If you are not a member yet, click here to register now
Today, as a member of my free affiliate marketing training you are going to learn how to get your affiliate links right inside the member area.
Why do you need an affiliate link?
It’s simple, we need an affiliate link to make money. Whenever someone click on your affiliate link and buy the Affiliate Profit Mentor, you will make a commission. Let’s call this the “two minute link getting” technique.
Don’t worry, it’s nothing complicated. All you need to do is to follow these simple steps. If your already joined an affiliate program before, this will be nothing groundbreaking, but many people are just getting started and need to know the basics.
Before we start, I am sure you noticed that this post isn’t password protected. It’s just that I wanted to give to my new visitors a chance to join this free affiliate marketing training.
It’s easy to start, if you are not a member yet, just click on this link (Affiliate Marketing Training), and join right now, because all the future posts and super affiliate tactics and tricks will only be open to my affiliates.
Let’s start now.
Step 1: Go straigth to the login page at: (for registered member, click here to log in, if you are not registered, click here to join)
Once you are there, you will see this (see picture below):
All you need to do is to add your Affiliate ID and your password in the box, and click login.

You are done!
Step 2: Getting your affiliate link
Now, you are in the affiliate area.
There are many things that you can do, but all you need to do right now is to do these two things:
1. Get your affiliate link
You will copy and paste this link (see image below, your link will be right there, in the red circle – if we can call it a circle…) in a note pad file.
Getting Your Affiliate Link
2. Keep your desktop Organized
Beware, make sure that you know where you save your links and all the other tools you need for your business. For this, we are going to create 3 folders:
Here is what to do:
1. If you didn’t do this yet Create a new folder (on your desktop or in your documents) and call it: “Online Business 09″. Everything related to your online business should go in this folder.
2. In this folder, create a new folder and call it: “Affiliate Promotion”
3. In the Affiliate Promotion folder, create a new folder and call it: “Affiliate Profit Mentor” (APM)
Now, you should have three folders.
4. In the “Affiliate Profit Mentor” folder, create a new text file, and call it: Important Links
Make sure you write down the following: the login page URL, your password and also your ID (you received all those in the welcome email when you registered).
Lastly, add your affiliate link: just write: “Main Affiliate Link”, and paste your affiliate link in the notepad.
That’s it, In the next lesson, I will show you how to create your blog in less than 12 minutes. Now that you have your affiliate link, you need to create a blog to presell the Affiliate Profit Mentor (help your visitors to click on your link) Most people get this wrong, and that’s why most affiliates are struggling, so stay tuned.
Your Homeworks:
1. Grab your affiliate link
2. Organize your desktop

I was just looking for information about this when I stumbled on your blog post. I’m only visiting to say that I truly liked what you said, it’s really well written and this is great for beginners. Are you considering blogging more on this? It looks like there’s more depth here for later posts.
Thanks

How would you cloak your affiliate links if you don’t have a website so that your affiliate commission don’t get high jacked or stolen? Thank you in advance sir. James

Hi
@ JP, I’ll write more blog posts and tutorials for affiliate beginners, don’t worry about that.
@ James, in the next lessons, I show you how to create your blog (very good if you don’t have a site) and adding your affiliate link.
As for people hijacking your affiliate commissions, it happens sometimes (only experienced affiliates know how to do this).
It only happens in the ‘make money online’ niche though.
To prevent this, your best bet is to give a BONUS for people who buy through your link.
By the way, this will also help you increase your sales (and you can see how I do this in the commission avalanche ebook, I give an example of my high converting bonuses page).
All the best,
Franck

hi am a beginner at this.so do i set up 3 seperate folders or 1 folder with 3 seprate files.how do i set up a text file in my folder

Hi Phil,
Phil, don’t make this complicated, just take a breath and follow the step by step instructions.
You need to create a folder, and then, INSIDE this folder, create the other and so on.
As for setting up a new text file, with vista you just do a right click and that’s it. On the other hand, with XP you need to open a new notepad and save it into your folder.
Vista made this easy.
Let me know if you have more questions

Hey Phil,
During this free affiliate marketing training, you are promoting the affiliate profit mentor website as an affiliate.
I already found the niche for you.
If you want to promote your own product in your own niche, you need to follow the videos in the APM members private area, and then, read the instruction pdfs.
Let me know if you need anything Phil, just contact me from inside the APM member area and I’ll get back to you.
