In the first section on Autopilot Clickbank Incomes, we laid out the metrics that many people use to calculate their Clickbank earnings, and how deceptive and false they can often be. While the first section was focused less on the practical side of Clickbank, and much more so on the theoretical side, this section is based around the practical systems and optimizations that any affiliate marketer can use to make sure that their Clickbank income stream becomes as optimized, and input-light as it possibly can. These tips won’t bring you to an autopilot income straight away, however they’re necessary steps for anyone looking to create one for the long term.
The 80/20 rule is fundamental to affiliate marketing optimization. When you’re creating an online business that scales to your lifestyle, you really need to make sure that your inputs aren’t always defining the output. The best way to make sure that your business is output-specific is by applying the 80/20 rule to how you spend your time. After determining what parts of your business offer the best hourly pay rate for you, it’s best to eliminate the 80% of activities that result in only 20% of your income, and focus your energy on the most important and optimized parts. From here, you can use several strategies.
Firstly, you can automate as much of your online work as possible. For affiliate marketers, the primary time-costs are in finding and investigating products to market, monitoring their marketing programs, and analyzing customer behavior on their websites. Thankfully, all three of these activities can be optimized and automated to a specific point.
For finding and investigating products, your best bet is to look for products that are popular, but not ultra-competitive. With the massive range of niche-finding software out there today, this step is about as simple as it can be. Simply invest in a program to take care of your niches for you, and cut those hours out of your timetable.
The second is slightly more difficult. Although computer programs can easily analyze click-through rates and bounce rates, checking out real time marketing performance is slightly more difficult. With numbers alone such false metrics, especially in a world as subjective and human as PR and marketing, you may need to invest some time yourself in seeing which of your marketing and advertising efforts work, and which don’t.
Finally, monitoring and analyzing customer behavior is something that every affiliate marketer will need to put some time into, at least in the initial stages of a campaign. Over time, customer behavior will lead to long term trends and behavioral patterns for your websites, which can make it significantly easier to optimize and automate this part of your work. Best suggestion: spend the first months of any campaign monitoring customer browsing habits and clicking behavior, and after it’s reached a steady point, leave it alone. Only investigate when things are falling, not when they’re simply moving as part of a larger trend.

When you delete a file, email, or piece of internet history on your computer, where do you think it goes?
Unfortunately it doesn’t just disappear like many of us would think and hope it does. Every time you use your computer, you’re leaving little footsteps that can be traced back to everything you do. Every word you type, every password you save, and every email that you delete are most likely being saved somewhere on your computer.
To make matters even worse, these little footprints take up valuable hard drive space. Every one that is created will slow down your computer a little bit more, causing more constant crashes and long boot times. Finding these footprints is also almost impossible if you don’t know what you’re doing. Programs can find these without even trying though.
With almost no technological knowledge, a computer user could download a program and retrieve files and emails that you thought you deleted long ago. These pieces of software are a dime a dozen, you never know who could be looking through your history. That means your boss, spouse, or just a friend could search through everything you’ve ever done on your computer; that’s a bit frightening.
The privacy problems with these footprints are very legit. Legal action can be taken against people who haven’t properly cleaned their computers. From divorce to lawsuits, you need to be sure that your computer is being taken care of. Many wives have found incriminating data that their husbands failed to delete properly and have filed for divorce, often taking a lot of money.
One place that the files will store themselves is called the Windows Registry. You can open this program by getting into the run dialogue and executing the command REGEDIT. It is highly recommended you don’t touch anything in this window unless you are absolutely sure you know what you’re doing. You could easily damage or destroy your computer by messing with entries in the Windows Registry.
There is a great report that is available for free named Your Computer Privacy Is At Risk. This report will explain, in depth, what these little footsteps are. It also covers ways to get rid of them, common problems with them, and possible legal action if you don’t get rid of them. You need to find some way to keep your computer secure.
Privacy Controllers are pieces of software that are designed to locate these small footprints in the tiniest corners of your computer and clean them up. There aren’t many of these programs that really work, lots of them use faked numbers to scare the user into buying the software. These are extremely effective weapons in a scammer’s arsenal.
If you like the idea of people (whom you might not even know) going through all of your personal files and emails that you thought you deleted, then don’t download the report. If you want to keep a standard of privacy though, at least look through the report and give it some though; it is free after all.

If you are trying to make money on line, you are most likely using some type of Internet Marketing strategy. There are so many different plans out there it can be mind boggling. There are numerous programs you can purchase that claim to provide strategies that will help you become rich practically overnight. If you buy into these, you could find yourself in a bit of a pickle. Most of these programs are flat out scams, and believe me when I say they will take your money and run. If you are looking to make money on line there are some things you need to be aware of.
The first is to never buy into the millions you could make while you sleep. If you are truly interested in making money on line, know that it will take time and you will not get rich over night. It is sad to say that many people give up trying to make money; in fact about 99% of the people who try to make money on the internet throw in the towel. This is most often because they have bought into some bogus scam and have lost faith in their abilities. Don’t let this happen to you.
Second, know that there actually are programs and legit business opportunities available to you. If you are in the market to truly put forth some effort and make money on the internet, you should research and find a program to purchase that will actually assist you in generating an income.
There are some key things that you should look for in such a program. You will want to make sure that whatever your purchase will give you step by step ins and outs of building a successful business. Make sure the program guides you on how to grow your business, and how to build your profit margin.
Once you have found a money making program that you think might be right for you, don’t purchase it just yet. First, find others who have tried it. Find out if they were successful. Find out what their pitfalls were and how to avoid them. Make sure that you have found numerous successful individuals, not just a couple.
Finally, before purchasing such a program make sure it has a money back guarantee. If it doesn’t, then look elsewhere. If the company does not believe in their product enough to offer customers this simple assurance, then you should not believe in it either. It is really that simple. When it comes right down to it one product does not fit all. What works great for some people, simply will not work for others. Always make sure you have the security of a refund just in case you find the money making program is not right for you.
In conclusion there are a number of great ways to make money on the internet; you just need to be cautious about the one you chose. To get even more information that will guide you to success you will want to read this free report.

I was checking out some blog posts this morning and ran across one that was talking about a product called Accelerated List Building.
Sounded interesting!
I don’t know about you, but I am always open for new ways to improve my listbuilding. This is an area that everyone should be interested in. It doesn’t matter if you are online or offline this is a skill that everyone needs to be good at. Your customers are the core of your business
I went ahead and took a look at the sales page for Accelerated List Building and was even more impressed. First of all this report was only $10. Second, this kid (and at 19 he is a kid to me, although a very smart one) had some ideas that I had not even thought of.
Well, long story short, that was enough for me. I went ahead and bought the Accelerated List Building report right there on the spot.
And boy am I glad that I did!
First of all on page 5 James goes into how he was able to go from a 40% confirmation email acceptance to 85%. He did it by offering a bonus if you confirm your email address. This one little tip is worth more than the $10 to me and could literally make me thousands over time.
BTW: If you pick up his Accelerated List Building report you will see this in action and get the free bonus (which was well worth it).
James also covers 6 different traffic strategies (some of which I had not considered) for getting traffic to your opt-in pages and covers them in great detail.
This report was well worth the small price of $10 that I paid for it. One added bonus that you receive with this report is a smaller checklist called ‘The 5 Day Plan’. I would have paid the $10 and more just to get this report as it takes you through each step in a 5 day process and shows you exactly what to do on each day.
At least check it out and if you do purchase a copy of Accelerated List Building, please let me know what you think.
I personally think you will love it, but I want to make sure because I do value your opinion, whether good or bad.
