If you have been reading my blog for any length of time you will know that I don`t have time for any “fluff and hype” and this post will be no different. Everything which I tell you or give you advice about I have done it myself.
Before we get into the meat of the stuff I`m about to share with you though I first want to make a few things clear.
One of the main things which I always try to emphasize both on my blog and to my subscribers is your main goal should be to build a stable and sustainable online business which will not only stand the test of time but will also still work when your not at your computer because of the way you have set your business up ie: your system.
This is vital if you want to be able to create a full time stable income online while creating more free time for yourself at the same time.
Now that being said, today I`m going to share with you one of the ways which I used to use to make fast money online.
Yes, there are actually fast ways to make money online
However….
The strategy which I`m about to teach you is NOT a business building strategy.
It is merely a fast income strategy which you can set up and be making money in a matter of days.
So please take this for what it is (a quick money maker) not solid methods for building a business.
So why am I showing you this?
Well, I know that when I came online over 4 years ago I of course wanted to start making some cash online fast to see if this Internet Marketing stuff really worked and not only that I just wanted to get stuck in doing stuff.
So although building a real online business should be your main focus these following make money strategies are ideal if you just want to get your feet wet so to speak in Internet Marketing without having to buy any expensive tools or get into anything which requires a lot of technical knowledge.
Also you may already be making a little bit of income online but need some more solid ideas how to generate more cash flow into your business and if that is the case then this strategy is a great method to include as an extra income stream.
By using this method your not going to suddenly start making $10k a month in 2 months but at the same time you won`t have to wait 6 months before you see any commissions either.
I have used this actual method to make money in the past and I can say that it works really well. It does take some work the same as anything but once you take action and get focused, things will start to become easier and you will start to see those affiliate commissions roll in.
Oh and in case you were wondering, you don`t need a website which makes things even easier to set up.
Are you ready?
Ok, let`s dive in
Clickbank Sniper Method
This method is the one that I used which got me my first ever clickbank sale woohoo! As you can probably imagine I was pretty excited at the time because not only did I prove to myself that this Internet Marketing stuff actually worked but the way which I generated the sale would be a great lesson which would help me years down the line.
The way which the clickbank sniper method works is we are going to use websites which already have lots of ranking power and also hundreds of thousands of links already and sometimes millions to get us at the top of google and get in front of lazer targeted traffic with there credit cards in hand.
We are going to be using web 2.0 properties.
You see when you set a normal website or blog up it can take weeks before you even start to rank which is ok but if you really want to fast track this process then web 2.0 sites are the way to go. The downside is you don`t actually own your website but if you set up enough of these web 2.0 properties you will have commissions coming in from numerous offers.
Also if you were to send lots of back links to a new site then you stand a good chance of it getting slapped by google and possibly sandboxed. If you send lots of links to a web 2.0 property on the other hand it won`t be effected because these sites already have hundreds of thousands of links and sometimes millions as I said earlier.
Here are some web 2.0 sites which work well:
weebly.com
typepad.com
livejournal.com
tumblr.com
squidoo.com
xanga.com
jimdo.com
wetpaint.com
zimbio.com
quizilla.teennick.com
We are going to be promoting very popular clickbank products.
Yes you heard that right, very very popular clickbank products, you know the ones like truth about abs, fat burning furnace, get my ex back etc
The more competition the better 
Now, I can see you frowning!
I know your probably thinking “well how on earth will I rank a web 2.0 property at the top of google for lazer targeted traffic in these ultra competitive niches?
Well, you do it with a twist.
I did this exact method and it worked like gangbusters for quick profits.
Rather than go after all the highly competitive keyword phrazes like “truth about abs review” or fat burning furnace review” we drill down even further and get traffic which is even more lazer targeted.
“It`s like taking candy from a baby”
All you do is simply add the word “buy” in front of the product so it will be “buy fat burning furnace” or “buy truth about abs”
You can also add other buying keywords in front too such as purchase or discount but buy has worked awesome for me.
