Many people claim that you do not need to know html to build a website.I strongly agree with that. You can use software like front page which make your job very much easier than it used to be. Some web hosting provider also give free service for site builder where you can build your website online. Some might post extra charge for it. However I highly suggest that you learn the basic of html.
One main reason is it is very easy to learn basic html. You don't have to be very smart to understand that. For me, it is just a matter of using logic. There are a lot of free tutorials in the internet, just search at google or yahoo. Sometimes the html editor might not give what you want and you might need to check up the html code. Learning html also will help you for maintenance of the website. So, always try to learn basic html. I repeat - basic html. Not the advanced html for IT students.
If you want to build a major website with professional interface, consider buying the website template. Or you can hire a website designer. But I don't bother to find website designer. I only create a simple landing page with some simple information and email capturing from for autoresponder. You can create your own landing page or try to get a squeeze page. A squeeze page is a ready-made landing page. You just need to edit a little bit using html editor according to your own need.
I use nvu software to edit the squeeze page. I don' have the link for you to download. Later I will put the link in this post.Please check out later to find out. I found a great website for you to learn everything about website from a to z.Click the link below:

Where To Get Website Domain?
For some reasons it is very necessary for you to have your own website.You need to invest some money but the benefit you'll get from having your own website is enormous.From my previous experience,it is not so effective to promote the affiliate link using PPC advertising (google adwords).We need to have a landing page (our own website).From there we can get visitors email using autoresponder.
The best place to get a website domain is godaddy.com.Don't invest your money on buying an exclusive domain like onlinebusiness.com or webmaster.com.Just choose a more specific domain relevant to your niche market.It can be something like www.tocreatewebsite.com or www.malaysiatravelguide.com.
The next step is to buy a webhosting account.To have a domain name without a webhosting is like having a telephone without service from the telephone company.You need to have both to make it working.You can buy at hostgator.com. Better to buy the baby plan since you can host unlimited domains for just one hosting account.
I assumed that you know the basic thing that you need to do.. to buy the domain or to sign up for hosting account.I don't need to cover that here.

Residual Income
When looking for affiliate program, i always find those that can give me recurring income every month. Normally people will get commission on a certain month depending on the number of purchase made by the customer. Let's say this month you sell a laptop and you get the commission.But for the next month you are not able to sell any laptops.So you'll get nothing for the next month.That's mean your activity for this month will not benefit you for the next time.
Then consider another story..You choose to be an affiliate for a web hosting company.You promote the service and a customer buy the web hosting package from the company.The customer has to pay a monthly fee for the web hosting service.You'll get commission for this month AND also for every months onwards as long as the customer remains to use the service.Even when you don't do your job next month you'll still got commission.Can you see the different now?
This is just my personal view. There are lot of online marketers who can free them from financial problem just by joining typical affiliate program.For me, i just want to make my job easier and faster.I has set up my plan on this kind of affiliate program and hope to achieve the dream of passive residual income later in life.May be you have your own view-kindly leave your comment.Thank you.

Word Of Courage
People sometimes get involve in online marketing because they think they can do it. They want to make money so fast.They make few steps ahead then realize that they fail to get what is so-called 'easy money' or 'passive income'.
It's true that many could be in that position where they got passive income.people get motivated from their story but not so many knows what they did to achieve that.How much they sacrificed time, money and energy to be successful-people don't really bother about that.As for me, the story behind the GREAT story is much more valuable.
Once you become an online marketer, don't think about giving up. trust in yourself. be PERSISTENCE as there is no such thing as permanent failure. the TEMPORARY failures at the beginning are just part of the game. but still many people cannot overcome those 'failures'.
Plan your work. then do it and do it... again and again. change your plan only when necessary.hope this short post can help you..

What is paypal?
As an online marketer you should know about Paypal. What is it? You can get more info by visiting their website.
www.paypal.com. basically it is a safer way for you to buy stuffs online. no need to expose your credit card no but using the paypal id instead.
there are so many website that accept payment from paypal. you can have you paypal account for free but to verify the account you need to link a credit/debit card to your paypal account.I used my nexg prepaid mastercard to verify mine.

Click Bank and Commission Junction

May be most of you already heard about CB before.I think it's more popular compare to CJ. So what so special about CB? The products. You'll not find any physical products. All is digital such as ebook and software. People like to buy this kind of products online as they can get it almost instantly after payment.
It's free to sign up with CBT he problem is that CB is not available for Malaysians. However, there's a way how to solve that which involve a certain amount of money.if you want to learn further you can buy the ebook Chapter M.
CJ is available for Malaysians. You can find a lot more products inside CJ as it is not limited to digital products. You can sign up free.but i'm not so familiar with CJ.It seems like CJ doesn't have more popularity compare to CJ. I'll update this post later when i find out more about it.

