret sauce? It is painfully obvious really, but here goes:

Promote ACME People Search instead of GDI! People Search is free to join, and you will be adviced to go through a relatively simple 3 – step sign-up process, which includes signing up with → GDI ←. I am not sure about the conversion rate, however recruiting new referrals for ACME People Search is pretty easy. If 1 out of 10 of your People Search referrals sign up with GDI every week, that means 1 new GDI referral every week. Help and educate your GDI referrals. Some of them can become super-affiliates and earn a lot of money for you. Also, your referrals are only human, they can get frustrated just like you and me when nothing seems to work. Encourage them, give them some fresh tips and ideas, be a friend. It’s not just about the money, but helping others as well.

On a side note: I received a new GDI sign-up today, someone who went straight through the whole 3-step process at ACME People Search and then jumped into my GDI downline. I love people with that kind of positive attitude, she will receive a gift when I am done writing this.

Back to ACME People Search. See below what Tissa pays for your efforts:

If a People Search referral maintains step 1 for at least 30 days, Tissa pays you $5.

If the referral stays at step 2 for minimum 45 days, Tissa will pay you $10 more.

If your People Search referral maintains step 3 for at least 65 days, the boss will pay you another $15.

Yes, Tissa pays you up to $30 for every single referral. Do not expect all of your referrals to stay at step 3 (only the first month at step 3 is free, and includes 100 targeted leads), but the more you learn about SEO and PPC traffic, the more money you will earn with Tissa’s ACME People Search & GDI. Those two put together can give your affiliate income a sweet boost, and it is pretty newbie-friendly too. I am a newbie myself, and still learning, always learning.

Even though Tissa is considered a guru, he is not like the other gurus. He talks and walks like any normal guy with an average income, and he likes to help people like you and me. Tissa tells the truth when he says: How much money you can earn online depends on how much you desire it.

With my recent period of burning out still fresh in mind, I decided to try this article-thing. I wrote all of two articles. Any native English-speaking person who can write, can squeeze out perhaps 6 – 7 articles in an hour. Still being new with article writing, I spend on average 5-8 hours each article, but the more you write the more efficient you get. After finishing two articles, I submitted it at GoArticles and used Angelas Backlinks to build back-links, then pinged a few social websites. Only one of my articles mentioned ACME People Search and GDI. Google bumped it to the top three positions on the first page within three days (GoArticles is amazing for SERP), and after a little while I had 5 new sign-ups in my ACME People Search, one of whom signed up in my GDI downline as well.

That was with ONE article, submitted by a newbie. Imagine what you can do with 10 articles.. 20 articles… 50 articles! Write articles, submit it, build back-links and ping social websites, and when you put enough effort into this, you will see new referrals in your ACME People Search every day, and sooner or later you will get 5+ GDI sign-ups every week, which means $400 extra from GDI every month. Use some of that money on paid back-linking services and link juice, and spend at least $100 on a PPC campaign that you continue tweaking every couple of days to make sure it yields best possible results.

This is a rather slow process. Do not expect a major income boost in a week or two, but if you have read any of my previous articles, you already know about the Bum Marketing Method, with which you can start with absolutely nothing and build an income from there. Internet is a wonderful thing, isn’t it!

If you have not joined ACME People Search already, feel free to use my link below. Remember: ACME People Search can be 100% free of cost, you only have to pay for the GDI membership at only $10 per month. ACME People Search gives you multiple income streams with its search engine alone, which installs easily on your GDI domain.

Stop Daydreaming And Start Doing It!


I wanted to share a story about the honest and hard-working man Gary. Struggling to manage the down-payments on the house, Gary was desperate to find a way to make more money. On his way home from work, an ad board caught his attention, it said “Stop daydreaming and start doing it!”. With the adboard’s slogan still fresh in mind, Gary went online on his wife’s computer, visited the mighty Google and anxiously typed in the search query “How to make money online”. Among the search results, an interesting e-book caught his attention. Being a desperate customer, Gary immediately purchased the $98 e-book and started reading.

The e-book, written by some Internet Marketing guru using the oh so clever pen name “Rich B. Astard”, claimed that Gary would be making money in practically no time at all, as long as he followed the guru’s steps. A couple of weeks later, Gary has gotten nowhere. He didn’t even finish reading the e-book because it was overwhelming, with too much information too soon. Next he got busy downloading several hundred e-books on the same topic, and burned out.

6 Ways To Drive Traffic To Your Website


Free Traffic

Free TrafficTraffic is the lifeblood for your website, blog or affiliate links. Without traffic, nobody will find your product, and you will not make money with it. Fortunately, targeted traffic can be cheap or even free, and I’ve decided to put together a short list here, to explain some methods that works well for attracting traffic leads. Building up a continuous flow of free traffic usually takes longer than outsourcing the task, but you can save a lot of money, and the leads can convert just as well.

1. Traffic Exchange websites

Traffic Exchange services are sub-optimal for selling products, but can work quite well for building opt-in lists with an auto-responder, which could potentially make more money in the first place. You can offer a free e-course for the niche that you want to promote, then split the Read the rest of this entry

How to get a boost in Google


After reading about GoArticles in the Warrior Forum, I wanted to see if it was true that it can kick your links all the way up on the first page in Google. It actually did; An article I wrote and submitted to GoArticles, using highly competitive keywords, reached the #1 spot on the first page in Google after less than three days after I had submitted my article. It only lasted for a few days, but it was interesting none the less, and I want to show you how to do it.

You will be submitting to GoArticles, which is a PR 6 article directory. Everybody can submit their articles there and have it published immediately.

Follow these easy steps:

  1. Research a few different niches (i.e. pet training, weight loss).
  2. Decide which key words to use, i.e. “3 easy ways to outrun a stalker”.
  3. Write the article using 250-550 words. Make it catchy and easy to read.
  4. Add suitable affiliate links to a product or service, perhaps an e-book at ClickBank.
  5. Register a free user account and submit your article to GoArticles.

If you did everything right, your keywords (“3 easy ways to outrun a stalker”) could very well be on the first page in Google in the next few days.

Like I said, this is only a temporary solution. If you want long term results, build a website or establish a blog like this and post fresh and unique content to it. For now, try writing that article and submit it to GoArticles, then track your results and see what happens.