The reason why this method works so well is because you are going after highly competitive product keywords that will also have some search volume with the word “buy” before the product name but have hardly any competition. Any clickbank product which is not a best seller would not have enough searches with the word “buy” before it so this is why we go after the most popular products on clickbank.
Once you have picked a product from clickbank to promote you basically just start to create accounts using the word “buy YOUR POPULAR CLICKBANK PRODUCT” at all the web 2.0 sites.
You need to optimize the accounts around that main keyword and then when you create content for the site you should include an image and link the image with your clickbank affiliate link.
I also put some text links in there too.
Make sure you use unique content on every web 2.0 property which you use because your going to be ranking these sites in google so if you don`t have unique content you will be struggling from day 1.
It doesn`t just stop at web 2.0 sites though. You can be a bit creative and even use videos to promote your links. You can make a quick 30 second video and use a domain name and redirect it to your affiliate link when someone visits the website.
Using this method I was generating around 1 sale in every 4 to 6 hops (clicks on my link) which is a pretty insane conversion. The reason is because this is the most targeted traffic you can get online. If someone puts buy in front of there product search term they are going to buy no matter who gives them the link.
I was just searching through google and my web 2.0 site which I created 3 years ago is still actually live and ranking on the 2nd page of google along with a video I created too lol. Crazy huh! Check out the page Click Here
While I was using this method I was seeing between 2 – 4 sales a week just from the fat burning furnace product so if you scale this model up and go into lots of other products you can really start to make a lot more.
Getting your web 2.0 Site Ranked
This is not going to be that difficult because for starters the competition is very low for those keywords and also your web 2.0 property will already have some good ranking power. Sometimes you can rank without doing anything and other times you may just need to shoot some back links to it to give it a bit of boost.
Don`t over complicate the back linking. All you need to do is use some social bookmarking and maybe a couple of fiverr gigs if you really want to push it but a lot of the time some social bookmarking will do wonders.
Another thing I always do after I have published a new web 2.0 site is I ping it using a ping service such as Pingler and it`s Free too
Well that`s exactly how this method works. It`s pretty simple but more importantly it works.
The most important thing that you should remember is you must keep taking action. This is why so many people fail to make anything online because they talk themselves out of taking action or life gets in the way.
There is no better time to start creating an income online. Who cares if you make mistakes or if you do it wrong or it doesn`t work out, big deal. If I told you how many mistakes I have made in the last 4 and a half years and what I did wrong you would laugh
But that`s how we learn.
Hope you enjoyed the post and please share below
Hi Paul,
Would this work with a cpa health free trial offer product?
also do you have any suggestions how to do this?
cool method by the way and do you know anyone else that is using your method?
Sue
Hi Sue
Yes you could use this with any cpa offers too.
You just have to think outside the box
Hello Paul,
Our of curiosity, do I have to check the keyword search volume for “buy Your Product Name” before you determine if the product is worthing marketing. Or it doesn’t matter, just add “buy” in front of any products that are very popular
Thank you in advance.
Chee
Hi Chee
It’s always safe to check the google keyword tool just in case but generally
you can tell quite easily if a particular product is popular and has been around for a while
The keyword tools are obviously never 100% accurate so I only ever use them as a guide
If you were to choose any of the top 10 – 25 products on clickbank they will all have
demand for the buy product name keyword
Hope this helps
Great articles to real life action! I wonder why I’m just knowing your blog.
Is it working in 2013 though?
Paul,
How are you?
Great post! And I like the blog a lot! I’m new to the IM world and I’m going to follow your advice on to focus on just one strategy which will be this Sniper CB way. As oppose to the web 2.0 articles you could also use you tube to help drive traffic? Just wondering what your thoughts were on you tube and what are some factors to consider when using you tube. Thanks in advance Paul.
Hey
I`m good thanks
Yes you can also use youtube too, I give you proven methods here but there is not reason why
you can`t put your own spin on things as well
Youtube is great for driving traffic but it`s the same as most other things, don`t put all your effort into it and diverse your traffic efforts
If you want to get your videos ranked higher then a few fiverr gigs can push them to the top
Thanks for stopping by
Paul
Hi Paul,
I did setup several Squidoo lenses targeting several top ClickBank products. They have been out there for a few weeks now, I also pinged them but they have been sitting at almost 1.7 million rank and have gotten not one visit at all…. not sure what next.
