The SBI Experiment

I found out that Alexa.com is the best site to find out the top sites according to niche. So I chose Top Sites > Business > Subcategory: Internet Marketing > Related Category: E-Commerce.

WHAT DID YOU SEE? SiteSell.com that's what you should see.

So I thought about it, ok since this is the TOP SITE for online business, why not try it out? So I registered and boy, was I amazed at what it offers...an ACTUAL STEP BY STEP PLAN on how to make your own online business! I'm curious and skeptical, that's why I'm here today, making a new Blog and creating a new post. I'm following SBI's step by step instructions on how to get rich. So join me in my SBI Affiliate Experiment and...

lets see if I will MAKE it or BREAK it?

c. READY

i. goal setting - hit Php 100,000 a month or $2,222 a month within year 2010.8 hours a day, 5 days a week work on SBI.

ii. know your customer - online business newbies like me.who has no idea how to start making money online business. dads that want to have more time for their kids at home. dads that want to quit working and start a business but cant because they have no idea what business to start, how to do it.dads that knows what businesss to start, how to do it but dont have the starting capital to fund it.work at home dads like me that has an online job, but since it is a job it has no security unlike having your own business.

d. GET SET

i. build a website - i dont have the money to build a website, i have $29 but that is Php 1,305 a month. still have bills to pay.so i'll just use blogger.com, all other blog sites. i learned to use this with one of my online clients, my job is to do Linkbuilding i just learned how to do it this month Feb 2010.

WORK AT HOME DADS! there's no niche like that yet only WHAMs or work at home moms.

ii. build traffic to your website - "They seek what you know. Give it to them. Convert your knowledge into in-demand Content."

ummm, well i guess this is my content...how to follow sbi steps and a little bit of what i learned in link building. seems like there's no free guide...WRONG! there is! just found it, the ebook is HERE!

now if you are not a good writer, just like me, you can also read ebook, its a freebie.

iii. develop a theme (a Site concept) - "Do you have a particular skill (cartoonist, fitness trainer, copywriter) or passion/knowledge (Siamese cats, chocolate, premium coffees, mountain climbing or sports cars, favorite city or Caribbean island, etc.)? Convert that into a Web site -- the content attracts interested visitors, who in turn generate profits for your new business."

i got skills! im GOOD in Filipino Martial Arts! I teach it! I have a website! A free website! http://mkcebu.webs.com - now how does the content attract visitors?oops yeah, i don't have content yet...

Well, i guess i better read those 2 ebooks and apply what they teach. till then.

(this post was haphazardly done. its already 5:15 am, im sleepy.i'll get back to it next week)

Get Paid

The common problem with the Millions of Affiliate programs is the payout for non-American affiliates. Most Affiliate programs send your payouts via checks and this needs a valid U.S. address. Yes, they do send checks for non-US addresses but it will take weeks even months for your checks to arrive.

The best solution for this is to join Affiliate programs that support online payouts. The TOP 3 online payout providers in my experience are: Moneybookers, Payoneer and Paypal. I have experience with them when I was wroking in oDesk.com. I used this online payment processors and had and will always have great experience with them.

Paypal sends your payment from your Affiliate Program to your registered email. You can then transfer the money to your credit card (instantaneous) or registered bank account (2 to 4 days). Paypal is available in 190 markets and 18 currencies around the world. For more information and to create an account, please click the banner below.

Moneybookers just needs your email address to send your payments online-in real time! After receiving your payment from your Affilate program, you can send the money to your registered bank account. The money will then be in your bank within 2 to 4 days. You can also send the money to your credit card instantaneously. For more information please visit the site and create your account. Please click the banner below.

Payoneer pays you directly to your Payoneer Prepaid MasterCard. You will need to sign up with an Affiliate Program that supports payoneer, you will be given the Payoneer debit card, which will be shipped to your address. This would take 3 weeks to a month. However, when you receive your card, payment will be much faster. When your Affiliate Program pays you thru Payoneer, you can have the money within 2 hours.
