TGIF


Well, I completed another three courses this evening.


Affiliate Marketing has been an online business for the last 14 years. It is based on "referral marketing". It is governed by local, state and federal authorities. This is a great business for the retired person to use to supplement Social Security and retirement benefits. You decide how much you want to accomplish and limit yourself to that. I don't know personally yet but I am told that it can be much more lucrative if more time and energy is applied. Therefore, after age 66, in my case, I can really go for it. My attitude is: why wait. If I made enough to negate all of my social security payments then I guess I would be a happy camper. That would mean that I could earn $14, 160 before it started cutting into my benefits. Without becoming too factual, I could then earn in excess of another $25,000, bringing the total to nearly $40,000 for the year. That's enough incentive for me to continue my studies over the weekend.

You have a good weekend.....I'll post again on Monday

Affiliate Marketing Course Makeup


Today, I got my act together! I spent nearly five hours studying and taking tests to confirm I comprehend the material. I completed five courses today, making up for my lack of production yesterday. I am back on schedule. I have now completed 44% of the 300% necessary to finish the course.


When I placed the banner ad to the left, I had no knowledge that the course registration was closed. If you scroll down and enter your email address, you will be notified when it opens again.

I have discovered in the last few days, that a lot of the business of Affiliate Marketing can be accomplished without any expense, other than time. This is good news, since I am trying to return to, or exceed my previous financial status.

I seem to be at the top of the rankings for "my retirement project" on Google. I checked Yahoo today and couldn't find anything! What's up with that?

I ping the blog each time I add new content. If you have a blog, you can do the same for free at: King Ping........www.kping.com.

Until tomorrow...........take care...................

Affiliate Marketing.....Day Two

Today, I went back and reviewed some of what I had learned yesterday. As mentioned yesterday, when writing that post, I was taking a break from the "Finding Products" course. I went back, completed it and then took the test and passed. Then today, I completed a course known as Traffic Basics: Types of Traffic. I had expected to complete two more courses today, but got sidetracked! I took the test and confirmed that I had passed the Traffic Basics course.

Today, I probably spent about an hour studying. Yesterday, as mentioned, I was there for more than five hours. Thus far, I have completed 12% of the 300% of the course!! Obviously, to finish in March, more time needs to be expended.

Check back tomorrow for the next post...........

Affiliate Marketing

I have decided to continue in my education of Affiliate Marketing on the Internet. Today I have studied and passed tests confirming my understanding of monetization: earning commissions and Email ethics and SPAM legislation. I'm taking a little break by writing this while completing Finding Products. I have committed about 5 hours so far today to studying. The "Plan" is to complete the entire course by the end of March.

Although I am receiving SSN payments, I still need additional funds to continue my lifestyle as it has been for the past 15 years.

The blog, http://boomer-help.blogspot.com contains information pertaining to Social Security. Like this blog, it is also affiliated with www.my-retirement-project.com.

Back tomorrow..............