Did anyone else have success with this?
Hey Paul,
I really like this method to get sales; I have found that there are a few other buying keywords that make a term pretty easy to rank for such as review, purchase, best, cheap. I personally like review as it presents an opportunity to show the visitor alternative products if the main product that you are promoting isn’t a good fit for them.
hi paul
yeah there are lots of other keywords which you can include but the whole reason why you should only be using the word “buy” is because any other keywords such as “review” will be way too competitive to rank for
for example
if you tried to rank for “truth about abs review”
there is a tonne of competition and it will take a lot of work
however, using keywords such as “buy truth about abs” the competition is much lower and the traffic is also super lazer targeted
talk again soon
paul
Great tips thanks a lot.
I hope it still works these days but that the second times of the week I read something like this that mentions using product name reviews and makeing a review with videos and web2.0 stuff…. so it might be somthing good!
How many reviews had you online and how much were you doing at the time if you dont mind ssaying?
Thanks.
Tim
Hi tim
yeah using the actual product name gives you killer conversions this is why it`s
so popular
when i was using this method a fair but i was making about $80 – $130 per week through click bank with only a couple of products
my conversions were around 1 in 4 or 5 so like a 20% conversion which is pretty awesome for affiliate marketing
it really is a numbers game though so don`t always just expect to upload a couple and make good money, i t might take a few more or it might only take you a couple the same as me
paul
Well, I tried Squidoo but I’ve not been able to write a review….they say it’s forbidden!
I’ll try on blogger maybe it’ll work!
Thanks for this info Paul,
Might just have to give it a shot as some quick cash would be nice, cheers
hey sue
its a cool little method that you can add to your income streams
don`t spend all your time on it though but it`s good for making some extra income for sure
let me know how you get on
paul
As a newbie, and technically challenged as well, it has taken me about 18 months to get a couple of basic websites up and running.
One of my biggest obstacles has been the fear of “pressing the wrong button” and messing something up to the point of not being able to fix it.
Needless to say, I haven’t yet earned my first IM dollar.
Your tip about web 2.0 sites might be just what I need. Something I can play around with without the worry of “breaking” it.
What web 2.0 property in the list you provided, would be the best for someone like me who is not too flash on the technical side?
Cheers, leon

hi leon
yeah using this method you have the luxury of not having to worry if you create a terrible website because they are all free to create anyway
best thing to do is just jump right in and start working and taking action. Believe me once you take action and keep taking action over a couple of months you will be ahead of 99% of others out there
i personally like zimbio and quizilla as they used to rank really well
i would create articles on as many web 2.0 sites as you can, the more you have the more chance you have of making sales
paul
HI PAUL , GREAT INFORMATION HERE. WOULD THIS WORK FOR SELLING
AMAZON PRODUCTS ALSO OR WOULD YOU HAVE TO DO THIS ANOTHER
WAY TO WORK?
hey david
yeah absolutely
this technique would work with pretty much anything
the key with it being effective is only targeting lazer targeted keywords which may only get like 5 – 10 searches a day but if you get in front of those people you will make sales
if you were to use this for amazon then just make sure you only choose really popular amazon products and do the same, include the word buy at the start of the keyword
you can get really creative using this technique
paul
Hi Paul
Cheers for the heads up on this. I’ve got an account at squidoo and a couple of the other sites mentioned so I’m going to give this a shot. It can’t hurt!
I’ve not really used web 2.0 sites but I’ve heard they can be a really useful tool for generating traffic themselves.

sounds cool tim
like i said its not something you should focus on too much as it`s not building you a long term business however you can quite easily generate a couple of hundred dollars a week with a bit of effort
web 2.0 sites do have there place, usually for feeder sites or for doing what I have mentioned in the post
take it easy
paul
Cheers Paul. I’ll test that out method this week. I could do with a cash injection