How I got my Nexg Prepaid Mstercard
on 17 Feb 2008, I went to Ambank branch at Berjaya Times Square.There was a chinese staff sitting at the query table. I asked for Ambank Nexg Prepaid Mastercard but it was not available there.She said they only have Ambank Nexg iTalk - Combination of Prepaid Mastercard and iTalk. I thought it was just ok to have iTalk inside it also. May be i need it later. So, i bought the starter pack for RM30 with RM10 credit for iTalk.There was also RM 50 starter pack with RM 30 iTalk credit.
while I filled out a form, she asked for my IC and photocopied it. After everything was done, she told me to wait for 5 working days and then call the customer service centre for activation.On 22 feb, i called the service centre but the operator said i have to wait for another 2 working days.
I called again on 27 feb but all the operators were busy that morning.To assure the card was active, i went to ambank branch at Kota Bharu and toped up RM 250 into the card. The deposit machine recognize my nexg card. So, i assumed it was already active.That night i used it to buy a domain and web hosting service with iPowerWeb. It worked!! Here is the domain (www.afjunktion.com*)
*If you want to join Affiliate Junktion you need to buy a domain and web hosting service with ipowerweb.

No credit card? No worry
To register with google adwords, you need to have a credit card. You will also need it when you want to buy a website or any other ebooks that will help you in your business.
However, not all of us afford to have one.It is too risky also.We don't want to get in debt with credit card company.So, the best alternative is to use debit card or prepaid card (not to top up your mobile credit, hehe). Both can be used like credit card but the different is that you have to pay first before you can use it.For credit card, you use first then you pay later.
Where to get the card?
Remember, we want the card can be used for online payment.BSN Matrix card, for example, is an atm + debit card but it cannot be used online.Initially i tried to use al-rajhi debit card because people find it good. I open an account with al-rajhi bank and got the card on spot! I was so happy.Later, i found out that it is not so flexible. May be i'll try to tell this story later.Let's go straight to the point.
Disappointed with al-rajhi, i made more research on two other popular cards- Public Bank debit card and ambank nexg prepaid mastercard.I wanted to have the card as soon as possible, so i chose ambank nexg prepaid mastercard.It's fast and easy to get.Just go to the nearest ambank branch and get the starter pack for just RM30.

I got the card after 2 weeks waiting for activation.Honestly i will say public bank debit card is better but you'll need at least one month to get the card.

You can guest just by look at the meaning of the term "pay-per-click".You have to pay certain amount of money for every click that you get.If people don't click at your ad, you don't have to pay. That's the rule.
You ad will appear as sponsored link in google search results.You can see it now.Go to google.com, search for "fishing".When the results come out you will see a sponsored link area on top and on right of the page.That's where your ad will appear.

Let me ask you one question.Do you think you'll make more sales selling a medical book to engineering students? Even if you manage to promote the product to thousands of people,they won't buy if they are not interested.So you need to find your target group!!
Back to our affiliate program.Our product is friendblasterPro.A software which is used in myspace to add many friends automatically into myspace account.Now you might be thinking who is interested to buy the software.Got the answer?? Yes,absolutely correct.Our target group should be myspace users.Now you can create your myspace account and start promoting friendblasterPro.(You can download the free trial of the software and send message or friend request,but limited to 50 per day only).
Friendster , myspace or any other free internet community is a good way to promote for FREE.But make sure you really involve in the forum or egroup because people have more trust with people they 'know'.Don't just join a forum, leave your advertisement (ad) and forget about it.Waste of time.

Affiliate-The Concept
It is the affiliate program which allows almost anybody to start their online business almost instantly with minimal cost.You don't need to have your own product, no need to process orders from customers.Your main job is to PROMOTE the stuffs.Read the example below carefully:
Let's say Company X is selling an ebook. This company provides affiliate program for free to increase the sales.One day, you visit the company's website.Then, you decide to be an affiliate for this company.You click the 'sign up' link and complete the process.Now you're already an affiliate for Company X!
Company X provides you an unique link: eg: www.ebook.com/?aid=1234.(1234 is your id). Other affiliates will also have their own unique link.
Without wasting more time, you start to PROMOTE the link.You motivate the visitors/internet users to buy the ebook and provide them your unique link.A visitor feel interested and click your unique link to buy the ebook from Company X. After the purchase is successful, the company will pay you commission. They know you've done your job because the buyer has made a purchase through your link.
That's it!! So now you know how affiliate program works. You promote, people buy and you earn commission.

Life is Sharing
This blog is about sharing.I'm going to share with you my journey in online business.At the moment i still consider myself as a newbie after 3 months of learning.But I'm sure I can teach or lead another newbie with what i have now.
I know there are many websites that promote a handbook for a particular price.Even I start my journey with a simple ebook which describes the most basic steps to earn money online-Tidak Perlu Kerja*.It's good to have one but make sure you choose the right one.The ebook Tidak Perlu Kerja is very basic and it's not too much to say that it is just an introduction to online business.There are so much more to learn beyond the book and i hope that this blog will provide you additional information.
However, I will still try to cover the basic steps, in case you are totally have no idea about online business.
*It is no longer sold online. I bought this ebook for RM40 and I have the resell right to sell the ebook on my own price.I'll sell it just for RM 20.Contact me if you want to have a copy of it.
